Highlights
Pet care experience
No booking overlaps, your dog only!
I grew up caring for dogs raising AKC certified german shepherds and pug puppies in my hometown of Hermann, MO. My aunt and uncle are both vets, and I would often spend time helping them walk dogs they had boarded. I have experience providing dogs medicine or shots as needed. I keep my calendar updated, and I’m usually booked well in advance! I have a fully remote office job so I'm frequently at home. Looking forward to hearing from you! I have plenty of space: 1 bedroom, 800 square feet upstairs, with 800 square feet clean, dry basement. I can take as many as three dogs at a time, and only ever board one owner's dog(s) at a time to best accommodate your dog(s)!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Nora had a nice time with Ben. We appreciated his daily photos. His mom’s visits with Nora were a bonus.
Ben was great with my dog! Communicated well, sent me photos, and was good to my sweet boy. Would definitely recommend!
Gus had a great vacay with Ben! He even seemed bummed to be home with me afterwards! Gus is typically unsure of strangers but he warmed up to Ben instantly and felt right at home in his house. Ben sent picture updates daily and was super responsive and easy going - I felt totally at ease. We certainly look forward to future vacays with Ben!
Seems like Mowgli had a great time! Had to convince him it was time to go!
Ben’s a great sitter for our shihpoo, Teddy. He is always prompt and communicative, sends frequent picture and video updates, and we always get back our buddy happy and healthy. Highly recommend!
Ben was great! He provided frequent photos and videos and Craig seemed very comfortable with Ben which is great because Craig is a shy/nervous dog. Thanks Ben for taking care of our sweet pup!

Schedule
I have an office job but that's fully remote, so I'm home all day during the day. I own my house, and live near a park, (Tilles Park, 63109) so long walks to blow off energy after work is easily accessible. I own a dog friendly car (Honda Element) so a drive to the park to avoid the traffic on Chippewa Street where I live is no problem at all!

A typical day
I live near a park-Tilles Park. 63109. Plenty of open space. Very dog-friendly neighborhood. I am home predominantly and work a remote office job, so there's plenty of attention and dog walks.
