“Rachel did a great job with twice daily drop-in visits for my elderly mother’s cat. We were worried that her cat would be lonely without her around, but Rachel spent plenty of time with her and sent at least one pic every day. We felt 100% confident leaving her watching the cat and would highly recommend her! We came home to a happy kitty who was very well taken care of. 11/10!”
“I’m so happy with Sharon’s enthusiasm and love for animals. We connected well and so I know the boys (dogs) were at ease when they were with her.”
“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!”
“Olivia did an excellent job on her drop in visits with Griffin filling in while his regular Rover person was out of town. And as an added bonus, she brought her dog along a few times for playtime!”
“Mary is great! She has been coming to check in on our puppy during the day while we’re at work. She is obviously a big animal lover and we have been very comfortable having her take care of our little guy! I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs pet care.”
“Cats were well taken care of!”
“Grace was great with our pups and gave good feedback on the visits. She had the extra duty of wiping down their paws and bodies after our wet, rainy, muddy weather. She kept in touch and was very descriptive of their actions during her visits.”
“Bella is a fantastic drop-in sitter who did great with my exotic pets. I appreciate her flexibility of possibly adding a day when my plane had issues taking off on the way back from my trip.”
About: I have been around dogs and cats for my whole life. Whether it is dog sitting or walking my friends and family’s dogs or cats. I’m currently at student at the University of Missouri-Columbia. Being a dog walker helps me stay active as well as social opportunities in this new community. Growing up, I’ve always been around animals and by this I’ve gained different responsibilities with caring for pets. I’m well equipped with experience and responsibilities.
About: Loads of experience with dogs and cats. Have experience with crate training and potty training. We love running and playing in our large, fenced in yard. I work part time with plenty of time for your pets! I am available throughout the week and weekends. I am available for boarding in my home or drop by visits at yours.

About: In a personal and professional setting, I have taken care of lizards, frogs, crabs, shrimp, insects, mice, dogs, cats, deer, chickens, goats, sheep, fish, both native and tropical, and rabbits. I was born loving animals and quite enjoy learning new things about them. I greatly enjoy meeting new pets of any variety, and quite enjoy getting to know them. I am incredibly patient with animals and have a respect for their own personal selfs. I work full time, but I am usually free from 3pm to 10pm on weekdays. My weekend days are typically free anytime. I would love to figure out times between these frames, as I am typically flexible if given enough time to prepare. I was formally in the military, so you can be assured I know how to follow instructions. I do love to have a written list of tasks and care instructions. I am generally knowledgeable of baseline care, but I will gladly follow your instructions. I am incredibly respectful of others' spaces, and will be as clean as possible while in anyone's home. My general rule with any animal is patience and repetition.
“Brooke did a great job! I had a short notice, first-time booking and she replied quickly and was awesome with my two large dogs (one who is senior and needs daily pain medication). Ended up with and bad weather and she still made sure my pets were taken care of and communicated with me the perfect amount. I would work with her again and recommend her to others.”
About: I grew up taking care of many animals, including four dogs and four cats. I have also previously worked at a doggy daycare and animal hospital as a kennel technician.

I’m available for walks and drop-ins from 8am to 4pm on weekdays. Holidays may vary but please reach out. Weekends possible if needed. Let me know! I am willing to go for long walks, short walks, or just stay with your pet for a while for enrichment time. I can administer medicine if needed and can handle any challenges your pet may have.
“Lauren did such an awesome job checking in on the house and three kitties while we were away! One of the cats that usually hides when we aren’t there came out for pets. We will definitely be having Lauren come again in the new future!”
“Taylor did a wonderful job taking care of our pets! Great at communicating and keeping in touch too.”
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.
About: My name is Nicole and I have an associate's degree in animal care. During college, I interned at a vet hospital working side by side with the vets. For 5 years I worked with the vets of the Jacksonville Zoo in the animal health department-caring for sick, injured, and quarantined animals. After this I worked for a dog boarding and daycare facility, first caring for the dogs. Later I managed a daycare and a dog-walking business. I have worked with exotics, farm animals, native animals, and pets. Including mammals, fish, reptiles and amphibians. I got into animal care because I care for all animals. I can do medication, elderly care, and puppy care including potty training and crate training. I am currently homeschooling my children and my husband works from home. My schedule is very flexible and I'd love to care for your pets. For overnight pets, I have a fenced yard for playing, along with plenty of time to snuggle, play, and care for them. I have two friendly dogs that can play with your pet, or if you prefer I can play with your pet one on one and separate my dogs (giving your dog 2 hours of playtime with two hours of rest, repeating, throughout the day). For in-home visits, I will treat your home and your pets with care and respect. I will feed, play with, clean up after, snuggle with, change bedding, do medication or anything else you need.
About: I have extensive experience in pet sitting, and I take pride in providing loving, attentive, and responsible care for animals of all kinds. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or smaller pets, I make sure their needs are met with plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I understand that each pet has its own personality and routine, and I adapt to ensure they feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. From feeding and grooming to administering medications and handling special instructions, I stay detail-oriented and reliable. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free in my care. I am currently working full time during the week for the time being, so I will be mostly be available during the weekends. I eventually would like to make this more or a full time career so I can put forth all my time in taking care of your pets. I will bring traveling to clients homes to care for their pets as I would my own. I will do what is asked of me in order to ensure the pet(s) are thoroughly cared for in their home.
