“I have had wonderful experiences with Paula as my sitter for my 75lb boy, Jagger. She is very responsive with updates while I'm away. It has been a true comfort having someone so caring watch him while I'm away. I highly recommend her.”
“Jenna was super easy to communicate with and they took great care of our dog! Mo had the best time with them. We are super grateful they were willing to watch our very energetic dog :)”
“I'm very grateful Lucy was available this weekend. Maggie seemed to have had a great time and was very happy when she got home. Lucy's pick-up and drop-off was very punctual and she was available for an early drop-off when I returned home early in the day. Layla, Lucy's dog, seems to be a great playmate for Maggie. Got pictures of them playing and resting together every day. Will book again!”
“Sarah took great care of our golden retriever, Phoenix, while we took a brief vacation. He fit in well with her dog, and we got many great pictures from Sarah to update us while we were away. We were super comfortable with our dog's stay even though we had never left him with anyone before. I heartily recommend Sarah for you and your dog.”
“Nicole and Tim were absolutely great! Good communicators and sent photos and updates throughout our dogs stay. She can be a little particular but settled in immediately and it felt like she got her own vacation while we were on ours. Will definitely book them again!”
“Sarah and the service she offered was awesome! Sarah made sure to communicate, send daily photos, and asked questions to better serve my fur baby 🐶❤️ If needed, I will definitely book Sarah again!”
“Our pup absolutely loved every minute staying with Shaina! Each photo update was adorable and she was incredibly kind and flexible when our travel plans shifted which was an added bonus. We can’t wait to book with her again!!”
“Guinness had such a good time at Sidney's house with her dog. He was exhausted and a little sad to leave them. She sent videos and pictures so I could see what Guinness was up to. Ill definitely be using her again!”
“Ben took excellent care of my dog, Willa, during her four-night stay at his home. From the moment she arrived, she was instantly comfortable with him. He sent daily photo updates, showing Willa happy, relaxed, and enjoying her time. I especially appreciated that he allowed her on the furniture and even let her sleep in his bed, which made her feel right at home. Beyond being a great sitter, Ben is super chill and easy to get along with, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. It’s clear he truly cares for the dogs he watches, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again!”
“Julie was nice and helpful, had no issues at all, Jacob was very relaxed when i picked him up, which is a great indicator that he was relaxed with julie”
“We have booked Leslie twice now, and she is great with our dog! She goes above and beyond to ensure that your pet is safe and well cared for. She responds quickly to messages and sends lots of photos. I didn't worry about our dog at all while she was with Leslie.”
“Absolutely amazing experience! I needed a last-minute place for my Husky for an extended trip, and Marie was everything my little guy needed and more. She sent photos daily and made the entire process simple and easy. I'm so grateful to her and her loving family!”
“Zeke's stay with Ali was excellent! Ali was quick to respond, easy to schedule with, and above all, super dependable and wonderful with Zeke. She sent us great pics and we never had to worry about Zeke while we were on vacation. He seemed like he had a great vacation, too! Thanks so much, Ali!”
“5 star review! Reba is AWESOME! I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby (Callie) with her. We did a meet-n-great which was really nice, my dog 100% loves being at her house. Loved the photos she sent throughout Callie's stay. Reba will definitely be my 1st choice the next time I need a dog sitter.”
“Our dog enjoyed her stay at Katie’s! Katie was attentive to her needs and her dog got along great with ours. Katie’s home is cozy and Finley enjoyed the large backyard. I hope to be able to rebook with her in the future!”
“Boarding with Karen was a breeze! She is easy going and communicative, I felt comfortable leaving her with my older, anxious dog because I knew she would be patient and kind!”
“They took care of Jake and he came back home happier than he has with any other sitters. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate you watching over Jake while I was away. Y’all are the best!”
“I felt so comfortable with having Moxie stay with Dustin and Maggie’s family. I got plenty of photos of her and she was always happy and safe. I appreciate their care and communication while I was away. I knew my four legged bestie was in the best hands. Thank you for taking such good care of my girl! ?”

“Natalee always does a great job. This time she was observamt and noticed some health issues with our cat. This helped us to promptly respond and get him the care he needed. Thank you Natalee!”
