“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”
“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!”
“Freckles was well taken care of and we had no worries leaving him with Dave. We received pictures and updates daily and will definitely use Dave going forward when we need a sitter!”
“Aurora had a great time in Gloria’s house! The attention to detail and daily updates through text and pictures left us really at ease and comfortable with the level of care. Highly recommend and would definitely contact her again!”
“Sherry was so great with my dog and so easy to work with! She sent a bunch of cute dog pics and updates and it was clear Winnie was safe and had fun while I was gone. Thank you so much!”
“Samantha was terrific!! With relatively little notice she's was able to watch our baby girl Lizzie. We got pictures of her playing and having a great stay while on our vacation. Would not hesitate to have her take care of our fur baby again.”
“I’m so thankful that I found Lynn & her husband to care for my little doggie while I was out of town. I greatly appreciate that they took the time to meet with me and Latte ahead of his stay. Lynn introduced her sweet doggies, Nellie & Bentley, to him and then spent about an hour letting the pups mingle as we talked about Latte. Lynn was very responsive to communication, she was flexible and kept me updated daily with texts & pictures of Latte. He was treated like a member of their family… well loved & cared for. I will definitely be leaving Latte with Lynn in the future!”
“I can't say enough about Sheila. She took on my little Lily dog who not only has Heart Disease and Trachea Collapse Disorder, but also has separation anxiety. Yet she and Dave gave Lil the best of care, with the greatest of patience. I could tell Lily felt loved. I will bring Lily back to Sheila, without reservations. Thank you sooo much for caring for my senior doggie.”
“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.”
“Shane was awesome! He kept us updated the entire time with pictures and videos. He has a really nice yard that Leo LOVED. I never seen him so happy. 100% worth the drive. He really care for Leo. He even brought him out to us and gave Leo goodbye kisses!”
“Phoenix had a great time! She promptly fell asleep as soon as she got into the car so we know she played hard! Thanks to Beth and family for taking good care of her while we were gone.”
“Many thanks to Erica for her good work. She even dropped my dog off at our regular dog sitter. Erica provided coverage while our regular sitter who was out of town. I had to have surgery during this time and Erica really made things go smoothly.”
“Amazing cat sitter! Qiyun/Kiki was so accommodating when we had to book our cat Lucy on very short notice. She took great care of her, sending regular pictures and updates on how she was doing. I would rate her 100 stars if I could ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Definitely have your kitty stay here!”
“Melissa and family kept us constantly updated with our pup during her stay and were incredibly understanding when our flight was delayed and pivoted to doing a drop off. We cannot thank them enough for their care of her.”
“Ashley was great for our dogs! We were in a pinch and needed someone within a few days to watch them for the weekend and Ashley was very responsive and cooperative. The dogs loved their stay at her place and were well taken care of! Ashley's communication was great with how the dogs were doing as well. Would definitely recommend!”

“Amanda was amazing! She did drop by visits for my 2 cats, one of which is very shy and the other is sometimes finicky with anyone who isn’t me. She was very patient with both of them and sent status updates and pictures which had the perfect amount of detail to let me know how they were doing while on vacation. She was also very responsive to messages and I never felt like I was waiting on her reply. She was well informed on taking care of animals and shows a great passion for animals as well! On top of that she went above and beyond what I needed her to do and also washed their water fountain and food bowls which I never even mentioned because I didn’t need her to do that! All in all, my cats are happy and healthy and she saved me from a couple extra chores I would’ve had to do upon returning home!”
“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.”
“Tracy was amazing. She was so good with our kitties. She took lots of photos and gave us great peace of mind leaving our kitties under her care! We will 100% be booking with her again.”
About: I have always loved cats. They have always been in my house and in my opinion super easy. They’re snuggly and independent. Cats are something else because they can have some much personality and I’m just a cat person.
“Barbara was fantastic! She was incredibly reliable and took great care of Murphy while we were out of town. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Murphy was safe, happy, and well cared for. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter.”
“I had to leave a very skittish cat home while I went away for almost a week, and Tiana did a great job on her visits. I've never tried Rover before now, and I was surprised by how much she was trying to comfort my lil guy while I was gone. I would definitely book her again next time I need a drop-in sitter!”
“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.”
