About: Hi!! I have a dog of my own and I’ve been taking care of my neighbors dogs like taking them on walks and letting them outside since i was 10!! I adore dogs and want to give them a chance to get outside Im back from college for the summer, and i have a really flexible schedule the entire summer! And will be available until the end of august!! Im very well trained with dogs from anxious dogs, small dogs, big dogs, energetic dogs! I have a dog myself and he's small but quiet energetic!

“Martina is great! Our German Shepherd loves his walks with her and she is working great at getting our golden to warm up and go for walks, which might not ever happen but always appreciate the effort and initiative!!”

“Kelsi has been the perfect dog walker for my pup! I know my dog enjoys getting outside with Kelsi - on my busy days, she is a lifesaver. Kelsi has always been very communicative and responsive, as well. Highly recommend her if you are looking for genuine care for your pet.”

“Hanna was awesome! We had her watch our puppy three different times when we were in town for graduation weekend and she was amazing! It was so nice to leave knowing that Nugget was in good hands. I highly recommend Hanna!!!”

About: I have been surrounded by animals all my life as I grew up on a farm. I have my own dog that lives with me now, and we are best buds. We love walks, hikes, swimming, and going on all kinds of adventures. I love all animals and would love to come see yours! Currently, I am free after 1 on Tuesdays/Thursdays. Mondays, Thursdays and most weekends are open. I have a schedule that changes almost every week, but my commitments are not more than 4 hours. I basically treat every pet like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and playtime. I follow whatever routine they’re used to so they feel comfortable, whether that’s at my place or yours. Expect plenty of updates (and cute pics!).

“Taylor was great! She came over the day before to meet the doggies. Even though the times I originally requested were a little difficult for her schedule that day (it was last minute,) she did all she could to make it as close as possible- and ended up being there about the time I had requested anyway. I scheduled two visits in one day, and while I said the second visit only needed to be a feed and let out in the yard - she asked if they could still go for a walk. :) She was also very observant and noticed a small scratch on one of my dogs, sent a photo, and asked if I wanted her to treat it. I really appreciate all the attentiveness; and the above and beyond she provided for my babies. Most importantly, the dogs seemed to really like her too. :) We are already planning for her to return. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 6 years now, and I just recently adopted my own! His name is maverick and he’s a husky, but I also have a cat (bean) and another dog (bronco) who I adopted a few years ago. I live in an apartment complex here in Columbia, and I’m currently a college student! I work full time, three days a week. Tues-thurs! I do work nights so I’m usually free from 8am-6pm on the days that I work, otherwise I’m free early mornings and late at night if needed. I’m available to do drop in visits and boarding on the weekends :) Since I live in an apartment complex without a fence I typically walk maverick on a leash and frequently take him to the off leash dog park near by. I’d be able to do whatever you do at your home to accommodate!

About: Growing up with 2 dogs taught me to care and love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I also cared for my aunts two dogs and two cats each summer since 2020 while she travels out of town. Im comfortable with feeding routines, litter boxes, and I love taking dogs on walks and giving fur babies lots of love and attention! I have a very flexible schedule and enjoy incorporating pets care into my routine. I go for lots of walks during the day and enjoy playing and giving lots of attention to pets! I prefer caring for pets in their own homes where they feel most comfortable. I follow the owners routines and instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, calm, and cared for while their owners are away.

“She was absolutely amazing and Caesar, was so comfortable with her. And she was very attentive to his needs. I am very impressed and definitely will use her again.”

“Donna is EXCELLENT with my dogs Charlie and Buddy. They're Maltese-Shih Tzu mixes, 7 and 3 years old, and they absolutely love her and they walks she takes them on. I've watched her with my boys and based on what I've seen, would highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for a walker with a great temperament and strong skills at dog handling.”

