About: Hi! I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who understands that your pets are family. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs and am committed to following your pet’s normal routine, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, administering simple medications, or just providing companionship. I also know how important it is for pet parents to have peace of mind, so if requested, I can send regular updates and photos throughout each stay. I have been watching friends and family’s pets since I could drive but have done it more consistently since my senior year of high-school and feel confident I can meet your pets needs while you are away I am currently working part time and I work early in the mornings starting at 5 or 6am, and usually only about 6 hours so I will be able to get back to your pet in a timely manner. I will be able to spend the rest of my day. If your pet is already used to you being gone for 8 hours at a time even better! I am used to putting dogs in their kennel/crate when leaving the house and giving them any medicine they need at the start of the day

About: I grew up on a farm with many various animals, tending to their needs all year round. We also raised Great Pyreneese, and I trained my dog in 4-H! I'm currently in nursing school, so I have time around classes during the week. Monday and Wednesday, I am available until 12 and after 2:45. Tuesday and Thursday, I am free before 11 and after 12:15! My schedule does differ so feel free to reach out! In your home, I follow your routines, secure doors and gates, double-check leashes, monitor constantly, and keep your pup calm, safe, and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I love playing with cats and dogs to make sure they get the attention they deserve i will do do anything extra to help the owner like take out trash ect. Almost everyday when I'm not busy i make sure i take my feed my cats ol L Play with them using their toys and give lots of pets I make sure they are fed well i take them for walks if something is wrong i will contact the owner and i make sure they are safe.

About: I have over 12 years with pet care experiencing, including FFA, private families, shelters, and my own fur babies! I am a kind, compassionate, veteran who loves animals and am dedicated to making their care experience as easy (and fun!) as possible! I have experience with puppies to seniors, medical administration, and dogs with disabilities. I am a disabled veteran who currently does a lot of volunteer work - that being said I am available throughout the week and weekends with atleast 1 day notice :D I start care with making sure the necessities are taking care of, such as food, water, medicine, litter cleaned or potty break/walk. I then make sure the animal energy is matched through either play time, walks, relaxing (with pets!)!

About: I have dog sat for family friends several times and stayed over at their houses while doing so. I have a dog of my own and I trained her when she was a puppy. I have worked with different sizes of dogs and different levels of obedience. I am currently a college student so my hours will differ depending on the day, but I know that I have have time to fit pet care into my schedule. I am after 12pm on Tuesdays and after 2pm on Thursdays. The remaining days of the week I am pretty much free almost any time during the day. I find that even though my schedule is a little weird that may be beneficial as I can provide pet care at a variety of times. I care for pets in the way that they need to be cared for. I check on them often, make sure they are not anxious, as well as ensure they are getting plenty of exercise. If I am in a clients home I ensure the space is kept clean and the pet is happy and healthy.

“We are a repeat customer for Ginger. Ginger has a love of animals and especially our 80 pound Doodle, Lupin! We can always count on her taking excellent care of Lupin and our home when we are away. Everything is always perfect when we get back home. Looking forward to our next trip in which we will again be using Ginger! Thank YOU!”

“Megan and Seth were amazing!! I did not once worry about our pups while being away for the weekend. This hasn’t been the case when we used other pet sitters. They sent plenty of updates and pictures too. Our pups really seemed to enjoy their company. Highly recommend!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs for my entire life. I was expected to walk, feed, bathe, and take care of my pets at home since I was 10. I’ve been pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors for about 3 years now. I am a full-time college student so I plan to work part-time so that I can focus on my studies. Although I am open to full-time if needed. I am available to take your pet out for walks and feed them as many times you need. I typically walk my dog Ellie around 3-4 times a day and feed her in the morning and evenings.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life! And cats more recently (within the last 4ish years). I always had dogs growing up and have pet-sit since I was around 14! Can’t wait to meet your pet(s)! I’m a student and I work part-time. But I will definitely make time for your fur-babies! I will most likely take care of them in after classes, or before and after work shifts! I have plenty experience in informally training dogs, spending time with animals, and feeding and playing with them! I will work together with you to take care of your pet with whatever plan you decide!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life. Over the last 6 years I’ve supported friends with short term care and fostered dogs Mikki has have a pretty flexible work schedule with a traditional schedule of 9am-5pm, Monday- Fridays, that can allow her to check in mid day for walks, feeding, or belly rubs. I pet sit for friends, walk and check in on their dogs when needed, and have fostered dogs. I’m comfortable and experienced in small and large dogs.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, and feed their pets. I can't wait to play with your pups! Hi everyone! I’m a recent graduate from Murray State University, and I am now available for dog sitting in the STL area. I have 6 years of dog care experience and am comfortable dogsitting of all ages. I'm available on the weekends. And certain times during the week. If you or someone you know is looking for a responsible, caring, and experienced dog sitter—whether it’s part-time, occasional, or regular—I’d love to help out! I have a fenced yard and a golden doodle that is very friendly. If you have any questions about accommodations for your doggy I am more than welcome to help!

