Dog Walkers in Ectonville, MO

About: As a dedicated pet sitter in my 40s, I bring both life experience and a genuine love of animals to every home I visit. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide reliable, attentive care—so your pets are never rushed or overlooked. I share my life with two Labrador Retrievers, so I understand the energy, affection, and structure dogs need to thrive. Beyond everyday care, I’ve trained my own dog in agility and therapy work, which means I’m comfortable handling different temperaments, reinforcing good behavior, and providing both physical and mental enrichment. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or simply keeping your pet company, I treat every animal as if they were my own—with patience, consistency, and plenty of love. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and keep your pets happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work from home which allows me the flexibility to accommodate your pet care needs for almost any request during the week or weekends. I will follow your pet’s typical routine and any other specific instructions you may have to ensure you feel 100% comfortable while your pet is in my care.

“Very nice!”

“Evelyn has only walked Sonny 2 times. They walked 1.5 miles on each walk. They are a great match! Sonny loves her.”

About: I got my first dog when I was 10, and have been dog and cat sitting since I was 12. I want it to be the best experience for your pet and you. I have patience, am caring, hardworking, and always high on energy to play with the pets. I will send you updates and let you know when the job has been complete. Your pets are more than a job to me, for I want to bring them love and comfort. I would be honored to bring you and your pet quality care with lots of love! I’m currently a part of a proffesional dance company, where I go in for 4 hours each day. I then have time after that to come play and watch your pets! I teach dance in the evening and nights, but have time to stop by and check on the pets when needed! My weekends are fully open to spend as much time loving and caring for your pets! I will care for your pets with tender and care. I am unable to watch them in my home, but can do all the pet needs at yours. I can take them for enjoyable walks, feed them, play with them, stop by for bathroom breaks, fresh air, and give them lots of hugs and love. I can crate them if needed and give them someone to play with so they don’t feel lonely!

“This was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous, but Rio was wonderful. Great communication and cute photos of my 13 year old Shih Tzu. No complaints. Will definitely request Rio in the future!”

I am comfortable feeding, walking, handling medication, playing indoor/outdoor, and exercising with pets. Extra accommodations for young or senior animals will also be managed!

“I booked Cooper for a 3-day walk with my dogs. It was really cold that week. On day 3, it was snowing, I told her that if the roads were bad, we can just cancel the walk. She came and walked the dogs that day. Really love her!”

About: 🐾Please note that meet and greets are required for all my services! Me and my boyfriend both work full time jobs so your pets will be alone for a few hours depending on your services you schedule with me. Also note if you book for a boarding stay you will have to provide a crate if your dog stays in a crate while your gone durning the day or overnight!🐾 I have taken care of all breed and sizes of dogs for a few years now. All my family and family friends have trusted me with their fur babies. I go to their homes or I take their dogs home with me depending on how they get along with my dogs. I have fed, played, and bathed dogs. I also love of them as if they are my own dogs. Not only do I care for dogs but I can care for all other four legged animals as well! Depending on the day if I work your pet will get 1 walk and plenty of outside time! If I am not working your dog will get 2 walks, hours of outside time and get as much enrichment to help their mental stemalation and energy! Starting in May on Saturdays I typically work at a race track until late, but I will go to your home prior to me going to the track. I have a fenced in yard and live in a nice Kearney neighborhood! We have several nature trails to walk on and a dog park in town! I do have two dogs but both are very friendly with other dogs and up to date on all vaccinations! There is also a vet office 5 minutes down the road that I take my animals to so if there ever is an emergency I will go straight there!

About: Hi! My name is Ali H. I have a 13 year old poodle that my family and I raised and trained. I have watched dogs since I was 10 (I will be 21 in November) and it is one of my favorite things to do! I have watched puppy from the age of 10 weeks all the way up to senior dogs. I have taken care of dog with many health problems. Since I live more in the country my dog and I normally go for walks about twice a week and we play in my yard everyday! Dogs in my house are treated like family. We make sure they are loved and cuddled everyday. And of course they sleep with us at night! We also love taking my dog for cars rides and spending time with other dogs to make sure she is socializing!

About: I am a nurturer and a lover. I love all animals and know how hard it is to leave them. I will never be a replacement for you, but know it is important to have someone to love on your fur babies when you have to be away. I am used to dealing with high anxiety dogs and have experience with medically needy as well. I am happy to work with you on your pets needs, and make sure we are a good fit. I love to walk and play outside, but I’m also happy to snuggle up on the couch. Whatever your pet needs, we can make it work! I am used to following detailed plans, routines and instructions to make sure your absence is as easy as possible on your fur kids!

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and now I have two dogs. One is seven and one is a young puppy. I also dog sit three frenchies, three days a week. I walk all the dogs listed, train them, play with them and cuddle them! Here are two reviews of my services: Cats- Haley does a great job taking care of my cats. One has medical needs and I trust her to keep an eye out for any concerning changes. She knows how to respect my cats autonomy. I trust her in my home and with my baby catties! Dogs- I cannot recommend Haley enough! Watching three Frenchies is no small task, and she does it with such love and care. They all have different personalities and specific health needs (keeping cool, specific diet restrictions, not overexerting on walks or play time) yet Haley handles all three as if they were her own babies. She sends me daily photos, videos and updates me on what they did during their time together. I work long hours and it’s such a relief to come home to calm well loved dogs. She’s a great asset to anyone looking for a dog sitter! I am currently working part-time and I have a very flexible schedule. I am happy to work with your schedule to best suit your needs. I have a fenced in yard with room to run. My two dogs LOVE to play and chase each other. I also love to play with other dogs and give them all the enrichment I can.

