Dog Walkers in Overton, MO

“Best walker I’ve had yet! Actually took my dog to a nice trail instead of just walking around the neighborhood, and sent plenty of pictures that showed she was clearly elated! I can tell she has a true love for dogs :)”

About: I grew up on a farm where our pets were always family members and treated with love and respect. I have two rescue dogs myself. I am happy to keep my dogs separated from clients. I am fortunate that my parents have a farm and welcome their grand pups in case of overlaps in sittings. My girls do great with most other pets, however I understand every animal has their own personality and comfort zone. I respect and do things on the owner and the pet’s terms. I strive to provide an experience where you feel you are leaving your loved ones with people who care as much as you. I worked the corporate world since college and decided I would take a break and enjoy a summer with my own fur babies. I have always been the go-to dog sitter for close friends and family. I quickly received more requests by word of mouth with my flexible schedule this summer. I am currently working on starting my own company for pet products making my schedule open and flexible! I live in Boonville, MO. I attend regularly conservation areas, dog parks, and my parents wooded farm outside of Glasgow, MO. My home is an apartment. I have an outdoor deck with stairs that access a private fenced in area that is pet safe. My home is equipped with a dog door for my own pups to use at their leisure along with security cameras. Plus I am only a block from Katy Trail access!

About: I am not afraid to give medications, I walk as long as the client desires, I don't cut corners with the care I offer. I make my clients' schedules my priority. Pet-sitting is a full-time passion for me. My schedule is basically open. Filling my time with pet- and house- care also fills my heart. This is what I love, helping people and the animals in their lives. I get all the vet and emergency info when I first meet the client. I ask about plant care, mail retrieval, the pets' typical schedule, and locations of important and necessary items for the animals' care. I take care of things the way I would want my own house and pets taken care of.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life! Learning and interacting with dogs is an amazing gift we have and I’m glad to be a part of your dog’s world! I work in JBLM. My wife (SAHP) and I have flexible schedules. Your pet will be cared for in our cool home and someone will always be with the fur babies. I have two big rotties that can keep any dog company and are crate trained so all dogs can be separated or play together. I have a big fenced yard suitable for any sizes.

“Margaret was punctual and very nice! She helped my family out in a pinch and did a wonderful job. Would highly recommend to others going forward!”

About: As a lifelong animal lover with over 34 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I understand how much your pets mean to you. I'm committed to giving them the same love, safety, and personalized attention they get at home. Plus, I'm certified in pet first aid and trained in positive reinforcement techniques, so you can trust your furry friends are in good hands Caring for pets isn't just part of my routine; it's my absolute joy! My days are all about making sure these furry friends get the love, exercise, and attention they deserve. Mornings kick off with walks or potty breaks, followed by feeding and playtime. Throughout the day, I fit in more walks, drop-ins, or daycare sessions tailored to each pet's unique needs. One of the best parts? My home has an amazing acre of fenced-in yard where pets can run free and play to their heart's content. Plus, I've even installed a DIY doggy door so they can come and go as they please. It's the perfect setup for them to feel right at home. Evenings are all about longer walks, cuddles, and winding down together before bed. On a weekly basis, I make sure to balance pet care with my personal schedule, so I'm always available for your pets, whether it's during the week or on weekends. My goal is to create a safe, loving space where pets feel like they're part of the family. For me, pet care isn't just a job—it's my passion! I have a fenced yard and one high energy pup to keep your dog company or if they are a low energy type even better cuz then they can hang out with me I have a fenced yard and one high-energy pup who can keep your dog company. If your dog is more low-energy, that's great too—they can hang out with me and be my buddy. No one is ever left feeling lonely here. My home is a lot like a dog park, with plenty of fenced in outside space for them to enjoy. If your dog does well at the dog park, I’m confident they’ll thrive with me!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs of all ages and needs. I’ve always grown up with dogs, so caring for them feels second nature to me. One of my dogs even had a litter of puppies, so I’ve helped raise and train them from birth, which taught me a lot about patience and attentive care. I’m also comfortable supporting senior dogs with gentler routines and extra needs. Whether it’s energetic playtime or calm companionship, I know how to adapt to what each dog needs to feel safe and loved. I currently usually only work nights a couple days a week and I would love to help out in anyway I can. So I am usually around during the day and at night. I care for pets like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. Whether in my home or the client’s, I stick closely to their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I always take time to build trust with each pet, and I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pet is happy and in good hands.

