“Jamie and Aaron are awesome! They offered a meet-and-greet a few days before our pup's visit, giving us a chance to meet them, their two dogs, and cats. From the moment you meet them, you can tell they really love animals and want to make each of their "guests" feel safe and at home. In fact, I think Row felt so at home at Jamie and Aaron's, he would have been happy to move in! Jamie kept us updated and sent pictures and videos throughout our trip - it was so fun to see him playing with their pups and snuggling in with them on the couch. We'll gladly book another stay with Jamie and Aaron!”
“Gizmo loves to go to Kelly’s. It’s so comforting to know that he’s being taken care of while I’m gone. My daughter dropped him off this time and it was the first time that she saw that he just really loves to go to Kelly’s. When we get about a block away from the house he starts yipping and then when we walk to the house, he’s pulling at the leash trying to get to the front door. he just loves it there.”
“Our pit was so happy and calm after a week with Nicole; it felt less like boarding and more like leaving family with family. We are very glad to have found such a safe and comfy home away from home.”
“Christina was amazing! Rosie had so much fun during her stay and enjoyed playing with all of the dogs! She came home and passed out which means she enjoyed herself to the fullest.”
“Shannon was very kind. She really was patient with my elderly dog. She was also sitting another pup who kept my fur baby company. She sent me pictures daily. I really appreciate that. Will definitely use her services again.”
About: I have had a dog for 8 years and am considering adopting a sibling. This will be a great way to not only find some wonderful new doggy friends and families but to also acclimate my dog to having another dog in the house. I have a large fenced in yard and am home on weekends so my dog and I would welcome some company! I work full time during the week and am in the office 3 days so I work from home on Fridays and have weekends free! I have a fenced in yard and friendly dog who would love some company. I do also have a crate so can crate your pup as well or they can sleep in a bed, on the couch, wherever they are comfortable!
“We had a great experience leaving our Aussidoodle, Willie, with Cynthia and her sweet lab, Luna. I received numerous pictures and was happy to know Willie had a very large, fenced in yard for roaming and exercise. Cynthia treated Willie like her own and gave positive feedback about his stay. I won't hesitate to request Cynthia for future boarding.”
About: Hi, thank you so much for stopping by to read through my profile. I have loved and taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs for years. Big, small, medium, even tempered, wild, mellow- I absolutely love them all. I have a 12 year old lab, who has slowed down a lot. She is my everything. I find something about raising a dog from a young pup to an aging one, so very special and rewarding. If your dog is fast paced or likes to smell every blade of grass, I’m game. Rain, shine, or snow, I’m available. I’d absolutely appreciate it if you gave me the opportunity to spoil your dog, not just walk or watch. I understand these are your babies. My house is set up well with a fenced in back yard and lots of attention and love offered. Let me know what questions or concerns you might have! I work Monday-Friday, I am usually free in the evenings and off on Thursdays typically. I’m free on most holidays(so keep that in mind).** I am free on most weekends. ** My job is flexible, 12 mins away, making it easy to drop by my house throughout the day. My house is open and I have a great fenced in area. Your dog will be spoiled rotten over here. Lots of pets and attention. I also know how important a walk is to a dog, it’s the highlight of their day! We’d make the most of it.
“Janey takes good care of my dog Lucy. She is very attentive. She takes her for walks. Lucyenjoys playing with her children and especially with her dog Koko. She sends pictures and communicates well. I never worry when I have to leave her with Jenay. My mind is at ease.”
“Melissa was ver conscientious an provide an excellent boarding environment.I was impressed that her pets were available for my pup to play with. She provided good communications during the course of the stay and was confident my pet was well cared for in a loving environment. I would highly recommend Mellisa for dog boarded or day care any time!”
“Return customer here and very happy with the way the dogs are cared for by Ashley and her family. They have a nice clean home and a large fenced backyard for the boys to play in.”
About: I have had cats & dogs since I was a child. Now I have a cat who loves dogs and neighbors bring their dogs over to see how they react to a cat. I am a retired vet with nothing but time to worship animals. I visit the dog park even though I dont have a dog & carry treat in case I meet a dog I have a yard with a fence, two bedrooms & a comfy couch all are welcome on. I live near a dog park & several parks for roaming.
“This was my first time needing a sitter and I was pretty nervous about it. I've never had to leave my sweet boy anywhere other than the vet for a day. Carol was very accommodating. She allowed me to see where he would be, answered any questions I had and sent pictures to me to assure me he was ok. I was grateful for that. That helped ease my mind. I would definitely use her again if it should become necessary again. She's awesome!!”
“Matt was wonderful! He is very polite and accomodating. I am a bored fur baby mom; I spoil my dogs and know it! Matt gave me detailed status reports on them every day I was gone along with better pictures than I can ever manage of them as well! It always put a smile on my face reading about their adventures every morning. I 100% recommend, and while I usually travel with them, I will reach out to him again next year when I travel overseas.”
“Tina and her husband were wonderful caretakers for our sweet terrier Lilly. They were so welcoming when we got there. Their setup was perfect. They had a fenced back yard. They also took her on walks, brushed her, doted on her, let her sleep with them and made her feel so at home that when we came to pick her up she wanted us to come in instead of running out to the car as usual. She wanted all her peeps to be together. That is true testimony to the wonderful experience she had. Tina also kept us updated every couple of days with photos and gave us a full report when we came to pick up. Our girl had no problems so no more reporting was required. We were delighted with their services!”
“Amy is amazing! My dog absolutely loves her. I feel a sense of relief when my baby is left with her. Her house is clean and cozy and you can tell that she genuinely loves dogs. She even sent my dog home with a new toy. I will always book with her if she’s available. ❤️”
“Starr is an amazing sitter. We have boarded twice and will continue to count on her for future needs. Starr is kind and caring and takes such good care of Winston as if he is a member of her own family. She sends lots of photos and there is plenty of opportunity for playtime. I highly recommend Starr for your boarding needs.”

