“Great service! Brad is an excellent communicator, and took great care of our dog and home. He kept me up to date and was always fast to reply. Our house was spotless when we returned and he was very tidy (which was also important to us).”


“Hailey did a great job with my 2 dogs when we went out of town for the weekend! She is very reliable, kept us informed on how our dogs were doing and sent some great pictures! It's very obvious she's a dog lover through and through and we would definitely use her again!”


“Emma was extremely pleasant upon first meeting her and was very accommodating to my dog. While away, my dog suffered a medical emergency and because of Emma’s attention to detail, understanding of canine behavior and quick decision making, my dog survived a very dire situation. Although this is never how I would want any pet sitting experience to go, this has given me the utmost and complete trust and faith in Emma to watch my pet(s) and she will always be my first and preferred choice. Emma was very attentive to all of my dog’s needs during their time together and has even followed up during his recovery to check in on him. She is truly a kind, caring, and compassionate pet sitter and I would give her 10/5 stars if I could.”


“Anna did an amazing job with my 3 babies!! She gave me daily updates and her mom even came by during the day to help take them out. This is our 3rd time using her & we will continue to do so!”


About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since age 5. My friend's neighbors and family have all trusted me to care for their animals. Including feeding, bathing, & walking. Rover is my fulltime job, I am available Monday through Friday daytime 11:00am-4:00pm & some Sundays in the areas of Ste Genevieve, Perryville, Festus, Bloomsdale,and Farmington. I am open to do day visits and dog walks. Please let me know the Sunday before for the week what you need! This leaves plenty of time for puppy loving! ❤️ I currently have a very gentle loving puppy who loves to play indoors & outdoors. So in my home your dog will have some company 😀 I do not have a fenced in yard which is a challenge so we go on walks in the neighborhood & have a nearby park we enjoy going to so no worries! We have lots of fun and exercise! We play games outside and inside.

“Nina took great care of my 3 fur babies in our home for a few days. She sent photos and kept us posted on how they were doing, medications, etc. Really appreciate her attentiveness and communication.”


“Lily was a great stand in for our dog sitter situation! It is the first time we’ve used Rover. She sent photos and updates every day. They seemed to take to her quickly and were so well cared for! Our dogs are large breeds with some ailments and take medication, so it was vital she was comfortable with both. She did such a great job!! Thank you, Lily! Luna and Stella loved the attention and we appreciate knowing they were taken care of just as we would do! We look forward to booking with you again!”


“Emma went above and beyond and was amazing to have at our house when we had to book last minute! Everything was in order and tidy when we got back. Communication was great and every picture sent our doggo Sweets looked so happy and definitely very well loved! She even watered our plants and they are just thriving! Thanks for showing our pup love and care like she was your own!”


“Kenzie was amazing with our two dogs. She took wonderful care of them and our home. I would recommend her to anyone. She went above what was asked of her. I will definitely be asking for her again.”

About: I used to foster dogs. My yard is pretty big and I have a doggie door. My dogs do not mind visitors. I am off work during the summer and all major holidays. I am a teacher so I am off for the summers. When school is in session, I get off early and I am usually home before 4pm. I have a fenced in yard that can be accessed by a doggie door. I have 3 small dogs. I walk them and play with them on a regular basis. I also have 2 cats.

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small pets. Along with volunteering at a local rescue, I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I care for my own dogs every day and often help friends with their pets. I also volunteer regularly at a local rescue. Pet care is a natural part of my schedule, so I’m comfortable handling different animals and their needs. I ensure pets are safe and comfortable by maintaining a clean and secure environment. Whether at my home or yours, I follow established routines and any specific instructions to provide consistent care. Communication is clear and timely to keep owners informed.

About: I have a miniature bernedoodle that is my baby. I love all dogs and I have no met a dog that I do not get along with. I make sure that the dog is comfortable with me before any interaction. I am a very upbeat and bubbly person who enjoys walks and exercise! I am an early bird so I do not mind getting anywhere early. During the week, I am at the gym early in the am and then take my dog to my parents to play with their dog a few times a week. I talk my walk just about everyday of the week and it’s a great thing to do for both of us and we both enjoy it. In the evenings, I try to talk her for another walk if I can when the weather is nice. Most evenings, I am home and playing with my own dog. I plan on offering potty breaks and dog walking. I really make sure that the pets are taken care of and have all they need. For my own dog, when she stays at home by herself a couple times a week, I make sure she has toys and a radio on so it’s not dead silence. As soon as I get home, I take her out and play with her outside and get her to run out her wiggles.

About: I grew up in the country taking care of animals. I own my own dog and cat. I have over 15 years experience caring for animals. I have open availability. I am available for walks and drop ins at anytime and am available for overnight sitting. I am an early riser and am up around 4 am every day. I believe routine is vital to your pet’s life. I will also follow your instructions completely and work with your needs. I believe pets our part of the family and treat them as such.

About: I have owned, been surrounded by, or been trusted to watch dogs for most of my life. Currently only own a cat so hoping to enjoy dogs on here until I get a dog! I currently work night shift and so I am available afternoons and weekends. I’m very flexible and would love to get to know your pet soon! I try to take advantage of walks and use them as an opportunity to burn off some energy so the pup gets a nice nap after. I will do what it takes to make sure the tail is wagging next time I walk in the door.

She’s dependable, compassionate, and incredibly intuitive when it comes to animal behavior. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or simply offering a calm presence, she goes above and beyond to ensure every dog feels safe and cared for.”
