“Thank you Mary for giving the hubby and I a weekend of fun without having to worry. You went above and beyond to make sure our bunch and our home was safe and taken care of. Look out for that re-booking, we are planning more trips. Now that we know who we can count on 🥰”

About: I have been pet sitting since my freshman year of college, and am now in my 30s. I am especially good with older dogs who need special care - even hand feeding or adjusting what they eat for their digestive systems to handle on a given day. Let me handle them and I'll make sure they know they're loved! When the alarm goes off at 5:30 every morning, I take our two labs downstairs to go outside, and then it's back up to the kitchen for breakfast. They spend the day with my husband, and then I take them outside before bed. They are my whole world! My biggest goal is to make sure I abide by your pet's routine and disrupt their schedule as little as possible. Our animals trust us, and I never take that trust for granted.

About: Being raised on a farm, I learned how to care every creature under the sun. I’ve raised beagles for better than 10 years now and currently have one beagle buddy named Nigel. We take walks every morning and before bed at night and have to have pretty strict rules since he's very smart and constantly wanting to follow his nose. I adjust my style to the breed and owner preferences so just let me know how you pet parent and I’ll make sure to follow the needed style. We can do play dates, but for the most part I would prefer to meet you where your pets live as they tend to do better that way. Straight forward communication gets the best pet care resulting in happy pups! Currently, booking all types for Hallsville area only. I will book the boarding option for Columbia area and can meet for pick up and drop off I have fenced back yard for running/playing. I treat your furbies like family and send videos so you know how they are doing. I want to make sure your pet gets something like a vacation while you're away

About: I have worked in professional pet care for 4 years and have been watching neighbors dogs for the past 2 years. At doggy daycare I have worked with all sizes and ages of dogs and am comfortable with all of them. I am currently and student at The University of Missouri but am still able to come to your house to watch your pet. I can stay at your house during the week or weekend, my classes are during the middle of the day so they can go out plenty of times in the morning and night. I have three dogs at home that I am very used to taking care of as well as my cat. I can follow your pets schedule so there is no difference in your care and mine.

“Adri did a great job watching our cat. They sent pictures and updates so we knew the cat was being taken care of dependably. I would be happy to hire Adri again in the future.”

About: I provide both cat and dog services. I understand what it's like to need that last minute assistance with making sure your pet friends are taken care of while you're out of town. I am more than happy to help you out! As a cat owner myself, I care for my cats daily. We have cuddles, playtime, outdoor time, feeding time, and chill time daily. I make sure to spend a bit of quality time (when they allow it) with each cat daily. For myself, I feed my cats a measured amount of food (some have a specific diet) twice daily. I administer any necessary meds, change litter boxes, clean up any cat messes (vomit/fecal mess), let the cats go outside for supervised wandering, and more. For clients, I will work with you to determine how best to tailor my services to your kitty's needs. I work full-time, so feeding times will be before and after I get off work.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life! I grew up with a mini dachshund and cared for him as he got older and became a senior pup. I’ve also cared for other senior dogs, and I have a special love for them, they deserve all the extra snuggles and attention. I also got a puppy when I was younger, so I know how to keep up with all that energy! With experience from puppyhood to senior care, I’m comfortable walking dogs, giving them plenty of love, and making sure they feel happy and safe. I recently moved to the area and I am looking for something to do. My schedule is pretty open and would love to fill it with pet care. When caring for a client's pet I always make sure to follow any rules the client has given me. I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and snuggles while also keeping up with their feeding schedule, potty breaks, and walks.

“Alicen is an extremely professional and knowledgeable dogsitter and caretaker. She took the time to get to know our dogs before her first visit. The day of, she excellent care of them. Our girls looked very happy in all the photos she sent! We really appreciate Alicen and highly recommend her.”

Brittany R.

“Ellie was amazing. She played with our energetic Border Collie so much and gave the cats lovies! Plus with every card, she attached multiple photos per visit. She gave meds, feedings, and everything was in order upon our return. Will rebook!”

About: I’ve been a relied upon neighborhood pet sitter for dogs, cats, chickens, and reptiles for at least 12 years. Ive also fostered “bottle baby” kittens on and off for my local humane society for 3 years. I have learned how to read the body language of and understand the needs of many species of pets, and I understand the importance of listening to human direction while working with pets. I am currently between jobs and about to engage in a short term Americorps VISTA position out of state between June and August. I often pick up local volunteer shifts at the Central MO Humane Society and at Columbia Center for Urban Agriculture, however my schedule is very flexible. I am very experienced in working within clients’ homes, whether it has been for pet sitting, house cleaning, or even entering homes to provide social services. Every home and homeowner is unique, and I pride myself in my ability to leave spaces at least as wonderful as I find them.

