Dog Walking in O'Fallon

About: With over 3 years of experience living with dogs and cats, I treat every pet like family. I offer a calm, trustworthy presence that keeps tails wagging. I’m currently working remotely, so caring for my maltese typically has been a breeze! I maintain a feeding, grooming, exercise, and mental enrichment routine with my dog. I feed my dog 2x a day and walk her for 30 minutes in the evening. Since she’s crate trained, she enjoys lounging around her bed while I work.

About: Hi, I'm Carter, I grew up in O'Fallon, and have always loved animals. I've been taking care of pets for friends and family for over 12 years and decided to try and expand my love of animals into a little business. I love to work with active dogs who love to play fetch, but I am also experienced with senior dogs who need gentle care and cats. I am a big Cardinals fan and work at Busch Stadium during baseball season. I am currently working part time and have a flexible schedule to provide pet care. I am available seven days a week, including nights and weekends. I am responsible, dependable and have reliable transportation. I will work with you to provide your pet the care they deserve and I will respect your home.

“Amazing experience. Gabby was a very easy going and cared well for our dogs. She is a professional and I highly recommend her. Once you meet her, your mind will be at ease knowing your pets and safe and sound in her care. Great communications throughout the experience. 100% recommend and will call on her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Olivia! I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and can’t imagine it any other way. I grew up with both cats and extra-large dog breeds like Newfoundlands and Labs, and now I share my life with two of my own—a sweet GS/Heeler mix named Cinder ❤️ and a lovable cat who keeps us both in check. I’ve been pet sitting since middle school, and I’m the go-to pet person for friends and coworkers. I’m also a passionate animal advocate, and I always aim to treat every pet like they’re my own. Currently, I offer dog walking and drop-in visits. Whether your pup needs an energy-burning walk or your cat just needs some company and a clean litter box, I’m happy to help! I genuinely enjoy being outdoors and connecting with animals of all kinds. I have experience with: • Large and giant breed dogs (Labs, Newfoundlands, German Shepherds, etc.) • Reactive dogs and leash-sensitive pups • Senior pets, medication routines, and special care needs • Cats, including shy or picky personalities Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a long walk, my goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for. ⸻ Helpful Info to Share With Me To give your pet the best care possible, please let me know: • Any medical conditions or physical limitations • Behavioral quirks (especially on walks or with new people) • Triggers, fears, or specific routines that help them feel safe Thanks so much—I’d love the chance to meet your furry family member! 🐾 Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily and weekly routine. Every day, I dedicate time to feeding, exercising, and playing with pets to keep them happy and healthy. I also set aside regular blocks of time for grooming, administering medications if needed, and giving lots of attention and affection. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I make sure to create a consistent, caring environment that meets each pet’s unique needs. When I provide walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort above all else. During walks, I keep pets securely leashed and stay aware of their surroundings to avoid any hazards. For drop-in visits, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain a familiar and calm environment, making sure pets get the care, attention, and companionship they need while their family is away. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me, so I communicate openly and respect each pet’s individual personality and needs.

“Starr was an awesome dog helper this past month. She was super nice and easy to work with. She’s an excellent communicator and it was so great to be able to depend on her for my older dog and and my puppy. Thank you Starr! Good luck on your move!”

“I cannot recommend Matthew enough for his exceptional care and attention to detail when it comes to taking care of furry friends. Knowing that your beloved pet is being looked after with such love and care allows you to enjoy your time away without worry. I loved the pics provided and updates. He really made him feel loved and part of his family while dropping in.”

About: Hey! Thanks for checking out my profile! I love walking, in fact, I have a 5k event I am participating in at the end of this month. Know that I average, per 30 minute walk, 1 mile. If we walk for 60 minutes your dog will have completed 2 miles. Feel free to schedule last minute! I prefer to do walks when it isn’t super hot outside. I do love working out either in the morning or late afternoon. Call if you’re going on a cruise or other vacation! Pets who stay over will need a kennel. Dogs are allowed in a certain part of our home and are taken out for walks during the day as to avoid built up energy. :)

About: I’ve had many pets throughout my life! I’ve had dogs, cats, a bunny and a hedgehog! I’ve worked for an independent pet sitter before! I’ve taken a couple training classes with my own fur babies so I know a little bit about training. I’ve helped nurse kittens as well! I work M-F 8am-5/6pm & have weekends off. I do sometimes change my work schedule around for pet visits so I charge a cancellation fee for cancellations that are 2 days before. My own pets are kenneled throughout the day when no one is home. They go outside regularly about every 2 hours when someone is home. I feed them early morning & when I get home from work. We work through our training exercises daily! I take care of my clients pets however they have asked me to and treat them as if they are my own fur babies! Your pets will know nothing but love & fun when I’m with them!