Using her again next week for a few days over the holiday. She is a super star! I didn't worry one bit with her watching them. She made my vacation worry free so we could relax and enjoy time away. Five star and can’t say enough about her. If you want someone who really cares and will take great care of your pets, schedule with Brandi.”

About: I have had cats my entire life. I have taken care of my families cats while they were away, I also have three of my own currently. I have a cat with a lot of food restrictions! This makes me very careful and attentive for kitties who need extra care. I also have experience with timid cats who need extra space. I hope to provide a safe environment for your feline friend, on their terms!
“Love her! Jill takes such good care of my cats. She takes time to hang out with them not just feed and clean up. Always leaves a daily note and photos, which is reassuring when you are far from home.”
About: I know that every cat is different, from the cuddly lap cats to the independent ones who prefer their own space. I’ll take the time to understand your cat’s personality, routines, and preferences so they receive care in the way that makes them happiest. I’ve cared for my own cats as well as the cats of friends and family, and I love providing the patience, love, and attention they need while you’re away.
“Ali is an amazing caretaker for our kitties! Highly recommend - she communicates well, and provides timely and loving care, in addition to taking the cutest pictures of them while we’re gone! We never worry about our kitties’ well-being, because we know Ali will always take great care of them :)”
“Christina was excellent, thoughtful, and available even outside of our booked visit times. She was a lifesaver when we had to leave town despite our cat’s unexpected injury. The cats liked and trusted her immediately. Highly recommended!”
“Joy was a wonderful sitter for our boys. Responsive and attentive, she did not hesitate to reach out with concerns as needed. More than once we spotted Joy on camera giving extra attention to our very attention-needy boy. Thanks for everything❤️”
“If you're seeking a respectful, trustworthy, responsive, caring, and compassionate pet sitter, look no further! Tiffany did an excellent job caring for my two labs over the holidays. She's earned my business from here on out! Thank you so much, Tiffany!!”
“Andrea was amazing! She made a point to meet our cats before we left on our trip. She was punctual and thorough, plus she obviously enjoyed her visits - offering play time, brushing, and scritches. Our cats are shy with strangers so we weren't sure if she'd even see all four every visit, but not only did she see them they all came out to interact! We felt completely at ease enjoying our vacation with her help at home.”
“Quenna is a very responsible pet sitter! She showed up early and was always fast to respond my texts. She was the first person I used on this app after a few people agreed and then cancelled on me. But Quenna didn't disappoint. Plus her main job is at the animal shelter. So she is the best care taker! I highly recommend Quenna as your pet sitter!”
“Megan was absolutely amazing! I have two elderly kitties, so I appreciated all the pictures, and updates after every visit. She is very responsible and dependable. After the first visit, I knew my kitties were going to be in great hands, and I was not wrong. Thank you Megan and Seth! ❤️ I am glad we met you!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in the house hold as far back as I could remember! I have a genuine love for animals in general but especially our canine friends. I have served in law enforcement for nearly a decade and with that said safety, security and transparency are top of my list of priorities. I have worked closely with dogs my entire life and have trained several dogs to learn simple and more advanced commands which improves the overall behavior and wellbeing of any dog. My schedule is extremely flexible and all it takes is an open line of communication and most scheduling need can be met to fit the owners requests. Its important for me that a clients pet is treated like my own. I believe it takes integrity to car for someone’s dog and because they can not speak for themselves it worries pet owners that their dog may be mistreated when being cared for by another person. Rest assured I would make it my mission to treat your dog as if he/she were my own. My home is located on nearly 2 acres grassy open fields, with over 4000 sq ft of that space being fenced in for plenty of outdoor activities.
