He took her on daily walks and gave her plenty of time to play and run in the yard. We will absolutely reach out to him again whenever we need someone to watch our dog! Highly recommend Gustavo!!”
“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.”
“I had a great experience with Saranya. They were communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about my pet’s well-being. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”
“Rachel, Katee and their family were so welcoming to our sweet Kiya! 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! She loved getting to play with their dog, Rudy and their daughter. We would definitely book with them again!”

“This was our dog's second stay with Madhu and both times we have been very happy with how he cared for our dog! He sends pictures everyday, with the occasional video. Our dog loves playing with the other dogs and running around Madhu's yard! We were also very appreciative of Madhu's understanding and flexibility with this last pick up time, as we ran into a car repair on our trip home that delayed our arrival time. Overall, we have been very pleased with Madhu and will continue to book him in the future for our dog!”

About: I specialize in: oral & injected medication administration · trick training · senior pet care · separation anxiety · crate training · picky eaters · cat socialization With 15 years of experience raising and training dogs and caring for a senior cat, I know what patience, attention, and genuine love for animals looks like. My own cat is on a daily medication and weekly injection schedule, so if your pet needs medical care, you’re in the right hands! 🫶🏻 I offer three walks a day: longer morning walk (25–30 mins to truly smell the roses 🌹 ), an afternoon outing, and a short evening pit-stop. My pup is crate trained and will happily invite your dog to join our bedtime routine. 🐾 My partner works from home full-time 🧑💻🏠, so there is always someone present in the apartment, your pet is never alone. Boarding guests have their own dedicated room to decompress. We also have a balcony with a bird-watching view that Skylar visits at least 3 times a day to just relax and take it all in.
“Elisa was an amazing dog sitter for Coco! From the start, she was friendly, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. Coco can sometimes be a little shy at first, but Elisa was patient and quickly made her feel comfortable and cared for. Throughout the stay, Elisa kept me updated with messages and photos, which really gave me peace of mind. It was clear Coco was happy, well-exercised, and getting lots of attention. When I picked her up, she was relaxed and in great spirits. I’m so grateful for the care Elisa gave Coco and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend Elisa to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter!”
About: Hi! I’m Alizée, a stay-at-home mom in St. Peters offering loving, personalized in-home dog care in a calm and safe family setting. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home most of the day, which means your dog will receive plenty of attention, companionship, supervised playtime, and regular potty breaks—no long hours alone. At the very maximum and on special occasions, I may be gone a maximum of 2h a day. I share my home with two sweet senior female Chihuahuas, so caring for dogs is already part of my daily life. Their gentle presence helps create a calm, dog-friendly environment, and I’m very attentive to comfort, routines, and each dog’s individual needs. I also bring a healthcare background to my pet care: I worked for 6 years as a nursing assistant and phlebotomist, which means I’m comfortable and experienced with special care needs, including oral medications, injections/shots, and close monitoring for senior or medically sensitive pets. What your dog will enjoy here: 🐾 A safe fenced yard for outdoor play and potty breaks - no chemicals are used in our yard and we remove dog's waste every other day. 🌳 Daily walks and outings near our local park 🏡 A cozy home environment—never a kennel 📸 Daily photo and video updates ❤️ Plenty of affection, supervision, and personalized care I intentionally keep the number of dogs I host to one at the time (or multiple from the same family) so every guest gets the attention they deserve and feels safe and comfortable. I’m happy to care for small to medium dogs, including puppies who aren't fully potty trained yet, adults, and seniors, and I always recommend a meet-and-greet before the first stay to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. Make sure your puppy is comfortable with other small dogs, and children. I’d love to welcome your pup into our home! Feel free to ask me any questions, I love what I do and I want my clients to know their puppy will be safe and properly cared for at my house. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available all day to care for your fur baby. Rarely away more than 2h at the time, your pup will have all the attention and playtime he needs. Our family wakes up early the morning, before 6.30am so if your puppy sleeps in a kennel, he will be out of it at sunrise. If the weather permits, we go for daily walks at the park and/or in the neighborhood. I adapt my days to your animal. So if your puppy needs more or less walk, more or less yard play, or any specific care, this is not a problem. My clients usually come with their feeding instructions and a feeding schedule for their puppy, and I will be applying all the rules they see fit for their animal. I like to keep your animal on the same routine as at your house to allow less stress on them. I have a fenced yard, two elderly female chihuahuas and a child at home. Dogs are never left unattended in the yard, I am always with them. I can easily crate your puppy if needed and I am familiar with the app FI that some of my clients already use. As a healthcare professional for several years, I am comfortable caring for older or sick animals. I provide daily pictures and videos to ease your stress while you are away. We do not use any chemicals in our yard and a very limited amount inside the house. Most of our space is cleaned using steam water. We also allow our own pets on the furnitures and your pup will receive the same privilege if this is in accordance with your own rules. We practice separate feeding time/station and separate sleeping area from our own dogs. Our house is equipped with cameras, inside and outside, allowing me to always have an eye on our animal if needed. During walks I do not allow contact with other dogs, and we stay on paved trails (no wooden areas or swamps) or neighborhood sidewalks. Unless it is an emergency, I do not take the liberty to transport my client's dog in the car. *exception will be made if you ask me to do so*

