About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have cared for everything from retiles to rodents to larger 4-legged creatures. I spontaneously rescued a dog 20 years ago which ended up being one of the best decisions of my life. I spent 15 years with my new buddy exploring trails, taking car rides, lazily cuddling on the couch and having lots of one-way conversations. He unfortunately passed away a happy old man but during that time, taught me patience, dedication, playfulness and gave me a special appreciation for dogs. I have vast experience being around a variety of dogs of all shapes, sizes and personality types. I overall just enjoy being around dogs and caring for them (I'm definitely that guy asking strangers if I can pet their dog ). I look forward to getting your animals and providing you a great service if we match. I work from home in an office setting during the week so I would be around the house most of the time to keep tabs on things and for backyard potty breaks (have a fenced in backyard). During the week, I would be available before 8:00am, during my lunch break and after 4:30pm for walks or to stop by your house for check-ins. On weekends, I am not working so I would be available all day. I live next to Tower Grove Park and enjoying spending time outside or walking in the park. I have a cozy home with a small fenced-in backyard that is perfect for small to medium sized dogs. My house is tidy, quiet and currently don’t have any pets, so my home is perfect dogs who prefer that kind of environment. I generally don’t need to leave the house too often so your pet would be hanging with me most of the time. When boarding, I am able to provide two 20 minute walks per day and as many backyard potty breaks as they need.

About: Hello! I’m AJ and I love taking care of any animal. I have had dogs for many years and cats for about just as much time. Rest easy knowing your pet is in loving good hands :) I am available weekdays to care for your pet. I am home on weekends for boarding. Please call or text to let me know your needs My yard is fenced, the home is safe and designed for pet care. I will also provide photos for you of your pets care to keep your mind peacefully at ease

About: I have two German Sheps & a Spicy Tortie. Experienced in medication administration & animals with limited movement abilities. Growing up I have cared for family friends’ and neighbors’ pets when they were away. I have trained all of my own dogs in English or other languages. My current kitty, even has picked up the training words. Pets have always been a huge part of my family’s households. They carry a special place in my heart. I am currently between jobs since moving to STL a couple months ago and would like to do something that I love with my time. My schedule changes all the time and is never the same. Just ask; I would love to help you and your fur babies out between any obligations. I have a locked, fenced small back yard and watchful nosy old lady neighbors for guardians of my property. I will ensure your pets are properly secured and safe between visits or play times. Just let me know their wishes.

About: Happy to help with training - our board collie of 13 recently passed of old age so your pup would have our full love and attention! We both work from home and walk in Tower Grove Park daily - and hike weekly. There’s also a gated yard with a pet door for indoor outdoor access if that’s all your pup needs. Please leave detailed instructions about how we can closely care for your pet. Since we recently had an old man of our own we are happy to administer medications. Brooking worked as a vet assistant and has years of experience in healing practices.

About: With a heart full of love for animals, I treat every pet like family. Your dog won’t just get care—they’ll get a buddy too! My own friendly pup loves to play, so your dog will always have a companion. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just hanging out, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and never alone. I’m especially great with puppies and senior dogs, giving them the attention, patience, and comfort they need. Oh—and if your dog speaks Spanish, no worries… ¡yo también! I work from home, so I’m always around to give your pet the attention they need—day or night. Whether it's potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and available. Your pet will never feel alone, and you can have peace of mind knowing someone is always there. Safety is always my top priority. I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease from the very beginning. I follow any routines or special instructions you provide and always create a calm, secure environment where your pet can relax, play, and be themselves.

“Michelle watched Penny for me on my first day of work. She sent pictures and updated me on how Penny was doing. It was nice to have someone care for my baby so I didn’t have to worry about her. Would recommend her and use her again!”


About: I grew up with animals, and love learning their personalities. I have taken care of a variety of ages and breeds. I can provide medication, activities, and lots of pets! I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I can care for pets after the hours of 5pm on weekdays and anytime on the weekends. I am flexible, outside of weekday working hours 8am-5pm. I feed/water, pet/cuddle, clean up after, bathe/groom, walk/fetch my pet on a daily basis, so depending on the service, I do the same for my clients.

“Kristyn was great! She assured me that my puppy who has separation anxiety and not much exposure to other dogs would be just fine at her home for the day. She was very patient and flexible with my schedule and my puppy was very happy to spend the day with her and her pups! Looking forward to another day!”


About: As an experienced owner & foster mom (Stray Rescue), I understand that your pets are not just animals; they are cherished members of your family. I am dedicated to providing exceptional dog walks, quick breaks, daycare and pet sitting services that cater to the unique needs of your furry companions. I too have relied on pet care services for my own family and am passionate about providing a stress-free experience for both you and your pets, ensuring they receive the utmost care, attention, and love while you're away. When you're ready to schedule a dog walk, quick break, daycare visit or pet sitting, simply reach out and I'll be thrilled to accommodate your needs! I understand the importance of maintaining the schedule you have set for your pets so I will work with you to establish a schedule that meets your needs. Most of the time, I just need a few days’ notice in order to fit you into my schedule. I know how busy things can be and try to be as accommodating as possible. DOG WALKS & QUICK BREAKS When it comes to dog walks and quick breaks, I am committed to keeping your dogs active, happy, and healthy. I will tailor each to suit your dog's energy level and provide them with the exercise and mental stimulation they need to thrive. Whether it's a leisurely stroll through the beautiful streets of St. Louis or an adventurous walk in one of the nearby parks, I've got them covered! - Dog walks last 20-30 minutes and are provided mid-day, when dogs need to be let out the most. Every visit comes with a water refresh, playtime, and a treat. - Quick breaks last 15-20 minutes. Just long enough to get your dog outside for a quick break, water refresh and treat. DAYCARE & OVERNIGHT PET SITTING For my daycare & pet sitting services, I provide personalized, in-home care to ensure your pets feel comfortable and secure. From feeding and playtime to administering oral medication and providing lots of cuddles, I go above and beyond to make your pets feel loved and well-cared for during your absence. While you’re working or traveling, let me care for your pets as an alternative to kenneling or boarding. Because I know that some pets do better without the noise and confusion of a facility.

“Nice person - GREAT communication. Passing through St.Louis and we wanted to go to City Museum. Our dog was not acclimated to city life and pottying oops. Thanks!”
