“10/10 would recommend! She provided pictures and videos. She was excellent at communicating and answering questions I had. She was also very flexible when I needed assistance with changing pick-up times. I would highly recommend and look for her for your next boarding!”
“Absolute best!!! Dave and his wife were so extremely kind and sent me pictures and videos of my dog all throughout the day every day! I felt 100% at ease and will most definitely use Dave’s services again! I recommend with complete peace ❤️❤️”
“Christina was super great. She took great care of Fonzy and Yuri and even helped to do some very basic grooming on Fonzy. He did have a bit of an accident overnight and she was able to handle it and was completely understanding of his nervousness of being somewhere new. If you are hesitant on leaving your dogs someplace I understand. However you can rest easy with Christina. She loves dogs and does a great job with them.”
“Shane was awesome! He kept us updated the entire time with pictures and videos. He has a really nice yard that Leo LOVED. I never seen him so happy. 100% worth the drive. He really care for Leo. He even brought him out to us and gave Leo goodbye kisses!”

“Great match for my little guy with their dogs. Captain slept for 2 days after this visit. Yay!! Beth and her family are great sitters and are familiar with dog behavior and needs. I will definitely use her again.”
“Awesome....does more need to be said lol...always kept me updated and responded to my messages and my pup had a blast he got plenty of attention and lovins...he can't wait to go back ?”
“Stephanie was wonderful and she took great care of our sweet pup while we were gone. She communicated with us daily, sent multiple pictures, and was always very prompt to respond to all questions. Upon our return after 9 days, it was clear that our dog was loved and well cared for - he was happy and he even came home with some goodies. We will absolutely have him stay with her again and I would recommend her for sure!”
“We highly recommend this loving family, especially if your pup is use to a house full of kids and love. They updated us each day and Opal seemed happy as can be all week long. We will be contacting this family again❤️”

About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart. I absolutely adore their unique personalities—from the chatty, attention-loving cats who want to be involved in everything, to the shy ones who just need someone patient enough to earn their trust. One of my favorite parts of caring for cats is learning what makes each one happy, whether that's playtime with a wand toy, a quiet lap to nap on, or simply sharing the same room together. There is nothing better than hearing a happy purr, getting slow blinks of trust, or being greeted with a little "meow" when I walk through the door. I believe great cat care is about much more than food and fresh water. I'm meticulous about keeping litter boxes clean, paying attention to changes in behavior or appetite, and making sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll happily spend time playing, cuddling (if they want it!), brushing, or just providing calm companionship. My goal is for your cat to feel like they're spending time with a friend—not just someone stopping by to check a box. I'll also send plenty of updates and photos, because I know how reassuring it is to see your furry family member happy, relaxed, and purring while you're away.
“Barb was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our three cats, including managing to give medication to our notoriously unruly orange tabby (a true miracle!). When our flight got cancelled, she was kind enough to come two extra days without hesitation, which really put us at ease. Our cats loved her and they’ve never even tolerated other sitters in the past. Barb is incredible, reliable, and has such a natural way with animals. We can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Melanie did a good job taking care of our shy kitty. She sent pictures even if we didn't asked for them and that was nice. Good communication and fast response. We do recommend her!”

I work Monday - Thursday from 8am-6pm so weekends and nights are my open availability 🙃 Caring for pets is all about love and balance. I start the day with fun walks and play, followed by nourishing meals and plenty of cuddles.

