Personalized care for your dog or cat - Weldon
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Weldon
“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 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!!”
“Bryan is the best dog sitter I have ever hired. Cooper loves going there and I never worry while I am away. Bryan is reliable, trustworthy and has excellent communication. I love getting the pictures and videos and seeing how much fun Cooper is having.”
“My dogs had another great experience with Melanie for 5 days when I went on vacation. They love it there and her other dogs. The videos and photos she sent each day of my dogs made me feel happy to see them playing and relaxing at her house. Melanie is great, and I’m so happy I found her.”
“Rachel and her family took such good care of Opal, I couldn’t recommend them enough! I felt very comfortable knowing they treated her like their own. She loved playing with Rudy and running around in their huge backyard. They also sent pictures and videos daily, which made being away from Opal so much better!”
“Camille was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Luna. I truly appreciated how flexible and accommodating she was throughout the entire experience. Initially, we had planned for dog boarding, but when that didn’t work out, Camille quickly adapted and switched to in-home visits. She even made an effort to try crate options beforehand, which showed how committed she was to finding the best solution for Luna. This was a last-minute booking, and Camille was incredibly understanding—even adjusting the dates just one day before the scheduled drop-off. Her flexibility really helped reduce a lot of stress. During her visits, she kept me updated by sending videos and clearly spent quality time playing with Luna. It was very reassuring to see how happy and well cared for Luna was in her hands. Overall, Camille went above and beyond, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and flexible pet sitter.”
“My pup seemed like she had an amazing time while we were gone. She came back to us all perfectly tired out from all the playing she did with the other dogs. We will definitely reach out for another stay in the future!”
“Jennine and Berry are incredibly responsible and caring sitters. Our dog Cookie stayed with them for 9 days while my husband and I were out of town, and we couldn’t have been happier with the care they provided. Jennine sent us photos every day, carefully read and followed all our instructions, and kept in close communication with us. Cookie can be quite picky with his food, but Jennine was patient and managed to get him to eat every day. We highly recommend them and will definitely have Cookie stay with them again.”
“Gustavo was amazing! He sent us plenty of pictures and videos to keep us updated and to make sure our dog was happy and comfortable the entire time. 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!!”
“Our Pup loved his time with Dawn! She was very proficient in keeping us up to date with photos. And she was also very flexible on timing for pick up and drop off! Thank you Dawn!”
“I don't have enough words to thank Ursula and her husband for the wonderful care they provided for our dog, Cocoa. They sent me lots of pictures every day, which gave me peace of mind and showed just how happy and comfortable Cocoa was in their home. She also seemed to really enjoy the company of their dog. I could tell Cocoa was well cared for because she was actually sad when we brought her back home from Ursula's house! I was looking for someone who would treat her like a member of the family, and I was a little nervous about leaving her there since it was the first time we had ever been apart. However, I can confidently say that Ursula and her husband cared for Cocoa as if she were their own. I am so grateful for their kindness and dedication, and I will definitely be using Ursula again in the future.”
“I needed someone to watch my 14 yr old dog, who has some anxiety issues on short notice. Amie had some great reviews so I contacted her and she was able to care for him, while I was away. I received updates and pictures throughout his stay. Which made me feel good about the care he was getting. I would definitely recommend Amie as a pet sitter, if you’re in need of one.”
“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!”
“Teresa was wonderful. Kind and thoughtful to make sure our Maggie had a good time. Even a new friend in Snickers. Perfect experience. Thank you Teresa. Will reach out again.”
“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!”
“Ashley did a great job sitting my energetic black lab for 3 days. My dog can be a lot to handle, but Ashley was so polite and understanding. My dog came home with such a big smile on her face- I know she had a good time.”

