Dog Walkers in West Platte, MO

About: I started pet sitting when I was 17 and I have experience with both cats and dogs. I have taken care of senior dogs and cats and I am also comfortable with kittens/puppies. I am currently a college student but most of my classes are online. This allows availability for house sitting and pet sitting opportunities throughout the week. I always make sure my pets are on their leashes before opening the door to take them out for a walk or to go to the bathroom. Safety is always first both for our furry friends and myself.

About: Hello pet parents my name is Octavia (i prefer to go by my middle name)! I HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH MORE THAN JUST DOGS AND CATS SUCH AS CHICKENS AND DUCKS !! I am military and I am able to access base when needed. I am 21 years old and I LOVE animals!! Due to my Army career I live in a loft with my wife, my dog. Taking care of animals is my calling! I have now been in the Army for three years. I joined to further pursue my college education and become a veterinarian in the future. I am extremely passionate about the care that animals receive. I have volunteered for lots of shelters since i was young to learn all about animals and their needs, so it is my duty to ensure that your fur baby is well taken care of. Being that i worked with a lot of trained animal handlers, I have experience with animals who have many special needs such as diabetes, aids, cancer, seniors, etc. I also have experience with many different ages and breeds of dogs/cats. I previously worked at a groomers and volunteered at a pet shelter. At both establishments I fed the animals, bathed them, played with them, and took them out for restroom breaks. | love to stay active so I go on a daily walk/run and I would love for your pet to accompany me. I have plenty of room in my schedule to spend quality time with your pet. This would include going to the park, play time, and even cuddle time! While you are gone from your sweet fur baby, I will be available for communication 80% of the time. I am more than happy to send updates on how your pet is doing upon request. Anything that makes you and your pets comfortable I am more than happy to do. The less stress there is for you and your fur baby the better! I am here for your needs!! I am extremely excited to be pet sitting again as l did this before I joined the military. I work from 9-5 for the time being until my shift changes but am truly excited to be able to rush home and care for your pets. I will always keep you updated on my schedule being that my hours change every 3 months. I have a dog and a kitten right now and I constantly do research on their diet and behavior and their well being to make sure I am giving them the best possible life that they deserve.

“Oh my goodness she was fantastic! Lincoln was looking out the door for her for awhile after she left. 🥲”

“I booked Cooper for a 3-day walk with my dogs. It was really cold that week. On day 3, it was snowing, I told her that if the roads were bad, we can just cancel the walk. She came and walked the dogs that day. Really love her!”

About: I always insure that pets are comfortable! I’ve taken care of old cats and dogs, and I when they are old like that it’s important to meet their needs first, as most of the time they need a lot of guidance and help. I am currently going into online college, so most of my day is free! I often sit down and watch TV or play video games, but I mostly enjoy writing and drawing in my free time I personally like to ask owners how there pets are in the company of others, as well as if any weather bugs them! The comfort of my pets, and owners is always my number 1 priority! I want to make sure that they are comfortable around me, and I never approach any animal until I’ve let them sniff me, it’s important that they trust me to be around them.

About: I have worked in veterinary Kennels and in shelters. I am also a certified Dog and Cat trainer through Animal Behavior College in 2013. I have been trained in animal first aide. I have a military I.D. so I can also care for military families as well! I come home on my lunch break to let the dogs run in the yard (we NEVER leave the dogs outside on their own for safety from hawks etc). The longest they are alone is 5 hours. Our live revolve around our own dogs so they will feel like one of the family in no time. We have a fenced .75 acre yard that we stay out with them for safety. Older pups will be carried on any stairs to prevent any falls. Kenneling is a part of our home for safety. But if we are home they are out. The dogs have their own room where they kennel that has safety film on the windows so they can benefit from the light but are not tormented by the squirrels in the trees. Cats are kept in their own area as well. I know how important your dog is and I will treat them the way I would want mine treated. With the exception of errands and taking kids to school I am home full time. We treat visitors as one of the pack. Often our visiting pups like to lounge on the couch when not supervised in the yard. I have a fenced yard and dogs are not left outside unattended (especially the little ones). We have a multi layered floor plan so if a dog needs to be alone for a bit we have the ability to do so.

“A big thank you to Kara for such a great job with Holly! Kara really cares and knows what she is doing!”

“It was truly a pleasure to have Alyssa walk our girls on a regular basis. She's responsive, flexible, but above all, reliable. We thank you for being an outstanding Rover!”

