Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Wydown-Skinker

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life. I have raised my own dogs and have helped friends, neighbors, and family with theirs for years. I am comfortable with all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I am dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Whether it is walks, feeding, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog as if they were my own. You can expect consistent communication while you are away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I am currently fully available and have a very flexible schedule. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I can accommodate weekdays, weekends, overnights, and extended stays. Your dog will receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I am especially available for in home sitting, which allows pets to stay comfortable in their own environment. I have a secure, fenced patio (with designated turf potty areas, and one friendly, well socialized dog. I am happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including crating if needed, feeding schedules, medication, and exercise preferences. While I can host in my home, I prefer sitting in your home so your dog can remain in a familiar, stress free setting. I am respectful of your space, attentive to detail, and focused on keeping your pet safe, calm, and well cared for at all times.

“she takes great care of my babies and my house is in good condition when i get back. communicative about changes to schedule and accommodates my changes too.”

“I booked Hope to care after my two cats, while I took a 5 day trip. She came over for a meet and greet a few days before I left and the cats were receptive to her very calm demeanor. That's a big plus when you introduce a new person to your pets. I have a cat with diabetes and needs insulin shots, twice a day. He can be uncooperative with others giving the shot, but she was successful on each occasion. I received timely updates after each of her visits and positive messages, which give assurance that all was ok back home. I was extremely happy with her care and will definitely hire her again.”

“Megan was fantastic! We met up beforehand which was very much appreciated, she sent lots of pictures and great notes and my kitties are happy!”

Katie V.

“TzuYu was a wonderful cat sitter; she did everything I asked of her, played with my cat, and sent lots of pictures. I will be asking her to take care of my cat for my next trip too”

Carly S.

“Danielle was wonderful! She took great care of my dog, and had no problems with both the instructions for her and for the house. (the last sitter didn't follow instructions, and set off the burglar alarm) She also sent several photos with each visit, and was excellent with communication. Heidi and I will definitely contact Danielle in the future!”

Valerie M.

“Hayley is great. We just met. And she just met JP. She was aware enough to give JP her space because JP is very shy and sometimes scared. I definitely want to hire Hayley again. I will be requesting those dates soon.”

Susan W.

“Brenda is great, she gets along well with both of our cats! She spends time to play with each cat and give them attention, and provides great updates!”

Hayden B.

“Suzanne was excellent with Riley (second time she watched him). Unfortunately, he got sick as soon as we left town and she advised us immediately, we suggested changing his diet, and she was kind enough to clean up after him. She was patient and kind and we greatly appreciate her concern, support, and care for Riley!”

Paul D.

“Amazing I really trusted my pet with her and my cat has some special care needed. Very communicative and helpful. Went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend”

About: I have grown up with dogs and since middle school have pets sat for many pets including dogs, cats, and birds. I am currently a dog walker volunteer at the Humane Society of Missouri where I have walked and enriched all breeds of dogs. In addition, I have walked all ages of dogs from puppies to senior dogs. I am a big dog lover and can’t wait to help out in anyway I can! I have flexible hours outside of school class times and am happy to come in anytime to walk or drop in. I’m very patient, kind, and would happy to meet and greet before taking care of your pets! Reach out with any questions you may have. I currently work part-time and am a college student. During the week, I have early morning (6-8 AM), late afternoon and evening availability. I have all day availability on Saturday. My schedule will change soon once summer starts where I’ll have all week availability in the afternoons and evenings and Saturday and Sunday availability. Safety and trust are two very valuable qualities and I strive to meet those every time I meet a dog. I make sure to read dog’s body language, and understand their behavior and temperament. I am more than happy to walk dogs around most neighborhoods, drop in and care for your dog, and pet sit overnight on weekends. I love to walk and run around the Saint Louis County Area and parks around STL such as Forest Park and Tower Grove. I will make sure to meet all the needs of your dog, care for and love them, and take them on any adventures they want to.

“Sophia was so great with Senna! Super responsive to a last minute request. Came home to a happy puppy each day! Had absolutely no issues, but was confident she would be able to handle anything and/or reach out to me. Also an excellent photographer!”

Ethan S.

“Ross did a great job with our two cats. He provided exactly the care we requested and spent time playing with our young cat to help her get out that pent up energy! He also provided superior communication. We greatly appreciated his sitting services”

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.

“Emily does a great job with Georgia. She’s in tune to her moods & plays when she wants to play. Then lets her chill when she wants to chill.”

Sharon S.

“Sophia is an outstanding sitter. I left her a few pages of instructions and she was very diligent with following them and going the extra mile. There were some things she did without me asking and that goes a long way. I am usually stressed about my cats when I leave but I didn’t feel any stress at all with her watching them. She provided a lot of pictures and made an effort to befriend the cats too. I will use her again in the future if needed. Thank you thank you!”

Alena H.

“Riley was very detail oriented, prompt, and friendly and my cat warmed up to him immediately. He is going to be my #1 choice of sitter in St. Louis!”

Rajin C.

“Megan is amazing! She was very accommodating and flexible! Fast response time and my dog Ruby loves her! I would highly recommend Megan and we will definately be having her over again!”

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!
