“Nikki is AMAZING and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a Rover sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure your fur children are safe, happy, and entertained while in her care. Quigley loves going to boarding or daycare with Nikki and her fur babies! Plus Quigley always comes back to me tired from all of the play and fun he has had! Can’t wait for our next stay with Nikki”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Elizabeth. She took care of my dog for 2 1/2 weeks, sent a photo & comment every day about how Bessie was doing, and it was obvious she is passionate about animals! Because of her experience working for a vet I felt very comfortable that she was giving Bess her medicine, and since Bess is an older dog, she and her family gave her lots of cuddles and care. I won’t hesitate to ask her to dog sit again! Bessie also formed a friendship with one of their family’s dogs. She was very happy there!!”
“Tamara was very responsive and helpful in coordinating Willow's weekend stay. She shared pics and updates. I could tell my pup got lots of love and attention. She also had a blast playing with Tamara's pups. I'm hoping to continue to bring Willow there for doggie day care and even longer boarding visits.”
“This was our first time using Rover for our 8 year old lab. We read so many reviews that were positive for Misty and decided she was the perfect fit for our sweet Willow. Misty watched our baby for 9 days while we were out of the country. She sent photos and our girl came home as happy and content as could be. She has not done well being boarded in the past so this was a wonderful stay for her and a huge relief for us. We recommend Misty and her family 100%. She has a huge back yard and she and her family are animal lovers so you can be at peace that your fur baby will be well loved and happy. We will definitely book again with Misty in the future!”
“Tiffiny was great! She communicated well, sent periodic updates and pics and my dog Bella got plenty of exercise and outdoors time in her fenced in back yard. Tiffiny is also conveniently located very near my home so drop off and pick up was easy. I will definitely bring Bella back to stay with Tiffiny the next time I travel.”
“Rachell was amazing and great to our doggies! They barely wanted to come home. We got updates and pictures and they loved the outdoor time. Will definitely be using her again soon! Thanks Rachell!”
“Taylor & Sam were amazing! Communicative, treated the dogs so well. Daily updates & lots of exercise. Also flexible because of my hectic schedule. I haven’t felt this comfortable with someone watching my dogs for awhile. Great job!”
“Champ had a great time on his staycation with Morgan and Eric. They took great care of him and gave me regular updates. I appreciated the clear communication and sweet photos!”
“Wonderful experience. They treated my babies like one of their own. They sent a bunch of pictures and provided updates regularly. I had no worries about my pups care, I knew they were in good hands. I would definitely book with them again.”
“Great experience! Sherry took excellent care of my dog, kept me updated and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My dog came home happy and well cared for. I’d definitely book with Sherry again!””
“My pups loved their stay here! Alycia and her partner took such good care of them, sent us lots of pictures, and were super communicative. Will definitely be using them again!!”
“My dog Apollo loved his time at Beth's house. He was able to spend a lot of time playing in her fenced backyard, which is his favorite things to do, and Beth kept me updated regularly with pictures of him playing. We would definitely book with Beth again in the future.”
About: I have had bunnies, cats and dogs throughout my life. I am a manager at a doggy daycare and have a special bond with dogs, especially. I am an animal lover and so excited to build relationships with you and your babies! I am working full time, so I am available weekdays (except Wednesdays) after 5:30pm, and am mostly open on the weekends! We can work together to create the best care possible for your pets :) My husband and I have 2 cats and 1 dog right now. Both our cats are sphynx, so they have no hair. I have also raised furry cats too! I love working with my dog constantly on new tricks and behavioral training. My husband and I usually refer to the 3 as our kids instead of our pets because we're so obsessed with them 🤗
“Lorri was just wonderful and a true gem! Charlee loved his stay with her. She consistently messaged and sent pictures to update me on his stay. She was so attentive to him and he was very relaxed with her. It really made me feel so comfortable leaving him with her to have a relaxing vacation. THANK YOU, Lorri!”
“Dawn has done a great job. My dogs were happy and very well taken care of. She knew exactly what to do all the time. She sent pictures often and I felt very confident they were in the best possible hands. Thank you very much!”
“Brianna and her family were so awesome with our dog, Emmy. This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Emmy had lots of play time, pets, and snuggles. She even came home with her own bag of home made doggie treats! I will book Brianna for future stays.”