About: Hi! I’m Josselyn, a pre-veterinary student at the University of Missouri (Mizzou) with a strong passion for animal care and behavior. In high school, I completed a veterinary technician program and successfully passed the certification exam, giving me hands on experience in animal health and clinical care. I also completed an internship at a veterinary hospital, where I assisted with patient exams, treatments, and daily operations. Most recently, I worked at a doggy daycare, where I gained valuable experience in managing group play, understanding canine behavior, and ensuring each dog’s safety and happiness. My background has given me a well-rounded understanding of animal needs from medical care to playtime and I’m dedicated to providing compassionate, reliable care for every pet I meet. I’m currently working part time and I’m also a full time student. I am mostly available nights or late afternoon. I am also pretty much always available over the weekend. I don’t currently have a dog but my roommate has a very playful pup. He’s a very good listener and extremely calm for a puppy.

About: Hi, I’m Maggie, a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for every tail wag and purr. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, or just a cozy cuddle buddy, I’ll treat them like family. I’m reliable, communicative, and always focused on your pet’s safety and happiness. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I’m currently transitioning out of the military and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet my full attention. Since I’m not working a traditional 9–5 right now, I can easily accommodate walks and drop-ins including last-minute bookings. Whether your pet stays in your home or mine, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment. I follow your care instructions closely—meals, walks, meds, or snuggles—and do my best to keep their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: My experience with pets started at an early age, as there has never been a time in my life where I haven’t had at least one dog and cat that I absolutely adored and took care of. From fostering kittens to attending the hounds around town walking program for dogs- I’ve had a pretty wide range! I’ve completed a socializing program with my prior local humane society, pet sat many of my friends and family’s’ fur babies- as well as currently taking care of my three sweet cats! I would love to meet your pets and share some love when you aren’t able to! It brings a lot of joy to my life :) I’m currently a medical professional employed in the Columbia community but have pet sat as a side gig for many years as a way to connect with the community, meet other local pet parents, and love on others pets as if they were my own! My schedule varies and is often open the entire day. I would love to fit some pet sitting/walking opportunities into my life when I’m able! Taking care of your pets in your home is completely up to your preferred method! Every pet parent is different and I will make sure to tailor that experience to the sitting. Details and communication are the most important thing .

“Jennifer did an excellent job with Janky! Janky is pretty shy and hesitant about being around new people, but she warmed up to Jennifer very quickly. I was very happy with Jennifer and the updates I received from their walks. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone who is hesitant about using Rover - she’s excellent and you won’t regret choosing her to care for your pet.”

About: My name is Doug and my wife, Adrienne, and I have an adorable pitbull mix with special needs named Shuri. I have a soft spot for power breeds and misunderstood dogs; though, we love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have had dogs my entire life and have worked with dogs of all different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I have experience in basic training methods. I have experience working with multiple dogs, administering medication, and doing basic training work. Most special needs can be accommodated. Plus your dog will definitely receive lots of love from myself and the rest of the family. I currently work from home and have plenty of time to spend with your pups. I am available on weekdays and weekends for walks, drop in visits, and overnights I believe dogs require adequate exercise, socialization, and mental stimulation to truly thrive. I look to provide all three to my dog every day and can help provide them to your dog

About: I’ve taken care of many different animals since I was 10! I’ve been trusted to walk, feed, and bathe many different types of dogs by family friends and more. I’ve worked at a dog exercise company as well as in a vet clinic for dogs and cats. I’m a pre-vet animal sciences student at Mizzou and absolutely love all types of animals. I am currently training a service dog through Retrieving Freedom and have lots of experience training dogs! I also have a senior dog back home and have cared for her for many years. I look forward to meeting your fur babies! I’m currently working part time so I have lots of free time to check in on your animals or take them out! The longest stretch of time I would ever be away for is 4 hours during the weekdays. When classes resume I will have a tighter schedule but will still have time to take care of your fur babies! I will make sure that your pet feels comfortable with my presence in their home and adapt to their personality and needs! Whether they are more shy or outgoing I will ensure they feel safe with me there.

“We love Jessie. She is so great with Millie and very easy to work with.”