About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic!

Joyce maintained good communication and she made sure to give Nina many cuddles and love to make her feel safe while we were away. If you’re in the area or live in the area and you want your pet to be safe and taken care of I recommend you Joyce. Thank you again!”

About: I've watched pets for friends and family since I was a teenager. I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs and cats and will love them like they are my own. I can't wait to meet you and your fur baby. I am currently a stay at home spouse and looking for ways to make extra income doing something I love. I am extremely flexible with my schedule and will make the time to make things work. I have a cat that seems to get along with other animals, but haven't put it to the test too much. I have walked and pet sat for several clients with bigger dogs and that have special needs and am comfortable with them all. I do always try and do a meet and greet before our first visit so your pet can get to know me before they are left alone with me.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and many other furry and feathered companions. I firmly believe that a house isn’t truly a home without a four-legged friend. Over the years, I’ve provided pet care for family and friends, caring for up to five dogs at a time of varying breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also have experience caring for cats, including both indoor and outdoor pets. My background is in nursing, which has given me valuable experience with responsibility, attention to detail, and caring for animals with special medical needs. However, my love for animals has always been just as strong as my passion for helping people. My family and I recently relocated from St. Louis, Missouri, to St. Jacob, Illinois. My husband and daughter share my love for animals, and our home is currently filled with the company of our three beloved cats. Earlier this year, we said goodbye to our sweet dog, Roxy, after 17 wonderful years together. Her absence has left a noticeable void in our home, and we miss the sound of her sassy little feet following us around. While we take our time deciding when we’re ready to welcome another dog into our family, I’ve decided to return to pet sitting and expand my services. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I would be honored to provide loving, dependable care for your pets while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, medication administration, or vacation care, you can rest assured your pets will be treated like family. I'm currently a stay at home mom and can offer plenty of flexibility for your pet's care needs whether that is drop in visits, walks, or boarding. We live on a 2+ acre lot with lots of room to run/walk around the property. We do not currently have a fenced in yard so dogs would need to be on a leash to ensure their safety while staying with us. We have lots of walking paths in our area that we can offer for exercise. If your dog likes a quiet place to rest, we have used our laundry room as a quiet area for pets.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have three dogs ranging from 6 pounds to 60 pounds. I’ve been looking after pets since I was a child and have experience with all kinds of companions. Right now, I share my home with three dogs—60 lbs, 25 lbs, and 6 lbs—so I’m very comfortable managing different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Over the years, I’ve also cared for cats, birds, fish, gerbils, and even snakes. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. Let me take something off your plate, whether it be dog walking , dog sitting, drop in’s or boarding. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule to help to care for your pet. I’m available on weekdays and weekends with a little bit of notice! 🐾 I’m dependable and safety-focused, and I’ll care for your pet the same way I care for my own. I have three wonderful dogs and a fully fenced backyard, so safety is always top of mind in my home. I’m happy to follow any specific routines or precautions you have in place to make sure your pet feels secure and well cared for. 🐾

