“Jennifer really helped us out when my daughter brought her baby to town and was worried about Dougie’s loud barking when the baby was trying to sleep. She kept him a few nights and he seems happy and well-cared for. She kept in good touch and made me feel assured that everything was fine…thanks again, Jennifer!”
“This was our first time ever using Rover. I’m quite pleased with it and for sure will use this service again! Laronna was so pleasant and awesome. We did a meet and greet a few days before the reservations. I was very comfortable with her right after. She gave me updates and pics daily which was so sweet. I will book again with her in the future. If you’re hesitant like I was in the beginning, she definitely changed that quickly.”
“Katie was absolutely wonderful and cared for our dogs like her own. She sent us photos of them playing well with her sweet dogs and family. Gave us such peace of mind when we were out of town, would 100% book again”
“Ebony made sure Creux felt right at home, she was extremely accommodating and very attentive to his needs. She sent frequent updates and I appreciated it. Creux didn't want to come home.”
“Leah was great! She took my dog in last minute and took amazing care of him! She made sure she knew exactly how to care for him and was very accommodating on caring for him a little longer than anticipated due to my traveling delays!”
“Tim and his wife are the best! I don’t trust just anyone with my pup, but when Chester stays with Tim, I don’t have a single worry! I have used Tim time and time again and couldn’t recommend him enough.”
“Chelsea is the best! I am truly thankful for her love and care of my cat Pippin. He was really comfortable and happy with her. She sent me videos and photos all week and I could see he was happy. That truly helped me to enjoy my vacation knowing he was being loved and cared for. Thank you Chelsea”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a little girl and to this day I rescue animals or I give them a safe home until I can find there forever homes. I’m a stay at home mom looking to make money for my kids. I’m available all day every day. I run on routine. I have a fenced in yard and a chocolate lab who loves to have friends to play with. I am always attentive and aware of all or any animals around me
“Francie is an AMAZING pet caregiver/sitter. She shared numerous updates with videos and pictures. Not only was my dog "Granny" well cared for, she had a blast. This was the first time that a family member did not keep Granny for me and I was concerned at first, but all of my concerns were gone with updates. I think my dog misses her buddies that she got to play with.”
“I made some last minute changes and Karen was still accommodating. This was our first “daycare” experience. It went great, the pics and frequent updates were most appreciated:)”
“Quia took excellent care of Olivia this pass weekend. She took pictures and videos of Olivia's staycation and I must say my Olivia had a good weekend. My highlight was Olivia playing with Quia on video. I highly recommend Quia.”
“First let me say, I am one of those nervous dog moms, I felt at ease right away. She sent me pics daily of my baby & a video. You could tell he was happy & made himself at home bc he felt comfortable & loved. It was nice to receive the updates with little tid bits on my fur baby. Ivy noticed the little things about gizmo right away, like his sleeping habits, & that brought my comfort level Way up! Thank you so much for everything. We had also toyed with the idea of extending our vacation one more day lol we will def be rebooking!”
“Uno was in great hands! All the updates with pictures and videos were comforting to know he was okay while we were out of town. No issues and he even met a new friend :) Thanks again!”
“Tre’Ana was a wonderful sitter for my puppy. It was extremely last minute and she was so patient and caring for my last minute trip and did an amazing job of taking care of my pup. The pictures she sent of my pup and giving me updates you can see how happy he was in her home. I highly recommend her services. With the global computer outage I was running late to pick up my puppy and she stayed up late and was incredibly patient with me. She went above and beyond for a stranger like me and for my dog which is incredibly important so I thank you Tre’Ana for being such a great care taker. I plan on using her again for my trip this week. I recommend you do the same if you want excellent professional care.”
“Laura was such an amazing host with watching my dog Aspen for a few days while I was out of town. It’s hard to find a sitter but Laura didn’t hesitate to take my dog in, I got tons of videos/pictures of my dog and updates as well! Such a wonderful experience and I’ll be sure to book with her again!”
“Briana seriously saved us! Our original sitter canceled the same day right before our spring break trip, and Briana stepped in without hesitation. She kept us updated with pics and videos the whole time and was so friendly and easy to work with. Our dog Nyla enjoyed her stay so much! Especially the walks and dog park! We’ll definitely be using her again! Thank you sooo much Briana!! We appreciate you a lot!”
“Jacob is a wonderful pet sitter. He took care of my two cats and kept me updated with pics and notes about how they were doing. One of my cats’ had trouble adjusting but he encouraged her everyday to come out of her safe place. She finally came out on the last day. So I will definitely use him again. By the way he took my cats in an emergency situation and contacted me right away. Thank you to Rover, but mostly a huge shout out and thank you to Jacob.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for family and friends most of my life, but especially in the last 6 years. I’ve become the go-to person to care for friends’ pets and feel comfortable following detailed care instructions. My aim is to provide peace of mind while you are away from your beloved pet(s). My seasonal job allows me to spend all day with my pets and I believe a tired dog is a happy dog. That means long walks, lots of playtime, and reinforcement of their training. For cats, a routine is key and I love getting to see their personalities come out as I gain their trust. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex. I enjoy taking my dog for long walks in the neighborhood and bringing him to nearby parks for a change of scenery.
“Sara is extremely easy to work with, communicative, and reliable. She came through for my family at the last minute and did an amazing job. I highly recommend her services”

