About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. From Hogan the schnauzer, Misty the terrier mix to Ramsey the cocker spaniel - they were each special members of my family. As an adult, I had a schnoodle named Coco for 16 beautiful years. From puppy to senior, I did it all. I trained her, gave her nothing but love & comfort and cared for her before she passed (dog diapers, meds and all!). She was family. I’ll treat yours as family too. You’ll be able to count on me and the job will get done with lots of TLC and great communication. I am semi-retired from working in a public high school. I love giving back to my community. I thought this would be another way to do so. I realized since our dog passed away last fall, there is a void of not having a pet around. And since my time is flexible, working for Rover will check a lot of boxes! I will care for your pet and home with utmost care and safety. I will ensure doors are locked, things are left where they belong, and take extra precaution to keep the pet safe on walks or outside. I value cleanliness and being organized in the home and stick to schedules and routines.

About: Welcome! I’m a huge animal lover. After being the go to sitter for many of my friends and gaining a bit more flexibility in my schedule, I decided to expand my services to Rover ☺️ I’m the pet parent to two cats, Kilgore and Corndog. They’ve been with me since around 2018 and they are my world! 🌍 I know you like feel the same way about your animal companions I like to go above and beyond making sure your pets basic needs are being taken care of. I want to ensure that they are happy and given comfort while you’re away. 🐶 🐱 It’s important you get your pet the right sitter. I work a part time job, usually closings (2-8 pm). Most of the time my shifts are between 4-6 hours. I live in the Lindenwood Park area. I get around by e-bike and public transport, so my service radius stays close to home. I like this because I get to know my neighbors and community! 🏘️ But please consider this before booking me if you require tight time constraints. Dog walking/Pet Drop Ins: 🦮 My work schedule is sporadic and my availability can be a bit unpredictable, thus I’m currently unavailable for daily walks/drop ins. If you need a back up walker or only need walks done sporadically, I’m here for you to contact! I still like to do meet and greets when possible, but may be available with short notice I am much more available for over nights. As I’ve said, my daily schedule can be a bit inconsistent. Please be aware I could be working anywhere from 2-6 hours. Working hours could fall between 6 am and 9 pm. Additionally, I’d like to know your pets routines around bed time… where/when they sleep. Since I’m sitting your home as well, let me know if there’s anything I need to know or do (when to roll trash bins to the curb, where to put any mail/packages you receive) 🚮📪 For my own comfort I require a sleeping area that is prepped with fresh sheets and pillow cases. Leaving your space in a condition of general cleanliness is also essential, I promise to do the same 🙂

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I only recently, in the past year, started taking care of other people’s pups and I really enjoy it. I currently have no pets of my own. Update: I used to only take one family at a time. I will still do that for my regulars, but now I am open to taking more than on family at a time if the dogs are compatible. Im a homebody currently working very part time and am very available for your pups. I know everyone on here says how much they love dogs, but i do the most! I love having a dog around to love on, as does my son. I have a house with a decent sized yard, but unfortunately it's not fenced. I will be sure to check in with you and send photos.

Lauren B.
“I wholeheartedly recommend my spouse as a truly exceptional pet caregiver. Her love for animals is evident in everything she does—from the way she gently speaks to them, to the thoughtful care she provides every single day. Whether it's feeding, walking, grooming, or simply spending quality time with pets, she approaches each task with patience, responsibility, and genuine affection. What sets her apart is her deep understanding of animals' needs and emotions. She’s incredibly attentive to their well-being and always goes the extra mile to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Our own pets absolutely adore her, and it's easy to see why—she treats them like family. If you're looking for someone who is not only dependable and trustworthy but also truly passionate about animals, you couldn’t ask for a better caregiver.”