About: I have grown up in a household with dogs, mainly the medium to large sized breeds. I have experience with all sizes of dogs though, as I have taken care of a variety of sized dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. I have taken care of cats and dogs when needing medical care - especially giving meds and minor wound care - and also have groomed and walked many types and sizes of dogs. I love making sure the pets are healthy and happy. I have volunteered at an animal shelter to help with the care of animals - providing play time, meds, and grooming of both dogs and cats. I'm currently a full time student at SIUE and I'm in the MFA art studio program. For summer 2026 semester my schedule is Mon-Fri for a few hours in July. For fall I have classes Monday through Friday for a few hours at a time. Weekends I'm generally free. For drop ins and walks, I'll work with you to figure out the best time(s) based upon my schedule and distance from campus. During house sitting, I can provide food, medicine, play time, walks, and many other services. I also am willing to assist with house related things - bringing in mail, taking trash out for trash pickup, etc - just let me know and we can work it out. For walks and drop ins, in addition to the service, I can provide some house related services (like bring in mail and packages) upon request. I am available to help with the pets at the clients home. I can either stay at your place or go home at night, which I can work with you based on your needs and comfort. I have experience with gated and non gated yards (so needing to leash the dog when taking out for the potty), gates for inside the house, and crate training. Often I will have my own leash with me so that if anything happens, I'm prepared. As for walks, I often work with the dog(s) to see what triggers them and avoid as much as possible. I know not all dogs are friendly with other dogs or people so I am aware of my surroundings and provide appropriate distance to avoid people and dogs as best as I can.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, and feed their pets. I can't wait to play with your pups! Hi everyone! I’m a recent graduate from Murray State University, and I am now available for dog sitting in the STL area. I have 6 years of dog care experience and am comfortable dogsitting of all ages. I'm available on the weekends. And certain times during the week. If you or someone you know is looking for a responsible, caring, and experienced dog sitter—whether it’s part-time, occasional, or regular—I’d love to help out! I have a fenced yard and a golden doodle that is very friendly. If you have any questions about accommodations for your doggy I am more than welcome to help!

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have been taking care of them since I was able to. I also would help my neighbors as a kid when they would go out of town. I have two dogs now and love them to death. I’m can walk, feed, bathe, and play with your pet. I am working when I am a free. So your pets care would be my first priority after getting up in the morning. If need over night that would work perfectly. If you have a fenced In yard. I would still go outside with them and have some play time if they would like. Also if we had to take them on a walk I would follow what the animal would like. I will take care of your pet just like they are my own.

