Pet Sitting in Garrison

About: I have taken care of senior dogs who are no longer themselves, dementia, potty issues, etc. I have taken care of kittens and puppies less than a week old as well ! I have an open schedule so most times of the day work for me. I would prefer nights or overnight sitting. It is very rewarding. I can easily defuse situations that aren’t going as planned. If crate training is something you do that’s no problem! I grew up around crate training and keeping your pet safe is my top priority!

About: Hi I will watch any animal I have experience in reptiles and small animal and of course dogs and cats. I'm studying to be a vet technician. I work a remote job and make my own hours. So I can help any type of pet at anytime. I'd love to work with anyone. I have two dogs and a guinea pig I will be getting my piggies a friend soon. My dogs go on so many walks and love to play and have zoomies.

About: I’m very intuitive with animals and quickly understand their routines and needs. I carefully follow care instructions and focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I enjoy building trust and giving each pet personalized care. I love animals and taking care of loved family members. I am also just trying to get enough money to pay for the rest of my college tuition. With my cat, I feed him 1/2 of a can of soft cat food 2 times a day with a treat at the end of the night. My pickles doesn’t need much care, he is already a very independent cat. When it comes to others pets, I closely follow each owner’s instructions so their pet receives the exact care, attention, and routine they’re used to.

About: Hi, I'm Jerica! I live in Ozark, Missouri and run Earthbeet Farm with my partner. Prior to settling in Ozark, I moved around for a couple of years as a pet / house sitter domestically and internationally via Trusted Housesitters. I'd now like to open my home to your pets or enjoy getaway-sits. We have a large property along a creek and near the forest. We are flexible with sitting situations, animal needs, and schedules depending on the season. I am available for drop-ins, overnights or extended stays at the pet’s residence as well. We have a large property along a creek that does not have fencing, however we have a kennel and indoor living space. If we are sitting, it is best for a dog that likes to stay close by or not likely to run off. I am a tidy animal lover, and when sitting at someone’s residence, I treat their home and pets as I would treat my own.

“I love the pictures and timely visits to my cats while away for christmas. She made sure they were fed and had clean water and took time to play with them even for a few minutes. This was beyond what we expected. I will hire her again if she is available when we go out of town again.”

About: I have taken care of many kinds of pets ever since I was 10 years old. I have experience giving baths, giving medication, leash walking, post surgery care and scheduled feeding times. I am currently working full time but have free time on the weekends to stop in or take your precious fur babies on a walk. I have a small fenced in area for potty breaks and am comfortable crating your pet if needed. I have two dogs of my own that are very friendly and can keep your babies company as well.

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience and genuine love for animals. I am a retired Quarter Horse and dog rancher with over 54 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. Throughout my life, animals have never just been a job—they’ve been my passion, my pride, and my joy. I service BRANSON MO, TABLE ROCK AREA, NIXA & SPRINGFIELD In addition to running a ranch, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant, which gives me a deeper understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. I’m comfortable recognizing signs of stress or illness and responding appropriately. I treat every animal in my care like family. Whether it’s a quick visit or an extended stay, your pets will be cared for with the same attention, patience, and love I’ve given my own animals for decades. Their comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. With my background, you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in experienced, capable, and truly caring hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work during the day, but I dedicate my evenings and weekends to pet sitting, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, consistency, and care during those times. My schedule works especially well for pet owners who need reliable evening check-ins, overnight care, or weekend coverage. I make sure each visit is unhurried so your pets receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, so even with my daytime responsibilities, I prioritize making time to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets in their home by keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm and safe. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, medications, and daily habits. With my background as a rancher and former veterinary assistant, I pay close attention to behavior and safety. I also treat every home with respect—keeping it clean, secure, and just as I found it. I provide updates so owners feel at ease, and I treat every pet like my own—with patience, care, and love.

About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and birds since I was a teenager. I love them all and will go the extra mile to care for them. I will walk them, play with them, bathe them, and feed them. I'm available 7 days a week, but will only care for one families pets at a time, so first come first served. I take last minute same day requests. I will watch your pets in my home or yours. I don't have any of my own pets right now so yours will get all of my attention and care.

