House Sitting Villa Ridge

“Andrea is a true jewel! She is punctual, efficient, and organized, She took very good care of our two dogs who are large and energetic. They were obviously comfortable with her and we had no worries about them while we were out of town and she was with them in our home. I have complete confidence in her and found her most trustworthy and it is readily apparent that she loves animals. I would definitely use her again and have no hesitation in recommending her if you need a pet sitter.”

About: I haven't had my own pets in a long time, but I've cared for over a dozen pets that I treated like my own despite belonging to others. I've introduced myself to and won over plenty of pets with my calm and collected approach. The majority of my pet care experience has been through visiting the homes of family friends to give their dogs bathroom breaks and be sure they have some company for a while as their owners are at work or on vacation. On multiple occasions, I've also stayed overnight for multiple days at a time. Because of this, I'm well equipped to meet your pets smoothly and cohabitate with them. I currently work remotely and have plans to attend college online, so I'll have more than enough time to visit at the very least. I can absolutely stay over, as I can simply work wherever I have my laptop if need be. Your pets will always be the first priority, of course. I do not have pets of my own at the moment, but I always treat other people's pets as if they were my own and with respect. If they want attention, they get it. If they want to be left alone, they will be left alone (within reason). Any instructions regarding feeding and medicine will be followed strictly.

About: Hi, I am Rachel. I am a lifelong animal lover, and have a ton of pet care experience. I am comfortable with all ages, breeds, and sizes of dogs, but I know it is very important they are comfortable with me as well! I am happy to meet initially to learn more about your pet and how to best care for them. I look forward to getting to know this member of your family! Pet care is a big part of my daily life, from feeding, walking, and cleaning up after my own pets to caring for friends and family's pets when needed. I adjust my schedule to accommodate for your pets feeding and walking schedule. I will provide whatever care your pet requires such as changing water, cleaning cat boxes, giving oral medication, ect.

“Loretta took excellent care of Macie while we were away. She is a very professional, friendly, good communicator and most of all a dog lover.”

“Arlene was absolutely fabulous! She sat my three cats and two dogs and handled our zoo with ease. We have a special needs dog and she knew exactly how to care for him. She sent regular pictures and asked questions when needed. Our furbabies were treated like royals. Love love love her! Will definitely be rebooking.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I’ve been taking care of my family’s and neighbors’ pets since I was 15, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I currently own a cat, so I understand the importance of patience, routine, and respecting each pet’s individual personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and relaxed, I take the time to meet their needs and make them comfortable. I treat every pet like they’re my own and prioritize safety, communication, and reliability. I’d love the chance to help care for your furry family member! I’m available for evening care on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. I’m able to check in on pets multiple times throughout the day, depending on their needs. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they’re well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I believe owners know their pets best, so I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walking, medications, routines, and house rules. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, boundaries, and needs to make sure they feel secure and cared for.

About: I have had my own share of dogs. I have taken care of many of other people’s animals and even help them with training like tricks I currently am doing college full time online and looking for fun side hustles to make the day more interesting and filled with laughter and fun. I have two lovely fur babies at home who love dogs and will keep your fur baby company, I love getting out and going on adventures with my dog.

“Madison was an exceptional Caretaker for my elderly cat while I was on vacation. In addition to his basic care and needs, she gave him medication twice daily. She took the time to send daily updates and pictures, that assured me he was in great hands!! I could also see that he greatly enjoyed her company too! She went above and beyond, allowing me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing he was getting the best care and companionship. I will absolutely book again with Madison and I highly recommend her!!!”

About: I have grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve dog sat for family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve helped train my family’s dogs in the past so if there are any reinforcements or cues necessary on walks I’m more than capable of helping to keep a routine! I’m currently full time graduate student, but I have some free afternoons with plenty of time to walk your pets! I am also flexible to do drop ins for potty breaks and evening feedings. I do not have any pets but I can help care for your pet with walks! If there are specific needs your dog requires such as to be crated after walks I am more than willing to follow any directions for making sure your pet is safe and comfortable!

About: I’ve worked at Fox creek Veterinary Hospital for the past 6 months, and i love animals more than anything! I am equipped to handle all different sized dogs from 5-100 lbs! I work at a pet boarding and doggie daycare facility at a veterinary hospital so even when i’m working i can care for your animals needs! My job has 3 large fenced in yards that your dogs can run around and be free in. I can easily crate your fur babies if needed!

About: I’m open to any animals! I grew up in Indiana taking care of dogs, cats, rabbits, sheep, chickens, reptiles, and I find love for all creatures big and small. I work in healthcare and have a need to care for others so let me know how I can help you! I work from 3-11pm but have days off during the week and weekends. I’m flexible during the day and can work with weird schedules. Let me know how I can help. I’ve house sat many times for pets with special needs. I’m aware a common problem with dogs is separation anxiety, even just during work hours! Any special medical needs for your animals or play/exercise needs just send a message.

“Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.”

“Loved her respond and interaction with the pups. Hope to use her all of the time. Thank you”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats and for a period of my childhood even lived on a horse ranch! I have a medical background and am a personable and trustworthy person to care for your pet. I am a full time nurse so I only work three days a week, however I don’t have a regular schedule. Regardless, I have four days out of the week free and would love to fill that time caring for and loving your pet. I am trustworthy and can be relied on to care for your pet with safety in mind first, I will be consistent with your house rules for your pet and will treat them as my own.

About: All my life, I have bonded with both dogs and cats, and animals in general. I have been told that I have an ability to connect with any animal effortlessly. While I have been dog-sitting for friends, family, and others for about four years, I also have worked as a Caregiver at CARE STL, an animal shelter in St. Louis. During my time at CARE, I fed, walked, played, and formed connections with over 100 dogs, as well as cats and other animals. After that, I started working as a server/bartender at Bar-K, to make money while still working in an animal-friendly environment. Since then, I have been a reliable, trusted, and consistent dog-sitter for many clients. The safety and care of any animal is always my biggest priority, and I promise that I will not disappoint! I currently am not working, as I have just recently graduated from Saint Louis University. In other words, I am more often than not, completely available to work anytime on Weekdays and Weekends. However, on June 1st, I will be starting an internship that requires 20 hours a week but my schedule is extremely flexible, as the internship is willing to adjust to whatever schedules I have. Because of my flexible availability, I am able to spend as much time with your fur baby as you would like me to. Whether it be cuddling, playing, or going outside, I will provide all of my attention and services to the care of your animals.
