“Caroline was super helpful and flexible as we rolled into town to check out the Arch and needed a dog walker/sitter for our Goober. She had great communication and was excellent to work with!”
“Niah has been a wonderful part of Princeton Antonio’s daily routine, and he gets extra excited whenever she arrives! She’s energetic, caring, and incredibly thoughtful. One of the things I appreciate most is how she always sends me sweet photos of Princeton that I can share with my mother in Chicago (who, by the way, adores her St. Louis-based grand-dog). Rain or shine, Niah shows up every evening without fail. Her dependability and connection with Princeton have been incredibly helpful while I've been recovering from a broken ankle. She has my highest recommendation to anyone who needs a dog walker or pet sitter.”
“Ugur was friendly and took all 4 of our pups for a walk while we visited the Gateway Arch. They were happy and well taken care of. Great experience and definitely recommend him for help with your pups.”
“Communication is key and Jamie is on point with this. He keeps us updated when on walks with Cosmo and we SO appreciate that! We are definitely repeat customers!”
“Kyani handled my 71lb puppy with ease. She is incredibly observant, knowledgeable and experienced. I was nervous about finding someone to handle my rambunctious pup but she was amazing. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH”
“Very responsive, responsible and punctual. My dog is usually shy but very quickly warmed up to her. It is clear she has lots of experience working with dogs.”
“Jenn was amazing to my pup, Elton (and his little cat brother Balou)! She was extremely prompt and communicative and I never worried about my animals when they were in her care 🐾”
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life — dogs of all ages, guinea pigs, fish, and more. I truly enjoy giving animals love, attention, and fun! With no evening classes this semester, I have plenty of flexibility in the mornings. Walking dogs fits perfectly into my routine, and I enjoy starting the day active and outdoors. I give dogs freedom to sniff, stroll, and play at their pace—always sticking to their routine and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved.
“Jingru took the time to know the dogs and their behavior before walking. Reached out when there was rain in the forecast to coordinate the best time to walk the dogs as I had mentioned they are uncomfortable with rain. Excellent communication throughout the whole process with a focus on the best experience for the dogs.”
“Sarah has been fantastic! She’s really good with both of my pups despite them having polar opposite personalities. She’s very professional and a great communicator. Would highly recommend.”

About: I grew up with two amazing dogs, Lassie and Maci. They weren’t just pets—they were my best friends. We spent years together playing, learning, and building a bond that taught me more than I ever expected: unconditional love, loyalty, trust, and how much joy a dog can bring into your life. Although I can’t have pets in my home right now, I miss that companionship every day—which is why I’d love to help you care for your furry family member. I know how much they mean to you, and I understand that with busy schedules, sometimes time just isn’t on our side.

About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 16 years old. I was previously employed as a veterinary technician when I lived in Florida. I do have a part time job with a flexible schedule, but will have the availability before, after, or on my breaks during my shifts to take care of your babies. I have a dog of my own who has severe anxiety so I will be willing to do whatever necessary to aid with that. I do not mind walking your babies in this cold winter weather.
