About: I grew up with dogs all my life-big and small. I love all animals and have had many different animals including snakes, tarantula, birds, cats other reptiles and of course dogs throughout my life. My friends have told me that I should work with animals because of my knowledge, how I teach and take care of animals. Friends come to me for advice about their animals. Not only do I love and respect animals I genuinely love and respect nature and the world. I'm retired so I have time for my animals and your animal babies too. Most of my time is spent with my grandsons and Anakin; my dog, outside doing yardwork or in one of many parks in St Louis. I walk my dog in my yard on leash or walk to the park down the street from my house, weather permitting. I can walk your dog the same way or come to your house to take care of your animal baby. I'm retired/disabled and have one dog to take care of at the moment. I'm at home most of the time so I have time and love for other people's pets too. The only other thing that keeps me busy are my 3 youngest grandsons who also love animals and I teach them to respect and to be kind to animals. *If you need a service but see in my calendar I'm not available you can message me because most of the days I'm not available is usually only for 3 to 4 hours during that day and I could possibly be available for what you need* I have one bird and I keep his cage clean, change his water regularly and make sure he has food. I have one dog at home that I take out on leash in my front yard, walk him as many days a week as possible to the park directly down the street from my house, I rub his belly, give him treats when he's a good boy and play with him with his toys. All the stuff I do for my animals, I would do for your animals as well.
About: I’ve been taking care of different pets since the age of 11. I have been trusted by more than 10 different families to take care of their pets. I am currently doing online school so I have plenty of free time to take care of everyone’s lovely pets during any weekday and any weekend. I have 1 fur baby. She often loves playing outside for hours on end. I have plenty of toys, plenty of fence for her to run around, and a wonderful environment for her.

About: Hello! My name is Savannah and I am a 24 year old working momma to a 2 year old lil boy! I’ve been caring for my own dogs & cats for 7+ years and would love to spread the love to your furry friend! In my home I have a Siberian Husky named Stormie and a German Shepherd Mix named Drama. (Plus a few kitties) My dogs love other animals and have prepared me for dogs with insane energy levels as well as senior dogs. I focus on making sure your dogs/cats stay hydrated, fed and happy. I also work with puppies who are still being potty trained & kittens. I also come to you! I can care for your pups of kitties in your home with all the same fun. I work full time Monday-Friday. I accept day time bookings on Saturday & Sundays, and evening bookings during the week. I am flexible though so I can work with other schedules if they align well! I have a large fenced in yard, I have several eating & relaxing spots, several water bowls, I also have experience in pet sitting in client’s homes as well and am extremely comfortable doing so & coordinating the best activities for your pet!
About: Hey! Hanana here for your pet and your pet needs. Ask me about your pet if you’d like more insight into the mind of your lil girl or boy. I work with pets full time! Am pretty flexible with my timeline. Pet care is what I do. Additionally I’m a pet photographer! But that’s a side gig. I live in an apartment and could host your pet at my apartment as needed. We have a dog park in our backyard and easy access to a park for entertainment.
About: I was raised by a vet tech of 20 years to love and respect animals as much as humans. I love animals and know that any strong relationship is founded on love and trust, and I promise to give your pets the same level of love you would! I work part time mornings in a breakfast restaurant usually from 8-3, but hours can vary slightly. If they vary. 8-3 are the longest my hours are but sometimes they are shorter. I work weekends and the days during the week can vary. Dogs must be able to be at home alone that long because I am unfortunately unable to stop by mid day to let them out on days that I work. Feel free to message me and we can discuss schedules to determine if we will be a good fit for each other. I can stay over night with your pets to guarantee safety. I am extremely careful when traveling through doors to avoid possible escape and ensure doors are securely latched behind me as well.
