“Lyanne and her husband Eddie were wonderful caretakers for my dog Squish. I had been working in the area and needed someone to sit him that I could trust. They took responsible precautions introducing him to their other dogs and had partitioned off their home so they could control introductions. They sent videos and photos regularly which calmed me. My dog has special needs and doesn’t warm to new people right away and he just loved them. Highly recommend!”


About: I am a recent graduate from Washington University in St. Louis. I now work at an all girls boarding school working in the dorms. The girls and I can’t wait to care for your pet/s! I love going on walks personally. I will happily take your pets with me! I also majored in English Literature, so I read a lot in my free time. Like I said, I spend most of my day reading or watching TV. I am heavy on the search for a job, so I will be spending my days on the laptop revising cover letters!

“Daniela took exceptional care of my fur-baby, keeping me up to date with beautiful pictures and messages. I recommend her 100% 😀 Thank you Daniela, you are the pet sitter I always needed.”



“Annie takes a special interest in your dog. You can tell right away that she has been working with dogs all her life. She is caring and has thought through the what your dog needs during their stay. I really appreciate having this connection in an area where I may need future stays for my labradoodle.”


“We recently booked boarding for Our dog JJ with Jadyn. She was incredible, she provided us with daily updates about JJ. JJ and Jadyn’s dog Gigi got along really well with JJ. We were happy to see that JJ was enjoying his little vacation. When we pick him up he was so happy, clean. We definitely love how organized Jadyn was. We would definitely love to rebook with Jadyn in the future.”


“Bobby was excellent, we went away for a week and Bobby stayed at our home. He remained in constant contact with me and sent multiple pictures of our dogs. When we got home from vacation our house was just as clean as we left it. Bobby respected our home and if he is around next time we need a sitter we will be using him again!”


“David and his wonderful family are the definition of “above and beyond” when watching our pup Eleanor! He took very special care to provide enrichment, exercise, and to make sure all of her needs were met. He kept diligent notes for us, was an excellent communicator, and was clearly so invested in the health and happiness of our pup. He even sent us home with a couple of treats he’d found out she liked! He’s absolutely wonderful and I cannot recommend him enough.”


“Communicative, friendly, and flexible. Camry had an amazing time playing with all the other animals on the property. I couldn’t have asked for a better place for my dog to stay I definitely would book again”


“Laurie took amazing care of Oscar during his stay with her. He pulled a muscle while playing and she was incredibly communicative with me about how he was doing, taking him to my vet to be checked out, and keeping me posted on his improvement. I hated having to be away from him while he went through that but she put all my worries at ease.”

“Happy with Leah’s care of our pup while we were away for 5 nights. She sent us videos and pics, and even had other pups over for playtime. We felt comfortable Sophie was in good hands and would leave her with Leah again.”


“What a pleasure it was having Krystal watch our dog! She was so nice and communicated so well through our dog’s stay with her. First time using her and would absolutely be using her again!”


“Candace is absolutely amazing! She boarded my dog Lou in her home and took such wonderful care of her. From the moment we met, I could tell Candace had a kind and gentle disposition, which instantly put me at ease. She was communicative throughout the entire stay, providing thoughtful updates and letting me know how Lou was doing. At pick-up, she shared even more details, which I really appreciated. If you’re looking for someone who is loving, easy to talk to, responsive, and incredibly responsible, Candace is the one. I’m so grateful to have found her!”


About: With our puppy, you dog will have plenty of exercise and playtime. We have a spacious home and flexible schedule for pet care. I work various hours and my partner works from home. We have a yard for the dogs and separate basement area for boarding comfortably (or to keep our cat away from non-friendly dogs). We enjoy the dog park with your permission and spend a lot of time outside during the warm months. I work 12-5 so we go to the park before or after. Our dog is young and energetic so he needs it. Potty breaks are often during the day in our yard. The dogs are rarely left home for more than a few hours. We have crates for our dogs, special areas for the cat to stay safe, and a basement for boarding other dogs comfortably. Our goal is to give our clients a better experience than if they were in a crated boarding facility all day.

Vails Gate dog parents share their Rover experiences
Shannon and her family are the absolute best! I could actually relax and enjoy my trip knowing my pup was getting spoiled silly with beautiful walks, snuggles, and lots of attention. He looked soooo happy in every picture sent (Shannon sends them every day so you can check in) and he was tired and happy when we picked him up. This is our second time visiting Shannon and I knew it would be good when Maverick started squeaking with excitement as soon as we turned into her driveway. We’re so glad to have found her!
