About: With years of experience in high-end dog training, sitting, and walking, I offer more than just pet care—I provide expert, personalized attention for your dog. I understand canine behavior on a deep level, ensuring your pup feels safe, engaged, and loved while you're away. Whether it’s reinforcing good manners, going on structured walks, or providing calm companionship, I treat every dog like my own. I currently work from home with a flex work schedule, which makes me available for pet care anytime. I can work my schedule to be tailored to your pets needs. I have a large back yard and dogs of my own to keep your fur baby company. For walks, I tailor each to your fur baby’s needs, spending more time outside with high energy dogs, and taking shorter walks for older pets. All walks and care come with the most snuggles.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since age 5. My friend's neighbors and family have all trusted me to care for their animals. Including feeding, bathing, & walking. Rover is my fulltime job, I am available Monday through Friday daytime 11:00am-4:00pm & some Sundays in the areas of Ste Genevieve, Perryville, Festus, Bloomsdale,and Farmington. I am open to do day visits and dog walks. Please let me know the Sunday before for the week what you need! This leaves plenty of time for puppy loving! ❤️ I currently have a very gentle loving puppy who loves to play indoors & outdoors. So in my home your dog will have some company 😀 I do not have a fenced in yard which is a challenge so we go on walks in the neighborhood & have a nearby park we enjoy going to so no worries! We have lots of fun and exercise! We play games outside and inside.

About: I have had the pleasure of taking care of animals my whole life. I treat each pet like a cherished family member, and not just a job. I emphasize building trust, understanding individual pet personalities, and providing compassionate, attentive care that goes beyond basic feeding and watering. I work from home full time and can step away from my desk at anytime. If you have nervous dogs that can’t be left alone for long periods of time, my schedule allows me to work from anywhere and I can spend the day with them. I can easily take care of all your pets needs, walks? You got it. Sitting with your dog through a thunderstorm? Absolutely. I want to make sure that your dog doesn’t get thrown out of their routine, when I’m coming into others homes.

“Super kind, friendly and punctual.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I can play with them, pick up after them, bathe them and make sure they’re happy and well fed. And I can take the dog on short or long walks and make sure they’re happy and safe. Also for house sitting I’ll make sure the house is clean and any messes the dog makes is cleaned up as well I’m a student at an online university, but I am taking a break from perusing my BS in forensic accounting. So I have plenty of time to watch your pets. I have two dogs that I take care of with my family. And they are well cared for and I play with them throughout the day and feed them when they need to be fed.

About: I have taken care of my own pets for all of my life. People have noticed the care and time I put into their lives and have trusted me to train and take care of of others peoples pets as well. I love walking, playing, feeding and anything you can think of with your pets. I am available pretty much every day all day except for Wednesday and Sunday morning. Feel free to contact me and work out a good time. Anything needed I can provide at clients home. Only thing I am unable to do is keep pets at my own home. Just give me details and I’ll be ready.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets my entire life. I have experience dog-sitting, cat-sitting, dog walking and even some grooming. My passionate love for animals doesn’t vary between small, large, young, or old - I love them all! I have plenty of weekend availability, but I am a student during the week, so my flexibility has been a little restricted. This summer I will have 8-10 hr days twice a week (including commute). Please reach out to see if my exact schedule will work for you! My goal is to make your furry friend feel as comfortable as possible with me. I take caution when getting to know a new animal, making sure to give them the time and space they need in order to get to know me.

About: Hi! I'm Dannielle, I've been a certified dog groomer for 5 years. Dogs are my passion! I have 3 pups of my own- a special needs shepherd, a spunky 2 year old pit mix, and my sweet senior boy. On my off time I enjoy making homemade dog treats, jerky, and doing dog crafts such as making collar flowers and bandannas. As a groomer I am always continuing my canine education, especially related to safe dog handling. My goal in life is to meet all the pups! Being in a salon management position I do have a good amount of flexibility with my schedule. I will be available for drop-in visits and walks in the evenings and select day visits. I’m also available for overnight pet sitting during the week and on every other weekend. I do not care for pets in my home due to my personal dogs however I am open and adaptable to care for your pet at your home however you see fit. Keeping a steady routine is important for our furs. I am comfortable walking dogs on leash, in a fenced yard off leash, and with crate training.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was young. I foster for the animal shelters. I have 4 cats and 2 dogs of my own. I use to be a dog groomer for Petco! I have fostered newborn kittens and puppies. I have experience with fish, hamsters, cats, dogs, kittens, puppies, horses, chickens, ducks, goose, donkeys, cows, ect. I’m an animal lover all around!! I’m a stay at home pet mom, so I have all the time for your pets as well! I would love to give them extra love :) When first meeting a pet, I always slowly let them get used to me. I talk to them and tell them everything i’m doing whether they can can understand me or not 😅. I pride myself on gaining the trust of any animal and always making sure they feel safe!

