About: I’m excited to begin my pet-sitting journey, as I’ve always had a nurturing spirit and love for our four legged friends! While I didn’t grow up with pets in my home, I had the joy of dog sitting for family friends and raising several dogs on my own, including one I welcomed home straight from the kennel. Raising Bruno was especially lovely because he felt like my first child. It wasn’t just the potty training and feedings that made the experience meaningful, but the beautiful bond we built together because one that felt much like a mother’s love for her son. That time in my life meant more to me than words can fully express. With my natural connection with animals, other people’s pets often bond with me quickly. Through daily walks, cuddle time, and attentive care, I’ve learned how to recognize and meet each pet’s unique personality and needs. When I care for a pet, I treat them like family, with patience, reliability, and the same level of love and attention I gave my own. Now that we’re empty nesters, I’d love to care for your pets, giving them the love and care they need while their family is away! Is your pet used to to a 9-5 work schedule? I’m the perfect fit! I work a full time job, Monday-Friday, 8a-4:30p or 9a-5:30p during the week. However, I work only minutes away from home, so on my breaks I can easily check in on our furry friend if they’re staying with me for the week. If I’m watching your pet at your home, I am no more than 2 minutes away from the highway and no more that 20-30 minutes away from everything in the lovely city of St. Louis. After work, whether boarding or house sitting, our furry friend will have my full attention. We will get in some exercise, and then wind down with dinner, Netflix and cuddles of course! Also, I am absolutely flexible on the weekends, so they will be loaded with cuddles and playtime! I offer attentive, personalized pet care tailored to your furry friend’s unique needs, whether care takes place in my home or yours. When pets stay with me, I create a cozy, clean, and safe environment where they can truly feel at home. They’re welcome to get comfortable on the couch, soak up plenty of head and belly rubs, while enjoying a calm, loving space. While I don’t work from home during the day, I’m very present in the mornings, evenings, and throughout the weekends to give your pet the time, attention, and affection they deserve. I have a fenced, nicely sized backyard ready for play and relaxation, along with a walkable, pet-friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for enjoyable walks and fresh air. I do my best to follow your pet’s regular eating, exercise, and potty routine to keep their schedule consistent. I understand how important reliability and familiarity are for pets, and I’m committed to making this a stress-free experience for both you and your beloved companion. We can enjoy on- or off-leash playtime in the backyard or common areas based on your comfort level and preferences. No matter which service you choose, you can trust that your pet will be cared for with the same love, patience, and attentiveness as if they were my own.

About: I genuinely, whole heartedly love animals. Have worked with animals (grooming, walking, feeding) since 15, work with young & senior also give meds & arthritis massages. Patient, kind, loving and ready to spread my love for animals. Have worked at Kennelwood, No Leash needed, Camp Bow Wow and volunteer at the humane society. All animals deserve love. I'm currently free any time as I'm in between jobs and make my own schedule so a lot of time to be with the doggos & cats. I'm available to house sit or pop in for walks at anytime and weekends after 9am. If you have toys or treats I will keep them entertained and work with whatever training goals you have for them. If a tail isn’t wagging it’s my goal to get it to!

About: I have taken care of animals since I was about six years old. I always watched neighbor's animals and cared for them as well as family and friends. I have no issues with giving medications orally to an animal and getting them their exercise in a backyard, going for a walk, or even going to the dog park to go have fun. My goal in life is to pursue a career working with animals while caring for my children. I am currently working 9-5 while I am going through college. Tuesdays, I am not available from 2 PM to 315, but before and after that I am available. I am also available before work and after work to care for your pets. I am comfortable with using a dog lead if your pet requires it or just taking them on a walk if you do not have a fenced in backyard. If you have animals that have separate foods, I am perfectly willing to separate them in different locations in order for them to eat their own as I have to do this with my cats given 2 of them have urinary issues.

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ pups of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve looked after everything from 14-week-old puppies to senior rescues. I’ve also worked with dogs who need medication, have special needs like blindness or anxiety, or just have tons of energy to burn. I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and personalized care — as if they were my own. As a full-time student with a light class schedule — just a few hours in the evenings Monday through Thursday — I’m available nearly all day, every day. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent care, timely check-ins, and plenty of attention for your pup throughout the day. When boarding dogs in my home, I provide a peaceful, dog-friendly space where your pup can relax and feel at ease. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that's perfect for regular walks and sniff breaks. I maintain a consistent routine, supervise playtime, and ensure your dog always has a cozy spot to rest — just like they would at home. Being welcomed into someone’s home to care for their pet is a responsibility I take seriously. I’m clean, respectful, and always follow care instructions closely. I create a calm, safe environment for each dog, keep communication open with regular updates, and do everything I can to make sure both you and your pup feel secure and supported.

“Naja was pleasant and Chaos was his usual self around her. She was open to me being an helicopter mom. XL furbabies can be very intimidating.”