“Christine so reliable, trustworthy and easy to work with when you need an extra hand. She loves animals, and might even sneak in some kitty pets if they are allowed.”
About: I grew up around cats and have taken care of them since I was a little girl. I raised my own cat from being a kitten to 21 years old! I don’t have any cats of my own currently but that’s where you come in. I would love to care for your feline friend!
About: For cat boarding: I have: cat trees, heated bed & pads, clean liter box, travel carriers, food, treats, lickables, fresh catnip & grass, and obviously a cat. I specialize in cats with allergies, socialization, early detection of signals before need of hospitalization, and helping kitty cats going through separation anxiety. My 11 year old cat has seen it all with me. We’ve been to multiple places and he has seen and made many friends along the way. We have a routine of napping all day and yapping all night. I would thoroughly enjoy adding more other kitty cats to harmonize with him as he sings his nightly songs. With a senior cat, I am extra observant of bowel movement, water intake, and sleep schedule. Though the easiest animal to care for, they like to suffer in silence and as caretakers we neeeed to be aware of the signs. My senior cat and I have a daily routine for administrating medicine and weekly injections, I can absolutely add another baby to our routine if special foods or oral / injected medications are required for yours. If they stay with me, I have a small - mid size husky mix (35lbs), who’s a gentle soul and would rather do a flip than step on a kitty cats toe bean. My husky pup grew up with cats so, trust me, his is more cat than dog - all he’s missing is a meow. I can assure you, he is more of a danger to himself than your baby. I also understand how cats prefer to be introduced (upon request) to dogs which is why my dog is crated for naps and at night. Your baby’s safety and comfort is our number one priority. Message for any questions !
About: I’ve taken care of mostly dogs since I was a kid. I grew up raising dogs and showing dogs. We raised several breeds growing up. I have cared for puppies as well as adult dogs. I do teach full time, but am available after 4pm most days. My day starts at 7:10 so I could do a very early drop in or walk if needed. My weekends are very flexible and can be reliant on client needs. I am very conscientious of owner and pet needs. I will take of your pet like it is my own baby and follow care directions exactly.
About: I have a lot of experience with dog sitting and walking because of families that needed help with their canine friends while they were away for long periods of time. I have also had to give a dog shots of insulin everyday because of her diabetes so I am comfortable with medicine and needles if needed. I have also had the opportunity to walk dogs around multiple parts of St. Louis so I know the city and it’s roads very well. My availability is mostly flexible. I love dogs and want to continue to care for them. I will provide your dog with unlimited care, treat him/her as if they were my own, and love them unconditionally. I understand that dogs are a part of the family and deserve the best care.
“Ruth did a great job with drop in visits to care for my 2 cats while gone on vacation. I received pictures every visit and updates on how they were. Despite my older cat Milly being a bit antisocial, Leo warmed up to her immediately and loved the extra attention he received. Ruth cleaned my rugs where Milly had spit up, even offering to launder them. It was a relief knowing they were being cared for while we were gone.”
“Lindsay has been a huge help with coming over and spending time with my 2 dogs while im at work. She stops by and lets them out to potty and spends some time with them multiple times a week. It makes me feel good knowing I can trust her, that she enjoys being with them and that shes very experienced in dealing with different breeds and personalities of dogs!”
About: I combine professional training knowledge with real-world animal care experience. I graduated from the Academy of Pet Careers in March 2025 with a specialized dog trainer certification. Beyond dogs, I’ve also owned and cared for cats, fish, lizards, and guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals. I truly love caring for pets and treat them with the same patience, safety, and attention I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I currently work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time with pets. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment where pets can maintain their normal routine as much as possible. In a client’s home, I carefully follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any training or behavioral guidelines provided by the owner.
“Bryan was great! He was super flexible and accommodating to what I have going on in my life currently. He sent me photos and updates which really put my mind at ease. We will definitely use him again!”
“Rachel was everything we hoped for and more! She arrived on time for each visit and spent the full 30 minutes with our new little pup giving him a break during the day when we were gone. She was conscientious of changing out anything that was soiled in his kennel and kept him busy with lots of activity and play time. Rachel also went above and beyond during a visit where our older dog unexpectedly got sick...not only did she take her out, but cleaned her and her kennel up...it was SO appreciated since we weren't there to take care our girl. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would...Rachel has been amazing!!!”
