Dog Walkers in Sturgeon, MO

About: I have worked in professional pet care for 4 years and have been watching neighbors dogs for the past 2 years. At doggy daycare I have worked with all sizes and ages of dogs and am comfortable with all of them. I am currently and student at The University of Missouri but am still able to come to your house to watch your pet. I can stay at your house during the week or weekend, my classes are during the middle of the day so they can go out plenty of times in the morning and night. I have three dogs at home that I am very used to taking care of as well as my cat. I can follow your pets schedule so there is no difference in your care and mine.

“Alissa is awesome! I contacted Alissa and we did a meet and greet a couple of days later and it’s a perfect match! Alissa is great with Miley. They walk down to the lake and back 5 days a week. I am so thankful for her!”

“Donna is EXCELLENT with my dogs Charlie and Buddy. They're Maltese-Shih Tzu mixes, 7 and 3 years old, and they absolutely love her and they walks she takes them on. I've watched her with my boys and based on what I've seen, would highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for a walker with a great temperament and strong skills at dog handling.”

About: Hi, my name is Becca. I live with four dogs, two Yorkies(Cocoa and Buddy), a Pit mix and a Beagle (Doobie and Maribel)! I love to play in the backyard with them and take them on walks. I think that it’s important to show dogs you care about them, by spending time with them. I enjoy long walks especially with dogs, it’s more fun when you have a furry friend with you! I look forward to getting to know your dog and learning more about their personality. Don’t hesitate to tell me if your dog has special needs or requirements. My schedule is somewhat flexible. I am currently in paramedic school. My classes are mostly in the mornings, but my schedule is pretty flexible during the afternoons on week days. I have a fenced-in yard, and all dogs have plenty of toys to play with! I often run around in the backyard with them to help get some of their energy out!

About: I have taken care of animals since I was little. I've been an animal lover since I was born. I am ver patient and do good with animals. I am available on weekends and weekdays when I'm not working. Just text me and I'll let you know if I am available. I can walk even when it is a bit dark. I always make to check on them every once in awhile to make sure they are good. I make sure to give lots of cuddles. For dogs, I make sure to occasionally see if they need to go outside. Water is always available.

About: I’m a HUGE animal lover and have experience taking care of all sorts of animals, from dogs, to cats, spiders, bunnies, frogs, and more! I have six cats of my own and foster medically fragile/behaviorally challenged cats from the Humane Society. It brings me so much joy when I see a cat truly start to thrive again. Because of how long I’ve been caring for animals, I’m experienced in providing a wide variety of care. Your puppy is still crate training? I can help! Your senior four-legged friend needs medication? I can do it! Your socially awkward pet doesn’t like people? That’s okay! You have an animal that most people don’t know how to care for? I guarantee you that I do. Working with animals is such a fulfilling part of my life and that’s why I’ve been doing it so long! I work an incredibly flexible job, allowing me to spend quality time with your pets while you’re away. I work with my clients and around their schedules, making pet care as stress-free as possible! I usually care for pets in my client’s home, as my home is a bit of a zoo. I work hard to ensure we have trust and boundaries established so we both feel comfortable! One of the ways I do that is by doing a meet n greet beforehand. I love to get to know the pet parents and meet the pets before I start sitting.

About: My experience with pets started at an early age, as there has never been a time in my life where I haven’t had at least one dog and cat that I absolutely adored and took care of. From fostering kittens to attending the hounds around town walking program for dogs- I’ve had a pretty wide range! I’ve completed a socializing program with my prior local humane society, pet sat many of my friends and family’s’ fur babies- as well as currently taking care of my three sweet cats! I would love to meet your pets and share some love when you aren’t able to! It brings a lot of joy to my life :) I’m currently a medical professional employed in the Columbia community but have pet sat as a side gig for many years as a way to connect with the community, meet other local pet parents, and love on others pets as if they were my own! My schedule varies and is often open the entire day. I would love to fit some pet sitting/walking opportunities into my life when I’m able! Taking care of your pets in your home is completely up to your preferred method! Every pet parent is different and I will make sure to tailor that experience to the sitting. Details and communication are the most important thing .

About: I’ve been a relied upon neighborhood pet sitter for dogs, cats, chickens, and reptiles for at least 12 years. Ive also fostered “bottle baby” kittens on and off for my local humane society for 3 years. I have learned how to read the body language of and understand the needs of many species of pets, and I understand the importance of listening to human direction while working with pets. I am currently between jobs and about to engage in a short term Americorps VISTA position out of state between June and August. I often pick up local volunteer shifts at the Central MO Humane Society and at Columbia Center for Urban Agriculture, however my schedule is very flexible. I am very experienced in working within clients’ homes, whether it has been for pet sitting, house cleaning, or even entering homes to provide social services. Every home and homeowner is unique, and I pride myself in my ability to leave spaces at least as wonderful as I find them.

About: You will not be disappointed by the quality of care you receive when your dog(s) is in my care. I have loved helping others with their family needs since I was young. My career as a nanny involved helping families for over 10 years with their children, animals, and other needs. I believe they are our four-legged babies. They will receive my full attention. You will receive pictures and messages throughout my time with them. They will only eat and play with the things you allow. We do have plenty of dog toys if they are pre-approved by you of course. We now have a lovable 10 year old mini schnauzer of our own who loves being around other dogs. Our children love being around other animals as well. They understand how to be kind and gentle to animals. I do, unfortunately, have some allergies and can only care for hypoallergenic dogs. Please ask if you are unsure about your breed. We have a large fenced-in yard and our house is conveniently located with easy access to a lot of surrounding towns. Thank you! My schedule is very flexible. Some days I run my children to school or daycare and back whenever it is convenient for us. I am a stay at home mom always looking to help others. Our yard is very large and fenced-in. Yadi is our mini schnauzer. He is almost 10 years old and loves being around other dogs. We are close to North highway 63, but live in the quiet country with a lot of nature and wildlife. Our gravel road is perfect for walks. And since I am located in between so many local cities I don't mind driving to care for your pup. I can easily crate your animal for you, as well. Let's discuss what you need!

About: Hello! I have been taking care of animals for over 13 years. I grew up with two cats and two dogs, and taking care of multiple neighbors animals whenever they were out of town. My partner also works on rover and I have helped him on multiple occasions! I have a very flexible schedule at work, currently only working a part time job. I will always prioritize your pet and making sure they get the best care. Being a pet mom myself, I would give the best care for your pet, just as I would for mine. That includes making sure they are fed and taken outside and played with, etc!
