Pet care experience
Growing up I took care of our multiple dogs and cats on our family farm. Fed and bathed them often as they always found a way to get dirty. I currently reside in St. Louis with my fiancé. In the spring we had to say goodbye to our 7 year old Australian Shepard/Corgi pup, Emory, who still had that 6 month old puppy energy. I gave Emory his medicine, fed, and walked him everyday. Emory hated baths but I helped him through them and coaxed him with treats. Recently we adopted a Corgi pup, Luna. She is 6 months old and loves other dogs. I’ve learned a lot about caring for dogs and cats over the years and would love an opportunity to care for yours!
Reviews
Derek, Erin, and Luna are the best! I used to worry so much leaving our girl to travel, but she is so happy and plays so hard with Luna I don’t have to worry about her anymore. They are far and away our favorite Rover family! Thanks for being awesome!
Derek and Erin do a wonderful job repeatedly!
We feel so comfortable leaving Stella with Derek and Erin. She gets lots of play time with their dog Luna and snuggles from them. And we really appreciate the pictures each day!
Derek is great, keeps in touch every day, took great care of our pup for an extended period and we were at ease the whole time. Easy to trust and they can navigate any dogs quirks, trust me, our dog has plenty!

Safety, trust & environment
Dog’s roam free in our home. Safety is always on my mind, so even if your animal doesn't play well with others I have gates that could separate them into different rooms. I also have a large fenced in back yard with plenty of room to play. If allowed I always keep treats on hand so if your pet is feeling shy or timid a treat usually warms them up. I have experience walking a dog who loved to pull as me and my dog used to go for a walk every day. I would love for an opportunity to show your pet the same care I showed my very own.

I go for a walk everyday after I get off and would love to take your pet with me. I am free many weekends morning, day, and night to care for any needs you and your pet may have.