Cat caregivers near you - Weldon
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: What sets me apart is my combination of medical experience and attention to detail. I'm comfortable administering medications including injections and fluids so pets with chronic issues or post-surgery needs are no problem. I also genuinely don't mind (and actually take pride in) deep-cleaning litter boxes, cages, and small animal enclosures. You'll never come home to a lingering smell or a corner I've skipped. Reliable, thorough, and unfazed by the messy parts of pet care.
About: Outside of having a cat of my own, I also have years of experience taking care of them. Some care I can provide for your cat is cleaning the litter box, feeding, and spending quality time together!
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've cherished cats ever since I could walk or talk, and I've been caring for them since I was 7. I've personally owned 6 cats over my life time (all rescues or strays). I currently have 3 grey cats in the home, and another roaming grey that wants to live inside with us. Grey cats are my specialty, but I've owned an orange Maine Coone (found in a storm drain) and a rescued tabby. Out of the greys, I have an 11 year old Siberian, 5 year old domestic longhair, and a 2 year old short hair wildcard cat mix. When I spend time in Indiana with my fiancé, I take care of his 4 year old wildcard tabby mix. I say wildcards on those last 2 because they may be a little nutty, but each cat has their own personality that I like to respect. I will absolutely honor if your cat likes only pink play mice and no other color (personal experience) or if your cat is not to be touched because they're a little spicy. Tell me who your cat is, and I'll build on that knowledge to truly bond with them. I have a way with cats, and I'd love to make a new kitty friend!
“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!”
“Jaclyn is definitely good with pets and I would highly recommend her services. She instantly bonded with my cat and spend time with him while I was away. She also brought some toys which my kitty enjoyed (and still does). Jaclyn also visited before I left on my trip show I could show her around. She also provided very extensive reports and photos of her visits.”
“Ruth was very professional and did the job well. She fed my pet, cleaned out the litter and also generously offered to water the plants while she was there. Highly recommend and will book again.”
“Taro was super sweet and took such great care of our two kitties! He played with them and left behind some treats for them! He was also super respectful and went above and beyond and would absolutely hire him again in the future!”
“Jordyn did an excellent job. She has very patient and loving to our sometimes skittish and bashful kitty. She even got her to come from under the bed and play. Also, Jordyn took my trash out and wiped down the kitchen counters, great job, thanks you very much. I will definitely call Jordyn the next time we are away. I appreciated all you did.”
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.
“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 taken care of my neighbors pets and house sat for several years. I have multiple years of pet sitting and baby sitting experience in the stl area. I’m currently home for nursing school for the summer and am looking to get a part-time gig while still having time for online classes and studying. I’ve taken care of animals that have a fence and also those who need walks. I’m a big hiker so if your dogs love a hike I’d be a great fit.
About: When your pet stays with us, they’ll never be short on love, attention, or care. My fiancée and I work together as a team, so your furry family member always has someone nearby to meet their needs. Our home provides a safe, active, and welcoming environment, complete with a large, fully fenced backyard for plenty of supervised play and exercise. Whether your dog loves to run, cuddle on the couch, stay by your side every minute, or requires medications and specialized care, we’re experienced and comfortable caring for a wide variety of personalities and needs. Our family includes children who genuinely love animals and enjoy giving pets extra affection, playtime, and companionship. We treat every guest like one of our own, providing personalized care, regular updates, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your best friend is in experienced, caring hands. We can’t wait to meet you and your special companion! Caring for pets is a natural part of our everyday life. I have a flexible work schedule, and my fiancée is a stay-at-home mom, which means your pet is rarely left alone and always has someone nearby to provide care, attention, and companionship. Our daily routine revolves around spending time with the pets in our home—whether that’s supervised playtime in our fenced backyard, relaxing indoors, feeding, walks, cuddle time, or maintaining their normal routine. The only times one of us typically steps away are for brief school drop-offs, pick-ups, or our children’s sports activities, and those outings are usually short. Because someone is almost always home, we’re able to provide frequent potty breaks, personalized attention, medication if needed, and plenty of love throughout the day. We strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and like they’re part of our family during their stay. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our highest priorities. Our home features a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and burn off energy under supervision. Inside, pets are treated like family. They’re welcome to relax on the couch, enjoy plenty of cuddles, or simply find a cozy spot to unwind. For dogs who are crate trained or prefer having their own quiet space, we have additional crates available where they can relax with their favorite blanket or toy. With a two-story home, a finished basement, and multiple living areas, we’re able to accommodate a variety of personalities and energy levels. Whether your dog loves being in the middle of the action or needs a calmer environment while they settle in, we can provide a space where they feel safe and comfortable. Every pet is different, and we take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs so we can provide personalized care throughout their stay. Our goal is for your pet to feel like they’re on their own vacation while you enjoy yours with complete peace of mind.
“Raquel is wonderful! She took great care of my cats and communicated with me about visits. She made daily drop in visits for my cats. I came home to healthy, calm, well taken care of cats. She is very conscientious. I would recommend her and definitely ask her to care for my cats again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Weldon
“I’m so grateful to have found Kristin!! I’ve been bringing my boy to her for a few days a week for daycare for the pst two weeks and he has so much fun with her and his other friends! He comes home happy and tired, so I know he’s being well taken care of. I highly highly recommend her to anyone that needs any sort of service for their babies!!”
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!!”
“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.”
“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.”
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*
“I highly recommend Evan and his partner as a pet sitter! They took wonderful care of my two dogs for a couple of days and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. They were friendly, responsible, and flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. My dogs came home happy and well cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Thank you for taking such great care of my pups!”
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 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.
“Wonderful sitter - Melanie took the time to do a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure the booking was a good fit for everyone. Very attentive and kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout the day. My Obi had a great time!”
“Angel was so great to work with! She was very communicative and she and her family took great care of our pup. She came home exhausted from a long day of play. Angel made sure to send plenty of pictures throughout the day as well! Thank you, Angel for the great care and peace of mind! ❤️”

