“Nana was a phenomenal sitter! Her dog got along so well with mine and I could tell she was getting lots of attention and playtime because she’d come home and pass out immediately. And I loved the pictures! Would absolutely book with her again.”


“Dogs seemed calm and happy when we picked them up. Jordan was super nice, easy communication, and had a calm energy about him that the dogs responded positively too.”

“Walter and his wife have been so great with my dog! Kenai loves going over there for the day. They have made Kenai a welcome member in their home and even take him out for walks. They’re also understanding of my changing schedule when it comes to early drop offs and different pickup times. I really appreciate them!”

“Keena provided amazing day care for my dog, Jasper. I could tell he how much he liked her right away. Jasper joined Keena and her family for a day full of fun activities. Keena shared so many wonderful photos. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her services again.”

“I’m so grateful for Laura and her family. She was incredibly flexible from start to finish, and my dog is completely worn out—in the best way! Laura gave her all the attention I couldn’t, and I couldn’t be more thankful.”

“Jessica watched our Shih Tzu all day while we went to Our son’s law school graduation. It was first time leaving her with sitter all day. Jessica sent lots of pictures and text updates with really eased my mind a lot!! I would definitely book her again when I return to St Louis !”

“Repeat booking with Madeline. Dogs were happy and calm when I picked them up. Madeline is great with fast communication and flexibility. Thank you we will book again.”

“TzuYu took great care of my dog! She gave very frequent updates & photos of my dog going on walks and playing with her and her dog. We already booked the next visit.”

“Sarah is a great sitter! We initially booked her for boarding and added on day care so our puppy had a chance to get to know Sarah and her son before our trip. She is very flexible and communicative. We have our boarding scheduled soon and will continue to use Sarah in the future!”

“Damica was awesome! She's professional and friendly. She took care of our dog for a few hours and during that time, she kept us up to date with how our puppy was doing. Very much recommend Damica and will definitely use her services the next time we visit St. Louis with Mookie!”

“Nicole and tim sent great pictures in the video. They agreed to help out very last minute. And had an adorable house and yard for josie to hang out in.”

“Laura made sure to keep me updated throughout the day and was so patient with my girl Boston. It’s always nerve wracking leaving your puppy with someone else especially with her visual impairment! Laura was reassuring, kind, and made sure Boston was comfortable, happy, and safe!! Highly recommend and I cannot wait for Boston to go back and hangout🥰”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and will make your dog feel right at home. I treat every pup like my own with tons of love, attention, and playtime. Your dog will also have fun hanging out with my friendly pup, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of pics so you never have to worry! I currently have a very open schedule, which means I’m fully available for drop-in visits, playtime, and walks. I'm happy to work around your pet’s routine. Please note: For doggy day care that extends beyond 8 hours, there is an extra charge of $5 per every additional hour. Safety is super important to me! I have a fully fenced yard where your dog can run around and play safely. I always keep an eye on them during outdoor time to make sure everyone’s having fun and staying secure. I always follow feeding and medication instructions exactly, and ensure pets have fresh water. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, keeping them safe and calm whether we’re on a walk or spending time inside. Please note: I do care for dogs from multiple families at the same time during boarding and daycare. I make sure all dogs are friendly and safe around others, and everyone gets plenty of love and attention. If your dog isn’t comfortable being around other dogs please be mindful before booking with me.
“Shannon and Daniel are great people. Friendly, accommodating and took great care of Sadie. She was very happy when I picked her up and she slept most of the 2.5 hr drive home. They went above and beyond helping me locate a central location to meet my sister and her family to ride together to the Cardinals’ game. I will definitely use them again next time I’m in St Louis.”


“Kelcey was so sweet and super quick to respond. She sent plenty of updates and kept our little Minnie happy! Totally recommend as she has a child who’s great for young pups!”


About: Life long dog owner and lover! Currently have a 2 year old mini dachshund Rue and a 11 year old grandpa mastiff pitt mix Gus. I am a PE teacher off for the summer so I love to get dogs their fulfillment through walks, sniffaris, fetch, or just some much needed attention. I endeavor to love, care for, and spoil your dogs just like I do my own I am a teacher off for the summer who also works at the 2nd shift brewery. I will be available most week days apart from 2 vacations I am taking. My summer schedule is very flexible to meet your needs. I have a fenced backyard and take my own pups on daily walks and would love to care for yours in the same way I do my own.
About: I’ve grown up around animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, pigs, sheep, and cows, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a dog named Sharon, whom I originally fostered along with her five puppies for eight weeks - an experience that gave me plenty of hands on experience caring for puppies and dogs with different needs and personalities. Many of my closest friendships were built around our shared love of dogs, and we’ve regularly helped care for each other’s pets over the years. I’ve hosted dogs in my own home, as well as stayed in clients’ homes to care for elderly dogs who needed extra attention, patience, and comfort. I genuinely enjoy making pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. Currently working from home so I will be a constant presence throughout the day. This also allows me to take your dog for as many walks as needed or any other specific services required. I have one dog who is usually a couch potato and sleeps all day. She is very dog friendly in all aspects. I have a fenced in backyard and a doggy door so they have full access. Toys and treats are available (if allowed)! Happy to follow any and all instructions.

Lauren was amazing with my dog. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. She took great care of Lana and made me feel completely comfortable leaving her in good hands. We also ended up chatting for about 30 minutes, which was a lot of fun. She shared a lot of useful information about St. Louis and the area, which I really appreciated. Thank you, Lauren!

Kellin was absolutely wonderful with my yorkie, Monty, when we needed a last minute sitter for him while we were on vacation! She took excellent care of him and made sure he felt loved and secure in a new environment, which he really needed because he had only been with our family a couple weeks and was still getting used to us as well. I really appreciated that she arranged things so he was never left alone. She also sent pictures and updates throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that he was happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter in St. Louis!

My dog loves staying with Veronica! He's been going here for daycare once or twice a week all summer and communication and scheduling with this sitter has been top notch! When we go by their house on regular walks, my dog gets excited and tries to run up her steps!- so I know he's happy there!