About: I have several years of prior veterinary technician experience, and have worked with and/or pet sit cats of all kinds with many different needs. I have a very nurturing nature and am passionate about providing care for animals of all kind, which led me to pursue a PhD in Biology ( I study animal behavior.) 😊
“I moved to STL and had to travel less than a week later. My cat was unusually a bit skittish in a new place amongst a bunch of boxes. Katie came through for me on very short notice and made me feel comfortable that she had my buddy covered. Thank you Katie!”
“Hayle was awesome while we were away! One of our cats is very skittish which makes feedings difficult when she hides under the couch and refuses to eat when guests come over. Hayle was able to get her to eat every meal which deserves an A+ in my book. She kept in contact about our cats while we were away to provide a little more reassurance as well. She was very nice and attentive at our meet-and-greet too! All in all, I would highly recommend Hayle to come and watch your pets.”
“Eleanor was fantastic. She reassured us with the report cars and photos. We have older cats so more concern about going on vacation. I highly recommend Eleanor as she clearly loves fur babies. Thank-you!!”
“Hope took wonderful care of our two kitties over Spring Break! She sent regular updates with videos of playtime and communicated everything we needed to know so we could just relax & enjoy vacation. She is awesome.”
“Amrutha was so wonderful with my little guy! Her updates and care are just so phenomenal, she put my mind at ease leaving my cat alone for five days! She is incredibly kind and thorough—always going above and beyond with everything—from communication to pet care and everything in between!! Genuinely one of the best!!”
“Our cats L O V E D Sam. They are very social cats but truly it was like we never left based on all the updates Sam provided. Sam was super attentive, gave them so much love and attention, and did all the check ins on time. Sam was so great. We will absolutely be booking Sam again.”
“I booked Allison for a dog walking and visit with my pup Tucker. She was very quick to respond and updated me throughout her visit. Tucker was happy to have a friend and would recommend Allison!”
“This was our first time working with Caroline. What a pleasure! Easy, to the point, great communication and care of Stella. Thank you for giving us the peace of mind she is in good hands. I definitely recommend her!”
“Our boys feel so comfortable with Allison. She checked in on them after a bad tornado came near our place late at night. She handled our long trip like a cakewalk and we could not be more thrilled to have her as our go to cat sitter.”
“She was so kind and thoughtful when caring for our pets! We got plenty of update photos and she reached out of there was even the slightest concern. It was so comforting to know our fur babies were so well loved and cared for while we were away!”

“Isabella was wonderful with our little Rae and we will definitely be recommending her to friends and family in the St Louis area! Our puppy felt right at home with Isa and we were so thankful to have her while we visited St Louis!”
“Ruthie was very accommodating to our hectic schedule while in town and was very patient with our 5 month old pup! We appreciated her kindness and communication. Would definitely highly recommend Ruthie’s services!”
“It was our first time using Rover and we were so happy we went with Viki. We did a meet/greet with her first and my dog was immediately comfortable with her, her dog, and in her home and yard. She was extremely flexible about drop/pick up times which was amazing since we had no clue until the day before what those would be. She also sent us TONS of pictures which made me so happy! You could definitely tell my dog was having a blast and being taken care of very well. I was anxious since it was our first time, but she was very sweet and calming and completely eased my nerves. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Nicole and Tim are the best!!! They have really kind, positive, calm energy and my black lab immediately loved them. They were super responsive and easy to coordinate with, and their setup is perfect. Their yard is great with a nice high fence, and as someone whose dog gets into everything I really appreciated how neat and clean their apt was. Most importantly though, Darcy had a great time and seemed very happy and relaxed. 10/10, highly recommend. We will definitely use again!”
“Ashlie took great care of Rosie! We booked a daycare day with her last minute because our AC went out, and she was so responsive and accommodating! We will definitely be taking Rosie back to her in the future.”
“My husband and I traveled from Indiana to St Louis for a baseball game and booked Marie for a few hours to watch our pug, Grace. Not only was Marie amazing, her kids were fantastic! All of them love dogs and were genuinely delighted to have Grace with them that day! We will absolutely book Marie next time we are in St Louis, thanks with all our hearts for making us feel welcome! If there were more stars than five I'd give them all!”
