“Kyani was excellent. Extremely responsive and responsible with our dogs. She was super easy to work with and even helped arrange taking our dogs to boarding at my request. I will absolutely rebook with her next time I need pet care. Very personable and obviously a dog lover.”
“This is my first time using Rover for my senior dog and Keena is wonderful. She has always been on time, takes him for the full time booked and Charlie is happy when she brings him back. I will continue to use her.”

About: I have experience with both dogs and cats, female and male, kittens/puppies being bottle fed, middle aged animals, and seniors taking medication. I also have experience with aggressive cats specifically. My name is Mary by everyone calls me Mae. My pronouns are They/Them. I am looking to earn money through my passions. One of those is helping animals! I am available any time necessary to do checkups on your animal(s)! I make sure their water is always full, that they aren't over or underfed, and that they've had plenty of bathroom breaks, playtime, and cuddles! I'll give them treats if you let me too!
“Meghan, I’m so grateful for you. You came into my home with such calm care, followed every instruction, and treated my fur family with genuine love. You took Arrow for a real walk, made sure everything was secure, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Knowing my home was safe and my dog and cat were so well cared for meant everything to me. I’m looking forward to having you back very soon.”


About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is the level of care, attentiveness, and protection I provide to every dog as if they were my own. I have experience working with young puppies who need patience, structure, and consistency with basic training and routines, as well as senior dogs who require gentle handling, medication management, and close monitoring. Safety is always my top priority I am highly observant on walks, mindful of surroundings, and proactive in preventing any potential risks. I understand canine body language, which helps me anticipate needs and avoid stressful situations. Whether it’s reinforcing positive behaviors, sticking to a detailed feeding schedule, or providing calm companionship for anxious pets, I create a secure and loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and protected. Owners can trust that their pets are not only cared for, but truly looked after with responsibility, awareness, and genuine affection. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially as an incoming medical student with a flexible study schedule. While my classes are structured, I have built-in breaks throughout the day that allow me to step away, reset, and give pets the attention they need. Studying also provides flexibility, since I can organize my time around walks, feeding schedules, play sessions, and check-ins. I value balance and know how important movement and fresh air are, so taking a dog out for a walk or spending time engaging with them fits seamlessly into my day. When I’m studying, pets stay in a safe, calm environment where they can relax comfortably nearby. Being in a rigorous academic program has strengthened my time management skills, responsibility, and attentiveness — qualities that directly translate into providing reliable, consistent, and safe care for every dog I look after. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. In my home, pets stay in a clean, calm, and secure environment with constant supervision, scheduled walks, and plenty of attention. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, exercise, and rest to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all provided instructions, respect the space, and keep pets on their normal schedule to ensure stability. I’m attentive to behavior changes, mindful of surroundings on walks, and proactive about preventing any safety risks, so owners can feel confident their pets are protected and well cared for.
“10/10 stars. We love having Jamie over for our dog. We couldn’t give a better rating. From the beginning he made it clear that our dogs safety and comfort was his main priority. We are glad we have him for Adele. Thanks Jamie.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always try to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so your pets will be cared for like they’re my own. I’m currently in nursing school, but my summer schedule is very manageable and gives me plenty of flexibility for pet sitting. I only have class Monday and Tuesday mornings and Fridays during the day, so I’m very available throughout the rest of the week for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and spending quality time with pets. Outside of class, most of my time is spent studying or doing homework, which allows me to have a flexible routine and dedicate a lot of attention and care to the pets I’m watching. I will offer both drop-in visits and overnight stays in my clients’ homes to help pets feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible while their owners are away. Since I have a very flexible schedule, I’m able to spend plenty of quality time with your pets rather than just stopping by quickly. I truly enjoy caring for animals and will make sure they receive lots of attention, playtime, love, and consistent care so they feel safe and comfortable in their normal environment.