“Having Linda drop in on my kitties everyday for 2 1/2 weeks has taken all the stress out of leaving them. Linda has been a wonderful pet sitter and their new best friend! Communication was excellent and I will definitely book her again.”
“First time using Rover and Liam isn’t used to strangers so we were both a bit nervous. Punctual; being right on time for the scheduled appointments, responsive with great communication and regular updates. The photos are a nice touch and helpful. Exceeded expectations. Thank you.”
About: I have owned a few dogs, and have watched over many more! I love dogs and am looking forward to meeting new dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am currently working a part time job that is flexible. I am willing to do all tasks assigned from walking to feeding to bathing. I am friendly but will be serious when needed to properly care for the dog. Your dog will always be the top priority. I will follow all instructions left by the owner, while also having fun your dog. I can take them on walks, to the park, and even swimming! I have a car to get whenever I need to be and I am always on time. While this will be an extra job for me I will be sure to treat it like my only job!
About: Honestly I love taking care of animals. I have a few of my own. Salem (cat) and Oscar (pup) Salem is very laid back and so friendly it’s insane. And Oscar being a puppy loves being around anyone and any pet. I currently work full time M-F but please know I will always make time for your fur babies. I’m usually available after 5pm on weekdays and I’m always available on weekends. I do not have a fenced in yard unfortunately but I do have a big grass area behind my house. We have a dog park we can go to nearby if permitted by owner
“Peace of mind. Our pooch was in very good hands. Maybe too good. Arriving home Storm acted indifferent to our home coming. She was excited to see us but not like if she was in a kennel for 10 days. Very good job.”
About: I’ll start with my experience, I have worked at a veterinary hospital, groomers, and doggy daycare! Currently working at a pet urgent care too so my hours may not work with you pets schedules. I know how to do basic first aid, any grooming, care for all types of animals, and I can notice different types of behavior changes. I will treat your lovely babies like they are my own. I currently own 4 dogs, all different ages and size. They are my babies for sure. I love to take them outside and get them running around and having fun when weather is nice. I can do walks for dogs. Can even go for hikes if you approve of it. I’m willing to work with anyone and there schedules as much as I can. I do like to offer grooming of any sort while they are in my care! If there are any other questions don’t be afraid to ask. I currently work full time at a pet urgent care. My hours are weird and as of right now my only off days are Tuesdays and Wednesdays. My shifts are usually 8 hours but it can be longer as we don’t control emergencies. I will always care for your fur and not so furry babies as if they were my own! So I apologize if you return home and they are a little more spoiled than before! I always send pictures because who doesn’t want pictures of there happy babies while away!

I work Monday- Friday 8:00-2:30, so mostly I am free in the evenings or on the weekends! If I was babysitting your dog during the week I’d make time for them. I will follow whatever schedule you have for your fur baby and they will get to hangout with me the whole time and get attention.

