“Strong, compassionate walker”
My name is Sarah. I'm a young professional with a profound love of dogs. I've been dog sitting for friends, coworkers, and people in the St Louis area for about 3 years now, and I volunteer at a local animal shelter as a dog walker. I’ve met some truly amazing dogs during that time and I look forward to meeting yours.

“out til' Sep w/foot injury, miss your pups tons”
Hi, I'm Jim. I grew up with dogs and have always enjoyed their company. I understand that my clients consider their pets as family. Each dog has it's own personality and I love spending time with them. I could also use the exercise. I've volunteered at animal shelters and haven't met a doggo I didn't like. I have a second job and usually am not available from 4PM to 11PM Mon-Fri

“A walk is always better with a fur baby or 2 or 3.”
I have always had a dog in my life. I love taking the 2 I have for walks but I also like to get extra walking time in for my own exercise and it is always more fun to have a fur baby with you on the adventure.

“The Dogwalker”
I have been around dogs all my life. I worked as a professional pet groomer when my husband was in the Air Force. I have rescued and found homes for 7 dogs over the years. I started my own pet sitting business when I lived in Birmingham. I now live in Sugar Hill with my Labradoodle Maya and my Schnoodle Sophia. I love dogs and cannot wait to meet yours.

I love dogs and really all animals. I've owned dogs, lived with dogs, and dog sat in the past. I can't have dogs where I live now, so getting to walk them is wonderful! I have experience with small and large breeds and welcome the chance to play with any type.

Hi, my name is Maddie, and I am so happy to be walking for Wag. I currently own a Pit/Rottweiler/Boxer mix named Midori who is the gentlest dog you'll ever meet. I adopted Midori from a shelter in Tucson, AZ while I was in college. I've been dog sitting dozens of dogs of all breeds for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I am also an active volunteer for Stray Rescue, which is just blocks from my apartment in downtown St. Louis. I have so much fun with all the dogs I care for, and I can't wait to have fun with your dog too!

“Understanding, thorough, caring”
I have always loved animals. I do not have a favorite pet. I actually found the love of animals from bringing in strays as a child and going through various training for Veterinary Ass/Tech positions. I really can't wait to provide an essential need for your pet. I have my own critters so I understand how important their care is to an owner/ pet parent.

Dog Walking in Oakland
Oakland is a picturesque country club community sandwiched in between larger municipalities like Kirkwood and Webster Groves. Oakland has one veterinary hospital that operates around the clock for any emergency your pup may have.
Oakland boasts three city parks: Loewanau Park, Monaco Park, and Backstoppers Park. Leowanau Park is a small community green space for you and your leashed dog to explore. Oakland plans to add more amenities to this park in the near future. Monaco Park is located at Sappington Road and Lockwood Ave. Monaco Park has a small gazebo for a bit of rest and shade.
Backstoppers Park is a park dedicated to fallen police officers. It is the city’s largest park and offers a picnic site and a pavilion. Backstoppers Park connects to Grant’s Trail, a paved, 8-mile trail that cuts across the communities in south St. Louis County. Along Grant’s Trail are several spots to sit and rest. Water is provided in many places along the way (for dog and person). A small playground sits in Backstoppers, and nearby is the St. Louis County Library.
A fourth park, Minturn Park, is also in the works (as of August 2017). Minturn will include some sculptured landscaping, plantings, and a loop walk for you and your leashed dog to get a scenic stroll.
