“Nicky was wonderful with the cats while we were gone! Our shy kitty didn’t stay hidden which has never happened before. It’s such a relief knowing your pets are well cared for when you’re gone!”
“Beckett went above and beyond while taking care of my kitty. I felt very comfortable knowing she would be checking on her. I am very appreciative of her caring for mine as she would hers!”
“This is our first time using Rover; we were a bit anxious about having a stranger come into our home and take care of our kitties, however Raquel “Rockey” did a fantastic job taking care of our kitties while we were away; one kitty is elderly, blind, history of a stroke and takes twice a day medication for high blood pressure (oral- one liquid, one tablet), one is a fearful. Rockey’s twice daily “report card,” on the rover app, kept us updated. We will definitely use again. Thank you, Rockey!”
“This was our second time using them to watch our animals, they just watched our cats this time & they did a great job! They regularly kept us up to date with pictures & took the time to give them some lovings & play time on top of keeping the litter boxes clean & feeding them. They're definitely one of our regulars now that we'll always trust with our babies!”
“Finding a reliable and caring cat sitter can be a challenge, but I am beyond grateful to have found Tenli. She demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism and genuine affection for my cats. She took the time to understand my pet's unique needs, preferences, and routines, ensuring a seamless transition during my absence. Last minute she even added an additional day on short notice. Throughout the cat-sitting period, Tenli maintained excellent communication, providing regular updates and even sending adorable pictures of my cats. It was incredibly reassuring to know that my cats were not only well cared for but also receiving plenty of love and attention in my absence. Additionally, she diligently followed feeding instructions and kept the litter box clean. I returned home to content and relaxed cats, clearly indicating the exceptional care provided by Tenli. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter. She truly exceeded my expectations, and I will undoubtedly be seeking her services again in the future. Thank you, Tenli, for your outstanding care and devotion to my beloved pets. You are a true gem in the world of cat sitters!”
“Sammy is very conscientious and kind. She always gives me a detailed report, which gives me a great deal of comfort that Marli is well cared for.”
About: I got my first dog in middle school and my own puppy in 2019 which have been well taken care of if not a little spoiled. I did a puppy sitting job for a short while in 2024 and loved it so much. I'm available most days of the week for overnight visits if necessary. I'm not very busy so I'm usually open all day to play with your pups. I will stay within the provided boundaries and keep your dogs safe at home. I will be sure to keep them in sight at all times to keep them safe. Of course any accidents can be cleaned up as well.
“Anna was excellent! Showed up everyday and took great care of our cats. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Jim did an amazing job with both our dogs! We felt so comfortable entrusting them to him. Our pups were very happy and the photos and notes left by Jim prove it!”
“My cat had a wonderful week! Thanks for your great care!”
“Nolan checked in on my cat Ophelia! He replied quickly to my request and was very polite. He sent me pictures from his check in which I loved! He played with her and she seemed to really like him! He even left me a note before he left! I will definitely book with Nolan again!”
About: I have had a pet throughout my whole life. I went to Veterinary Technician school and have worked with animals since! I also have a bachelors in Animal Science so I have some experience with larger pets as well! I currently do work a full time job, but I am looking to reconnect with animals in any way I can! I provide wonderful care and spend quality time with your pet whether it's a simple potty break or a weekend watch! I spend time with them outside of what I am there for! I do my best to learn the house rules and what the pet knows is ok and what isn't ok to do. Everyone is unique and each pet has their own type of training. I can work with all!
About: I grew up on a small farm in Iowa always surrounded by animals - indoor and out. As an adult I've had a shihpoo, yellow lab, and now have two lovable German Shorthair Pointers. Our old man Benson (11) and energetic pup Luna (2) are lovingly referred to as snuggle pigs. And they get ALL the snuggles as would your fur babies in our house. I'm able to care for puppies - seniors and am more than happy to follow any and all instructions to ensure your fur baby is given the top care. I have an odd work schedule as I take 24 hour call shifts where I'm often home. I will only accept sitting requests for times I'm available to provide adequate care to your furbabies! I have a fenced in yard for those staying with us. We have a lovely neighborhood for dog walks and am flexible to provide whatever else might be warranted for your pets stay.
“We were so happy that we chose Sally to watch our cat. She is excellent beyond our expectations. We highly recommend her as a pet sitter; you can be assured that you pet will be loved and well cared for.”
About: I always had dogs and cats on my house! Currently have 2 great cats! We have a closed backyard for cats and dogs to play with! Anytime of the week works if I am not traveling for work. Cats and dogs are welcome overnight! Most of Weekends works for us and during the week only if I don't travel. Our cats are mainly indoor but they love to be at our back yard that is fully fenced. Same for dogs! Nothing they can be harmed with in our yard and or in house. Also, we do have 2 kids that love animals! Make sure your pet like kids.
“Emily did a fantastic job watching our kitties while we were out of town. She was personable, professional and our cats loved her!”
About: I have grown up in house full of pets my entire life, and am known within my family as an animal lover, I’m the one everyone calls when they need someone to watch their pets cause I love being around them and spending time with them. I can’t wait to meet and love your pets!! I am currently a student at Kirkwood community college, my schedule is pretty flexible but early mornings and mid to late afternoon works the best in my schedule I currently live in an apartment close to the Kirkwood campus, me and my three roommates don’t have any pets, but we live in a Great walking location
“My pup struggled to adjust to having someone visit our home and reilly went above and beyond to try and allow her to adjust and be comfortable. couldn’t ask any more!”
About: I've always been passionate about dogs and can hardly remember a time when I didn't have one of these amazing, loyal companions by my side. I've been dog sitting for friends and family members for the past five years, and I've enjoyed it so much that I've decided to branch out so I can meet even more fur friends. I also do dog training/owner coaching, and I believe it's never too late to teach a dog new tricks. I work part time, and most of my work is done at home, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with my fur friends. I have a huge back yard with a 6 ft privacy fence for ample room to run and play and even a doggie pool to splash around in to stay cool. My house is a couple blocks down from the trail for my fur friends who love to go for walks to get some of that extra energy out.
About: I have dog sat for friends, family members and coworkers for many years! I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. Love them all! I have a fairly flexible job so most days can get away mid day to let out animals. With enough notice I can do overnight stays as well. I would feel most comfortable caring for your pet in a familiar environment to them. That way they are most comfortable and don’t have to adapt to a new person and a new environment simultaneously!

Noah S.
“Our family had the opportunity to have Noah provide our 3 cats with care while we were out of town over several days. He was prompt and visited when he was scheduled to be there, taking care of the pets with food and water. In addition, he made sure that each pet was checked in on and those that wanted some loving got it. Those that wanted to hide were allowed to do so, but he did physically ensure that all pets were in a good place and he let us know that. This helped my family have a better short trip knowing our pets were well taken care of.”
