About: Specializing in senior dogs - I am no stranger to giving insulin shots to a diabetic dog, tricking dogs into taking pills, and assisting senior dogs with mobility issues. I work from 3-9 pm Monday through Friday, so I have plenty of time during the morning to mid-afternoon and evening to spend with your pets! I love both cats and dogs and have one of each. Let me know what your pet needs. I can adhere to schedules and regiments to keep your pet comfortable, happy, and anxiety-free while in my care!
About: I have always had animals around me my whole life. My wife and I currently have two sweet cats and we see her families dog very often. I grew up walking my cousins dogs and am good with most any kind of animal! I am currently a full time student so I have lots of time and a flexible schedule for taking care of pets. I have two cats of my own and will be adding a puppy into the mix soon! I will treat your fur baby as if it were my own and not only take care of them while you are away but make sure to spend some good time making sure they are played with and loved.
About: With years of caring for my pet and those of my loved ones, I bring special attention, patience, presence with pet care. Not on my phone, making sure your pet gets the attention they need. I currently work part-time as a baker. I am usually free on weekends and on Tuesday/Wednesday in the mornings, afternoons & evenings. My schedule accommodates last minute bookings I make sure each pet’s physical needs are promptly taken care of — food, water, bathroom breaks, walks if needed. I assess the pet’s energy level and preferences for attention. I share undivided attention with pets if they desire. I am careful to ensure safety in the space, with an eye out for potential choking hazards or doors/gates to keep shut.
About: Hi! I’ve always been a huge animal lover—truly, the kind of kid who wanted to bring home every animal possible. Over the years, I’ve cared for hamsters, hermit crabs, fish, and bunnies, but dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and now my husband and I have a 4-month-old dachshund named Link, who brings us endless joy (and energy!). Training and spending time with Link has been such a rewarding experience, and it’s reminded me just how much I love caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I’m patient, attentive, and take pet care very seriously—I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. We live in a split-level duplex with a fenced-in backyard, perfect for playtime and puppy adventures. Link is friendly and loves meeting new dog friends! Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or just a little extra love while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re cared for like my own. Weekends are when I’m most available for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting. I also work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office (Tuesday–Thursday), I return home around 5 p.m. and am available for evening walks or visits. I live in a split-level, 1,400 sq. ft. duplex with a fenced-in backyard, perfect for safe outdoor play. I share my home with my 4-month-old dachshund puppy, Link, who loves meeting new friends and has endless energy for playtime. I have plenty of dog toys, can provide crate accommodations if needed, and go on multiple walks each day. Your dog will get plenty of attention and care while they’re here!
About: I have fostered 140 animals over the last 6 years and volunteer at a local animal shelter to walk and bathe dogs. My experience with animals spans from puppies from the age of 3 weeks up to senior dogs up to 14 years old. I am comfortable working with animals with special needs such as dogs with reactivity, the tendency to pull or leash grab, as well as dogs recovering from heartworm and kennel cough. I also have three of my own whom I love dearly. I have a passion for animals and cannot wait to meet your fur baby! I work 4 days a week as a Physical Therapist and have Sunday-Monday off to spend time with your pups/kitty cats! I may open up more availability as I am able. I am proficient in leash management, comfortable walking up to 5 dogs at a time, and pick up on your dog’s cues (fatigue, thirst, discomfort, reactivity, etc.) to ensure a safe environment for your pets.
“Damica is great she followed instructions very well and was really patient with my dog and his many stops he likes to make during his walks she kept me updated with many pictures and videos! Thank you!”

