“Stephanie is an wonderful with animals! She has watched my 2 dogs (6 year old AussieDoodle + 2 year old LabraDoodle) overnight many times. They love when she comes to watch them as she gives them lots of snuggles and playtime. She is also very responsible with feeding and any medications needs - as well as firm with executing any behavior instructions (sit, stay, down, no jumping). She is extremely trustworthy and reliable and my go-to whenever I need someone to take care of my fur-babies.”
10. Jeanette V.
“I can’t recommend my mom enough as a dog sitter. She has a natural way with animals—kind, gentle, and incredibly attentive. I’ve grown up with pets my entire life because of her, and she’s the one who taught me how to care for them with love, patience, and respect. Whether it was dogs, cats, or even the occasional rescue, she made sure every animal in our home was not only cared for but truly loved. She’s also one of the cleanest and most organized people I know, which makes a big difference when someone is trusting you with their home and their pets. She pays attention to every detail—making sure dogs are fed on time, walked regularly, and given plenty of affection and playtime. She treats every pet like they’re part of the family, because to her, they are. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and experienced to care for your dog, my mom is the perfect choice. Your pup will be in the best hands.”

About: I was raised with animals and I have always loved to take care of them. I have two dogs and a cat myself, and I have had many different dog breeds throughout my life. I currently go to school so on the weekdays I am available during the afternoon and on the weekends I am available all day any time. I have a fence around my house and I do have a dog to keep your fur baby company and I can easily take care of your pet.
16. Sara G.
About: I have loved taking care of dogs since I was a little girl. Much of my experience comes from taking care of my own dogs. I love all types of dogs. First dogs I fell in love with were 2 big dogs, a German Shepard and a mixed retriever. I loved the responsibility of taking care of them. As the years went by my big dogs needed a big space and I had to let them go. I knew from then on that taking care of dogs was going to be a passion. I have so much love for these beautiful dogs I've had the privilege to take care for. I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind. From neighbors, friends, and family. They have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I work from home so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-in visits on weekends and weekdays. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can also easily keep my dog in another room if your pup is not comfortable around other dogs.

19. Caryna C.
About: My passion for animals started when I was young. I begged for a puppy at the age ten until I got one. My first pet was a teacup chihuahua, named Teacup, and I absolutely adored her. Twelve years later, I owned a Husky mix, named Smokey. I also, have experience working at a zoo in Saint Louis, MO. It started off as an internship, then after my internship I worked as a part-time zoo keeper for a year. I also have experience volunteering at SPCA. I attended Harris-Stowe State University, and majored in Biology. I completed 100 credits. If your interested in my services please feel free to contact me; I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby I am self employed and work from home. Other than pet sitting, I am a lash technician and I drive for uber eats on my spare time. I do not overlap my work so please be sure to book ahead of time if possible. Your pet will never be left alone and unsupervised. I treat the pets as if I have a friend over. They will never get bored with me because I am super playful. If they’re not the playful type, then I love cuddles as well. I also love walking and going for a jog, so we would spend a lot of time outside, if the pet wants. I understand all pets have different behaviors and personalities, so I make sure I know about the dog before the booking.
20. Francesca H.
About: I actually have 5 cats of my own. I work with rescues and fosters when I can. And I feed all of the stray cats outside lol. I have a big heart and love all animals. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I work 4 hour shifts so after my shifts I can take care of the animal and then go back to work when needed but I’m free every 4 hours so I have a good amount of time to care for animals. I definitely prefer Sitting at your home because I love the animal to be in its day to day environment and feel safe and at home and have everything they need but yes if needed I am able to watch cats and some dogs at my home
