Dog Walkers in Hemker, MO

About: My friends tell me that I am an animal whisperer haha! I love the company of an animal and giving it all of my love! I used to have a dog of my own, we were best friends, but unfortunately he passed away a few years ago. I’m not at the best spot in my life to have my own pet again so I wanted to find a way to still love on animals and have their presence! I currently have a full time job in St. Louis. I am available to WFH if I need to watch your pet(s) during the week!! More than happy to do so :) We have a very large yard/field behind my home but it is not fenced. I will be sure to have your puppy on a leash if need be!!! We also live in a neighborhood, off of the main road in town. I am also available to watch them in STL as I have family that live there!

About: Hello! My name is Courtney and I've dedicated the past seven years of my life to caring for animals, and it's been the most rewarding experience. From gentle giants to tiny critters, I've had the privilege of tending to a diverse range of pets. My passion for animal welfare is matched only by my commitment to providing the highest quality care. When you entrust your furry, feathered, or scaled family member to me, you can rest assured they'll receive the love and attention they deserve. I'm not just a pet sitter; I'm a compassionate caregiver who understands the unique needs of each animal. I'll follow your specific instructions, administer medications, and provide plenty of playtime and cuddles. Whether it's a quick drop-in or extended stay, I'll treat your pet like my own. Let's keep your pet happy and healthy while you're away. I currently work full time Monday through Thursday while being off on Fridays. I am available to walk dogs after 5pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday while anytime time on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I have a fenced in yard with two friendly Great Pyrenees that will definitely keep your fur baby busy and happily playing. If your pet needs to be leashed walked I am more than willing to accommodate for that.

“Jessica was able to accommodate a last minute dog walk that is much farther away than typical (my pup was at my parents’ house. A positive experience all around, as is always the case!”

About: I’ve grown up around big and small dogs all my life. I have also been dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors and love to take my German shepherd on runs. I live at home right now and am taking one class online and work-part time so I will have lots of time to play with your pets and snuggle them. I make sure the animal will stay within boundaries if they have to stay in a fence and will make sure that they get all meds needed or food on time.

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 have been fostering dogs for years and use to all different breeds. I have always grown up with dogs and helped take care of them. I absolutely love the joy they bring into the world. I was originally going to school to be a vet but it ended up not working out because of all the blood. I have a huge heart and have a lot of love to give. I love all dogs of any age, size, or breed. I will take your dogs on walks or runs whatever you are comfortable with. I have given dogs medicines and have regulated strict diets. Also I have taught dogs to be potty trained. My apartment doesn't allow any animals so I wouldn't be able to house animals at my apartment but I am gladly to stay if needed or come and go as often as you are comfortable with. My schedule is very flexible so I can work as needed or as my schedule allows. Majority of the time I am free by 12 or earlier. I have been working as a foster parent and work with many different challenges and personality types. I have had to help with heart worm treatment, surgery care, elder dogs, anx have a cat of my own.

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 pets all my life, and recently have been the soul caretaker of 3 cats and 2 dogs. I’m currently waiting on a waiver to join the military. I am currently unemployed and waiting to join the military, I have no consistent plans, so I am always available for pet sitting, walking, etc. I can run and walk with dogs at my own or your home. I’ve cared for many different pets throughout my life, and I've dealt with all kinds of personalities.

About: Hi my name is Maddi! I am the proud owner of Bombproof Canine Training LLC, I absolutely love what I do and I just wanted to leave my Rover account active to help connect with previous / potential clients. I have a huge heart for high drive & misunderstood breeds. I rescued my American pitbull terrier from a kill shelter in Brooklyn the day she was set to be euthanized back in 2012. Rescuing and rehabilitating her really opened my eyes to what my purpose in life is and that is dog training. I am a Fear Free certified trainer as well as a CPDT-KA. I specialize in service animals, reactivity, fear, separation anxiety etc.. I'm also a huge advocate for rescue animals as well as responsible breeding, I have a high drive 4.5 year old black lab named Tater, a 3 year old malinios named Banshee, and a 2 year old Border Collie named Salem. I would love to help care for your pups while you’re busy at work, away on a trip or even if you’d like to set up some private training sessions. My own dogs are VERY high energy so I completely understand what it’s like when you don’t have the time to properly handle that. I really love being the “energy management coordinator” 😜 so if you just need someone to stop by and play ball for a bit I would love to help! At this time I prefer taking drop in visits, select boarding cases and training consults but will consider other options on a case by case basis. Don't hesitate to ask! I work in the canine industry full time, my focus is on training but I really enjoy drop in visits to help manage exercise and enrichment Every dog in my care will be treated as if they were my own, I encourage you to follow me on instagram to get a better understanding of how much I truly care about my animals.