About: Please use my promo code… https://www.rover.com/sit/rosal48641 I have a Great Pyrenees and am used to large dogs and no issue handling smaller pets as well. I periodically watch pets for friends and family. Distance and time are very flexible most days. Let me know if you need assistance and I can find a way to make it work. Periodic walks are necessary for pets of all sizes and for humans as well. :) Favorite part of my day with my Pyrenees is long walks and sunshine.

About: I am a lifelong pet lover and proud dog mom of two! With 8+ years of experience, I know every pet has their own personality—whether they’re zoomie champions or cuddle pros. I’d love to give your furry family the same love and care I give my own! As a full-time remote worker with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. I take regular breaks for walks, playtime, and check-ins, ensuring pets get the attention they need. On weekends, I’m available for overnight stays to provide extra care and companionship. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect as my own. I follow all client instructions closely, from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes, to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. Safety is my top priority—I ensure secure doors, leashes, and environments at all times. I also provide regular updates with photos, so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!

About: Quick note for new clients - please do NOT request me unless you can respond back within 24 hours or are unsure about plans/wanted arrangements. I genuinely mean no offense, but I am tired of being given requests where the client doesn't answer back. I can only have a certain # of requests at a time and when you don't respond, you take away other people's ability to book with me! Please be considerate of my already established clients and other possible new clients. Please and thank you. Hello there and let me give you an introduction towards my experience and me as a person👋 Experience wise I have raised over 45+ foster care animals in my family household growing up ranging from Pugs to Rottweilers to Great Danes to Belgian Malinoise to Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to GSP's and many more breeds, have previously petsit for friends and family, and I also have professional experience from my previous job working at Country Estate Kennel in Shiloh for about half of a year as an Animal Technician. I am experienced in dog bathing, low level grooming (brushing, combing, light trimming, removing matted fur/hair), and so forth. I am familiar with giving medication if your pet has that as a requirement, such as seizure medication, diabetic medication, and so forth. I also will give walks for each animal if preferred for free for your pet if you are booking me for house sitting, and lastly I also do trimming of nails as well. What else could you ask for from a pet sitter!?😁 I am glad to offer truly professional care, while maintaining a good relationship with my clients as I understand that our pets are like our children to us, and if they are to be under my care, I am to see them and take care of them as though they were my very own pets such as my girlfriend's Foxfire Lab and my Mongolian Gerbil. When it comes to my schedule/availability I update my schedule regularly every few days. I do not accept drop-in's or dog walking before 11 AM or after 8 PM. I do not do physical meet and greet's unless you have already booked with me for the request, if you are unsure about your plans, please do a online video chat with me here through the Rover app. My availability for meet and greets are anytime before 11 AM and after 5 PM. I am unavailable on the 18th of every month as I am always out of town on that day. Those are my only restrictions on bookings. When it comes to dogs, as much as I love and adore them, sadly I have not owned one myself since my sophomore year of highschool after my childhood dog Gabe passed away from Cancer. He lived to reach the age of 13, and was always happy and well taken care of. We made sure to properly feed him to keep him at a good BMI, made sure he went outside and got proper exercise by running around in the backyard or playing with toys together such as tug of war with rope. He was beyond well taken care of and spoiled. When it comes to your pet I would like to be told what behaviorisms and daily rituals they are familiar with in your household to make them most comfortable and what they're favorite activities are so I can make the most out of your pets experience in being taken care of and give them a safe and happy experience. I do currently own 2 Gerbils named Hiro and Rain who are very much spoiled and well managed on their health, and also share in taking care of my girlfriend's Firefox Lab who is a bundle of energy. Currently she is in training for hunting and is just as equally spoiled as my Gerbils.

