Dog Walkers in Maplewood, MO

“I have an older dog with chronic diseases, and Hope has been so great. It is clear she truly cares about her. She has passed on tips from her veterinary ICU experience and has used her own supplies to help her.”

About: I was raised on a farm where I cared for horses, cats, and dogs. I grew up showing Missouri Fox Trotting horses, and this grew my love for animals. In my free time, I love spending time with animals and have done petting for a three years in the St. Louis area. I am flexible and like to follow your pets' lead and their routine to make sure we both have the best experience possible. I have a variety of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from 5 months old to elderly. I am comfortable administering oral medications, walking, grooming, daily care, and whatever else your pets need throughout my stay. I will love them like my own! I am a PhD student and graduate assistant at Saint Louis University, and my schedule varies depending on the day. I can perform most of my work tasks from home and will communicate anytime I will be gone for more than 4 hours. When house sitting, I live my life in your home while taking care of your pets and adapt my routine to their needs. I always check for any conflicts before accepting a booking to make sure your pet I can best accommodate your pets' needs. I am happy give you insight into what my schedule looks like during your interested days to make sure this is works for the both of us. I am organized, clean, and observant. While at your home, your pet's care is my top priority. I always make sure to leave no trace whenever possible so you come home to a clean space. When house sitting, I send daily updates in the evening to summarize my day with your pets, including lots of pictures. If I notice any odd behaviors, I will always reach out to ask what is normal for your pet and keep you updated with any changes. When dropping in or going on a walk with the dog, I let you know which route we took and provide pictures and/or videos.

“Allison has been dropping in and taking our dog on walks for a few months now and she has been wonderful! She is very prompt, reliable, and communicates well. We would highly recommend!”

Lauren H.

“Audrey was amazing! She is super communicative and has been such a joy to work with. I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for some extra care with their fur baby!”

Dory W.

“Sarah was AMAZING. We had a spontaneous day trip the pups couldn’t join, and Sarah fit them in her schedule last minute! She made time to meet them while we were home so we were all more comfortable. My timid baby hid in his bed and almost refused any walks, water, or food. Sarah was patient and knowledgeable, and was able to coerce him out and appropriately rewarded him. Her care, communication, and adorable pictures kept us from worrying about leaving our babies overnight. HIGHLY recommend!”

“Virginia did a fantastic job with my new puppy Bentley! She came over to meet Bentley before walking him and gave a very detailed summary of everything that took place while walking and playing with him. You can tell that she really loves what she does! I will definitely be contacting Virginia again soon! :)”

Megan M.

“This is our second time booking Lauren and she is great! She gives updates for each dog on each walk which is very helpful knowing if my dogs are having any issues. Not to mention it seems like the dogs love being around her.”

Anna B.

“Responsible and trustworthy dog walker. Takes great care of your pet, and has great updates and photos. Can't go wrong choosing Alicia as your sitter.”

Lucas F.

“Annamaria has been great! Charlie seems to really like her, and she’s been able to get him out of the house every visit so far - he can sometimes be a bit stubborn and refuse to get up lol. I’m very happy with the service so far, and definitely plan to continue having her work with Charlie.”

Lisa B.

“Alexa did great with Louie! She provided pics and gave me great updates which was really comforting!”

Brianna G.

“Chris and Sam were great with our dogs and professional! They were super flexible when it was too hot for the dogs to walk and had excellent communication throughout. I loved getting a video of the dogs mid-walk. We will be booking them for more dog walks and housesitting in the future!”

Taylor K.

“Janina took excellent care of my pup. She was communicative, prompt, and even helped her learn to walk better on a leash! She provided sweet updates that helped me feel at ease.”

About: I’ve had cats my whole life and have experience fostering sick kittens and mama cats. I have lived with dog roommates and loved taking them on long walks and runs! I would love to take care of your fur baby for you. I am a graduate student and work part time. Going on vacation? I have plenty of free time to look after your pets this summer! I will take care of your fur baby with empathy and attention to detail when it comes to their care routine. I live next to a park and would love to take them on long walks or runs!