About: I’ve had cats all my life and have interacted with cats of all kinds. My pride and joy Magic sadly passed away a couple of years ago at the age of 21, she was very well loved and taken care of all her life and I will apply that same love and care to every cat I encounter. I love cats and whenever playing or interacting with them I will always respect their boundaries.
“Giulianna was wonderful to work with. I contacted her at the absolute last minute, and she was still able to accommodate me. She was quick to respond, very professional, and took great care of everything. I’d absolutely book with her again.”
About: I have lived my whole life around all different types of animals, including cats. I am personally a Dog Mom of 1, but cats hold a special place in my heart. If my family wasn’t allergic to cats, I would have caved and brought home another furry friend by now (LOL). I have experience checking in on cats and caring for them while their Cat Parents are away. My main focus is to show your pet some extra love while they are patiently waiting for you to return, and to help you as a cat parent feel at peace, knowing your cat is being well taken care of.
“This is my second time hiring Lauren to cat/house sit for me. She did a wonderful job once again and was very communicative with me throughout the entire stay. She sends pics and updates of my girls and helps ease my mind. I would recommend her to anyone in the area!”
“Corensia did a great job taking care of our cat Gloria and the outside birds, as well as picking up the mail and packages every day. I appreciated the great photos and could see that Gloria, who is very shy and timid, allowed Corensia to let her and run her belly! Amazing! Thank you. I would definitely use Corensia again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Weldon
“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.”
“Illie was so comfortable in Zadee’s home and warmed up fast, even for being a shy dog! She kept me updated throughout the stay and was so attentive to her needs. We highly recommend a stay with Zadee.”
About: I've lived with dogs my whole life and provided dogsitting services for over 5 years! Have 1 friendly dog of my own, and work from home full-time with a nice fenced yard. Lots of availability! I work from home full-time and don't travel often, so I'm usually available any days. Available around the holidays as well, so happy to watch your pets while you travel. I have a fenced back yard and 1 friendly dog of my own to keep yours company. Comfortable environment here and I'm usually home all day.
“I cannot recommend Melanie enough as a dog sitter! She took such wonderful care of my shy little Daisy, and I could tell right away that my pup fit in and felt safe in her care. Melanie’s pack of mini Aussies were perfect companions, and my dog absolutely adored playing with them. It was heartwarming to see her come out of her shell, and I’m sure it’s because she got so much attention, exercise, and socialization with Melanie and her furry friends. She even discovered a few new toys to fall in love with! I couldn’t be happier with the experience and would trust Melanie with my dog again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for treating her like one of your own!”
“Lindsay was amazing!! She did so many activities with my dog - they went to Petco, on a hike, got a Puppucino at Starbucks, and played doggie puzzles. She went above and beyond, I appreciate her giving so much of her time and attention to him! Will definitely be back!”
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.
“Elisabeth was amazing!!!!!!! Our little Scout absolutely loved going to visit her and her family. Elisabeth sent videos and picks of their day and seemed to really enjoy the animals. Will definitely be a repeat client!! Thank you so much for loving our baby!!”
About: My passion for animal welfare drives me to provide attentive, reliable care for your companions. With 25 years of experience, I prioritize your dogs comfort and happiness by treating them as if they were my own. I maintain a safe, stimulating environment through consistent routines and strict adherence to specific dietary needs. Whether managing high-energy breeds with active play or vigilantly monitoring for health changes, I ensure your pet feels secure in their own home. I hold certifications in Pet CPR and Pet First Aid, and I always keep emergency contacts accessible to ensure prompt communication. I truly enjoy witnessing the unique quirks of every animal I meet. My goal is to offer you complete peace of mind while I provide your pet with the kindness and responsible attention they deserve. I look forward to building a loving, trusting bond with your furry family member. I am home four days a week and able to provide endless entertainment, exercise, and comfort to your fur baby. Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy level and routine. I make safety, exercise, and positive interaction a priority. I have a big fenced in back yard and a kind, loving, mini Aussie who is eight years old. I understand how important consistency is, so I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I also make sure to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is doing well.

