Allison G.

“Tammy has been doing daily weekday walks with my dog about about two months now and does a fantastic job. She treats my dog with love and care and is very reliable. In rare cases when a scheduling conflict came up, she let me know well in advance so I could plan for it. I couldn’t ask for a better person to walk my dog.”

Leah J.

“Jani is great! Very reliable and handles my dogs so well on their routine walks. I highly recommend her services.”

Missy B.

“Brennan did a fantastic job walking my dog Rusty! She was very flexible and communicative and sent me a bunch of great pics of a happy pup! I know she has tons of experience with all sorts of dogs so she knew exactly how to handle one as energetic as mine. I'd strongly recommend Brennan to anyone in need of a dog walker or sitter.”

About: I have fostered 140 animals over the last 6 years and volunteer at a local animal shelter to walk and bathe dogs. My experience with animals spans from puppies from the age of 3 weeks up to senior dogs up to 14 years old. I am comfortable working with animals with special needs such as dogs with reactivity, the tendency to pull or leash grab, as well as dogs recovering from heartworm and kennel cough. I also have three of my own whom I love dearly. I have a passion for animals and cannot wait to meet your fur baby! I work 4 days a week as a Physical Therapist and have Sunday-Monday off to spend time with your pups/kitty cats! I may open up more availability as I am able. I am proficient in leash management, comfortable walking up to 5 dogs at a time, and pick up on your dog’s cues (fatigue, thirst, discomfort, reactivity, etc.) to ensure a safe environment for your pets.

“Rachel is wonderful! I could tell she really cared about Frank’s wellbeing and she has been super flexible with my crazy schedule. I will be using her again!”

About: I grew up in a family full of vets, animal enthusiasts, and even zoo staff! I have cared for animals of all shapes and sizes- even raccoons, birds, reptiles, rodents, and of course many cats and dogs! I have a pretty regular schedule each week so it is very easy for me to plan around in order to take care of your furry friends. I have extensive knowledge of pet care and nutrition for my own cats and dog, and I will treat your babies as my own while under my care, ensuring they are happy and healthy at all times! Happy to follow any requests or routines.

“Nick was excellent. We needed someone on short notice to take our energetic dog for long walks for 4 days while my husband recouped from a muscle sprain. Nick was responsive, on time each day, sent Rover Cards documenting the map and time of his walks. Great guy. Our dog took to him like a dog takes to a bone. Will definitely use Nick again.”

Margaret E.

“Jessica is the best! Maggie loves her, and she sends me the best pictures of my four-legged baby. I feel so relieved knowing that Maggie is in good hands when I’m away.”

Jennifer B.

“Allison has been dropping in and taking our dog on walks for a few months now and she has been wonderful! She is very prompt, reliable, and communicates well. We would highly recommend!”

About: I've had my own pets since 1991. I had a rabbit and dog in college and have learned over the decades how to best care for our friends. I've just retired from a busy career, so I know how important it is to find someone to care for your animals when you're away; even if it's just the gym or happy hour after work. I've fostered for several area rescues and know folks have a different idea of appropriate care. I only use fear free methods, because our animals need to know they can trust us. I've had young high energy dogs who need play and long walks and I've cared for my dogs in their last years when they needed additional care or special medical needs including pills, dressings, eye drops and carrying older dogs who aren't as mobile anymore. I would love to get to know your pets and help you give them the best life. I'm currently retired and searching for part time employment. I don't mind early or late night visits since our dogs don't have a 9 to 5 schedule. I do have an active social and volunteering schedule but it's flexible enough to accommodate your needs. I have cared for many dogs who need to be crated or who are door dashers and escape artists. I have a calm energy that helps put pets at ease. I'm a fan of high value treats to make the crate a special place. My personal dogs are crate trained but I know that's not for everyone.

About: If you're looking for someone to watch your pets while you're away, then look no further. I have been taking care of my own animals my whole life, and have sat for other people on numerous occasions. I have also assisted with much of the care and feeding of a dog and several cats over the years. I live in South St. Louis City, and I can only really work there or in areas near there, but if you live close to me you will never be without the help you need. I can stay in your house if you'd like me to, but I can't keep other people's pets in my house because I have a very nervous and shy cat who would be made uncomfortable by this and a crazy dog who might scare your pets. I repeat: I can stay in your house or I can just pop in and out to take care of your pets, but I cannot have outside animals stay in my home. I also walk dogs. The rates for that might be a little bit different, but I assure you they will still be affordable. I will be your pet's new best friend and your asset when you are in a pinch or are going somewhere and can't take care of them. I have loved animals since I was a child, and I rarely find one with which I don't get along. I don't have a job which will take me out of town frequently, so I can provide my services as long as they are needed. I look forward to meeting you and your adorable animal friends! I have availability on weekdays as well as weekends Message me and we can talk about scheduling a time for me to walk your dog I will make sure the animal gets whatever care they need I am not a vet though, so if your animal is sickly and/or old then I don't know how well I can care for them

About: I've had/taken care of dogs my whole life. My husband and I love dogs and have a big yard for them to run around in. We often dogsit for family and friends when they are out of town. We lost our fur baby a couple months ago due to old age and frankly we miss him and the energy he brought to our house. Your furbaby (or babies) would have a whole house to themselves and would have the full attention of a loving couple. We live in a great neighborhood for walks and have several parks nearby. Both my husband and I work full time jobs out of the house, but are never gone more than 8 hours at a time. Our routine with our recent furbaby would be walks and breakfast in the morning before work (around 8ish), a walk/play outside after work (around 4ish) and then a bathroom break outside before bed. On weekends we have more time to spend with your dog(s) We understand that every dog is special and has special needs! We are open to all care routines and any oddities your dog may have (we used to have to hide our trash can from our dog before leaving the house 😅). As long as you provide instructions, we feel confident managing any schedules, medical care, oddities, or routines. Your fur baby will be in a loving household that just misses having dogs around all the time.