“Diane is a great sitter and our two boys love it when she stops by. Even our most shy kitty, who doesn't like outsode people, loves to play and even accepts pets sometimes.”
About: I have dog sit for my aunt for a couple of years now and she says I do an amazing job and will recommend to others. I work Monday through Saturday but I have time I. The evening and in the morning to make sure they are taken care of. I know my schedule is a little Chaotic. I will do what is needed for that animal in that clients home. I will make sure they stay clean and safe and have plenty of playtime and that they trust me
“Billie was fantastic! Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process. She reached out regularly and sent daily pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing everything was going well. Additionally, she kept me informed about any packages that arrived. Billie also coordinated seamlessly with the next house and pet sitter, ensuring a smooth transition. The next sitter said the house was clean and my cat was well taken care of. I highly recommend her services!”
“Brad was very responsive to a last minute request to let my dogs out when I couldn’t get back home in time to feed them. He fed them and let them out and hung out with them for awhile.”
About: I have had pets all my life. Cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, hampsters.. the list goes on. I was in Human healthcare and found its not much different. I can help with your pet care needs. My work schedule can be flexible so I can adjust it to fit most pet needs so you can plan that vacation free from worry. I have a fenced in area and a designated space in my house I call the “pet room” . My house resembles someone who has a 2 yr old but instead of kid toys and beds it’s dog and cat toys.

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 bring years of hands-on experience in animal care, including working as a behavior modification dog trainer and spending many years in veterinary medicine. This background allows me to understand not only canine behavior, but also health, safety, and early signs of medical concerns. I’m highly enthusiastic about canine fitness and nutrition, and I tailor care to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and routine. Whether your dog needs structured exercise, calm, attentive care, I provide a safe, knowledgeable, and compassionate experience. Your pet’s well-being—both physical and mental—is always my top priority. I’m home full-time, so boarded dogs receive constant supervision, structure, and individualized care. My days are centered around caring for dogs, which allows me to safely manage multiple boarding dogs with different needs, energy levels, and routines. Each dog receives a balanced routine of exercise, enrichment, and rest in a calm, structured environment. I closely monitor behavior, maintain safe group dynamics, and provide plenty of one-on-one attention to ensure every dog feels secure and comfortable during their stay. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I maintain a structured, calm household designed to meet the needs of a wide range of dogs. I have multiple separate rooms available for dogs who do not do well with other animals, allowing them to relax comfortably without stress. For dogs who enjoy social time, there is plenty of space for safe interaction and movement. I require dogs to be crate trained overnight or reliably potty trained with an established routine, which helps ensure safety, cleanliness, and consistency for everyone in my care. My home includes a secure, fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and play. While structure is an important part of my household, dogs also enjoy playtime, enrichment, and appropriate freedom based on their individual needs and comfort level. With my experience and environment, I provide a safe, attentive, and well-managed space where dogs can feel secure and well cared for.
“Alvin goes to Beth’s 4-5 days a week. It’s been a few rough weeks for Alvin. He had surgery 10/1 and had a cone/collar for 12 days. She was great with keeping him from scratching but still be playful. He learned how to scoop the ball with the cone! We absolutely love the care he receives with Beth and her family!”
“My husband and I have never gone anywhere without our precious Molly. We have our son’s destination wedding to attend this month. We have both agonized over leaving Molly behind. A kennel or doggy day care was definitely out of the question. I had heard of Rover so we checked it out. Karissa is a Godsend. Her yard is perfect, she is affectionate and I know in my heart Molly will be exceptionally well cared for. We dropped Molly off this week for a trial day before leaving her a whole week. Karissa kept us updated with pictures and notes throughout the stay. Finding Karissa has eased our anxiety about leaving Molly. I highly recommend checking with Karissa if you are looking for a passionate, reliable sitter.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied upon me to watch their dogs on many occasions. I work during the day, and able to watch dogs 3pm and after every day during the week and available during the weekends as well. I have a fenced in yard so we can play and hangout inside the house or outside with comfort. Always a good time with me
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.
