“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”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Elizabeth. She took care of my dog for 2 1/2 weeks, sent a photo & comment every day about how Bessie was doing, and it was obvious she is passionate about animals! Because of her experience working for a vet I felt very comfortable that she was giving Bess her medicine, and since Bess is an older dog, she and her family gave her lots of cuddles and care. I won’t hesitate to ask her to dog sit again! Bessie also formed a friendship with one of their family’s dogs. She was very happy there!!”
“I don’t ever need to look for another sitter again after finding Tiffiny and her family. She was amazing for the entire time my boy stayed with her. She was above and beyond and always made sure I was up to date and had pictures and videos everyday. Book with her if you care about your pets safety because they will be taken very great care of.”
“Highly recommend! Took our 1.5 yr old boxer for a last minute stay and it went great! She introduced our pup to each of her dogs and everyone got along great, fenced in yard for them to roam and lets them cuddle inside on the couches. Thanks again Cheyenne!”
“We had a great experience! She made our nervous dog feel comfortable from the very beginning and treated her like she was one of her own. She kept in great communication throughout the entire stay, sent lots of updates and photos, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious how much she genuinely cared for our sweet girl and we will absolutely use her again.”
“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!”
“Jill was communicative and shared pictures daily. She was patient with my dog who had a little separation sadness initially. It was apparent that she cared for Coco the same way we would at home. We returned to very happy dog. We will definitely use Jill in the future.”
“Brianna and her family were so awesome with our dog, Emmy. This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Emmy had lots of play time, pets, and snuggles. She even came home with her own bag of home made doggie treats! I will book Brianna for future stays.”
“Rachel is absolutely wonderful with the pets that she keeps. Our family was in kind of pickle because my dad was hospitalized and needed someone to care for his furry companion while he was away.

Cannot say enough at how well Rachel communicated during her stay with messages and photos. Rachel was a godsend!! Thank you so much Rachel!!!”

Yingfei took wonderful care of our Frenchie for 11 days, including giving her daily allergy medication and keeping us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. Our dog came home happy, healthy, and well loved. We would absolutely book with Yingfei again and highly recommend her!”

“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!”

About: I own two cats that are actually outdoor cats! We taught them to stay away from the road when out exploring, come back for dinner at a certain time, and we lock them up in a safe, air conditioned/heated room at night to protect them from any dangerous wildlife! They are both 7 years old and we have had them both since they are 12 week old kittens! They love to hangout on the porch outside with us in our laps!
About: I've grown up with animals my entire life. I look at my own, like my kids. I want to provide peace while you're away, knowing your animal(s) is/are being cared for properly. I reside in Labadie and understand the frustration that can come with finding an honest, reliable and trustworthy person to care for our fur babies. We don’t have as many resources available as the county. I can help fill that void. A walk, a little play time or feeding? Let me know your needs! I'd love to help! I work full time as a financial economic crime analyst for a large agricultural bank. I work from home 2 of the 5 days and the other 3 I am in Chesterfield working from the office.

About: I have been taking care of my boyfriend’s brother’s cat for almost 10 months and have built a special bond with her (made before I spoiled her). I have pet sat for about 7 indoors cats and plenty of outdoor ones. I don’t have much experience with kittens or seniors but I’m sure I can learn with experience and instructions. I love cats and they usually love me as well (sometimes even if they don’t like a lot of people). I love to cuddle and if they don’t then I love them from afar. If they like to go out in the sun with a harness then I’ll take them out for a little bit. I also love spoiling them but not too much.
“Laure was absolutely awesome. She came by our house multiple times for two weeks when we went on vacation. She spent time with my 18 tear old cat Jude so she wasn't lonely. She made sure Jude had all she needed, fed her and our stray kitties, she even brushed Jude!! I would recommend her to everyone”
“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.”

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 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.
“Erica is wonderful! Her true love of dogs really shines through when taking care of my Millie! Millie gets so excited to go over there and is always worn out from all the playing! She is also very accommodating which is wonderful for my crazy schedule. Hands down, recommend her!”
“Alvin loves going to Beth’s every day! He is so in tune with morning routine of getting ready and out the door! He’s ready to go before I can get a cup of coffee. He loves being with the friends he’s made and all of the great exercise he gets! Thanks to her family for loving our Alvin!”
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.
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.
“I just got my first dog and was super nervous having someone watch him for the first time. Jeanne made it much easier and I feel very comfortable letting her watch my pup. I will be booking her again!”
About: I have had my 2 dogs since they are 8 weeks old. I would be so happy to look after your babies. I have a fenced yard with protection from dogs getting out. I currently work from home more than 3 days a week and can change accordingly. I’m flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. Your babies will have 24/7 care and love with us.

“Ursula was fantastic. She communicated very well with us during Marley's stay at her home. We really appreciated her care for our little dog when we were in Tucson for a brief stay.”
About: I have had dogs all my life. I have taken care of every age of dog. I grew up wanting to be a veterinarian my entire childhood. I was even going to try and start the process, but then life happened and my plans had to change. My plans took me to being a stay at home mom to 3 kids who also love animals. While I am no professional, I love trying to help my dogs learn new tricks or commands. Once again not a professional, but I do all of my dogs grooming needs myself. I have clippers and a grinder for nails and all kinds of brushes. For the babies not afraid of vacuums I also have a pet grooming vacuum. I can brush bathe and clip dogs nails at the owners request. If you bring your own shampoo the bath will be at no cost to you. If you dont have any it will just be a small fee for me to use some that I have. I am able to give medications if need be. I can also follow special diet routines if necessary as long as you bring the supplies that are needed. I am a stay at home mom for our 3 kids so when your fur baby is in my care they will hardly ever have to be kenneled. Potty breaks can be as often as needed based on what they are used to at their actual home. Daily walks can be taken(depending on the weather). I would be delighted to care for your dog while you’re away! My home is shared with my husband, our three children, and two friendly dogs who love to play in our fenced yard. I also offer daily walks to keep your pup active and happy. I normally follow a two-meal schedule with my own dogs, but I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s usual routine. Since we also have a cat, it’s important that visiting dogs are comfortable around cats. My goal is to make your dog feel as happy and comfortable as possible while you’re gone. If there are any special routines or comforts that help your pup feel at ease, I’ll gladly accommodate them when I can. For higher-energy dogs, I even have experience biking with pups who enjoy an active workout.

