Dog Walkers in De Soto, MO

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14. Neighbors, family friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets when they were away. I currently have all the time in the world to help with pets and fur babies. they will have a fenced yard and plenty of activities. I have a fenced yard and a dog off my own for them to play with. If need be I have two levels and large rooms for quiet time or separate play.

“I think Jessica would be a great option for caring for your pet. She has always grown up with animals and has that loving motherly care. She will truly treat your pet as her own for the short time she cares for them. Highly recommended!”

“Alison is so friendly! My dog Bowie was happy to see her today. Great walker!”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets my entire life. I have experience dog-sitting, cat-sitting, dog walking and even some grooming. My passionate love for animals doesn’t vary between small, large, young, or old - I love them all! I work part-time at a vets office in Columbia, IL. I have plenty of weekend availability and very flexible during the week. Please reach out to see if my exact schedule would work for you! My goal is to make your furry friend feel as comfortable as possible with me. I take caution when getting to know a new animal, making sure to give them the time and space they need in order to get to know me.

“Adriana has been my dog walker (and sometimes sitter!) for 3 months now and my Zuko absolutely loves her! She makes sure he is well taken care of and it’s always a treat to have her around. Could not recommend her enough!!”

“In my house, pets are people. They have feelings and needs. I pay attention, and look out for them as they look out for me. Karissa not only gets this concept, it is entirely the way she interacts with other people’s pets. When I go away, and cannot bring pets along, I don’t have to worry about paying a premium just to get an extra bit of time in the outdoors, additional cuddles or treats, or for remote cameras to check on them. I know that Karissa will treat them like I would, and that makes it one less worry to bring along on vacation.”

“I would highly recommend Sarah to look after your pet! She's been letting my dog Dexter out for over a year now. She has always been very accommodating, polite, and reliable. She's very trustworthy and she truly loves and cares for the animals she takes care of. You will not be disappointed with Sarah!”

“We have had Holly house and animal sit for us several times. Holly is very conscientious when it comes to animal care, and is not afraid to ask questions so that she can understand completely what the needs of the animals are when we are gone. She also likes to send text photos of our pets enjoying being in their own home and barn. She is very clean, and the house looks great when we get home! Although we did not require it, she even volunteered to scoop manure and wheelbarrow it out of the horse stall. Holly gets a kick out of observing animal behavior, and is very patient with some of their quirks (like our "persnickety" chihuahua who can be snappish). Our three dogs respond really well to her, and even the chihuahua has come around to letting her cuddle him, and will sleep with her at night. Holly loves our old english sheepdog, and claims that she could pet her for hours. Our feeding regimen for all our various animals can be quite confusing, but Holly has mastered it all. I can't give her enough credit for the effort she puts into the job. I heartily recommend Holly as a responsible, calming, and loving animal caregiver.”

About: I have been around and had dogs since I was born. I have grown up among at least 2 dogs and a cat. I currently have 4 dogs. I currently work a serving job with a schedule that comes out on Saturday’s/ Sunday’s. I am able to be with your pet overnight while you are away and stop by to play before and after work. I can walk, run, hike and play with your dogs as much as needed on a leash or in a play area. I will feed or give medicine if needed.

About: Even as I kid I knew how to treat animals, earning the trust of dogs and cats I was told didn't like people. I've managed to win over shy dogs and wary cats and even a few grumpy creatures. While I'm new to sitting professionally, I've watched the pets of many friends and family over the years, from dogs and cats to rabbits and geckos! As I cannot drive at the moment, my rommate, Maddie, will accompany me on visits I can't walk or bike to. She's also an animal lover and has helped me rescue a litter of kittens who needed somewhere to go At the moment, I've got a pretty open schedule. I also do transcription work and occasional art commissions on the side which allows me to be flexible with my time I'm more than happy to interact with your pets in whatever way they like, be that cuddling on the couch or going on an adventure. Or maybe they prefer their space but don't like to be completely alone. That's alright, too! No matter the case, I'm more than happy to snap some pictures to keep you updated

“Irene is an exceptional dog sitter. Very trustworthy and responsible. She provided me with updates about my babies. I will continue to use Irene in the future.”

“Jennifer was very fast with communicating. She was punctual. My pup was at ease with her. I loved the photos sent of my dog walking in park. I had a tooth removed and was not sure I would be up to walking dog so booked Jennifer. I will rehire her again”

About: I’ve always had a fur baby as a part of my family. Now that my children are grown and away from home, they always tell me that my dog now is my favorite child😅 I’m lucky enough to have a job that gives the freedom of different scheduling options daily. This gives me time for my doggos and yours. As I have a Pit Bull, he can seem scary to those who meet him for the first time. For this reason, I always put on his harness and leash for a walk. He has a couple favorite stops along our way because he makes friends easily.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 15. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, give medicine, and bathe their pets.
