Dog Walkers in Boles, MO

About: I haven't had my own pets in a long time, but I've cared for over a dozen pets that I treated like my own despite belonging to others. I've introduced myself to and won over plenty of pets with my calm and collected approach. The majority of my pet care experience has been through visiting the homes of family friends to give their dogs bathroom breaks and be sure they have some company for a while as their owners are at work or on vacation. On multiple occasions, I've also stayed overnight for multiple days at a time. Because of this, I'm well equipped to meet your pets smoothly and cohabitate with them. I currently work remotely and have plans to attend college online, so I'll have more than enough time to visit at the very least. I can absolutely stay over, as I can simply work wherever I have my laptop if need be. Your pets will always be the first priority, of course. I do not have pets of my own at the moment, but I always treat other people's pets as if they were my own and with respect. If they want attention, they get it. If they want to be left alone, they will be left alone (within reason). Any instructions regarding feeding and medicine will be followed strictly.

About: Hi, I am Rachel. I am a lifelong animal lover, and have a ton of pet care experience. I am comfortable with all ages, breeds, and sizes of dogs, but I know it is very important they are comfortable with me as well! I am happy to meet initially to learn more about your pet and how to best care for them. I look forward to getting to know this member of your family! Pet care is a big part of my daily life, from feeding, walking, and cleaning up after my own pets to caring for friends and family's pets when needed. I adjust my schedule to accommodate for your pets feeding and walking schedule. I will provide whatever care your pet requires such as changing water, cleaning cat boxes, giving oral medication, ect.

About: My friends tell me that I am an animal whisperer haha! I love the company of an animal and giving it all of my love! I used to have a dog of my own, we were best friends, but unfortunately he passed away a few years ago. I’m not at the best spot in my life to have my own pet again so I wanted to find a way to still love on animals and have their presence! I currently have a full time job in St. Louis. I am available to WFH if I need to watch your pet(s) during the week!! More than happy to do so :) We have a very large yard/field behind my home but it is not fenced. I will be sure to have your puppy on a leash if need be!!! We also live in a neighborhood, off of the main road in town. I am also available to watch them in STL as I have family that live there!

“Andrea did a wonderful job walking Greta. She is always very reliable. We have such a peace of mind knowing that our dog is in good hands while we’re away. Thanks!”

I have currently two dogs of my own and in the past have had cats guinea pigs, and other animals that have lived long happy healthy lives. I’m very reliable and dependable, and I would love to care for your pets! I’m currently only working part time which gives me lots of time with your pets I can do Monday's through Fridays from 8:30 to 4:30 but that is flexible if needed! I currently have two female dogs, both spayed, very energetic and love to play and would love to give your pup company unfortunately I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I am very good at keeping my attention on the dogs at all times your pets would be very safe and looked after

“Raegan did a fantastic job walking Harry for the week. She's friendly and attentive, I highly recommend her if you live in the area!”

“Audrey is fabulous! She helped me out on short notice when the sitter I set for a week cancelled on me. Luna loved her right away! She sent great updates & pictures for each walk this week! Even on the last day, which was rainy, she took Luna on a shorter walk & then played with her keeping her company. I was in Washington, MO this week working at the hospital & I am sad that I won’t get to book Audrey again in the future!”

About: From personal experience, I have had a dog for about 8 years now. Full pit bull and I love him dearly. I only have one, but am thinking about another. With new dogs I don’t know I am always gentle to start until they get to know me. I’m currently working part-time at Sarah’s on Central and typically work Thursday-Sunday. Starting in August I will be attending Maryville University as well. In my home, I only have one dog who honestly does get spoiled to death but he loves it that way. If I’m home all day I will take him out every 2-3 hours just to make sure he is all good and everything and if able will go with your dog as well unless less time is needed.

About: I have had past experience working at a Vet clinic where I have walked, given medication to, and interacted with multiple dog breeds of all different ages and needs. I have also taken care of a variety of animals for family members and friends for over 5 years. In addition, I have had many household pets of my own since I was 5 years old that I have cared and loved for. My work schedule is very flexible right now so I will be able to spend plenty of time caring for your furry family members! I can dog walk any day of the week, primarily in the mornings and afternoons. I have a flexible schedule when it comes to dog-sitting, I just ask for about a week in advance heads-up so I can work things out with you and my work schedule. I care for all pets with love and respect. I understand that they are not just pets, but family members too and deserve the same love, care, and treatment. I maintain a healthy pet-place environment to ensure the safety of your beloved pets. If needed, I am more than willing to follow any strict schedules or regimens to make sure your furry family member is comfortable, healthy, and feels safe within their own home.

About: I’ve had my dog Teddy for three years, and my cat Squash for two. I love animals of all kinds and have been asked by family and friends since a young age to help them take care of animals. I’m gentle with touch but firm with my voice, love to train and spoil them, and adore going on walks. Your pets will be in good hands with me My schedule is really open right now, so I’m available for whatever your pet may need. I understand how important schedules can be, which is why I like being flexible. I’m very good at making sure that all the necessary tasks are met first when I get into the house, then if I’m allowed to, I usually try and spend a little time with that animal to gain their trust.

About: I’ve been in a dog household for as long as I can remember, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. From feeding and walking to playtime and giving them lots of attention, I’m very comfortable handling dogs and making sure they feel happy and safe. Being around dogs daily growing up has helped me understand their different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I’m also a very active person, which makes dog walking something I truly enjoy. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, a longer energy-burning outing, or just some companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to provide it. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time, so I can give your dog the attention and care they deserve. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels comfortable, exercised, and loved while in my care. I treat every dog like they’re my own and want both you and your pet to feel confident and at ease. I’m currently a student at a local university, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I typically have classes from 10 AM to 1 PM on most weekdays, but outside of that time I have plenty of availability for dog walks, drop-ins, or pet care. I’m usually free in the mornings before class, afternoons after 1 PM, and evenings. Because I have a lighter schedule outside of class, I’m able to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m happy to work with owners to find times that best fit their dog’s routine and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow any instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any specific care your pet may need. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection during visits. Whether that means going for a walk, playing with their favorite toys, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level. I also understand how important communication is for pet owners, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and doing well. I will always treat your home and your pets with respect and care.

“Amazing service. Extremely courteous and most importantly my son took to her positive energy immediately. He's happy and I'm extremely relieved to know he's in great hands😊”
