“Cynthia was so great with our dogs! Her calm demeanor was the perfect balance for my two excitable dogs, and they clearly felt at ease with her. She provided timely updates with pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She left the house exactly as she found it—clean and well-organized. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable dogsitter.”


“Tess was great with our dog and very reliable! She also helped us out with getting some packages for us that were delivered while we were out of town. I would definitely recommend her services!!”


“I had Tori stay with my three cats - two of whom aren’t integrated with the third. She paid attention to my directions about that and was in contact a lot during the weekend. I really appreciated her attention to detail and willingness to give my girls cuddles. And she cleaned up after herself. Definitely recommend.”


“Asia did a great job caring for my fur babies! She did great with applying ointment and giving extra care to my dog while she was in a cone (a last-minute change after our meet and greet 🥴). She kept me updated with daily photos. Thanks, Asia!”

“Lawrence took great care of our dog and house while we were away— would definitely recommend him! Our dog is often anxious around new people but she liked him pretty much immediately.”


About: Hi! My name is Kavita and am a 3rd year law student at Washington University School of Law here in St. Louis! I’ve loved dogs since I was a kid and was lucky to grow up around them. I have a dog of my own (a small Havanese toy poodle named Mildred), and I’m experienced in taking care of dogs of all ages! You can rest easy knowing your pet will be in loving, capable hands. I’ll treat them like my own, with plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’m always happy to send photo updates so you feel connected while you’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I know how to keep them safe, happy, and relaxed. Plus, my building has a secure dog park—perfect for fun, exercise, and fresh air! I’m home most days of the week, live right by Forest Park and go on numerous daily walks and runs. I’m happy to flex my walks around the doggo’s needs! I have a clean and safe apartment with plenty of natural light. My building has a massive dog park that is secure and clean as well. My dog and I go down there all the time to play, get fresh air and socialize with other dogs in our building!

“Julia was great! She made sure to send pictures and updates while she watched the dogs. She made me feel comfortable knowing my dogs were being watched. Will 100% be using her in the future!”


“Megan was awesome! My dog can be shy with strangers and she warmed up to Megan right away. Megan is attentive, timely, and great with updates! Hope to book with her again in the future!”


“D'Andra was lovely! She took amazing care of our dog and was super responsive and on it. I loved getting the daily update pictures and videos :) She also left the apartment in great condition and watered our plants - an added bonus!”


“She was simply great! We have 2 fluffy huskies and one is diabetic, which means that has a VERY rigid and strict schedule and also requires injections. Taylor was on point with updates via texts and followed every single direction we have her. Absolutely amazing job! We'll be coming back to her 100%”


“Max was extremely patient and attentive with our senior dog. He left the house clean and Jeffrey was a happy boy when we got home - accident-free! Thanks for keeping Jeffrey calm and relaxed. :)”



About: I have spent two decades pet sitting cats and dogs. In particular, I've given medications (including insulin, pills and liquids) and have a lot of experience with senior pets. Overall, I just want your pet to feel safe and loved. I work part time so that I have time to dedicate to pet sitting. I make sure that your pet is my priority when they're under my care. Each situation is unique and I learn what makes your pet feel safest and most secure. I learn their routines and make sure to follow instructions. That way the transition is easiest for them.

“Hannah was an absolute gem as our house sitter during our trip to Aruba. Hannah took incredible care of our three cats and our Australian Cattle Dog, managing the tricky task of keeping 2 of our cats separated with ease. Our dog adored the daily games of fetch, and it was clear from all the photos and videos Hannah sent that all our pets were receiving so much love and attention. The frequent updates put my mind at ease, making this my first guilt-free vacation as a pet parent. I came home to happy, well-cared-for animals. I can’t recommend Hannah enough—reliable, attentive, and truly has a way with animals. We’ll definitely be booking Hannah again!”


About: My whole life, I've provided care and love to a series of five lovable golden retrievers and numerous other dogs. I've promoted their health through frequent walks and exercise, given comfort to them through play and cuddles, and have paid the utmost attention to their needs. I taught one of my family's current goldens to obey commands when he was a puppy and helped the other to overcome his fear of swimming through gentle encouragement and coaxing. I will provide all this experience to ensure your dogs enjoy their time! I'm currently a PhD student at WashU and so have the majority of my availability in the evenings and weekends. Weekends are best, especially considering the rigors of the school year. My philosophy with pet care is to be gentle but fair. I will go along with the pet's needs for the majority of the time and encourage their development through correction of their behaviors, when necessary. This correction will be done through verbal warnings just strong enough to get the message across, without being overly hostile.

About: I have spent time around dogs, big and small, my whole life! I am particularly well-versed in big dogs over 100 pounds as I have been taking care of two Saint Bernards for the last few years. Also, I am comfortable with all levels of training! I am currently working a part-time job in the evenings on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. During the week, I am free until 3pm, and I am very flexible on the weekends! Although I do not offer in-home services, I will always treat your pets and home as if it were my own! I pride myself in filled water bowls and happy animals! I will help keep you animals safe and your home clean!

“Chris stayed at my house for three days to watch my two boys. It can be unsettling to have someone you don't know stay in your home but Chris left me feeling at ease upon meeting her for our first introduction. She is very good at staying in touch with many updates and pictures. I look forward to working with her again for some future plans we have scheduled.”

About: Hi! I’m Olivia 🐾 I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter who loves making tails wag! I have experience with dogs and of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every pet like part of my family. I look forward to meeting your pets and giving them all the love and care they deserve! I work many part time jobs right now but am available most weekday mornings and evenings. Would love to assist on weekends I’m available as well! I absolutely love dogs and giving them all the cuddles they deserve! My goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and incredibly loved in your home. I’ll provide plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles, and make sure their routine with meals, walks, and any special needs is followed carefully. Your furry friend will be treated like family, and I promise to care for them with love and dedication every step of the way!

“Cecille made an otherwise challenging process so effortless by being available with very little notice and by being communicative and flexible in making arrangements. Throughout the process, she was willing to go above and beyond my expectations to make sure my fur child was cared for, and in doing so, provided such valuable peace of mind. Cecille, thank you so much for your time and kindness!”
