“Deborah is outstanding! She took excellent care of Samson and sent me updates and photos with each visit. Samson absolutely loves her. I was completely comfortable having her in my home and taking care of my "son". I would recommend her to anyone and plan on booking with her again in the future. Thanks Deb!! 🐈‍⬛♥️”

About: I’ve been around both cats and dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. Growing up with pets taught me how important it is to provide them with attention, patience, and consistent care. Whether your pet is playful and social or prefers a quieter approach, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I’ll treat your cat or dog with the same care and affection I’d give my own pets. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural and enjoyable part of my daily routine, especially as a teacher with summers off. I love spending my extra time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Being around animals is something I truly enjoy, and I appreciate the chance to fill my days with walks, visits, playtime, and companionship. I’m reliable, attentive, and excited to give each pet the care and attention they deserve I currently care for my two cats at home, so I’m very comfortable with daily cat care routines like feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and recognizing their individual personalities and needs. In addition, I often help care for my parents’ dogs when needed, so I also have experience with feeding, walking, and general dog care. This mix of hands-on experience has made me confident and attentive with both cats and dogs, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.

“Mikayla took great care of my kitties while I was out of the country. My younger cat is especially wary of new people, but even she was snuggling up to Mikayla.”

“Stephen came in clutch for us last minute to take care of our puppy. We messaged him late the night before and he quickly replied and helped us out today. He was very communicative and friendly, and Luna loved him based on the pictures. We will definitely be using him again and cannot thank him enough for helping us and being so nice.”

Saja D.

“My cats were in good hands with Katie checking in on them and spending some time with them as well! She even left some cute treats and toys for them. Katie went above and beyond and also collected my mail while I was out of town. I’ll definitely Italy be reaching back out next time I need a sitter.”

Candis M.

“Natalee came to assist us so quickly when a family member was in the hospital and we needed someone to care for our dog at home! She is responsive, engaging, and our dog was so happy to see her! I would use Natalee for a drop in visit, or overnight stay anytime!”

Emily W.

“Phoebe was a wonderful sitter for my two cats. Each Rover card had updates on how they were acting and multiple pictures of each. One of my cats had an FIV flare-up and she was great about keeping me updated on that. This was my first time booking with Phoebe, but I hope to be a repeat customer!”

About: I have more than 20 years of experience as a dog walker and pet sitter, a degree from SLU in animal behavior and postgraduate studies in animal management. Please note that at any given time, I might have three dogs in the house, so I can only offer my boarding services to dogs that are not aggressive and that get on well with other dogs. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. Your dog will benefit from 3 daily walks and we will be going to the local parks at least once a day. I have a very big fenced garden and I live in a quiet area near Tower Grove, with plenty of green space around us. I also have security camaras, to make sure that the pets are ok when I am not in the house.

“Autumn was an amazing sitter for our cats. She was super responsive and gave us a lot of information about the visits and included many pictures. It was so nice having someone so trustworthy to ease our worries while being away!”

Maud S.

“Hope is absolutely fantastic! My buddies love her. She is responsive, sent pictures and notes, and left my house as clean as she found it. We are using her again soon!”

About: I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. For the past several years, family members, neighbors, and friends in the St. Louis area have trusted me to check in on their dogs, feed them, play with them, stay overnight when needed, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their people are away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m kind, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all personalities. Whether they want a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or just calm company. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and routine. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable and cared for and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m currently searching for full time employment so I’ll have plenty of time to play and take care of your pups! There are occasional weekends where I have family things to attend but please reach out and ask! I have pretty open availability. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medication if needed, playtime, and any house rules. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m attentive to their behavior, energy level, and comfort, and I’m happy to provide updates so you know how your pet is doing. I also treat every client’s home with respect and care, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as instructed.

“Jessica was great when she came to check on our pups! I love knowing my dogs are getting all the attention they need when we have to be at work!”

Kelly W.

“Brennan is the most awesomest !! Forgot to leave a key and she went to pick one up from my parents. Over and above…. Mia is most happy too. 🐕”

Charlie M.

“Ross did a great job with our two cats. He provided exactly the care we requested and spent time playing with our young cat to help her get out that pent up energy! He also provided superior communication. We greatly appreciated his sitting services”

Kevin S.

“Gabbie is great! My pup is pretty shy and going through some health concerns. Gabbie was attentive to what my dog needs, has been consistently on-time and has built up trust with her in the span of a week. Sadie seems really excited when Gabbie comes by and seems to enjoy their mid-day play sessions!”

John D.

“Emily does a great job with Georgia. She’s in tune to her moods & plays when she wants to play. Then lets her chill when she wants to chill.”

Sharon S.

“Reba went above and beyond to take care of my kitty over the holidays. She sent photos and updates every day, and I felt totally at ease while I was away knowing my cat was in such good hands. I couldn't recommend Reba more highly and look forward to booking her again!”

About: My big brother was a black Lab; I've been around dogs my entire life. I started helping with care when I was in high school and I've never stopped. I'm unafraid of barkers, can deal with biters, and can bathe pretty much any dog. I love spending time with them and I'd love to help with yours! I have a single Pittie currently, but have had the privilege to raise a Rat Terrier (👼), a Pitt Bull mix and a German Shepherd/Chow mix in the past. I'm a parent, so I can walk and visit your pals during the day, generally 8 AM to 3 PM. Some weekends may be available, please feel free to ask. Currently, I cannot board your pets, but I hope to be able to do it in the near future. Please check back with me soon!