I've raised many puppies in my life time. I have two of my own that are now 2 and 5. They're everything to me. There's absolutely no better feeling than hearing the pitter patter of their feet on the floor as they're coming to attack me with love and kisses. I've never been without at least one dog in my household as long as I've been alive and I wouldn't have it any other way. I've also played sports my whole life so I love being active and playing games with the pups. I'm currently working part time so my availability is pretty open for the most part right now. I'm mainly unavailable after 4pm on Tuesdays and Fridays. I have two full sized crates at my home and a fenced in back patio with great sun for sunbathing. If I'm in your home, I'll respect your home as if it were mine & make sure the babies get soo much lot of love and attention. Picture/ video updates as often as you'd like. ❤️
“Calvin, my cat, is very reserved around people he does not know, and yet he fell in love with Tonya at their first sight. I had never left my two kitties for so long before and was concerned about what their reaction might be. Thankfully, they easily adapted to my going away and my coming home due to Tonya's exceptional care.”

I do have a cat who spends majority of the time in our bedroom other than eating.
“Julie was a life saver! We were stood up by our original sitter, and she took Yuna in last minute. It felt reassuring to leave Yuna with her. Even though it was just for the afternoon, it seemed she got along with Julie's dogs and was exercised enough to have her sleep all throughout our road trip back home! Also kept us updated with pictures which was great.”

“Pickup and droppoff was easy. From the beginning she handled Ace with care. Once we got home he laid down which is great because I asked if she could get some of his energy out and she definitely did. She also kept me updated throughout the day which I did appreciate. Will definitely be booking again.”
“I am very pleased Truess met us at the door greeted us with a well warm welcome we chatted for a minute she sent me pictures throughout the day telling me how Sasha was doing. It was a wonderful experience. We will definitely see her again soon. Thank you so much for caring for our baby.”
About: I took many online classes on proper safety for boarding/ daycare with multiple dogs. You want someone active and fun, who loves dogs unconditionally? I'm your gal. Walks, games, positive reinforcement training and mental exercise are all included in my time. I'm a creature of routine. My house gets up at 6am sharp. We like structure and in the dog world, you can't function without it. I used to work for a dog daycare and because I feel so strongly about the safety of dogs, I'd prefer small, safe groups over large groups that are no good for your dogs health. I treat your dogs like my kids. We play together, take naps together, get some exercise and I even like to teach good habits with positive reinforcement! Dogs are my best friends.