About: Hello STL pet parents! I am new to Rover but I've taken care of all ages, sizes, and various breeds of dogs since I was young, ranging from Chihuahuas to 110 lb Bouviers. My husband (former dog trainer) and I are the proud dog parents of two friendly rescue chihuahua mixes and we take them everywhere with us when we can and consider them to be our family. We have also had the privilege of caring for a rescue pittie who was skittish around other dogs at first, and a pug lab mix who never met a stranger. I nursed one of my current rescues through heartworm treatment after first adopting her and saw our pug lab mix through chemo when she was diagnosed with lymphoma. I take the care and love of dogs very seriously and believe we owe them the utmost respect. It would be my honor to apply that same philosophy of care and compassion (and fun!) with your beloved family member. I can be available any day of the week, though I prefer notice for weekends. Overall however I can be flexible! If the service is a walk I would prefer that to take place before 6:30 p.m. My yard is fenced in with a privacy fence and if I let dogs into the yard I am always out there with them the entire time. I have two small dogs who are friendly and enjoy gentle playing with others. I'm also comfortable visiting in your home or taking your doggo out on an adventure.

“Laurie was so kind and understanding of my hesitation to let someone else take my dog out of my hands. Olive had a lovely walk, came back nice and tuckered out so that I could continue my work day without worrying about her being bored. We will absolutely be rebooking with Laurie and I’m so glad that this was our first experience with Rover! Can’t recommend enough. ?”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs in my neighborhood over the years including overnight pet sitting for my friends. I have lots of experience from puppies to older dogs. This is my summer job so I am able to put all my time making sure your dogs get an enriching walks. I also have access to my own car. I’m a college student home for the summer so I have complete availability during the weekdays from morning to late night walks. I’m a night owl so perfect for any late night walks needed. I will follow direct instructions for what leash or harness to use. I will not go into your house unless there’s instructions to do so and I will be very respectful when entering/ dropping off your dogs!

About: I love animals and am doing this more as a hobby than to make money. I spent 3 summers working at a doggy daycare/boarding. I am the go to dog/cat sitter in my apartment complex, office, and with my friend group. I love to meet new furry friends! I have a very flexible weekly schedule with work. I usually make my own schedule. I work fully remote two days a week and am off by 3 on Fridays. No work and completely flexible Saturday and Sundays! I care for pets by following their established routines and providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. I believe it’s important to treat every pet as my own!!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up on a farm with both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. From small breeds like chihuahuas to larger, high-energy dogs like huskies and from a lazy Garfield to grandma’s 20 feral house cats, I’ve had hands-on experience understanding different temperaments, exercise needs, and behaviors. Taking care of pets has always been second nature to me—feeding routines, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s personality and building trust with them. I also spent years working at a pet food center, where I learned more about pet nutrition, health basics, and how to help owners choose what’s best for their animals. That experience gave me a deeper understanding of overall pet care beyond just the basics. Whether it’s an energetic dog that needs activity or a more relaxed cat that just wants companionship, I’m comfortable adapting to what each pet needs. I treat every animal like it’s my own. I work a standard 8-4 morning shift Monday-Friday. So I can easily make your pet fit my pre/post work schedule. I am also looking to expand into the weekends, so on those big grocery days or weekend getaways, I have you covered from one off drop in visits to daily walks and check-ins. I have worked with many animals that need medication and serious surveillance so I am able to administer whatever need your dog or cat might have. Doctors appointments, specialized food schedules, rehabilitation exercises, and more! I am not your typical house sitter, I am a trained and responsible professional that is passionate about making your pet feel healthy, happy, safe, and well!

About: If I could rescue all the animals and take them home, I would! I'm all about tail wags, butt wiggles, kisses, and snuggles. LOTS of snuggles! I'm available daily for dog walks or check-ins, including holidays, and I'm happy to work with your schedule. I have experience in administering insulin and other types of medical needs that are vet-approved by you. Every pet is different, so I work with what's best for them. I make sure to keep things familiar and as stress-free as possible. Keeping to their regular routine is especially important. They will miss their hoomans, but I promise to spoil them rotten while you're away!

About: I have cared for pets my entire life. We had various dogs and cats growing up in my family home. My previous roommate had a dog and a cat for many years and I would pet-sit whenever needed! Big or small, I love them all! I work remotely a few days a week, so my schedule is flexible. Weekends are available! Holidays are dependent on my work schedule, but I am usually available! I am available to housesit or pet sit at the owner's home. I cannot housesit at my place at this time. I am happy to dogsit and take extra care of your pets!
