“This was my first time using the service and I was apprehensive about it but Gabrielle was great about reassuring me and giving updates and sending photos. She was quick to respond to any message I sent. I will definitely use her again. She even was concerned about an insect bite that I had on my foot and offered to keep Nova extra for me to go to the doctor. Great young lady.”


“Shannon was fantastic! She communicated well with us while she watched our boy! She sent pictures to show he was doing fine! We felt at total ease leaving our “kid” in her care… she welcomed doing a meet and greet earlier in the week ( at our request) to introduce our dog to her to before dropping him off later that week. She was very accommodating with our drop off/pickup since we were flying somewhere. Will definitely use her again and recommend to her to other pet parents!!!”


“Lucy was great! Excellent communication both before and during our dog’s stay. We highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a nice and comfortable place to stay in St. Louis.”


“Jenna was amazing. She kept our Roger for a weekend on very short notice. Very welcoming and shared lots of pics of our lil guy having a great time. Definitely recommend Jenna.”


“Highly recommend! Our shih tzu is adopted from a puppy mill and is a little quirky. He loved Mary and we could tell she took the time to get to know him and make him comfortable! Charlie had a great vacation at Mary’s!”


“Uno was in great hands! All the updates with pictures and videos were comforting to know he was okay while we were out of town. No issues and he even met a new friend :) Thanks again!”


“My puppy had so much with Laura. She sent pictures and updates every day. Laura responds very quickly to inquiries both before and during boarding. I have already booked another stay a few weeks from now. Very pleased with my first time using a dog sitter.”


“Fergie had a blast Smokey!! Laronna has the perfect set up for watching Fur babies with a fenced in yard and doggie door. She loved on Fergie with plenty of pictures of Said spoiling. Thanks Laronna!”


“Julia took amazing care of my dog for over 3 weeks strait while I was away on travel. So happy my pup had a great home to spend time at while I was away.”


“Damica did great with Chewy! She was very responsive and always kept us updated about how he was doing. We had travel issues and she was very accommodating and helped us extend the stay! Would definitely use her services again!!”


“Theron did an amazing job with our dog! Leo isn’t always the easiest around other dogs — most don’t take to him, but Mani was so great with him, and they actually got along and played together! That’s a rare win for Leo, and it really speaks to the Theron’s calm, capable energy. We also appreciated the regular photo updates — it was such a comfort to see Leo happy and in good hands. Meds were given without issue, and everything went smoothly. We’ll definitely be booking again!”


“I am so glad we found Kelley. She took great care of our Saffy and I can tell she was well loved while we were gone. It was great to get pictures from her and see the fun Saffy was having.”



“My handsome 10 yr old Great Dane mix has regained his youth over these last few weeks with Ebony. Made me feel good that he was able to enjoy himself so much and make a few friends and girlfriends ?”


“Jennifer is a wonderful sitter! My pup Auggie had a great time with her and her pups. She sent lots of pics and just the right amount of communication. She took excellent care of Auggie! Thank you Jennifer!”


“Katie was phenomenal and loved our Taz as if he was her own! We got lots of photos and updates and reassurance that he was adjusting well to his long stay with her. I definitely recommend Katie and will be rebooking!”


“I had a great experience communicating with Sherry and LaTia. Rhu came back happy, drop-off and pick-up were fluid, and they sent a photo halfway through. Would book again!”