About: ** If you live in SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, i have base access so it is not an issue. ** I have experience with taking care of neonatal kittens. I have bottle fed my kittens, trained them to use litter box and eat solid food. I have five cats on my own and I always pet sit for my friends and relatives. Unfortunately, since I have five cats, one of them with really bad anxiety when it comes to dogs, I can only offer boarding to cats. For your puppy/dog, I can definitely do a drop in visit and/or take them out for a walk! We have a cat room so I am always available to board cats. If you would like me to take your cat for a walk/stroll around the neighborhood, I have a cat stroller - I can do that for an additional small fee, just let me know. For drop ins and dog walk, I have a full time job so during the work days, I can do it before (6AM) / after work (5PM), or during my lunch break (11AM-noon). Same schedule as well during the weekends but I am more flexible if we need to change the time/frequency. I have a fenced yard at home and there is also a dog park half a mile down our place. I also have a dedicated cat room for my 5 cats.

About: I've been taking care of dogs my entire life. My father bred labradors, and I've been sitting for my grandparents for the last 15 or so years. I recently started sitting for a friend and have decided to make it a steady source of income I'm an artist that wants to use dog sitting and walking to have a steady flexible income that allows me to be creative in my personal life. Our pitbull Stella gets the best that we can provide her. As a genuine dog lover, I will provide the best care that is in my ability to provide in your home.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young. Growing up in a military family, moving every few years was the norm. The only thing that remained constant for me was my love and dedication to animals. Over the years, I've spent a lot of my free time training them, caring for them and furthering my knowledge. Animals are definitely my special interest lol! These days I call myself mom to 2 dogs and 3 kitties who I absolutely cherish & adore. While I’ve only been on Rover since 2021, my experience extends throughout my whole life and I've developed my own unique skill set through hands-on work, research and passion. Here’s what makes me unique: • I value transparency--you'll always know what’s going on • Certified in CPR & first aid • Skilled in reading dog body language & behavior • Experienced with senior & high-energy pets, shy/fearful animals and separation anxiety • Confident with medication administration • Years of fostering animals & volunteer experience, including pregnant mamas and bottle babies • Knowledgeable in various training methods--I've trained my own dogs in obedience & even competed in dog agility for years. Not to brag, but my pup knows over 60+ tricks! :) • Well-versed in various dog & cat dietary needs--including raw diets. • Comfortable with exotic pets (birds, turtles, rabbits, ferrets, rats, fish, sugar gliders, etc.) As someone who has been on the owner side of Rover, I know how hard it is to entrust someone with your pets. I'm more than happy to follow your pets' usual routine and keep them as comfortable as possible while you're away. I also plan to provide frequent photos/updates of your babies for your peace of mind! :) Every home and situation is different, so my rates aren’t set in stone. If you have a special request such as needing constant 24 hour care for your pet, questions, or just want to talk things through, feel free to reach out. I'd love to see if we're a good fit for each other! I’m currently going to school online so I’ll have plenty of time to devote to your babies! Typically, I have regular drop-in clients scheduled throughout the week so I tend to be out and about during the day. If needed we can discuss this more—I’m more than happy to accommodate your pets’ schedule to the best of my ability! I’m here to make your pets as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away—So whatever your typical routine looks like, we can make that happen!

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life, and started working at a vets clinic about 3 years ago. I have experience feeding, medicating (including insulin), and keeping pets happy and healthy during your long trips. I work part time currently with a split shift. My lunch break is plenty long to go stop by to check on your babies, and can stop by before and after i get off as well! When sitting in your home, I will go over my schedule with you and figure out what will work best for your baby. Wether that be walks, feeding times, or when to give medicine if needed.

About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life. Since I was born, I have always had a dog. At home in St. Louis, I have two German Shepherd's and love and miss them so much. I am used to larger breed dogs and have helped trained a few puppies. I can also care for smaller breed dogs and help with anything needed! I am almost always free!! I do not have much going on since I work a remote job. I love hanging out with animals more than people! I have a dog leash that I always use when walking anywhere with a dog. I have lots of friends with pets in my neighborhood that love to play!
