“Greta is fantastic! She was very responsive both prior to our trip when we were planning things out and while we were away. I felt very reassured with my pets in her care. Two of my pets are older and have special needs, and she dealt with them wonderfully. It really relieved a lot of stress knowing they were being cared for so well. My house was in great shape when I returned, very nice to return home and be able to just settle in. For future pet needs I will definitely reach out to Greta again!!”


“McKaylyn was wonderful, she communicated promptly and sent tons of pictures of the pups while we were gone for a week. We came home to very happy pups 🙂”


“Cynthia did a great job dog sitting my Saint Bernard. She sent updates and photos throughout the stay so that I knew my little guy was taken care of. When I got home he was happy and stress-free!”


“Aubrey was wonderful staying in my home and caring for my dog and cat. She stayed in touch during our vacation which gave me peace of mind that all was good. I will definitely request Aubrey in the future!”



“We found Heather very last minute after our other dog sitter cancelled on us. Heather came in and helped with our very anxious 2 year old Nia. She came in and was greeted by a very anxious and scared Nia but was very patient with her and Nia eventually came around and by the end, they were best buds. Heather also helped with our very old cocker spaniel who is deaf and not the greatest at going outside to potty. We can’t say enough kind words about Heather. She is caring, responsible and has vet tech experience. We will definitely use her again!”


About: Hello! I’m located in Stl! I have 9+ years working with dogs professionally. I’m a professional trainer, who also does anything from sitting, walking, being a friend, whatever your pup needs in particular! I have 12 years experience owning dogs, and generally caring for them. I’m currently pursuing a bachelors degree for canine behavior studies & science, as well as training courses (one is GoodPup through Rover’s program). I have studied under two trainers with 35 years of experience. I have two wonderful pups of my own. I promise to treat yours just like I treat mine - with love, care, and respect! I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, personalities, and sizes. Feel free to message with any questions or concerns! Thank you :) My schedule is flexible! I am available most days: morning, evening, or night. Message me and I will let you know if I’m not available - and we can work something out! About my home (for boarding): I have a home with a large fenced in yard, there is two well trained dogs on property! Both are very friendly to other dogs. We have lots of space for walks, and lots of toys to play with! You’re welcome to view to property upon drop off, or see it via pictures! I care for pets by; listening carefully to your instructions and input. I also am well versed in dog body language and behavior, so pairing that with your instructions will help me greatly to understand your pup and make sure they have the best time possible! I will also make sure they of course go out frequently, always have water, are happy and mentally and physically stimulated! There’s many other ways I don’t have room to fit in here so, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out!

“TeAsia has done house sitting for us several times now, caring for our 14 year old dog and cat. She does great with our dog that has some mobility limitations. Is very responsive and makes sure to send us photos while we are away! Highly recommend if you are looking for a good sitter.”


“Great house and dog sitter! She sent lots of updates and I appreciated all the pictures. Will definitely use her again. The pups loved her!”


“Bridget is a must book for taking care of your fur babies! She was on time, kind and gave us updates throughout the stay with pictures. Thank you Bridget”

“Did a great job watching my pets!”



About: I have taken care of different sized dogs since I was a teen. I have experience in hand feeding and drinking for dogs who are ill. Taught dogs to walk on a leash, and basic commands and tricks with my own dogs. Experienced with Australian Shepherds, Australian Kelpies, Labrador Retrievers, Doodles, and mixed breed small dogs. Dogs have different energy levels so you have to adapt care to their specific age and breed. I do not walk dogs in the heat of the day or if the pavement is to hot so your furry friend can stay healthy. I prefer to walk your companion early in the morning or in the evening. I am currently retired and looking for ways to fill my time doing things that I love! I have a lot of time to spend with your fur baby! I do not leave small dogs unattended when going out in a yard even if it is fenced. I do not walk dogs in the heat of the day in the or if the pavement is too hot to the touch. My dog is currently recovering from a illness and she is being hand fed and at times drinking from your hand. She is older so we walk at her pace. We take all of our dogs to obedience classes and work with them regularly so they are good dog citizens. Water is always left out and I encourage the dog to drink after walks. I follow the feeding instructions given by friends and family members for their pet's. Treats are given at training and when we leave to go somewhere. Myself and my husband are the people who pick up a lost dog if they allow us to and take them home or to shelter so they can be reunited with their families.