“Bethany was wonderful with my dog, Nova. They had a great walk together and Nova didn't pull her like she does me. Bethany is very kind, helpful and enjoys being with my dog. I appreciate her very much.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 and have experience with all sizes—from tiny Chihuahuas to big breeds like German Shepherds and Presa Canarios. I’m confident handling high-energy pups, gentle with seniors, and patient with shy or stubborn personalities. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, or meds, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pup like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! 🐾 Mondays & Wednesdays: Early Morning and Afternoon 🐾 Tuesdays & Thursdays: Early mornings 🐾 Fridays: Limited availability, Mornings Preferred 🐾 Saturdays: Evenings after 5 PM 🐾 Sundays: Available all day I’m happy to work with your schedule when I can, so feel free to reach out with any questions! While I don’t currently offer overnight boarding, I do have a fenced-in backyard where my dogs love to run and play—it’s a great space for safe outdoor time! As for my cat, she’s not a fan of the outdoors, but I still make sure she gets enrichment and movement by taking her on walks when she’s in the mood. I’m all about giving pets what they need to feel happy, safe, and comfortable.

About: I have successfully cared for 4 litters of 8-12 puppies. I currently own three. American Staffshord Terriers, Azul is 7 years of age and Bonnie is 6 years old and Deuce is 3 years old. I have trained 4 adult dogs. I have my dogs on insurance plans through Banfield Hospital, allowing me to gain knowledge from the vets in attendance and apply the knowledge with my dogs daily. I have dealt with an aggressive dog once and though it was challenging, we made great strides together with the assistance of the dogs parents. The outcome of working with Sebastian and his mom was that Sebastian had become more sociable allowing him to attend doggy play dates, go out to the dog park, and walk with out any issues with other dogs. I currently work overnight, so the first few hours I’m home I tend to my dogs, let them out to the backyard once I’m in and situated, feed them, back out to the yard and then for a walk. Do some quick daily commands & then I sleep and repeat prior to going into work for the evening. On my off days it’s the same routine, but more training and yard time. I would be walking dogs so I would tend to the dogs as instructed or if asked for pointers I would work with the dog and see what works best for that dog in particular and share that knowledge with the parents.

“I was very happy with her services for the 5 days. My pets loved her. Then this evening I wanted to book her for 2 more days. She accepted this & I paid for the additional days. THEN SHE CANCELLED WITHOUT ANY EXPLANATION WHATSOEVER!!! So I will be Leary to hire her again.”

About: I am an animal lover who has grown up with and cared for dogs my whole life. I am a college student, majoring in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation. This has given me experience caring for many different kinds of animals such as songbirds, small mammals, and reptiles. My biggest passion in life is caring for animals, and I would love to care for your dogs!! I am currently home from college for the summer, and have plenty of time to care for your dog. While there are specific dates that I will be unavailable, I have a very free and flexible schedule outside of those dates. I know all dogs have different personalities and needs. I am happy to do whatever is necessary to make sure your dog is comfortable and happy.

About: I have been providing pet care personally and professionally since I was in high school. When I started, I genuinely just loved being around animals and wanted a way make an income while doing something I enjoyed. Years later and I still hold the same sentiment. My family and I have always welcomed dogs and cats into our homes and cared for them as additional kids in the household. I took a break from pet care to focus on building myself and my goals, but now as a homeowner of three years, I want to extend my home and services again to your fur babies. I work full-time, 100% remotely from home for a law firm located in Pennsylvania. I am always at home, especially during the weekdays, with my five pets. I have a flexible schedule and can arrange my work day accordingly. I am able to work with you and your pet's needs, so just communicate with me! I have a 0.3 acre fenced yard that my two dogs absolutely love to race around in. They get great exercise out there and are able to release their high energy. I am attuned to my animal's needs and provide a lot of supervision and care since I am usually at home. The same way that I would treat my own pets/home is exactly how I would treat and respect yours. I am reliable, punctual, and compassionate.

“She is absolutely amazing with my pup! she is timely and great with communication. My dog looks forward to his weekly walks with her! She even brings her super sweet pup with her and provides socialization for him. If you need a walker she’s the one!”

About: The last 20 years I haven’t gone without a dog or cat in my home. I wouldn’t imagine one without! I have my babygirl German Sheppard named Maggie, my 5 month old golden boy named Teddy, and my old man kitty named Frank! These 3 are my world. I am always a go-to for friends and family when they need a quick drop in to be fed or walked or a sleepover for a few days! Whether your pet wants a day filled with frisbee and pool time or snuggles on the couch I’m your gal! Part time student and part time working! I have a good amount of free time throughout the day due to my very flexible online school schedule and work schedule. I live around 2-3 large parks with trails and plenty of wide open space for walks and playtime. Whether your pet wants more playtime with toys inside and outside or just cuddles on the couch I am beyond ready for either one.

About: I’ve been dealing with animals literally my whole life. I went to a technical school and I worked at a doggy daycare for 4yrs.Dogs are my passion/therapy. Im trying to save up enough to continue my education. I’m currently working as a part time dog groomer Mondays/Fridays, a little busier after holidays . I’m still available to do check ins every 2-4hrs for potty breaks on those days. My home is very spacious, plus I have a dog park within walking distance. I prefer dogs that’s kid friendly as I do have a toddler.