“Jamie and Aaron are awesome! They offered a meet-and-greet a few days before our pup's visit, giving us a chance to meet them, their two dogs, and cats. From the moment you meet them, you can tell they really love animals and want to make each of their "guests" feel safe and at home. In fact, I think Row felt so at home at Jamie and Aaron's, he would have been happy to move in! Jamie kept us updated and sent pictures and videos throughout our trip - it was so fun to see him playing with their pups and snuggling in with them on the couch. We'll gladly book another stay with Jamie and Aaron!”
“Our pit was so happy and calm after a week with Nicole; it felt less like boarding and more like leaving family with family. We are very glad to have found such a safe and comfy home away from home.”
“Christina was amazing! Rosie had so much fun during her stay and enjoyed playing with all of the dogs! She came home and passed out which means she enjoyed herself to the fullest.”
“Shannon was very kind. She really was patient with my elderly dog. She was also sitting another pup who kept my fur baby company. She sent me pictures daily. I really appreciate that. Will definitely use her services again.”
“We had a great experience leaving our Aussidoodle, Willie, with Cynthia and her sweet lab, Luna. I received numerous pictures and was happy to know Willie had a very large, fenced in yard for roaming and exercise. Cynthia treated Willie like her own and gave positive feedback about his stay. I won't hesitate to request Cynthia for future boarding.”
About: Hi, thank you so much for stopping by to read through my profile. I have loved and taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs for years. Big, small, medium, even tempered, wild, mellow- I absolutely love them all. I have a 12 year old lab, who has slowed down a lot. She is my everything. I find something about raising a dog from a young pup to an aging one, so very special and rewarding. If your dog is fast paced or likes to smell every blade of grass, I’m game. Rain, shine, or snow, I’m available. I’d absolutely appreciate it if you gave me the opportunity to spoil your dog, not just walk or watch. I understand these are your babies. My house is set up well with a fenced in back yard and lots of attention and love offered. Let me know what questions or concerns you might have! I work Monday-Friday, I am usually free in the evenings and off on Thursdays typically. I’m free on most holidays(so keep that in mind).** I am free on most weekends. ** My job is flexible, 12 mins away, making it easy to drop by my house throughout the day. My house is open and I have a great fenced in area. Your dog will be spoiled rotten over here. Lots of pets and attention. I also know how important a walk is to a dog, it’s the highlight of their day! We’d make the most of it.

“Melissa was ver conscientious an provide an excellent boarding environment.I was impressed that her pets were available for my pup to play with.

“Matt was wonderful! He is very polite and accomodating. I am a bored fur baby mom; I spoil my dogs and know it! Matt gave me detailed status reports on them every day I was gone along with better pictures than I can ever manage of them as well! It always put a smile on my face reading about their adventures every morning. I 100% recommend, and while I usually travel with them, I will reach out to him again next year when I travel overseas.”
“Amy is amazing! My dog absolutely loves her. I feel a sense of relief when my baby is left with her. Her house is clean and cozy and you can tell that she genuinely loves dogs. She even sent my dog home with a new toy. I will always book with her if she’s available. ❤️”

“Marieta and her family were wonderful! She did a pre-visit to put us at ease and was so loving to our dog. She regularly sent updates with pictures and was super easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!!”
“Another excellent stay for Bella with Jessica! This is our 2nd stay with her, but it won’t be our last! I really appreciate all of the photos that Jessica sends - this greatly alleviates any stress of leaving our fur baby. You can tell that Jessica takes care to make a comfortable environment for the pets she watches and ensures they get plenty of exercise and love.”

“Sarah took very good care of my little Noah, this was his first stay at someone's house but he stayed at a kennel last summer and wasn't very happy when I picked him up. This is a much better environment to leave him in. I would leave him there again if needed. ”
“I felt like my fur babies had a great vacation where they were welcomed into the family. I love that the sitter worked from home so that my dogs could go outside anytime they needed. I felt my pets were safe and well taken care of with the sitter.”
About: I’ve had pups of my own my whole life. I love all animals and want to make sure your other half is cared for! I work five days a week but I am allotted an hour everyday at lunch to go provide care to your furry friend! After work I will be able to let them out and get them out for exercise ! I always ensure that the animals care is met based on their specific needs, walks are very important and making sure they have ample time to get their energy out.