“Colleen stood out immediately from other caregivers because of her focus on details and learning everything necessary to provide the best care for our dogs during her pre stay visit. She asked many thorough questions and took faithful notes about our pups many needed medications, special diet, health conditions and outdoor routines. We could tell how important it was to her that our dogs receive the right amount of attention and the least possible disruption during our absence. Because our dogs are seniors and may react if left alone for too long, she cheerfully arranged her schedule to stay throughout the day and overnight. Colleen also asked about our home, any expected visitors, watering of plants, how we wanted the mail and packages handled, along with any areas the pups were not allowed. She made sure she had our vet's information, along with a nearby neighbor she could call if needed. Colleen also sent many pictures and videos so we could see for ourselves that they were having a good time and in good hands. Her professionalism gave us the confidence and comfort level to enjoy our time away from home. As a welcome bonus, linens were washed, dried and dishwasher had been run. If any of these things are important to you then we would strongly recommend you consider hiring Colleen.”


“Was our 1st time using Ella and it was amazing. Our dogs were very well taken care of and we were updated often. Great sitter. We will definitely use her again.”


About: I've spent five plus years researching and learning about animal care and behavior, namely cats with some knowledge of dogs as well. Eager and willing to learn more to make sure an animal is cared for and enriched. I've lived with cats of my own for about a year and a half and have experience maintaining litter boxes, trimming claws, administering oral medications and topical flea treatments and socializing kittens. I also have a bit of experience caring for friends' snakes and rodents. Looking to volunteer at an animal shelter to gain more experience with animals, but otherwise unemployed and available pretty much every hour of every day! I can monitor and play with cats and small dogs in their own homes, give medication or baths as necessary and feed them meals. Able to follow step-by-step instructions to a T. Attentive and able to provide owners with pictures, updates and any health concerns that may arise. Plenty of cuddles will also be in order.

“Conor was an amazing dog sitter for our dog, Jack! He had great communication, sent pictures regularly and gave an overall sense of comfort knowing he was not only caring for our beloved dog but also being an extra set of eyes on our house while we were away. Usually when we get back from a trip Jack is kind of droopy and sad that we left. This time he was all wags and kisses the instant we walked in the door. Conor will definitely be our first contact when planning trips in the future.”


“Reliable and excellent. Thanks for everything.”

“Did a great job watching my pets!”




Melissa B.
“Melissa is a wonderful person. She treats all dogs as if they were her own. If she sees a dog she always wants to meet it and talk to the owner's to get to know it. If she goes to a friend's house she will check on their dogs and usually brings treats or a toy for them. Dogs can't wait to see her. One of our friends would only trim their dog's nails when Melissa was there to help. Melissa has a special bond with dogs. She can work with dogs that don't walk on a leash well and make the walk enjoyable for the dog and her. Melissa goes out of her way to make dogs happy. Whether it's playing, walking, or just giving the dog the attention the dog is craving, she is always happy to do it. I would recommend Melissa for any of your dogs needs.”

Nadia is a wonderful attentive sitter! The dogs loved her. She sent us lots of pics and great communication. She even let us know when they were getting a bad storm to see if we had anything special She needed to know, like if they get scared or do they need any medicine or special care. It was the first time leaving our dogs with somebody for that long and every went great. I will definitely be using her again.

TeAsia was a perfect fit for Gracie! This is the first time we have used an in home sitting service and we are very pleased with the experience. A friend recommended the service and although, I was a little nervous at first, everything went well. TeAsia was a good communicator and sent great pictures. She walked Gracie twice a day as requested. The house was neat and clean when we returned. She washed out all the dog food containers that I had prepped. Thank you, TeAsia for taking such good care of Gracie. You made the trip so much more relaxing, knowing she was in good hands.

Carla is fantastic. She took excellent care or our Stella and our home. Very consciousness and professional. We'll definitely have her back!
