About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly can't imagine life without them. I've owned both large and medium-sized dogs over the years, so I'm very comfortable handling and walking big pups with confidence. Whether your dog loves a long adventure, a leisurely sniff-filled stroll, or just wants some extra love and attention, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I recently worked as an adoption and foster counselor at an animal shelter in St. Louis, where I had the opportunity to work with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable handling dogs who are dog-reactive, dog-aggressive, leash biters, or shy and fearful, and I know that every dog deserves patience, kindness, and understanding. My own two dogs are my whole world, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else's care. I'll treat your pup like one of my own—with plenty of love, attention, and lots of tail wags along the way! 🏆 Certified in Fear Free Training 🏆 I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether they love extra walks, playtime, cuddle breaks, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away! At this time, I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes, where your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I'm happy to help with everything they need, including walks, feeding, fresh water, brushing, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and, of course, lots of love and attention. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your furry family member!
“Carly was great! I had to book her last minute because my dog walker fell through. She was flexible and accommodating and made my time away from home stress free. She always showed up on time and kept me updated about my pup. I would definitely have Carly watch Stella again!”

“Want to say I was extremely pleased with Brody's first day with Patty and her sweet gentle dog Tucker. Brody usually reacts with extreme anxiety when he encounters new people or situations. I had discussed this with Patty prior to dropping him off. As soon as she opened the door I was pretty sure that Brody would adjust easily. Patty was friendly and talked to Brody in comforting way. Tucker also greeted us with his gentle non threatening manner. Aside from a few anxious minutes when we first walked in Brody seem right at home. Patty sent me several pictures throughout the day that reassured me that I had definately made the right choice when choosing the care giver for my dog. It was clear to me that Brody was having a blast playing in the fenced in yard. Later in the day I received pictures of Brody sleeping with his head in Patty's lap. Loved this! I knew that my dog had learned to trust her within a short period of time and was perfectly content. Thank you Patty for being so kind and loving to my Puppy Boy. Very positive experience! Would love to have Patty take care of Brody again.”
“Carol was amazing as a sitter for my 2 year old German Shepard. She took amazing care of her and it was clear she gave her the attention she deserved. Will be seeking her help again in the future !”

I have two adorable pups of my own—an affectionate 13-year-old toy poodle (the boss) and an energetic 5-year-old doodle. They are both well-socialized and love making new friends, so your dog will feel right at home in our household! I work from home full-time, so I’m always available to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. My home is equipped with a secure, fenced backyard where your dog can run, play, and explore in a safe environment. I understand that every dog is unique and has their own needs and routines. I’m committed to ensuring that your pet feels comfortable and happy while they’re with me. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, or just lounging around, I’m here to provide the care and companionship your dog deserves. I look forward to meeting your furry friends and giving them a delightful experience while you are away! I work from home full-time which allows me ample time to care for your pup, including playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. Both of my pups are very friendly and love making new friends. I have a fenced yard, and two pups to keep your pet company. Both of my dogs are crate trained. I can provide a crate if need be for sleeping accommodations
“Nicole is great! She set up a meet and greet with me and my dog Bella. I showed her around the house and Bella got to know her. She walked Bella for 4 days this week. She always keeps in contact and updates me exactly on how the walks with Bella go! She lets me know about other dogs and Bella’s reactions when on a leash (very helpful as I just adopted her). She is so clearly a dog person. She makes sure Bella has clean water and is even kind enough to bring in a package for me if it is on my porch. Even rewards Bella with treats. I will absolutely be booking walks with her again and recommend you do the same! Nicole adds the personal touch that you want when someone is taking care of your family member aka your pup! Thanks Nicole! See you soon!”

“Nicole took such amazing care of our dog Dakota while we were away! We’ve used her twice now, and both times Dakota came home sooo happy. You can really tell Nicole genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She even recommended a great groomer for Dakota, which we really appreciated. She has a nice backyard, and her kids and dogs are super friendly, so Dakota had plenty of fun and social time while staying there. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dakota was in such good hands. We highly recommend Nicole — definitely a 5-star experience!”
