“Our dogs enjoyed their stay and we greatly appreciated the updates given throughout! Our dog Oscar can be a little fear aggressive with strangers and he was at ease right away.”
“Penelope had a great time! Julia sent pictures for us which kept me at ease. It was a great vacation for both of us. I would definitely use her next time.”
“Jenny and co were all so great to my cat Qaswa 😁 She would provide daily updates with photos and videos of how things were going all day. They're very knowledgeable and understanding on cat's tendencies and did a great job accommodating her along with some other cats who were also staying over the long weekend. I definitely recommend housing your cats with them and I plan to do it again for my next vacation”
“Sarah opened her home to my girls and made them comfortable. They usually go to their granny's but all were going on this trip, so it was a very big deal for them to stay elsewhere. They played, walked, rested, and probably were questioning coming home, they were given so much attention. Sarah shared photos and even with a snowstorm ensured they were safe and had fun. I was very pleased. We will call upon sarah again!”

“If you want your pet to be spoiled and catered to while you’re away, I highly recommend Nana! She was fantastic with providing care and updates.”

“I had great experience with Adolfo. He always sent all the pictures, shared how my pups were doing and handled my husky that suddenly decided that this will be a perfect time to throw a tantrum and not eat his usual food.”
“Quinton was a very nice host to my fur baby! She was well taken care of and looked so happy in the photos he sent. Communicaton from him was definitely top tier. I’d definitely book again :)”

“Tilly was so loved and cared for, I wasn't sure she'd want to come back home with me! I was so appreciative of the communication with updated photos and videos; I'm also grated for helps with behavior modifications since my dog is a foster and still learning the ropes. Highly recommended!”
“We had the best experience with Mandy! Our pups had the best time, and she was so great about keeping us updated and sending pics/videos. It was such a wonderful peace of mind to be able to be on vacation with my family and not have to worry about my fur babies! I have no doubt that they were well cared for and loved. They also had fun playing with her fur baby and cannot wait to go back!”

“Lillian was GREAT!!!! She was there on short notice and able to change her schedule to accommodate watching my pup! Anytime I needed to reach out she responded very quickly and kept me updated as well. Willow loves walks and attention and she got all of it def will use Lillian again for my baby.”
“Alena was very attentive and thorough watching my cat! She gave me lots of details and pictures in her Rover cards, which I appreciated while I was away from my cat. I would definitely book her again next time I need a sitter!”
“Kaity did a great job taking care of Murphy and letting me know how it went each day. When she came by to meet him before my booking dates, he was friendly to her almost instantly, which very seldom happens here. He's usually shy and hides out when strangers are in the house, but he did come out and meet her and say hello. I felt very comfortable with her, especially knowing she has a beautiful cat of her own.”
“Jamie is an excellent cat sitter. He is dedicated and absolutely trustworthy. He has taken good care of my kitty, Felicia, numerous times. He always makes sure that she has everything that she needs. He is patient with her little quirks and moodiness whenever I am away. He always sends detailed updates and pictures to let me know how she is doing after each visit. I strongly recommend Jamie as a responsible and caring pet sitter.”
“Emily is awesome! She took great care of our two high maintenance and special needs cats while we were away. We felt so relieved that they were under her care. We’d recommend her to anyone!”
“Danielle did great during a ten day visit with our cat! She sent pictures and was consistent with the time she visited as we requested. Will use her again!”

