“Fran has been absolutely amazing with my little guy, Archie!! She is amazingly flexible and has gone out of her way to provide good care for him and to help me with my crazy work schedule! I highly recommend her!!”


“Damica is trustworthy and excellent with my pup. Kya has come home tired and happy from daycare both times I have picked her up, which is exactly what I wanted! Damica is quick to respond and provides updated videos/photos throughout the day so I can see what Kya is up to. Will definitely rehire.”


“Mariah did an absolutely wonderful job with my baby girl. Very nice and caring person to talk to also. She was there when I needed her in every way 🙏 I will be booking again for my little fur baby ❤️❤️❤️”


“Isa took such great care of our puppy! This was my first time using Rover and leaving my puppy with a sitter instead of a doggy daycare. Isa answered all of my questions about the process and gave me the chance to come meet her first. She was also very flexible as I had to book it sort of last minute and didn't have an exact time of when we would be picking up our puppy. Also our puppy was still finishing recovery from a recent surgery, and Isa was very understanding of this and made sure he got enough Rex. I really appreciated Isa's updates and pictures throughout the day, and I know our puppy had a lot of fun as he was very tired when he got home! Thank you again Isa, we will definitely bring our puppy back in the future!”


“Haile and Alex were so pleasant and informative. This was my first stay and they took the time to let my dog get acclimated with the other dogs upon arrival. They sent pics and videos to make me feel comfortable about me being apart. At pickup time they provided advice based off of what they experienced during the stay to help her next stay be just that much better for my pup. Needless to say her new bestie Evie had a great time and she is down for the count. ☺️ Thank you!”


“Shelly was fantastic! She stopped by to meet Lisbet ahead of the booking, and her communication and care throughout Lisbet's stay with her was outstanding. We will definitely book with Shelly again.”


“Jennifer was great! Ari had the best time. I could tell Ari was going to have the best time as soon as I set foot in the doorway. She had such a kind energy. Thank you so much for taking great care of my pup, Jennifer!”


“Allison was the perfect person to take care of my shy pooch. She was calm and reassuring and he seemed very comfortable with her. She took him for a long walk, which he always enjoys. And she lives very close to the hotel I stay at. I’ll definitely use her on my next visit to St. Louis.”


About: I have had my own dogs for my entire life and now care for my childrens' dogs when they go out of town. My neighbors have relied on my to walk their dogs during the day. I am currently retired from my last position as a massage therapist and my own dog of 16 years passed away a year ago. I am home most days, and can give your pet my unconditional attention. I have a fenced yard and live alone so there will be no distractions from caring for you pup. I tend to be away from home only for a couple of hours, if that, most days.

About: I've had my own pets since 1991. I had a rabbit and dog in college and have learned over the decades how to best care for our friends. I've just retired from a busy career, so I know how important it is to find someone to care for your animals when you're away; even if it's just the gym or happy hour after work. I've fostered for several area rescues and know folks have a different idea of appropriate care. I only use fear free methods, because our animals need to know they can trust us. I've had young high energy dogs who need play and long walks and I've cared for my dogs in their last years when they needed additional care or special medical needs including pills, dressings, eye drops and carrying older dogs who aren't as mobile anymore. I would love to get to know your pets and help you give them the best life. I'm currently retired and searching for part time employment. I don't mind early or late night visits since our dogs don't have a 9 to 5 schedule. I do have an active social and volunteering schedule but it's flexible enough to accommodate your needs. I have cared for many dogs who need to be crated or who are door dashers and escape artists. I have a calm energy that helps put pets at ease. I'm a fan of high value treats to make the crate a special place. My personal dogs are crate trained but I know that's not for everyone.

“Tim was great! This was Annie’s first time at a day care and she was a little nervous at first but within no time I received tons of updates of her running around happy as can be! She can’t wait to go back!”


About: WashU graduate and lifelong lover of all small dogs. My household is fully vaccinated, and I will maintain proper social distancing when meeting :) I also offer professional pet photography PLEASE NOTE: Last minute bookings (<36hr notice) will be charged at holiday rate. Daycare = ~10 hour coverage Boarding = ~10-24 hour coverage ..... Hours beyond that may incur an additional fee. I am a professional photographer and can't resist taking pics of animals. So I will definitely send you a ton of pics when hanging out with your pup. Example album: https://bit.ly/2k1jpEL I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs and follow all special guidelines when taking care of your animals. I am also very experienced with special needs pets. I will try to understand your dog and its personality and motivations. Every dog is different, and it's important to treat them as individuals when taking care of them. I have loved many breeds of dogs, including temperamental rescue pit bulls and more boutique breeds like papillon, yorkie, maltese, etc. I am also cat friendly! I love cats. They're crazy lol. I own a business and work from home full time, so my availability is wide open. Any dates and times I am unavailable are marked well in advanced. My schedule is flexible, and I am happy to take repeat/daily dogs too. I live in a pet-free house with a fenced back yard + doggy door, and a large neighborhood to walk around in. My home is safe for your dog to explore, but I will never leave them unattended anywhere.

About: Hi! I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life. I’ve grown up with countless dogs from Black Labs to Basset Hounds and Huskies. I’ve house sat with dogs/cats such as golden retrievers, Bernese’s, Russian blues & calicos. I know what it takes to ensure a dog/cat remains engaged, healthy, and satisfied. I work at home so I am frequently available for quick play, bathroom breaks, and walks when needed or requested. I love animals (huskies especially!). I do not smoke, drink, or go out much. I’m a homebody so I’m constantly available for the cuddles your dog/cat may be in need of. I’ve got a fenced-in backyard that your furry friend can run around in, as well!


About: We like to run!! We are hands on dog people who believe in getting plenty of sunshine and playtime outside if the weather permits. I have been a dog owner from the time I was a child so I’ve always been around dogs. My pup Roxie, who recently passed away, use to enjoy watching animal planet, going for walks at Forest Park and napping in the warmth of the sun. I miss her very much and I’m not looking to get a new companion just yet. I raised my last dog from a pup into his old age so I am well aware of what that involves. I will go the extra mile to make sure your dog has a positive time in my care and that you yourself are satisfied with your experience. I send photo updates to keep intouch as well! I would thoroughly enjoy keeping your pet company. I also love cats and I am more than willing to pet sit them as well. Currently have no pets of my own or children. I am available to do checkups or house sit also. I’m currently working part-tome so I have plenty of spare time to pet sit in your home. I can watch your pet in your home or in my own.I do check ins and play time. Currently accepting dog or cat boarding in my home. I am good with reptiles and also birds. Kid free, pet free home. I currently am able to take dogs to park, pet sit in your home or my own. Mainly cat or dog but I am comfortable with reptile and birds also..Please ask me any questions. I really enjoy all animals company!

“Fatima took such wonderful care of our little Manny! She had excellent communication, was flexible with my scheduling needs, and most importantly Manny LOVED being under her care! I couldn’t recommend Fatima highly enough!”


“My husband and I traveled from Indiana to St Louis for a baseball game and booked Marie for a few hours to watch our pug, Grace. Not only was Marie amazing, her kids were fantastic! All of them love dogs and were genuinely delighted to have Grace with them that day! We will absolutely book Marie next time we are in St Louis, thanks with all our hearts for making us feel welcome! If there were more stars than five I'd give them all!”


“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!”
