“Communicated effectively and was great with pup!”

Stephanie M.

About: • 3 years as veterinary assistant • 1.5 years as a kennel tech for boarding • 3 years as an equine handler for youth pony rides • 6 months shadowing professional dog trainers • Enrolled in Animal Sciences at MU with pre-admission to MU College of Veterinary Medicine Despite the many years I have dedicated to animal care, my passion only grows. My experience in veterinary medicine has provided me the knowledge and confidence to recognize and handle emergencies effectively. Through the years I have collected helpful advice on pet behavior, pet health, and handling that I am always happy to share. I am comfortable handling and providing care to dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, and some exotics. I have always been recognized for my strong work ethic, and consider your pet’s health a top priority! I am currently working part-time in addition to being a full-time student. Weekends are perfect for me to care for your pet, however I can make some weekdays work as needed. In my client’s homes I am comfortable conducting any routine no matter how specific as I understand the complex needs of every pet. I am very thorough with directions, and have extensive experience medicating animals and handling emergencies.

About: I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember, with over 3 years of professional dog sitting experience and a lifetime of love for animals. I've raised and trained three of my own dogs from puppyhood and shared my life with four wonderful pups in total. Even during my toughest times battling cancer caring for my dogs brought me strength and joy. I treat every dog I care for like family, with patience, compassion, and plenty of tail wags. As an off-campus student at Mizzou, my class schedule may vary slightly each semester, but am generally available most days throughout the week. I'm flexible and happy to work with you to find the best times for your pet's care needs. Currently, I do not offer in-home boarding for new clients due to my two dogs at home, b continue to provide this service for existing clients. For those pets, I have a secure, fenced-in backyard where they can safely play and exercise, and I keep extra crates on hand if needed for rest or comfort. For dog walking services, I always bring a portable water bowl to keep pups hydrated- especially during warmer days-and use an adjustable harness for dogs that tend to pull more. also rotate between several sturdy, high-quality leashes to ensure walks are both safe and comfortable for every dog. Whether I'm walking your pet or visiting them in your home, their safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority.

“Abigail was great with our dogs! One is elderly and needs meds and special care and one is a handful! She was patient and kind and kept us well informed on our first trip after moving to the area. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

“I’m so thankful for Martina and the care she provided to my cat! She was always kind, respectful, and most importantly, my cat loved her. Thank you!!”

“Abigail will be our #1 animal caregiver going forward. With less than a week until our wedding, Knight (our 9-month old mini goldendoodle) developed a mild case of kennel cough. Since boarding was no longer an option, we hopped on Rover and found Abigail. She came over to meet Knight and the cats, and went above and beyond our expectations. Knight had frequent visits, lots of play sessions, and tons of attention while he was at home. Abigail administered medicine, and we came home to a happy and healthy puppy (all courtesy of Abigail). We recommend Abigail unconditionally and trust her in our home with our fur babies anytime.”

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician that works with dogs of all sizes and different temperaments daily. I'm comfortable with administering medications, doing nail trims, and picking up poop! I currently work full time at a Veterinary clinic, but am typically off Fridays-Sundays (I work rotating Saturdays until noon). I'm also in the Army Reserves, so I may be gone certain weekends. Feel free to reach out! I am willing to stop by your house (especially if your pet is more comfortable with that) to feed, water, give them medications if need, and clean litter boxes/walk - and give them loving of course! I can board small dogs in my home. I have a fenced in back yard that they are welcome to run around in.

“Lana did a great job with our dog Kaya! Lana came to come meet her prior to her drop-in visits and Kaya instantly made a new friend :) Definitely recommend Lana and will book her again in the future!”

“Our pets are always well taken care of any time Sharon comes over. She always communicates with us about anything that she may needs more info on. She's our go-to sitter!”

Louis B.

“Hailea was great! She communicated regularly about my kitties and sent great photos. When I got home, they seemed well taken care of and happy. I will be booking with Hailea again!”

About: I grew up with a cat and found a love for all my friends dogs. I have been working with animals since I can remember. I have also worked with Second Chance and have taken their train the trainer type class. I love training new tricks and starting a new bond with most animals (no spiders or snakes). I am a remote worker, which means I can come to you. I am able to take breaks throughout the day to take walks or give some attention to the Animals. Also if you have a puppy that needs to be potty trained I have a great schedule for that. While I will be coming to your place to take care of your animals, I would prefer to meet up at least once before watching your pet to make sure there are no problems. I also believe if I am watching your pet at your home any messes are on me to clean.

“Taylor has become a good friend of Dexter and me. On my recent trip away, she took care of my Bengal and was reliable and friendly. She also helped me after my schedule changed and I got home early. I had never needed to change a Rover reservation so she took care of it for me. Thanks, Taylor!”

About: Note: I love cats and offer cat sitting as well as dog sitting! I'm happy to stay at your house or visit your kitty while you're away. At this time, we can not board your cat at our home. Thank you! **We try our hardest to keep our calendar up to date so be sure to make sure we are available the week/day your pup needs a vacay** My wife and I both love dogs! We have one miniature Dachshund who is our spoiled little baby! We both work 5 min from home and have a very flexible schedule so we come home several times a day to check on our pup and walk her so your dog is sure to get LOTS of love and attention as well as plenty of outside play time. We do prefer to keep only medium and small dogs. This is for both your pup's safety and comfort as well as ours. We understand how difficult it is to leave your fur-baby but we want to make it a little easier on both you and your baby! From daily pictures sent directly to you assuring you that your dog is having a blast on their own vacay to video chats with your pet via Skype or FaceTime so your baby can hear your voice and you can see them running around and playing! We live in a town home in Regent Park and have a huge grassy common area behind our house for your pup to play in! We just installed a fence and some fresh sod in our backyard so your pup is sure to enjoy being outside with us on top of their walks! We also have several trails that we like to walk and would love for your dog to join us (if you are ok with it and your dog enjoys sunset walks :) My wife is home most days and I work only five minutes from the house so we are available all day day to spend quality time with your fur baby! I have a fenced in yard and lots of extra space for your pups crate/bed so they can be sure to feel right at home.

About: I am a pet lover and know how important it is for owners who can't take their furry friends along to have a place they feel safe and comfortable with. I have been watching animals of all species since I was a kid and feel comfortable with accommodating special care requests. I am very flexible with my schedule and am usually available to be with your best friends for most of their waking hours. I have a pet cam available if I need to leave them alone for a little bit. I live on a large countryside area a bit off the main road with lots of grassy unfenced area. I keep my home very clean but animals are allowed to snuggle with me on the furniture to make their stay as comfy as possible. I can make many accommodations according to how you like to care for your furry friend!

About: Animals have always been my passion, ever since I was young. Having four dogs and two cats at home, I’m experienced in multiple types of pets! Any special requirement for any dog is never too big of a task. Keeping the pet happy and comfortable is my top goal. I have worked with a senior dog, keeping him comfortable and as active as he can be was somethin I took pride in doing, puppies are also no trouble. Entertaining and making sure they potty where they’re supposed to. Messes are no problem though, upset stomachs are something that happen and it’s okay! Accidents happen too and I’m up to cleaning it. My schedule is normally pretty open. I have taken care of three dogs for years, and then having one more to the group to make four. I would be going to your home to help take care of your dog or cat. Keeping them comfortable is my main goal, I always wait with patience and take my time to try to bond with your pet.