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 3 years old. I have been taking care of my pets since then. I have house sat for family members. I have taken care of puppies and senior dogs before. I currently work full time from home so I am home daily. I am able to let the dogs out and give them attention all day long. I have a fenced in yard that our dog roams and sits outside often. I give our dog multiple bathroom breaks, play with her and give her lots of love during the day.
“Anusha and her family are too good to work with. Our Pluto was kept very lovingly and utmost care. I kept receiving their playful pics and videos while Pluto was having a good time with all of them. It’s so good and a big relief to see Pluto been left with someone who will treat him with the same love and care that he gets at home. Will be coming back again and again.”
“I felt confident leaving my little dog with Jennifer. She sent adorable photos and updates, throughout the day, made me feel reassured . And the two small dogs got along really well. Definitely book again! Jennifer is wonderful and easy to work with!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Weldon
About: Fostered 11 dogs with my local animal rescue groups. While the fosters were under my care, I would work on basic training and making sure I understood them so I could find them the right home. I have had multiple animals (horses,cats,sheep,goats,mules, rabbits, chickens, you get the picture. ) my whole life. Grew up with puppies being born multiple times a year. I had a 114lb lab mix for 8.5 years and he passed in February. So I'm used to the big dogs. Currently we have 2 cats. I am the kids chauffeur. One child is in hillsboro while the others in ofallon. Wed-fri im in ofallon with down time so I am free during school hours. I will love on and give your pets the attention that they require. I'm capable of feeding, watering,playing, giving any oral medication as needed,having the pet "kennel up" when necessary.
About: What sets me apart is my experience with both ends of the dog spectrum: puppies and seniors. I can handle puppy training basics like potty schedules, crate routines, and leash manners, as well as senior care including medication administration and mobility support. You'll get honest daily updates with photos. No fluff, just reliable care. I’m current a college student home for the summer and taking online classes to fill up my time but my schedule is very flexible for your needs. I would say I can promise you that your pets are in great hands since I have always been so attentive with pet care while living with so many animals in my life.
About: Hi there, I'm Lindsay! I love animals and have always made them a huge part of my life. I currently own 2 cats, and I live with another cat and young dog. I love playing with dogs and teaching them new tricks - no matter if they are lazy or stubborn. I'm currently working towards a small business, but I have plenty of time on my hands with my flexible hours. I will be your best friend if you want to plan dog-sitting in advance or a scheduled dog walking (ex: every Mon, Tues, Weds). Disclaimer: I often spend time in Indiana with my fiancé, but it is no problem to get back to Missouri when I am scheduled on Rover, as Missouri is my home base. If you want someone to make your animal feel special, please keep me in mind. I have enthusiastically attended a hamster's birthday party, and that is the energy I'd put into your animal. I also personally have experience with golden retrievers, labs, mini aussies, siberian cats, etc. I would love to teach your dog new tricks or just cuddle and play with them. I hope to care for your animal(s), and provide excellent communication and service for both the animal and owner! I'm currently spending most of my time in Weldon Spring, MO planning my wedding and starting a small business. I spend about 8 days in Indiana every month to visit my fiancé, but those travel dates are very flexible and I can drive back as needed (4.5 hours away). I don't currently offer boarding services as I'm back in the family home, but I will be offering those as soon as I get a home. Stay tuned! If I'm in your home, I am following your rules. If I ever have a question of what is allowed, I will contact you. I will also be sure to ask many questions at our meet and greet to make sure your animal and I play with your rules. Consistency is key, and I will happily reinforce that with your animal.

I’m home for the summer and I can sit or walk pets at various times throughout the week. I do have a somewhat flexible schedule with work and can work around and care for any pets at different times of the week.

I also make sure that I am safely caring and looking out for the pets on walks as well to ensure the best care needed.

