About: From a young age I've always gravitated toward the unconditional love that an animal provides. Throughout my life, I've cared for miniature Yorkies all the way up to 90lb German Shepherd's. I’m currently a graduate student at Drury University so my schedule is flexible. Recently adopted a French bulldog and I'm looking forward to caring for yours! Your animal will have the peace and quiet of a house with only one other small French bulldog and no children. I would love to take your furry friend for a walk or relax at home.

About: Hi! My name is Madi! I am a fresh biology graduate from Drury University dedicated to the care of all animals. I have experience taking care of pets for multiple years for family, friends, and neighbors. Growing up I had two schnauzers of my very own, and I regularly volunteered at the Dickerson Park Zoo.

I am open to working around your schedule and helping out in any way I can to ensure your pet gets the best care possible while you are away. I am open to a wide variety of care options. All I require is a detailed instruction sheet on your pets’ preferences, so that I can ensure they are as comfortable as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I’ve been pet sitting for the past 2 years. I love all animals. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and care for their pets.

About: I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and truly invested in your pet’s well-being. I follow instructions carefully, prioritize safety, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My background has taught me the importance of consistency, observation, and communication — things that matter just as much in pet care as they do in any trusted role. Pet care fits into my routine because I’m organized, reliable, and intentional with my time. I only accept care requests when I know I can give pets my full attention. For daytime dog walking and drop-in visits, I care for pets in their own home where they are most comfortable. I follow each pet’s established routine closely, including walk schedules, feeding instructions (if applicable), and any special notes you provide. During walks, I focus on safety, positive interaction, and your dog’s individual pace and needs. I make sure they get appropriate exercise, potty breaks, fresh water, and attention. For drop-in visits, I check on their overall well-being, provide companionship, and ensure their environment is safe and secure before leaving. I’m attentive and observant during every visit, watching for any changes in behavior or needs, and I communicate clearly with updates so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: Ozark, Springfield, and Kimberling City Areas I work full time but enjoy spending afternoons, evenings, and weekends taking care of doggies! I have had a family dog for since I can remember. I recently took on my own dog after college and just added another to the family! I love getting the dogs out to run and play, we go to the park and open fields so they can be off the leash. I trained my Brittany when I first got him and he's done excellently. I love being able to play and cuddle with our boys. Charlie will go on runs with me, kayak, hike, paddleboard, you name it! They don't leave our side very often! I currently work full time 8-5 pm with an hour lunch break. I'm available most evenings and weekends. We do take the dogs along for many car rides and they will chill in the car for when we run errands to the store. We live along a golf course so there are plenty of places to walk and run. We do not have anything fenced in so we will occasionally go to a football field or baseball field so the boys can run where we can better watch them. Both our dogs are super sweet and play well with others. We have room to board your dog if you can bring their kennel for overnight stays.