About: I have trained puppies, designed programs to solve behavior problems in adult dogs, cared for senior dogs, specializing in multi-dog households with a mix of all the above. I am currently designing software for a start-up idea so my schedule is very flexible. Ideal hours for day visits are between 8am - 9pm, overnight from 7pm - 9am “ish” and always available for emergencies. Different pets have different wants/needs so I will adapt my gameplan accordingly. Each visit will include some form of exercise, training and lots of love. My yard is fenced and my house is puppy-proofed. Lots of soft and shaded places to nap, inside and out. I use pest control and landscaping services so the yard is virtually free of stinging or biting insects and dangerous weeds or flowers. Clients can expect me to care for their pets and their property with utmost respect for house rules, privacy and courtesy.

“So Diane is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our elderly dog (Puddles) ended up having some medical issues while Diane was taking care of her, and Diane did an outstanding job taking care of our Puddles during this time. Puddles is doing fine and we truly appreciate Diane keeping Puddles. We highly recommend Diane taking care of your pets. She is someone you can trust! Thanks again.”

About: I've spent over 40 years caring for animals, from small dogs like Mini Dachshunds and cats to large breeds, including German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Dobermans, Chows, Pitbulls. I currently share my home with a long-haired German Shepherd and a beautiful long-haired domestic cat who are my babies. My daughter is also there while in college & has 2 cats so animals have always been an important part of my life, and to me, they're family, not just pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I've provided pet sitting for friends and family, including multiple-dog and cat households. One of my most meaningful experiences has been caring for my German Shepherd following a serious attack that left him with very significant injuries. Helping him through his recovery gave me firsthand experience with the patience, attentiveness, and compassion required when an animal needs extra support. I'm comfortable administering oral medications according to instructions, maintaining feeding and exercise schedules, and adapting to each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is a tiny Dachshund, a large German Shepherd, or a beloved cat, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to make sure you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I've always seemed to have a special connection with animals, even those who are normally hesitant around people. There's a little shop I frequent with a resident cat who apparently doesn't warm up to many visitors. One day, she surprised her owner by jumping right into my arms! Moments like that mean the world to me. I've always believed animals are some of the very best judges of character. I currently work an interesting schedule that allows me several consecutive days off. I have a rotating schedule. One week I work Sun-Tues 6am-6pm and the next I work Sun-Wed. The days I work are 12 hr days. But depending on how close you are to my job (Bridgeton area) I could potentially check in on them on my hour lunch and then go there after work at 6pm.. I live in Illinois but I dont plan alot of things this time of year so I have pretty good availability. Shoot me a msg, we can probably work it out. Even holidays. Talk to you soon! :) I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, especially when their family is away. My goal is to maintain their normal routines as closely as possible while providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about each pet's personality, daily schedule, feeding instructions, medical needs, and any special behaviors or concerns. I also believe meeting beforehand is important so both the pets and their owners can feel comfortable with me. Safety is always my priority. I'm attentive to securely closing doors and gates, using appropriate leashes during walks, and being mindful of potential hazards. Having cared for my own German Shepherd through a serious recovery, I understand how quickly unexpected situations can arise and how important it is to pay attention to changes in an animal's behavior or well-being. I respect my clients' homes and privacy and will treat their property with the same care I give my own. I also believe communication is essential, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while they're away. Most importantly, I understand that I'm being trusted with two things that mean a great deal to someone: their beloved pets and their home. I take that responsibility seriously.

“Jane was a rock star with my pup! So grateful that I had peace of mind while away for a week. Not only was she responsible with my kid, she took great care of the house too. Will definitely be rebooking!”