“Thanks for loving on our Benny-Boo while we were away. The few pictures you provided gave me peace of mind but I do hate to learn at pick up he wasn’t eating as usual. I think he just missed us since he ate just fine once we got him home. Thanks again, hope you enjoyed the sweet treats from our trip!”

“Once again I was able to go out of town with total ease, thanks to Kiersten. My cat, as small as he is, can be a handful and needs a lot of attention. He gets anxiety if I go to the grocery store. I came home to him calm as could be, asleep on the couch, after being gone for 4 days. Kiersten did not just feed and water him, she made sure he was happy and cared for, and it showed in his demeanor when I came back. I cannot recommend her enough - she takes SO much of the stress off traveling! Thank you Kiersten :)”

About: I once took care of five cats at the same time in an unfinished home. If that isn't enough for you, I also cared for my Grandfather's cat for two weeks, with said cat being afraid of me and its new environment. By making my presence known consistently but not forcefully, I managed to win her over. What sets me apart is my understanding of one key fact. You can't make a cat love you in the same way you would for a dog. Cats decide to enjoy your company if you've earned that privilege. Understanding how cats behave is what let me conquer the stories mentioned above. If a cat wants attention, I give it to them. If I see that they're getting bored, I play with them. If they want to be left alone, I leave them alone (unless they're obviously scheming to do something they shouldn't).
“Andrea is so wonderful! Our cat loves attention and Andrea makes sure he gets cuddles and play time at every visit. We left for a 3-day weekend recently and when we came home, he didn’t pout like he usually does. Highly highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Leigh's care for our senior cat, Diesel, was truly remarkable! She is an absolute gem! During our vacation, she provided 7 days of outstanding care for our 18-year-old senior cat, Diesel. The level of communication was excellent! Leigh kept us updated multiple times a day about Diesel's well-being. Coming home to a spotless house after a long day of travel was the perfect ending to vacation. She went above and beyond in caring for Diesel and our home and exceeded all expectations. We are deeply grateful to have found Leigh; she's far more than a pet sitter to us—she's a remarkable human who provided the best care possible for Diesel.”
“Madison was great – very communicative, followed all instructions, and Sunny was in great spirits when I returned. My place looked exactly the same as how I left it. I would definitely hire Madison again!”
About: I’ve worked with cats for years, including hands-on experience in a shelter setting. I’ve cared for cats with a wide range of personalities and behaviors, so I know how to read their cues, respect their boundaries, and keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m attentive to litter box care and overall cleanliness, and I treat every cat with patience and understanding.
“Nina is a literal angel on earth! Not only is she absolutely wonderful with our pets, but while we were away, a pipe burst in our house, and she took care of the entire mess. Nina is so kind, caring, and thoughtful. I recommend her to anyone a thousand times over!”
About: I’ve had my dog Teddy for three years, and my cat Squash for two. I love animals of all kinds and have been asked by family and friends since a young age to help them take care of animals. I’m gentle with touch but firm with my voice, love to train and spoil them, and adore going on walks. Your pets will be in good hands with me My schedule is really open right now, so I’m available for whatever your pet may need. I understand how important schedules can be, which is why I like being flexible. I’m very good at making sure that all the necessary tasks are met first when I get into the house, then if I’m allowed to, I usually try and spend a little time with that animal to gain their trust.

About: I am a Veterinary Technician and a Professional Dog Trainer with over 10 years of experience. With a degree in Animal Science and extensive hands-on experience, I understand that safety is the top priority for every pet owner. When your pet stays with us, they will not only be safe but will also have a fun and enriching experience. In addition to boarding, we offer professional Training and Grooming services tailored to each dog's needs. My husband works nights and is home during the day to provide expert care and supervision for your pets. As dedicated owners of show dogs, we take pet care seriously and strive to maintain the highest standards in every aspect of our services. Our property features two fully fenced yards for play and exercise. The first is a secure 6-foot chain link and privacy-fenced potty yard, measuring approximately 20 ft x 60 ft. The second is a spacious, fully fenced double lot with rolling hills and lush grass, providing the perfect environment for your pet to run, play, and explore. *Dogs in our care must be crate trained during down time & at night. When we are not at Dog Shows or Training we are at home with our dogs. My husband works nights which means your pets will be left alone minimally. We have 2 fully fenced in yards. A smaller yard with 6ft privacy fence and a large play yard with 4ft roller panels. We do offer medical boarding on a case by case basis at an additional rate.
