“Alix was really great with the cats and even got our shy babies to come out and say hi everyday! She left lots of pictures and also tended to the house by bringing in mail and packages etc. I would definitely book with Alix again!”

“Stephanie saved our trip! She jumped in to care for our pets when our sitter had an emergency. She communicated with me so she was caught on the details about our dogs. I could tell by the pics she provided that our dogs received lots of love and attention.”

“Heather is amazing! She is so great with our babies and makes sure everyone feels so loved while their parents are away. We always know our pets are in good hands with her!”

About: I have taken care of animals for the past 15 years, and have dog and cat watched though out the years. I used to have my own dog walking business. I am currently a college student at the University of Missouri working a part time job and I’m also involved in a few clubs in my community. I have time in the early mornings and later afternoons to watch and walk your fur babies! I pay close attention to pets and make sure all needs are met. I put pets first and like to keep them happy, clean, and safe at all times. Please let me know any additional details or facts about your fur baby so I can make that possible!!
About: I rescued my first pet (cat) and spoiled my second (dog). Have fun playing fetch and taking long walks, and love to hang out with cats too. I have just recently moved back to Missouri from Bozeman, Montana and am always looking to stay busy with side jobs on my time off. I can easily crate dogs (only if asked or necessary) in a client’s home. I can recognize different techniques to use on differently trained animals.
About: We have been pet owners all our lives until recently. We have experience looking after dogs and cats. We would love to fill the gap by helping you out with pet sitting needs. Your fur baby will be treated as part of our family! My husband and I work full time, some days from home. My work is just few minutes away so I am able do potty breaks and walk during lunch. Our schedules are flexible and we can adapt to your needs. We currently don't have any pets at the house. Our yard is not fenced but the neighborhood is very dog friendly with a little nature trail for walks.
About: Growing up I do not remember a moment that my family did not have an animal in our household. I used to always want to spend my time with animals and always had that option. My mom was just as obsessed with animals as I was. There was a point in time that we had two cats and five dogs in the household. I love the connection that people can build with animals and the care that there is for each other. With all of these animals in our house, I got pretty accustomed to washing, feeding, walking, playing, etc with them. My stepdad bought a Rottweiler puppy when I was a teenager, so I was able to watch how he trained the dog and the phases they go through as puppies. Although, I do not own an animal of my own at the moment, I always enjoyed the times when my life had an animal in it. I would greatly enjoy to help others contribute to taking care of their animals with the extra time I have. I currently work part-time as a server with a flexible, open schedule. I would love to spend my free time giving love to all animals. I have a schedule that would allow me to be available to give care to your animals with walks, attention, feeding, and much more! Currently, I live in an apartment complex that does allow pets, but do not have any of my own at the moment. I have dog sat my family's animals for over the past few years, dealing with multiple dogs at once, cats, senior dogs. I would love to expand beyond my family's animals.
“Laura has been amazing! I have booked her a couple times now and she has been a lifesaver! She is great with my fur babies, she is reliable, and always on time! We appreciate her so much!”

“Brandi is top notch in my opinion. Every time she has came over she makes it a point to spend time with my dog and keep on furthering the good manners I’m trying to teach her. I’d recommend here to everyone!!”

“Robin was amazing taking care of our elderly dog . It was one of the nicest get aways we have had in years knowing she was taking such good care of our boy .. Her communication and daily pictures are great. We will be booking her for each of our future needs. Thank so much for caring for Rocky 🐶🐶”

“Makayla, always does a great job with our two pups and cat. Our cat has special healthcare needs and she has made sure she gets the meds she needs. Our dogs absolutely love when she comes over. We will be using her for our pet’s care as long as we can!”

About: I have always had a love for all kinds of animals. Ive enjoyed watching family and friends pets as well as caring for my own pets in my apartment. I'd love to get to know you and your unique pet and make them feel even more loved and appreciated. I have past background knowledge on pet nutrition,hygiene and behavior traits. I am currently starting school in March to gain my pharmacy technician certification, I would have open availability to provide assistance for you and your pets. I do have a dog with me, her name is Maze. Maze is a rescue, she stays in my room and going on walks multiple times a day as well as dog parks, she would love to have a friend. Maze eats 2 times a day once in the morning and once in the evening with a snack (can of tuna/shredded chicken) in the afternoon. Maze talks walks in a harness to provide safely,we do have an extra! I have cats as well, the are allowed to freely roam around with little latches that keep bedroom doors open just enough for them to go in and out, they are also fed twice a day with wet food and have dry kibble out for free feeding through the day, since they have smaller stomachs they eat more frequently, howver the dry food is only filled once it runs out completely, the cats also have a running water fountain as well as other water bowls on elevated surfaces. Their are plenty of pet beds,toys and treats, if their are any allergies please let me know!
“Kaitlyn is a great communicator, especially concerning issues she encountered while taking care of my two cats. One is very shy with new people and wouldn't come out to eat. Together we figured out a solution that worked. She arrived on time for each visit and managed to not set off our alarm. Always a plus, lol.”

About: I have experience with small, medium, and large dogs! As long as I can remember I have always had a dog in my life- whether it be a family pet, a farm watchdog, or a herding dog for our cattle! I love all breeds and will do my very best to provide trustworthy care for your loving pet! I will treat and love your dog just as if it were my own! I have a toy Australian Shepherd named, Wren who is 8 years old and since I didn’t think 1 dog was enough, I got another Australian Shepherd who’s name is Piper and she is 6. Piper warms up to any dog and loves to make new friends! They both would give me 5 stars⭐️ Can’t wait to watch your pets! I currently work from home 2-3 days a week. When I’m on the road or in office for work, I typically get back home around 6:00 pm but have a very flexible schedule and can be home earlier. I have a fenced in yard and my dog Piper gets along with any dog! They will have a blast playing with each other! I will love and care for your pets just as they are my own.
About: I’ve been the go to pet sitter for family members and friends. Whether it’s keeping them company for a couple hours to just stopping by to let them out and check their food/water to watching them for multiple days. I work full time and don’t have the ability to work from home. On weekdays after 5pm I’m free to hang out with your pups! During the weekend I have more flexibility to watch or check on your pets. I don’t have any pets and currently live in an apartment complex. There is a lot of open grass space around my apartment complex and is in a good area to walk in. If you prefer your pup be in a crate if I have to leave that will need to be provided, but as long as they are house trained I have no problem with your dog free-roaming my apartment.

About: I treat every pet like they are my own and focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Over the past four years, I have cared for family and friends’ dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which has helped me become patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I am comfortable caring for energetic puppies, including helping reinforce routines and basic behaviors, as well as older dogs who may need a slower pace, extra patience, medication reminders, or additional attention. I also make it a priority to keep owners updated with communication and pictures so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits well into my routine because I have a flexible schedule throughout most of the week. This summer I would love to care for your furry friends before I move to start my first teaching job! I am organized, dependable, and able to plan my schedule to make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need consistently. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and care. I also keep the home clean and respect the owner’s instructions for routines, medications, crate schedules, or any special needs. I understand that every pet is different, so I adjust my care based on their personality and energy level. Some pets need extra play and activity, while others need a calm environment and patience. I also make communication a priority by sending updates and pictures so owners feel confident and connected while they are away.
“Jenna cared for our full size Golden Doodle, our 4 lb Yorkie and our 2 cats. She did a wonderful job caring for them and sent us the best pet pics! I highly recommend and appreciate Jenna. We plan to reach out to her through Rover again in the future.”
