“Isa is amazing! She spends time sending adorable pictures and made sure our puppy was tired for a long car ride to Wisconsin! Our pup certainly had fun playing with the other dogs and in the sprinkler! As soon as he got into our car, he fell asleep. This is exactly what we wanted! We can’t wait to use Isa again!”

About: With over a decade of experience caring for dogs, I’ve been the go-to pet caretaker for family members since I was nine. Whether it was for relatives traveling out of town or my own beloved dogs, I’ve handled a variety of breeds and temperaments with the utmost care and dedication. Rest assured, your furry friend will be in experienced, loving hands. My daily routine revolves around my pup. Each morning starts with a walk before I head to school for a few hours. When I get back, we enjoy some quality time, and I make sure my dog is fed and happy. Even when I work the night shift, I have a trusted friend who comes by to take care of my dog. At night, my dog is right by my side, sleeping in the bed with me until the next morning. Your pet will be cared for with the same love and attention I give my own. I prioritize the safety and well-being of every dog in my care. Whether your dog prefers to be in or out of the crate, I ensure they are comfortable and secure. You can trust that I maintain a vigilant and caring watch over all the dogs I look after.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I only recently, in the past couple of years, started taking care of other people’s pups, and I really enjoy it. I treat all pups as if they were my own. I am retired. I play pickleball quite a bit, but I am never gone more than a few hours at a time. My husband works from home, so there is almost always someone around to accompany your pup. My favorite part of the job is showering pups with love. We have mattresses on the floor and if the pups are willing, we love to snuggle with them. I typically walk them 4 to 6 times a day, depending on the wants/needs of the pup and the weather. I will be sure to check in multiple times daily with you and send photos and videos. I am very quick to respond to messages!

About: Fully Vaccinated / Masked Hi there! My name is Lara, and I am a lifetime animal lover and cat mom based in the Bevo Mill neighborhood of St Louis. I'm a full time work-from-home graphic designer, illustrator, and contracted artist. This means I get to make my own schedule and can always guarantee that I will be there for you and your pet! I'm a very proactive pet provider in that I always take the time to get to know an animal's personality and quirks before agreeing to take them on as a client. In my spare time I love to explore local parks for the best trails and spots and regularly volunteer at animal rescues around the city, as well as tending to my "indoor jungle" and snuggling with my kitty, Garbage! Because I am able to make my own schedule, I have a flexible hours to accommodate the needs of your pet's regular routine while you are away. "Leave it better than you found it," is my life's motto. I am a neat, quiet, organized person that most animals gravitate towards. Routine is the goal!

“My dog Taku and I relocated here from Michigan recently. We have no family or friends here in Illinois. I was so stressed and anxious on what I will do with Taku while I’m at work or a long day or long weekend. Taku has separation anxiety where if he’s left alone, he will cry and bark the whole entire time. Then I found Jeena on Rover! She was so accommodating! She allowed Taku and I to come meet her and her cats to see if they all got along, before we booked her for a half day of day care. Taku did really well at her place! He felt comfortable and when I went to pick him up, he was happy and well taken care of. It seemed like he really loved her already and he gave her kisses goodbye! We will definitely be using Jeena again!! We feel so lucky to have found her!!!! Thanks Jeena and Rover!”

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have cared for everything from reptiles to rodents to larger 4-legged creatures. I spontaneously rescued a dog 20 years ago which ended up being one of the best decisions of my life. I spent 15 years with my little buddy exploring trails, taking car rides, lazily cuddling on the couch and having lots of one-way conversations. He unfortunately passed away a happy old man but during that time, taught me patience, dedication, playfulness and gave me a special appreciation for dogs. I have vast experience being around a variety of dogs of all shapes, sizes and personality types. I overall just enjoy being around dogs and caring for them (I'm definitely that guy asking strangers if I can pet their dog ). I look forward to sitting your animals and providing you a great service if we match. I work from home in an office setting during the week so I would be around the house most of the time to keep tabs on things and for backyard potty breaks (have a fenced in backyard). During the week, I would be available before 8:00am, during my lunch break and after 4:30pm for walks or to stop by your house for check-ins. On weekends, I am not working so I would be available all day. I live next to Tower Grove Park and enjoying spending time outside or walking in the park. I have a cozy home with a small fenced-in backyard that is perfect for small to medium sized dogs. My house is tidy, quiet and currently don’t have any pets, so my home is perfect dogs who prefer that kind of environment. I generally don’t need to leave the house too often so your pet would be hanging with me most of the time. When boarding, I am able to provide two 20 minute walks per day and as many backyard potty breaks as they need.

