“Great service! Brad is an excellent communicator, and took great care of our dog and home. He kept me up to date and was always fast to reply. Our house was spotless when we returned and he was very tidy (which was also important to us).”


“Our kids (dogs) seem to really love Mary. She was great at sending pictures and keeping us in the loop. We appreicate being able to find someone that cares for our kids as much as we do.”


About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since age 5. My friend's neighbors and family have all trusted me to care for their animals. Including feeding, bathing, & walking. Rover is my fulltime job, I am available Monday through Friday daytime 11:00am-4:00pm & some Sundays in the areas of Ste Genevieve, Perryville, Festus, Bloomsdale,and Farmington. I am open to do day visits and dog walks. Please let me know the Sunday before for the week what you need! This leaves plenty of time for puppy loving! ❤️ I currently have a very gentle loving puppy who loves to play indoors & outdoors. So in my home your dog will have some company 😀 I do not have a fenced in yard which is a challenge so we go on walks in the neighborhood & have a nearby park we enjoy going to so no worries! We have lots of fun and exercise! We play games outside and inside.

“Irene was wonderful! She took great care of our two fur babies while we were gone over the weekend. She stayed at our house to keep the pups company. She sent us updates and pictures, which really helped with us missing our babies so much. On top of how well she treated our pups, she even left the house put together which was wonderful! We highly recommend her. We will definitely be calling her again.”


About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 13 years old. My friends & family have relied on me to care for their pets when needed. I’m currently available for part time! i’ll have plenty of time to play/care for your pets. I’m available for drop-ins and dog sitting at your home! I’m available every other weekend and some days during the week. Just shoot me a text and I’d be happy to see how our schedules align! If you want me to stay overnight that is also an option for Monday-Friday I can easily crate your dog if needed. I’m able to clean up any potty messes. I’m very patient and understanding if your dog isn’t well trained!

“Catelyn is the best sitter. She watched my dog, Louie, over the weekend, and it was clear from the start that he was in the best hands. Louie can be a bit particular, but Catelyn took the time to get to know him, and he absolutely adored her. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. I could tell Louie was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy while I was away.”


“Entrusting someone that you’ve never met with the responsibility of caring for your pets and home while you’re out of town can be daunting but I’m really glad we took a chance on Barclay. Barclay did a super job giving our dog the attention, activity, and level of care that he’s accustomed to. Barclay also did a great job with our chickens and other basic house sitting tasks. Definitely would recommend Barclay and we hope to work with him again!”


About: I have always had at least one animal in my home since I was born. My grandmother showed dogs and I would often help her get them trained and groomed. She was also an amazing professional dog groomer and I spent a large chunk of my time with her and learning from her. I like puppies but I have a love for older dogs. I have experience administering meds and injections. I work part time, on the weekends and I go to college full time. In the summer I work 5 days a week but based on your needs I can fit your furry friend into my schedule. I like to have a little list of things that you would think is important like the vet you want them to go to if your baby gets hurt, a feeding schedule, and anything that you may have concerns about while I stay at your house. I treat all of the animals I watch as they are my own babies and think it’s important to gain the trust of them while at your home, so they feel more comfortable.

About: Hello, my name is Tyler and I have loved being around animals ever since I was a little kid. My father owns a an all natural pet food/grooming business in St. Louis that I would always get to help and still work there sometimes. I loved pet sitting ever since my first job when I was 15 and got to pet sit for my Aunt and Uncle. Ever since then I have loved getting to watch and take care of other people’s fur babies. I am working full time right now Monday- Friday with some Saturdays. With my work schedule I get off at either 4, 4:30 or 5:30 PM which still gives me plenty of time to play and take care of your fur babies! I care for my/your pets with all of the love and care that they could ever need. I always make to to give frequent status updates with the owner


“She did a great job with 3 difficult dogs. She gained their trust and stayed to comfort them. It was our first time leaving them. We recommend her and will use her again if she's available. She's so easy going!”


“Lily was super awesome and would highly recommend. She came to meet my 2 pups before I left for vacation and updated me with pictures while I was gone. Also brought them some extra toys she had and some treats as well as cleaned up some extra messes the dogs had made. Will definitely book her to watch the pups again.”