About: I run a 5k every day and can handle large or small dogs. For boarding I have 2 acres of fenced in grass nearby where I run by husky at daily. My experience : I've had dogs in my home since I was 7 and was tasked with their walks and training. I now have a 2yo siberian Husky, Shryko, who I have off-leash trained for hikes and river adventures. So I'm very active, and my dogs have a lot of enriched exploring and exercise. All this with only treats, praise and regular patient consistency. I am a circus artist and entertainer by nights and weekends when the work is available. I spend most week days free at home honing my skill set and arranging bookings. Therefore plenty of time to head out for walks, or break and enrich a dog's day with playtime. I have a fenced in yard and large living room. 1 dog, 8 month 40lb siberian husky girl who loves company and playtime. Also have a large crate if separation is needed.
About: In my house growing up there were many different cats, dogs, guinea pigs, fish, gerbils, and even a tortoise. I also have experience taking care of chickens and pigs. I love pets and I have been missing mine since I moved to St. Louis in August. I work every weekday from 10-645 so I am free after that. My weekends are open. I am totally free on most Saturdays and Sundays. I will make sure that I have all the information I need before I start watching a pet. The client's contact, neighbors contacts, any additional necessary phone numbers, etc. I will make sure I know all I can about the pet before I am left with them.
About: With a nurturing touch and an innate ability to quickly bond with animals, I provide exceptional pet care by treating them as cherished family members. Specializing in both puppy training and senior care, I ensure that each pet receives personalized attention and the highest standard of care. Drawing from my experience of owning multiple dogs since the age of 12, I understand the unique needs and dynamics of canine companionship. After completing my morning workouts, basketball training, and studies, I have plenty of free time throughout the day. I find solace in spending time with pets during these moments of relaxation. It's a genuine joy for me, and I'm always available to make new furry friends whenever the opportunity arises. I create a safe and cozy environment for pets, whether it's at my place or yours. I make sure there are no dangers around and follow your instructions closely. Your furry friend will get all the care they need, so you can relax knowing they're in good hands.
About: I've loved dogs and cats since a young age. As I've grown older, my responsibilities have included feeding, walking, playing and even cleaning up after of various breeds of dogs and cats. I am capable of providing medication and other special care for your pets. I believe pets are family and I will treat your animals as my family. I am a kind, caring individual who will go above and beyond for your furbaby. At this time, I have a full time job, Hence house-sitting for low maintenance animals is primarily what I can provide. I look forward to helping you out Unfortunately, my current living situation prevents me from accommodatimg more dogs or cats. Although, animals in aquariums are welcome and will be treated with love.
About: I have a 5 year old 100lb staffordshire terrier named Kaido that I raised and trained since he was 6 weeks old. I crate trained, house trained, recall trained, socialized, and lead trained him myself. I have also Kaido to help work with other dogs that are not well socialized or have anxiety issues. I am currently working two part time jobs as a research coordinator so I am typically able to be flexible with whatever schedule is requested. While my apartment does not have a fenced yard, I do have a large dog crate if needed and have knowledge of many dog parks and trails in the St Louis area.
“Zaria has walked our dog 3x/week for the past 2 weeks and has been great. Reliable, communicative, and is amazing with our not-very-disciplined 55 pound dog, who loves it when Zaria comes. We will be doing a recurrent booking with Zaria for as long as she’s available! Highly recommend.”

Near North Riverfront dog parents share their Rover experiences
Catelyn stepped in to walk my dog, Princeton Antonio, for a few mornings while our regular walker was away and she made a wonderful impression in such a short time! She was communicative, punctual, and kind, and she treated Princeton with such care and attentiveness. On her last day, she even left a thoughtful thank-you card, which speaks volumes about the kind of person (and professional) she is. Though our time together was brief, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind-hearted dog walker.

Niah has been a wonderful part of Princeton Antonio’s daily routine, and he gets extra excited whenever she arrives! She’s energetic, caring, and incredibly thoughtful. One of the things I appreciate most is how she always sends me sweet photos of Princeton that I can share with my mother in Chicago (who, by the way, adores her St. Louis-based grand-dog). Rain or shine, Niah shows up every evening without fail. Her dependability and connection with Princeton have been incredibly helpful while I've been recovering from a broken ankle. She has my highest recommendation to anyone who needs a dog walker or pet sitter.
