Dog Sitting in High Ridge

About: Hi! We’re Lainie and Stephen, and we’ve been caring for dogs for years in our cozy home in Fenton near the Bluffs. We know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog with someone you trust, so we focus on creating a calm, safe, and personalized experience for every pup who stays with us. Our laid-back dog Lucy loves having friends to play with, and we have a large fenced yard for plenty of exercise and outdoor time. We also have experience with senior dogs, administering oral medications, and caring for dogs with special needs. We treat every dog like part of the family and love sending photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles, or a quieter environment, we do our best to make them feel right at home. 🐾 We live in a fully fenced home with a safe backyard, and both of us work primarily from home, so your dog is rarely left alone and always has attention and care. Our home is perfect for dogs who enjoy play, family interaction, and a predictable routine. We especially love hosting longer stays and repeat guests, giving dogs a comfortable, home-like environment while their families are away. We also have a cat who mostly stays downstairs, so all pets can feel at ease. We can’t wait to welcome your dog into our home and treat them like part of the family! My husband and I both work primarily from home so your pet would have around the clock care. Weekends and evenings kids are home for playtime! we have a fenced in backyard, and plenty of room inside for a crate and/or bed for your pet! plenty of room to safely roam around indoors or out.

About: I have been a rescue dog owner for over twenty years and for the last two years I have fostered dogs for a local shelter. I have cared for unsocialized senior dogs, puppies, high energy dogs and disabled dogs. I have an established routine in the morning for feeding and potty time as well as evening feeding (as applicable to your pets schedule) and potty time. I have a large fenced in backyard. I can care for your pet in my home or yours. I can reinforce crate training for those pups who may need this. If your pup is used to cuddling on the couch or sleeping with their human I can provide that routine as well.

“Amy is an outstanding person and pet sitter. My puppy is so happy to have her come by for her visits. She is timely with communication, pleasant, and she takes exceptional care of my pet. I really appreciated her flexibility and attention to detail.”

About: I have grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve dog sat for family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve helped train my family’s dogs in the past so if there are any reinforcements or cues necessary on walks I’m more than capable of helping to keep a routine! I’m currently full time graduate student, but I have some free afternoons with plenty of time to walk your pets! I am also flexible to do drop ins for potty breaks and evening feedings. I do not have any pets but I can help care for your pet with walks! If there are specific needs your dog requires such as to be crated after walks I am more than willing to follow any directions for making sure your pet is safe and comfortable!

About: I am 61 years old and enjoy playing and taking care of animals. And I have 4 dogs of own. For the past year I have taken care of 2 other dogs and the best quality that I have is I am flexible and will do last minute tasks for the clients I have. I don't believe in keeping a pet caged up all day because they are like humans they need to eat, be walked and given attention. I will give update on how your pet is doing. If you need to have your patience go to the Vet or groomers I will pick up the pet and taken him or her to their appointment. If any medication is needed I will make sure they get it. I work part time taking care of the Elderly and I have extra time to work with animals. And help other pet parents get away for the weekend and vacation. So the don’t have to worry about their fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and a doggie door. I have certain areas gated off. I go outside with them when they are outside.

About: Hello! My name is Steven Willard and I love animals. I have always had pets growing up as a child and I've continued to have pets into adulthood. I enjoy learning and understanding all different types of animals from dogs, cats, reptiles, and small pets. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends, and neighbors pets. My wife and I have 3 dogs, 2 old beagles (Ollie 12 years old and Henry 11 years old) and a 6 year old aussie/beagle mix named Kaylee. We walk them around our neighborhood on a regular basis and play with them in our yard. We have a 4 year old Siamese cat named Blitz and we recently had a bearded dragon who passed away. Having older dogs, I have had a lot of practice with giving dogs medication mostly in pill form. I've also had experience with puppies and kittens. I have a flexible schedule and will keep my calendar up to date with availability. I have a lot of weekend availability for walking and drop-ins. I am happy to walk and play with your pets. I have experience administering medication to older dogs and cats. I have a high attention to detail regarding my surroundings as I have runners that like to try and get out when the doors are open.

About: I grew up in a dog-family so I've been taking care of dogs since I could walk. I regularly dog (and cat) sit for family and friends from college and church. I'm currently working part-time so my schedule is very flexible excluding Monday & Thursday evenings and Saturday afternoons. Down for morning/midday/evening walks and feeding or overnight stays. I like to do a Meet & Greet with all my clients well before my care-taking in order to properly care for your furry friend. I cannot currently board/crate dogs in my home but am able to offer walking, feeding, and overnights.