“Sarah was amazing with my baby Soup! She is super friendly and very responsive. She took care of Soup like her own and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease the whole time. Highly recommend her! 😊”
“Walter and his wife have been so great with my dog! Kenai loves going over there for the day. They have made Kenai a welcome member in their home and even take him out for walks. They’re also understanding of my changing schedule when it comes to early drop offs and different pickup times. I really appreciate them!”
“Jessica watched our Shih Tzu all day while we went to Our son’s law school graduation. It was first time leaving her with sitter all day. Jessica sent lots of pictures and text updates with really eased my mind a lot!! I would definitely book her again when I return to St Louis !”
About: I’ve been up around animals my whole life and have experience with all different types. I’m comfortable with pets at every stage, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m reliable when it comes to sticking to routines, whether that’s specific feeding times, multiple daily walks, or just giving your pet the attention they’re used to. I genuinely love spending time with animals and will treat your pet like my own while you’re away. I work remotely, so I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime. I also go on several walks throughout the day for dogs that need extra exercise or energy release. I’m available for boarding in my home, as well as drop-in visits and check-ins throughout the day depending on your pet’s needs and routine. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run around and explore, and I always make sure pets are supervised and comfortable while in my care. I’m happy to follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, crate routines, or special requests to help your pet feel at home. I can care for pets at my house or make visits to your home throughout the day to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I only recently, in the past couple of years, started taking care of other people’s pups, and I really enjoy it. I treat all pups as if they were my own. I am retired. I play pickleball quite a bit, but I am never gone more than a few hours at a time. My husband works from home, so there is almost always someone around to accompany your pup. My favorite part of the job is showering pups with love. We have mattresses on the floor and if the pups are willing, we love to snuggle with them. I typically walk them 4 to 6 times a day, depending on the wants/needs of the pup and the weather. I will be sure to check in multiple times daily with you and send photos and videos. I am very quick to respond to messages!
“TzuYu took great care of my dog! She gave very frequent updates & photos of my dog going on walks and playing with her and her dog. We already booked the next visit.”
“This was our first experience using a doggie sitter from Rover but definitely won’t be our last. Brian was wonderful! He was extremely flexible in accommodating our schedule and took such great care of Sparky and Crouton! Loved all the pictures he sent!”
“Our pups had such a good time with Hailie and her partner. Hailie allowed our dogs time to warm up to her and her partner and family dog, took them out on potty breaks, gave them treats, and allowed them to snuggle with them on the couch. She also sent me some great pictures at the end of the night. It’s clear they are pet lovers which is so appreciative. We look forward to the next time!”
About: I've spent much of my life living with and caring for dogs--from growing up with dogs throughout childhood, to helping care for dogs as an adult, to having Spencer, my most recent dog. I don't currently have pets of my own, which means visiting dogs get my full attention and don't have to adjust to unfamiliar resident animals. I genuinely miss having a dog around! I work from home and love the idea of giving someone's dog a cozy, low-stress place to stay while their humans are away. I intentionally accept dogs from only one household at a time, so I'm able to get to know their routine, personality, and quirks and make sure they get lots of individual attention. I have a dog door that suits a large dog and a fenced-in backyard in beautiful Southwest Garden, across from The Hill. I'm comfortable following detailed feeding and medication instructions and am happy to care for senior dogs. I'm currently focusing on friendly, reliably housetrained adult small and medium dogs that I can comfortably handle on leash. I prefer a meet-and-greet before a first stay so that both the dog and I can ensure we're comfortable together. And I love sending photos and updates! Getting pictures of Spencer when I traveled always made me happy, so I'm delighted to do the same for you. I work from home Monday through Friday from 9am-6pm, so I’m home much of the day and can easily fit walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, and plenty of attention into my routine. I live on a quiet, tree-lined street with sidewalks and no through traffic, just ten houses from Sublette Park. I love walking the perimeter of the park, so dogs who enjoy walks will have plenty of opportunities to get out and "sniff the puppy newspaper." I’m happy to take dogs for several walks a day depending on their normal routine and energy level. I do leave the house for errands and activities, so dogs should be comfortable relaxing at home alone for a few hours at a time. I have a quiet, dog-friendly home with no resident pets, and I only host dogs from one household at a time. I have a large, fully fenced privacy backyard for supervised play and potty breaks, plus a dog door that can be closed and locked when needed. Dogs are welcome to relax on my large couch, which is always covered with waterproof pet blankets. At night, dogs can sleep in their own crate in my downstairs den, on the couch, or--if they’re well behaved without a crate--on a dog bed in my bedroom. I don’t provide a crate, so owners should bring one if their dog needs it. I prefer to meet new dogs before their first stay so I can learn their routine and make sure I can handle them comfortably and safely. I’m currently best suited for friendly, reliably housetrained adult dogs who aren’t strong pullers, destructive chewers, or determined escape artists.
