Dog Walking Pleasant Valley

“My dogs are in love! They can’t get out the door fast enough when Michaela pulls into the drive. They come home exhausted!! Michaela is personable and flexible, I appreciate her.”

“Kamila has been taking my Goldendoodle on walks while I am at work and has been so amazing! She communicates very well with me and has been so flexible with my nursing schedule. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone!!”

About: I have had pets all my life from dogs and cats to gerbils, hamsters and fish. Even as a young child I was primarily responsible for most of the routine daily pet care. I'm a trained CNA with applicable caregiving skills. I also have extensive experience as a shelter volunteer having walked the dog and played with them as well as socializing the cats. I'm currently self employed as a home care aide and wish to take care of animals in between assignments or during days off. I do not have any responsibilities that would interfere with me taking care of your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a yard stake. I live in a townhouse with an open grass backyard. I regularly take my dog to The Liberty, MO Stockdale dog park and can take yours there too if that's your preference. If you wish I can walk your dog as many times per day as you prefer. My neighborhood has paved sidewalks and walking paths that I routinely use to walk my dog daily. I have one cat and one dog and each get along with other cats and dogs very well but should there be any unforeseen issue, I can put your pet in my spare bedroom. I also own a wire dog crate for large dogs. I can crate your pet in your home or my home if you wish me to. I will take care of him or her in whichever way you prefer. I do not crate my dog but I did as a puppy to facilitate his potty training. My dog sleeps with me at night as does my cat sometimes. Both are friendly and well socialized but again, I can put either in a spare room or your pet if necessary. Both my pets are up to date on their vaccinations and they get a monthly pill for flea and tick prevention. I can do everything from long or short walks, taking them outside for potty breaks, administering food or medicine, playtime, etc.

About: I loved animals ever since I was a kid and raised and trained my dog Zephyr since he was a year old. I adore all animals care for two rodents of my own named Orchid and Meadow. I often petsit for my family and friends and have taken care of a wide variety of animals. I've taken care of pets of all ages from puppies to my senior dog who currently has from dementia. I am very patient and licensed CNA so I know how to handle a mess. I am a freshman in college though my classes are very light. I'm free after 9am on Mondays and Wednesdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm free after 12:15 though I can come in earlier anytime before 9, Fridays can vary for me but I'm typically free after 9-10 am though sometimes if I have an exam it might be an hour or so later though I can always make arrangements if necessary. I care for pets by following their routine, spending lots of time with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m respectful of my client's homes and always clean up after the pets and leave everything as I found it. I After a procedure my dog needed to be crate trained so I know how to handle that.

About: I have loved and owned animals as long as I can remember. I was raised with dogs, and other small animals! My daughter and I lost our Ollie in August 2022 at 4 years old to lung cancer and would love to care for your pet until we are ready for our next family member. I am comfortable taking care of pets of any age. I can provide food and water bowls, blankets, dog beds, stuffed toys, and I have a medium size kennel. All you need to bring is food, treats, leash/harness and any special comfort items. My daughter loves to go outside every chance she gets so they will have a lot of outside time when the weather permits. They will be allowed to roam the house as they want and are allowed on furniture – like I said- spoiled. I love to send pictures while you are gone to share their adventures while they are here. I do work for the school district 11am-1:30pm but I will be around a majority of the time to play and take care of your family member while they are here. Any drop offs and pick ups will need to be before 9am or after 2:30pm I have a fenced in yard – it is a short fence so fence jumpers are probably not the best fit for me. We can crate them when we are gone if needed and will do our best to stick to their regular routine.

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, small mammals, horses, fish, and some reptiles. I am an animal lover through and through, so whatever kind of pet you have, I promise to care for them as if they were my own. I am great at following instructions, so even if it is a new type of critter I haven't met before, I will provide care exactly as you direct. I have extensive experience with senior dogs, diabetes management, blind and/or deaf animals, and other medical care. I am not deterred by special needs animals. If you can show me how to perform the necessary tasks, I can do them. I will ensure that your babies get their special diet, their meds (pills or injections), their specific bedtime routine, or even just their exact required number of belly rubs and forehead kisses to keep their routine as steady as possible. I love sending photos and updates so that you know your pet is happy and healthy while you are away. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I work fulltime Mon-Fri. I can visit before I go to work in the mornings, anytime during evenings and weekends, and I can do midday check-ins for a quick potty break or medications on my lunch break. I am currently only offering services in the client's home. I will care for your pet carefully according to your instructions and will be respectful of your home and privacy. I will make sure everything is locked up behind me before leaving and if you want me to turn the porch light on at night or bring in your mail, etc. just let me know!

About: i’ve owned dogs on my own for 10 years, worked professionally with dogs for 7 years in a kennel/day care environment. i have worked with dogs of different temperaments and sizes and ages and have training in pet health, safety, and body language. i work full time, with a set schedule. i am more than happy to come by to see your babies before or after work as well as on my days off. i personally walk my dogs on properly fitted harnesses on 4 ft leashes, one of them with a muzzle. i am open to 6 ft leashes, retractable leashes, prong collars, muzzles, backyard play, whatever your pup needs !!

