**I currently have two dogs of my own, but they stay at my partner's home if I am boarding your dog!** Hi! I’m a PhD student who has called St. Louis home for the past five years, and I’m currently in the final stages of writing my dissertation. The good news for your pets? I work from home, so I have plenty of time for walks, belly rubs, playtime, and keeping your furry friends company while you’re away! I am located in The Grove with access to a dog park at my apartment complex as well as walking distance to both Forest Park & Tower Grove Park for pups that enjoy long walks. One of my dogs loves people and dislikes other dogs, while the other one enjoys dogs and is wary of people so I have experience with a variety of dog personalities and their differing needs. Whether your pet is a professional cuddler, an energetic adventurer, or simply here for the treats, I’d love to spoil them ◡̈

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her! She is one of those people you immediately feel comfortable trusting with your pets because you can tell how much she genuinely loves and cares for animals. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, patient, and treats every pet like they are her own. One of the things I appreciate most about her is how communicative and dependable she is. She will keep you updated, make sure she understands your pet’s routine and needs, and give them all the love and attention they deserve. She is the type of person who notices the little things and will go out of her way to make sure your pet is happy, comfortable, and safe. As a pet owner, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your animals in someone else’s care, and she is genuinely someone I would trust with mine without a second thought. Your pets will be loved, spoiled, and incredibly well cared for with her. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for a sitter or dog walker—you really could not ask for a better person to care for your furry family members!

Molly watched my doggie while I was out of town, and she was a total dream! She was sweet, communicative, and I was confident at all times that Princess Leia was well taken care of! When I picked Leia up, she seemed relaxed and happy. I will 100% be using Molly again!

Molly was amazing with our 2 dogs! She was very punctual & always has a smile on her face! Frank & Lilly were always excited to see her & enjoyed their walks. I highly recommend Molly! I’m sad we moved out of town. We ALL miss her🐶💜🐶

Molly cared for our two dogs, one a recent rescue for a whole week. She was patient and took the time to learn his many quirks and needs. Molly followed our directions and gave us daily updates on both dogs and immediately reached out with any concerns. Both dogs were walked daily, sometimes multiple times, and she was amazing with our anxious walker. We highly recommend Molly for any and all dog or pet needs. Her experience, calming presence, and love for animals, will provide you with comfort when you are away from your fur baby. Your pet will be treated well and loved under Molly's care!

Molly cared for our new rescue dog Annie shortly after we adopted her. We had a planned trip and were worried about leaving Annie. Annie is very timid after being in the shelter for almost two years. Much to our relief Annie bonded quickly with Molly and was very well taken care of during our absence. Molly walked her frequently and followed all of our directions regarding feeding and house rules. We would highly recommend Molly.

Schedule

Since I work from home while finishing my PhD dissertation, pet care fits pretty naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take plenty of breaks throughout the day for walks, playtime, and potty breaks. 🐾 My schedule is much more “read a paper, take a dog for a walk, write a paragraph, give belly rubs” than a traditional 9-to-5. I can easily adapt to the schedule of your pup! I’m happy to build pet care into my day and give your pets plenty of attention rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Having a furry coworker around is honestly a pretty great dissertation-writing perk! 😂

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or theirs, I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I always keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide plenty of supervision and companionship throughout the day. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can see what your furry family member is up to. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe & happy!
