“I am totally happy about Molly’s stay with Laronna. Laronna and her parents cared for Molly like she was their own. Laronna sent me pictures and information about Molly every day, which helped me relax and not worry about her. Also, I’m sure Molly enjoyed being with Laronna’s sweet little dog and having a nice backyard to use. Molly looked beautiful and happy when I picked her up. I highly recommend Laronna to anyone who needs someone to look after their fur baby.”

“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.”

She let him be comfortable and he definitely made himself comfortable! She was sweet, and kept great communication! And very flexible with me. We'll definitely reach out to her again”

While we were away for over a week, we received daily photo updates and detailed texts that gave us total peace of mind. Our dog most definitely got more attention and pampering than she does at home:) When we came home, our pup was relaxed, happy, and clearly well-cared for. We look forward to using Sarah on our next trip! Thank you, Sarah!!”

“Jordan is absolutely wonderful! She was communicative, responsible, and took such good care of my kitty. She even spent extra time with him and provided so many photos! She’s a joy to work with and I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking to book.”


“I came home to a happy and healthy kitty!!!!!! Taylor was very easy to communicate with and it was so great to know my cat was being taken great care of while I was away!!!!!!”


About: Hi! My name is Paige and I am a PhD student in the St. Louis area. I have two cats of my own that are my pride and joy, and grew up with many others in my home. Whether you have a kitten or a senior cat, I am happy to help you in any manner you may need!

“Latasha was wonderful! All the cats loved her as soon as they met her. She has a natural talent when it comes to getting to know your pets. She sent pictures of our cats to us everyday on vacation and was super responsive on her phone when we wanted to see our pets. It was such a relief knowing that she was here with them. One of the things I appreciated the most was that when we got here it was as clean as when we left it. She took all the notes and she performed the tasks laid out to her exactly like we did with the cats. She also helped keep them on their schedule by following their feeding times. Latasha played with them which is honestly more than I do sometimes. They may have gotten a little spoiled with all the attention lol. Each day she would send images but she'd also send a little story or observation of the cat. That was nice because it helped us to know that they were acting in their usual ways and not sad that we were gone and missed us. I would 1000% book Latasha again. If you've never had a cat sitter (we hadn't) she will answer all your questions and really set your nerves at ease.”


“We had a good experience with Elinor caring for our cats. She was friendly, communicative, and spent time with them during the visits. We appreciated the updates and the effort she put into making sure they were comfortable while we were away.💖💕”

“My second time working with Alexandra. She's always prompt and accommodating. And my little babies like to play with her. It took one of them a little bit of time to warm up... Cats... But now she probably won't be able to keep them off of her lol Thank you”


“Sophia is great! She is very caring and attentive. My cat had a very good time under her care. I always look forward to her daily updates on my cat and they are always very detailed and cute. I highly recommend her service!”

“Sydney you did such an amazing job from day one. The girls didn’t have get to know you. You had their heart from day 1. We did so good with knowing they were in great hands. You gave me all the info I was looking for and sent better pics than I have been able to get. Will use again for sure.”


“Summer was a delight to work with and our dogs loved her! She did as asked and always arrived and stayed for her drop ins as arranged. We would definitely hire Summer again for drop ins with our dogs loved:)”


“Karen was fantastic and professional. She came to meet my cat before her drop-in visits and immediately made me and my family feel comfortable. I feel lucky to have found her on my first time using Rover!”

About: I have had animals in my house since I was a child. My cats act more like dogs and love to play and have fun yet they can still be calm and cuddly. I would love to create memories with your pets as well! I currenlty spend 3 days working from and can be there for your pet when they need me. They are also able to keep me company as I watch movies or binge tv shows. They are always allowed a cuddle to sleep or a cuddle on the couch. I have a fenced in yard but can also have your dog leashed and taken on a walk or tethered in the yard. They will always have access to food and water and are fed on whatever schedule you would like them to be fed on. Playtime is also my favorite. I have a lot of open space in my home and have a room where they would be able to go if they prefer to not be around other animals.
“We have used Jolene’s “Stop By” service several times now, while away on vacation, and she does a great job every time! Highly recommend! Thank you for taking such great care of Malkina Jolene!”

“I was very anxious about leaving Lucia for the first time. I adopted her only 4 months before my trip, and she was finally getting used to me and feeling at home. She usually hides from people she doesn't know. I needn't have worried with Jade. After a few days, Lucia was showing affection for Jade. Before I came home, my scaredy cat was sitting in Jade's lap feeling safe and loved. I will most definitely hire Jade again!”

