Caitlynn watched my two dogs with last minute notice and was great! She was communicative, thorough, and very friendly with them. They were happy when I returned and didn’t even seem to notice I was gone. 🤣 One of my pups threw up on my white rug and she took upon the mess, plus managed to clean it out entirely. I would highly recommend Caitlynn!!

Samantha was amazing! She gave my diabetic cat his injectable meds with ease and kept him company at her drop-in visits with him. She stayed in contact with me while I was away with any concerns or updates so I knew my cat was safe and well cared for. Will be booking her again in the future!

Loretta is incredibly kind, and made us feel comfortable and at ease. She took great care of our cat and even watered my many plants for me while we were away. I highly recommend her!

About: I have grown up around cats and dogs and I've always known that I wanted to work with animals. I have been pet-sitting for dogs and cats for many years and have experience working with many different dog breeds. I also have a degree in Animal Welfare and am knowledgeable on animal behavior and health. I have experience working with a wide variety of animals, including cats, dogs, small mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and birds. Every animal is unique and I love getting to know each individual. I look forward to getting to know your pets! I have a very flexible schedule. I can do quick drop-ins or longer visits depending on your pet's needs. I'm available on weekends and weekdays. I offer visits to your home to take care of your pet while you're away. I can do simple check-ins, or longer visits for pets that need more attention. I'm happy to visit with your pet for an hour or two if they need some love. My knowledge on animal behavior and health means that I will be able to keep an eye on your pet's health and mood while I care for them. I will follow all of your instructions to ensure that your pet keeps their routine while you're away.

Rachel took fantastic care of our girls this weekend! They are sweethearts, but can be stinkers sometimes. She took extra time making sure that they ate, drank, and went potty, during each visit. It was such a relief that she took care of them like they were her own. We look forward to working with Rachel again!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years from family pets, neighbors dogs, dogs of friends, and living with my roommates dog for almost 3 years. I have always been hands-on and very engaging with all dogs I meet. I have learned many important skills involved in puppy training, differing pet routines and needs, positive reinforcement, and how to keep each and every dog comfortable and happy. I prioritize consistent care and reliability, so you can feel confident that your dog is in good hands. I am currently a student but have a decently flexible schedule, and I will have plenty of time focused towards availability and care for your pets. If needed I will pursue another part-time job to provide me with a livable income, but I will continue to communicate changes in my schedule availability. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in my client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and fun environment. I learn each pet’s routine include mealtimes, medications, walks, and any other needs the dog may need. I make sure each puppy is given the proper attention they need with positive interactions, any needed space, and I am very adaptable to each dog’s personality. I also prioritize cleanliness in every client’s home and use proper communication with clients to satisfy their needs along with their pets’ needs.

About: I have helped raise two dogs growing up, one cocker spaniel and one golden retriever. I have also somewhat raised outdoor cats. I’ve pet sat for over 5 cats and 3 dogs. I love taking care of animals and becoming buddies with them. Big dogs do slightly intimidate me so I would like to stick to small to medium dogs. My boyfriend and I are also taking care of his brothers cat at the moment so that gives me some entail on how to care for a cat. I live in Columbia but for the summer I am spending my days in Union. I am from Hermann and work there as well so I am willing to drive to take care of your furry friends. I work from 9am to 3/4pm (depending on the work load I could get done earlier) and I don’t have set days I work but I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I know some animals can be difficult but I have patience to take care of them. Kindness and compassion are two things that animals need from us and I give them all of it. I will care for your pets based on all the information you give me and if I have any questions I will ask. I also have many friends with animal experience who can help me out if needed. I won’t mistreat your home and will clean up after myself as well as keep it cleaned. I can keep your home and pets safe.

