“Paige was absolutely wonderful. We have 3 of the toughest dogs to spend 11 days with, and she did an amazing job. We came home to a clean house and 3 happy dogs. My dogs are usually very anxious and upset when we leave, and they seemed very happy and well cared for while we were gone. We will 100% be using Paige again. I cannot say enough about how amazing she is!”

4. Morgan & Mary V.
“What an absolute treasure to have Mary and Morgan taking care of my precious fur babies and my house full of plants, too! They were amazing and made me feel so confident in the care they provided to my two 90lbs people-loving lap- dogs! In fact Mary showered them with so much love and attention, I think they were hoping she was with me when I came home! Excellent communication prior, during, and day of return-even a special treat when I arrived back! Highly recommend this dynamic duo for your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort as well as your own peace of mind while traveling! Thank you ladies!”

About: I am a Registered Nurse but am working part time and have time to take care of your animals. I have one large and two small silly, fun-loving pups that would love to have a friend for the day, or even to just go on a long walk with. We would enjoy the company. We have used Rover many times ourselves and I look forward to being as great to you and your pups as everyone has been to me and mine. If you have a cat that needs to be visited, I would be more than happy to check in on them as well. Have a happy vacation and rest easy knowing that your pets will be very well cared for! I would love to play with or walk your puppies! We have a park sized yard area for safe outside play. We'll give out lots of love and pets! I have an unfenced yard and 3 happy dogs to keep yours company. Do not fear, if your dog needs time away from other dogs, they can easily be separated.
17. Madeline D.
“Madeline watched my cat Milo for a few days last year. No issues. She is a sweet girl and Milo liked her. If she still lived in St. Louis I would have her back to watch him again. She sent lots of pictures which was nice to receive while I was gone.”

20. Jennifer D.
About: I have had dogs since I was tiny. My neighbor/mentor called me an animal whisperer as a teenager and still brags about me to this day. 🥰👌 I breed, train, and board dogs for a living and try to keep an open schedule so I can be available when needed. My schedule is open so I am available most days. Though I am available on short notice often, I doo prefer as much notice as possible. I am available for inhome care within a 25 mile radius of my home. I am also available for care in my home. I work from home and love in the country.