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and backgrounds. I grew up with large-breed dogs and have loved dogs my entire life. When I moved out on my own, adopting a dog was one of the first things I did! I currently have three resident dogs, all of whom I trained myself. Two of the three have severe separation anxiety, so I'm quite well-versed in some of the behavioral traits that come along with that. For the past two years, I've also been actively involved in the dog rescue world by fostering. I've fostered 12 dogs ranging from young puppies who needed to learn the basics to adult dogs who came with more challenging behavioral needs such as resource guarding. These experiences have taught me to be patient, observant, and adaptable with every dog I care for. I understand that not every dog is going to walk into a new environment perfectly behaved, and I genuinely enjoy meeting them where they are and helping them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a perfectly behaved adult, or somewhere in between, I'll treat them like one of my own. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. My resident dogs still rule my daily routine. Your pup will get plenty of attention throughout the day/night and can have potty breaks as consistently as needed. I've house trained seven puppies over the past two years, so I'm very used to frequent potty breaks if that's something your pup needs. Otherwise, every 2-4 hours is pretty consistent with the routine my resident dogs are on. I've fostered dogs with a variety of different needs and have always worked it into my schedule. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home, so I'm happy to adapt my approach to each dog's individual needs and your preferences as a pet parent. I do have three resident dogs in my home, all of whom are extremely dog friendly. Ideally, dogs staying in my home will be comfortable around other dogs, but I understand that not every dog wants or needs constant interaction. I have a separate guest room that I've previously used for foster dogs who needed some quiet time or a slower introduction. If your pup needs their own space, they can have a dedicated area away from my resident dogs while still having plenty of company - I work from home, and the guest room also serves as my home office. I have an unfenced yard, so dogs are always taken outside on a leash. I also have a long line that allows fogs more freedom to sniff, explore, and play while remaining safely contained. Outdoor time is always supervised, whether your dog is staying with me or I'm caring for them in your home. When caring for a dog in your home, I'll follow your instructions and do my best to maintain your pup's normal routine, including feeding, medication, walks, potty breaks, and any other care they're accustomed to. My priority is always safety, communication, and making sure your pup feels comfortable and well cared for while you're away. I've had people care for my own dogs while I've been away, and I've experienced both sides of the spectrum - sitters who went above and beyond and sitters who left me wishing I'd been there myself. I know how important it is to maintain a dog's routine and give them the same care and attention they're used to. My own dogs are basically my children, so I know exactly what level of care I'd want for them. That's the same standard I'll bring to caring for yours!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for [40+], from energetic puppies and curious kittens to senior pets who just want a comfy cuddle and a slow walk. Growing up with dogs and cats taught me how important it is to give each animal the patience, love, and attention they deserve. I have experience with: • Daily walks, playtime, and exercise for high-energy dogs 🐕 • Administering medications (oral and topical) when needed 💊 • Providing gentle care and comfort for senior pets ❤️ • Keeping feeding schedules consistent and clean-up stress-free 🐾 Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or just quiet company, I always treat pets like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a retired law enforcement female, pet care doesn’t feel like a task—it’s something I truly enjoy and look forward to every day. Animals make my heart smile. 😊 When pets stay in my home - I do have two beagle pups. Huckleberry and Callie-Lilly. I will make sure your fur baby feels comfortable and safe by keeping to their usual routines—regular walks, feeding schedules, and plenty of playtime. I provide cozy spaces for rest, lots of attention, and supervision so they always feel at ease. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect as my own. I follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, administering medications, or keeping up with exercise. I also love spending quality time with pets, giving them affection, play, and companionship so they don’t feel lonely while you’re away. No matter where I’m caring for them, I focus on creating a calm, happy environment where pets feel loved, safe, and cared for.
“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”
About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was young. When I got older and moved out on my own, I ended up getting cats too. I currently have 2 cats that live with me, one was adopted and one was a stray kitten that I found in a thunderstorm. I’ve worked at a veterinary hospital doing tasks like feeding animals, administering medication, cleaning up after them, bathing them, etc. I have also worked at a couple of dog boarding shops. So, I can handle a lot of animals at once. I’m quick on my feet, especially when animals are getting too rough with one another. This happened a lot at the doggy daycares I worked at. But I know how to break up dog fights without hurting the pups in the process because of my experience there. I have been pet sitting independently for about 5 years, and I prefer it to being in a shop. I can have a closer relationship with the pets I watch this way. I’ve raised my own dogs and cats, so I know how to take care of them. I also know the certain behaviors to look out for, whether an animal is sick or not acting normal in general. I’m very attentive and your animals will be very safe in my hands. My passion is taking care of animals. I do this full time and I love every minute of it. My schedule is always open for your pets! I live on about 7 acres of property. The yard is not fenced, but I can take pups out on a leash. I do have 2 cats with me full-time but they’re very friendly. I also live in a split house, so I could separate them if needed. I’m also very used to going to people’s houses to watch their pets. I work best when there is a written list of what you need done. That way, I can check it off as I go. But I’m very thorough! I’ll get everything done and then some.