“Summer was so wonderful! She has such a warm personality and was great with our sweet Tinsel. She was very communicative and we would definitely use her again!”

“Mary is so wonderful! My cat has a hard time warming up to people. Mary was so patient with her and eventually she warmed up! Mary always gives great information about my cat’s care that helps put me at ease when I’m away from home.”

About: Welcome! We are a passionate, animal-loving mother-daughter team ready to give your pets the royal treatment. My lifelong love for animals started with my childhood beagles, followed by a schnauzer, and has grown to include four dogs of my own, a guinea pig, a bearded dragon, and numerous fish! We are starting this venture this summer to help my daughter build her skills and chase her lifelong dream. Ever since she was 4 years old, she has wanted to be a veterinarian—she even has a master plan to build a vet practice and a petting zoo on the exact same property! I love her animal-loving spirit and want to support her dream in every way I can. We work as a dedicated team she will be taking the profits and placing them into her savings account), so rest assured that your fur babies will truly become our fur babies while they are in our care. We can't wait to meet your pets! As a school district employee, I am currently on summer break until August! This means my schedule is wide open, and pet care is my main focus right now. My daughter and I are home almost all day, allowing us to provide frequent potty breaks, constant supervision, and plenty of playtime. Whether your dog needs a structured routine, midday walks, or just lots of couch cuddles and companionship, we have the flexibility to match their exact needs. Once school starts back up in August, we will transition to evening and weekend care, but for the summer, your pup will get our full, undivided attention! Because our own dog prefers to be an 'only child' and a single-sibling fur baby, we exclusively offer care in your home! When you trust us with your pets, my daughter and I will treat your home with the utmost respect, exactly as if it were our own. For House Sitting, we adapt entirely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. This includes their regular feeding schedule, medication administration if needed, and plenty of play and cuddle time. For Drop-In Visits or Walks, we ensure they get plenty of exercise, fresh water, potty breaks, and of course, lots of love. We also always make sure your home is secure before we leave and will send you plenty of photo updates so you can see how much fun we are having!

“Elizabeth is great. Our cats know her as a good friend, play with her, and she takes good care of both. She has been helping us already for three times. She is awesome!”

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 have been taking care of and training dogs my whole life. Over 30 years. I am known for having the best dogs on the block. My military friends have depended on me to watch their babies thru deployments of six months and longer in my home. I work full time, but I have a set schedule. This makes planning much easier. There is a moderate amount of flexibility to it. It makes it easy to take care of the sweetest member of the family. I live in an apartment but my complex has a fenced dog park at the building. Also there are parks around that are great for walking. I work full time, Monday through Friday. I work 7:30a-4:30p. However, I do work 10 minutes from home and my boyfriend is usually home around 3:00p. He helps me when I need it. I follow the routines of the pets at home. I walk dogs 3 times a day in the park next to my home. I do have crates of varying sizes to use if the dog is used to that at home.

About: I am a very passionate animal lover. I know how important it is to give them the care they need and the affection and attention as well. I am looking to do this Monday-Friday. I will be available in the morning to mid afternoon. I am hoping to fulfill people’s needs and care for their pets. I have one dog and one cat. We luckily have neighbors who will care for them if we won’t be home until later than expected and lets our dog out if needed.

“Ava was very attentive to my dog while I was away. She provided detailed reports for the check-ins. I could tell my dog was comfortable with her. Thank you Ava!!”

“Kendra did a great job checking in on my two cats! Thank you!”

About: I’ve worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility for over a year now and have a dog of my own. I take care of him along with the help from the family. I’m majoring in animal sciences at Mizzou and hope to become a veterinarian after grad school. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I work Monday through Wednesday, but weekends are totally free! I’m done with school May 8th and after that my other weekdays are also completely open! I have my own dog, Jake, who is very sweet and loves other dogs! I am able to stay at your house if necessary and unfortunately don’t have a fenced in backyard 🙁

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. My dog died two years ago and I really miss having a pet to love. I'm also available for plant care I can work with your schedule if needed. I also do drop bys, too. I love getting out, walking, and playing with doggies, cat, and any pet. I have a new fence and it has a access with no steps for my older doggies. There is also ramps for those shorter dogs. We have lots of love and would to share it with your dogs.

“Emily is awesome. We have some pretty "particular" cats and she handles them wonderfully. When we get home we've returned to animals that clearly missed us, but clearly could've gone longer without us. Best cat-sitter we've had yet.”