“Sarah went above and beyond and notified me of a leak in my kitchen when she came to walk my dog. Without her prompt attention the water would’ve continued flowing for several more hours!”
“Quia is excellent in how she handled Snacks, a 95 lb Akita with a lot of energy. She took charge right away and calmed him down. A true professional. Thank you so much, you are the BEST! Andrea McCartney (MsAMac)”

I’ve looked after everything from 14-week-old puppies to senior rescues.

I create a calm, safe environment for each dog, keep communication open with regular updates, and do everything I can to make sure both you and your pup feel secure and supported.

I will be able to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I am more than happy to follow any instructions you may have to keep your pet on schedule and comfortable while you're away!
About: I’m excited to begin my pet-sitting journey, as I’ve always had a nurturing spirit and love for our four legged friends! While I didn’t grow up with pets in my home, I had the joy of dog sitting for family friends and raising several dogs on my own, including one I welcomed home straight from the kennel. Raising Bruno was especially lovely because he felt like my first child. It wasn’t just the potty training and feedings that made the experience meaningful, but the beautiful bond we built together because one that felt much like a mother’s love for her son. That time in my life meant more to me than words can fully express. With my natural connection with animals, other people’s pets often bond with me quickly. Through daily walks, cuddle time, and attentive care, I’ve learned how to recognize and meet each pet’s unique personality and needs. When I care for a pet, I treat them like family, with patience, reliability, and the same level of love and attention I gave my own. Now that we’re empty nesters, I’d love to care for your pets, giving them the love and care they need while their family is away! Is your pet used to to a 9-5 work schedule? I’m the perfect fit! I work a full time job, Monday-Friday, 8a-4:30p or 9a-5:30p during the week. However, I work only minutes away from home, so on my breaks I can easily check in on our furry friend if they’re staying with me for the week. If I’m watching your pet at your home, I am no more than 2 minutes away from the highway and no more that 20-30 minutes away from everything in the lovely city of St. Louis. After work, whether boarding or house sitting, our furry friend will have my full attention. We will get in some exercise, and then wind down with dinner, Netflix and cuddles of course! Also, I am absolutely flexible on the weekends, so they will be loaded with cuddles and playtime! I offer attentive, personalized pet care tailored to your furry friend’s unique needs, whether care takes place in my home or yours. When pets stay with me, I create a cozy, clean, and safe environment where they can truly feel at home. They’re welcome to get comfortable on the couch, soak up plenty of head and belly rubs, while enjoying a calm, loving space. While I don’t work from home during the day, I’m very present in the mornings, evenings, and throughout the weekends to give your pet the time, attention, and affection they deserve. I have a fenced, nicely sized backyard ready for play and relaxation, along with a walkable, pet-friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for enjoyable walks and fresh air. I do my best to follow your pet’s regular eating, exercise, and potty routine to keep their schedule consistent. I understand how important reliability and familiarity are for pets, and I’m committed to making this a stress-free experience for both you and your beloved companion. We can enjoy on- or off-leash playtime in the backyard or common areas based on your comfort level and preferences. No matter which service you choose, you can trust that your pet will be cared for with the same love, patience, and attentiveness as if they were my own.