“Mozzy had a great time playing with other dogs during her stay, Rachell had a wonderful yard to play in and was very on top of maintaining safety and watch over our girl. We got lots of pictures and our Mozzy had a ton of fun and came home exhausted and happy!”
“Haley is wonderful, always giving me details as my little man's anxiety around new people and places lessens every day. As soon as I met her and her children I knew that they'd have a calming influence on him. So glad I found her!!”
“Karissa was absolutely amazing made the drop off and pick up very easy. This was Rivers first time with someone else that he didn’t know. She took amazing care of him. We will definitely use her again. Thanks Rene and Gary”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied upon me to watch their dogs on many occasions. I work during the day, and able to watch dogs 3pm and after every day during the week and available during the weekends as well. I have a fenced in yard so we can play and hangout inside the house or outside with comfort. Always a good time with me
“Melissa was phenomenal. She took FENWAY with short notice, so I could take my kids on some adventures on our way thru the city as we drove home from a camping trip. She sent me pictures, and Fenway slept most the way home, so I could tell she had a good time”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and backgrounds. I grew up with large-breed dogs and have loved dogs my entire life. When I moved out on my own, adopting a dog was one of the first things I did! I currently have three resident dogs, all of whom I trained myself. Two of the three have severe separation anxiety, so I'm quite well-versed in some of the behavioral traits that come along with that. For the past two years, I've also been actively involved in the dog rescue world by fostering. I've fostered 12 dogs ranging from young puppies who needed to learn the basics to adult dogs who came with more challenging behavioral needs such as resource guarding. These experiences have taught me to be patient, observant, and adaptable with every dog I care for. I understand that not every dog is going to walk into a new environment perfectly behaved, and I genuinely enjoy meeting them where they are and helping them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a perfectly behaved adult, or somewhere in between, I'll treat them like one of my own. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. My resident dogs still rule my daily routine. Your pup will get plenty of attention throughout the day/night and can have potty breaks as consistently as needed. I've house trained seven puppies over the past two years, so I'm very used to frequent potty breaks if that's something your pup needs. Otherwise, every 2-4 hours is pretty consistent with the routine my resident dogs are on. I've fostered dogs with a variety of different needs and have always worked it into my schedule. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home, so I'm happy to adapt my approach to each dog's individual needs and your preferences as a pet parent. I do have three resident dogs in my home, all of whom are extremely dog friendly. Ideally, dogs staying in my home will be comfortable around other dogs, but I understand that not every dog wants or needs constant interaction. I have a separate guest room that I've previously used for foster dogs who needed some quiet time or a slower introduction. If your pup needs their own space, they can have a dedicated area away from my resident dogs while still having plenty of company - I work from home, and the guest room also serves as my home office. I have an unfenced yard, so dogs are always taken outside on a leash. I also have a long line that allows fogs more freedom to sniff, explore, and play while remaining safely contained. Outdoor time is always supervised, whether your dog is staying with me or I'm caring for them in your home. When caring for a dog in your home, I'll follow your instructions and do my best to maintain your pup's normal routine, including feeding, medication, walks, potty breaks, and any other care they're accustomed to. My priority is always safety, communication, and making sure your pup feels comfortable and well cared for while you're away. I've had people care for my own dogs while I've been away, and I've experienced both sides of the spectrum - sitters who went above and beyond and sitters who left me wishing I'd been there myself. I know how important it is to maintain a dog's routine and give them the same care and attention they're used to. My own dogs are basically my children, so I know exactly what level of care I'd want for them. That's the same standard I'll bring to caring for yours!
