“Evelyn is a super responsible home and pet sitter, our Golden girl Pennie just adores her! We are always able to enjoy our trip knowing our home and Golden girl is in very good hands <3”
“Tori was so great! Took good care of all of our animals, was a lovely guest in our home, shared frequent photos and status updates, and was overall a pleasure to work with. Will be rebooking. :)”
“Another successful booking with Chloe for our 3 pups! I received daily photos/videos, daily medication was administered, and the pups were in great spirits upon our return. You can tell they were well cared for.”
“Ashley did an amazing job. Tons of photos and updates of our cat and puppy. She also cleaned our home(kitchen and floors) which was SUCH a treat to come home to after travel! She was amazing!”
“Jennifer took care of our two high energy dogs without any issues! She was incredibly responsive and left our house in great condition. I highly recommend her.”
“Brianna was great with both of dogs! I got daily updates and pics that made me feel so comfortable being away from the dogs. She also took great care of the house. We will for sure be using her again!”
“Ross was great! All of our pets were well taken care of the whole time we were out of town. Our dogs are very particular about their routines so it was great to find someone who could stay with them all weekend. We’re definitely making Ross our go to sitter when we leave town.”
“Zach was amazing with Acacia, she’s super timid and he was very patient with her. I loved receiving photos and updates from him, and he really eased my mind while I was away from Acacia. I hope to work with Zach more in the future! 10/10 service. He also left the house exactly as we asked!”
“We hired Meghan to watch our pets in our home. She was a respectful guest and took wonderful care of our pets! She went above and beyond working with us to reschedule our travel plans due to inclement weather. She provided excellent communication, with lots of updates and pictures of how our pets were doing. We would recommend her to anyone and would love to work with her again. Thanks Meghan!”
“She was absolutely fantastic. Had her watch our pup for 8 days straight at our house. She gave us tons of updates and pictures and asked questions when needed. Thank god Emily is so patient because our dog gave her a really hard time. Also our house was clean when we got home! Will use her again for sure if she isn’t booked up.”
“Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.”
“Hayden did a good job taking care of Jack while I was out of town. She was very attentive to his needs and made me feel comfortable. Communication was good.”
“Julia was very responsive to our messages, very respectful and kept our house in great shape, and sent us pictures of our pup during our time away! She did great!”
About: I’ve had cats all my life and currently own two of my own cats. Many of my friends have larger dogs, and have relied on me to help check on them while they are out of town and take them for walks and have play dates. I love all kinds of dogs and cats! I am currently working from home on Mondays and Fridays, but that will change to working from home on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday in the next couple of weeks. My nights are mostly free and am able to be flexible with my schedule. I will make sure your pet is comfortable, well fed and hydrated, and give them the playtime and snuggles they need! I make sure litter boxes and yards are clean and clean up any accidents that may happen.
“James was amazing with our dogs. We can’t say enough good things about him. He was very accommodating and both our dogs were mad at us when we had to leave. I would highly recommend James and we will definitely use his services again when we are back in the area.”
About: I am a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience, including volunteering at the Humane Society. I provide dependable, caring walks and treat every dog like family. I work full time for the St Louis Blues but I have an hour long lunch, work ends at 4 pm and I have most weekends available. I grew up with dogs my whole life so I am more than comfortable around dogs all shapes and sizes. I love to walk so they'll get plenty of exercise. I volunteer at the humane society so I feel more than comfortable creating a safe environment. I live alone and have no pets so I will be able to give your dog my full attention.
About: I volunteer at the APA animal shelter where I walk and play with all types of dogs. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals including lizards, fish, kittens (2 weeks old), puppies, and turtles! I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time to spend time with your animals and make sure they are well taken care of! I give all pets love and affection with different pets needing different things! For dogs I love to take them for walks and give them lots of belly scratches, and for cats I love to play with them and if they like, pet them!
“Jayde was amazing. She helped us last minute when our normal sitter wasn’t available. She gave both our boys the cuddles, scritches, love and attention they need while we were away. Thank you so much Jayde! We appreciate you!”

Bri was so easy to work with! She was communicative, reliable, and our pets absolutely adored her. We were able to enjoy our vacation because we felt so comfortable with her taking care of things for us. Our pets have never been less stressed out while we were away; they were immediately comfortable with her which says a lot (small neurotic dog and finicky cat). We're so thrilled to have found her.
Jason did a terrific job. He made an immediate connection with our dogs and was very mindful of instructions for the care of our senior dog that requires additional attention. He stayed in constant communication with us and left our home in great condition. Highly recommend!
Haley was absolutely incredible!! She stayed in our home to care for our two dogs and transient cat while we were on vacation. She was extremely communicative, caring, proactive in her approach, trustworthy, and super easy to talk to. She went above and beyond, especially when our flights were delayed and we needed an extra night of care last minute. We are fairly anxious pet parents, but she calmed our nerves immediately. We highly recommend and love Haley!!
Emily was the perfect person for my dog Butters when I went on a trip! This was my first time having someone staying at my house and it was great for my senior dog to be in a comfortable environment. She was super friendly and kind. She sent updates on their cuddle sessions, cute pics, took him for a pup cup and you can tell she really loves dogs! Also she left everything exactly how I left and was very communicative. Highly recommend Emily! Would absolutely love to have her watch my dog on my next trip away.
