Dog Walking Mehlville

About: I have been dog-sitting since I was a teenager for family and friends, and I have grown up with pets for most of my life. I have experience with drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, allergies, and special diet/medication needs. My parents also had a boxer who tends to have lots of scabs and other skin-related ailments so bandages and first aid were common in my house. I’m a freelancer so my schedule varies week by week. My schedule during the weekdays can get pretty full with my regulars and main job. However, I’m always happy to add another furry friend to the calendar! Safety is always my highest priority for any job. I am willing to do what you consider the safest and most comfortable for you and your pet(s). I also want you and your pet(s) to be comfortable when I'm caring for them. A happy dog is the best dog!

About: I have had dogs and cats growing up. I have dog sat for friends/family for many years. I have a good sized yard with a privacy fence. Your fur baby will have plenty of room to roam around or even sun bathe in the sun room if they want. I want to share my passion and love with all of the fur babies. I do currently work full time. I am off sundays and mondays. I am flexible with my schedule though and can take off whenever I need or leave work on my breaks. I have a fenced in yard with a privacy fence and plenty of toys to keep your fur baby busy. They can also relax inside if they are wanting to lounge.

About: Worked at horse barns for 3 years. Taken care of my brothers ranch, or inside pets for other family members while on vacation. Also grew up with a large variety of animals! I’m in college but I am willing to house sit with your animals since it is most convenient for me - unless your address is too far away my usual routine. We can compare schedules to see if I am a good fit! I can be trusted to follow your usual safety measures at your own home. I respect any house boundaries with your personal space and boundaries with your pet! Trust is such an important aspect of letting someone into your own space and taking care of your fur babies.

About: I’ve had a pet for as long as I can remember, love caring for any kind of animal baby for you:) have experience like no other and with all kinds of pets. I like to say I have the start of a mini zoo. I’ve worked at a doggie day care and in addition to walks, play time, and cuddling time ( if pet enjoys cuddling) I can give baths, trim nails and brush them as well. I am comfortable with any kind and size of pet you may have and have experience with obedience training as well. I am looking forward from hearing back from you and meeting your precious pet. I am a part time emt trying to make extra money so I can move out of my parents and buy more animals, since I’m not allowed to get anymore until I do so😔 I am able to wake up early for scheduled routines you may have for your baby or if needed to be let out at certain times of the night. I’m able to make my own schedule for work so I can be pretty flexible but do like timely notices. I have and big fenced in back yard and plenty of parks around my house for your pets entertainment. I also have a quit home with one almost 2 year old female German Shepard named Dakoda who is a curious pup that likes to make friends. Tag or catch me is her favorite game to play in the yard. I also have a lizard, snake and bird that won’t interact with your pet, except the bird she might try and talk to them if I show them her cage.

About: I love dogs and cats and have some extra time so I couldn’t think of a better way to fill it. I have previous experience working as a dog walker. I’ve had dogs and cats as pets and feel comfortable with all sizes. I’m always the go to dog sitter for my friends and I really enjoy it. I think it’s really fun to get to know others dog personalities. I have my own transportation and am reliable. I really value good communication and will strive to be as available as I can. I’m super over protective of my pets and will definetly extend that with yours so you can feel comfortable when leaving your met with me. I’ve never met a dog I didn’t get along with! My schedule is lighter this year at work so I can be available evenings, nights and weekends mostly. Can also accommodate early mornings if needed. I have experience with dogs in crates and am comfortable using different ones. I take safety very seriously and would treat your pet as my own.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for about 5 years now. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether they love to play or just want someone to hang out with. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. I am a student at Maryville University so I can do check in’s and walks in the mornings and evenings. I’m also flexible on Fridays and weekends and will do my best to work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions, make sure your pet has fresh water, food, exercise, and plenty of attention. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep everything clean, and send updates with photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. My first word was my neighbor’s dog’s name, Ashley! I have been a trusted dog, cat, lizard, and fish sitter for 10 years, and would love to continue! I have experience with elderly and young dogs, and administering medication. I recently got a full time position and am looking for something to do on the side. I am punctual, and patient. I know how it feels to love a pet with your whole heart (even if that pet wasn't mine). I have weekends free, and am free for walks around lunch and in the evening on Mondays and Wednesdays. I have never met a dog I didn’t love and I would love to meet yours! I’m currently working full time but work from home Monday and Friday. Right down the street from Tower Grove Park, where it’s sniff heaven! I love to go for walks and can fit them in the morning, evening and around noon. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but I’m more than happy to go on long walks and training/sniff activities to work through some energy and add some mental stimulation!