About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals from a young age. Cat, dogs, small animals such as birds and hamsters. My love for animals came in childhood and I will offer the best care! I currently work a hybrid role with my company so I have time at home to take care of animals for those that are looking for the best options out there. I have a large yard and a neighborhood for walking. I have a fenced yard so outdoor playtime can be provided without worry. I have 1 cat in home and 2 children in the evenings to offer lots of play for family friendly dogs.
“Elisabeth was amazing!!!!!!! Our little Scout absolutely loved going to visit her and her family. Elisabeth sent videos and picks of their day and seemed to really enjoy the animals. Will definitely be a repeat client!! Thank you so much for loving our baby!!”
About: My wife and I are a dedicated pet-loving team who will treat your pets like family. I’ve cared for animals my entire life, and my wife is a trained veterinarian with over 10 years of experience in Mexico. She’s currently working as a vet tech as she works towards the ECFVG certification which will allow her to practice as a veterinarian here in the U.S., bringing a deep understanding of animal health and behavior to every visit. We currently share our home with 3 dogs, 1 cat, 9 chickens, and 2 turkeys—so we’re no strangers to pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or just someone patient and kind, you can trust that they’ll be in safe, experienced hands with us. I work from home full-time, so your pet will have plenty of companionship and care throughout the day. I’m often outside with our own dogs, so your pet will enjoy lots of fresh air, playtime, and supervision. My wife works four days a week but is home in the mornings and afternoons, so between the two of us, someone is almost always around to give your pet the attention they need. Whether your dog loves being active or just relaxing with company, they’ll feel right at home here. Your pet’s safety is our top priority. We have a fenced backyard where smaller dogs can roam safely. For larger dogs, we use a secure tie-out cable system to give them outdoor time while keeping them safely contained. Inside the home, we can easily separate pets if needed—our basement and main living area are fully divided, making it simple to create calm, stress-free environments for each animal. Our chickens and turkeys are kept in a fully enclosed outdoor coop, well away from visiting pets, so there’s no risk of unwanted interactions. You can trust that your pet will be cared for in a safe, secure, and attentive environment
“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”
“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 grew up with big dogs, little dogs, dogs that slobbered, and dogs that cuddled. In 2000 our family recused a puppy from a local rescue organization, she was the BEST dog and lived like a princess in our home. I understand senior care very well, as our beloved Schnoodle lived 19 years! I am currently working from home. I get up early and like to walk, can stop midday for a quick walk, and walk in the evening. I live in neighborhood with sidewalks and a park across the street. Currently, I do not have a pet in our home. Dogs are family and will always be treated like a family member in my home. I live in a safe neighborhood with paved sidewalks, streetlights, and a park across the street. I do not have a pet in our home, so your dog would be the main focus. I understand safety measures for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs. Gates, crates, leashes outside, food schedules, and I am very comfortable and familiar with administering medicine, especially for senior dogs.
About: I love dogs with all my heart. I am a new dog owner, but I am no stranger to dog care as I took care of my friends dog for a night and on other occasions. I have around 9 months of experience of taking care of my puppy. I have trained him in some of the basic commands and sometimes I love to make doggy treats for him. I am a recent graduate of highschool and will be home for most of the time. I will be able to take care of your dog anytime required. I have a temporary fence setup in my backyard along with a spacious basement. I have an extra bed if required for your pet along with extra blankets. If you would want your pet to be in a specific area of the house, there are extra fences that can be used. I will be able to monitor your dogs routine and needs. I will pay attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any other needs you put in. I will make sure to give regular updates through photos or calls.
“Blanca is awesome, she accommodated our last minute request and our pup had a lovely time. This is our first experience with her and we are very happy with her. We strongly recommend Blanca.”
“Angel was so great to work with! She was very communicative and she and her family took great care of our pup. She came home exhausted from a long day of play. Angel made sure to send plenty of pictures throughout the day as well! Thank you, Angel for the great care and peace of mind! ❤️”
“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!”
“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”
“Ursula was fantastic. She communicated very well with us during Marley's stay at her home. We really appreciated her care for our little dog when we were in Tucson for a brief stay.”

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: Through my life I have experienced taking care of family pets, from the puppy stage to crossing the rainbow bridge. I often think I love animals more than people. I am currently working from home part time with flexible hours, so I can play with and cuddle your fur babies as much as they want. I can board, pet sit or just walk your dog weekdays or weekends day or night. I have a fenced in yard with one senior dog. I can crate a dog up to 40lbs. We can go for walks if desired.