About: I would love to care for your fur-babies when have to be away. I grew up with dogs and cats throughout my childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood. Starting in 2006, I began caring for others' pets in my home, then in 2018, I had more freedom to start house sitting as well. I prefer to watch your pets at their home, as they are generally more comfortable in their familiar environment, especially while their family is away. I am available full-time, outside of the occasional appointment or event. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. Thanks! I have no pets or young children. I have my own vehicle. I will keep your pet's routine seamless from the time of your departure. I will follow your instructions in order to keep your pets happy and comfortable. Along with your pets, I will treat your home with the utmost respect.

About: I am a proud cat owner who has co-cared for all sorts of dogs over the years. From pitbulls to chihuahuas, I've been challenged and rewarded by all my furry friends. Apart from roommates and partners, I've also cared for many of my friends animals while they were out of town. One of whom (a dog) I had to administer medication orally. I am also comfortable with syringe applications. From a personality standpoint, I have a way with dogs that just comes naturally. I'd call it a commanding presence, although I can be a big softie, too. Always down for a cuddle! For both cats and dogs, know that I will give your pets time to adjust to my presence, aka let them come to me and give them space, so that I can foster a measure of trust between us. When walking your dog expect that I will be focused, confident and vigilant, keeping an eye out for any triggers your dog my have to outdoor stimuli. For every booking I accept there will be pictures provided as well as a detailed summary of our time together. Your pet's safety is my primary concern, so should anything abnormal occur you will be notified in a timely manner. Please leave information regarding diet, medications, general health info, behavioral issues, personality, and hiding spaces. When it comes to daily routine I'd like to keep things as close to their eveyday schedule as possible. Any information about your building, parking, lockbox location, or house rules would be great help. I'm always available to answer any questions you have, so feel free to contact me with any concerns via the Rover phone number provided. Thanks for wading through this with me. Can't wait to meet your special friends. ** Bonded and licensed via Pet Care Insurance (PCI) My best friend and roommate has an elderly cat I help her care for, so pet care is a daily commitment for me. Your pets will receive the same love and care. I am on the job hunt and a DC transplant, so I have a pretty open schedule at the moment and a healthy desire to explore the area with your pups. I am not accepting stays at the moment, but at your residence I intend to give the same care and attention you would. Please let me know of your daily routine, their favorite toys/games, and sociability level. My aim is to build a foundation of trust with your animals and have a safe, fun time together.

“Devon has been walking my dog for a few months & has always been super reliable & responsive - even in bad weather! Also goes above & beyond while dog sitting.”

About: 🤩 I’m new to Rover but not new to pet care — with years of experience and a soft spot for pups and kitties, I’m offering intro rates to welcome new clients.. What makes me different from other sitters is that I bring both heart AND experience. With over a decade of hands-on care for dogs and cats, I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. • 🐾 Senior Pet Care: I’m patient and gentle with older pets, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. • 🐕 Puppy Know-How: From potty training to managing zoomies, I’ve got the energy (and the tricks) to help puppies thrive. • 💊 Medication & Special Care: Comfortable administering pills, supplements, or other special routines. • 🐈 Shy or Anxious Pets: I know how to give them space, build trust, and earn their affection at their pace. Beyond skills, I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and trustworthy. You’ll always know how your pets are doing because I send detailed updates and fun photos — so you can relax knowing they’re in loving hands. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s a big part of my daily life. Right now, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets the attention they deserve. • 🐾 Daily Walks & Drop-Ins: I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings for walks, playtime, and snuggles. • 🐕 Weekends: I keep my weekends open for pet parents who need an extra hand — whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or extended visits. • 🐈 Consistency Matters: I build pet care into my day so your pets have a reliable routine they can count on. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pets in your home or during a walk, I treat every furry family member as if they were my own. • 🐾 In Your Home: I follow your routines closely, from feeding schedules to favorite toys, so your pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I keep doors locked, double-check gates, and make sure everything is just as you left it. • 🐕 On Walks: I use secure leashes/harnesses and stay alert to keep pets safe around traffic, other dogs, and distractions. Safety comes first, fun comes second (but don’t worry, we’ll get plenty of tail wags in). • 🐈 Trust: I respect your space and your home — you can feel confident knowing I’ll treat it with care, and I’ll always provide updates and photos so you know your pets are happy and safe. My goal is for you to relax while you’re away, knowing your pets are not only cared for, but loved. ❤️

About: I've been taking care of three dogs since 9 years old. Walked, fed, played, even trained the a bit with my folks. I've dealt with many kinds of dogs form big to small, to loud and quiet, and even the most hyper ones next to the chill ones. I'm a fast learner and always listen closely to the ones that need more attention. Currently I have no work right now, so afternoons and nights are no problem. Weekends are an open day for me so if you need someone over all day, it won't be a problem. Currently I do not have any pets sadly, however I know when to crate a dog, or if you need them to be. Everyone has a different way of caring for their pets, my only concern would be your explanations on how you would handle a situation, and I'll request my own if needed.

“Clay was fantastic! He was friendly and professional during the meet and greet, and his communication has been responsive and polite. He arrived on time for my pup's walk and sent me a photo.”
