“Jacqueline was great with Momo! She was quick to respond to my messages over the holidays and attentive when following Momo’s specific meal routine.”


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: I volunteer at the APA animal shelter where I walk and play with all types of dogs. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals including lizards, fish, kittens (2 weeks old), puppies, and turtles! I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time to spend time with your animals and make sure they are well taken care of! I give all pets love and affection with different pets needing different things! For dogs I love to take them for walks and give them lots of belly scratches, and for cats I love to play with them and if they like, pet them!
“TzuYu was a wonderful cat sitter; she did everything I asked of her, played with my cat, and sent lots of pictures. I will be asking her to take care of my cat for my next trip too”

“Mikayla was great! Followed instructions well and went above and beyond in playing with my cats! My kitties seemed very happy in all of the pictures she took. I would definitely book again”

“Mae was extremely communicative and definitely went above and beyond when caring for my three kitties! They fed, played with, and made sure boxes were clean for my babies. My cats looked very happy in the photos they sent, which was much appreciated. I would definitely book again!”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life. I have raised my own dogs and have helped friends, neighbors, and family with theirs for years. I am comfortable with all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I am dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Whether it is walks, feeding, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog as if they were my own. You can expect consistent communication while you are away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I am currently fully available and have a very flexible schedule. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I can accommodate weekdays, weekends, overnights, and extended stays. Your dog will receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I am especially available for in home sitting, which allows pets to stay comfortable in their own environment. I have a secure, fenced patio (with designated turf potty areas, and one friendly, well socialized dog. I am happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including crating if needed, feeding schedules, medication, and exercise preferences. While I can host in my home, I prefer sitting in your home so your dog can remain in a familiar, stress free setting. I am respectful of your space, attentive to detail, and focused on keeping your pet safe, calm, and well cared for at all times.
“Megan is amazing! She was very accommodating and flexible! Fast response time and my dog Ruby loves her! I would highly recommend Megan and we will definately be having her over again!”

About: I have a 5 year old 100lb staffordshire terrier named Kaido that I raised and trained since he was 6 weeks old. I crate trained, house trained, recall trained, socialized, and lead trained him myself. I have also Kaido to help work with other dogs that are not well socialized or have anxiety issues. I am currently working two part time jobs as a research coordinator so I am typically able to be flexible with whatever schedule is requested. While my apartment does not have a fenced yard, I do have a large dog crate if needed and have knowledge of many dog parks and trails in the St Louis area.

“I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Kyani. She took amazing care of our fur babies and it shows, they were always so excited to see her. She is a great communicator and sent us daily updates and pictures of our babies. She also took such great care of our home, even bringing packages in and ensuring our robovaccum doesn’t her stuck. I would absolutely hire her again and you should too!”

About: I’ve had cats all my life and currently own two of my own cats. Many of my friends have larger dogs, and have relied on me to help check on them while they are out of town and take them for walks and have play dates. I love all kinds of dogs and cats! I am currently working from home on Mondays and Fridays, but that will change to working from home on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday in the next couple of weeks. My nights are mostly free and am able to be flexible with my schedule. I will make sure your pet is comfortable, well fed and hydrated, and give them the playtime and snuggles they need! I make sure litter boxes and yards are clean and clean up any accidents that may happen.

“Kartik regularly provides our k9's with first class care at a very reasonable cost. Not only is he professional and well trusted but he is also pleasant and enjoyable to communicate with. We have every intention of continuing our ongoing Rover relationship with Kartik for the foreseeable future.”


About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since 2016. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, snuggle, love on and bathe their pets..(when needed from grass stains to muddy walks) after losing my soul dog in 2020 I made it a personal mission to help others give their dogs, great love, affection, and care. I have administered oral medications for all sizes of dogs due to allergies, diet, skin, irritation, tummy issues and infections. Recently, I fostered a pitbull for a month that was very skittish. In that month, she learned to sit, stay, her name, and most importantly that she is loved. I am making it my personal mission to help all dogs feel loved and all owners to feel like their pups are in good hands. You can expect pictures and or videos from me to help ensure that you have picked someone who cares as much as you do for your pet. I am currently working full-time, but depending on the area I am available for early morning walks on weekdays (before 7am) and after work walks/check-in. (After 5:30pm) my schedule on the weekends varies, but I’m open to starting a schedule with the right dog! One of my main goals is to continue your dogs schedule as close to yours as possible. I will send updates, pictures, videos throughout my time with your dog.
“Jennifer did a great job taking care of my cat. I was out of town for a few days and needed someone to check in on my cat while I was gone. Jennifer was quick with her communications, friendly, caring, and easy to work with. I'm very happy with the experience and would definitely ask her to look after my cat again!”

“Wonderful experience with Brooklyn! She was very reliable, always on time and was great at communicating. Sends the best pictures and I felt very comfortable with her!”

Penrose pet parents share their Rover experiences
TzuYu was an amazing sitter! She kept me updated with daily pictures and some videos, cleaned his water fountain and changed filters, emptied and filled his litter, left treats around for enrichment, just went above and beyond for my little guy! He's shy but he warmed up to her, which shows just how great she is. Will definitely be booking her again in the future!! 🥰

Solange took very good care of my fur baby, Queenie. She took photos everyday and she called me twice, so I could talk to Queenie. Solange was punctual and professional when I met with her and during drop in visits. Queenie loves her too. ❤️ I would strongly recommend Solange as a pet sitter, and I will be using her pet services in the future.

Hannah is the best! She responded to my booking in a timely manner and sent updated pictures of Benji every visit. My pup is super energetic and at times a bit roudy, she had no issues accomodating. I also had an issue on return where I was unable to communicate because of my phone was broken. Hannah did a great job finishing the booking and I was able to return and access my loft.

Renee did a perfect job! Did all of the tasks I asked her to do and some more. She swept up some cat litter+washed the dishes the cats were eating wet food off of. I have awkward cats but she she didn't give up on trying to get along with them. Would book again.

Lisa did great job taking care of my puppies!. She followed all the instructions and gave them extra love, daily cuddles and special care at the time of thunderstorm, just to make sure they were comfortable. I came home to calm, well taken care of dogs, her love and attention is greatly appreciated!