About: I haven't had my own pets in a long time, but I've cared for over a dozen pets that I treated like my own despite belonging to others. I've introduced myself to and won over plenty of pets with my calm and collected approach. The majority of my pet care experience has been through visiting the homes of family friends to give their dogs bathroom breaks and be sure they have some company for a while as their owners are at work or on vacation. On multiple occasions, I've also stayed overnight for multiple days at a time. Because of this, I'm well equipped to meet your pets smoothly and cohabitate with them. I currently work remotely and have plans to attend college online, so I'll have more than enough time to visit at the very least. I can absolutely stay over, as I can simply work wherever I have my laptop if need be. Your pets will always be the first priority, of course. I do not have pets of my own at the moment, but I always treat other people's pets as if they were my own and with respect. If they want attention, they get it. If they want to be left alone, they will be left alone (within reason). Any instructions regarding feeding and medicine will be followed strictly.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a part of my everyday routine. I currently have a dog named Scout and a cat named Twig, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I love getting to know each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and energetic, shy and independent, or just looking for extra attention and cuddles. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I work part-time, allowing me flexibility for dog walks and pet drop-in visits throughout the week. Please contact me for availability, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. As a pet owner, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. During visits, I prioritize safety, consistency, and attention to detail. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, monitor your pet’s well-being, ensure they have fresh food and water and a clean environment, and provide updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.
About: My friends tell me that I am an animal whisperer haha! I love the company of an animal and giving it all of my love! I used to have a dog of my own, we were best friends, but unfortunately he passed away a few years ago. I’m not at the best spot in my life to have my own pet again so I wanted to find a way to still love on animals and have their presence! I currently have a full time job in St. Louis. I am available to WFH if I need to watch your pet(s) during the week!! More than happy to do so :) We have a very large yard/field behind my home but it is not fenced. I will be sure to have your puppy on a leash if need be!!! We also live in a neighborhood, off of the main road in town. I am also available to watch them in STL as I have family that live there!
About: I have 30 years of experience with dogs. I am now retired and would love to spend time caring for your fur child. You'll find I am very reliable and a good communicator. I love playtime, walks and spending quality time with your pet. Will feed, give meds if needed, take outside to potty, bring in mail, and water plants if needed. Prefer to come to your home for care. Possibility of caring for your small dog in my home (fenced yard) as long as your dog is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, friendly with my little Norman and is fully potty trained. I like to say "Pets are people too!" meaning that they have feelings and deserve all the love they can get. I am now retired so very flexible for daily visits and will update all availability. I have a reliable vehicle. Available per visit or daily. I care for each pet as I would want my little one to be cared for. If care is in my home, I have a fully fenced back yard. I do like to spend quality time when I visit and will want to meet you ahead of time at no charge to make sure we are covering all care needs and to get to know your pet.
About: I’ve been in a dog household for as long as I can remember, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. From feeding and walking to playtime and giving them lots of attention, I’m very comfortable handling dogs and making sure they feel happy and safe. Being around dogs daily growing up has helped me understand their different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I’m also a very active person, which makes dog walking something I truly enjoy. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, a longer energy-burning outing, or just some companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to provide it. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time, so I can give your dog the attention and care they deserve. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels comfortable, exercised, and loved while in my care. I treat every dog like they’re my own and want both you and your pet to feel confident and at ease. I’m currently a student at a local university, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I typically have classes from 10 AM to 1 PM on most weekdays, but outside of that time I have plenty of availability for dog walks, drop-ins, or pet care. I’m usually free in the mornings before class, afternoons after 1 PM, and evenings. Because I have a lighter schedule outside of class, I’m able to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m happy to work with owners to find times that best fit their dog’s routine and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow any instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any specific care your pet may need. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection during visits. Whether that means going for a walk, playing with their favorite toys, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level. I also understand how important communication is for pet owners, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and doing well. I will always treat your home and your pets with respect and care.
About: I have cared for animals my whole life. I grew up on a small farm taking care of pigs, geese, chickens, steers, goats, cats dogs birds, turtles, hermit crabs, you name it! My schedule is quite flexible, and I’m happy to work around both of our schedules to accommodate any care needs. Have a special request? Just ask! I will always treat others’ pets as if they were my own. I am highly trustworthy and have owned and operated three different businesses in my young life, one of which I still run. Prior to that, I worked in healthcare. I take great pride in being dependable and trustworthy in all my endeavors.