About: Hello there! My name is Kelsey and I have been taking care of pets since I was 13 years old. I’m a mom to both a tiny human and 7 animals! I have two dogs, two cats, two horses and one foster dog. I achieved my Bachelors of Science in Agriculture and Masters of Science from Murray State University in 2017 and 2019. I have been a Registered Veterinary Technologist since 2017. I have worked emergency and critical care medicine; I am currently at a general practice veterinary hospital. I am particularly experienced with medication administration and fearful animals. I am extremely passionate about pet care and hope to offer you the comfort in knowing my years of experience in the veterinary field will allow for me to accommodate and care for all your pet’s needs! Currently I am working full time at a veterinary hospital. I am flexible during the week, but have most availability on Wednesdays and weekends. Stopping in to let pets out for potty breaks during my lunch hour is an option during the week. Dropping in mornings and evenings before and after work is a possibility as well. I am flexible with scheduling when given enough notice. I have a fenced yard and space for a kennel if that is what your pet prefers. I have baby gates around the house to keep spaces blocked off if your pet needs their own space to decompress. I will respect the rules and routine of your pets in your homes. I prefer to keep their routine as normal as possible in your absence.
About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. At one point I was taking care of 3 dogs. Currently helping my roommate train her small dogs! I am able to care for pets most nights and weekends! Can stay overnight or make a quick stop for potty breaks, walks, and lovings. I keep a relatively strict feeding schedule but know when to throw in some extra treats for fun. I do my best to exercise with pets and get their energy out in a safe manner.
“Maysara is wonderful. She is so kind to our sweet Maggie, and so great with dogs. She’s easy to work with, dependable, trustworthy, and authentic. She has great communication and follows through. We would enthusiastically recommend her!”

“Clay was fantastic! He was friendly and professional during the meet and greet, and his communication has been responsive and polite. He arrived on time for my pup's walk and sent me a photo.”

About: I don’t currently have a fur baby of my own so I am looking to care for others’ furry family members. I will love, pamper and care for them as I would my own..... I am looking for long-term relationships, however I would be happy to fill in on a short-term, temporary basis as well. I have a fenced in yard and live close to many parks. If your pet needs one-on-one attention, I am willing to accommodate and only take in one family pet at a time. Your fur baby would get a lot of TLC and one-on-one attention. I have plenty of time in my life to care for and play with your furry family member. I have a fenced in yard. Live close to three nice parks-Carondelet, Jefferson Barracks, Lemay Park. Small dog park in the neighborhood. Lots of places to play nearby. I work part time outside the home. I will be gone for a maximum of five hour blocks when scheduled to work away from home. I have a fenced in yard. My home is very pet friendly. Many pet pillows and toys to choose from throughout the house. I am selective about treats I purchase for my guests. Puppers allowed to be on furniture if the owners are okay with that. I have Ring cameras to keep an eye on the fur babies when I’m away and love to share those videos with the family.

“Jessica was very professional and responsive! We WILL be using her again. In our preview meeting she connected immediately with our excitable hound and it was clear they would get along well!! Definitely recommend.....”


About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages since I was 14, and I truly love spending time with animals. I can also administer any medications your pet might need — I know how important their health is! I work a 9–5 desk job, so I make it a goal to walk every day to hit my 10k steps and having a furry walking buddy makes it way more fun. I’m also working on paying off some student loans, so Rover is a great way for me to do something I enjoy while earning a little extra. I’d love to meet your pet and give them the care and attention they deserve! Pet care is a meaningful part of my everyday routine. I work a 9–5 desk job, so spending time with animals — whether it’s evening check-ins, after work walks or weekend visits — is the perfect way to stay active, unwind, and do something I genuinely enjoy. I make it a priority to hit my step goal daily, and having a furry companion by my side makes those walks even better. Caring for pets adds balance to my day and gives me a chance to connect with animals. I always strive to make your pets as comfortable as possible. I pay special attention to your pets needs and make sure they are having fun even when their parents are away!
About: I’ve lived with and cared for dogs and other pets my entire life. I have been walking and boarding dogs professionally for nearly a decade. I’m confident in my ability to properly care for dogs of any age, size, temperament, and ability. I have experience in obedience training, grooming, and even injury rehabilitation. I’ve had a 16 year career as a licensed massage therapist and have taken several courses on canine massage as part of my continuing education requirements. My schedule allows for me to not ever have to leave your dog alone for more than two hours at a time. I would be able to spend at least an hour and a half walking or playing fetch with your dog every day. I would allow your dog every freedom they have in their own house and work with you to ensure consistency. I would give them the same types of praise and set the same types of boundaries. I live in a great neighborhood that I love to walk. I’m in close proximity to several off leash parks to take your dog to socialize and play fetch. There’s also plenty of room inside for tug of war and belly rubs.
