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!

“We love Frances she is amazing she's always on time and Buddy can hardly wait until she gets to our house. I had to have shoulder surgery and couldn't walk Buddy so Rover was a perfect option for us. Thank you Frances for making Buddy's day so exciting he's so much more happier because of you.”

I have previous experience working in a veterinarian office, dog day care, dog walking/pet sitting, and have taken care of dogs in advanced training to become service dogs. Animals hold a very special place in my heart and I enjoy working with them and providing companionship and the highest quality of care! I work a non-traditional part-time job with varying hours throughout the week. I can care for your pets before and after my scheduled work times. I will do whatever the client would like rather that is playing with their dog(s) in their yard outside or taking your dog(s) for a walk.

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!

About: I have 3+ years of experience caring for pets. I grew up with dogs, who all had specific needs. I have experience with special diets and even diabetic dogs.

About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. At one point I was taking care of 3 dogs. Currently helping my roommate train her small dogs! I am able to care for pets most nights and weekends! Can stay overnight or make a quick stop for potty breaks, walks, and lovings. I keep a relatively strict feeding schedule but know when to throw in some extra treats for fun. I do my best to exercise with pets and get their energy out in a safe manner.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m a dog owner myself, to a 3yo and a 14yo beagle mix, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pets when you can’t be there. I’m happy to provide walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, basic medications when needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m also comfortable with large dogs and small and understand that different dogs have very different energy levels and needs. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your dog gets the individual care and attention they’re used to. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to fit walks and drop-in visits into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the week and can often accommodate morning, daytime, and evening visits. I’m happy to provide regular recurring walks or check-ins as well as occasional care when you’re working late, traveling, or just need an extra hand. I know how much trust it takes to let someone into your home and care for your dog. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, and any special needs or house rules. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including large and giant breeds, and I pay close attention to each dog’s body language and comfort level. I’ll make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure and will keep you updated so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I don’t currently have a fur baby of my own so I am looking to care for others’ furry family members. I will love, pamper and care for them as I would my own..... I am looking for long-term relationships, however I would be happy to fill in on a short-term, temporary basis as well. I have a fenced in yard and live close to many parks. If your pet needs one-on-one attention, I am willing to accommodate and only take in one family pet at a time. Your fur baby would get a lot of TLC and one-on-one attention. I have plenty of time in my life to care for and play with your furry family member. I have a fenced in yard. Live close to three nice parks-Carondelet, Jefferson Barracks, Lemay Park. Small dog park in the neighborhood. Lots of places to play nearby. I work part time outside the home. I will be gone for a maximum of five hour blocks when scheduled to work away from home. I have a fenced in yard. My home is very pet friendly. Many pet pillows and toys to choose from throughout the house. I am selective about treats I purchase for my guests. Puppers allowed to be on furniture if the owners are okay with that. I have Ring cameras to keep an eye on the fur babies when I’m away and love to share those videos with the family.

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: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages since I was 14, and I truly love spending time with animals. I can also administer any medications your pet might need — I know how important their health is! I work a 9–5 desk job, so I make it a goal to walk every day to hit my 10k steps and having a furry walking buddy makes it way more fun. I’m also working on paying off some student loans, so Rover is a great way for me to do something I enjoy while earning a little extra. I’d love to meet your pet and give them the care and attention they deserve! Pet care is a meaningful part of my everyday routine. I work a 9–5 desk job, so spending time with animals — whether it’s evening check-ins, after work walks or weekend visits — is the perfect way to stay active, unwind, and do something I genuinely enjoy. I make it a priority to hit my step goal daily, and having a furry companion by my side makes those walks even better. Caring for pets adds balance to my day and gives me a chance to connect with animals. I always strive to make your pets as comfortable as possible. I pay special attention to your pets needs and make sure they are having fun even when their parents are away!