About: I have always had a love for all kinds of animals. Ive enjoyed watching family and friends pets as well as caring for my own pets in my apartment. I'd love to get to know you and your unique pet and make them feel even more loved and appreciated. I have past background knowledge on pet nutrition,hygiene and behavior traits. I am currently starting school in March to gain my pharmacy technician certification, I would have open availability to provide assistance for you and your pets. I do have a dog with me, her name is Maze. Maze is a rescue, she stays in my room and going on walks multiple times a day as well as dog parks, she would love to have a friend. Maze eats 2 times a day once in the morning and once in the evening with a snack (can of tuna/shredded chicken) in the afternoon. Maze talks walks in a harness to provide safely,we do have an extra! I have cats as well, the are allowed to freely roam around with little latches that keep bedroom doors open just enough for them to go in and out, they are also fed twice a day with wet food and have dry kibble out for free feeding through the day, since they have smaller stomachs they eat more frequently, howver the dry food is only filled once it runs out completely, the cats also have a running water fountain as well as other water bowls on elevated surfaces. Their are plenty of pet beds,toys and treats, if their are any allergies please let me know!

“Brandi came and walked my dog every day for several weeks while I was waiting for hip replacement. A definite plus for me. She varied her times around weather and the fact that my doggy gets hot if the sun is too much (she came in the evening).”

About: Animal-lover who started volunteering with rescues over a decade ago. Experienced with dogs, including reactive dogs(I have one of my own), cats, birds, and various other pets. Feel free to share the training commands you'd like to work on with your pet and I will try to work them in where I can during my visit. I will treat your pets like my own(my dog is incredibly loved and spoiled) Currently working freelance so my schedule is flexible. Able to work most visits into my schedule without issue, but if there's a visit that won't work, you'll know as soon as I do so other arrangements can be made Only open to dropping by and house-sitting bookings at the moment because my own dog can be reactive and we currently live with a cat, but I'm a great caretaker and a top choice for my friends when they need a sitter. Responsible, reliable, and focused on giving your pet the best care possible for their needs

About: I'm a natural with animals and your dog/dogs are sure to love me. I'm an active person, so playing with your dogs won't be a question. I am a Husky-mom so I'm used to many personalities! I work fully remote so taking care of your fur babies will never be an issue! I have an amazing space dedicated solely to dogs. I have a 360 square foot temperature-regulated patio with couches, soft spaces, and water dishes dedicated to the dogs. This patio opens up to a huge fenced in backyard. This space is enriching and full of playtime for your dogs!! The dogs also have full reign of the house and are well-watched throughout their stay. I've had about 8 years of dog care experience and am excited to take care of more dogs. If your dog has any special interests or things they like to do, I would love to do those things with him/her. I also love just relaxing with a pup by my side, so if your dog likes that, I can dig that, too. I work remotely during the day, but have flexibility to come home/walk dogs/drop by, etc. I have fostered dogs and cats for over 2 years and would love to have a “job” working with dogs!! I love hanging out with dogs. I work fully remote so taking care of your fur babies will never be an issue! Your pets will always be in a safe, monitored space. Weekdays are available for doggy daycare, dog walking and dog drop-ins. Weekends are sporadic but sometimes have availability for walks or drop-ins! I am very considerate of each family and pets’ needs. I know routines and consistency are important so I’m very happy to accommodate those whatever they may be!

About: I rescued my first pet (cat) and spoiled my second (dog). Have fun playing fetch and taking long walks, and love to hang out with cats too. I have just recently moved back to Missouri from Bozeman, Montana and am always looking to stay busy with side jobs on my time off. I can easily crate dogs (only if asked or necessary) in a client’s home. I can recognize different techniques to use on differently trained animals.

About: I’ve dog sat older dogs nearing the end of their life and I’ve helped raise puppies. I’m very passionate about working with animals and keeping them safe. I’ve also worked at a dog boarding place, caring for pets. I love spending time with dogs. I currently work overnight shifts, so I will get to spend my days with your dogs. I’ll be around to check on them as often as needed, let them out frequently, and give them plenty of attention and love. I always monitor play time and potty breaks, and I always make sure there’s nothing dangerous the dogs can get a hold of. Animal safety is important to me.

About: I’ve been working with animals from a very young age. From volunteering at an animal shelter to walking my neighbors dog I consider myself familiar with pet care. I currently have my own puppy I am training and a much older family dog as well as an older cat. I am currently in school and work part time, so I would be helping out between then or at night. My schedule mainly depends on the week. I can take a dog into my space if needed, if they fit into a crate they will get along with my dog, however bigger dogs would require other accommodations, which I am happy to work out.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my unwavering dedication to the well-being of each pet. I have experience in providing compassionate care for senior dogs, making sure they are comfortable and happy. My love and respect for animals drive me to go above and beyond to meet their needs. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Every morning, I start by feeding them followed by a walk or playtime to ensure they get exercise. Throughout the day, I make sure they have fresh water and check on them regularly to ensure they are comfortable and happy. In the evenings, I spend quality time with them, reinforcing training and providing affection. On weekends, I often take them on longer walks and outing. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I stick to their usual routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I ensure they are fed on time, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise through walks and playtime. I also provide lots of affection and attention, and I am diligent about cleaning up after them to keep the home tidy. Additionally, I keep an eye out for any signs of health issues and provide any necessary medications or special care as instructed by the owner.
