“They took care of my dog for a week and I definitely recommend them they are good people. They made my dog feel at home and made me feel at ease knowing she was in good hands.”


“Such a wonderful sitter and was able to help out with many last minute changes! I’d recommend her to anyone who’s looking to ensure your animal is in a safe home with someone who loves and cares for animals from their heart:)”



“This is our dogs 3rd stay with Catherine. I have only felt comfortable leaving them with family before I met Catherine. She is truly an animal lover and you can enjoy your time away from them without worry. Our terrier mix has always been skittish with people and after his 1st stay with her ran right up to her door ahead of us. I highly recommend her to anyone so you can enjoy a stress free vacation.”


“Ross and his wife are wonderful. We have a Frenchie that has some medical issues and we felt 100% confident that we left him in good hands. They sent pics while we were gone to give us peace of mind and our Webster was clearly happy and felt right at home when we picked him up. 100% will be using Ross again and recommend him to everyone”


“Daine and Ashley are a blessing for me and my dog beauty, I can never say enough about how grateful I am to have found them…Anyone looking for an Awesome family oriented dog loving home, this is definitely the place. 😇🙏❤️”


About: I have been working with animals since I was a child in 4H. I am good with animals of all kinds. I have worked in a variety of fields since I was a teen. I have been in a vets office, Shift lead of a boarding facility, Animal control, and I have trained dogs and service dogs for years. I care about the animal connection and making sure animals are well cared for. They I only work part time 3-5 hours 3 days a week. The rest of the time I am either training my dogs or spending time with my kids. I’m passionate about working with animals and my life primarily circles around my animals. I believe in making sure animals get the care they deserve and having fun enjoyable time. I want to see dogs light up when they see me. I love spending the evening relaxing lets the dogs play and reading a book or playing a video game. I enjoy hikes in our field and teaching swimming in our pool for dogs weather permitting. I believe in doing an intake of can on arrival and documentation on food and outtings so I can monitor what is happening with the dogs.

“Nicole & Gary were wonderful!!!! Our pets hadn't been boarded in several years and are now seniors. We wanted them to be boarded together. Nicole went out of her way to alleviate our pets anxiousness. She sent pics several times per day and kept us updated with anything out of the ordinary. I would recommend them highly, especially if you are unsure about leaving your animals. We will definitely book with them in the future if we need to.”


About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager because I love it so much. I have also trained more dogs than I can count. I will keep your pups safe and make sure they feel well loved in your absence! We will make them part of our family! We have recently lost our dog and would be grateful for the opportunity to love on yours. Please message me if you have any questions and have a great day! My current schedule is very fluid so I have time to work around your dog schedule & any needs they may have. My whole family will be so happy to have your dog with us or just visit or take walks & play. Finding someone not just reliable but who I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with was a huge struggle for me and now I’m happy to be that person for other people!! I have been a dog person my whole life & they are such special members of our families. Thanks for checking out my profile & I hope to meet you soon! Being reliable is important -knowing your pets are not just safe but well loved while you travel brings another level of peace of mind. I found that very hard to find for ours so just know I will care for them like they’re my own! I’d love for them to come be part of our family during your travels or stop in & take care of them in their own environment if that is what’s best for them-I will treat your home with the utmost respect. I can also stop in to play & potty while you’re at work to make sure they’re taken care of. Thanks!

About: We’re a pet-loving home with 3 cats and 2 sweet senior dogs—all friendly, spayed/neutered, and great with guests! Your pet will feel right at home with plenty of love, snuggles, and playtime. I am available everyday, if I am boarding in my home I am available to come and go a lot. If boarding in your home I am available to stop by multiple times during the day/night. I have a fenced yard & two senior dogs who enjoy company. They’re still young at heart! 3 cats who are very social and enjoy new faces.

“I’ve never left my 11 year old yorkie with anyone who wasn’t family or a roommate, so I was super nervous about his stress level. Jacey was out of town for most of his stay but Garrett really accommodated my dog and made him feel super at ease. Garrett was super communicative and sent some of the funniest pictures of my dog I’ve ever seen. He had a blast, 100% would recommend!”


