Dog Walking In Walnut Park West

“Riley has been such a amazing help while I was recovering from an injury that prevented me from being able to take my dog on a walk. He was very careful of her limitstions of being dog reactive and made me feel comfortable that she was in good hands!”

Reetika P.

“Naja was pleasant and Chaos was his usual self around her. She was open to me being an helicopter mom. XL furbabies can be very intimidating.”

Heather C.

“Our dog loves his daily walks! She is reliable and communicative. Highly recommend!”

Elizabeth G.

“Quia is excellent in how she handled Snacks, a 95 lb Akita with a lot of energy. She took charge right away and calmed him down. A true professional. Thank you so much, you are the BEST! Andrea McCartney (MsAMac)”

About: I volunteer at the APA animal shelter where I walk and play with all types of dogs. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals including lizards, fish, kittens (2 weeks old), puppies, and turtles! I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time to spend time with your animals and make sure they are well taken care of! I give all pets love and affection with different pets needing different things! For dogs I love to take them for walks and give them lots of belly scratches, and for cats I love to play with them and if they like, pet them!

“Megan is communicative, punctual, and is great with Josie (who waits for her at the door daily around walk time). 10/10”

About: I was raised on a farm where I cared for horses, cats, and dogs. I grew up showing Missouri Fox Trotting horses, and this grew my love for animals. In my free time, I love spending time with animals and have done petting for a three years in the St. Louis area. I am flexible and like to follow your pets' lead and their routine to make sure we both have the best experience possible. I have a variety of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from 5 months old to elderly. I am comfortable administering oral medications, walking, grooming, daily care, and whatever else your pets need throughout my stay. I will love them like my own! I am a PhD student and graduate assistant at Saint Louis University, and my schedule varies depending on the day. I can perform most of my work tasks from home and will communicate anytime I will be gone for more than 4 hours. When house sitting, I live my life in your home while taking care of your pets and adapt my routine to their needs. I always check for any conflicts before accepting a booking to make sure your pet I can best accommodate your pets' needs. I am happy give you insight into what my schedule looks like during your interested days to make sure this is works for the both of us. I am organized, clean, and observant. While at your home, your pet's care is my top priority. I always make sure to leave no trace whenever possible so you come home to a clean space. When house sitting, I send daily updates in the evening to summarize my day with your pets, including lots of pictures. If I notice any odd behaviors, I will always reach out to ask what is normal for your pet and keep you updated with any changes. When dropping in or going on a walk with the dog, I let you know which route we took and provide pictures and/or videos.

About: In my house growing up there were many different cats, dogs, guinea pigs, fish, gerbils, and even a tortoise. I also have experience taking care of chickens and pigs. I love pets and I have been missing mine since I moved to St. Louis in August. I work every weekday from 10-645 so I am free after that. My weekends are open. I am totally free on most Saturdays and Sundays. I will make sure that I have all the information I need before I start watching a pet. The client's contact, neighbors contacts, any additional necessary phone numbers, etc. I will make sure I know all I can about the pet before I am left with them.

About: I have successfully cared for 4 litters of 8-12 puppies. I currently own three. American Staffshord Terriers, Azul is 7 years of age and Bonnie is 6 years old and Deuce is 3 years old. I have trained 4 adult dogs. I have my dogs on insurance plans through Banfield Hospital, allowing me to gain knowledge from the vets in attendance and apply the knowledge with my dogs daily. I have dealt with an aggressive dog once and though it was challenging, we made great strides together with the assistance of the dogs parents. The outcome of working with Sebastian and his mom was that Sebastian had become more sociable allowing him to attend doggy play dates, go out to the dog park, and walk with out any issues with other dogs. I currently work overnight, so the first few hours I’m home I tend to my dogs, let them out to the backyard once I’m in and situated, feed them, back out to the yard and then for a walk. Do some quick daily commands & then I sleep and repeat prior to going into work for the evening. On my off days it’s the same routine, but more training and yard time. I would be walking dogs so I would tend to the dogs as instructed or if asked for pointers I would work with the dog and see what works best for that dog in particular and share that knowledge with the parents.

About: As an adult I've had both cats and dogs. For the last 20 years I've had 1-3 dogs at any given time. 3 from puppies. The last one just passed away at 12, from cancer. The oldest was a 16yo Shihtzu who went blind. I'm not ready for another pet of my own and would be thrilled to love on babies when you need someone to care for them. I currently nanny two days a week for 4 hrs total so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. Whatever amount they need. I can give them attention and play with them, give them as many walks or as much space as they need. I can give them medication or follow other directions to make sure each pet gets their needs met. Every animal is unique and they deserve care that responds to their individuality.

“Jacqueline did a great and thorough job taking care of Pua. She sent pictures at multiple points during her walk that were so cute.”

