“Caroline watched my dog for the first time and took such great care of her! She is a senior dog and Caroline makes sure to give her the attention she needs always. Thank you for all the pictures you send!”


“Danielle was fantastic and eased my worries from the start. I had to last minute book her due to a cancellation, and she reassured me every time I had any question or concern. She takes lots of pictures and is always willing to give love to my pups. I was cautious with a new person, but I’m glad I gave Danielle the chance because she is AWESOME!”


“I’m only using Brennan from now on! She takes such great photos for me to see of my babies and is always prompt and so good with my boys! Love her!!”

“Lawrence was great with my pets and super communicative with me while I was out of town, appreciated all of the photos he sent and the time he took to get to know my kiddos!”


“William is awesome! 10/10 recommend. We met prior to the booking to ensure a good fit for all parties. He is communicative, seems to care about my baby, and spent the time to take her on good walks as well as valuable playtime. I looked forward to pictures of Maple along with William’s description of the visit after each one! He had mentioned having a girlfriend in town during our meet & greet, so when he asked if she could join for one of the visits I was thrilled! More love for my girl. And I know had I told him I wasn’t comfortable with that he would have respected my choice, too.”


“Andrea took care of our two cats perfectly! One of our little ones has a dietary restriction and she followed the instructions to the letter to make sure he is well. We came back to two healthy and happy babies, and we could not ask for a better sitter! Thank you, Andrea!”


“Debbie always takes such good care of my two kitties! Always very attentive to detail and sends great pictures. Highly recommended Debbie for all your pet care needs!”


About: I am known as the go-to pet sitter for all of my friends and family! I have worked with everything from tiny 4 week old puppies to senior pets who need assistance walking and require multiple medications. I am comfortable with giant dogs and I have experience with fearful/aggressive animals. I’m an avid hiker and love to stay active, usually with my dogs. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I have a very flexible schedule so I am available to walk or care for your pet at your convenience! I have a reliable car and don’t mind driving! I have a yard with a secure, 6 foot privacy fence and live in a very walkable neighborhood with three parks near my home. If your pet is more comfortable staying home I am available to take care of them there! I’m a fast learner and I’m eager to learn your pet’s routine!

“Maria is amazing! She took plenty of pictures and kept detailed updates so I felt comfortable knowing my pup was in good hands. She followed all directions and was incredibly diligent during our meeting to make sure everything was clear.”


“Jenn has been watching my two dogs for over a year. She is unfailingly on time, has never canceled, and my dogs love her. I can’t recommend her enough.”


About: I’m trying to save up money for vet school, and would love to give your pets the love and attention they deserve while at it! Growing up, I was the main caretaker and trainer for our two family dogs. As a teenager, I had a monopoly on neighborhood pet sitting. Now, I don’t have any dogs or cats of my own (part of why I’m eager to dote on yours). I’ve loved meeting so many new furry friends across St. Louis :) Ive also done volunteer work handling wild animals such as hawks, squirrels, and possums! I’m currently working part time, so I have a decent amount of availability with enough notice! My work schedule can be flexible as well, so I’m happy to work something out with you if we have conflicts 👍 I’m no stranger to cleaning up pet messes. If any accidents happen, I will be sure to leave the spot squeaky clean! I’ve also lived in the neighborhood for 3 years so I know the area well. I’m excited to take your pet on a fun and safe walk, or just give them a comforting lil visit at home.

“Nancy took great care of our two cats. Through the photos we saw how much our cats enjoyed her company. Even our notoriously shy cat warmed up to her! Extremely attentive, caring, and great at communicating.”

Missouri Botanical Garden pet parents share their Rover experiences
Olivia was an excellent sitter for our anxious pup, Tuck. She provided frequent updates and pics and I felt that she respected our home and animals. Tuck gave her 4 paws up (as did the kitties who surprisingly came to interact with her). We will definitely rebook with her again.

I can confirm that Ellen is a certified cat lady. Ellen took the time to meet us and the cats and learn more about them during our meet and greet. She made sure to provide us with updates and photos. I am very happy Ellen was available to watch after our cats. I definitely enjoyed our holiday more knowing that our cats are safe and well cared for by her. Thank you again, Ellen!