About: I have two years of veterinary assistant experience as well as the experience of owning my own pets. I have assisted in pre-and post operative care as well as recovery. I also have experience with day to day activities such as administering medications, sublax injections, feeding schedules, and exercise. I am currently self employed and I own 6 pets! My schedule is VERY flexible and allows for adequate animal care required for walks or boarding! Providing a safe and reliable environment is my baseline for working with your furbabies. Pets are family and I understand the love and compassion we have for our furry friends. For boarding, we have a doggie door that leads to a fenced in backyard. We manually feed twice a day with Purina Pro. If you would like different food, please provide. Feeding schedules for boarding is able to be altered according to your dog’s needs. We do have a XL dog crate as well if you want them crated at night or when I am not home. I am home majority of the day and only leave for errands. However, our dogs do not need to be crated and cats have access to the doggie door 100% of the time and they sleep with us so if you allow that, they will be free rein indoors at night! I do take my dogs on walks daily so if you would like your dogs to also go on daily walks while being boarded, just let me know—no extra charge since I’m already walking my babies! Meet and Greets for Boarding will be conducted at my house so you can see where your doggie will be staying! For Pet Sitting, I find it best to work around your specific situations and needs! We can discuss at meet and greet on rules for household and feeding schedules, any allergies, etc. Meet and Greets for pet sitting are conducted at your place of residence to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for meeting your furbabies. It also allows you to show me where you store food, toys, treats, etc.

“Sarah had great communication. We received multiple pictures and updates during our week long trip. Our dogs also seemed to have a great time with her! Would definitely use her again!”


About: I’ve owned 3 dogs over the years. My oldest dog is 14 years old and has some health issues so I am very familiar with all the healthcare requirements. We recently got a puppy as well so I’m very familiar with young pups as well! I currently work from home so I’m very flexible in being able to do daily walks, overnight stays, and daily check ins. I regularly go for walks with my dog and would love to add to my routine! My oldest dog is a grumpy old man so he’s pretty easy to work with. I love to spoil my dogs with treats but enjoy taking them out for walks and making sure they get their daily exercise too. I’m a huge animal lover!

About: Residing on a farm with open running space or enclosed electrical fencing for outside time, animals are sure to love their farm life experience. My husband and I have trained our own dogs to respond to basic commands: sit, shake, stay, come, and no. We have around 600 birds (chickens, guineas, ducks), 10 goats, and 2 Great Pyrenees girls (unaltered) that predominately reside outside. We also have 5 cats that are indoor outdoor and every other week our 16 and 10 y.o. boys are here to provide extra attention to animals visiting. We have also cared for animals at the end of life phase, moving at a slower pace and needing that extra assistance to get around. I currently work an 8 hour shift commuting to STL Monday-Friday. I work for the MO Army National Guard full-time, to include one weekend a month. My Husband’s full time job is taking care of the farm. He is predominately on farm, or not too far out if he is away. Caring for additional animals will fit like a glove into the animal schedule we currently operate on any given day. Caring for our own pets consist of daily feedings. There is always dry food out for all animals. The dogs and cats get wet food once a day, typically in the evening. The cats get attention when they want it. The dogs get released out of the fence a couple times a week to run the land under human supervision. They will also be let inside for short periods of time as we work on training them with inside manners, not to mention, one of the girls is terrified of thunder storms. Our animals are pampered with treats, attention, and full on conversations. They are more than animals around here, they’re family!

“Ruger had a hard time adjusting the first day. Luckily Tiffany and her family showered him with love and made him feel right at home for the rest of the stay. So grateful to have someone take such good care of our pup while we were out of town.”


About: I've always been an animal lover for as long as I could remember! I’ve worked in various animal clinics and emergency centers. I am taking a step back from working full time. I am working part time in order to transport my children to school. I am always open on weekends, my availability is also very flexible during the week! We recently moved and bought land! So my 3 dogs have lots of room to run around whenever they want. There tails are always wagging and thats all the matters to me.