About: I’ve had yorkie’s, dobie’s, lab’s, shepherd’s and schnauzer’s. My little Stevie passed away in April after 13 years together. She can’t be replaced so I’m looking to fill the void by caring for others while my heart mends. I have a lot of free time without a set schedule so there is always time to snuggle and play and go for walks together. I have a 4’ tall fenced yard with neighbors that have dogs too. I stay outside with the dogs and do not leave them alone. Dogs will have the run of my house and are allowed on the furniture and the beds too.

About: I grew up on a farm with many types of animals and hard work. I have worked in veterinary clinics as a kennel attendant and now a veterinary assistant for over 10 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I'm comfortable caring for elderly and sick pets as well as giving medications. I live and work in the Liberty MO area. I am an early morning person and can do early morning drop in visits and walks before 7 am (including weekends and holidays). I typically get my lunch break between 12-2 pm. I can come and do a drop in visit or do a short walk over my break. Evenings are a possibility but are less flexible and open. I can offer enrichment with treats, playtime and exercise. I like a good cuddle session as well as a hyper wrestling match, or active fetch game. I enjoy being out in God's creation and am open to more nature based walks if you have an active curious pup (like my own dog). I think cats should also be enriched and loved. I like playing games with cats and helping them feel comfortable and spoiled. I have owned a lizard of my own and am not afraid of reptiles or rodents. I think exotic pets need enrichment, entertainment, and love as well.

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all sizes, providing reliable feeding, walking, and overnight care. I focus on calm routines, clear communication, and maintaining a safe, secure home environment while owners are away. I focus primarily on overnight house sitting and in-home pet care. My schedule allows me to provide consistent morning and evening routines, regular check-ins, and dependable overnight presence while owners are away. I care for pets in their own home to maintain familiar routines and reduce stress. I follow care instructions closely, keep homes secure, and communicate clearly so owners feel confident their pets and home are well cared for.

About: Growing up I always had some sort of pet whether that be my bearded dragon, leopard gecko, cats, dogs, birds, all of it. I recently lost my disabled kitty but he taught me lots about medication administration, accessibility, and so many more things that are needed when working with a disabled or any kind of medical condition in pets. I now have a kitten and thankfully my childhood dog is still alive which I’m very grateful for. I’d love to spend time with your babies too! I live in Columbia because my boyfriend goes to Mizzou, but I currently am not working anywhere, so I can help you out anytime, anywhere:) I am very careful when it comes to pet safety. Like mentioned earlier my baby, Theo, is disabled as well as special needs. He takes medication and has to have certain accommodations around the apartment just for him. Making sure he is safe is a big priority as well as a big priority for your pet too!

About: As a dedicated pet walker and sitter, I provide attentive, compassionate, and professional care for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. My skills include: • Safe & Engaging Walks – Ensuring dogs get the right amount of exercise while keeping them safe and stimulated. • Basic Obedience & Leash Handling – Reinforcing good behavior, managing leash manners, and responding calmly to different situations. • Pet Sitting & Companionship – Offering loving care, feeding, playtime, and maintaining routines to keep dogs comfortable. • Understanding Canine Behavior – Recognizing signs of stress, excitement, or discomfort and responding appropriately. • Emergency Preparedness – Knowledge of pet first aid and quick decision-making in case of an emergency. I prioritize building trust with pets and their owners, ensuring every dog receives the best care and attention while you’re away! I prefer to work weekends when I have more time available. I spend most of my time during the week working my full time job and spending time with my own pets. I clean up any accidents your pet may have. I also make sure their environment is safe for them and their owners. Helicopter dog mom!

About: Hi, my name is Philip and I love dogs. Through my life so far I have always been jealous of my friends whose parents allowed them to have a dog. But I take every opportunity that I can to play and care for dogs That being said, I have helped care for a couple of neighbors dogs and take them on many walks. One of them was German Shepherd puppy that I even was able to train and I grew quite attached. Whenever I am able to move out I plan to get a German shepherd for myself because of how much I loved my neighbor's puppy. I am currently working part time so I have a good bit free time on most days. I can walk or dog/cat sit weekdays and weekends most of the time until I get a full time job! I can care for a pet in your own environment however you would like me too, I'm very open and flexible as long as I have clear instructions and resources. I'm up to almost any task!

Also if I am staying in your home, I will respect all of your rules.

About: Growing up in a household where I wasn’t allowed to have a pet of my own, I searched for every chance to spend time with furry friends. I spent a lot of time at neighbors’ and friends’ houses playing with and pet-sitting their dogs, studying a variety of dog breeds, and watching pet shows like “Too Cute” on Animal Planet. In middle school I volunteered at the animal shelter and in high school I was exposed to many therapy dogs at the hospital. Finally, 7 years ago I got a shih-poo of my own and it’s been such a joy getting to spoil her rotten. Dogs bring us so much light, love, and companionship so they deserve to be treated with utmost care and pampered to their heart’s content! I will make sure your precious pet gets the attention it needs so that you can live your life care free and they can live theirs cared for! I am not currently working so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend! My availability is completely open for walks, check ins, and whatever and however much care your pet may need!

My shih-poo can keep your four-legged friend company or can be caged up, whichever you and your pet are comfortable with. I have a variety of dog treats that your pup is welcome to as well.

I’m currently on summer break, so I am dedicated to giving my full attention to your fur babies! I am available for daily walks, lots of play time, and anything else your pet may need! I have one very friendly Cavapoo who would love a playmate during the summer! I am determined to make your pets comfortable, whether that be watching them in my home or your own.