About: I had my own personal dogs for over 20 years in total but do not currently have any pets. As my schedule allows, I help out with short-term fostering for a rescue that I adopted two of my dogs from. All 3 of my dogs ended up with health issues in their old age so I have plenty of experience giving medications, feeding special diets, assisting with mobility issues, etc. Because my boy was dog reactive, I became a master at 'crate/gate/separate' when fostering while he was alive. However, I intend to only sit animals that are from the same home at one time so the animals do not face any restrictions needing to avoid animals they do not live with. I work from home (day job) so I will be around most of the time during the care dates with the exception of any planned events outside of the home (which likely would not be more than a few hours at a time). I have a fenced yard (4 feet) for quick potty breaks (I do not leave dogs unattended in my yard). For walks, I can use a double leash/collar if needed for extra security. I do have a shared fence line with a neighbor dog that is reactive so, when needed, I run a line of chicken wire to keep dogs in my yard from being able to reach that fence. The neighbor’s dog is my primary reason for marking ‘no’ to un-spayed/neutered. I don’t leave any dogs I watch unattended in my back yard but he’s a Cane Corso that’s not neutered and my fence is only 4ft tall so I figured better safe than sorry.
About: So I just love dogs. I have had dogs my whole life and will never not have one. I work from home and am very physically active so my lifestyle works well with dogs as I am around to simply hang out with the dogs or go on long walks if needed! Luckily I work from home as an attorney and am able to provide many walks and attention throughout the day. I also live in an area with a lake and multiple dog parks. I am extremely attentive with any dogs that I take care of. I will provide sitting with care and attention and make sure your dog is safe and taken care of.
“Zinaida and her family were wonderful and loving. They took great care of my boys and took them on several walks throughout the day. She also sent me plenty of photos and videos. I also appreciated that she was flexible with time, and accomodated to my last-minute request. I highly recommend her for dog daycare and boarding!!”
About: Hi friends, I’m Lucy! I am a long time animal lover and have grown up around dogs, cats, and farm animals. In the past I was lucky enough to gain experience working with veterinarians in both large animal and small animal practices, and I loved every minute of it. I can assure you that providing quality care for your pet is my number one priority. I work from home, so I will be able to do lots of playtime and walks as well. If I sound like a good fit for your needs, feel free to contact me with details and I will get back to you as quickly as possible. I am currently working from home which means my schedule is very flexible for potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of pictures while you’re gone! I have a fenced-in yard for playtime at my house and a mini dachshund who can be kept separately if needed during your pet’s stay.
“I just got my first dog and was super nervous having someone watch him for the first time. Jeanne made it much easier and I feel very comfortable letting her watch my pup. I will be booking her again!”
“I cannot recommend Bhairavi highly enough! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves and understands dogs. She went above and beyond to make sure Oakley felt comfortable, happy, and cared for. I received regular updates with adorable photos and thoughtful notes, which gave me total peace of mind. My dog came home relaxed, healthy, and clearly well-loved! It’s rare to find someone so responsible, kind, and attentive. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, Bhairavi is the one. Bhairavi and Gary have a beautiful home and you will not find anyone better to love and care for your dog!! I will definitely be booking again!”
About: I have had animals my entire life, dogs, cats, gerbils, ferrets, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish. I just love having animals and taking care of them. My job is flexible and I work from home most of the time so I can keep animals during the day and overnight. I will be able to take them on walks during the day. I can care for pets in my own home or come to your home to take care of them as needed. My back yard is huge and lots of room for dogs to run.
“Tiffiny did a great job with Van Gogh. She had him 3 days and made drop off/ pick up quick and easy. She has an animal psych degree so your pet will love it, and may even come back more well behaved. Id request her again next time Im in the area.”
“Frances is an amazing, caring and reliable pet sitter. I would trust her to take care of Cooper anytime! She also updated me with many pictures throughout the day, which I loved! I would 10/10 recommend Frances to be your dog sitter!”
About: Charismatic and outgoing animal lover with 16 years experience owning pets, and hundreds of hours volunteering at the humane society in 3 different states. I grew up with cats, but could not own a dog until I moved out on my own, so I quickly got my first baby Alice the first chance I could. My fur babies include a 13 year old sweet beagle mix, Alice 🌈 and two gentle loving cats, Poppy and Millie. All of my animals have been around other animals their whole lives and get along with all creatures. I prefer not to board cats, but can keep your cat in a closed bedroom for their stay. I would love to open my doors to help out families in need of a more personal way to board their pets when they are away. Your animals must get along with cats and small children. I have a very flexible schedule so I have the ability to care for your pet throughout the day, depending on your pets individuals needs. My pets have free range of the house. Visitors dogs can be crated if needed or have free range of the house if ok left unsupervised.

