About: I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes and temperaments, including experience with rescue animals. I understand that rescued pets may need extra patience, time and understanding as they adjust to new people and environments. From playful puppies and energetic pets to senior companions and shy or anxious animals, I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable and loved. I’m experienced in working with a variety of personalities and understand the importance of respecting each animal’s individual needs and boundaries. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, medication routines or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet’s happiness, safety and well-being are always my top priorities! Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention, supervision and companionship for your pets throughout the day. I’m available for daytime visits, drop-ins, walks and pet sitting, with flexibility to accommodate your pet’s routine and individual needs. Working remotely allows me to be more present and attentive, helping your pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to discuss scheduling and find an arrangement that works best for you and your furry family members! Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness are my top priorities. With 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including rescue animals, I understand the importance of patience, trust and respecting each pet’s unique needs. I follow your instructions and routines carefully, provide a safe and comfortable environment, and take precautions to prevent accidents or escapes. I also respect your home and will send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!
“Chanel helped me tremendously on short notice. She welcomed my boy into her squad with open arms. Lenny loved his time there so much, he ran back to her when we were leaving! Chanel provided so many updates and photos. I can’t rave enough about how wonderful she was to my pup.”
About: This is an animals world, we’re just living in it! Every animal deserves the best live, full of love and treats. I’ve always loved animals my whole life. I unfortunately lost my dog 3 years ago due to old age, ever since i’ve been missing a dogs personality. I want to be able to be around animals without having to own one, since I haven’t had the chance to adopt another dog. I want to take care of other peoples animals and have animals company. Take them out every 2 hours for potty break and zoomies break. Every animals need to get their exercise in! And make sure they’re fed and watered at all times, or when the owner allows the pet to be fed. And can’t forget the treats for being such good buddies!
“The night before we arriving in Branson our other dog sitting fell through and Sarah rescued us by taking our last minute booking. She took great care of our two boys! She was very communicative and kept us updated on how they were doing, complete with pictures. She is very conveniently located if doing tourist activities in Branson. We would definitely use her again the next time we are in the area.”

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
