“Eleanor was very responsible and our family felt like she was taking care of our dogs well. We got photos of them every day we were away. She was great about responding and getting in touch with any questions or concerns in a timely matter. We will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Nimbus absolutely loves Ugar and he’s been a treasure to have while in ST Louis. Next time I’m out this way and need some friendly dog assistance I know who to call. Thank you again for everything!”
“Stephen, was great! Bonnie was so excited to see Stephen during his visits. I think she would have been happy to go home with him! Argo who has difficulty eating due to pancreatitis was happy and comfortable while mom was away. They were both well cared for and I definitely plan to use Stephen again!”
“I’m only using Brennan from now on! She takes such great photos for me to see of my babies and is always prompt and so good with my boys! Love her!!”
“Lawrence was great with my pets and super communicative with me while I was out of town, appreciated all of the photos he sent and the time he took to get to know my kiddos!”
“Danielle was absolutely amazing! Our boys 🐶 were beyond well taken care of. We loved our daily updates and photos. We could tell our dogs were comfortable and loved while we were gone. Highly recommend and we will definitely be a returning client!”
“Outstanding! I’m sure our dogs will be looking forward to our next vacation since they loved Debra. Lots of communication and updates throughout the trip.”
“William is awesome! 10/10 recommend. We met prior to the booking to ensure a good fit for all parties. He is communicative, seems to care about my baby, and spent the time to take her on good walks as well as valuable playtime. I looked forward to pictures of Maple along with William’s description of the visit after each one! He had mentioned having a girlfriend in town during our meet & greet, so when he asked if she could join for one of the visits I was thrilled! More love for my girl. And I know had I told him I wasn’t comfortable with that he would have respected my choice, too.”
“Andrea was terrific. She did a great job taking care of our cats. We highly recommend her to anyone needing pet sitter services. We will definitely book with Andrea again.”
About: I am known as the go-to pet sitter for all of my friends and family! I have worked with everything from tiny 4 week old puppies to senior pets who need assistance walking and require multiple medications. I am comfortable with giant dogs and I have experience with fearful/aggressive animals. I’m an avid hiker and love to stay active, usually with my dogs. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I have a very flexible schedule so I am available to walk or care for your pet at your convenience! I have a reliable car and don’t mind driving! I have a yard with a secure, 6 foot privacy fence and live in a very walkable neighborhood with three parks near my home. If your pet is more comfortable staying home I am available to take care of them there! I’m a fast learner and I’m eager to learn your pet’s routine!
“Maria is amazing! She took plenty of pictures and kept detailed updates so I felt comfortable knowing my pup was in good hands. She followed all directions and was incredibly diligent during our meeting to make sure everything was clear.”
“Rachael is phenomenal. She went above and beyond taking care of my cats while I was away, especially when one had an unpleasant bathroom situation - I can’t recommend her more highly!”
“She was communicative and went above and beyond for my two kitties :) she was the first person I hired on here, so I’m really happy that my first experience went so well! What a relief that there are hard working people who also care about pets in STL!”
“Your pets will be in such good hands with Nancy! She’s goes above and beyond to care for my cats l- she’s my first choice when I need a pet sitter.”
“I have a senior cat with some health issues requiring medications, so it was a relief to find Brooklyn with her experience in administering medications, and understanding my cat's symptoms and her care. She sent a great update, including pictures from her visit. I really appreciate her support on short notice. Would book again! Thank you, Brooklyn!”

Lauren was great! She took great care of our kitty (Persey) and was flexible and super to work with! Our cat is highly anxious and xenophobic, yet she interacted with Lauren on the first night. We highly recommend her and will definitely book her to care for Persey when we take trips in the future! 😊

Laura is amazing!!! She's always so understanding and willing to work with me when it comes to my pup, any concerns or current things we're working on alongside keeping in the know of what she notices. It's nice to know the person watching your pet takes care of them as if they're their own, so I'd recommend her if you're looking for someone to love your pup!!!!
I’ve been lucky to have Olivia check on my motley crew more than once now and she has been so kind and informative! I know I’ll always get a detailed update and tons of pictures. She continuously goes above and beyond. As a mixed pet / senior dog household, it’s such a relief to have someone I trust will love on my crew.
Jamie was such a rockstar! We had a last minute change of plans around kitten care that meant we were looking for help the day before our trip. Jaimie swooped in like a hero and saved the day. He was friendly, communicative, thorough, and sent us dozens of photos of our happy kittens during his visits. I also really love that he sent a photo of their food bowl and empty litter box each visit as well. When we returned it was to happy, healthy kittens, and everything in the house as it should be. We couldn't have been more thrilled.
Lindsey is absolutely amazing!! I had a personal matter come up, and needed urgent and VERY last minute care for my 2 large dogs for nearly an entire month. I reached out to Lindsey in a pinch, and with nearly no notice, and she got back to me immediately! Not only was she considerate of my situation, she was so professional, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with when scheduling everything! (I had to make a MILLION changes to the schedule, and she was nothing but patient, flexible, and understanding through every change I made!) One of my dogs (I have 2 large dogs!) can be particularly reactive, and I’ve had such a hard time in the past finding someone that he will let get close to him and take care of him. When I came across Lindsey’s profile, I was so pleased to see that she has experience with challenging dogs! While I was still nervous how my reactive dog would be around her, Lindsey assured me of the steps she will take with the experience she has, to ensure the dogs feel comfortable, safe, and trusting around her. And Lindsey did not disappoint! Both of my dogs love her and seemed to warm up to her almost immediately! She always sends me the cutest updates of my pups, too, and is SO wonderful at communicating everything with me (I haven’t been home to see my dogs in almost a month, and I wouldn’t have wanted anyone other than Lindsey to be caring for my dogs during these past few weeks)! She has gone above and beyond, and I cannot recommend her enough! I trust her through and through to take good care of my dogs, and am so grateful for how much love and care she showed them while I’ve been away. If I ever need to book someone to care for my dogs again, I will ALWAYS book Lindsey when I have the chance! 🐶🐶
Lisa did great job taking care of my puppies!. She followed all the instructions and gave them extra love, daily cuddles and special care at the time of thunderstorm, just to make sure they were comfortable. I came home to calm, well taken care of dogs, her love and attention is greatly appreciated!