I’m still available to do check ins every 2-4hrs for potty breaks on those days. My home is very spacious, plus I have a dog park within walking distance. I prefer dogs that’s kid friendly as I do have a toddler.
About: I have successfully cared for 4 litters of 8-12 puppies. I currently own three. American Staffshord Terriers, Azul is 7 years of age and Bonnie is 6 years old and Deuce is 3 years old. I have trained 4 adult dogs. I have my dogs on insurance plans through Banfield Hospital, allowing me to gain knowledge from the vets in attendance and apply the knowledge with my dogs daily. I have dealt with an aggressive dog once and though it was challenging, we made great strides together with the assistance of the dogs parents. The outcome of working with Sebastian and his mom was that Sebastian had become more sociable allowing him to attend doggy play dates, go out to the dog park, and walk with out any issues with other dogs. I currently work overnight, so the first few hours I’m home I tend to my dogs, let them out to the backyard once I’m in and situated, feed them, back out to the yard and then for a walk. Do some quick daily commands & then I sleep and repeat prior to going into work for the evening. On my off days it’s the same routine, but more training and yard time. I would be walking dogs so I would tend to the dogs as instructed or if asked for pointers I would work with the dog and see what works best for that dog in particular and share that knowledge with the parents.
About: I am an animal lover who has grown up with and cared for dogs my whole life. I am a college student, majoring in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation. This has given me experience caring for many different kinds of animals such as songbirds, small mammals, and reptiles. My biggest passion in life is caring for animals, and I would love to care for your dogs!! I am currently home from college for the summer, and have plenty of time to care for your dog. While there are specific dates that I will be unavailable, I have a very free and flexible schedule outside of those dates. I know all dogs have different personalities and needs. I am happy to do whatever is necessary to make sure your dog is comfortable and happy.
About: My experience in pet care is broad and customized to each animal's specific requirements. I have experience working with older pets, adult dogs, and puppies, so I have a comprehensive understanding of their unique needs regarding care. I am different from other sitters because I take a different approach to establishing comfort and trust. I place a high priority on positive reinforcement methods, particularly for puppies, as it helps them learn important commands while making sure they have fun. I concentrate on the unique medical requirements of elderly pets, such as managing medicines and addressing mobility issues. I work hard to provide every pet in my care a loving environment, whether it means attending to their specific nutritional needs, exercise requirements, or affection. I work flex at Amazon so my schedule is pretty open. Just tell me what days you need me and I’ll do my best to accommodate for that. I take the time to learn about the unique personality and preferences of each pet, which makes them feel more at ease. I am open in my communication with pet owners about their unique habits and any worries they may have.
About: In my house growing up there were many different cats, dogs, guinea pigs, fish, gerbils, and even a tortoise. I also have experience taking care of chickens and pigs. I love pets and I have been missing mine since I moved to St. Louis in August. I work every weekday from 10-645 so I am free after that. My weekends are open. I am totally free on most Saturdays and Sundays. I will make sure that I have all the information I need before I start watching a pet. The client's contact, neighbors contacts, any additional necessary phone numbers, etc. I will make sure I know all I can about the pet before I am left with them.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 and have experience with all sizes—from tiny Chihuahuas to big breeds like German Shepherds and Presa Canarios. I’m confident handling high-energy pups, gentle with seniors, and patient with shy or stubborn personalities. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, or meds, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pup like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! 🐾 Monday- Friday: Available after 5pm 🐾 Saturdays: Available all day 🐾 Sundays: Available all day I’m happy to work with your schedule when I can, so feel free to reach out with any questions! While I don’t currently offer overnight boarding, I do have a fenced-in backyard where my dogs love to run and play—it’s a great space for safe outdoor time! As for my cat, she’s not a fan of the outdoors, but I still make sure she gets enrichment and movement by taking her on walks when she’s in the mood. I’m all about giving pets what they need to feel happy, safe, and comfortable.

About: I had a dog growing up as a kid and I also took care of my neighbors dogs all the time when they went on vacation. I am a dog lover. I love all dogs they are all cute to me. I am high energy and love to go for walks and runs and love to play with dogs and make them feel happy and tire them out so they can sleep well. I am available almost always and love to help you out as I can. Your dog is going to have a great time on walks and runs or just throwing a ball around for him to chase whatever I can do to make your dog happy I will do. Thank you kindly

“Linda and Dwight are always so great with our dog. We can tell he enjoys his stay with them and we get updates and photos of him through the day, which we love. Will definitely book again!”
“Annie is amazing. Our pittie, Mishka, stayed with Annie for two weeks while we went abroad and the experience could not have been better! We have trialed a few foods after Mishka had some GI issues and Annie was very communicative about how Mishka was doing on the kibble we recently started. Also, Annie lets the dog warm up at his/her own pace. Mishka takes a little time to warm up to new people and Annie was so patient with him.

