Dog Walkers in Chesapeake, MO

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid who lived on a little farm. My experience ranges from birds, ferrets, reptiles, & cats, dogs. Animal care has always been something I’m passionate about. I know how important my animals are to me and so I will take the best care of yours while you’re away. I am a full time teacher so pet care is on the evenings most of the time. I can schedule weekends ahead of time and be available all day to let your loved ones outside as needed. During the summer my availability will be wide open! My pets are treated like a member of the family. I think that animals in our care should be shown love and grace because we chose to take care of them.

“Katie is amazing! She came over and helped sooth my new puppy mom anxiety by making sure luna was taken care of, fed, and let out! She stayed to play with luna, which was not necessary, but greatly appreciated!”

About: I have loved dogs since childhood and over the last 11 years I have fostered and adopted senior dogs to give them a forever home. I’m currently home full-time, so your dog will have my full attention, company, and care around the clock. Whether it’s belly rubs, gentle walks, or just relaxing together, I make sure each dog feels at home. I have a secure, pet-friendly home with plenty of space and a calm environment—perfect for seniors, anxious pups, or dogs that just need some extra TLC. I have a big fenced yard with a doggy door so they can come and go as they please. I just lost my senior boxer, Taylor, so it’s just me and my big rescue, Hank, a hound mix. I’ve cared for countless dogs in this home, including special need seniors.

About: I have owned and taken care of pets since I was a child. I love animals! They deserve top notch care and I will provide that to them! I am available in the evenings and weekends. I am flexible and can be available during the day, some. Whatever you need, we will figure it out. I will not just put your fur baby in a crate, I will interact, play, and cuddle with them! While you are away, your pet will be safe and well taken care of.

About: I am local foster through a local rescue. My husband and I both have a passion for dogs and will treat your fur babies like they are our own! We have experience caring for puppies as young as 8 week and seniors. We are comfortable administering medications if needed and are familiar with pups who may have seizures. We don’t have any stairs so there is no need to worry about a senior pup who might have hip issues needing to climb stairs. I work full time and my husband works full time as well. Our schedules are staggered so your pup would be let out first thing in the morning by myself and then my husband will resume until he leaves for work. Midday we have a family member come over and let the dogs go outside and allow them to eat and drink as well as have some time to play. They are never left alone for more than 4-6 hours at a time. The days I’m off I’m home and my husband works from home 2 days a week as well. We have had this routine for over 4 years now with our own personal dogs and there has never been any issues. We had a brand new privacy fence installed on July 12th! We have a half acre back yard so dogs will have plenty of room to run! We will do our best to accommodate any special requests you may have. Please note our home was recently built so our grass is still in the process of growing. There may be days your pet becomes muddy if conditions are rainy. I am happy to provide a bath for your pet for a small additional fee upon request. I also highly recommend doing a meet and greet prior to your stay to ensure your dog will be comfortable with my pets and around the house.

About: I have grown up with a variety of pets and have come to consider them all a part of the family. From Geckos to Hermits, Fish to Frogs, and Cats to Dogs, I've housed a variety and have loved them all to the core! I am particularly familiar with Medium sized dogs, but I am no stranger to the big, the bad, or the snugly. For cats, I can be a bit squeamish when it comes to litter, but that is nothing a mask or a nose clip won't fix! As a full time college student, online classes allow my schedule to be very flexible. My grades are important, but nothing motivates me more than a happy pet and a satisfied customer! As someone who understands that home is a place to escape the daily riff raff, I am willing to keep visits as quick and simple as possible or as long and engaging as preferred. A meet and greet is encouraged so I can better understand the needs of your pet and so that the pet and I can become familiar.

About: I provide reliable, loving, and attentive care tailored to each animal’s unique needs. From daily walks and playtime to administering medications and managing special diets. I treat every pet like family. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or active adventures in the park, your furry friend is in safe, capable hands. I am available for weeknight & weekend care. I have a background in Law Enforcement, and can be trusted with not only your pet, but your home too. I am currently not offering care in my own home, but am available for daily walks, feedings, or stays in your home so you don’t have to worry about your fur baby being displaced!

“Morgan has been wonderful! I was able to get her on fairly short notice and she made sure we were able to do a meet and greet first. She was very friendly and gave lots of attention to my animals. She walked different routes each time with the dogs so they could get new sights and smells! Superb effort and attitude!”

About: I would love to dog sit for you! I have a dog of my own and I’ve helped raise dogs all of my life. I love playing with high energy dogs as well as lounging around with the older ones. I have taken care of many friends and family’s dogs and I enjoy it! I can also help with basic training such as “sit, stay, and shake”. I work a part time job that allows me to have flexibility so I am available anytime with the exception of 2-4 hour jobs that I may have in the mornings/afternoons on some days. You can trust me with your fur babies while you are gone! I love animals and I would never hurt them. I have helped take care of animals my whole life so I can handle tough situations. I am also very responsible in remembering medications that your pet may need and when to feed/ take out to potty/ and play with them.