“Abigail will be our #1 animal caregiver going forward. With less than a week until our wedding, Knight (our 9-month old mini goldendoodle) developed a mild case of kennel cough. Since boarding was no longer an option, we hopped on Rover and found Abigail. She came over to meet Knight and the cats, and went above and beyond our expectations. Knight had frequent visits, lots of play sessions, and tons of attention while he was at home. Abigail administered medicine, and we came home to a happy and healthy puppy (all courtesy of Abigail). We recommend Abigail unconditionally and trust her in our home with our fur babies anytime.”

About: My family has had at least one cat my entire life, even as many as 7 at one time when my mom rescued a kitten litter from a busy street. At a young age I learned to both love animals and to treat them with care. In my dad’s home we had a great big dog raised from a puppy, and as a college student I especially miss being able to take a dog on a nice summer walk. I’m currently working part-time in the evenings most days of the week. My schedule varies from week to week but I am reliably available before 3pm daily. I make time to give my cats enrichment daily and play with them in a run to get those zoomies out. My cats are slightly fat from how I like to treat them, but I do not share human food. I would do the same for any pet sitting situation in addition to following the dietary guidelines if your pet needs to eat less treats. Additionally, I would be taking my own tax of pets and ear scratches if the client is willing.

“Kennedy was fantastic. Would definitely use her again!”

“Lana is always amazing with our dogs. She gives them so much love and attention while we were away. She even asked if we needed the garbage out and took our packages in. She made us feel so at ease while on vacation”

About: Hi, my name is Becca. I live with four dogs, two Yorkies(Cocoa and Buddy), a Pit mix and a Beagle (Doobie and Maribel)! I love to play in the backyard with them and take them on walks. I think that it’s important to show dogs you care about them, by spending time with them. I enjoy long walks especially with dogs, it’s more fun when you have a furry friend with you! I look forward to getting to know your dog and learning more about their personality. Don’t hesitate to tell me if your dog has special needs or requirements. My schedule is somewhat flexible. I am currently in paramedic school. My classes are mostly in the mornings, but my schedule is pretty flexible during the afternoons on week days. I have a fenced-in yard, and all dogs have plenty of toys to play with! I often run around in the backyard with them to help get some of their energy out!

About: I have several years of hands-on pet care experience from family and friends with dogs and cats. I’ve provided daily walks, multiple feedings, grooming, and basic training for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable with senior pets and those requiring medication, and I’ve also cared for anxious or high-energy dogs with patience and consistency. In addition, I’ve done overnight stays, ensuring pets maintain their routine in a stress-free environment. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own, always focused on their comfort, safety, and happiness. I work from home during normal business hours with leniency in needing to step away during the day. Also willing to work from the pets home if WiFi is available! I tend to stay pretty flexible. Either way, they’ll be treated like my own pet which is very heavy on the cuddles, kisses and treats. My pup, Roxie, loves being outside- so if your dog loves it outside also then that’s where we’ll be! If they like to be a couch potato, that’s my spirit animal and I’ll make sure they’re all comfy and well veg it out together! Currently in my home there are 2 other pups also that are very friendly and 2 other people that also love animals! I do not have the set up for cats, as I don’t currently have my own but have had cats in the past and can also care for them. Familiar with litter boxes and giving medication to cats, also.

About: I’m a HUGE animal lover and have experience taking care of all sorts of animals, from dogs, to cats, spiders, bunnies, frogs, and more! I have six cats of my own and foster medically fragile/behaviorally challenged cats from the Humane Society. It brings me so much joy when I see a cat truly start to thrive again. Because of how long I’ve been caring for animals, I’m experienced in providing a wide variety of care. Your puppy is still crate training? I can help! Your senior four-legged friend needs medication? I can do it! Your socially awkward pet doesn’t like people? That’s okay! You have an animal that most people don’t know how to care for? I guarantee you that I do. Working with animals is such a fulfilling part of my life and that’s why I’ve been doing it so long! I work an incredibly flexible job, allowing me to spend quality time with your pets while you’re away. I work with my clients and around their schedules, making pet care as stress-free as possible! I usually care for pets in my client’s home, as my home is a bit of a zoo. I work hard to ensure we have trust and boundaries established so we both feel comfortable! One of the ways I do that is by doing a meet n greet beforehand. I love to get to know the pet parents and meet the pets before I start sitting.

About: I graduated from Animal Sciences in MU, with PhD degree. More importantly, I am an animal lover, with patience and calm personality who can take good care of your pets I am currently working part time, so I have flexible schedules, and I do have a valid driver’s license and a car. No limitations for transportation I will be fully following my client’s requirement with also my personal observations and judgement to give pets the best service. Safe, loving, and caring

“Kaylea and genuinely fantastic. She provides great updates and so many cute pictures. She gives me cat play time or cuddles, depending on what he wants. She goes above and beyond with incredible care, communication, and professionalism. Everyone should book with her.”

“Always stayed in touch and showed up when supposed to. Was very interactive with the dogs and they seemed to like her a lot.”
