“Shannon was absolutely incredible!! My senior toy poodle loved staying with her and even made some new friends. She was great and sent updates with pictures every few days so I got to see how he was doing. We will definitely be coming back!”



“Erica is a godsend! She is professional, loving, and takes great care of my sweet Dolly. Erica always checks in with adorable pictures, so that I know my furbaby is in good hands while I'm away.”


“Jennifer was amazing. I received daily updates including photos and videos. I came home to two healthy and happy pups and couldn’t have asked for anything more. I think they were sorry to leave. I will definitely rebook if she’ll have us!”


“Paula is wonderful! She is a very kind person who took excellent care of our Lennie. Also, she was very responsive to all of our texts and even texted photos of him. Lennie came home a very happy guy! I highly recommend her and I will definitely work with her again.”


“Kayla and Leo are the best! Leo (Kayla’s pup) is such a sweet heart and was super welcoming in sharing his home with my pup, Rocky. Kayla was so kind, communicative, welcoming of Rocky, and accepting of all of his quirks. I appreciated the frequent updates and pictures of my pup during his stay - it was great knowing that Kayla was taking such good care of Rocky and that he was having a great time! I picked up one happy, healthy pup when I returned from my trip. Would 100% recommend Kayla if you are looking for a safe, inviting place to bring your pup for boarding.”


“Minal was wonderful! Our pup loved spending time with her! She updated us with pictures and videos during our time away that were so fun to watch! She really took care of ours like he was her own. I can’t thank her enough for all the care she provided. She made drop off and pick up easy too. We will definitely book with Minal again.”


“Ben was super patient with our pup. He has a great place for making dogs feel at home. We appreciated his great communication and look forward to many more visits.”


“They made me feel super comfortable when dropping off my cat with how sweetly they treated him. They also have many cats who they take care of very well so I knew my baby would be taken care of. My cat is quite nervous but they were sure to cater towards his needs! They even helped me get him in his kennel for the ride home. 100% would use them again!”


“Our dog seemed thrilled to be staying with Jennifer and Jack. He looked so happy in all of the pictures she sent us. He did all of his favorite things every day: play, sleep, eat, play, sleep. We will definitely book again!!!”


“Adolfo kept me updated with photos which is always so comforting when I have to be away. He knew what he was doing and introduced Libby to the pack with ease. Thank you Adolfo will book again.”


“Fergie was amazing. Very nice and accommodating of my dogs special needs and quirks. I'm very thankful for her being able to handle my 'short notice' request. She walked them daily and sent lots of pics. My pups really love her and they will be visiting again.”


“Jeena did a wonderful job taking care of our dog peanut. Giving him plenty of attention and keeping me and my family updated with photos. She met with us prior to the stay and was very kind. Highly recommended.”


About: I have extensive experience as a veterinary technician at a vet clinic in Illinois. I am able to handle aggressive and overly excited animals and I am able to administer medicine. I am able to restrain dogs and cats, along with any other pet needs. I am currently unemployed and only have a few hours of time filled with volunteering. I would be able to take care of pets any time of the day. I will keep an eye on the pets at all times and make sure they aren't getting into any sort of trouble around the house

“Grace was phenomenal with my pup, Waylon. She sent me frequent updates and took him outside often(even to a wine bar and cafe!), which made me feel very reassured and comfortable with leaving him in her care. I’d definitely book again and couldn’t recommend her enough.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life from my own dog and cat to my family and friends dogs. Family and friends have asked me to feed, walk, stop by for a pee break, and sit their pets. My mom currently has a puppy who I help train and sit so I know a lot about high value treats and can help train your pups if needed. I have also dog sat for senior dogs and know how much extra love and care they may need. I work remotely full time so am available to care for your pet during the work week and or on the weekends while you’re away! In my home, your pet will be treated like family! I work remotely, so I’ll be around to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe, whether that means cozy spots to relax, regular potty breaks, or sticking to their usual routine for feeding, walks, and play. I live near Forest Park.

“We had the best experience with Mandy! Our pups had the best time, and she was so great about keeping us updated and sending pics/videos. It was such a wonderful peace of mind to be able to be on vacation with my family and not have to worry about my fur babies! I have no doubt that they were well cared for and loved. They also had fun playing with her fur baby and cannot wait to go back!”


“Carolyn was hands down the best dog sitter we’ve found in St. Louis. My wife and I left our Bichon Poodle with her and were thrilled with how much she cared for our dog! She sent us pictures of him every day and kept us up to date on how he was doing. Her house and fully fenced in yard were a huge plus too. We will definitely be using Carolyn in the future as our first option for our dog!”


“Kavita was so helpful & quick to respond when we needed a last minute sitter. She took great care of our pup and sent us picture updates throughout the night. Your fur baby will be in great hands with her!”


About: Hi, I’m Maddie! 🐾 I’ve had cats and dogs in my life since I was a baby — from tiny Pomeranians to big, lovable German Shepherds. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors (both dogs and cats!) and love giving pets the care, walks, and attention they deserve. I’m currently a medical resident, which means my schedule shifts weekly — but that actually gives me the flexibility to help care for your pets when you need it most. You can count on me to be reliable, responsible, and trustworthy (I take caring for your furry family members as seriously as I do my patients!). Whether it’s long walks, playtime, snuggles, or just keeping your pets company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐶🐱💛 As a medical resident, my schedule changes week to week, but I have flexibility for daytime, evening, and some weekend visits to fit your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with my own small dog. There’s plenty of room for play indoors, and I have safe, walkable areas nearby for exercise and potty breaks. While I don’t have a yard, I make sure dogs get plenty of fresh air and supervised outdoor time. I can also crate pets upon request to match their routine and keep them comfortable.

Julia D.
“I have known Julia for many years, and can say first hand that she brings genuine love and compassion to all animals! Julia has cared for our Labrador Retriever(Tilly) often and we never worry about her when she is in Julia's care. Julia has provided care both on a daily and an overnight basis. She is a loving caretaker, and she is professional, thoughtful, and reliable. Tilly's joyful reaction whenever she sees Julia speaks for itself! I would recommend Julia unequivocally for anybody's pet sitting needs!”
