Doggy Day Care in Missouri Botanical Garden, Saint Louis, MO

“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!”

“I met Damica early this morning to drop off Bentley and she was more than welcoming. It seems he really took a liking to her. He acted really well, and she sent me many updates about his day and progress at her home and he did amazing. He was more than ready for bed when we got home…lol I loved it. We will be booking again 100%”

“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.”

“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.”

Ashley F.

“She's pretty great and reliable.”

“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🥰”

“I can’t say enough about how great Lauren was with our puppy. She was so kind and loving to him and he was very well cared for. She was super flexible with our schedule, which I greatly appreciate! I would give her a 10 star review if I could. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”

“Tyler is an exceptional dog caretaker. I have used his services several times and my dog always is excited to see Tyler, Rocky, and Ella, as well as the other dogs Tyler cares for. He is an exceptional communicator and well versed in dog training and needs. I know Bishop will be safe and cared for when in Tyler’s care.”

“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!”

“My dog is shy with most people but she loved Philip right away. He was great to communicate with, available on short notice, consistent and reliable. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years and have experience with dogs of many breeds and personalities. I also have a special-needs pug of my own, which has given me hands-on experience with extra care, patience, and attention to health needs. Because of this, I’m very comfortable following detailed care instructions, monitoring pets closely, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and watch their pets. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already spend a lot of time caring for my own dog. I’m available to accommodate evening walks, and for day sitting I can also provide walks throughout the day depending on your pet’s needs and routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and any special needs so I can provide the best care possible. I closely supervise pets during walks and playtime and always make sure they have fresh water, attention, and a secure space to relax. Communication is also very important to me, so I make sure owners receive updates and photos so they know their pets are happy and doing well.

“My puppy is super anxious (recently adopted) and Ruthie was excellent with her. She gave her extra attention and was very soothing. Highly recommend Ruthie for anyone with a nervous pup.”

“Sharon is fabulous! She provided excellent care for my pup and great communication. We’re looking forward to staying with her again!”

“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!”

“Mariah was so great with our dog, Levi! Her knowledge of dog body language, and behavior combined with her experience training gave us a lot of confidence when leaving our boy in her care. She was super communicative and kind throughout his stay. Afterward, we talked through some training tips and information on Levi specifically which was so helpful. He has some behavioral issues and reactivity and she handled him so well and is helping us to give him a more structured, happy, and calm life. 10/10 would recommend Mariah to anyone looking for a dog sitter or trainer!”

Amanda T.

“So conscientious and caring, we can't say enough about Isa's attentiveness and care. Highly, highly recommended for both locals and travelers. Thank you for taking such good care of Tilda!”

“My dog Taku and I relocated here from Michigan recently. We have no family or friends here in Illinois. I was so stressed and anxious on what I will do with Taku while I’m at work or a long day or long weekend. Taku has separation anxiety where if he’s left alone, he will cry and bark the whole entire time. Then I found Jeena on Rover! She was so accommodating! She allowed Taku and I to come meet her and her cats to see if they all got along, before we booked her for a half day of day care. Taku did really well at her place! He felt comfortable and when I went to pick him up, he was happy and well taken care of. It seemed like he really loved her already and he gave her kisses goodbye! We will definitely be using Jeena again!! We feel so lucky to have found her!!!! Thanks Jeena and Rover!”

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.

“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.”

“Sarah was so great! She answered all of my questions I asked before booking, was super responsive and so sweet with Cooper and sent me pictures and video throughout the day so I knew he was doing good.”