“Bree was absolutely amazing with my pup! My Ambrosius is a only about 9wks old but she handled him so well! She was always on time for her check-ins and followed the list of instructions I left for her. She also communicated with me and even made sure that my 4 kitties never got outside during her visits (even tho she was there for my pup)! She left me wonderful notes and took such beautiful pictures of Ambrosius! I was always confident my pup was safe/in good hands when Bree stopped by for me! I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: I’ve actually been pet sitting for years and have volunteer experience with the ASPCA. I’ve cared for senior and special needs dogs. We love all pets though I’ve even pet sat lizards snakes and cats. My schedule is pretty flexible I work remotely as a contractor for a big company Monday through Friday. Although I’d prefer daytime bookings let me know what you’re needing My dogs eat chicken free food cause our pug is allergic. Mushu’s special care is we wipe his wrinkles & ears daily with a weekly bath. Buddy is a tank who can eat anything but he needs his paws trimmed once a month. Buddy deals with anxiety from being a sheepdog with no sheep so he has lots of toys and an occasional cbd treat.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. They are not like family, they are family. Many friends and relatives have entrusted me to care for their pets for short and long stays at my home where they receive love, attention, play, and care. When caring for your pets, they will not be alone for more than 4 hours at a time during the weekday. Evenings and weeknights they will not be alone for more than an hour at a time. I have a large fenced yard and close access to a public park for walks. I enjoy playing with animals and giving them attention and care.

About: We love dogs! We are called first when any of our friends go out of town. We have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages from older doxies to young mutts and we love large rotties too. We are also okay with special needs dogs and we make sure your dog gets their medications when scheduled. Our lab loves to make new friends with dogs of all sizes. We have a nice privacy fenced in back yard with a kiddie pool to help the dogs keep cool during the summer even though they will spend most of the time inside. Please know that if your pup stays with us he or she will be treated like a part of the family. We love dogs! I help my Dad on his farm only when I'm not scheduled to care for a pup I'm hosting. I'm free to stay at home all day with your pet. I always keep an eye on what's going on. I'm usually outside if our pups are. If I'm watching a pet at your home, I don't make messes.

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 treat every pet like my own and pay close attention to their unique needs. I have experience with puppy training (potty, crate, and leash basics) and caring for senior dogs who need extra patience or medication support. I also provide regular updates so you always feel confident your pet is in great hands. I am working full time but will be able to tend to your animals within my given availability! Your animal will be in great hands When caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, clean, and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate time, and any training reinforcement — so the transition feels smooth and stress-free. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s routine. I stick to detailed care instructions, provide plenty of attention and exercise, keep litter boxes or yards clean, and send regular updates with photos. My goal is always to keep pets happy, comfortable, and cared for just like you would at home.

About: ~~ I’m the perfect sitter for your anxious, mellow or chill or senior dog as I have a calm and peaceful presence. ~~ What sets me apart is that I work remotely, which allows me to be present with pets throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. This gives me the flexibility to respond to their needs, routines, and energy levels. I’ve had experience with animals for many years. I previously owned a black lab named Aurora, and I currently have an orange cat of my own. I also regularly help care for my mother’s two dogs — a Maltese Schnauzer and a Golden Retriever — and I’ve looked after my sister’s dog multiple times in the past as well. Animals tend to gravitate toward me because I pay close attention to their body language, boundaries, and personalities. I’m very mindful of their cues and comfort levels, which helps me understand what they need and how they’re feeling. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’d be happy to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. If I’m housesitting, I’m practically readily available. I work a full-time remote job that will still allow me to be present and handle the tasks needed to care for your pets. I would have time to see them in intervals multiple times a day with no problem and with plenty of time for play. But if drop in visits, I can do 2-3 drop in’s. 1st at 7:30-8:30a, 2nd at 11a-1:30p and 3rd at 4:30p-10p - depending on my work schedule and the daily demand. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the understanding that it is first and foremost your pet’s home and safe environment. I’m very respectful of both the home and the routines that your pet is used to. I keep the environment calm, clean, and consistent so your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and house rules. I also avoid loud noise or disruptions and aim to maintain the same peaceful atmosphere your pet is used to. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for, while also treating your home with the same respect I would my own.

About: I've taken care of several dogs and cats for friends and neighbors, whether that's just checking in or staying overnight. I am avaliable to accompany the pets for extended hours or days. Pet sitting is my full time job, so I am usually available whenever! I'm able to either stay with the pets or check on them periodically. I am able to watch pets at a client's house, always keeping an eye on them and making sure they're doing alright. I prefer visiting and/or staying in their environment, making sure the pets more comfortable and less stressed.