I have currently two dogs of my own and in the past have had cats guinea pigs, and other animals that have lived long happy healthy lives. I’m very reliable and dependable, and I would love to care for your pets! I’m currently only working part time which gives me lots of time with your pets I can do Monday's through Fridays from 8:30 to 4:30 but that is flexible if needed! I currently have two female dogs, both spayed, very energetic and love to play and would love to give your pup company unfortunately I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I am very good at keeping my attention on the dogs at all times your pets would be very safe and looked after

About: I’ve raised two dogs myself, a hound mix and a German shepherd/Labrador mix. I may need as many walks as dogs do, so I’m your girl when it comes to dog walking! I do have a very flexible schedule most days, so I should be available to play with or walk your pup whenever you need it! I offer check-ins and walks. I do not have pets in my own home, but I am available to dog-sit in the owners home. I feel that’s where the dog will be most comfortable anyway.

About: I haven't had my own pets in a long time, but I've cared for over a dozen pets that I treated like my own despite belonging to others. I've introduced myself to and won over plenty of pets with my calm and collected approach. The majority of my pet care experience has been through visiting the homes of family friends to give their dogs bathroom breaks and be sure they have some company for a while as their owners are at work or on vacation. On multiple occasions, I've also stayed overnight for multiple days at a time. Because of this, I'm well equipped to meet your pets smoothly and cohabitate with them. I currently work remotely and have plans to attend college online, so I'll have more than enough time to visit at the very least. I can absolutely stay over, as I can simply work wherever I have my laptop if need be. Your pets will always be the first priority, of course. I do not have pets of my own at the moment, but I always treat other people's pets as if they were my own and with respect. If they want attention, they get it. If they want to be left alone, they will be left alone (within reason). Any instructions regarding feeding and medicine will be followed strictly.

About: My family raises Sheepadoodles and I live on a multi species farm in Wildwood. I worked for Puppingham Palace in their daycare. All age dogs. I am currently working a full time job I work week days only and will typically be available morning and evenings Monday- Friday and All day on weekends. The security of your pet is my highest priority. I am a stickler for all dogs to be properly fitted in their walking apparel prior to exiting the home and the security of all exits when leaving the home. I want your animal to feel secure, loved, and all needs including meds, feeding, and walking schedules to be consistent and timely. I have the highest respect for your privacy and homes contents. I am a fun, energetic and responsible, enthusiastic caregiver that has the mindset that your pet will feel cherished when you are away so you can relax and enjoy your much deserved or required time away from them knowing they are in competent trustworthy hands.

About: From personal experience, I have had a dog for about 8 years now. Full pit bull and I love him dearly. I only have one, but am thinking about another. With new dogs I don’t know I am always gentle to start until they get to know me. I’m currently working part-time at Sarah’s on Central and typically work Thursday-Sunday. Starting in August I will be attending Maryville University as well. In my home, I only have one dog who honestly does get spoiled to death but he loves it that way. If I’m home all day I will take him out every 2-3 hours just to make sure he is all good and everything and if able will go with your dog as well unless less time is needed.

About: My friends tell me that I am an animal whisperer haha! I love the company of an animal and giving it all of my love! I used to have a dog of my own, we were best friends, but unfortunately he passed away a few years ago. I’m not at the best spot in my life to have my own pet again so I wanted to find a way to still love on animals and have their presence! I currently have a full time job in St. Louis. I am available to WFH if I need to watch your pet(s) during the week!! More than happy to do so :) We have a very large yard/field behind my home but it is not fenced. I will be sure to have your puppy on a leash if need be!!! We also live in a neighborhood, off of the main road in town. I am also available to watch them in STL as I have family that live there!

About: I have had pets as long as I can remember, and they’ve always been a big part of my life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and cats and making sure they feel loved and well taken care of. I am currently on summer break from college, so I have a very flexible schedule. Whether your pet needs fed, playtime, walks, or just someone to hang out with, I’ll make sure they’re well taken care of! I’m currently on summer break from college, so I have a lot of time on my hands. My schedule is very flexible, and I will often accept same-day appointments. I make sure pets feel cared for while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I allow pets to get plenty attention and playtime, making sure the home stays clean and secure.
