Pet Sitting Bates City

“Ashley was great. She went above and beyond at each visit for our 2 doodles. She even took them on walks even though we have a fenced back yard so it wasn’t necessary. Took lots of pics each visit. Thank you. We would certainly recommend to others, and would contact again when needed.”

“Took great care of our boys while we were gone. They all got play time and attention. Had no worries or issues with anything from feeding needs to boxes. Will be having her stop in again the next trip we take for sure!”

About: I have loved dogs since I was a child. As a pre-teen, I used to go to my neighbors' homes to take their dogs for walks. Then, in 1993, my parents finally gave me my first dog—a black English Cocker Spaniel. I haven't been without dogs since. The first one was stolen when he was a year old. The second, another black Cocker, lived for 14 years. During that time, I also had a Yorkshire Terrier who lived to be 17. Currently, I have a 12-year-old female Papillon who came with me from Brazil a little over two years ago. I am Brazilian and qualified as a veterinarian in 2003. I spent six years working in a clinic treating dogs before switching to a different area of ​​veterinary practice for personal reasons. Since moving to the US, I have been a full-time mom, as my youngest daughter is not yet school-age. I believe a meet-and-greet is beneficial for both parties; it’s a time for pets and their owners to get to know me better, and for me to get to know the pet (I like to fill out a form during this time to record details about them). I understand that just like us, dogs need regular walks to stay happy, healthy and mentally stimulated. If life gets busy and you're unable to take your pup out as often as you'd like, I'd be happy to help. I also offer loving in-home care for pets who prefer to stay cozy and comfortable in their own home while you're away. Services offered: dog walker, boarding, drop-in visits and doggy day care. I offer other pet services upon request. I am currently a full-time mother and homemaker, so I do not have a job that keeps me away from home for long stretches at a time. I have a friendly 12-year-old female dog, but she doesn't know how to play with other dogs; she’s a companion for quiet moments rather than playtime. I have three children—aged 4, 6, and 9—who adore dogs and love playing with them. I live in a house without a fenced yard. The raised deck has a gate and is a spot where my dog ​​likes to hang out and watch the activity. I’ve installed a 34-inch removable fence in a small area where a dog can be left without constant supervision (provided they aren't a climber or a jumper).

About: We have fun with our toys, playing catch, chasing eachother, they go along with the diet you have in place and we always show them praise when they do good! I’m a stay at home mom, with two kids and two dogs! It’s a loving, caring and fun environment! I have more than enough time to care and love your furry loved one! I have two fur babies here with me, one medium one large but both friendly and easy to play with, I can kennel either one of them up at any time if need be!

“Saige is awesome! She goes above and beyond to care for my pup and to communicate concerns. Great peace of mind when traveling knowing my pup is receiving high quality care. Thanks!”

About: Hi! I currently work at a dog boarding/daycare facility, so I am experienced in the care and safety of pets! I own 6 pets at home, and I have always had many pets growing up. I wish to become a zoologist someday so I can create conservation acts to save animals. I am here to ensure your pet is cared for! I usually work around 4 days a week for my job and I have 6 hour shifts. If I were to house sit for your pets I would have plenty of time in the morning and afternoon to make sure your pets are fed, let out, and played with! Making sure pets are provided with their needs is important to me! Working at a dog boarding facility provides me with many opportunities to care for varying types of dog behaviors! I have had to help dogs with anxiety, aggression, and possession. I have greatly improved my skills to ensure dogs are safe and comfortable in my care.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to travel for pet-sitting jobs and even stay overnight when needed, as long as there’s Wi-Fi so I can keep up with my classes. Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.

About: While I don't have formal experience, I've spent my whole life taking care of pets at home. I've even raised our current pups from puppies to adulthood, handling everything from feeding to playtime. My goal is to treat every pet like part of the family. I'm currently a college student down in Springfield, but whenever I'm back in town for breaks or summer, I will have a fairly flexible schedule! I'm available on the weekends, evenings, and soon to be during the weekdays as well! Every pet deserves the family treatment! I'm careful to follow their set routines and rules - whether it's playtime, feeding, or crate time. Your pet's safety always comes first!

About: I am 23 and work Monday through Friday full time and I have been around dogs my entire life. Currently I have 6 dogs: 2 chocolate labs, 3 dachshunds, and a jack Russell. 4 of our dogs were adopted from other families and 2 were puppies when we got them. Being around multiple dogs breeds and training puppies make me a great candidate to take care of your dog or dogs. I work full time and can do two drop in visits during the week and three on the weekends, I can walk, bathe and feed. I will ensure that your dog is take care of, if there is an issue I am easily reachable and will help make the experience best for you. I am very versatile when it comes to caring for your dog as I have dealt with elderly and puppies my whole life being around multiple breeds has helped me understand dogs more.

“Caitlin was wonderful at taking care of my two spoiled enormous dogs! This is the first time we've used a pet sitter and we will be using Caitlin's services in the future. The dogs were more relaxed being at home and frankly I was relaxed on vacation. She gave them medicine they needed and kept us updated with lots of pics and it was truly a great experience.”

About: Throughout my life, I've been deeply immersed in caring for animals, particularly dogs and more recently, cats. Growing up, dogs have been a constant presence in my household, from nurturing puppies to tenderly supporting elderly dogs in their final stages. This journey included responsibilities like changing diapers and ensuring their comfort, reflecting my commitment to their well-being throughout their lives. Seven years ago, I expanded my animal family by welcoming my first cat into our home, a decision that has enriched my life beyond measure. Currently, I share my home with two cats and a lively two-year-old dog, each bringing their unique joy and companionship. When it comes to caring for animals, my approach varies based on their needs. For elderly dogs and all cats, I prioritize providing them comfort and support in their own familiar environment, ensuring their days arr still filled with love and care. On the other hand, for dogs that still revel in the company of their peers and enjoy playtime, I eagerly open my doors to host them, providing a safe and welcoming environment. Overall, my experience with animals has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and adaptability in meeting their diverse needs. It's a privilege to share my life with these wonderful creatures and to provide them with the care and love they deserve. I work from home most days, and so does my partner. I can ensure there is continued care and commitment offered to your furry companion. In your own home, I can work to ensure the same routine your furry companion is used to is maintained. In my home, they will have the opportunity to play with my in house dog, visit the dog park every afternoon, with a long evening walk, and short walks throughout the workday.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, and turkeys, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all kinds from a young age. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, gaining experience with everything from puppy potty and crate training to feeding, walking, bathing, administering basic care, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I'm currently working part time, so I have plenty of time within my days to love and care for your fur babies while your're unable to! I have a fenced yard with lots of other friendly dogs that are always eager to have another playmate! Between crate training, potty training, or walks with your pup I am able and willing to do it all!

About: Hello! I’m Sarah! I’m an animal lover and have experience with pets of all breeds, shapes, and sizes! I think the most important part of caring for any pet is getting to know them! I would love to meet for your furry friend! Pet care is such a huge part of my life. Between my zoo of animals and the ones I get to meet through rover it is a full time job. I have never had a job I loved more! I have 3 cats and 1 dog who I love very much! All of them are spoiled rotten. My cats are indoor and my pitbull-dachshund mix comes and goes inside/outside as he pleases! Every pet is different and every household operates differently, so I am willing and ready to care for your pet however you may prefer!

“Jasmine was amazing with my Precious. She kept me informed, arrived as expected, and spent so much time caring for my cat. She went beyond expectations on every visit. 100% the best sitter.”