I am currently working from home which means my schedule is very flexible for potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of pictures while you’re gone! I have a fenced-in yard for playtime at my house and a mini dachshund who can be kept separately if needed during your pet’s stay.
“Kristin is THE best dog sitter we have ever met. My dogs start whining when we get on her street and as soon as we pull up to her house they bolt from the car straight to her door. When she has watched them overnight we get frequent pics and updates. We know they are always in great hands. She is the only dog sitter we recommended.”

I have several years of experience in the veterinary field in California, and caring for animals has always been a huge passion of mine ❤️ I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddle time, or sticking to their daily schedule, I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own.

I love caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay relaxed and keep their normal routine.

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.

You can count on regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know your pup is in good hands.

I have always have had a passion for being around animals and know they are more than just a pet, they are family.

Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior, provide fresh water, and give attention or comfort as needed. In the evening, I feed them again, take them out one last time, and help them settle down for the night.

I will always provide dilligent and careful care of both your pets and your home.
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 grown up with dogs all my life! From puppies to seniors, big to small breeds, I love and can provide proper care for all. I’ve dog sat and house sat for over 5 years and thoroughly enjoy spending my time with animals :) I’m a student enrolled in virtual classes so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m pretty much always able to work around whoever needs sitting! I offer drop ins to keep your pets company, let them out, feed them, and give them the love and attention they need. I can house sit as well but prefer a meet and greet before to establish trust and safety!
About: What sets me apart is my patience, flexibility, and genuine love for animals. I understand that pets, like people, need time to warm up, so I always work on their schedule — not mine. As a mom of two students high school and college, caring for pets fills my heart and time with purpose. I’m dependable, respectful of your home, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and understood. This is my full-time occupation, I don’t mind driving or going the extra mile to make sure your home and pets are cared for like family I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a calm, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. 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.
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: I currently own 2 dogs and have grown up with dogs my whole life! We are on a very good schedule with eating, potty, and walking. I am used to about a 30 minute walk with my dogs so I’m willing to take them however far they want. I love dog cuddles and playing fetch. I live with all my pets and am responsible for caring for them everyday. I can walk, play, and feed on a schedule very well I will strictly follow a schedule if you were to give me one and make sure your animals are well taken care of every day
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats most of my life. From training puppies, to caring for older dogs who have needed round the clock medicine and care and everything in between. I have taken care of kittens/cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards, fish, you name your pet and I have probably come into contact with it at some point. I have always wanted to become a veterinarian, but life took me in other directions, so now I show my love and support for the animal community by helping people take care of their fur babies. I am currently working night shift 3 nights out of the week, but I could be available for walks or pet sitting any other time. My neighborhood is wonderful, I have plenty of nearby parks, as well as, a walking trail directly in my neighborhood. It is a very pet friendly place, with lots of other pets to interact with and also has a dog park. I usually only do healthy treats for training, but obviously will cater to whatever schedule or routine your animal needs.

“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”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Elizabeth. She took care of my dog for 2 1/2 weeks, sent a photo & comment every day about how Bessie was doing, and it was obvious she is passionate about animals! Because of her experience working for a vet I felt very comfortable that she was giving Bess her medicine, and since Bess is an older dog, she and her family gave her lots of cuddles and care. I won’t hesitate to ask her to dog sit again! Bessie also formed a friendship with one of their family’s dogs. She was very happy there!!”
“I don’t ever need to look for another sitter again after finding Tiffiny and her family. She was amazing for the entire time my boy stayed with her.

Cannot say enough at how well Rachel communicated during her stay with messages and photos. Rachel was a godsend!! Thank you so much Rachel!!!”

“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! 🐶🐾❤️”
“This was Baileys first overnight stay with Katie but it definitely won’t be his last!! I can not recommend her enough!! She sent us wonderful updates and pics every day and was so tuned in to Baileys personality and needs. She was also very responsive and easy to communicate with when we were traveling. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind while we were out of town knowing he was being loved and well taken care of. We will definitely be booking Katie for our next trip!”
“Our experience with Madhu and her family was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we entrusted them with the care of our beloved pups, we knew we made the right choice. They treated our dogs like cherished family members, showering them with love and attention throughout their stay. The daily updates, complete with videos and pictures, were a delightful touch that kept us connected and reassured. Their spacious backyard provided the perfect playground for our furry friends to romp and explore to their hearts' content. It was evident that they went above and beyond to ensure our pups felt at home. What truly stood out was their thoughtfulness in asking all the right questions to tailor the experience to our dogs' individual needs and preferences. Their genuine care and consideration for our pets' well-being were palpable and deeply appreciated. Without a doubt, we will be returning to Madhu and Her family for future pet-sitting needs. Their exceptional service, coupled with their warmth and dedication, have earned our trust and gratitude. Highly recommended to anyone seeking top-notch care for their furry companions.”

This was the longest trip we’ve been on without her and I felt so much ease knowing they were taking care and loving on her like she was their own. They sent updates everyday and lots of pictures!