“Erica was available with such short notice! Her availability is amazing and she works with my crazy work schedule always. I can leave my Bella knowing that she will he safe and well taken care of! She always comes home happy and tired ☺️”
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: I grew up with cats and dogs and have years of real life experience understanding their needs.

About: I have been a professional dog trainer (AKC) and CGC certified trainer for many many years (10+ years). I have worked with many rescues in LA and PHX and continue to have clients back in those cities I still service (my clients love me). I have been watching animals for a long time and recently opening up my home to more clients. I have a large dog and small dog in my home as well as a very sleepy old cat. If your dog needs to be the only dog I can make arrangements for my dogs to be gone at grandparents :) The yard is fenced and dogs are only allowed out with supervision so they are always with me...I want to have fun and bond with your dog and ensure their safety and fun! I am able to do checkins, hikes, walks and obviously cuddles. I am responsible and will care for your pet as much as you do. I am happy to continue what rules/instructions you have for your dog and we will have a great time together. I will follow the rules you have for your dog and send tons of pics and updates! I have references and plenty of experience in all shapes sizes and breeds of dogs! I work remote so usually home. I occasionally travel for work to LA and Phx for clients but taking on new clients here in STL! When I am gone dogs on work related pet visits, the dogs are my home are separated into rooms by baby gates and monitored thru a camera. I am usually gone no longer than 2 hours. I care after your pet the same way you would, with love care and full of safety. I have long time clients that refuse to let me go because of not only the care I give but I think also the cuddles and pics :)

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. 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 have had dogs my whole life, and have also dog sat for family friends many times. I love animals and I’d be happy to help care for yours!

About: I've had pets in my family since I was a kid, and I have taken care of foster animals, family pets and friends pets throughout adulthood. I have taken care of pets who have medication needs and environment needs (scared of thunder and such.) I work for myself, so I am able to work around my work hours accordingly and easily to provide the care that is needed for my clients. My care is adaptive to each pet family's needs and home. I am an observant person and pay attention to the details while caring for pets. I cannot take on daycare or boarding services right now, but I am more than happy to take dogs for walks, care for cats, and pet sit while you're away.

“This was only our first meeting with Brad. We booked him for 1 hour prior to a planned pet sitting stayover to meet us and our loving boy Jackson. To familiarize Brad with Jackson's routine, we wanted him to join us while we took Jackson on his daily walk. Brad was attentive and asked thorough questions about Jackson's care. They got along right away. We feel more comfortable having scheduled a longer initial meet. It gave us more peace of mind in knowing that the care and well being of our sweet baby and the care and regard for our home will be in good hands!”
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.

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.
“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’ve grown up around big and small dogs all my life. I have also been dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors and love to take my German shepherd on runs. I live at home right now and am taking one class online and work-part time so I will have lots of time to play with your pets and snuggle them. I make sure the animal will stay within boundaries if they have to stay in a fence and will make sure that they get all meds needed or food on time.
About: Hi! I’m Gaby, a full-time professional pet sitter and lifelong animal lover. Caring for animals isn’t a side job for me, it’s full time job and passion! One of the biggest benefits of booking with me is that I do this full-time, which means your pets receive far more attention, companionship, and supervision than they would with sitters who work traditional 9–5 jobs or are in and out all day. Your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches of the day, and their comfort, safety, and routine will always be my top priority. I have professional experience working in daycare and boarding environments, including Kennelwood Animal Resort and Y Bark Alone. Through that experience, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. I’m comfortable administering medications (both oral and injections), handling puppies, seniors, and special-needs pets, and recognizing signs that a pet may be stressed, anxious, or unwell. When I watch your babies, they aren’t just another booking. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special instructions so they can feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive the individualized care they deserve. You’ll receive tons of pupdates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in caring hands. My goal is to become the sitter you can rely on whenever you need help, a trusted person who treats your pets like family and provides the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own! I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies!🐶🐾 Rover is my full time job at the moment so my schedule is very open to give your pet the proper time and attention they deserve. How I care for your fur baby is completely contingent on the owner. I follow all guidelines they have set in place whatever those may be. But you can trust they are always in the best of hands.
