“This was our second booking with Jordin! The day we left for our trip, our fur baby started not to feel well (skipped his breakfast) and she kept us posted and he ended up being just fine. Our home was the way we left it when we returned and the dogs seemed happy and well cared for. We also plan to re-book with Jordin.”


“Bridget was amazing! I would trust her with my dogs at any time. I have already booked her again and my dogs can’t wait to see her!”


“Very reliable and I could sense Niqo loved having a sitter. I swear when i returned he acted a little full of himself🙄😁. She did a great job sent me updates and pics and was very obliging with my short notice change of plans. Will definitely recommend and use again!”


“Cara was AMAZING!!!! She was wonderful with communication and was so great with everything all weekend! From helping dog sit last minute and through TERRIBLE weather - Cara was great through it all and I will definitely request to have her watch my pup again!!”


“JoAnne was amazing with Morgan. She went above and beyond... Our dog even had some health issues going on making her get up early and she just rolled with it and the house was spotless when she was done. We sure appreciate everything she did to take care of our girl and can't recommend her enough!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, since I was a kid. My extended family started trusting me to watch them, and then my neighbors had me watch their dogs. And some one the dogs I’ve watched have had anxiety, medical issues, behavioral issues, but handled each situation and am learning as new experiences are thrown to me. I love dogs as I have 2 currently and have owned 3 others. I’ve had puppies to old senior dogs. So I have many experiences with training and dealing with accidents. I’m working in the morning until Roughly 3 but my boss is very flexible with me letting dogs out and making sure their taken Care of. If the dog allows I cuddle them when I’m with them and then I let them out every time before I leave no matter the time. And I always let them out every 3-4 hours and can do more if beeded I treat each pet as my own, any messes that happen I make sure gets cleaned up, if the dog gets dirty from mud and or poop I clean the mess up and then the dog will get a bath, and if there if a mess from a toy, I make sure I acknowledge what toy it is to make sure there aren’t any pieces that the dog could choke on, if the dog has some toy I make sure to keep an eye on the condition of the toy so there’s no chance of choking! Dogs safety is the most important thing when watching them! They’re family not pets.

“Ella watched our 2 dogs for the first half of our trip out of the country. She kept us up to date with pictures daily and even asked questions when needed or when she was unsure of something. We have never used a sitter before, due to the nature of one of our dogs, but she made everything so easy and we’ve never felt more comfortable leaving our dogs with someone. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for your fur babies! We plan to use Ella as our sitter for future plans and trips!”


“Fenris was great she kept me updated, took lots of pictures, and went above and beyond to make sure my pup was taken care of”


About: I’ve been around animals all my life. I’ve fostered dogs and cats, and I used to socialize kittens at CARE STL. I used to dog-sit or pet-sit for friends and family, but now I’d like to do more. I have two cats of my own currently, but I used to specialize in fostering feral kittens for adoption with Pet Rescue Network. I love all pets of different shapes and sizes. I currently work from home part-time working for my husband’s company. My lax schedule allows me to plan around for visits, potty-breaks, walk or play. As long as I have a notice and schedule, there should be no worries. I am comfortable going into a client’s home only as my pets and home cannot accommodate more animals currently. I am a believer in routine, and I do not tolerate dogs taking control on walks for the safety of the dog and myself.

“I highly recommend Donovan!! He was so great with our dogs and they both loved him! He was very professional and understanding of everything my dogs needed!”

“Kaitlin is wonderful!! My Frenchie Dartagnan absolutely loves her! Kaitlin is very personable, friendly, courteous & responsible. She is also great at communicating. She sent me photos & videos of Dartagnan while I was away so I could see him. Dartagnan is very comfortable with Kaitlin. He ate for her which is saying something because he normally won’t eat while I’m away. He was playful & relaxed with her so this eased my mind while i was on my trip. Kaitlin is full of energy & will keep your pets entertained for sure! I knew Dartagnan was in great hands!! Kaitlin will take such great care of your furbabies! I highly recommend her.”


“Kimberly was so good with our little cat! She was so kind and took great care of our home and fur baby! She even gave our cat who doesn’t isn’t good with medication her meds twice a day and sent us pics of our baby while we were on vacation! Will absolutely be booking with her again!”


“Macaire was wonderful with my dogs and my home. I have used her several times and hope to use her again and again! She takes care of my dogs like they are her own and I get updates and pictures.”


“We’re so grateful for Trina’s care while we were out of town. She’s a total pro, and our dogs absolutely adored her. They got their daily walks, were kept under great command—no small feat considering that includes a 130lb Cane Corso and a Rott mix—and were showered with love the entire time. Plus, our house might have been in better shape when we got back than when we left! Easiest 5+ star review we’ve ever given. We’ll definitely be hoping Trina is available next time we’re away!”


About: Grew up around animals. Love working with fish all the way up to horses. At one point I was helping transport animals in need from shelters to a better place.

My caring nature and dedication to their well-being fuel everything I do in this mission. Hello I'm Abigail I currently work part time fluctuating hours , that's why I asked for 3 days in the advice but I am available most times I'm available in the morning , evening , and overnight and Im off weekends at this point.

Kathryn L.
“She is a wonderful dog sitter. Is she has a dog or a couple she makes sure she’s able to take care of them before she accepts watching them. And if she has plans during the time of watching she makes sure I know that she’s going to be out of the house and gives a rough estimate on how long she’ll be gone. She constantly sends updates and pictures as well! Great sitter!!”

Kathryn C.
“Kate is an animal person through and through and loves nothing more than spoiling our dog. Over the years, she has dog or cat-sat for us as well as for friends and neighbors - always to rave reviews. She's dependable and caring (and yes I'm biased as her mom) but beyond that she truly enjoys spending time with animals and spoiling them with attention.”