About: I LOVE animals of all sorts. I've personally had cats for 23 years. I also have a bunny. I have taken care of other people's dogs for the past few years, and have been cat-sitting and house sitting for about 15 years. I am currently working full time but able to make my own hours at work, to make sure that there is adequate time for your furbaby. I provide tons of snuggles, attention, walks for dogs (or cats if they are trained to do so) at your preference. Available for walks, drop-ins and overnights. I am currently unable to care for your pets in MY home because I have 2 cats and a bunny, but I can provide tons of affection, clean their litterbox and/or yard poops daily. If your dog or cat is playful, I am happy to engage with them in that way as well to exert energy.

About: I’ve loved and taken care of animals my whole life (farm!) I can also administer shots and medications as well as skilled in senior care. I am available full time! I can also work in the evenings or any odd hours you might need. I am available weekends as well. Also please keep in mind I do not charge extra for more than one dog if I am dog sitting in your house, my rate is set and it is that amount for as many animals as you have. I have two sweet fur babies at home to keep your pet company! We can go on long walks in our big neighborhood, trails or dog park.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a child. I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life. Friends and family have trusted and relied on me to make sure their pets are loved and taken good care of. I’ve taken care of puppies, cats, and even senior age dogs. I’ve seen it all and have experience with animals who have cancer and can try my hardest to make them comfortable and be able to enjoy their time with me. I have recently graduated with my Bachelors of Health Science degree and I’m currently taking a gap year. With that being said I have a lot of free time on my hands now to be able to love on your furry family members!! I am married and my husband does work remotely from home for those who board or book daycare with me, your furry friend will be with him and I and our pup Scout. I have a fenced in yard and a lovable puppy ready to make new friends! I can adjust to what your cat or dog may need to be comfortable in a new environment. Whether that be with meet and greets beforehand or just lots of love and space to help them feel comfortable.

“Two of our pets have health difficulties and Brookelyne was able to care for them just as we would have! That, plus her willingness to work on a holiday, was above and beyond. We highly recommend her!”

About: My husband and I raised our family dog from a puppy to a senior needing advanced care and medication. We trained her ourselves into a playful, friendly, and obedient companion. She has since passed, and we are eager to continue caring for dogs. We also were both raised with cats in the home and are very experienced with cat care. Our two kids will give all pets lots of love! I currently work from home, so am around throughout the day to give pets lots of attention at our home. My M-F schedule is flexible to allow for walks and activities during the workday. Our weekday evenings and weekends are also generally flexible. While your pet is in our care, we will keep a close eye on their comfort, safety, and happiness. We do have a medium-sized dog crate if you would like us to use it. We do not have a fenced yard, so pets will be leashed or on a run if outside.

About: I’ve had my dog Teddy for three years, and my cat Squash for two. I love animals of all kinds and have been asked by family and friends since a young age to help them take care of animals. I’m gentle with touch but firm with my voice, love to train and spoil them, and adore going on walks. Your pets will be in good hands with me My schedule is really open right now, so I’m available for whatever your pet may need. I understand how important schedules can be, which is why I like being flexible. I’m very good at making sure that all the necessary tasks are met first when I get into the house, then if I’m allowed to, I usually try and spend a little time with that animal to gain their trust.

About: I grew up in the country surrounded by all types of animals. Pups, cats, bunnies, goats, guinea pigs were all part of my life growing up and giving them a good life meant the world to me. Regardless of the animal it's gonna get a world of enthusiasm and love. I'm currently a full time student but I have time during Wednesday, Fridays and weekends that I would very much like to spend helping take care of pets. I think the best way to keep any pet safe and cared for is to simply be present. That and being mindful of any special needs or wants of the pet.

About: I started volunteering at the humane society in second grade, and I have loved taking care of animals ever since. I grew up with three dogs and fostered cats in college, and I often pet sit for family and friends. I am in between jobs currently so I am available every weekday morning, afternoon and evening. I am also available on some weekends, just ask! I always make sure gates are closed before I let dogs out, and am very careful about keeping them on a close leash when there are cars or bikers nearby.