About: I got my first dog when I was three and have always had 5+ animals in the house. I am good with any breed of dog. I have some puppy training experience and I can also work with disability animals. I just need to know if they have medication and the time to take them or other accommodations that they might need. I’m not sure if people have reptiles that need sitting but I’m good with those too. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with puppies or any other animals. I have always had a soft spot for animals so I love spending time with them. I have a dog who gets taken potty every couple of hours and is fed every morning and every night. I also have a cat and two leopard geckos. My cat and dog are usually upstairs so I can keep the other animals downstairs if they’re not pet friendly. My geckos stay in my room.
About: I've cared for and loved animals since I was born. Both parents were disabled so I was always there to make sure the animals were taken cate. Currently available at the animals and clients needs and wants. Let me know times and things needed and I can be there. Just a call or a text away. Just moved in to Pacific. Been around for 25 years and I have a huge yard and alot of space for them to hang out and enjoy the time here.
About: I love dogs! All dogs... big, small, smelly, playful. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as other's. Dogs generally love me as well. I learned most of what I know about caring for dogs from The Dog Whisperer. He really knows his stuff! Does your dog need walks and some extra training? I can handle that no problem and really enjoy seeing a dog respond to training and play. I use positive reinforcement while working with dogs. I love walking for fitness and love it even more when I have a pup to join me. While pet sitting, I can also care for plants, etc. I enjoy gardening so if you have a garden and require house/pet sitting, consider me your person! My schedule is very flexible. I currently work gig jobs and freelance, remote accounting projects. If I am house/pet sitting for you I can accommodate whatever schedule your animals usually follow. I will follow whatever rules/instructions are laid out for me. Safety is number 1 and I am sure to keep owners updated on any issues promptly.
About: I’ve had my dog Teddy for three years, and my cat Squash for two. I love animals of all kinds and have been asked by family and friends since a young age to help them take care of animals.

Your pets will be in good hands with me My schedule is really open right now, so I’m available for whatever your pet may need. I understand how important schedules can be, which is why I like being flexible.

I’m currently full time graduate student, but I have some free afternoons with plenty of time to walk your pets! I am also flexible to do drop ins for potty breaks and evening feedings. I do not have any pets but I can help care for your pet with walks! If there are specific needs your dog requires such as to be crated after walks I am more than willing to follow any directions for making sure your pet is safe and comfortable!

I will always be just a phone call or text message away if you have any questions, or just want to check in! I’m able and willing to send updates your way during my time with your pets to provide peace of mind, as well as to establish trust. I have a vehicle, and am able to take your pets to and from a veterinary clinic in case of emergency.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started caring for pets around age 6 and have continued ever since. I’ve worked in an animal shelter, giving me experience with a wide range of behaviors, personalities, and care needs. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for exotics such as reptiles, spiders, and birds. I treat every pet like my own and tailor my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. Im currently available 5 days a week could do some check ins on weekends. Im unable to to boarding but can dog walk and check on pets. I am a single mother so I do have to make time for my daughter on top of loving many animals. Most days I am available after 8:30am to 2:30pm sometimes until 5pm. I have a fenced yard i would habe to do a meet and greet with the pets in my household and other pets from other homes first if I had them stay with me.
About: I have always taken care of dogs since I was a little kid. I have currently two dogs of my own and in the past have had cats guinea pigs, and other animals that have lived long happy healthy lives. I’m very reliable and dependable, and I would love to care for your pets! I’m currently only working part time which gives me lots of time with your pets I can do Monday's through Fridays from 8:30 to 4:30 but that is flexible if needed! I currently have two female dogs, both spayed, very energetic and love to play and would love to give your pup company unfortunately I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I am very good at keeping my attention on the dogs at all times your pets would be very safe and looked after
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.
“We have used Barbara multiple times. She always communicates well and is extremely nice to our dog. We appreciate having someone so reliable and never have any doubts about the care and attention given to our dog. Would absolutely recommend her.”