About: I am a dog lover with grown children just 10 minutes from Lambert Airport. Your dogs will have free reign of the fenced yard and home. I have baby gates strategically placed in case we would need to separate them yet still have the enjoyment of family life. I have a large kennel available for comfort at night and when I am away if they prefer. Your dog can enjoy walks to the park for exercise and boredom busting or running if they prefer to stretch there legs (I am up to about 3 miles running). I also keep a kiddie pool full of clean water for the dogs who like to splash and cool off. I have 2 friendly dogs myself who are always up to having company. My 19 year old daughter also lives in the house, she is also a dog lover and has gone to training classes at the human society. She enjoys training dogs and teaching the dogs sign language. About this sitter: Mom to 2 grown children and 2 furbabies. I do work full time remotely at home. I volunteer with Special Olympics and St. Louis Track Club. I enjoy gardening and walking with my dogs. Why I love dog sitting I have always loved dogs it was not until I was 13y.o. when we came across a dog that was going to be shot because he did not want any females that we convinced my Dad we needed to save that dog. That was 46 years ago. Since then I have had one-three dogs in my home ever since. They are family.
“Leah was great! She took my dog in last minute and took amazing care of him! She made sure she knew exactly how to care for him and was very accommodating on caring for him a little longer than anticipated due to my traveling delays!”
“Tim and his wife are the best! I don’t trust just anyone with my pup, but when Chester stays with Tim, I don’t have a single worry! I have used Tim time and time again and couldn’t recommend him enough.”
“Chelsea is the best! I am truly thankful for her love and care of my cat Pippin. He was really comfortable and happy with her. She sent me videos and photos all week and I could see he was happy. That truly helped me to enjoy my vacation knowing he was being loved and cared for. Thank you Chelsea”

“Cyndy and her family were wonderful hosts for our dog, Mando! They made time to do a meet and greet and asked lots of great questions. She was so great at sending updates and I could tell they were taking very good care of Mando. Will definitely use them again!”
“Jordan was amazing with my dog! She sent frequent picture updates, which I really appreciated, and my dog looked so happy the entire time. She honestly didn’t even want to leave her place. I’d absolutely book with her again.”
“Quia took excellent care of Olivia this pass weekend. She took pictures and videos of Olivia's staycation and I must say my Olivia had a good weekend. My highlight was Olivia playing with Quia on video. I highly recommend Quia.”
“First let me say, I am one of those nervous dog moms, I felt at ease right away. She sent me pics daily of my baby & a video. You could tell he was happy & made himself at home bc he felt comfortable & loved. It was nice to receive the updates with little tid bits on my fur baby. Ivy noticed the little things about gizmo right away, like his sleeping habits, & that brought my comfort level Way up! Thank you so much for everything. We had also toyed with the idea of extending our vacation one more day lol we will def be rebooking!”
“Uno was in great hands! All the updates with pictures and videos were comforting to know he was okay while we were out of town. No issues and he even met a new friend :) Thanks again!”
“Catherine did a great job at caring for our dog. When we pick him up he’s usually pretty eager to leave, but before we left he had to go over to Catherine and get extra pets from her ? we plan on using her services again.”
“Laura was such an amazing host with watching my dog Aspen for a few days while I was out of town. It’s hard to find a sitter but Laura didn’t hesitate to take my dog in, I got tons of videos/pictures of my dog and updates as well! Such a wonderful experience and I’ll be sure to book with her again!”
“Briana seriously saved us! Our original sitter canceled the same day right before our spring break trip, and Briana stepped in without hesitation. She kept us updated with pics and videos the whole time and was so friendly and easy to work with. Our dog Nyla enjoyed her stay so much! Especially the walks and dog park! We’ll definitely be using her again! Thank you sooo much Briana!! We appreciate you a lot!”
“Very professional when it comes to babysitting your dog and she has a great deal of experience in training. My dogs now now how to sit and give there paw. I would highly recommend. I will be using her services again. Thanks again Sara”