About: Ive been an emergency vet tech and helping hand for 6+ years. Ive had animals my entire life & adore them so much I made a living off keeping them safe & healthy. Your loved ones will be loved in my home & heart. I work long hours but that means I have more days off to help you out. 3 days out if the week i have off & can accommodate your oets here in my home or stop by your house for potty breaks/walks. My yard is fenced in, my animals are very friendly, my teenage son loves animals & hopes to follow in mom's footsteps in vet med.
About: I've lived with dogs my entire life and have never met a dog I can't connect with. I love dogs of all sizes and behaviors; I have experience counseling groups of kids at summer camp, so I have no trouble managing dogs in a group or with rowdy tendencies. I truly love all dogs and would love to meet yours! I am currently working part-time in St. Louis on the weekends, so I am available weekdays at any time. I have access to a car and the ability to be flexible with timing and distance as well, just contact me! I can work with any number and any kind of dog! I grew up with a couple dogs of different sizes and I currently live with 2 little ones, so I am comfortable handling any canine situation! This means I am more than happy to take on any responsibility/task requested, such as administering medication, engaging in frequent or constant activity, intently monitoring an animal for an extended period of time, etc. beyond, of course, walking & relieving your best friend(s)! I will always provide dilligent and careful care of both your pets and your home.
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a kid, I still remember all their names. I have walked bathed and I know how to play with the dogs. I’m Now a current college student at maryville University. I’m majoring marketing! I’m a huge animal lover. I will give you pictures and updates on you furry friends if you would like. I pet sitted all four year of high school for one of my Lacrosse coaches. I’ve worked with a variety of dogs and know how to care for all sorts of fur babies!!! I can do weekends just do to my class load on the weekdays, I also can do let outs during the week for your furry friends I can’t bring your pet back to my home so house sitting only. I will make sure your pet is comfortable with me. I would prefer to do a visit before I start to get to know the dog and their routine
About: Hi! I’m Landree, and caring for animals has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I started training horses at 10 years old, began working with exotic animals at 16, attended my first professional dog training course in 2021, and completed another in 2022. My goal is to create a place where every dog feels like they’re on vacation while you’re away. I live in St. James, Missouri, on 7 beautiful acres with a secure fenced yard for safe play and plenty of open fields for supervised walks and exercise. Our property also has a large pond. While it isn’t fenced, dogs are never allowed near it without direct supervision, and if you’d rather your pup avoid the pond completely, I’m happy to accommodate that. I work from home, so your dog will receive lots of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets are welcome to relax and roam freely in the house while I’m home. If I ever need to step out for errands, they’ll stay safely in a dog-proof room or a crate, depending on what they’re most comfortable with and what you prefer. I also have both stairs and a ramp leading into the house to help accommodate senior dogs and those with mobility needs. For added convenience, I offer transportation to and from your home for boarding clients. I’m currently working toward opening my dream pet resort, where dogs can enjoy a fun, enriching, and safe stay every time they visit. Until then, I’m excited to welcome your furry family member into my home and care for them as if they were my own. Caring for dogs is my full-time job, not a side hobby, so your pet’s care is my top priority throughout the day. My daily routine is built around providing frequent potty breaks, supervised outdoor play, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one attention. During the summer, we enjoy the cooler parts of the day outside and spend the hottest hours relaxing indoors in the air conditioning before heading back out for more fun in the evening. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to follow your dog’s normal feeding times, medication schedule, exercise needs, and preferred routine. Whether your pup is full of energy and loves to play or prefers a quieter day filled with naps and cuddles, I’ll tailor their stay to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. Because pet care is my full-time profession, your dog won’t simply be checked on throughout the day—they’ll receive consistent supervision, personalized care, and the love and attention they deserve. When your pet stays with me, they become part of the family. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and individual needs so I can provide care that’s as close to home as possible. Whether your dog is playful and energetic, shy and reserved, or a senior who prefers a slower pace, I’ll adjust their day to keep them happy and comfortable. Dogs receive frequent potty breaks, supervised outdoor play, enrichment activities, plenty of fresh water, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. They are welcome to relax inside the house with me, and during the hottest parts of the day we cool off indoors in the air conditioning. If I ever need to leave for a short time, dogs are safely housed in a dog-proof room or a crate based on your preference and what your dog is most comfortable with. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs. Safety is always my highest priority, and every outdoor activity is supervised to ensure your dog has a fun, safe, and stress-free stay.