“This was Cooper’s first time with Lucy and although he was nervous at first that was very short lived! I really appreciated the way Lucy worked to make him feel comfortable before I left. I could tell he was thoroughly enjoying himself in the videos she sent and when we made it back home he barely made it through the door before passing out! Would highly recommend :)”
“Nana was a phenomenal sitter! Her dog got along so well with mine and I could tell she was getting lots of attention and playtime because she’d come home and pass out immediately. And I loved the pictures! Would absolutely book with her again.”
“Judith was amazing and communicated well throughout the entire process. We felt our dog was in great hands with her and know he was super spoiled. She went above and beyond and sent us daily photo and text updates. We will definitely be booking with Judith again in the future! Highly recommend.”

“Janina took excellent care of my pup. She was communicative, prompt, and even helped her learn to walk better on a leash! She provided sweet updates that helped me feel at ease.”
About: Over the past 20 years I’ve owned and cared for dogs (both puppies and elderly), cats, reptiles, rodents, and invertebrates. I’ve rescued a pup and trained a couple high energy dogs, one with a great deal of anxiety and fear aggression.I have experience cat sitting for various out of town owners over the years I currently go to school part time so my schedule is pretty flexible right now. I have a one year old pup who is very active and would love to make some new friends if the opportunity arises. I love to stay active, spend time outdoors, and meet new animal friends. Providing pet care is a job I was made for. Whether in my own home, or in a clients home, I can guarantee that your pet will get the care they are accustomed to. I am a detail oriented mother myself and understand the value of knowing your instructions will be followed and your babies will be safe.
About: Growing up, there was never a time when there wasn’t a dog in the house, and I have been a cat mom for going on five years, so I am very understanding of the care that comes with each animal. Additionally, I have experience with puppies/kittens all the way to senior pets and know that each require personalized care (and I have no problem giving it). As an added bonus, I live with my partner, who also is a dog dad and everyday he gives his dog daily vitamins to stay happy and healthy. Plus he used to work at a wild life rehabilitation center, so he is very familiar with how to care for all animals, regardless of species, age or health. I work a hybrid schedule and currently have every other Friday off so I have plenty of time to care for your best friend. My work also allows employees to bring their dogs to work, if it’s something you’re comfortable with, I would love to show off your doggo! I am available for drop off/pickup anytime on weekends and after 5pm on weekdays. Plus my partner is a graduate student, so he comes home throughout the day to care for his own dog. I have a fenced in yard, so there are no worries when it comes to potty or play. Plus, I live with a very playful dog who can’t wait to spend time with your doggo! I also have a cat who is very tolerant of dogs (she probably won’t play, but doesn’t mind their presence). She is also very comfortable around other cats, she’s a tad shy so another playmate will probably do her some good!
“Sam was excellent and exceeded our expectations when caring for our golden retriever, Maggie! Loved the updates, pictures and videos! 10/10, would hire again in a heartbeat.”
“Danielle was a gem. She was efficient, timely, flexible and very, very good with the dogs. This is the first time that i've USEDrover and I am one. My experience was outstanding and I thank Danielle for being there for me when I needed it the most. If you want a responsible individual that you feel comfortable with her and your animals... Daniel is your girl?”