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life. I started volunteering with a pet rescue around 2016 and have fostered many cats and dogs. I have experience taking care of dogs with allergies and skin conditions including giving topical and oral medications. I understand the importance of strict and/or special diets and also the degree to which some dogs rely on a schedule. I currently only do volunteer pet rescue work and have plenty of free time to help folks who need drop in visits. My only time constraint currently is that I can only do drop-ins during school hours, roughly 9am-2pm. In my experience with many different cats and dogs over the years fostering, I love getting to know all the different personalities and believe that the utmost care should be taken in regards to making sure your pets are well taken care of. Whether that is in regard to food, medication or even just their own personal quirks.

About: I have trained puppies and have had multiple pets. My friends are always asking me to help with their animals, even financially. I love the meet and greets and soending my time with animals! I have so much free time right now because I am not working. I would love to get paid to help while you are away. I am safe and reliable. always on my toes and ready for a fun day with a pet. I hope you will entrust me. I do not steal and or trash anywhere I go

“All my pups absolutely love Marissa! She takes such great care of them on their walks. Marissa is also always mindful and respectful to pet parents. We are all thankful for her and our dogs have all began regular walks with her!”

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.

About: I’ll start with my experience, I have worked at a veterinary hospital, groomers, and doggy daycare! Currently working at a pet urgent care too so my hours may not work with you pets schedules. I know how to do basic first aid, any grooming, care for all types of animals, and I can notice different types of behavior changes. I will treat your lovely babies like they are my own. I currently own 4 dogs, all different ages and size. They are my babies for sure. I love to take them outside and get them running around and having fun when weather is nice. I can do walks for dogs. Can even go for hikes if you approve of it. I’m willing to work with anyone and there schedules as much as I can. I do like to offer grooming of any sort while they are in my care! If there are any other questions don’t be afraid to ask. I currently work full time at a pet urgent care. My hours are weird and as of right now my only off days are Tuesdays and Wednesdays. My shifts are usually 8 hours but it can be longer as we don’t control emergencies. I will always care for your fur and not so furry babies as if they were my own! So I apologize if you return home and they are a little more spoiled than before! I always send pictures because who doesn’t want pictures of there happy babies while away! Will follow schedules and directions that you give to me to keep them in their daily routine to the best of my ability and schedule!

About: I currently have 2 brand new babies. I’ve had pets my entire life (dogs and cats). I love them all! I have always rescued until these recent 2 cuties. I don’t have a single friend that doesn’t have a pet! Our pets are our peace! I’m happy to help in any way that meets your needs. I am flexible to your schedule. Let’s work together for your baby’s needs. I’m here for you all! I can work with your schedule on feeding, brushing, playing, walking and sleeping preferences. I have always spoiled my babies and will spoil yours on your limits

About: I have enjoyed working in a pet store and running a mini farm! One of my most incredible experiences was taking care of my dog's puppies after she gave birth to twelve adorable little ones. I’ve loved caring for and learning about various animals along the way! I am a college student in need of a flexible schedule. I usually finish my classes by 11 a.m. I have a busy schedule but would love to spend time with cute animals. As a college student, I understand the importance of being responsible and trustworthy, especially when it comes to caring for your beloved pets. I am dedicated to providing attentive care in the comfort of your home, ensuring your animals feel safe and loved while you’re away. You can count on me to be respectful and maintain high standards of ethics in your space. Your pets deserve the best, and I’m here to offer that peace of mind.

About: I’ve taken care of family and friends pets when out of town. I also have 4 wonderful fur babies of my own!! All but one of our pets have some form of special care so if yours also has special needs I can take care of those depending on severity. I have a flexible schedule where I work from home, so I can make a tailored schedule that fits with your pets needs. If you need one, two or three drop ins a day I can work that in my schedule to ensure your pet gets the attention it needs! I come to your home where your pet feels safe. I can feed your baby, clean their box, make sure they have water, medicate, crate them, take your pet for walks, let your pet out, play with them and give them lots of love! You name what they need I can can do it.

“We have used Barbara multiple times. She always communicates well and is extremely nice to our dog. We appreciate having someone so reliable and never have any doubts about the care and attention given to our dog. Would absolutely recommend her.”

About: I love all animals. If you need a caregiver for your friend I'm the one. I'm opened to days/nights weekend and holidays. Will travel too. I currently only work one day a week outside my home, the rest I work from home I would love a friend to hang out with, or take a break with. I will provide a loving fun time for your pet.