“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”
“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!”
“Freckles was well taken care of and we had no worries leaving him with Dave. We received pictures and updates daily and will definitely use Dave going forward when we need a sitter!”
“Samantha was terrific!! With relatively little notice she's was able to watch our baby girl Lizzie. We got pictures of her playing and having a great stay while on our vacation. Would not hesitate to have her take care of our fur baby again.”
“I can't say enough about Sheila. She took on my little Lily dog who not only has Heart Disease and Trachea Collapse Disorder, but also has separation anxiety. Yet she and Dave gave Lil the best of care, with the greatest of patience. I could tell Lily felt loved. I will bring Lily back to Sheila, without reservations. Thank you sooo much for caring for my senior doggie.”
“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.”
“Shane was awesome! He kept us updated the entire time with pictures and videos. He has a really nice yard that Leo LOVED. I never seen him so happy. 100% worth the drive. He really care for Leo. He even brought him out to us and gave Leo goodbye kisses!”
“Phoenix had a great time! She promptly fell asleep as soon as she got into the car so we know she played hard! Thanks to Beth and family for taking good care of her while we were gone.”
“Many thanks to Erica for her good work. She even dropped my dog off at our regular dog sitter. Erica provided coverage while our regular sitter who was out of town. I had to have surgery during this time and Erica really made things go smoothly.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Emily! ❤️ From the very beginning, I could tell that she genuinely cares about both your baby and her own babies. She took the time to do a meet-and-greet first and carefully introduced Soup to each of her dogs, which made me feel so comfortable leaving him with her. Emily’s dogs are all such sweet babies and very well behaved. 🥰 Soup absolutely LOVED being with them! From all the pictures and updates Emily sent us, we could tell he was having a blast. Honestly, I think he was living his best life there 😂❤️ He had so much fun playing and spending time with his new friends. What I appreciate most about Emily is that she doesn’t just “watch” your dog — she genuinely cares for them like one of her own. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, and seeing how happy and comfortable Soup was gave us so much peace of mind. Emily and her babies were incredibly sweet and loving toward him. We are so happy we found Emily and her sweet babies. ❤️ I would trust her with Soup again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely love and care for their baby. Thank you so much, Emily, for taking such amazing care of Soup and giving him the best little vacation! 🐶🐾❤️”
“Elizabeth was great! She sent super cute pics to keep me updated on how Bella was doing during her stay. When I came to pick up I could immediately tell how calm and happy my dog was- it was like she spent the weekend at a puppy resort! Would HIGHLY recommend Elizabeth to other dog parents and can not say enough good things about her. Thank you, Elizabeth, for taking such good care of Bella! We will be booking again!”
“Ashley was great for our dogs! We were in a pinch and needed someone within a few days to watch them for the weekend and Ashley was very responsive and cooperative. The dogs loved their stay at her place and were well taken care of! Ashley's communication was great with how the dogs were doing as well. Would definitely recommend!”
“Melissa is a rockstar! I don’t think our dogs even noticed we were gone! She took amazing care of our two Great Danes and sent us tons of pictures everyday! We will definitely be using Melissa again! Highly recommend her!”
“Grant and his wife were fantastic! Daisy immediately was happy to be in their space and meet their sweet dog, Tuff. They provided us picture/video updates and were flexible with an earlier drop off time than originally planned on. Upon picking Daisy up we could see how well they cared for and loved her. (: We will absolutely use Grant again in the future!!”
