I love animals as they are so much!
Pet care experience
I’ve pet-sat since I was 13 for neighbors and anyone else. I’ve always been animal-obsessed, and enjoy spending time with any and all pets. I’ve watched dogs, cats, and even birds! I also love a good pup walk, and because of my own ardent sniffer, I’m happy to go at the pace dictated by dogs’ curious nose(s)!
Reviews
Callista was great. Nonnie liked her right away!
Callie was absolutely amazing while house-sitting my dog for 3 nights! She gave me multiple updates everyday with pictures and videos. A truly anxiety-free experience and would 100% book again.
Did a fantastic job watching my pets they loved her!
Pleasant, on-time, and took the time to get to know the dogs.
About Callista A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have lived in a variety of situations with different pets throughout my life. I even had my childhood dog with me at college for a while, adjusted to dorm living! I miss my childhood dog a lot as well as the other animals I used to dogsit back at home, and now my roommate’s cat is my primary fulfiller of animal attention. Overall, I am just a super attentive and flexible pet lover. I love learning every animal’s quirks and needs and then fulfilling them. I also understand the worry that owner’s experience when away from their pets, so I’m happy to alleviate that as best I can with updates and video evidence of their contentment.
Information Callista A. would like to know about your pet
I would appreciate knowing general facts about their temperament, like if they have a tendency to pee if you’re too excited when you first arrive, or if certain things trigger them to bark or get scared. I am pretty good at sensing the vibes of animals upon arrival and carefully testing to find out what their boundaries are, but any extra info ahead of time is super valuable.
A typical day
I love to discover the specific types of play every animal enjoys. Some dogs love toys and some prefer to play chase, and I have experience with all kinds of play like that. St. Louis’s parks are so great and I would love to take advantage of them, especially Tower Grove, with dogs I watch. I grew up with a dachshund so I know how much some pups love to sniff and I’m good at patiently giving them the time and space to do so.

Availability
I work part time currently with varied and fairly flexible hours. The longest I’m usually gone in one block for work is 4.5 hours. I’m willing to schedule my work around pet needs if booked enough time in advance. I’m happy to juggle the chaos due to my current situation and general desire to get as much pet-loving in as possible.