About: Hello! My name is Haley and I am excited to be able to help you in your pet care experience! I am a proud owner of two cats, a puppy and a snake. I have spent my life growing up around animals and training them as well. I know what love and care is needed for your animals as I will take care of them the same I would take care of mine. I have come to learn that patience, love and fun are the best qualities to have when caring for any animals. I will be sure to take the time and dedication that is needed to ensure your animal feels safe, loved and well taken care of while you are unavailable. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask! * I work with a flexible schedule, which allows me to consistently build pet care into my daily routine. * As a pet owner myself, animal care is already a major part of my everyday life. * I intentionally plan my schedule to give pets reliable attention instead of rushed drop-ins. * I prioritize: * Feeding and fresh water * Playtime and enrichment * Litter box cleaning and maintenance * Medication routines if needed * Quality interaction and companionship * I understand how important consistency and routine are, especially for cats adjusting to new people or schedule changes. * I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care feels like a natural and rewarding part of my routine rather than an extra obligation. * I create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment for every pet in my care. * I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, medications, playtime, and comfort preferences. * I respect every animal’s personality and boundaries and never force interaction before they feel comfortable. * I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall wellbeing. * I keep litter boxes, feeding areas, and pet spaces clean and sanitary. * I double-check doors, gates, and safety concerns to help prevent escapes or stress. * I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel comfortable while away. * In clients’ homes, I treat both the pets and the space with care, cleanliness, and respect.

“This was only our first meeting with Brad. We booked him for 1 hour prior to a planned pet sitting stayover to meet us and our loving boy Jackson. To familiarize Brad with Jackson's routine, we wanted him to join us while we took Jackson on his daily walk. Brad was attentive and asked thorough questions about Jackson's care. They got along right away. We feel more comfortable having scheduled a longer initial meet. It gave us more peace of mind in knowing that the care and well being of our sweet baby and the care and regard for our home will be in good hands!”

About: I've cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents, and I treat every pet like they're my own. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to detail, whether that's following feeding schedules, giving medications, cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water, maintaining habitats, or providing playtime and companionship. I have 4 years of volunteer experience caring for senior animals, so giving medications and providing extra care is no big deal for me. I'm comfortable caring for senior pets, shy animals, and pets that need a little extra patience. My goal is to make sure your pets stay happy, safe, and stress-free while giving you peace of mind with reliable, loving care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets I'm caring for to ensure they receive timely visits, walks, feedings, playtime, and plenty of attention. I believe consistency is important, so I do my best to maintain your pet's normal routine while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and any special needs. I am also trained in animal CPR, which gives an added level of preparedness in case of an emergency. I respect your home as if it were my own and make sure pets remain secure, comfortable, and stress-free. I also pay close attention to changes in behavior or health and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

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!

About: Hi! I’m Sam! I’m 33 years old and I have been a Registered Veterinary Technician for over 12 years. I have experience in general practice as well as emergency medicine so helping to give your fur babies their medicine won’t be a problem! I am also certified in animal CPR. I currently have 2 dogs of my own named Kleio and Quinn as well as a bearded dragon named Pebbles and a kitty named Soot! I look forward to helping your fur kids stay happy and healthy while you’re away! 🫶🏻 I’m currently working full time but am available before and after work for walks/drop in visits and can do lunch time visits if the distance isn’t too far. I always strive to keep my fur friends happy and occupied. I love play time and enjoy helping to enrich their lives with walks or snuggles on the couch.

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: I received my first puppy at 14, trained 4 dogs- all from different breeds and sizes. I say 20 years experience because I have always had a love for dogs and enjoy them at every age. I have walked, fed, bathed, house-sat, and loved & cuddled on those fur-babies! Friends, family members, co-workers, friends of family, you name it, I’ve cared for their animals. I have worked with fish, geckos, small rodents, cats and dogs. Administered medication as needed. And given as much love as they let me! I am late to bed and early to rise which is helpful for tricky schedules. I walk my dog several times a day and we play as much as her little legs can handle, so I definitely have to energy to spend. I do not have any scheduled trip for this summer or so far for fall. My schedule currently involves playing favorite Aunt on occasion to pick up and drop off kiddos. Otherwise you can find me doing a puzzle or working on a project at home. I currently only have one dog, a chihuahua- Queen of my fenced in yard. She has a feeding schedule of twice a day. We use specific words- “cookie” for instance instead of treat. That would be something to learn as all families are different with terminologies. Multiple walks a day or just playtime if we’re not feeling like stretching the little legs. My dog has care at my home if I would be caring for pets at their homes. We enjoy cooking dinner every night (she watches me cook) and snuggles with a good episode on HGTV in bed.