About: I’ve been around both cats and dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. Growing up with pets taught me how important it is to provide them with attention, patience, and consistent care. Whether your pet is playful and social or prefers a quieter approach, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I’ll treat your cat or dog with the same care and affection I’d give my own pets. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural and enjoyable part of my daily routine, especially as a teacher with summers off. I love spending my extra time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Being around animals is something I truly enjoy, and I appreciate the chance to fill my days with walks, visits, playtime, and companionship. I’m reliable, attentive, and excited to give each pet the care and attention they deserve I currently care for my two cats at home, so I’m very comfortable with daily cat care routines like feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and recognizing their individual personalities and needs. In addition, I often help care for my parents’ dogs when needed, so I also have experience with feeding, walking, and general dog care. This mix of hands-on experience has made me confident and attentive with both cats and dogs, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: Hello STL pet parents! I am new to Rover but I've taken care of all ages, sizes, and various breeds of dogs since I was young, ranging from Chihuahuas to 110 lb Bouviers. My husband (former dog trainer) and I are the proud dog parents of two friendly rescue chihuahua mixes and we take them everywhere with us when we can and consider them to be our family. We have also had the privilege of caring for a rescue pittie who was skittish around other dogs at first, and a pug lab mix who never met a stranger. I nursed one of my current rescues through heartworm treatment after first adopting her and saw our pug lab mix through chemo when she was diagnosed with lymphoma. I take the care and love of dogs very seriously and believe we owe them the utmost respect. It would be my honor to apply that same philosophy of care and compassion (and fun!) with your beloved family member. I can be available any day of the week, though I prefer notice for weekends. Overall however I can be flexible! If the service is a walk I would prefer that to take place before 6:30 p.m. My yard is fenced in with a privacy fence and if I let dogs into the yard I am always out there with them the entire time. I have two small dogs who are friendly and enjoy gentle playing with others. I'm also comfortable visiting in your home or taking your doggo out on an adventure.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and recently adopted a cat. I have extensive experience with multiple pet households. I am currently a law student at WashU so I have a very flexible schedule I am a third year law student at WashU Law. I have a very flexible schedule as I only have a few classes. I am often available during the day and almost always available at nights and weekends. I have experience with dogs and cats. I love running so I am willing to run your dog if they need to burn off excess energy. I also love just sitting with your pets and petting them.
“Annamaria has been great! Charlie seems to really like her, and she’s been able to get him out of the house every visit so far - he can sometimes be a bit stubborn and refuse to get up lol. I’m very happy with the service so far, and definitely plan to continue having her work with Charlie.”
“Hope is so great. She cared for my last pup when her health was failing, showing true kindness, compassion, and care. And she has been wonderful with Kevin, a good and patient teacher to an energetic puppy. I trust and strongly recommend her.”
“Allison has been dropping in and taking our dog on walks for a few months now and she has been wonderful! She is very prompt, reliable, and communicates well. We would highly recommend!”
About: I am recently retired and have owned and cared for dogs for the last 30 years. I am a reliable, trustworthy dog walker/ visitor who will show love and affection to your dog. I currently own 2 dogs and have had dogs from puppy age up to 16 years old. I would love to take your dog for a walk or just come by and say hi !! I am recently retired so I have a flexible daytime schedule during the week. I can make those long days at home alone a better experience for your dog with a nice walk in your neighborhood and personalized attention at home, Having two dogs of my own, I am capable with multiple dog families. I will also give your dogs the extra attention they need before and after the walk.