“Jenn took great care of my cat over the holidays, sent me very cute videos of her, and even dealt with my landlords changing my locks with less than 24 hours notice right at the beginning of the stay!”
“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!”
“Gabbie is great! My pup is pretty shy and going through some health concerns. Gabbie was attentive to what my dog needs, has been consistently on-time and has built up trust with her in the span of a week. Sadie seems really excited when Gabbie comes by and seems to enjoy their mid-day play sessions!”
“Brooke was amazing and took great care of our two cats. We received updates everyday and they were in great spirits when we got home. We couldn’t recommend Brooke enough!”
About: I've taken care of friends cats for several years. Spent nights with the cat friends who get lonely, dropped in my more independent cat friends. I've given pills and dispensed hair ball medicine.
“I can’t say enough good things about Rachel! I have been looking for a house sitter for years due to my dog’s anxiety and inability to board. Rachel does this full-time, so she actually stayed at my house throughout the day to look after my dog, two cats, and two birds and sent great pictures every day. She’s everything I have ever wanted in a house/pet sitter. I can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Hannah was great taking care of my cat for a quick drop in visit. She was able to refill his food and clean his litter box. Unfortunately my cat was not in the mood to meet strangers and Hannah knew to just say hello from afar and not push it!”
“Ross did a great job with our two cats. He provided exactly the care we requested and spent time playing with our young cat to help her get out that pent up energy! He also provided superior communication. We greatly appreciated his sitting services”
“Lauren was wonderful! She took great care of our cat while we were away and sent updates that really helped us relax knowing everything was going well at home. She was reliable, kind, and clearly loves animals. Our cat was comfortable and well cared for, which means a lot to us. We’re very grateful for her help and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“My puppy is super anxious (recently adopted) and Ruthie was excellent with her. She gave her extra attention and was very soothing. Highly recommend Ruthie for anyone with a nervous pup.”
“I’m so grateful for Laura and her family. She was incredibly flexible from start to finish, and my dog is completely worn out—in the best way! Laura gave her all the attention I couldn’t, and I couldn’t be more thankful.”
“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 !”
“I met Damica early this morning to drop off Bentley and she was more than welcoming. It seems he really took a liking to her. He acted really well, and she sent me many updates about his day and progress at her home and he did amazing. He was more than ready for bed when we got home…lol I loved it. We will be booking again 100%”
“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!”
“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.”
“My dog Taku and I relocated here from Michigan recently. We have no family or friends here in Illinois. I was so stressed and anxious on what I will do with Taku while I’m at work or a long day or long weekend. Taku has separation anxiety where if he’s left alone, he will cry and bark the whole entire time. Then I found Jeena on Rover! She was so accommodating! She allowed Taku and I to come meet her and her cats to see if they all got along, before we booked her for a half day of day care. Taku did really well at her place! He felt comfortable and when I went to pick him up, he was happy and well taken care of. It seemed like he really loved her already and he gave her kisses goodbye! We will definitely be using Jeena again!! We feel so lucky to have found her!!!! Thanks Jeena and Rover!”
About: With over a decade of experience caring for dogs, I’ve been the go-to pet caretaker for family members since I was nine. Whether it was for relatives traveling out of town or my own beloved dogs, I’ve handled a variety of breeds and temperaments with the utmost care and dedication. Rest assured, your furry friend will be in experienced, loving hands. My daily routine revolves around my pup. Each morning starts with a walk before I head to school for a few hours. When I get back, we enjoy some quality time, and I make sure my dog is fed and happy. Even when I work the night shift, I have a trusted friend who comes by to take care of my dog. At night, my dog is right by my side, sleeping in the bed with me until the next morning. Your pet will be cared for with the same love and attention I give my own. I prioritize the safety and well-being of every dog in my care. Whether your dog prefers to be in or out of the crate, I ensure they are comfortable and secure. You can trust that I maintain a vigilant and caring watch over all the dogs I look after.
“If you are a super picky dog parent like me, you will not trust your babies to just anyone looking to make a few extra bucks while you're away. Wendy's home is dog friendly with plenty of fresh clean water, comfortable furniture, baby gates to prevent door-dashing, and a well maintained HUGE secure fenced back yard with plenty of room for your dogs to run and explore! She is a wonderful pet parent, and her personal dogs are very well socialized, loved and cared for. 5 stars from this dog mom!”
“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.”
About: I am a very energetic and active dog mom. I have 1 american bulldog his name is Andy he is my baby. He is about 4 years old. I also got one puppy her name is Chanelle and she is 6 months old. He is so full of energy and she is the most friendliest adorable puppy you will ever see! Other than my 4 legged son, I have a beautiful spacious clean home. I keep everything organized and tidy. I have a fenced back yard where I play with my puppy and keep him active daily. I also go on walks and jogs every night after work and love to treat my puppy when he does a fantastic job! :) (which he always does)!! I’m currently working part time from home and have immediate availability. I have a large home and very spacious backyard. I provide treats and daily walks :) I have a fenced yard. Cage, baby gates to block off certain areas as well. I am a friendly pup mom and am always to help or take care of any pup at my home or customers. I currently work in the mornings part time and am available after 430pm for boarding , pet visits or walks. I am a very active dog mom and ensure to go on walks daily :) I take care of the fur babies by making sure I’m keeping an eye on them at all times and making sure they are safe and having fun. Safety and communication is a priority for me!
“So glad to have found Brian for our pet sitting needs We know that Sparky gets great care and lots of love. Brian is quick to respond and very flexible. We will definitely be back!”
“Shannon and Daniel are great people. Friendly, accommodating and took great care of Sadie. She was very happy when I picked her up and she slept most of the 2.5 hr drive home. They went above and beyond helping me locate a central location to meet my sister and her family to ride together to the Cardinals’ game. I will definitely use them again next time I’m in St Louis.”
“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!”
“Viki very kindly hosted our 1-year-old golden for a day of daycare after our usual daycare person had to leave town urgently. We were so happy to get all the updates and photos of all the fun that Ellie was having at Viki’s place. She was all worn out and happy after a long day of running around and play. I am so glad that we were able to find Viki at the last minute and it turned out to be such a great choice! Can’t thank Viki enough for taking such good care of Ellie!”