About: We love dogs! We are called first when any of our friends go out of town. We have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages from older doxies to young mutts and we love large rotties too. We are also okay with special needs dogs and we make sure your dog gets their medications when scheduled. Our lab loves to make new friends with dogs of all sizes. We have a nice privacy fenced in back yard with a kiddie pool to help the dogs keep cool during the summer even though they will spend most of the time inside. Please know that if your pup stays with us he or she will be treated like a part of the family. We love dogs! I help my Dad on his farm only when I'm not scheduled to care for a pup I'm hosting. I'm free to stay at home all day with your pet. I always keep an eye on what's going on. I'm usually outside if our pups are. If I'm watching a pet at your home, I don't make messes.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 18. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets while providing the best care possible for their furry family members. I am also skilled at basic training commands and am willing to teach your pet how to sit, lie down, come, etc. I am currently enrolled in college 3 days a week, but have plenty of time in between classes and on the other weekdays and the weekend to care for your pet. I am willing to follow explicit instructions to ensure the proper care and safety for your pet while in your home. I can clean, give regular frequent walks, and even bathe your pet if needed.

“Fantastic with my Doberman/Rottweiler mix puppy. Even takes him to a dog park close to the residency for off the leash play time and training.”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life. I currently have 2 dogs, Indie and Remi, and 3 cats, PawPaw, Phantom, and Eevee. I am a veterinary technician at a clinic in Springfield, in school to get licensed. My background means I’m not only comfortable with pets, but I also understand their medical and behavioral needs. Whether it’s administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, or simply offering comfort and play, I’m prepared to give your pet the attentive, professional care they deserve while you’re away. Their safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I work full-time, only 4 days a week, with an hour long lunch break. This allows me plenty of time to spend with your pets! I always double check locks and gates to make sure there is no way for escape. I spent my time playing with your fur babies and hanging out and watching tv with them. I also have a dog friendly dog for companionship if your dog wants a buddy!

About: I've been pet sitting for almost 20 years and have been a lifelong animal lover. From babies to senior fur babies, I have watched them all. I have two days off during the workweek and I don't work weekends. My work schedule is only until 4 pm on days I do work. Willing to travel to watch or walk animals. I have previous experience of overnight in home care for both dogs and cats. Good with sitting and just keeping the animal company.

“Sadie loves Katelynn! She was very sweet and was very thorough when taking care of my dog Sadie. I will be using her again!”

About: Since I was 9, I’ve taken care of all kinds. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets for extended periods of time. I’m currently working from home so I will have ample time to play with puppies! My schedule is very open and I can take boardings at any time of day. ***Please note that my daycare rate is for eight hours of service. Anything more is an additional $10 per hour. *** I have a large fenced in yard that allows the ability for pups to run around, play together or alone, and expel their never ending energy.

About: I’ve grown up on a farm and constantly had pets, so I love all animals! I’d love to take care of your pets and can do in house pet sitting, drop in visits, or come walk them! I’m currently working part time and am a student but have a dog of my own, so I’m great at balancing my schedule. I could easily fit in your pet’s schedule to ensure they get the best care possible! I love going on walks with my dog and would look forward to taking yours on walks as well! I would take them out multiple times a day to play and potty, and would ensure they’re getting great care!

About: I have provided a range of services from dog walking to pet sitting. My services include supporting animals with specific medical needs. Some of the special medical needs I've provided services for include: administering prescribed medications to cats and dogs, caring for animals with separation anxiety and bone and joint problems. I understand how important fur babies are so I care for them like they're my own <3 Providing quality pet care is my focus. I offer a wide range of availability with a flexible schedule. I'm looking forward to helping you with your pet care needs. When providing care in a clients home I request written instructions so I can insure every fur babies needs are met. Aside from following written instructions I do my best to bond with your fur baby.

About: Growing up I’ve been surrounded by many different kinds of animals between cows and horses to snakes and dogs. Currently I’m a manager at a dog boarding/daycare facility and have been for almost 3 years. Working there has widened my experience with many different kinds of dogs. I’ve learned how to take care of unable animals between simply being blind to being fully paralyzed, how to administer different kinds of medications even medical shots, and how to safely take care of animals with them still having an absolute blast. Outside of work I help family and friends with their furry animals with walking, potty brakes, and full house/dog sitting. In the past two years I’ve become involved in the rescue industry by putting on my own adoption event and helping whenever they need it. I’ve learned that animals being taken care of by someone other than their owner feel so much better when you treat them like you would your own. My work schedule changes on a week to week basis but I work 7-5:30 or half shifts and have an hour and half lunch break for dog walking. Once I’m off I’m completely able to do whatever is needed for your animal. I will take care of your animal however you would take care of them. Every animal owner has a different way of raising them and I’m flexible to do anything you want.