About: I have been taking care of my own animals my whole life, and have sat for other people on numerous occasions. I have also assisted with much of the care and feeding of a dog and several cats over the years. I live in South St. Louis City, and I can only really work there or in areas near there, but if you live close to me you will never be without the help you need. I can stay in your house if you'd like me to, but I can't keep other people's pets in my house because I have a very nervous and shy cat who would be made uncomfortable by this and a crazy dog who might scare your pets. I repeat: I can stay in your house or I can just pop in and out to take care of your pets, but I cannot have outside animals stay in my home. I also walk dogs. The rates for that might be a little bit different, but I assure you they will still be affordable. I have to say though that I cannot walk for an extended period in thunderstorms or freezing/icey temperatures. That's for my safety as well as your dog's. I will be your pet's new best friend and your asset when you are in a pinch or are going somewhere and can't take care of them. I have loved animals since I was a child, and I rarely find one with which I don't get along. I don't have a job which will take me out of town frequently, so I can provide my services as long as they are needed. I look forward to meeting you and your adorable animal friends! I have availability on weekdays as well as weekends Message me and we can talk about scheduling a time for me to walk your dog I will make sure the animal gets whatever care they need I am not a vet though, so if your animal is sickly and/or old then I don't know how well I can care for them
About: Ever since I can remember, I have always been around and loved animals. I am comfortable with all animals, bigger, small, and comfortable with care, feeding, and medication if necessary. I just moved to the area and am very flexible and fitting in pet care for your pet with a very flexible schedule, I am open and available for all evenings, weekends and holidays and can do drop in walking with flexibility during the day and in the morning. I offer drop in care at your home and I am open to all aspects of caring for your pet and their needs above and beyond just walking
“Caroline was super helpful and flexible as we rolled into town to check out the Arch and needed a dog walker/sitter for our Goober. She had great communication and was excellent to work with!”
“Katie was so good with our a rowdy 1 yr old- I really appreciated her help with Stella! This was my first time using Rover and I am so glad I did! Stella ended up napping after her walk and play time with Katie so I could work late without a dog in my lap :) Thank you Katie!!”
About: I love dogs and cats and have some extra time so I couldn’t think of a better way to fill it. I have previous experience working as a dog walker. I’ve had dogs and cats as pets and feel comfortable with all sizes. I’m always the go to dog sitter for my friends and I really enjoy it. I think it’s really fun to get to know others dog personalities. I have my own transportation and am reliable. I really value good communication and will strive to be as available as I can. I’m super over protective of my pets and will definetly extend that with yours so you can feel comfortable when leaving your met with me. I’ve never met a dog I didn’t get along with! My schedule is lighter this year at work so I can be available evenings, nights and weekends mostly. Can also accommodate early mornings if needed. I have experience with dogs in crates and am comfortable using different ones. I take safety very seriously and would treat your pet as my own.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. My first word was my neighbor’s dog’s name, Ashley! I have been a trusted dog, cat, lizard, and fish sitter for 10 years, and would love to continue! I have experience with elderly and young dogs, and administering medication. I recently got a full time position and am looking for something to do on the side. I am punctual, and patient. I know how it feels to love a pet with your whole heart (even if that pet wasn't mine). I have weekends free, and am free for walks around lunch and in the evening on Mondays and Wednesdays. I have never met a dog I didn’t love and I would love to meet yours! I’m currently working full time but work from home Monday and Friday. Right down the street from Tower Grove Park, where it’s sniff heaven! I love to go for walks and can fit them in the morning, evening and around noon. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but I’m more than happy to go on long walks and training/sniff activities to work through some energy and add some mental stimulation!
About: I grew up around dogs and have been a 2x cat mom for 5 years. I frequently pet sit for friends. I’ll treat your pets like my own! I work a full time job but I do have a lot of free time. I work 2-10:30pm with Fridays and Saturdays completely available . I’m very respectful of everyone’s personal spaces and am more than happy to tidy up after pets. As I have 2 cats of my own, I am not offering pet sitting in my own home.
About: ***Constant care pets will be an extra fee*** Constant care is care in which we cannot leave your pet alone for more than 3 hours. Meet and greets are free unless you need more than one before the stay, then the first meet and greet is free. My expertise is with older dogs, pets with disabilities (such as dementia or seizures), and pets that need medications. I'm also experienced in multi-pet homes where one or more pets are seniors/special needs and other pets are high energy or puppies/kittens. I have experience caring for pets who are recovering from operations as well. If your pet does need Constant care, we can negotiate a price that works for you. I've always had pets. I have always had cats, dogs, guinnea pigs, or ferrets. I'm versed in many kinds of animals and am happy to care additional small animals if needed. Short notice is ok as long as there are at least 2 days between the time I'm asked and the time of the stay so that there's time for a meet and greet. For repeat customers, I accept even same-day requests. I work 8 hours, 4 days a week. Since we do petsitting together, if there is a need for constant care, one of us will always be present in the home with your pet. Safety is my #1 priority when caring for your pets. I make sure to watch pets attentively on walks and in the yard to ensure maximum safety. My services include grabbing mail and packages, watering plants, giving medications as instructed, daily walks as instructed, basic cleaning up after myself and your pets, daily updates and pictures, and following your regular schedule as closely as possible to ensure as seamless a change as possible while you get to experience a worry-free time away.