“Tara did a great job walking Maddie in the blistering heat . She accepted the job on the same day as I was sick and unable to leave my apartment. She made sure Maddie didn’t get overheated, but got all her “business” done. I will certainly use her again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life! I love dogs in all sizes and have the most experience with chihuahuas from puppies to much older puppies. I love going for walks and going places with doggies but I’m also not opposed to a leisurely stroll or hanging out on the couch! Currently I am waiting to start my full time position so I have lots of availability and can start immediately! I am doing this because I love animals and I need a little extra cash to get me by! I am willing to go for walks and do drop ins. I have recently been house sitting for family members with multiple dogs and I have taken those dogs on walks, to the vet, and even to camp. We play and hang out and I spend the night with them!

About: Hello! I am 19 years old and currently attend college. I have many years of pet care experience of various different animals since I was in elementary school. I enjoy hanging out and taking care of pets more than anything and I’d love to make sure your animals get genuine care that leaves them with the ability to live a long, happy, and healthy life! When I am home from college during spring break, summer, and winter break, my schedule is moderately flexible. I am able to fit in pet care whenever and have plenty of time to play with and take care of my cats and dogs every day. When I am at your home I will make sure it is a safe environment for the animals and that there is nothing they can be harmed by. I love going on walks at any time of the day as well as playing with the dogs or cats with toys, we can even work on some simple training together! Your pet will be safe, comfortable, happy, and healthy when they are in my care. :)

About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and have about 10 years of hands on pet care experience. I’m a proud English Bulldog owner, so I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, giving medication, potty breaks, walks, playtime, bathing, and regular grooming. My bulldog requires daily skin-fold and tail-pocket cleaning, so I’m also familiar with pets who need a little extra attention and care. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pets with someone new. I treat every animal like they’re my own, follow their routines closely, and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. Whether your dog is full of energy or would rather spend the day lounging around, I’m happy to give them the attention they deserve! I work Sunday through Tuesday, which leaves me with plenty of flexibility Wednesday through Saturday for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays! I can also accommodate some bookings on my workdays depending on the timing. I enjoy spending my free time with animals and am happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that works for everyone. My goal is to make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets and home in someone else’s care. I treat every pet like my own and do my best to keep their normal routines consistent while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any extra care they may need. I’m also mindful of keeping doors and gates secured, maintaining a clean environment, and respecting your home. I love sending pictures and updates so you can see how your pets are doing and have peace of mind while you’re gone!

About: I work well with every breed of dog! Since I could be home alone, I’ve known how to care for animals. I have owned many different dogs over the years, as well as dog sat for family friends! My love for animals and people is immaculate. I am currently unemployed but looking for a part-time job. Your animals would come first as I would let any new job aware of Rover. (: I will abide by any rules you have following your animal. I will keep them on your trained schedule and make sure everything you need done is done.

About: I have been working in the animal field for 16 years. I also have experience administering medications of all types. I do try to keep to the animal's schedule as best as possible. I'm currently between jobs so I am able to keep your animals active. Once I'm employed again, I'll be able to fit your animal's needs before and after working hours. I prefer keeping your animals in their own home as it is less stressful for them. I keep as close to their schedule as I can on a daily basis.

About: What sets me apart is my deep, practical experience caring for both dogs and cats, paired with a calm, attentive, and reliable approach to pet care. With 10 years of experience with cats and 3 years of hands-on experience with dogs, I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs. My schedule is completely flexible! Because I currently work a part-time job with adjustable hours, I am able to set my schedule around your pet's needs. Whether you need drop-ins, house sitting, or daily walks, I can easily adapt to match your pet's routine and give them the dedicated attention they deserve. I live in a secure apartment in the Shrewsbury neighborhood. While my indoor space is cozy, your pet will enjoy a clean, clutter-free environment where they can relax comfortably. I am blessed with a large grass backyard right outside, perfect for outdoor play, potty breaks, and fresh air. Additionally, our neighborhood is safe and walkable, so I can easily take your dog on regular walks to ensure they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation tailored to their energy level.

About: I have 10+ years volunteering at Petco cleaning cages and caring for cats. My parents have 2 dogs/2 cats which I helped care for growing up. I have lots of experience walking/running/playing with dogs as both of mine are extremely high energy! I am a current graduate student with early morning availability/evening availability. I pretty open availability on weekends and would be open to holiday work if I am in town as well! My apartment does not suit animals so I am looking to care for pets outside my home! I am willing to drive to help care for your pets.