“Hailie and Alex did a wonderful job looking after Yodi during our brief stop in St. Louis! We were a bit worried about how long it would take him to feel comfortable in a new environment, but based on the pictures they sent and how quickly he fell asleep after being picked up, he had an enjoyable and eventful day! Not only was it clear that Hailie truly loves animals, but their dog Evie was playful with Yodi and helped get all his energy out. We definitely recommend if you're looking for a positive experience for your pet!”

“Thank you to Megan for watching after our pup! This daycare option was perfect for us and Megan was patient with our shy/nervous dog.”

Grace K.

“Alex was great to watch my pup lux for the day! Lux is usually shy at first but wasn’t with Alex. Lux seemed well taken care of and had a fun day! Would use Alex again in the future to care for lux!”

About: I have two super goofy, friendly, and loving male Pit bulls. I work from home so will be around pretty much all the time. I take my dogs on a walk mostly 3 times a day but again I’m around a lot and get bored easily so might be 5 times a day :) My dogs are definitely spoiled and should not expect anything less for your pet when I’m watching them! I have experience with senior dogs and dogs who need special care such as taking medicine. Mostly home all day and night. I work from home so your pet will always be attended too unless I leave to make a quick errand run. My dogs do have cages but they are barely in them. Whenever I do leave my dogs stay out freely but they do well in their cages when needed. They do get along very well with other pets. Small dogs or large dogs.

About: Hi! I’m Hannah—a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to a sweet 9-year-old fur baby who’s taught me all about patience, routines, and unconditional love. I know how personal it feels to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I treat both with great care and respect. I offer in-home drop-in visits and walks to keep your fur babies happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine. From fun walks, to belly rubs, I bring calm energy, lots of love, and attention to the little things—so you can come home to a relaxed, happy pup I’m here to keep your fur family happy, comfy, and loved while you’re away 💕🐾 I work from home 3 - 4 days a week. I will never accept a sitting job if I can’t stay with them all day! I love bringing my laptop outdoors and allowing the animals to play and run around. On days when I go into work (always Tuesdays) I’m available for morning and evening walks I take my fur baby to K9 Garden at least once a week. I’d love for yours to join us for some fun in the sun! I am experienced in providing medications and using crates if necessary. The most important thing is that everyone is safe and your pup goes hope happy (and tired!) I am happy to accommodate your pet however you feel is right!

“Wow! Stephanie is incredible! We just moved to the area and were looking to find someone we could reach out to for occasional daycare and overnight stays and I am so grateful we found her. She responded quickly, was incredibly accommodating and provided exceptional service. She kept us updated throughout the day with photos, provided an incredibly thoughtful welcome bag and made sure our dogs were happy and safe throughout the day. She went above and beyond and I truly can’t say enough positive things about her. I am an overprotective dog mom and am very particular about who watches my dogs. They loved her and so did we. We will most certainly be back!”

“Brownie is in such good hands with Jeanne. She keeps her safe and well taken care of! It is fun for Brownie to play with other pups! So happy I found Jeanne!!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I could walk. A home is incomplete without an animal or two. I completed one year of vet tech school and familiar with pet training I work from home full-time. I walk my walk 2-3 times a day around the neighborhood. My work schedule is flexible to allow pet catering I have a fenced backyard. One very friendly platt hound mix and 2 dog-friendly cats dog and cats always have fresh water. Yard is treated for ticks/fleas and mosquitoes.

“Cooper loved his stay with Karen, as always! We decided to have Cooper go to a sitter very last minute so that we would be freed up for our moving day. Karen was very accommodating and flexible with pick up and drop off. Thanks, Karen! :)”

About: Hi! My name is Darius and I truly love being around animals. I don't have any right now, but I've had pets almost my entire life including a yorkie, two pomeranians, three cocker spaniels, a foster kitten, and a German shepherd. I used to live with two adult cats, but my ex got them in the breakup sadly. Fortunately, I've got another friend with older cats that lets me check on them when she's away. More recently, I've been the go-to pet sitter for my friends because I have a big house with a fenced in yard and a lot of squirrels to yap at. Long story short, I just want your baby to feel loved and taken care of while they're away from home. I'll be with them most of the day because I typically work from home. As long as they don't mind chilling around the house, walking around my beautiful neighborhood, or chiming in on the occasional business call, we'll get along great. Like I mentioned, 99% of the time I work from home M-F. I might occasionally go into the office but only for a 2-4 hours max. Three days a week I go to the gym for an hour but for the most part I'll be working, chilling at the house, or outside exploring the neighborhood with my new furry friend. I like to curate a calm, peaceful environment that's full of love for your pet to feel relaxed and at ease during their stay.