“I have had wonderful experiences with Paula as my sitter for my 75lb boy, Jagger. She is very responsive with updates while I'm away. It has been a true comfort having someone so caring watch him while I'm away. I highly recommend her.”
“Jenna was super easy to communicate with and they took great care of our dog! Mo had the best time with them. We are super grateful they were willing to watch our very energetic dog :)”
“I'm very grateful Lucy was available this weekend. Maggie seemed to have had a great time and was very happy when she got home. Lucy's pick-up and drop-off was very punctual and she was available for an early drop-off when I returned home early in the day. Layla, Lucy's dog, seems to be a great playmate for Maggie. Got pictures of them playing and resting together every day. Will book again!”
“Sarah took great care of our golden retriever, Phoenix, while we took a brief vacation. He fit in well with her dog, and we got many great pictures from Sarah to update us while we were away. We were super comfortable with our dog's stay even though we had never left him with anyone before. I heartily recommend Sarah for you and your dog.”
“Sarah and the service she offered was awesome! Sarah made sure to communicate, send daily photos, and asked questions to better serve my fur baby 🐶❤️ If needed, I will definitely book Sarah again!”
“Our pup absolutely loved every minute staying with Shaina! Each photo update was adorable and she was incredibly kind and flexible when our travel plans shifted which was an added bonus. We can’t wait to book with her again!!”
“Guinness had such a good time at Sidney's house with her dog. He was exhausted and a little sad to leave them. She sent videos and pictures so I could see what Guinness was up to. Ill definitely be using her again!”
“Ben took excellent care of my dog, Willa, during her four-night stay at his home. From the moment she arrived, she was instantly comfortable with him. He sent daily photo updates, showing Willa happy, relaxed, and enjoying her time. I especially appreciated that he allowed her on the furniture and even let her sleep in his bed, which made her feel right at home. Beyond being a great sitter, Ben is super chill and easy to get along with, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. It’s clear he truly cares for the dogs he watches, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again!”
“Julie was nice and helpful, had no issues at all, Jacob was very relaxed when i picked him up, which is a great indicator that he was relaxed with julie”
“Absolutely amazing experience! I needed a last-minute place for my Husky for an extended trip, and Marie was everything my little guy needed and more. She sent photos daily and made the entire process simple and easy. I'm so grateful to her and her loving family!”
“Zeke's stay with Ali was excellent! Ali was quick to respond, easy to schedule with, and above all, super dependable and wonderful with Zeke. She sent us great pics and we never had to worry about Zeke while we were on vacation. He seemed like he had a great vacation, too! Thanks so much, Ali!”
“Our dog enjoyed her stay at Katie’s! Katie was attentive to her needs and her dog got along great with ours. Katie’s home is cozy and Finley enjoyed the large backyard. I hope to be able to rebook with her in the future!”
“Boarding with Karen was a breeze! She is easy going and communicative, I felt comfortable leaving her with my older, anxious dog because I knew she would be patient and kind!”
“They took care of Jake and he came back home happier than he has with any other sitters. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate you watching over Jake while I was away. Y’all are the best!”
“Blake was very responsive and he’s such a great guy. I feel fortunate we found him on short notice to take care of our Husky. We will definitely be using his services again.”
“Elizabeth took such great care of Finley! She wrapped her up in a blanket when she noticed Finley getting scared of a thunderstorm. Her dog Lorax was also so sweet. They have a lovely home with a nice backyard. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Adolfo was great. Obviously I am a little apprehensive about leaving my dog at a place for a week but Adolfo knows what he is doing. My dog got to socialize and he handled the pack with ease. Thank you so much for taking him in.”
“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.”