“Ashley is excellent with dogs. My pup was immediately welcomed into Ashley’ home. Ashley is very responsive and is genuinely invested into my pup. I highly recommend Ashley and will definitely request her services again.”
“Carla. Is a diligent, caring pet professional. This was my first time partnering with Carla and I could not be more pleased. She has vast experience in pet care and instills confidence in her immediately upon netting her. She is friendly, warm , compassionate, and my pup bonded with her milliseconds after meeting her and her pets. Very pleased to have found, Carla. I highly recommend her.”

About: Hi there! I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have been around cats/dogs my whole life, from puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats! I currently have a dog and a puppy of my own. I am a school speech therapist who is off work for the summer. I would love to make some new furry friends and to help ease your dog mom/dad guilt while you’re vacationing or at work. I will treat your babies as my own, whether it’s giving them snuggles while you’re away, taking your furry friends for a walk or just stopping by to say hello! I understand how hard it is to leave your fur babies. I value open communication and will send you updates with pictures while you are away or busy! If you are interested or have any questions please reach out to me. I’d love to set up a meet and greet :) I am on summer break from work so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to my daily schedule. I am a night owl so I have availability during the night as well. I have a lot of pet experience and would love to provide long walks and visits with your pet while you’re at work or have plans!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my love for animals and my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages. Growing up, my family had two dogs, so I have cared for pets through every stage of life, from puppies to senior dogs. After caring for both, I gained valuable experience in dog walking and watching. Overall, I am confident that I can adapt to each dog’s individual needs. I am also very reliable and great at communicating. I will make it a priority to updates the parents with messages and even photos. I am currently a college-athlete, so during the school year, I do have to dedicate time each day for class and practice. However, I want to make time for this because I really enjoy spending time with animals. Since I can not be with my own, pet walking/sitting is the perfect opportunity! When I care for a pet in a client’s home, I would follow their routine as closely as possible so that their pet feels comfortable. For dog walks, I would make sure to match the dog’s energy level and needs. As for their safety, I am always alert and off my phone so that they have my full attention.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was born. Taking care of them has been one of the greatest privileges I’ve had. I am always helping out and trying to train them! I also love taking care of my friend's pets as well. My dog is currently 11, so I’m comfortable with senior dogs as well. I have a part time job, so I have a lot of free time! I usually have mornings, afternoons, and evenings where I can work around my schedule. I have a very safe environment for my pets at home.

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was 8 years old and have owned and cared for three cats since I was 14. My experience has taught me how to meet pets daily needs, recognize when something is wrong, and help them feel comfortable and safe. I treat every pet like my own. I’m a full time student and I have a part time job. I’m available from 5-8am, 12-3pm, and anytime after 8:30pm I currently do not offer pet boarding in my home. For house sitting and drop-in visits, I care for pets in the comfort of their own home where they can maintain their normal routine. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medication administration if needed, litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages to ensure peace of mind while they are away.
About: I have a lot of experience with dog sitting and walking because of families that needed help with their canine friends while they were away for long periods of time. I have also had to give a dog shots of insulin everyday because of her diabetes so I am comfortable with medicine and needles if needed. I have also had the opportunity to walk dogs around multiple parts of St. Louis so I know the city and it’s roads very well. My availability is mostly flexible. I love dogs and want to continue to care for them. I will provide your dog with unlimited care, treat him/her as if they were my own, and love them unconditionally. I understand that dogs are a part of the family and deserve the best care.

