About: Hi! My name is Nikki and I’ve lived with dogs and cats since I was a toddler. I always loved helping my parents and grandma with our many pets while growing up, but it wasn’t until I graduated high school that I decided to start expanding to pet-sitting for my friends as well! I was always happy to spend time with and gain knowledge from their furry friends. Two years after high school, I adopted a sweet husky puppy. He was just 8 weeks old when I took him home and I quickly realized raising a puppy is A LOT of work (but worth it!!). After a long journey of trial and error and 4 training classes together, he’s the best friend I could ask for. Three years later my dad rescued 3 more husky puppies, who I also helped raise! They have definitely taught me patience, how to deal with a semi-reactive dogs, and has made me confident in my ability to care for large breeds. I’ve looked after a variety of breeds, big and small, timid and reactive. I’m experienced in handling high energy dogs, young puppies who are still learning, and older dogs who need extra care and patience. I’ve also looked after cats, including those that needed help with medications and asthma treatment. Whether your pets like to walk and play or just need someone to hangout with while you’re gone, I can do it all. I will care for your beloved pets in your home and follow all your wants and needs! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I’m currently available any time Wednesday-Friday and on most Saturdays. I like to know all the details about your pets every day life so I can help keep their routines as normal as possible. Whether that includes certain times for feeding, walking, medications, etc. I also like to know if they are reactive, timid, or have any other quirks you want me to know about!

About: I have 3 dogs and 1 cat that were all babies when we adopted them! An old neighbor of mine used to work for a shelter and I would help her out with the puppies! I currently work a full-time job in St. Louis but am free in the evenings and on weekends! I always make time for my furry friends. I always take the important, necessary precautions with my animals. For one, I have an indoor cat that loves to try to go outside so I am very observant of my surroundings when opening doors to outside. I also always have my dogs on leashes whenever they are outside!

“Emily is everything you could ask for if you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies while you are away. Detailed visit recaps and plenty of pictures from each visit were all provided by Emily. Emily made sure that she spent quality time with our girls and that is extremely important when your pets are a bit stressed because Mom and Dad are gone. She also did a great job on checking on things around the house! Thank you, Emily! Consider yourself a part of the family now! We will definitely call on your services again and anyone reading this should too!!”

“Mal is amazing! She brought in packages, cleaned up kitty messes, fixed our kitty camera, and got hilarious pics of our fur bubbas! 50 stars!!!!”

“This was our second time requesting Rebecca to watch our kitties and she was even more amazing this time (which I didn’t think was even possible)! She is so thoughtful and caring! She pays attention to the little details and treats our cats as though they were her own! We definitely have a favorite Rovwe sitter now!”

About: I’ve had four dogs, two bunnies, and experience caring for cats, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities. I’ve also trained two puppies, which taught me patience and consistency (and how to handle a little chaos). I’m big on communication, so you’ll always get updates and know how your pet is doing. I’m especially great with high-energy dogs since I genuinely enjoy long walks, playtime, and keeping them active. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I work from home in insurance, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily build my day around pet care. I’m able to take my time with walks and visits, and I’m around during the day to keep you updated. For drop-ins and walks, I stick closely to your pet’s routine so everything feels normal for them. I follow instructions carefully, keep walks safe, and pay attention to how they’re doing. I’m also respectful of your home and always leave things how I found them. I’ll send a quick update after each visit so you know how it went.

“Nicole has been checking in on my dog Kane for about six months now and she’s consistent with her visits and when I return home Kane is always in good spirits. She’s also able to accommodate at times my last minute scheduling as things pop up. She’s a pleasure to work with.”

“Emily was amazing with Beanz! I knew when we did our initial meet and greet that he was going to be in excellent hands. She kept me well informed on any issues and loved seeing the photos of him during her drop ins. She took care of Beanz like he was her own which made the experience truly easy, especially since I hate being away from my gremlin. But would 1000% recommend Emily to anyone and would love to use her services in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had a pet dog before and he was well taken care of up until his passing. Would love some company when I’m not working. I currently work in the military and I’m off every other weekend. When I am off I am just home not doing anything but gaming. My home is fenced in and I live in a very nice neighborhood where your fur baby can feel safe and be watched after every night he is watched.

About: I've taken care of senior dogs and up to 4 dogs at a time. I am available to stay overnight if needed and don't have a preference for any breed of pets. I'm currently enrolled at McKendree University and am able to watch pets throughout the afternoon, evenings, and nights! I am pretty available throughout the week and through the weekend! I have a fenced in yard and love to take pets on walks throughout town and playing with the pets as well to keep them company.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. You can rest assured your pups, big and small, will get all the love and attention while you’re away. I currently work full-time, Monday through Friday, but have three pups of my own at home and can board additional pups overnight during the week and can do daytime walks on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and keep your pets separated from my household pets unless they are long-time visitors and we know everyone gets along well.

“Valerie was very sweet to my fur babies. She went the extra mile and took wonderful care of them while I was on vacation. I am a rover sitter as well and I would highly recommend her. Thanks Valerie!”

“Alana was fantastic - communicated well, was thorough, and took good care of our cat Eska. Would definitely hire again.”

About: Please use my promo code… https://www.rover.com/sit/rosal48641 I have a Great Pyrenees and am used to large dogs and no issue handling smaller pets as well. I periodically watch pets for friends and family. Distance and time are very flexible most days. Let me know if you need assistance and I can find a way to make it work. Periodic walks are necessary for pets of all sizes and for humans as well. :) Favorite part of my day with my Pyrenees is long walks and sunshine.

About: I have been pet sitting now for 3 years. I have watched various breeds and ages for both cats and dogs. I also have experience with fosters and elderly dogs. I am very flexible for drop ins. For walks, it depends due to my work schedule. As long as I know in advance, I can try to make it work! I would prefer to take care of your pets in your home. One of my dogs is territorial, it is not guaranteed he would get along with another dog coming into my home.

“This is my first time using Rover. Jennifer made it so easy and was amazing. She looked after my kitty and was super responsive. I really appreciate she helped us with our cat due to it being a small job which can be harder to find someone to accommodate. I will definitely be back when we need help for weekend getaways for our pup and cat. Thank you Jennifer!”

About: If loving a dog was a love language I’d be just that! I am very reliable, and giving. I have a house and a generous yard, and work remote. I have cared for plenty types of dogs growing up, and acquiring to each of their needs. It’s always my goal making them feel good when they are in my care. I work 2 days in the week at my office, and most the time home, otherwise I’m running errands. My schedule is pretty flexible. Communication is always key of course when it comes to timing, and plans. I have a nice long sized yard right next to my apartment building right out my door to take out the doggies for potty breaks, and general play time. If your dog needs to be in crate otherwise then play that’s totally okay as well.