About: Hello! I’m Lauren, I’m dedicated and experienced on‑site pet sitter and walker providing exceptional in‑home visits tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience working with animal of all ages, including newborns and seniors needing medication administering.I ensure comfort, accuracy, and peace of mind for both pets and their owners. My services include walks for both small and large dogs, tailored to their need. Serviced include home sitting as well. I work full time, but am available for dog walking late afternoons and evenings. Depending on location, I can do drop ins mid day. For onsite services where staying in-home is necessary, I am available every day of the week. I do not offer pet-care in my home. When caring for pets in their home as a guest, I make sure expectations are clear and rules are followed. I am available by phone anytime day or night when caring for your pets.
About: I have grown up around all kinds of dogs including labs, golden retrievers, doodle mixes, lots of small-dog breeds, and I also have had 4 dogs myself including 2 puppies within the last 3 years! I am an extremely responsible and caring person who genuinely wants the best for your pets while you are away! When I come to take care of, walk, and play with your dog I will dedicate my time to loving on them. Providing safe and reliable care is my biggest priority while taking care of your fur baby! I am on my summer break, so aside from training for soccer I am available all for your pets! I am extremely flexible with times and my priority is keeping your pets in their routine that they know and love! I also accept last-minute bookings if needed! I use whatever leash or harness that your pet is most familiar and comfortable with, as well as keeping up with anything that they need in their life to thrive!
About: Growing up in a home with multiple dogs, a cat, and many small animals at once I can now provide the best care for your loved ones. I am currently attending Maryville University where I am majoring in interior design and minoring in business administration while also running track. I am looking for a flexible schedule where I can help support pet owners in the area, while also getting the opportunity to be around animals since I can’t have my own. I can handle many situations based on your wants/ needs whether that’s letting your dogs out into an electric fence or taking them on walks. I also know how to make sure your pets are safe and secure when leaving your home.
“Will continue to book with Dani! She responds quickly and definitely goes above and beyond for my boy! She sends lots of updates and keeps me informed. Dani is great! I highly recommend.”
“Angela and Eli were great with my dog while I was away! My pup can be a little hesitant to warm up to strangers but had no problems with them. Angela was communicative and sent updates while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Kennedy was great. The pups loved her and seemed very happy. She was on time and stayed extra time to play with them a bit longer and feed them and took them back out. I would definitely use her again in the future. Yay!!”
About: I have lived my whole life with dogs and I am currently a Dog Mom of 1. I have experience with many different breeds and sizes, including a summer job at a local dog + owner fitness facility and volunteering at stray rescue in STL. My pet is also a rescue, so I have experience working with dogs who need a little extra care and comfort. 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 dog parent feel at peace, knowing your dog is being well taken care of. I work a full time job, but I do have the ability to work from home when needed and a flexible lunch break. I am mostly free between 7:00-8:30 AM or 6:00-9:00 PM M-F, but I am also available during lunch hours (11:00AM-2:00PM) and weekends upon request. It is important to me that I get to know both you and your pet! I want everyone to feel safe and sound during appointments. For first-time customers: I am available for phone or video calls prior to the booking date, as well as in person meet and greets (when scheduled in advance). Afterwards, we can discuss communication preferences during visits and, if requesting regular care, what days/times you would like to book in the future.
About: My husband and I have had 2 dogs for ten years and recently adopted a senior dog. We trained the younger dogs ourselves and they are the best part of our day. I have a caretaking job that keeps me busy Tuesday through Thursday, 9 to 5. I am still available for overnights any night of the week, morning and evening drop ins Tuesday through Thursday and all drop ins Friday through Monday. I love my rover job and would do it full time if possible. I am patient and kind with animals and truly enjoy them. I walk my dogs regularly and make them fresh dog food. My older dog took 4 pills every morning before we had to send her over the rainbow bridge.

“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 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!!”
“Rachel and her family took such good care of Opal, I couldn’t recommend them enough! I felt very comfortable knowing they treated her like their own.

We will definitely use Brandon again in the future, Moto had a great time!"”
“Zadee and her family were AWESOME! We had to book last minute due to our normal daycare closing right before a trip. Zadee was understanding, very flexible, and worked with us to make sure that we could drop-off/pick-up at times that worked for us. We received great pictures every day and I know our dog had a great time while he stayed with her and her family. Zadee was also able to work with our dog while he was going through heartworm treatment. She gave him medication twice a day and made sure he followed doctor’s instructions to stay on low exercise. She was great at communicating and responsive any time I messaged her. 10/10!”
