If you're searching for top-tier dog walking or cat sitting in St. Louis, you’ve probably realized—there are a lot of pet care options out there. So how do you know who to trust with your fur baby when you're busy working, traveling, or just need an extra set of paws?

At House of Paws Pet Care, we’re not just another listing in your Google search. We’re redefining what pet care looks like in St. Louis—one tail wag and purr at a time. Here's what truly sets us apart from the pack:
Personalized Care, Not a One-Size-Fits-All Approach
We know that every pet is unique. That’s why our care plans are tailored to your pet’s personality, routine, and needs—whether your cat prefers chin scratches over cuddles or your pup needs a little extra time to sniff every tree on your block. We're not here to rush through a checklist. We're here to build trusting relationships with your pets (and you!).
Experienced, Pet-Care Pros You Can Count On
Our team is made up of trained, background-checked professionals who take pet care seriously. We're not hobby sitters or gig workers—we’re career animal lovers with the knowledge and experience to provide care you can count on. From medication administration to senior pet support, we've got the know-how (and heart) to handle it all.

We’re a Local, Woman-Owned Business (Not a Big App)
We’re proud to be a locally owned and operated small business based right here in St. Louis. No big tech middlemen, no overseas customer service. When you choose House of Paws, you're supporting a woman-owned company that puts heart into every visit and builds real relationships with St. Louis pet parents.

Enrichment-Focused Dog Walks (Not Just Potty Breaks)
Our dog walking services in St. Louis go beyond the basics. We focus on mental stimulation, exercise, and emotional wellness—whether that means sniffari-style walks, confidence-building adventures, or just some good ol’ fetch. We’re not just walking your dog. We’re helping them live their best dog life.
Cat Sitting That Actually Caters to Cats
Let’s face it—cats are not small dogs. They deserve care that respects their independence, quirks, and routines. We offer dedicated cat sitting services in St. Louis that are built for felines, not an afterthought squeezed into a dog walker’s schedule. Our sitters are trained in cat behavior, so we can recognize when your kitty wants to play, cuddle, or just be admired from afar.
