Dog Walking Elkhurst

“Awesome with our doggo! Great communication as well, very sweet!”

About: I have had animals my entire life. I have taken care of cats and dogs and rodents. I have been trusted to house sit for others and take care of many pets at once. I loved doing it every single time! I am working to be a full time artist so my schedule is very flexible. I can accept last minute jobs easily. This is my main source of income currently I have two wonderful cats at home that both get a lot of love in the ways they need. Greg is my cuddle bug who loves to be close and snuggle. Bella is my independent baby who loves pets on her terms and playing with her many toys. I also have a hamster named Rickey who has his own spoils. I can check in on small animals too, even if they’re not on the app specifically.

“Lorali was awesome from the minute I booked her, even after she finished her visit with our fur babies. Lorali was very attentive & followed all the instructions that were given in the description. You can see that Lorali has a passion for what she does and it means a lot. Thank you for being so helpful & kind for me and my family!”

“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!”

“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!!”

About: I currently own 3 energetic dogs that adore! I am responsible for all aspects of their care. I have also dog sat for friends and family in the past. I am a graduate student so there are some times that I am not available, but most weekends and early morning and nights I can be available! I usually have breaks between classes that I can be available to check in on or walk your pet. At a client’s home you can count on me to make sure your animal is safe, loved, and cared for. I will do everything in my power to make sure the animal feels comfortable and not too out of routine.

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life ranging from puppies to tortoises. I know the hard work that goes into caring for animals and keeping them happy and healthy. My family and friends have relied on me to take their furry friends on walks or to just let them out for bathroom breaks. You deserve to be at ease when you’re at work or vacation. Don’t stress! With me as your pet sitter, you won’t have to lift a paw-I mean finger! I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time for your pups! I am always available Saturday but my schedule varies week to week. I’m usually pretty free so just let me know when you need a sitter and I can work around my other job. I can take your dog on a walk around the neighborhood. I always bring water for them to drink and waste bags. I can easily crate your dogs if requested or leave out pee pads. I can play with your animals to keep them entertained and make sure they stay out of trouble.

About: Hello! I have had all kinds of pets growing up. I have always had at least a dog and a cat. Currently i personally have a 7 month old puppy and a 2 year old cat. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for about two years now. I would love to meet your furry friend! I currently am working 4 days a week but am free after work and my days off. My days off are Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. I will be attending school starting in November so my schedule will change then. I currently have a 7 month old puppy and a two year old cat, but have always had a pet so I have taken care of pets of all ages and breeds. My friends and family all have varying breeds and ages of dogs and I am comfortable with all of them! I always make sure to spend a good amount of time with them.

“Thanks Janae. Shelby seems to have enjoyed her walk. She wanted to stay with you. Thanks for sharing the process with me. Signing up again for another walk.”

About: Animal Sciences undergraduate on the pre-veterinary track. Began pet-sitting in 2019. Small Animal Critical Care Attendant in the Intensive Care Unit at the University of Missouri Veterinary Health Center since January 2026. 300+ hours as an Animal Care Attendant at Silver Maple Pet Center (Doggy Daycare and Boarding). My volunteer work with the Mizzou Service Dog Club (through Retrieving Freedom Inc.) and Central Missouri Humane Society has provided me with an abundance of training and handling experience with dogs of all different behaviors, breeds, and training levels. Experienced in animal care, handling, training, and support! I work as a Manager at Crazy Bowls and Wraps 5 days a week and I shadow at McCauley Animal Clinic 1 day a week. I am able to feed, walk, and provide potty breaks before and after my shifts. I am able to stay overnight for all House-Sitting bookings. Animal care is my passion and it is my priority to make as much time for my clients’ pets as possible. I have experience with pet and babysitting, both of which have given me the skills to keep your home and your pet safe, comfortable, clean, and organized. I don't mind getting my hands dirty to keep yours clean! I also have experience in animal medicine for animals that require medication, special handling, and/or emergencies.

About: I am a vet student at Mizzou who is open to becoming your go-to person for pet-sitting needs! I am very flexible and willing to negotiate whatever you need to feel comfortable while you are away. This summer I am working at a research facility in which I am only there a few hours a week. So my schedule is pretty open! I live in a duplex house located Northeast of COMO. I'm more open to in-house visits rather than pet sitting where I live, but I'm flexible.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kiddo. Animals including dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, cows, horses, goats, lizards, etc. I try to make the pets feel very loved as their own family would. I have experience administering medicine. I have a full time job, but am flexible and can provide potty breaks when needed! I cannot keep the animal in my home, but would love to keep them in a place where they feel comfortable!! I try and make animals feel as comfortable as possible in their own homes! I try and stick to their normal routine as much as possible

“Adri has been great for my dog, taking her on long walks that she looks forward to. Definitely recommend Adri!”

“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: I am currently a veterinarian assistant at the MU Small Animal ICU and have experience dealing with animal emergencies! I have been trained to administer all sorts of medications and treatments and I know how to deal with all kinds of animal behaviors! I have also dog-sat, house-sat, and farm-sat for multiple families over the past five years! I’m currently working part time at a vet clinic, along with my class schedule, but I will have plenty of time to give your pups the best care needed! I have flexible hours and can work any and all days, provided you’ve given me enough time! My passion is animals! I have two dogs of my own, work at a vet clinic, and just want to spend more time with animals! I am able to crate your pups, give them any and all medications, and keep up with any current training programs!

About: Hi, my name is Becca. I live with four dogs, two Yorkies(Cocoa and Buddy), a Pit mix and a Beagle (Doobie and Maribel)! I love to play in the backyard with them and take them on walks. I think that it’s important to show dogs you care about them, by spending time with them. I enjoy long walks especially with dogs, it’s more fun when you have a furry friend with you! I look forward to getting to know your dog and learning more about their personality. Don’t hesitate to tell me if your dog has special needs or requirements. My schedule is somewhat flexible. I am currently in paramedic school. My classes are mostly in the mornings, but my schedule is pretty flexible during the afternoons on week days. I have a fenced-in yard, and all dogs have plenty of toys to play with! I often run around in the backyard with them to help get some of their energy out!

“Lucas is awesome! Always are fav when we go out of town.”

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: I have always had my own personal dogs and cats as well as occasionally taking care of the pets of friends and family. For the past 5 years, I have worked as a veterinary assistant in a companion animal hospital. In my work and personal experience I have cared for almost all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I am currently a full-time college student taking primarily online classes. This means I have a pretty flexible schedule and can be available when needed. My focus is to care for your pets as I would my own. A positive and enjoyable experience for your pet is my main priority!
