Pet Sitting Wydown-Skinker

“Gabbie is great! My pup is pretty shy and going through some health concerns. Gabbie was attentive to what my dog needs, has been consistently on-time and has built up trust with her in the span of a week. Sadie seems really excited when Gabbie comes by and seems to enjoy their mid-day play sessions!”

About: Coming from an animal loving family and already volunteering part time at the Humane Society, I just can’t get enough of walking dogs — especially big ones ! My family’s dog, a total mixed breed that we raised from a puppy, is a modest 80 lbs. Before we got him, I grew up with a border collie and a cattle dog mix, so I deal well with high energy breeds. I’m happy to take them on 2+ mile walks multiple times a day. I have always had dogs, so I have a lifetime of experience raising, training, and taking care of them. I currently work part-time as a French teacher, frequently online, so I have a lot of free time to spend with your pet. Plus, if I am staying long term at your house, my students will love to see your pet pop up on my Zoom video! I can adapt to whatever your pet needs. If you have a pet that just needs feeding and a potty break/litter box scooping, I can provide that. If your pet is a little needier and needs playtime, ear rubs, and someone’s lap to sit on, I’m also eager to provide. I understand that each animal is different.

“Natalee always does a great job. This time she was observamt and noticed some health issues with our cat. This helped us to promptly respond and get him the care he needed. Thank you Natalee!”

“Hope is always our first choice cat sitter. She is consistently reliable, kind, communicative, and competent. We appreciate her so much. She even left a bonus toy for the cats during her last visit which they love!”

“TzuYu was the BEST cat sitter I could have asked for my ragdoll, Felix! She came to meet him because he is a rather shy cat, and she gained his trust over the week. She was very diligent sending pictures/videos, spending time with Felix and really getting to know him. She made me feel very comfortable about using the app. I strongly recommend having her watch your pets and/or your special felines!!”

“Sheldyn was an amazing dog sitter, and we would highly recommend her! Before watching our dogs, she took the time to meet with them and really understand their personalities, routines, and the care they needed. She was incredibly flexible with their schedules and treated both of our dogs with so much care and attention. We loved receiving regular updates about how they were doing, and she was always quick to let us know if she noticed anything that might be a concern. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about our dogs, which made us feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. Best of all, our dogs were always excited to see her and ready to play whenever she arrived! Sheldyn is kind, dependable, animal-friendly, and someone we would absolutely trust with our dogs again. 🐾❤️”

“Hayley went above and beyond! There were some unexpected fireworks during her drop-in visit, and she was so great communicating with us and making our dog Ruby feel comfortable and safe.”

“Sarah was PHENOMENAL! My pup is easily frightened so I was worried about having someone come in to take him out for his daily breaks. She was very patient with him and gave me detailed updates throughout the day. I am so glad I chose her to take care of my baby while I was away. I will definitely using her services again very soon !”

“Caroline has done drop ins with my dog quite a few times now! She has been great updating with any concerns and has gotten along great with my dog. She was very patient with my dog when she first started doing drop ins as she can sometimes be a little anxious with new people but she warmed up quick after our meet and greet and by the end of the first drop in (which she stayed longer for!) Would recommend, she’s been very good at following any instructions I have, and after several drop ins I definitely trust her a lot!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have always loved stepping up to take care of them. Even as a child, I loved taking our family pug Olivia on walks and feeding her breakfast and dinner. I worked for a summer as a dog walker in Chicago, working with clients whose dogs had a variety of routines. Some pups had very specific routes that they needed to go on for their walks, and some needed to be trained to stop at crosswalks or walk on a specific side of the sidewalk. Now I'm a med student who loves to explore the city and all the beautiful outdoor spaces we have in St. Louis. I have had a lot of experience with all different kinds of dogs, and I can't wait to get to know your fur baby! My school schedule changes by the week, but I am pretty reliably free from noon to 1pm during the week. Besides Wednesday afternoons, I have lots of free time during regular working hours to take your pet on a walk or check in on them at home, and I am also free during the day all weekend besides Sunday mornings. I have experience with all different personalities of dogs, including dogs like rescues who don't always like strangers or don't react well to different training techniques. I will always respect your dog's boundaries with physical touch/space, volume levels, eye contact, play time, and anything else that they are sensitive to.

“Cliff took such great care of my pup! They took a nice long walk together, complete with nice scenery and a cute photo. Cliff even came equipped with treats! Highly recommend.”

“So kind and caring”

Kelly T.

“Our dogs love Abby! I’m so grateful that Abby could watch our three dogs over MLK weekend. She sent us a ton of pictures and kept us updated frequently. I felt bad that one of our puppy had accidents but Abby was very kind and patient. Hope Abby will watch them again 😅 THANK YOU!”

Tina B.

“Ross did a great job caring for my cats and I recommend his services to anyone looking for a pet sitter. He was very trustworthy and provided great daily updates. Thanks Ross!”

Mackenzie O.

“Sophia was awesome with our cat. He needs so much love and attention, and she definitely delivered. Her messages about and pictures of their time together were priceless! We will definitely have Sophia come back.”

Laurie L.

“I felt so comfortable leaving my fur babies in Maddie’s care! She was so consistent, communicative, positive, and always sent me so many cute photos of them. I highly recommend her!”

Jacqueline W.

“Laura really made sure that she met each dog’s needs. I am so happy to have met her. We will definitely call on her again to help our little friends.”

Lynda C.

“Madeleine was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and she was extremely responsive and a great communicator. I felt super comfortable while I was away knowing that Madeleine was taking care of my pet.”

Frances P.

“Maddy did a great job with Fritz! I was so thankful that she kept coming back when we had an issue with a jammed lock on the first day and Fritz was obviously so happy to see her. Fritz’s new medications are a lot for him to get used to, so I’m so glad to have found someone who could give them to him.”

Gaby V.

“Virginia was so thorough in her care with Champ! I loved the frequency of updates and felt happy to know my old guy was safe and well attended to. I especially loved the sweet portrait shots she got of him and the daily puzzles. Thanks Puff!”