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 6 from my personal pets to my aunts or neighbors I’ve always cared for and adored animals. Caring for pets isn’t just “checking in” to me — it’s making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and understood while you’re away. I specialize in working with cats (especially shy, anxious, or independent ones who don’t warm up to everyone), but I also provide loving, attentive care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. With my background as a licensed pharmacy technician, I bring an extra level of attention to detail when it comes to medications, routines, and noticing small changes in behavior. Whether your pet needs basic care or a little extra support, I’ve got it covered. I also keep a small pet supply inventory on hand — so if you’re busy or forget something (food, litter, treats, etc.), I can help without it turning into a stressful situation. You’ll always get consistent updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re my own — with patience, structure, and a lot of love. I am currently a stay at home mom, so your pets can get most of my undivided attention from me and my daughter who also adores animals. I do not have a fenced yard, but i have a big back and front yard definitely enough space for any pet to enjoy! I let my daughter play out there while I watch.

About: Hi! I’m new using this platform but I’ve always had dogs in my care and now have a very active Bengal kitten at home, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and understanding their different needs. I grew up in a household with dogs of all sizes (from large breeds like Rottweilers to small breeds like Yorkies) which has given me experience handling a wide range of personalities and energy levels. I’m used to high energy pets, daily play and exercise, maintaining clean spaces, and adjusting care based on each pet’s personality. I focus on patience, routine, and making sure every pet feels safe, engaged, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m currently a full-time graduate student with flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to plan visits in advance and accommodate drop-in care when needed. I’m generally available before 10:00 a.m. and after 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, and I can plan ahead to ensure consistent, reliable care. I am amenable to anything your doggie/cat may need to feel good and safe. Just give me specifications or contact me with any doubts about walking/sitting services.

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ pups of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve looked after everything from 14-week-old puppies to senior rescues. I’ve also worked with dogs who need medication, have special needs like blindness or anxiety, or just have tons of energy to burn. I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and personalized care — as if they were my own. As a full-time student with a light class schedule — just a few hours in the evenings Monday through Thursday — I’m available nearly all day, every day. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent care, timely check-ins, and plenty of attention for your pup throughout the day. When boarding dogs in my home, I provide a peaceful, dog-friendly space where your pup can relax and feel at ease. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that's perfect for regular walks and sniff breaks. I maintain a consistent routine, supervise playtime, and ensure your dog always has a cozy spot to rest — just like they would at home. Being welcomed into someone’s home to care for their pet is a responsibility I take seriously. I’m clean, respectful, and always follow care instructions closely. I create a calm, safe environment for each dog, keep communication open with regular updates, and do everything I can to make sure both you and your pup feel secure and supported.

About: I truly get the best of both worlds when it comes to pet care! Growing up, my family had both big and small dogs, so I’m comfortable handling all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. From playful pups to more laid-back companions, I’ve experienced it all. Now here in STL, I have a 2-year-old cat of my own, which has given me even more appreciation for the unique care, attention, and affection every pet deserves. Overall, I bring 14 years of hands-on pet care experience and a genuine love for animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I work full-time but still offer flexible, reliable pet care with availability in the early mornings, anytime after 2 PM, and full, open availability on weekends to best fit your schedule. I provide attentive, personalized care in my clients’ homes, following each pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, litter or cleanup needs, and give plenty of affection and companionship while maintaining a clean, safe, and stress-free environment.

About: I’ve been dealing with animals literally my whole life. I went to a technical school and I worked at a doggy daycare for 4yrs.Dogs are my passion/therapy. Im trying to save up enough to continue my education. I’m currently working as a part time dog groomer Mondays/Fridays, a little busier after holidays . I’m still available to do check ins every 2-4hrs for potty breaks on those days. My home is very spacious, plus I have a dog park within walking distance. I prefer dogs that’s kid friendly as I do have a toddler.

“Tara was great with our German Shepherd! He really enjoyed his walks and got a lot of his energy out.”

About: I’ve taken care of both young and old dogs and cats. I’ve been around and have loved animals my whole life. I’d love to take care of yours! I work part time and go to school, but would have plenty of time to take care of your pets. At the latest, I am always free after seven. But typically am free most afternoons. I would treat your fur babies like my own, I would bend to their needs and based on what you recommend, treat them with the most utmost care!

“Sarah was AMAZING. We had a spontaneous day trip the pups couldn’t join, and Sarah fit them in her schedule last minute! She made time to meet them while we were home so we were all more comfortable. My timid baby hid in his bed and almost refused any walks, water, or food. Sarah was patient and knowledgeable, and was able to coerce him out and appropriately rewarded him. Her care, communication, and adorable pictures kept us from worrying about leaving our babies overnight. HIGHLY recommend!”

About: I have been in home pet sitting for eight years for multiple families. I have pet experience with dogs and cats of all ages. Stayed in homes for days-weeks at a time. I work as an occupational therapist as my day job, trying to pay off my car loan as quick as possible and would love to spoil your pets! I love to take care of pets and help them feel safe when their humans are gone. I also keep the house clean and orderly while I am there to help the environment be as relaxing as possible.
