“Zach was amazing with Acacia, she’s super timid and he was very patient with her. I loved receiving photos and updates from him, and he really eased my mind while I was away from Acacia. I hope to work with Zach more in the future! 10/10 service. He also left the house exactly as we asked!”

“Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.”

“Asia is a wonderful sitter. She kept Cooper for an extended period for me and was very flexible with scheduling. She has extensive experience with dogs and can read cues and knows how to give them space if needed, especially for my anxious pup. I came home to a clean house and living plants too :) I will definitely be rebooking with Asia when I can in the future. Thank you so much!”

“Mikayla did a great job with an evening dog-sitting job at our hotel, when we were visiting St Louis from out of town. Our dog clearly loved her and she took him on a nice long walk, which he enjoyed. Much appreciated!”

“She’s great!! Came over last minute to watch our Frenchie. Very responsive and left the house just like she found it. Sent us pics of the little fur baby and kept us up to speed on everything. Love her!”


“Ashley was amazing! It was a little rough for her and Cooper in the beginning but they both worked through Cooper's issues.I got updates several times a day which I loved. She made sure that Cooper felt safe which was my biggest priority and when she left I think my house was a little cleaner than when I left for vacation. I would definitely recommend Ashley and will be calling her again in the future.!!!”

About: I've had pets my entire life. Im the person who saves all the neighborhood kitties. I'm comfortable around animals of all shapes and sizes. I would love to help care for your fur babies!! I have a very open schedule and am available most days and times. Please feel free to contact me I am available on short notice. I would currently prefer to come to clients homes not care for pets in my home i have lots of animals at my own home.
“Jennifer took care of our two high energy dogs without any issues! She was incredibly responsive and left our house in great condition. I highly recommend her.”

“I was super hesitant to have a sitter in house for my pup because I was scared of my house being a wreck when I came back. Thankfully, this fear did not come true with Mary as a sitter. They were clean and kept my apartment how I left it… if not better. They sent me quite a few update pictures of my pup, and just regular updates in general. They also made sure my pup was okay with plenty of water in the time it was going to take me to get home after they left. Your pup will be in good hands with Mary!”

“Marsha is complete magic! One of our dogs wasn’t eating and having accidents before we left to go out of town for a long weekend. By the time we got home Taco was consistently eating his meals and had NO accidents while we were away. Marsha is a super communicator and sent loads of photos. We could see how happy our dogs were with her there. We already re-booked with her for our next trip! Absolutely fantastic dog / house sitter!”

About: I’m an attentive, deeply responsible pet sitter with a warm heart and a professional approach to care. I’ve been pet sitting since I was a child, loving and caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and more. I’m always open to learning and training because your peace of mind matters to me. My background in a detail-driven healthcare field means I value precision, safety, and following care plans exactly as written. Whether your pet has two legs, four, or more, I treat them with the same care and respect I give to my own family members. I’ll treat your pet like my own and give them the attention, comfort, and best care they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I’m currently working part-time and have flexibility over my schedule. I can build in extra time for daily walks, feeding, play sessions, and care plan tasks without rushing. This means I’m able to stay consistent, be present with your pet, and adjust my day as needed to match their routine and comfort. I care for pets in your home since my place doesn’t allow pets indoors. I’ve been around animals all my life, and like many pet owners, I’ve learned to recognize their cues and patterns simply from growing up with them. It may take a little time to learn your pet’s quirks, but I enjoy that process and find it fun to understand what makes them feel safe and happy. The level of care I provide matches your pet’s specific needs. If you just need walks or drop-in visits, I’m happy with that. If your pet needs medication, special feeding, or other care tasks, I’m comfortable handling those too. I’m ready to rise to the level your pet needs and will follow your care plan exactly.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and grew up caring for them daily. I’ve raised a puppy and currently have a well-trained dog of my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m currently working part-time but am available most days during the week and can be flexible with scheduling as needed for pet care and walks. I prioritize safety and trust in every visit. I follow owner instructions closely, keep dogs on-leash during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and ensure pets are never left unattended. In a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain cleanliness, and make sure pets are comfortable, secure, and cared for the entire time.