About: I've been caring for animals of many species my whole life and take their happiness as seriously as any loved one. I offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and short-term house sits for dogs and cats. I'm experienced with medical protocols and some specialized care for senior and special needs animals, including administering medications and more complex routines. I work with well-trained, well-behaved dogs and have extensive experience with all cat personalities, from anxious to senior to special needs. Where I stand out is that I'm a certified Animal Reiki Master and intuitive. I'm deeply attuned to how animals actually feel and what they need. I genuinely enjoy being present with them and creating a calm, trusting space. I'm an avid walker who loves taking dogs out and exploring together, and I'm an expert at cat play behavior. My own cat needs vigorous morning play to stay balanced, so I get it. I’ll follow your protocols exactly and you'll get updates so you know your pet is thriving and cared for. Your pets are truly remarkable little beings and they deserve all the love and respect they can get. Drop-in visits and walks are available Saturday through Tuesday. For overnights and short-term house sits, I maintain limited availability Friday through Monday, taking on one booking per week. I work part time with my own small business, which is why I'm selective about my schedule. This allows me to provide the quality care and attention your pet deserves. When I'm at your home, I follow your pet's daily routine and schedule as closely as possible. I respect your space completely and leave no trace once I've gone. I'm attentive to your pet's emotional and physical state, so I notice if something feels off and I'll communicate with you about it. I provide regular updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing while you're away. I follow your instructions precisely and care for your home and your animals with the same respect I give my own.
“We found Jamie when we were looking for someone to walk our 2 dogs while I was out of town and my husband had 12 hour work shifts. We have a 10 month old and 2 year old pitbulls, and Jamie was wonderful with them!! He came over late at night and walked them nearly 2 miles every time, even in the pouring rain! He cleaned up when our puppy had an accident, and left wonderful notes so we could know how the visit went. We even told him he didn’t need to walk our older dog since the puppy is handful enough, but he easily walked both of them every time! We will definitely use Jamie again and again when we need a dog sitter!”
“Kyani treated my dog as if she were her own fur baby! My pet was VERY well cared for, and I got detailed updates and pictures for each visit. Definitely planning to book with Kyani again if she’s available!”
“Jenn has been walking Oakley for a few months now. She is incredibly consistent and has been flexible to switch days when needed. She always shares pics of Oakley and it’s clear he’s having a great time and enjoying his walks. Definitely recommend working with Jenn!”
“Rachel helped us out with Patches getting exercise on a snowy day - she did a great job making sure he was suited up with a sweater and motivated him to get a longer walk than usual!”
About: I am the daughter of a veterinary technician and have lived with, fed, cuddled, and played with many different cats and dogs that my mom would bring home. Pets of all kinds, have always been a part of my family and I would love to be a part of yours when you need to get away! I work from home so my schedule is flexiblle, accomodating mornings and evenings, which is perfect to tuck your little one in or feed them breakfast. I am available to drop in for walks, feedings, or even just socialization at your descretion. Anytime of day works for me as I can schedule around your needs.
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
“Lauren was awesome to work with! She genuinely loves dogs, and it was obvious from the moment she walked in. My dog was tired and happy after his walk and she even stayed to play with him afterward. Highly recommend!”
“We’ve been working with Morgan consistently over the past 6 months and she has been absolutely fantastic! She’s incredibly communicative and reliable giving us complete peace of mind. We trust her completely and would recommend her without hesitation to any of our close friends and family!!”
About: I love working with animals and people. I have been known to make friends with animals at any gathering at a home that has pets. I think its important for everyone to interact with animals because they release stress. I make friends with animals a lot because they are all so loveable. I have worked with a lot of animals in high school then a little bit after high school. If you are at work or on a trip I would love to help you take care of your fur babies. When you come home you will be able to tell the love that I have gave them. I will send as many pictures as you want. I love to cuddle with animals as well. If your pet is a cuddle bug we will be best friends! I work as a security officer. My school has changed for sure i work Thursday-Sunday. I go im at 830pm and get off at 7am. It can always change but I will let you know if it's something I can't work around. I live in an apartment that had a fenced in yard. I will never leave them alone. I share the yard with 3 other families. I will also take them to dog parks (for dogs) or long walks
About: I don’t currently have a fur baby of my own so I am looking to care for others’ furry family members. I will love, pamper and care for them as I would my own..... I am looking for long-term relationships, however I would be happy to fill in on a short-term, temporary basis as well. I have a fenced in yard and live close to many parks. If your pet needs one-on-one attention, I am willing to accommodate and only take in one family pet at a time. Your fur baby would get a lot of TLC and one-on-one attention. I have plenty of time in my life to care for and play with your furry family member. I have a fenced in yard. Live close to three nice parks-Carondelet, Jefferson Barracks, Lemay Park. Small dog park in the neighborhood. Lots of places to play nearby. I work part time outside the home. I will be gone for a maximum of five hour blocks when scheduled to work away from home. I have a fenced in yard. My home is very pet friendly. Many pet pillows and toys to choose from throughout the house. I am selective about treats I purchase for my guests. Puppers allowed to be on furniture if the owners are okay with that. I have Ring cameras to keep an eye on the fur babies when I’m away and love to share those videos with the family.
About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. At one point I was taking care of 3 dogs. Currently helping my roommate train her small dogs! I am able to care for pets most nights and weekends! Can stay overnight or make a quick stop for potty breaks, walks, and lovings. I keep a relatively strict feeding schedule but know when to throw in some extra treats for fun. I do my best to exercise with pets and get their energy out in a safe manner.
“Linda is wonderful! She was so sweet and patient with my girl and Lala loved her! I would absolutely recommend Linda and will be scheduling another walk with her again soon!”

I will definitely ask Sarah to keep my fur babies again in the future. Thanks Sarah!”
