House Sitting in Saint Robert

“I can’t speak highly enough about Rick. I’m new to the area and recently adopted a second golden retriever puppy. Rick watched them both for my first trip since I got the puppy and put my mind at ease. Lots of pics and reports! Best pup sitter ever!”

“Billy just loved James! He has a great day with him. When we picked him up he didn’t want to leave! I couldn’t believe it.”

About: Hello! My name is Melissa, and thanks for checking out my profile. Im new to Rover, but not animals care. I had a steady client, house sitting two dogs, but that is now too far away. That job was in-house care with my dog and all that included all that comes with it, feeding, playing and much more. Please let me know if I can be the one to help you! I've been an optician for 7yrs and am studying to get special certification. I do work part time as an optician locally. The job is only few days a week from 9-4. With enough notice I can make changes in regards to scheduling. Besides that I love going to the river with my dog or am just as happy sitting on the couch. I like a good schedule: something for me to follow, to know exactly what you expect and need. My dog and I walk in the mornings and after work or let out back on a lead, depending on weather. I am always outside with her. I take care of my cat litter everyday or every other. Swiffer everyday! I don't know how the litter travels everywhere!! Drives me nuts!

“Crystal took exceptional care of my dogs. She spent a week at my house with my dogs and shared photos and gave me updates everyday. When I got home, the dogs were happy, fed, and clearly got a lot of love in my absence! My house was just as I left it as well! I couldn't recommend her more!”

“Kendal was great. Buster loved Kendal and I know will be anxious for her to return. She communicated very well while we were away and sent some great pictures. She even left us brownies and they are fabulous. Thanks so much for caring for Buster and our home Kendal.”

“Great dogsitter! Would definitely recommend!”

“Cassidy made the process so easy and stress free, even as things came up she was adaptable and was so great to work with. It was clear that she treated Ruby like one of her own in making sure she had everything she needed. She gave me enough updates and pictures that I knew Ruby was happy, relaxed, and being well cared for. So grateful for her and can’t wait to have her back again!”

About: I have always grown up in a house with at least one dog. We also have had fish, a cat, and a lizard. Outside of my house, I have had experience sitting dozens of animals including dogs, cats, fish, chickens, and ducks. Of the animals some were puppies and some were elderly with physical limitations. Of the dates I am available, I should be open the entire day. I do not have a lot of other commitments during the summer which gives me a very open schedule. I have a huge heart for animals, especially dogs. Any time I am in charge of caring for an animal I do more than the bare minimum to keep them alive. I make sure to give them extra attention and give them plenty of exercise to ensure the best possible experience for both the animals and the family. I believe pets deserve more than just being fed twice a day, they deserve plenty of attention and quality time just like a human.

“Overall really happy with my experience with Elizabeth. This was my first time doing the house sitter option. She came over ahead of time to meet my doggos and get situated understanding all of there needs. She also did a great job keeping me updated throughout the time I was away. No complaints here! Thank you!”

About: They will love that I take very good care of cats and dogs. I have had both in my own home and love playing with them and caring for them; taking dogs on walks several times a day. I am available and flexible with hours to work around your schedule and my own. I have experience with both small and larger dogs as well as cats too. I am a huge animal lover and I will make sure your pet is very well taken care of and is provided with the utmost love and attention it needs. Growing up I have always been around animals and so I’ve grown up helping take care of them and will do the same for your furry family member.

About: I did dog walking and dog sitting during high school for family friends and people in my neighborhood. I love animals and am willing to learn more about caring for them with your help. I currently own a 2 year old male cat and had a male dog in high school so I have experience raising and caring for animals as well. I am in the military stationed at JBLM. I am available on nights and weekends, with very few exceptions and can stay at the owner’s home dependent on where they live. I prefer to house sit in others homes, as mine is not very large on the inside. However, I have a park and dog park down the street from my home where other dogs often play.

“Laura was great with our 2 pups! She sent us plenty of picture updates while we were gone and you can tell they were given the same love from her as we give to them. I am grateful for her awesome personality and even more grateful for her time spent with our pups. Thank you, Laura!”

About: I have had dogs since I was 10 years old! I currently own 2 dogs, one which I’ve had since she was 8 weeks old and she’s currently 9 and another who I adopted from the shelter last year and is currently 7. I’m very patient and loving with all dogs and have a keen sense of what a dog needs especially in an anxiety ridden situation! I am full time military but I am willing to watch dogs on the weekends or days that I am off! Trying to fill my time with things that make me happy, so what better way than to spend it with dogs!?! I have a fenced in back yard and 2 friendly pups of my own to keep yours company! I am able to crate your dog or let it free roam the house depending on your preferences. I allow my animals and yours on my furniture.

“I believe Alexis would make a great caregiver, I’ve known Lexie for years and she has helped care for my animals when I have been out of town. Caring for my animals isn’t easy ether I have a lot so it’s a lot of responsibility and Lexie never failed doing so. Lexie also works at a vet so not only is she around her animals everyday she’s around all kinds of animals helping them to get better.”

“Katie S did a very good job spending time with my dogs. They really liked her. She gave them the cuddle time and attention they needed. She walked them twice a day. She also played ball with max throughout the day. They are happy pups. Both my pups were in an amazing mood when I came home. They have not been this way in the past when we have boarded them at the vets. So this was a nice change.”

“Haidyn took great care of my dog while I was away for a few days. She sent photos each day and was very quick to respond to my inquiries. Will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Gianna is the most loving pet owner I know. She has two very well behaved (that she trained herself) dogs that are great around other pets. Gianna is patient and attentive to her lovely dogs and is always happy to reward them with love and treats! Gianna loves taking her pets on walks and hikes, but is always down for some snuggles on the couch! I couldn’t recommend Gianna enough to take care of anyones pet!”

“Having known Abbey for many years now, I can say with complete certainty that's she is a kind, responsible individual. Having grown up on a farm, Abbey is accustomed to animals of all kinds and shows equal respect and care to all. I have met both of Abbey's family dogs and know them to be gentle and well cared for. I am positive your furry friend will be safe, happy, and loved immensely in Abbey's capable hands.”

About: I've had my dog Molly for over two years and have always given her the love and attention she deserves. I love all pets and am very good at caring for all of their needs. Patience is my biggest strength, as I know that each animal is different and needs time to adjust to a new situation for a few days. I recently moved to the Fort Leonard Wood area and work at a job on base everyday from 8-4. Luckily my job is very flexible, so I go home for lunch almost every day to let my dog out. After work I take her for an hour long walk on a nearby trail, and sometimes get her to the dog park on base as well. On weekends I am home most of the day and spend it either hanging outside with my dog or taking her to walking trails or dog parks. I have a fenced yard and lots of room for pets to run around outside. There also are multiple rooms within my house that they can run around in and explore.

“Bette is amazing with our dogs! She is always our first choice as a sitter and always takes great care of of them; loving them as if they were her own pups.”
