About: I’ve spent five years in the world of animal welfare. From daycare to rescue, learning about canine behavior. Handling dogs that may have abnormal needs is not something I shy away from! I have a passion for making sure every dog in the world is shown the love and affection they deserve. I’m a mail carrier (ironic I know) so my schedule varies each week. I am on call most of the time but can usually work a full day and still have availability in the afternoon. I am happy to follow any routine your dog may need as well as provide any extra care I can during the time you are away. Every dog is different and thus I am adaptable to whatever you and your dog may need!
About: The oldest cat I’ve owned lived to be 17 years old. He had issues with his thyroid and needed daily prescription medication which I gave him successfully at home. I’ve also cared for 3 kittens who needed to be fed milk from a bottle and litter box trained. I have experience caring for kittens to senior cats. I work from home so my schedule is pretty free to stop in and meet the needs of your cat. Providing fresh water, food, and thorough litter box cleaning are just the basics. I’m also readily available to provide gentle playtimes with your cat and to give loving pats, if they desire. My cats are provided with fresh water every morning and their water bowls are cleaned every week. My cats are fed a high quality homemade food when they ask/demand it. The litter box is checked twice a day and any waste is removed immediately. The area around the litter box is kept neat and tidy daily. A variety of safe, cat friendly toys are provided as well as a scratch pad. My current cat was adopted last year at 2 years old. She loves being outside and is an indoor/outdoor cat. The cats I have watched for friends, in their homes, were checked on regularly and all of their needs were met. I spent extra time with the cats, including the shy ones, just talking to them but not forcing my company on them.
About: I’ve taken care of pets on military bases for about 4-6 years watching animals and taking them out while people are on vacation or have been sent out of state somewhere. I’m fairly flexible. I work in the morning from 7am- 330pm So I’m good at spending time with them during my breaks and after work. I only work a few days a week so I am also good for night schedules. I try to keep my focus to the animal itself only touching things that relate to the pet and their environment. I am very respectful in a clients home, I’m good at cleaning up any messes quick and efficiently and don’t really get grossed out easily. I am good at following directions and keeping boundaries.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid, and know how important our furry members of the family are! I will go above and beyond to give you peace of mind while you’re away from your companion. I’m currently taking a few gap months before starting my next job, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet throughout the week. I am very responsible and will follow any specific instructions you have thoroughly. Protecting your pet and your home are my number one priority when pet sitting.
About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 18. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets while providing the best care possible for their furry family members. I am also skilled at basic training commands and am willing to teach your pet how to sit, lie down, come, etc. I am currently enrolled in college 3 days a week, but have plenty of time in between classes and on the other weekdays and the weekend to care for your pet. I am willing to follow explicit instructions to ensure the proper care and safety for your pet while in your home. I can clean, give regular frequent walks, and even bathe your pet if needed.
“Taylee was available during Christmas eve and Christmas to watch our cats while we were away with family. She did a great job at caring for Nova and sunshine. She has great communication and timing. I highly recommend.”
About: I have taken care of my own pets and friends, and neighbors for the past years since i was at least 13. I love animals and every kind! This is basically my job right now as a stay at home momma so i’m always here or always available to your pet for whatever they need! I have a front yard that is not fenced. I have 2 doggos and a one year old, we are a very pet friendly home :) My dogs are good with other dogs as well and my daughter loves dogs!! Me and my husband have a pretty good schedule so someone is usually always here with our pets.
About: I am available almost every day any hours, i am home every day with my son amd our pets and they are never alond more than about 2 hours if i need to run errands. The house is small but open to animals with access to comfy couches and beds to relax on. I love on your dogs like you would and provide companionship while you are gone. I have taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors, and everything in between. I have also taken care of dogs with health issues, and am comfortable doing so as long as any sick animals are cared for in their own home to protect those i have at home. I currently have a dog and cat that are both very comfortable with other animals and love to play.
About: I have had dogs and a couple cats, I would say that I am fairly knowledgeable about typical animal behavior. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Owned horses and have been around an assortment of other animals throughout my life. Currently work full-time but I am about to not be working full time and would like to do dog walking/hiking and such full-time. I will be available throughout the week at anytime of day. Hoping to allow dog sitting at some point in the future for clients as well. I have a fenced back yard and give them ample exercise. I have learned that biking is one of the best things for a dog, especially high energy dogs but also any dog really. They get lots of petting and one on one playing throughout the day as well.
About: I have around 5 years of experience working in animals shelters and veterinary clinics. I have loved all animals since I can remember. For the last two years I worked at a veterinary clinic where I was clinic assistant and the primary boarding assistant. My love for animals has never stopped and while I’m in Springfield attending Missouri State I am missing my own two dogs greatly. Your pets would be treated as if they were my own! I am currently a full-time student at Missouri State and have classes from 9:30-1:30 every day. I have some breaks in between depending on the day! My two dogs Angie and Finnley are my entire world. I can assure you that your pets would be treated with patience, love and kindness!
About: I've always been around pets and loved animals ever since I was little. I am currently studying to become a wildlife biologist so it's a big part of my life. I have a giant silly German shepherd who follows me around at home so I can handle bigger dogs if needed and I also know how to take care of cats. I'm currently a busy college student, I go to school Monday through Thursday and I have an internship on Friday. On Monday through Thursday, I'm available after 3 pm. On Friday, I'm available after 2. Just let me know what you would like me to do in particular and I can help out, whether that be how you feed them, play with them, or whatever your pet needs to be happy and taken care of fully.

annalise g.
“Annalise took excellent care of our pet and braved some bad weather as well, thank you”
Hailey F.
“Hailey worked as a nanny to my children during the summers until she moved to Oklahoma. During that time, she spent the entire day with them, taking them to the pool, the park, to play putt-putt, et cetera, and she truly became a member of our family. Hailey also took care of our dog during the day, making sure she was exercised, fed and watered, and, most importantly, loved on. She also served as our dog and house-sitter while we were gone for extended periods of time on vacation. Our pets are part of our family, and we want them to be treated with love and care. I'm happy to say Hailey does this beyond our expections. I do, without hesitation, trust Hailey with my home, and both my two and four-legged kids, and recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone who will care for their pets the way they would do so themselves.”

Caden C.
“Caden C. is an amazing pet caregiver because of the genuine compassion and love he feels for pets. You can see this reflected in how much effort he puts into keeping his two dogs happy and healthy. Caden cares for a 4 year old long haired German shepherd and a smallish-medium senior dog who was a stray originally. He takes them on multiple walks a day, spends hours playing fetch and other games, and feeds them balanced diets (not just dry food but a real complete diet). He always takes them into account when making plans and ensures he has time every day to meet their needs. Caden can put himself in the shoes of a dog and fully understands the amount of enrichment, exercise, and nutrition they need to be their best selves. He also loves animals in general and is devoting his life to become a wildlife biologists so that he can help them. Caden treats every animal he meets with gentleness and patience. He is the only person I trust to care for my pets while I am out of town.”