About: I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and how important it is to find someone who gets how much your pet means to you. That’s why when caring for others’ pets, I treat them how I’d want someone to care for my own — with lots of love, attention, and playfulness…or calm comfort (whichever suits them best!). I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines, and always keep you updated with cute pics and notes, if desired. Whether your dog’s super social or a couch cuddler, I’ll make sure they feel loved, happy, and cared for! With being in charge of my own schedule, I have the opportunity to be flexible and accommodate many time-based needs. As a private practice clinician, my work hours are typically shorter and of a different time frame than the average 9-5. I have spare time on my hands during week days (and weekends) when most need care! My area of availability is broad as well as I’m local to the Franklin County area, but work in Chesterfield. While I don’t offer in home care out of love and respect for my own dog-children, I can accommodate your environment — whether that be one inside, outside with no fence, outside with a fence, etc.
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.

“Nikki is AMAZING and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a Rover sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure your fur children are safe, happy, and entertained while in her care. Quigley loves going to boarding or daycare with Nikki and her fur babies! Plus Quigley always comes back to me tired from all of the play and fun he has had! Can’t wait for our next stay with Nikki”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Elizabeth. She took care of my dog for 2 1/2 weeks, sent a photo & comment every day about how Bessie was doing, and it was obvious she is passionate about animals! Because of her experience working for a vet I felt very comfortable that she was giving Bess her medicine, and since Bess is an older dog, she and her family gave her lots of cuddles and care. I won’t hesitate to ask her to dog sit again! Bessie also formed a friendship with one of their family’s dogs. She was very happy there!!”
“Tamara was very responsive and helpful in coordinating Willow's weekend stay. She shared pics and updates. I could tell my pup got lots of love and attention. She also had a blast playing with Tamara's pups. I'm hoping to continue to bring Willow there for doggie day care and even longer boarding visits.”
“This was our first time using Rover for our 8 year old lab. We read so many reviews that were positive for Misty and decided she was the perfect fit for our sweet Willow. Misty watched our baby for 9 days while we were out of the country. She sent photos and our girl came home as happy and content as could be. She has not done well being boarded in the past so this was a wonderful stay for her and a huge relief for us. We recommend Misty and her family 100%. She has a huge back yard and she and her family are animal lovers so you can be at peace that your fur baby will be well loved and happy. We will definitely book again with Misty in the future!”
“Tiffiny was great! She communicated well, sent periodic updates and pics and my dog Bella got plenty of exercise and outdoors time in her fenced in back yard. Tiffiny is also conveniently located very near my home so drop off and pick up was easy. I will definitely bring Bella back to stay with Tiffiny the next time I travel.”
“Rachell was amazing and great to our doggies! They barely wanted to come home. We got updates and pictures and they loved the outdoor time. Will definitely be using her again soon! Thanks Rachell!”
“Taylor & Sam were amazing! Communicative, treated the dogs so well. Daily updates & lots of exercise. Also flexible because of my hectic schedule. I haven’t felt this comfortable with someone watching my dogs for awhile. Great job!”
“Champ had a great time on his staycation with Morgan and Eric. They took great care of him and gave me regular updates. I appreciated the clear communication and sweet photos!”
“Wonderful experience. They treated my babies like one of their own. They sent a bunch of pictures and provided updates regularly. I had no worries about my pups care, I knew they were in good hands. I would definitely book with them again.”
“My dog Apollo loved his time at Beth's house. He was able to spend a lot of time playing in her fenced backyard, which is his favorite things to do, and Beth kept me updated regularly with pictures of him playing. We would definitely book with Beth again in the future.”
“Dawn has done a great job. My dogs were happy and very well taken care of. She knew exactly what to do all the time. She sent pictures often and I felt very confident they were in the best possible hands. Thank you very much!”
“Brianna and her family were so awesome with our dog, Emmy. This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Emmy had lots of play time, pets, and snuggles. She even came home with her own bag of home made doggie treats! I will book Brianna for future stays.”
“Thanks for loving on our Benny-Boo while we were away. The few pictures you provided gave me peace of mind but I do hate to learn at pick up he wasn’t eating as usual. I think he just missed us since he ate just fine once we got him home. Thanks again, hope you enjoyed the sweet treats from our trip!”
“Dear Rover friends, we highly recommend Samantha and her lovely family for taking excellent care of our 4year Australian Shepherd, Jasper! Thank you so much Sam for treating him like family :) We enjoyed getting updates with photos :)”
“Very good with my nervous boy. She played with him and gave him the attention he needed! She was very familiar with his high energy breed which made me more comfortable about it!”
“Dave and his wife did such a fabulous job with Hank. We can’t thank them enough for watching him for us. It is nice to know he is being well takin care of while we are out of town.”