About: Hi! I’m Juanita and I grew up with my dad always saying, “if you find someone who’s not good with dogs, they're not good with people either.” I have had dogs since I have a memory, thanks to that I've always been around the good people. Everyone in my family has dogs and I sit for them whenever they need it. My work is very flexible so I have time to go out for walks or stay home with my furry friends. Sometimes I work only one or two hours a day so I need something to do the rest of the day. Nugget is very well trained and doesn’t give anyone any trouble. He’s a people pleaser and only interacts with dogs if they want to play catch. We go on big walks, then play and then nap.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for and training dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I understand canine behavior, use positive reinforcement techniques, and prioritize every dog's safety, happiness, and routine. Your dog will receive attentive, reliable care, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection while you're away. I am a full time pastor, with a very flexible schedule. I am where you need me to be! And make the time needed to spend time with your fury friend! I have a fenced yard that is safe and reliable. I also have two other furry friends that could keep your friend company if desired. I also have the ability to kennel if that is what your furry friend is comfortable with I also can make any kind of accommodations for your satisfaction.

About: I have 6 years of experience caring for cats and 3 years with dogs. I trained my dog when he was a puppy, rescued stray cats and helped a lost dog find a new home. Also introduce my second cat who is a strayed cat to my first cat. I’m currently in my gap year so I have lots of time to caring your cat or dogs (also puppy!) Pet care fits into my daily routine as I enjoy spending time training, feeding, and playing with them. Boarding pets will have their own bedroom, and share the living room with/without resident cats depending on how they get along. I have a safe environment at home. There’s no child in home. Additionally, I have experience with pet training and caring for both rescueds and domestic pets. I ensure a loving and secure atmosphere for your furry companions.
“Haley was great with my dog! She asked great questions to get to know her beforehand and was very knowledgeable about bigger dogs. I will definitely have her come back!”

“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!”

About: What sets me apart is my patience, flexibility, and genuine love for animals. I understand that pets, like people, need time to warm up, so I always work on their schedule — not mine. As a mom of two students high school and college, caring for pets fills my heart and time with purpose. I’m dependable, respectful of your home, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and understood. This is my full-time occupation, I don’t mind driving or going the extra mile to make sure your home and pets are cared for like family I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible.

I take time to earn their trust, give them space when needed, and show affection when they’re ready. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions with care and attention to detail—just as I would for my own pets. My goal is to keep them happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away.

“Prompt, reliable, capable and could be a professional pet photographer all describe Hayley. She has been walking my 4 month old Golden Retriever puppy for several weeks. She arrives at the requested time, she's patient with my energetic puppy and takes the best pictures (I've posted them on social media and my friends absolutely LOVE her!). She communicates in a timely manner. I work FT and need someone I can depend on to care for my pet, and Hayley has done a fantastic job doing it. Thank you so much.”

About: My experience with animals comes from caring for pets throughout my life, including my own dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with the everyday responsibilities that come with pet care, such as feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, maintaining routines, and providing companionship. I’ve also helped care for kittens from birth, which gave me hands-on experience with young animals and taught me the importance of patience, cleanliness, observation, and consistency. I understand that every pet is different, and I make an effort to learn each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs rather than treating every animal the same. Besides my taking care of my own pets my time is free I’m currently unemployed just a full time pet mom and wouldn’t mind taking care of other pets like my own I Have family that helps me take care of my pets at home if needed I also make sure my pets have everything they need when I leave according to how long I will be gone so no need to bring them with me

About: Hi I’m Emma! I work in natural resources/conservation, so naturally I love being outdoors. Being active is a stress reliever for me. I grew up with cats, but have always wanted a dog.

I’m available some daytime and evening hours and most weekends. I will be sure to leave your home how you left it. I’m excited to discover new parks with your dog and get in some major cuddle time with your cat. And expect lots of pictures. I’m available some day or weeknight times and most weekends. I work part-time so I have more flexibility than most. I also love going on walks. I always like to do a meet and greet with the pet before an overnight stay or multi day sitting. It allows me to get to know your pet, for you and your pet to get comfortable with me, and for any important information to get passed along.

She sent updates and videos throughout the weekend, which I appreciated so much, and it was clear that Koda was having an absolute blast. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. As a dog sitter myself, I can be a little picky about who I leave my dog with, and I would not hesitate to book with Lucy again. Highly recommend!”

We received pictures and updates throughout the duration of our vacation and were playing with the dogs when I picked them up. My pups were so well taken care of that they barely greeted me, which I took as a great sign! Thank you Evan and Kaleigh for giving us the peace of mind during our vacation!”

“Milo had a great stay at Paula’s. She made him feel very comfortable and was also very responsive. I also got his photos while we were away. 😊 Milo will definitely return. Highly recommend Paula if you are looking for a great pet sitter.”