About: While I may not have "professional" pet care experience, I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have always been a go-to pet helper for family and friends. I believe in gentle and attentive care. I am committed to making sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved... because dogs truly are family! I am excited to earn your trust and become your dog's second-favorite human! 🐾 I work full time as a first responder. My schedule varies due to a 48/96 work schedule (this meaning I work 2 days on, 4 days off). I am typically available all off days, but my schedule will vary! I do not currently have any pets due to just moving into a new home! Though I do still have 2 dogs back home that I see often. I aim to create an environment where your four-legged friend will feel secure and relaxed. I achieve this by only sitting one pet at a time in a large house with no other pets. I love giving all the attention to the pups, but also have plenty of space for those who are shy. I also provide pictures and videos of pets upon request :)

Dogs are the key to happiness in my opinion!! I will never turn down an opportunity to pet a dog or cat if able. I will be sure to keep your dog or cat well taken care of with lots of love, potty breaks as needed and outside or inside play if they are energetic! I currently am a stay at home mom for my 1 year old, so I have flexibility and will be able to provide what’s needed for your fur baby to the best of my ability. I would love to get a run down of your typical day or what your animal normally requires and expects. Keeping them in a routine they are comfortable with is important and I am happy to provide that as much as I am able.

About: My connection with animals runs deep, nurtured by a lifetime of pet ownership and active participation in their care since childhood. This personal experience extends to caring for my own dogs, including senior companions with specific health needs and medication requirements. What truly sets me apart is not just my profound love for animals, which ensures they are treated with the same devotion I give my own, but also my professional background.

I prioritize open and frequent communication, providing updates as often as desired to ensure your peace of mind. Furthermore, I am meticulous about cleanliness and organization, guaranteeing your home will be left as tidy, if not tidier, than when I arrived. Working remotely provides me with significant flexibility, allowing pet care to seamlessly integrate into my daily and weekly routine. This means I can dedicate the necessary time and attention to your beloved companions, ensuring they receive the care they need, precisely when they need it. I prioritize frequent potty breaks, typically every 2-4 hours or as often as an individual pet requires, to maintain their comfort and well-being.

About: Hey there, I’m Danielle, 36, of Belleville. I’m a mother of 6 human children and only 2 fur children right now. That’s really saying something because I’ve always had plenty of animals around me. My family has been on the right side of animal empathy for as long as I can remember. As a family we’ve volunteered and fostered for the local humane society. We’ve found ourselves in the face of wounded and homeless creatures more times than I could count that we’ve taken in graciously and to the best of our ability. These experiences have taught us so much about animal care. My experience also ranges far beyond dogs and cats. I do have experience with many reptiles and mammals as well, caged and uncaged. I am a full Time student and mother. Caring for pets full time fits naturally into the routine. I’m available as much or as little As needed while you’re away. I want to create a similar environment for your pet to their normal routine. Pet parents being away creates an anxiety I would strive to calm in your absence and consistency is important for them. Walks, spending time with them, frequent potty breaks, and feeding routines are something I would want to mimic of your current habits as best as possible. As a home owner myself, I’m aware and experienced with red flags of home security and maintenance. Providing a lifeline to your other most valuable assets left behind can offer a peace of mind while you are away.

About: I used to foster dogs. My yard is pretty big and I have a doggie door. My dogs do not mind visitors. I am off work during the summer and all major holidays. I am a teacher so I am off for the summers. When school is in session, I get off early and I am usually home before 4pm. I have a fenced in yard that can be accessed by a doggie door. I have 3 small dogs. I walk them and play with them on a regular basis. I also have 2 cats.

“Heather and her crew bring a dependable exciting, socializing aspect to her service is top notch! She asked and offered first and, it was a bonus i had not factored in. She gives my dogs tons of attention and pack like walks. Even going further than expected on the beautiful days. I can not say enough great things about her. And, her kids helping is an aspect i did not expect. She has asked if she can include her dog on the walks sometimes. I told her absolutely! The more socializing with anyone, anywhere has been really great! And, above and beyond expectation. I highly recommend her for anyone with puppies, empty nesters like me, and or, dogs that have lost their fur sibling. Exceptional! Worth every penny and then some!”

About: I have owned, been surrounded by, or been trusted to watch dogs for most of my life. Currently only own a cat so hoping to enjoy dogs on here until I get a dog! I currently work night shift and so I am available afternoons and weekends. I’m very flexible and would love to get to know your pet soon! I try to take advantage of walks and use them as an opportunity to burn off some energy so the pup gets a nice nap after. I will do what it takes to make sure the tail is wagging next time I walk in the door.

“My pup Lady says Allison was a 5 star walker! She is organized, good with communication and bakes yummy dog treats. Sad to say goodbye as we move out of state.”

Kari B.

About: I grew up in the country taking care of animals. I own my own dog and cat. I have over 15 years experience caring for animals. I have open availability. I am available for walks and drop ins at anytime and am available for overnight sitting. I am an early riser and am up around 4 am every day. I believe routine is vital to your pet’s life. I will also follow your instructions completely and work with your needs. I believe pets our part of the family and treat them as such.

About: I have been training and taking care of dogs of all shapes and sizes since 2008 when we adopted our angel, Willie. Since then, I have trained my two perfect puppies, who are my pride and joy! Neighbors and friends often ask for my help teaching their dogs new tricks or simply taking care of them while they enjoy their trip away from home. In addition, I volunteer at a Humane Society and am trained in properly walking dogs, carefully getting them in and out of kennels, and reading their body language. I know how precious pets are to a family, and I pride myself on providing the utmost care to every dog I interact with! I am currently home for winter break from college, so I am able to provide care every day of the week! I am taking an online class that allows me to work at my own pace, which will not interfere with my priority of assisting whenever necessary! It is important to me to approach each dog with the same respect and love as I would my own dogs. Dogs are simple, quirky creatures who need attention, love, and play time. I am also able to crate dogs if needed and clean up after them!