“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.”
“I had a great experience with Saranya. They were communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about my pet’s well-being.

I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”

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! She loved getting to play with their dog, Rudy and their daughter. We would definitely book with them again!”
“This was our dog's second stay with Madhu and both times we have been very happy with how he cared for our dog! He sends pictures everyday, with the occasional video. Our dog loves playing with the other dogs and running around Madhu's yard! We were also very appreciative of Madhu's understanding and flexibility with this last pick up time, as we ran into a car repair on our trip home that delayed our arrival time. Overall, we have been very pleased with Madhu and will continue to book him in the future for our dog!”

About: Hi! I’m Alizée, a stay-at-home mom in St. Peters offering loving, personalized in-home dog care in a calm and safe family setting. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home most of the day, which means your dog will receive plenty of attention, companionship, supervised playtime, and regular potty breaks—no long hours alone. At the very maximum and on special occasions, I may be gone a maximum of 2h a day. I share my home with two sweet senior female Chihuahuas, so caring for dogs is already part of my daily life. Their gentle presence helps create a calm, dog-friendly environment, and I’m very attentive to comfort, routines, and each dog’s individual needs. I also bring a healthcare background to my pet care: I worked for 6 years as a nursing assistant and phlebotomist, which means I’m comfortable and experienced with special care needs, including oral medications, injections/shots, and close monitoring for senior or medically sensitive pets. What your dog will enjoy here: 🐾 A safe fenced yard for outdoor play and potty breaks - no chemicals are used in our yard and we remove dog's waste every other day. 🌳 Daily walks and outings near our local park 🏡 A cozy home environment—never a kennel 📸 Daily photo and video updates ❤️ Plenty of affection, supervision, and personalized care I intentionally keep the number of dogs I host to one at the time (or multiple from the same family) so every guest gets the attention they deserve and feels safe and comfortable. I’m happy to care for small to medium dogs, including puppies who aren't fully potty trained yet, adults, and seniors, and I always recommend a meet-and-greet before the first stay to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. Make sure your puppy is comfortable with other small dogs, and children. I’d love to welcome your pup into our home! Feel free to ask me any questions, I love what I do and I want my clients to know their puppy will be safe and properly cared for at my house. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available all day to care for your fur baby. Rarely away more than 2h at the time, your pup will have all the attention and playtime he needs. Our family wakes up early the morning, before 6.30am so if your puppy sleeps in a kennel, he will be out of it at sunrise. If the weather permits, we go for daily walks at the park and/or in the neighborhood. I adapt my days to your animal. So if your puppy needs more or less walk, more or less yard play, or any specific care, this is not a problem. My clients usually come with their feeding instructions and a feeding schedule for their puppy, and I will be applying all the rules they see fit for their animal. I like to keep your animal on the same routine as at your house to allow less stress on them. I have a fenced yard, two elderly female chihuahuas and a child at home. Dogs are never left unattended in the yard, I am always with them. I can easily crate your puppy if needed and I am familiar with the app FI that some of my clients already use. As a healthcare professional for several years, I am comfortable caring for older or sick animals. I provide daily pictures and videos to ease your stress while you are away. We do not use any chemicals in our yard and a very limited amount inside the house. Most of our space is cleaned using steam water. We also allow our own pets on the furnitures and your pup will receive the same privilege if this is in accordance with your own rules. We practice separate feeding time/station and separate sleeping area from our own dogs. Our house is equipped with cameras, inside and outside, allowing me to always have an eye on our animal if needed. During walks I do not allow contact with other dogs, and we stay on paved trails (no wooden areas or swamps) or neighborhood sidewalks. Unless it is an emergency, I do not take the liberty to transport my client's dog in the car. *exception will be made if you ask me to do so*
