Mae is the bomb! I think my animals really like them, and I definitely appreciate their support. They have been caring for my babies for going on 3 weeks, 4 days a week and it’s a godsend for my busy schedule. They are super bubbly and sweet, keep on top of communication, and follow instructions to a T. My neighbors see them all the time and always tell me how much they like Mae and how friendly they are. Plus, they take really good pictures. Highly recommend.

Jacqueline was great with Momo! She was quick to respond to my messages over the holidays and attentive when following Momo’s specific meal routine.

About: Hi! My name is Maria and I live in St. Louis with my dog, Aviva. I love animals and have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats through personal pet ownership as well as petsitting for others. I enjoy providing pets with the attention, exercise, and care they need to feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I am an experienced pet and house sitter with hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including senior pets and animals with special medical needs. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring recovery, and providing post-operative care following surgeries and medical procedures. As a dog owner myself, I walk 3–5 miles daily and am happy to accommodate pets that require longer walks and higher activity levels. I also have experience handling large dogs and managing a variety of temperaments, including reactive pets, as my own dog is a 70-pound reactive dog. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a remote worker, I enjoy having a reason to get out of the house and stay active. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for drop in visits, potty breaks, feedings, and walks during the workday, while also having longer blocks of time available in the mornings before work and in the evenings after work. I walk several miles a day with my own dog, so regular walks and exercise are already an important part of my routine. I always tailor my care to each pet's individual needs and their owner's routine. Whether I am caring for pets in my client's home or providing drop in visits and walks, I prioritize keeping their schedule as consistent as possible. This includes feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, administering medications if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. For dogs, I ensure they receive appropriate exercise, enrichment, and bathroom breaks. For cats, I focus on maintaining a clean litter box and respecting each cat's comfort level and personality.

About: I’ve had cats all my life and currently own two of my own cats. Many of my friends have larger dogs, and have relied on me to help check on them while they are out of town and take them for walks and have play dates. I love all kinds of dogs and cats! I am currently working from home on Mondays and Fridays, but that will change to working from home on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday in the next couple of weeks. My nights are mostly free and am able to be flexible with my schedule. I will make sure your pet is comfortable, well fed and hydrated, and give them the playtime and snuggles they need! I make sure litter boxes and yards are clean and clean up any accidents that may happen.

Emily was great in coming to check-in on Leo a little short notice due to a trip I was on and some changes in plans in who was checking on him. As always Emily was super communicative and helpful 😊 I am so glad she was available to watch him.

This was the first time leaving my baby and I was nervous, but even from the first meet and greet, I knew Lauren would be a great friend to Lucy. She did an amazing job, updating me, connecting with Lucy during her visits and adjusting her schedule to suit our needs. She took the time to prepare Lucy a yummy dinner and play with her favorite toys. Lucy adored her and was happy and healthy during my trip. I’m so glad we had Lauren to help and will definitely be coming back in the future!

About: I've had cats and dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I can bathe dogs and administer meds to both dogs and cats. Ive also had birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and a tortoise. I am fully devoted to taking care of animals fir the time being. My schedule is flexible. I understand plans come up last minute so short notice shouldn't be a problem! I am very interactive with animals as I believe this is how they feel loved. I will tend to any special needs they may have!

About: I have worked at an animal hospital as well as a pet boarding facility. I absolutely adore animals but dogs are my favorite. I have handled all kinds of breeds, sizes, temperaments, etc. I know what to do in most emergency situations and have used my knowledge in both of my roles. I work 8-5 Mon-Friday. I do have an hour for lunch so I would be available to drop in to check on your pup! I am available by all means outside of those hours! I love each dog like my own, making sure to provide lots of love and attention like they deserve. I am able to follow any feeding schedule and try my best to stay on your dogs routine to make them feel as comfortable as possible while their human is gone!

Caitlin was incredible with my senior diabetic cat. She gave her her shots and at the times I asked her to, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was traveling. I will absolutely book her again.

About: I grew up with pets, I have house sat and pet sat since I was 13 and I am the proud mother of a cat. I currently work 3 12 hour shifts per week so I have a lot of open availability which varries week to week, which leaves a lot of free time to care for your pet! I have house sat, babysat, and looked after animals since I was in high school. I am very clean and am an animal loving person. I feel most comfortable in a clean environment. While I will not offer services in my own home ( I am not sure how my cat will interact with your pet) you can rest assured I will treat your home with the care and love of my own.

Brooklyn is always great with my boys. Leaves detailed reviews, cute photos and even cleaned up a little bit of vomit for me. Takes excellent care of them—they seem so happy when she visits!

Niah was a great sitter! She was kind and enthusiastic at the our meet and greet. I knew my cats would be taken great care of and felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Also had some last minute travel changes and was easy to contact and flexible which was appreciated. Would work again with Niah!
