Dog Walking Matson

About: I have had past experience working at a Vet clinic where I have walked, given medication to, and interacted with multiple dog breeds of all different ages and needs. I have also taken care of a variety of animals for family members and friends for over 5 years. In addition, I have had many household pets of my own since I was 5 years old that I have cared and loved for. My work schedule is very flexible right now so I will be able to spend plenty of time caring for your furry family members! I can dog walk any day of the week, primarily in the mornings and afternoons. I have a flexible schedule when it comes to dog-sitting, I just ask for about a week in advance heads-up so I can work things out with you and my work schedule. I care for all pets with love and respect. I understand that they are not just pets, but family members too and deserve the same love, care, and treatment. I maintain a healthy pet-place environment to ensure the safety of your beloved pets. If needed, I am more than willing to follow any strict schedules or regimens to make sure your furry family member is comfortable, healthy, and feels safe within their own home.

About: I’ve been a dog mom to my Golden Retriever, Ellie, since I was 9 years old, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Along with raising Ellie, I’ve also helped care for family and friends’ pets over the years, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and routines. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own. Whether they love long walks, playing outside, or just getting lots of attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets throughout the week. Outside of class, I have availability for walks, drop in visits, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I enjoy being active, so spending time with animals fits naturally into my routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I will care for them with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own dogs. I will always follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, and provide a safe, calm, and caring environment.

About: I've had pets in my family since I was a kid, and I have taken care of foster animals, family pets and friends pets throughout adulthood. I have taken care of pets who have medication needs and environment needs (scared of thunder and such.) I work for myself, so I am able to work around my work hours accordingly and easily to provide the care that is needed for my clients. My care is adaptive to each pet family's needs and home. I am an observant person and pay attention to the details while caring for pets. I cannot take on daycare or boarding services right now, but I am more than happy to take dogs for walks, care for cats, and pet sit while you're away.

About: Fostered 11 dogs with my local animal rescue groups. While the fosters were under my care, I would work on basic training and making sure I understood them so I could find them the right home. I have had multiple animals (horses,cats,sheep,goats,mules, rabbits, chickens, you get the picture. ) my whole life. Grew up with puppies being born multiple times a year. I had a 114lb lab mix for 8.5 years and he passed in February. So I'm used to the big dogs. Currently we have 2 cats. I am the kids chauffeur. One child is in hillsboro while the others in ofallon. Wed-fri im in ofallon with down time so I am free during school hours. I will love on and give your pets the attention that they require. I'm capable of feeding, watering,playing, giving any oral medication as needed,having the pet "kennel up" when necessary.

About: Hi there! I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have been around cats/dogs my whole life, from puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats! I currently have a dog and a puppy of my own. I am a school speech therapist who is off work for the summer. I would love to make some new furry friends and to help ease your dog mom/dad guilt while you’re vacationing or at work. I will treat your babies as my own, whether it’s giving them snuggles while you’re away, taking your furry friends for a walk or just stopping by to say hello! I understand how hard it is to leave your fur babies. I value open communication and will send you updates with pictures while you are away or busy! If you are interested or have any questions please reach out to me. I’d love to set up a meet and greet :) I am on summer break from work so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to my daily schedule. I am a night owl so I have availability during the night as well. I have a lot of pet experience and would love to provide long walks and visits with your pet while you’re at work or have plans!

“Makenzey is the best. She’s awesome with our little Chihuahua! She’s super reliable and our dog loves her!”

About: I've lived with dogs my entire life and have never met a dog I can't connect with. I love dogs of all sizes and behaviors; I have experience counseling groups of kids at summer camp, so I have no trouble managing dogs in a group or with rowdy tendencies. I truly love all dogs and would love to meet yours! I am currently working part-time in St. Louis on the weekends, so I am available weekdays at any time. I have access to a car and the ability to be flexible with timing and distance as well, just contact me! I can work with any number and any kind of dog! I grew up with a couple dogs of different sizes and I currently live with 2 little ones, so I am comfortable handling any canine situation! This means I am more than happy to take on any responsibility/task requested, such as administering medication, engaging in frequent or constant activity, intently monitoring an animal for an extended period of time, etc. beyond, of course, walking & relieving your best friend(s)! I will always provide dilligent and careful care of both your pets and your home.

About: Hi! I am Lillian and I'm an avid animal lover and would love to hang with your pups or cats!! I have had experience with all ages of dogs and cats and would be comfortable with all age groups. I grew up working with horses, dogs, cats and even nursed wild bunnies to health. I've worked with high energy dogs to the older guys and gals who need some extra coaxing. Some of the animals I've taken care of in the past have needed meds or special food routines ect. so that shouldn't be a issue at all.. I love a long walk or run as well if needed. I look forward to working with you and your pups! I am free all day and would love spending my evenings, mid day or afternoons walking or hangin with your pal. I am available early mornings as well as Sunday and Monday! I currently have three cats and a husky who are bonded and beyond besties. We are avid hikers and campers together and they truly love their adventures. My pup and two cats currently on medication so I am familiar with and comfortable helping out in any way.

About: I am a single mom with two adult children and a dog lover. I do not have a dog of my own. I've always had larger dogs (Golden Doodle and Samoyed). I live an active lifestyle. I'll take your dog(s) for walks, play with them our simply let them hang out if that's more their style. I've been a hard working sales executive for 30+ years and understand the need and importance in finding a reliable person to care for our dogs while we are out of town or unable to get home in the middle of the day. I've utilized Rover sitters myself. I hope that I can meet and exceed your needs in caring for your pets. I will not disappoint. I have a full-time professional job with the ability to work remotely at times. I will only accept a job if it’s a good fit for you, the dog and me. I personalize the experience based on the dog and owner’s needs. I prefer to do a meet and greet so I can understand what will make your pet comfortable and safe.

About: My husband and I have had 2 dogs for ten years and recently adopted a senior dog. We trained the younger dogs ourselves and they are the best part of our day. I have a caretaking job that keeps me busy Tuesday through Thursday, 9 to 5. I am still available for overnights any night of the week, morning and evening drop ins Tuesday through Thursday and all drop ins Friday through Monday. I love my rover job and would do it full time if possible. I am patient and kind with animals and truly enjoy them. I walk my dogs regularly and make them fresh dog food. My older dog took 4 pills every morning before we had to send her over the rainbow bridge.

“She was amazing with my dog. Super great communication and energy to match my pup. He was thrilled with her and getting his exercise. Will be re-hiring for sure.”

About: I have had 12 years of personal experience including 3 years of personal training my newer dog, Rosie! I have past experience from working at petland so I have a basic to intermediate training on taking care of both dogs and younger pups including much needed skills such as handling medication (pills, liquids.), bathing and grooming. I was gone from Rover for a while due to military services, but am back now to continue caring for your furry friends! I am currently a part-time student so that means weekends are completely free for me to take care of your pups or kittens! However, if there is an emergency I am willing to be flexible weekdays as well. We have a large fenced-in backyard that is available for the pup at their disposal! There are a total of 5 family members, including one teenager who is 17 years old. I do have 2 other dogs as well. One older dog named Frankie who is currently 8 years old, and one younger dog named Rosie, who turned 3 this year! Both are very well behaved when it comes to new animals in the house.

“Izzy has been great with our puppy. She I communicates with me about each visit, and always goes above and beyond for our Mopsi. She even taught Mopsi how to shake her paw!”

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.

“Maxwell is great! He’s always on time and goes above and beyond every visit. It’s a huge relief knowing Maxwell takes such good care of my dog while I’m stuck at work. I couldn’t recommend him more.”
