“Damica is trustworthy and excellent with my pup. Kya has come home tired and happy from daycare both times I have picked her up, which is exactly what I wanted! Damica is quick to respond and provides updated videos/photos throughout the day so I can see what Kya is up to. Will definitely rehire.”


“Polar B always has the best time with Mariah and her pups. She is always willing to chat with me about training methods, behavior, and everything else dog related. We switched to in home doggy daycare as most places were way too big. I no longer worry about Polar B getting sick or worrying about other dogs’ behavior as Mariah always keeps a close eye on them. Couldn’t recommend more !”


“Great doggy sitter. Our 2 loved staying with Veronica and Ella. She sent pics and a video while they were there. Ella and LuLu the 2 doodles had so much fun playing in the backyard in the snow. Gia enjoyed the sunshine and the snow. I would trust Veronica to take care of our pups when we are in St Louis again.”



“Ruthie was great with my deaf little puppy. He is afraid of other dogs but she was sweet and patient and he accepted the others. Her dog Ginger is the sweetest little cuties! Will book again!”

About: With years of dog mom experience and fostering for local rescues, I can honestly say dogs are my first love. I have two rescued senior dogs, Pork Chop, a Jack Russell terrier and Trudy a “super sized” dachshund who are the loves of my life. They are the “golden girls” of the neighborhood and adore other dogs. They have helped many of my fosters overcome separation anxiety and are always happy to meet new pups. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand that much like humans, they all have wildly different personalities. Their safety and well being are my greatest priorities so please share as much info as you can regarding triggers, food restrictions, resource guarding or anything else that makes them unique. ⚡️☔️ If your pet has triggers, not a problem! I’m well practiced in handling those unpredictable moments, keeping your baby safe and relaxed indoors and on walks. 💊 If your dog or cat needs meds, don’t fret! I’ve cared for animals in varying stages of health and have tons of experience in how to administer meds to even the snootiest of snoots. 🍗 Is your dog a trash eater? Fear not, so are mine! My years of being a dog mom have created a 6th sense for knowing when our fuzzy toddlers are about to grab a “street treat.” 🐱 And let’s not forget kitties, they are my favorite people too! I grew up around cats and care for a few neighbor kitties so I’m familiar with all the quirks that make them lovable. Special feeding requests and litter box cleanings are not a bother so you can feel confident your feline friend will be kept well fed and tidy. ⏰ Most of my availability is between 9am and 9 pm but please check with me as I will always do my best accommodate if you need an earlier or later walk. Boarding is case by case since I already have two dogs. A preliminary meet and greet is required to be sure everyone gets along. Also, I can only board dogs up to 25 pounds. My home is a calm, safe environment where dogs are free to lounge, play and be themselves. If your dog likes to be free or needs some crate time just let me know, I understand how important it is to follow these instructions. Changing wee wee pads is never an issue, just leave the fresh ones out and I’m at your service! As for Covid-19 safety there’s no reason to worry, I’m fully vaccinated/ boosted and always masked. Plus, I travel in my own car, avoiding public transportation so you can feel at ease when I enter your home. I’m also happy to remove my shoes, wash pet bowls and clean surfaces during feeding times :) Hope you enjoy the photo gallery of all the fur babes in my orbit 🪐

“We were on a road trip across country and we really wanted to take our daughter to the Saint Louis Zoo as we were passing through, but obviously couldn’t leave the dogs in the car while we did that. We found Kyle last minute on Rover and he was great! Communication was super good and it was easy to just drop the dogs off with him. You could tell the they were well taken care of while we were out seeing the town. I would highly recommend Kyle if you ever need a dog sitter.”


“Mandy made Theo feel so welcome and sent cute pics of the doggies enjoying each other's company. Very glad to have found a place where Theo feels comfortable.”


About: I’ve grown up with a variety of pets, and love learning their personalities. More than comfortable with wide ranges of ages and can provide medication, activities, and lots of love! I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I can care for pets after the hours of 5pm on weekdays and anytime on the weekends. I am flexible, outside of weekday working hours 8am-5pm. I feed/water, pet/cuddle, clean up after, bathe/groom, walk/play with my pet on a daily basis, depending on the service, I do the same for my clients.

“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!”


“Jacki was so great! Roscoe immediately felt at home and she sent update photos to keep me in the loop. Fae, her dog, was so sweet and was immediately Roscoe's buddy. Will definitely use her again!”


About: I grew up in a family that considered our pets members of our family! Dogs big and small, multiple cats, critters, puppies, kittens, senior and special needs pets - I’ve taken care of them all. I specialize in keeping their schedule as normal as possible for them by keeping them busy and happy until you return. Taking care of pets works well for me because have a very flexible work schedule. I work as a substitute teacher and pick my own days to be in the classroom. I also teach Irish dance and music lessons during weekday afternoons at a studio 5min away from my house. So it’s very easy for me to arrange pet care duties around other commitments. My partner also works from his home office and has a flexible work schedule, so there is often at least one adult at home most hours of the day during the week. Having two people available helps keep the pets that stay in our home on a schedule close to their normal routines. Our house is a corner lot with a 6ft wooden enclosed fence yard. We only let dogs out in the yard off-leash if we are in the yard as well. Otherwise we keep dogs on leashes outside the house. We allow pets full access to the main floor, upstairs rooms and on the furniture as appropriate. We stick to each pet’s feeding and walking schedule as closely as possible. We often offer neighborhood walks throughout each day. We also do trails and paths throughout local parks including Forest Park, Wilmore Park and Tower Grove Park as appropriate.
