“Julia and her family were amazing with my dogs. She stayed in touch for the whole week that we were gone, sent pictures, and gave them lots of love. I would 110% recommend her to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter. I wish I could give her 10 stars but the scale only goes up to 5. She's so appreciated by our family and our pups. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Melinda is amazing! Our pup was so well taken care of. We've used rover plenty of times but she is the real deal. She loves dogs and tends to their every need. Winston came back to us so claim and relaxed. We will definitely rebook with melinda. Oh and no need to worry she takes so many pictures/videos keeping us uptodate, which was very comforting while being away for a week. Just can't say enough good things about her.”
“Emily took great care of my two cats. She sent pictures everyday and I could tell they were in good hands. There were no signs of stress in none of them, which is impressive. Thank you Emily :)”
“Tori and Malik were great! The first picture posted let me know Bonnie was very comfortable. They had a beautiful area to walk her and I could tell she was having a great time. So appreciative of their caring and loving feelings toward my Bon! A million thanks.”
“Amy and Aaron watched my two dogs over the weekend. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will certainly be using them again. They were very loving, kind, and patient with my dogs. They took the time to really help my 11 month old pup that was struggling being left at someone's house for the first time. They went above and beyond simply meeting each dog's needs. You can tell they are true animal lovers with good hearts. They were very flexible with us regarding pickup and dropoff. They also sent several pictures and updates which I appreciated. Their dog, Bella, was an absolute sweetheart and a perfect playmate.”
“Kalyn did a great job taking care of Jack for me. She sent several pictures to let me know Jack was happy and enjoying himself. He had a nice bug back yard to play in and he enjoyed having Kalyns Husky to play with and keep him company. I would book with Kalyn again.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for over 2 years in our house and in others as well. I have two kids that help to learn responsibility, work ethic, and love! I teach and coach so my availability will vary but I’m available on most weekends, summers, and holidays. I look forward to the opportunity to take care of your babies! I have a very friendly family dog at our fenced in house. I live in a pet friendly area with multiple floors and levels to take care of your fur babies!
“Tina and her husband were great! They were available on short notice, able to accommodate my dog’s every need, always took him for enough exercise, and were very responsive to texts and were always sending updates and pics! 5 stars! Already booked again!”
About: Looking for an experienced animal sitter or affordable daycare that is flexible? Woof, I am your gal! From 13 years of combined dog training and behavioral training, I may as well be an animal mind reader! My approaches to pet care are holistic and it doesn't get more organic than loving and working with animals. I've also had many years of experience with small animals, fish and reptiles. If you need a small sitter, I'm all yours! MEET & GREET: I do my meet and greets differently than most. I have TWO meet and greets. The first is with owners alone for a tour of my house, going over routines and any additional care and concerns. This is very helpful as exciting dogs barking can be overwhelming. The second meet and greet is at a basic place like a park or OUTSIDE of dog park. My schedule and routine is pretty flexible, yet still manageable and structured. My daycare hours are Mon-Fri from 8AM to 5:30PM, though I can work around your schedule only on those days. Boarding is available 7 days a week during the night with check in times anywhere 2PM to 7PM, checkouts 8AM next day unless specified otherwise (in the event I am unavailable with a week advance notice). Dog walks and dog check-ins are only Saturday evenings, various hours. BITE POLICY: I understand that accidents happen and I am equipped to handle a bite from a dog/cat as well as ensure the safety of animal to animal bites. If your pet bites me, another person or pet, I will immediately contact you with details of the event. I will report ALL bites to Rover. Depending on the situation, someone will need to pick up pet(s) within 6 hours of contact and bite. It is up to Rover to issue a refund depending on circumstances. You MUST book your request through Rover and MUST pay via Rover for them to ensure a refund. I will NOT refund if you have paid via CashApp, check, Venmo, cash, etc. if you are required to pick up your pet(s). If I assess the situation and feel it's risky to board/sit your pet I will decline future requests. NOTE: You MUST book/CONFIRM your requests via ROVER! When you send your requests to me, I will book it and you must confirm via Rover in order for me to watch your pets. Pending request will be denied of service. NOTE: Boarding is charged by the NIGHT. For example, if you request for me to board your pets Jan 8th thru Jan 17th, they MUST be picked up ON the 17th, not the next day on Jan 18th. Please factor in how late you will arrive and if it's the next day you will have to pay for that night. This works just like a hotel stay. You will be charged a $20 fee for each pet if you need to extend stays. NOTE: Please make sure your pets are free from fleas and parasites! Upon meet and greet provide proof of recent medication, vet summaries, and other remedies. I no longer provide daycare services, only boarding, walks, and check ins. I currently have 5 cats and 1 dog. Walking and at home check ins are anywhere from 1-3 hours Sat evenings. I will walk around neighborhood only if a safe and trusted area. I also will care for cat in home visits. All required is specific walking and care instructions.
About: I have always had people come to me to take care of their pets because to me they are family and they deserve that treatment. I am an athlete at SEMO so I don’t get to see animals often, but they are one of my most favorite things in the world. Besides school and sports they would be my main priority and it would mean a lot to take care of them when I am available. I can easily take care of your dog the way you would like me to, but if you feel the need for them to have extra care such as taking walks or playing catch I can do that as well.

About: I’ve taken care of cats for 15 years! I grew up on a farm with a lot of cats, that required medication administration and special attention.

“Working with Amy and Aaron was a wonderful experience. Amy picked up my cats from the airport and housed them overnight when I got stranded in a blizzard. They did it on only a few hours notice, provided exemplary care, and even delivered them to me when I finally arrived in town. I’d use Amy and Aaron again in a heartbeat.”
About: Cats have always been my favorite animal! I’ve had lots of experience rescuing strays, bottle feeding babies separated from their moms (my own cat included), and trapping cats for TNR for the local shelter. I LOVE cats of all kinds!

I’m also very organized when it comes to how often and how much of a distance my own dog needs to walk. I want to ensure that animals and their owners can trust me at all times. I’m currently attending college and can be very flexible throughout the week because 5 days out of the week I have a free afternoon! I am able to work around your schedule! I treat peoples pets like they are my own. I would be meeting at your home and would love for the pet to remain to feel so loved, safe, and comfortable.

“So happy I found Liana on Rover!! I was in town for my daughter’s SFA volleyball tournament. I have a 60lb goldendoodle who has separation anxiety.