About: Welcome! We are a passionate, animal-loving mother-daughter team ready to give your pets the royal treatment. My lifelong love for animals started with my childhood beagles, followed by a schnauzer, and has grown to include four dogs of my own, a guinea pig, a bearded dragon, and numerous fish! We are starting this venture this summer to help my daughter build her skills and chase her lifelong dream. Ever since she was 4 years old, she has wanted to be a veterinarian—she even has a master plan to build a vet practice and a petting zoo on the exact same property! I love her animal-loving spirit and want to support her dream in every way I can. We work as a dedicated team she will be taking the profits and placing them into her savings account), so rest assured that your fur babies will truly become our fur babies while they are in our care. We can't wait to meet your pets! . Whether your dog needs a structured routine, midday walks, or just lots of couch cuddles and companionship, we have the flexibility to match their exact needs. Because our own dog prefers to be an 'only child' and a single-sibling fur baby, we exclusively offer care in your home! When you trust us with your pets, my daughter and I will treat your home with the utmost respect, exactly as if it were our own. For House Sitting, we adapt entirely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away.

We also always make sure your home is secure before we leave and will send you plenty of photo updates so you can see how much fun we are having!
About: No pets over 20 Ibs as my space is not big enough please. I worked with my step mom since 13 with her dog/cat grooming company. Therefore i am very versed with many different types of companions. I have also had many dogs and cats throughout my years. I hope to give any companion the best time. I am a working mom of a 4 year old and 3 year old. They are both very respectful and gentle with pets. We have a five year old cat, but he has lived with both cats and dogs. My cat does get along with both. Since I do work full time, I wont personally be home all the time with the pets. On the plus side though, my husband stays home so there will always be someone here with them! I have a decent sized yard but it is not fenced. I will take the dogs for walks around my neighborhood, and any potty breaks/walks I will be sure they are leashed when outside. As for cats i do have a smart litter box so it stays very sanitized and it tracks potty time to make sure everything is looking good with cats! I have a huge cat tree. I do not have much supply for dogs, but Im willing to get anything to accommodate a dogs needs. Please no pets over 20 Ibs. My space is not big enough for bigger pets.
About: Hi friends! I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently share my home with four dogs, a cat, and some very spoiled chickens. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and it never feels like “work.” I know how busy life gets, and how important it is to travel or take a break without stressing about your pets. With experience in both home care and kennel settings, I’ve seen how much happier and calmer animals are when they can stay in their own environment. My goal is simple, make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable until you’re home again. I run my own cleaning business and homeschool my kids, which we’ve been doing for about a year and a half now. I love being my own boss and having a schedule that works for our family. With so many parents heading back to work these days, I wanted to do something that helps both people and their pets. I’ve always loved animals, so this felt like the perfect fit. Plus, it’s a great way to show my kids how even simple services can make a big difference for someone. I care for every pet just like I do my own — with calm energy, love, and lots of attention. Animals deserve the very best, and I truly enjoy giving them that. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are being cared for with kindness and respect while you’re away.
About: Hello! I'm Karissa, and I've been an animal lover ever since I was a little girl. Growing up, my parents ran a pet shop, so I had the pleasure of being surrounded by all sorts of critters. Because of this upbringing, I've had the joy of caring for a wide range of animals, getting to know their unique needs and keeping them healthy and happy. In my own little family, we currently have three sweet cats and a playful puppy who's just six months old. We live in the lovely countryside near Festus, with a whole acre of land securely fenced for our furry pals to explore. We even have a pool, and you can trust us when we say we take pool safety seriously! We love a good game of fetch or tug of war and have been really getting into positive reinforcement training. Our puppy is even learning how to use buttons to "speak". :) I've got a soft spot for every cat and dog out there, and I'd be thrilled to look after your precious babies whenever you need a hand. I can either host them at my place or swing by your home to check in on them. Your pets' happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I can absolutely understand the importance of trust when it comes to finding the right pet sitter. So, let me assure you, I'm a dedicated and reliable professional. I'll treat your furry friends like they're part of my own family, following their routines and taking care of any special medications or dietary needs they may have. I can't wait to hear from you and meet your adorable pets! Feel free to reach out anytime. As a stay-at-home mom with older children, I have the flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your needs seamlessly! Please reach out with any questions about my availability. As mentioned earlier, our household comprises three friendly cats and a 6-month-old puppy. They are all well-accustomed to meeting new furry pals and get along famously with both dogs and cats. If necessary, we can easily arrange separate living spaces to ensure your fur-baby feels comfortable and at ease.
About: All my life, I have bonded with both dogs and cats, and animals in general. I have been told that I have an ability to connect with any animal effortlessly. While I have been dog-sitting for friends, family, and others for about four years, I also have worked as a Caregiver at CARE STL, an animal shelter in St. Louis. During my time at CARE, I fed, walked, played, and formed connections with over 100 dogs, as well as cats and other animals. After that, I started working as a server/bartender at Bar-K, to make money while still working in an animal-friendly environment. Since then, I have been a reliable, trusted, and consistent dog-sitter for many clients. The safety and care of any animal is always my biggest priority, and I promise that I will not disappoint! I currently am not working, as I have just recently graduated from Saint Louis University. In other words, I am more often than not, completely available to work anytime on Weekdays and Weekends. However, on June 1st, I will be starting an internship that requires 20 hours a week but my schedule is extremely flexible, as the internship is willing to adjust to whatever schedules I have. Because of my flexible availability, I am able to spend as much time with your fur baby as you would like me to. Whether it be cuddling, playing, or going outside, I will provide all of my attention and services to the care of your animals.

About: i’ve been taking care of friends, family, and neighbors fur babies for the past nine years of my life, and I absolutely love every single one of them.

If you have one you’d like to stick to, I will happily oblige.
“I love how much attention Kathy gives to Dyson. It’s very comforting to know he is being looked after and loves while I am gone. I know he enjoys his walks with her and I would recommend her to anyone that asked.”
About: I love all animals. If you need a caregiver for your friend I'm the one. I'm opened to days/nights weekend and holidays. Will travel too. I currently only work one day a week outside my home, the rest I work from home I would love a friend to hang out with, or take a break with. I will provide a loving fun time for your pet. My dog died two years ago and I really miss having a pet to love. I'm also available for plant care I can work with your schedule if needed. I also do drop bys, too. I love getting out, walking, and playing with doggies, cat, and any pet. I have a new fence and it has a access with no steps for my older doggies. There is also ramps for those shorter dogs. We have lots of love and would to share it with your dogs.

Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a perfectly behaved adult, or somewhere in between, I'll treat them like one of my own. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. My resident dogs still rule my daily routine. Your pup will get plenty of attention throughout the day/night and can have potty breaks as consistently as needed. I've house trained seven puppies over the past two years, so I'm very used to frequent potty breaks if that's something your pup needs. Otherwise, every 2-4 hours is pretty consistent with the routine my resident dogs are on. I've fostered dogs with a variety of different needs and have always worked it into my schedule. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home, so I'm happy to adapt my approach to each dog's individual needs and your preferences as a pet parent. I do have three resident dogs in my home, all of whom are extremely dog friendly. Ideally, dogs staying in my home will be comfortable around other dogs, but I understand that not every dog wants or needs constant interaction. I have a separate guest room that I've previously used for foster dogs who needed some quiet time or a slower introduction. If your pup needs their own space, they can have a dedicated area away from my resident dogs while still having plenty of company - I work from home, and the guest room also serves as my home office. I have an unfenced yard, so dogs are always taken outside on a leash. I also have a long line that allows fogs more freedom to sniff, explore, and play while remaining safely contained. Outdoor time is always supervised, whether your dog is staying with me or I'm caring for them in your home. When caring for a dog in your home, I'll follow your instructions and do my best to maintain your pup's normal routine, including feeding, medication, walks, potty breaks, and any other care they're accustomed to. My priority is always safety, communication, and making sure your pup feels comfortable and well cared for while you're away. I've had people care for my own dogs while I've been away, and I've experienced both sides of the spectrum - sitters who went above and beyond and sitters who left me wishing I'd been there myself. I know how important it is to maintain a dog's routine and give them the same care and attention they're used to. My own dogs are basically my children, so I know exactly what level of care I'd want for them. That's the same standard I'll bring to caring for yours!
About: I’ve had dogs since I was born and love seeing their joy when they see me walk in the door! I am very good with anxious dogs as I currently have a shy and anxious pup. He takes medications so I am also familiar with administer medications to pups should that be needed! I will be working as a pharmacy resident and I’m looking to make some extra cash doing something I love. I’d love to work more time into being outside and what better way to get outside than with pets! In my home I have a fenced in yard so my pup and I can play outside and he can run free. While fenced yards are great, enrichment outside the home is also very valuable so walks are also a staple!
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs in my home since I was around 13. A lot of neighbors rely on me to watch their dogs or even stay the night. I have raised many puppies throughout my life. I am currently working part-time. I work Monday, Friday, and Saturday nights. I also am in school from 8-2:40 throughout the week. Other than that I am available a lot!! I take my dogs out on leashes. If there is a fence able for the dogs to go out, I will let them out but stay out there with them.
About: I have owned a few dogs, and have watched over many more! I love dogs and am looking forward to meeting new dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am currently working a part time job that is flexible. I am willing to do all tasks assigned from walking to feeding to bathing. I am friendly but will be serious when needed to properly care for the dog. Your dog will always be the top priority. I will follow all instructions left by the owner, while also having fun your dog. I can take them on walks, to the park, and even swimming! I have a car to get whenever I need to be and I am always on time. While this will be an extra job for me I will be sure to treat it like my only job!

I have watched, dog walked, and played with many pups/dogs throughout the years, I started dog walking at the age of 13 in my neighborhood. I have 2 dogs and 1 puppy that I care for in my home in Hillsboro. I am happy to walk your babies or even go on fun trips to the parks! I have a full time job working Monday through Friday and every other weekend. I am a busy bee and like to stay that way! Caring for your babies would just add to my to do list but make it more fun I am comfortable with dogs all shapes and sizes; as well as other forms pets! If you're unsure, just ask! I understand leaving a baby can be difficult and I am willing to meet any requirements needed to ensure you are able to relax when I am caring for your pet!

Again, just reach out and we can discuss options! Any and all medication requirements I request I be shown beforehand to see how the pet handles it and what works best for them.

About: Hi! My name is Elyse. I am a graduate of the University of Missouri - Columbia and currently work for a healthcare company in the St. Louis area, but also love taking care of cats and dogs! I am so excited about the opportunity to take care of your pets! I have had pets all of my life - dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, frogs, you name it! I have 13 years of experience caring for all pets, even those with special needs. My goal is to not only take care of your animals and make sure they are happy and healthy, but to make sure you have ease of mind while you are away. I will take them on walks, administer any kind of medication if needed, play with them, send you check-in texts and photos, and comply with any other requests you may have! I strive to find ways to connect with your pet, whether they are low or high energy. All it takes is patience and maybe a treat :) Even though I work a full-time job, I will do everything in my power to be flexible for you and your pet. If you require specific times for care, we can make it work! I care for pets in clients' homes by making sure they are greeted/acknowledged. Sometimes it takes a while for them to calm down. :) Checking on food and water is my next task. I will let your pet outside/on the leash, walk them and play with them. Depending on the service, I will stay however long you would like me to for house sitting and drop-ins. I will ensure all doors are locked, the space is tidied up, and follow any other directions you may have while house sitting.
About: I have trained puppies and have had multiple pets. My friends are always asking me to help with their animals, even financially. I love the meet and greets and spending my time with animals! I am only Doordashing right now for work and pet sitting so my hours are very flexible! I am pregnant though! But that has no effect because my boyfriend tends to help me with the animals so that your animal is busy all day when he is home and I try to spend some time Dashing! We have ample time for any hour for feedings, walks, playtime, or potty breaks! I am safe and reliable. Always on my toes and ready for a fun day with a pet. I hope you will entrust me. I do not steal and or trash anywhere I go.
