Dog Walking Dutzow

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: 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: Hi! My name is Destinee, and I’m currently saving for my wedding while doing something I genuinely love, caring for animals. I’ve grown up around dogs, cats, chickens etc. and understand that every pet deserves patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and will make sure you receive updates and photos while you’re away so you can have peace of mind. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’d love the opportunity to care for yours. Every booking helps me work toward my wedding, and I’m incredibly grateful for your support! I own and operate my own cleaning business, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. With advance notice, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on weekdays and weekends. I understand how important routines are, so I’ll always communicate clearly, arrive on time, and make sure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play under supervision. I also have chickens, a friendly cat, and two children who have been raised to be gentle and respectful with animals. I understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals or children, so I’ll always discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand to make sure it’s the right fit. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic care, crate your dog if requested, and provide plenty of love, playtime, and photo updates while you’re away.

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 had dogs most of my life and began learning to train them in 2005. I have had over 50 different breeds under my care. I’m very active so dog walks are enjoyable. Trust is important both ways. I won’t accept badly tempered dogs into my home, and can travel to you or meet up to work through training. Let’s chat to fit your needs. I am pretty flexible and sometimes only need one to two days notice unless I am already all booked up. Just reach out and we can see what may work out. I have a fenced yard, large crate, and a well-trained Sheppard/lab mix to help take care of your dog, give them company, and play however you prefer.

About: My husband and I have had 2 dogs for ten years and recently adopted a senior dog. We trained the younger dogs ourselves and they are the best part of our day. I have a caretaking job that keeps me busy Tuesday through Thursday, 9 to 5. I am still available for overnights any night of the week, morning and evening drop ins Tuesday through Thursday and all drop ins Friday through Monday. I love my rover job and would do it full time if possible. I am patient and kind with animals and truly enjoy them. I walk my dogs regularly and make them fresh dog food. My older dog took 4 pills every morning before we had to send her over the rainbow bridge.

“She was amazing with my dog. Super great communication and energy to match my pup. He was thrilled with her and getting his exercise. Will be re-hiring for sure.”

About: I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and how important it is to find someone who gets how much your pet means to you. That’s why when caring for others’ pets, I treat them how I’d want someone to care for my own — with lots of love, attention, and playfulness…or calm comfort (whichever suits them best!). I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines, and always keep you updated with cute pics and notes, if desired. Whether your dog’s super social or a couch cuddler, I’ll make sure they feel loved, happy, and cared for! With being in charge of my own schedule, I have the opportunity to be flexible and accommodate many time-based needs. As a private practice clinician, my work hours are typically shorter and of a different time frame than the average 9-5. I have spare time on my hands during week days (and weekends) when most need care! My area of availability is broad as well as I’m local to the Franklin County area, but work in Chesterfield. While I don’t offer in home care out of love and respect for my own dog-children, I can accommodate your environment — whether that be one inside, outside with no fence, outside with a fence, etc.

“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!”

“Makayla was simply EXCELLENT. Our dog Maggie instantly loved her. Each walk went absolutely perfect. Very puntcual, quite friendly, and obviously loves dogs. Highly recommend Makayla and we will definitely seek her for assistance again. Thanks.”

About: I love dogs! All dogs... big, small, smelly, playful. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as other's. Dogs generally love me as well. I learned most of what I know about caring for dogs from The Dog Whisperer. He really knows his stuff! Does your dog need walks and some extra training? I can handle that no problem and really enjoy seeing a dog respond to training and play. I use positive reinforcement while working with dogs. I love walking for fitness and love it even more when I have a pup to join me. While pet sitting, I can also care for plants, etc. I enjoy gardening so if you have a garden and require house/pet sitting, consider me your person! My schedule is very flexible. I currently work gig jobs and freelance, remote accounting projects. If I am house/pet sitting for you I can accommodate whatever schedule your animals usually follow. I will follow whatever rules/instructions are laid out for me. Safety is number 1 and I am sure to keep owners updated on any issues promptly.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life! From puppies to seniors, big to small breeds, I love and can provide proper care for all. I’ve dog sat and house sat for over 5 years and thoroughly enjoy spending my time with animals :) I’m a student enrolled in virtual classes so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m pretty much always able to work around whoever needs sitting! I offer drop ins to keep your pets company, let them out, feed them, and give them the love and attention they need. I can house sit as well but prefer a meet and greet before to establish trust and safety!

About: I've had pets in my family since I was a kid, and I have taken care of foster animals, family pets and friends pets throughout adulthood. I have taken care of pets who have medication needs and environment needs (scared of thunder and such.) I work for myself, so I am able to work around my work hours accordingly and easily to provide the care that is needed for my clients. My care is adaptive to each pet family's needs and home. I am an observant person and pay attention to the details while caring for pets. I cannot take on daycare or boarding services right now, but I am more than happy to take dogs for walks, care for cats, and pet sit while you're away.

“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😊”

About: I have been dog sitting since I was in high school. I just recently lost my pup this month and he was the best dog. We would take him on long walks and love on him all day! We recently just adopted a dog that came from a hoarding situation and have been working with a trainer on socializing her. I love hanging out with dogs, playing with them, and walking them! I go to Mizzou and I come home on the weekends. I will be available Friday-Sundays and Mondays if needed. I don't have a job so I am available to come at any time you need! Every pet is unique, and I take the time to get to know your pets' individual personalities, preferences, and needs. This allows me to tailor my care to ensure they feel comfortable and content while you're away. I understand the importance of maintaining your pets' regular routines. Whether it's meal times, exercise routines, or playtime activities, I follow your instructions closely to minimize disruption to their daily lives. Physical activity and mental stimulation are crucial for pets' overall well-being. I engage in interactive play, walks, or other activities to keep your pets active and happy. I understand how important it is for you to stay connected with your pets while you're away. I provide regular updates, including photos and messages, to keep you informed about your pets' activities and well-being. I treat your pets as my own!

About: I've always grown up with 3+ dogs of all sizes! I am responsible and very loving. Not a certified trainer, but I will love your baby like my own! I'm a very active person and enjoy being outdoors in the sun and my favorite company is a furry friend 🐕 I have a pretty flexible job and can easily work around any schedule. I have experience with all dogs of all sizes! I prefer to go to your home to make your doggies experience better. Animals tend to be less anxious and scared being in their own space. 🙂 Will absolutely make arrangements if needed!

“Jennifer was great! She stayed in touch Throughout the walk and sent photos. It was so nice to have the pups let out and walked while we were out on the boat for the day! Makes vacationing nice for us and the pups :)”

“Kate did a great job of checking in and spending time with our senior dog while I was at work. My dog is not in the best health and it was a comfort to know he was being taken care of especially on the days he wasn't feeling as well.”
