“Molly was really easy to work with and is an experienced pro with dog care. My pups were happy and tuckered out when I got home. I’ll definitely be scheduling again with Molly in the future.”

“Taylor has been a fantastic support for me and the new pup. She is prompt and consistently arrives on time. She is also communicative and flexible. I appreciate her help when I can't be there for my 'kiddo.'”

“Clare was kind enough to take a same day booking to walk my dogs when I was too sick to walk them myself, my dogs came home well exercised and very happy! It was a huge help and I would absolutely book again :)”

“Tammy has been doing daily weekday walks with my dog about about two months now and does a fantastic job. She treats my dog with love and care and is very reliable. In rare cases when a scheduling conflict came up, she let me know well in advance so I could plan for it. I couldn’t ask for a better person to walk my dog.”

“I can tell she cares for my dog the way I do when I’m not around! I am so thankful to have found someone that I can fully trust with my pup and with my home. When I leave my house I tell my dog “Virginia is going to come” and he gets so excited and looks out the window to wait for her. She deserves the best review, but I don’t want to share her! She truly is the best and we appreciate her so much!”

“Lara is great - she handles my large dog with ease - he can be leash reactive and that requires expertise. And she is consistent and timely and reliable. What else could you ask for?”

About: I have been caring for animals for the majority of my life. As well as having had ten cats and dogs throughout my time growing up and into adulthood, I have worked as a pet sitter for nearly a decade. I have experience working with animals that need multiple medications administered, including orally and by injection. I have worked with both cats and dogs of all sizes, having had pets (personally and as a sitter) ranging from small kittens (~1 year old) to retired greyhounds and everything in between. I believe that part of the job of a sitter is not just to care for the basic physical needs of pets, but to provide the love and attention that the pet feels that they need.
About: I am the go-to pet sitter for my friends, family, and friends of the family. I have been told i’m an “animal whisperer” and take that title proudly! I have a bachelors in psychology, i’m a self-published author, and i’m certified in Reiki (energy healing) and can provide your pets and your home with reiki while i’m there. I have a background in housekeeping and can also provide additional cleaning services to your home. I love animals and have found pet sitting to be my happy place. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! Pet sitting is my full-time job so my schedule is very available! I used to do housekeeping professionally and now just clean for friends and friends of the family, but would be willing to provide additional cleaning services if the client requested. I currently live with two cats and two dogs (a pitbull and a dachshund). They’re my roommates animals but I treat them like they’re my own. I always said growing up if i had steady hands I would’ve been a vet! I’m always caring for pets, or with pets and treat them like I would treat a child.
About: I’ve been around animals ever since the age of 5. I love any and all types of animals and would be honored to assist you! I am currently not employed, so I spend majority of my time at home so my hours are very flexible! I am available throughout the day Monday-Friday! Our apartment community is very animal friendly, any pet will fit in here! Your pet will be very well looked after in our apartment complex!
“Mackenzi was wonderful and took my pup on a nice long walk while I was away. I appreciated her quick responses and care of both Josie and my kitty! Would definitely recommend Mackenzi to care for your pets.”

About: I’ve spent my whole life loving animals and over 15 years working in animal care. I’ve partnered with rescues, owned a pet-sitting business in North Carolina, and worked as an ER vet tech. Now I’m back doing what I love most, spending time with pets. I know how to keep them safe, happy, and feeling at home. Expect photo updates, plenty of love, and yes, a few silly voices too. I am new to Saint Louis and work from home part time, which means I have plenty of time to devote to you and your furry friends. I prefer to care for pets in their own home where they feel safe and comfortable. I follow their usual routine, keep things clean and calm, and make sure they get plenty of attention and love while you’re away.
About: Being homesick is no joke. I figured I’d miss my parents, but I didn’t realize how much I’d miss having Roxy, our 4-year-old lab-shar pei mutt, around. Our family text chain is a steady stream of Roxy pics: in her crate, on the sofa, under the dining room table, and they always brighten my day. That’s the energy I’ll bring to your pups: someone who genuinely gets excited to hang out and misses them between visits. As a WashU student, my schedule revolves around my classes and the academic calendar. I have daytime, evening, and weekend availability to help out with your dogs, although it will change as the semester changes. Currently, I am most flexible during the evenings and on the weekends,but can offer daytime blocks, as well. I’m available for care and feeding, walks and play time. Growing up in Chicago, I can’t remember life without dogs. We adopted Zuzu from a local shelter when I was 5 and Roxy when I was 14. Both doggos feature prominently in all of my best childhood memories and taught me a lot about responsibility, routines, patience, and unconditional love. This is the knowledge and understanding I will bring to caring for your dogs.
“Madeline is so great with our golden, Bilbo! He looks forward to seeing her each week. She is reliable, communicative, and so quick at responding! We feel lucky to have her as a regular walker for our baby.”