About: Hi! I’m Erin, and I’m currently accepting new pet sitting clients in the St. Louis area. I work at Saint Louis University and also work part-time as a caregiver, so being dependable, responsible, and communicative is a huge part of my everyday life. I’m a lifelong dog owner and currently have a Lab mix of my own, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, medication administration (oral medications), playtime, and overnight pet sitting. I provide regular photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Unfortunately, I’m allergic to cats, so I’m only accepting dog and other non-cat household pet clients at this time. If you’re looking for someone reliable who will care for your dog like family, I’d love to connect. Feel free to message me with your location, dates, and what services you’re looking for. I currently have a full time role at SLU that offers remote days and flexible hours. I am able to adjust my schedule to manage both. I am very comfortable working with larger energetic dogs and those who may be a bit more timid. My family dog is a bull mastiff boxer mix who can run around for hours on end and my dog is an anxious couch potato through and through.

“Kartik was responsive and provided plenty of updates throughout his stay. My pets were well taken care of and the house was perfectly kept while I was gone. Would definitely recommend!”


“Jennifer was a fun, attentive, affectionate and responsible caregiver for my 7 month old kitten. She played with her a lot, fed her and cleaned out her litter regularly, and sent me lots of pictures and messages updating me on my kitten’s days. She also went above and beyond on cleaning my house and laundering the linens before I got home. Totally unnecessary, but very much appreciated. I would highly recommend her services.”

“TzuYu is an absolute jewel! She was very attentive to our schedule and to our little doggie’s needs. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. She came with treats and a welcoming greeting for our dog. I would definitely request her again.”

“Brenda is amazing! I really felt like I could get away and relax knowing that my pup was in great hands. She really felt like a member of the family. She checked in every single morning with photos and updates and took great care of my home.”

About: Hi! Thanks for looking at my profile. I’m Karah. I first began pet/house sitting when I was living in Ecuador in 2012. I am well practiced with dogs of all sizes, cats of many temperaments, and critters ranging from fishes to bearded dragons. I am currently working part time at a craft store. As such I can be with your critters for most of the day. Everyone will be well looked after and let out, walked, given specific care, et al. Quite frequently. I am not able to keep pets in my own home. I have my own two dogs and a cat who claims his own space.

Can't possibly say enough positives about Porter. Been traveling 40 + years with in-home sitters and no one has come close, to him. He loves what he does. And oh my, how my dogs love him. They sleep in bed with him. That is their routine. He followed precisely every direction that I left him. He also cleaned my house and it looks better than it did when I left. I only wish we had found him sooner. He is a stellar man as well and did the very best job. We are so happy to have found him.

Nicole did a wonderful job caring for my pets! Both of my dogs can be skittish around new people, but they took quickly to her and were comfortable with her in their space. She did an amazing job at communicating with me and sent lots of pictures so I knew how they were doing. I would definitely book with Nicole again!

A superstar! Tiffanie was amazing in every aspect of caring for our family pet during our weeklong vacation in Europe. She sent lots of photos and updates. Our pet is so playful and wants us to toss his toys way more to a before we left - our dog whispered that he wants to see Tiffanie soon! It was a relief to be away and know that he was being taken care of by a caring and adult pet sitter!

Hannah did such an amazing job watching my two furbabies. followed instructions to a T and gave lots of photos and updates while I was out. I was not worried at all about how my dogs were doing, they were in great hands and I will use Hannah in the future and recommend her to anyone

Kay Beth is amazing! She was so attentive and caring taking care of my dog, Bernice. Bernice has some extra needs like insulin injections and Kay Beth handled them like a champ. She is a vet tech so I trusted her with all of Bernice's medical needs. She loved on Bernice so much and gave her all the love and attention while I was out of town- I don't think Bernice noticed I was gone. She even noticed when Bernice started to show signs of an eye infection and called me right away. Kay Beth was great with sending daily updates and photos. Thanks, KB!!

We couldn’t be happier with Sarah! She was reliable and kind and kept our cats happy while we were away. She was able to manage multiple medications accurately for our cat with chronic illnesses, and adjust as needed based on symptoms. She played regularly with our kitten and kept her entertained and happy daily! The cats were relaxed and well cared for when we returned, and everything was as we left it. We really appreciated the updates and photos. I would absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our fur babies! 🐾💛
Jacqueline takes wonderful care of our dog and special needs cat. During a very scary medical event for our cat (no fault of hers), she was communicative, compassionate and quick acting. We were very comforted to have her taking care of our beloved cat during the time. She is also very respectful with our home and sends lots of updates and photos. Highly recommend.