About: Hi there! My name is Amber, and I live in Leavenworth, KS with a crazy, exciting household. I have a husband, a house full of kids, and a puurrrfect array of pets. I'm a stay at home mommy, and my husband is in the military. We have two dogs, two cats, and Speedy- the family mouse. Whether you are a local or a vacationer, I am happy to drop by and check on your family that just can't quite go with you everywhere (silly rules there are). I have mentioned I have a house full of kids. Most often my visits will consist of a kid tagging along. If they love to play, then they're in for a treat, as all my children love to play with all the pooches! I have experience in post-op care and dogs with "disabilities"- as one of my own was an amputee, and I'm a certified veterinary assistant from Animal Behavior College. Restrictions to breed, size, and age are non-existent. I only ask that they be good with children (from tagging along). I have reviews with Rover from years ago when my husband was stationed in Norfolk, Va that consisted of overnight stays. Due to an increase in family size, I am only available for drop- in visits. Leave your dogs and cats with me, enjoy your time, and have no worries! I'm currently staying at home raising my tribe. If your schedule is flexible, so is mine! We can discuss times for visits as my schedule has to be adjusted around the kids. A client's directions for care is priority for me to follow. Leash, crate, free roam in fenced yard, or even requiring a game of tug-of-war

About: Hello & thank you for stopping by my page! I have been around pets my entire life and couldn’t imagine my life without them. I am a dog & cat lover and I have 2 of each personally. I am a stay at home military wife with children. For drop in services, I do ask that my son be allowed to join me as my husband is in the military and his schedule is … very inconsistent 😅 My son is 3 1/2 with autism but when he goes to drop ins with me, he stays in his stroller the entire time and loves seeing all of the pets I get the pleasure of taking care of. I am very flexible and open about my schedule and always make sure that I can make my schedule fit around the needs of my clients and their pets needs as well. I always do a Meet & Greet visit with clients and their fur babies before the services are needed to make sure that your pet will like me & my children but also to make sure the client and I click as well. During drop ins, I am known to scoop poop (or sift a cat box), if needed I vacuum around the cat box as well. I clean water dishes before refilling and make sure your pets are taken care of to the same standard and expectation that mine are treated. I know going out of town is stressful for you and your pet so I am here to help make that smooth for everyone :)

“Great with our dogs!”

About: I’ve had dogs since childhood and consistently walk, let them out and play with them! When your pets are with me they get quality love. I work remote so I’m able to let them out on a regular basis. I also walk them 1-2 daily depending on what is needed. I have a large fenced backyard and plenty of space in house to roam, nap, and play. It’s a pet friendly environment and set up for pups.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve taken care of friends, family, and neighbors’ pets since I was about 15 doing drop in visits, going on walks and much more! I currently have a dog, two cats and 4 fish. I love taking care of animals! I work at my family’s business and have pretty flexible work hours. I can leave if needed to take care of pets during the day. With a schedule there should be no problem any day of the week. I take great pride in making sure each pet is loved, safe, and well taken care of. Cats and dogs are safe under my watch and will be well loved.

About: I grew up around animals and have had my own ever since. I lived on a farm in the country and loved every minute! Now living in the city I am only around 2 pets and I can’t get another because of my apartment restrictions. Getting to dog sit or walk even them would be so fun for me! I have a cat so I am taking care of him daily. My roommate also has a dog so I get to help with her too. I have a a bunch of pet toys, food and water, bowls, and beds! The pets are allowed to be on my bed and can cuddle up in blankets. I can put my cat in my roommates room along with her dog if the pet I am caring for cannot be around other animals. I usually sit out food and water just so if they are hungry they can eat whenever and I will just refill whenever they are scheduled next.

About: I like dogs because they encourage me to be active. Keeping pups clean and pretty is fun for me because my dog doesn't like water. I treat all dogs like children. I walk 2 Rottweilers everyday Monday thru Friday. Also, I walk and play with a Golden retriever named Hershey Monday thru Friday. I have stayed at my sister's house, she has a pitbull, blue heeler and lab mix. I have kept my parents Japanese Chin and Pekingese. So I have lots of experience with many different breeds of pups. I have never met a dog that I didn't get along with or that didn't like me. Dogs are like people and should be treated that way. I enjoy spending time with cats too. I am not a reptile person.

About: I've been an animal lover all my life! I've taken care of all types of animals to a rat, all the way to horses and everything in-between. I grew up on a farm and have had tons of experience taking care of animals from friends, family, and colleagues. I have a full time job but work 50% of the time from home so depending on the needs I can be very flexible! My dogs go out several times a day in my fenced in yard, and we go on walks regularly. My animals are very friendly but if your dog needs special attention my house is set up in a way for them to get extra space! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space. I understand routine can be very important for some animals so please let me know of any needs and i can try to make them feel as comfortable as possible

About: Hi, my name is Kelly and I have grown up with dogs since I was born and couldn't imagine life without them. As a teenager, I took care of our family dog and also was a dog sitter for friends. For the past 5 yrs, I have been mom to a wonderful german shepherd. She is my child and is treated as such, as all pets should be! We love to go on adventures and spend as much time outdoors as we can. As a sitter, I will treat your pet as my own and can send pictures to keep you updated. I have been a sitter for dogs, cats, and hamsters. We also had rabbits growing up. I have also been a dog walker for the ASPCA. I currently am teleworking full time so I flexibility for day time walks/visits around my meeting schedule. I am also available most weekends that I am in town. Having had lots of experience working with different doggy personalities and breeds, I’m confident and comfortable watching all dogs. Safety is obviously of the utmost importance and so I would like to know about habits and things to look for before watching your pup (i.e is your dog a door dasher or a counter surfer).
