About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I currently have a very chill boxer mix who is a total snuggle bug. All dogs deserve the chance to be their best dog self. Im currently off for the summer (I’m a teacher). I have flexibility and also the ability to be present and get to know each pupper. I have a large house with gated porches and a soon to be fenced backyard. I love walks, adventures, and getting to know your pup.

About: Hi! My name is Elly, and I’m currently a college student at Kirkwood. I have hands on experience working at an animal hospital as a kennel attendant, where I cared for both cats and dogs. My responsibilities included feeding, administering medications, providing playtime, and taking pets out for potty breaks. I also grew up on a farm, so I’m comfortable working with larger animals and understand the responsibility and care they require. I’ve always been a huge animal lover. I’ve owned a variety of pets including a hedgehog, ferrets, and currently a Mini Australian Shepherd.

I make sure each pet gets the attention they need based on their personality. For cats, that may be playtime, enrichment, or calm companionship. For dogs, I provide walks, exercise, and interaction to keep them happy and active. I’m comfortable administering medications for both cats and dogs and use a calm, patient approach especially with shy, nervous, or high energy pets. I also monitor their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I keep owners updated so you always know how your pet is doing. In my own home, I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment. With my background in animal care including rescued cats and experience around multiple dogs I’m confident handling a variety of temperaments and needs. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own while you’re away.

About: I have been asked by many friends to care for dogs, cats, birds, lizards and houseplants. One time, I had to give dialysis treatment to a poor girl who got bit by a snake! Another time, I was asked to let a cat out until he returned home. I've moved a lot recently, and am looking forward to settling down so I can establish a zoo. Until then, I'm looking forward to taking good care of your non-human friends and family. I'll be available most days throughout the summer. My landlord doesn't allow pets, otherwise I would board as well. Just let me know what you need and when! Animals have different personalities and needs. So it all depends, but love and attention are always a must. I've given medical treatments to dogs, including diabetes injections and have give cats baths, if that says anything. Some dogs like it when I jog with them, others want a slower pace. So, it all depends on the situation.

About: I have raised 2 puppies and several cats and I'm the mom of a frenchie. We love going for walks and being outside. My dog plays well with others and would welcome a new friend for the day. I'm just working part time right now so I would have plenty of time for a drop-in visit and a walk. I'm available Mon 10am-12:30pm Tues 8am-12:30pm Wed 8am-2pm Thurs 8am-12:30pm Fri 8am-2pm. Mon-fri I would still be available for drop-in or walks after 5pm but I would have my kids with me. Please reach out even if your requested time doesn't match my availability. I still may be able to accommodate you. I do not have a fenced yard which is why I'm not offering for pets to stay in my home. My dog is trained to stay nearby so we haven't needed to get a fence yet. I am able to accommodate walking dogs of all sizes and all activity levels. I can work with dogs who pull or who are easily distracted. I'm a mother to 4 children and a dog so I definitely have patience! I'm currently working part-time so I have open afternoons, evenings and weekends. I work 7am-1pm Mon-Fri, but I can be flexible with my start and end times. I will care for your pet like they are my own and make sure to follow all routines and instructions.
