Dog Boarding in Leadington, MO

“My dogs had a great time staying with Shari P. We received regular updates. They got to go on two walks every day - their favorite - and got along so well with Shari’s dog, Meg. Shari is a kind and caring dog lover and goes above and beyond to make sure our pets are happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend her!”

“We couldn’t have been happier with Ryn as our dog sitter over the holidays! Finding someone who truly understands and can handle dogs with behavioral challenges is no easy task, but Ryn completely exceeded our expectations. Two of our dogs have big feelings—one is fear reactive, and the other struggles with anxiety—and Ryn managed their unique needs with so much patience, care, and skill. She even made real progress with one of our more challenging pups, which was such a huge milestone for us. Ryn’s extensive experience as a dog trainer really stands out. She took the time to learn about each of our dogs before their stay, asking thoughtful questions and ensuring she was prepared to meet their needs. Her setup is perfect, with a big, secure fenced yard and an environment designed for both enrichment and safety. It’s clear she puts so much thought into creating a space where dogs can thrive. One of the things we appreciated most was how Ryn included her own dogs in a way that felt safe and comfortable for everyone. She has an incredible ability to read dog behavior and ensure all interactions are positive. Whether it was playtime, downtime, or moments when our dogs just needed a little extra reassurance, Ryn handled everything with ease and professionalism. Throughout the stay, Ryn kept us updated with regular, thoughtful communication. Her updates included how our dogs were feeling emotionally, what they were eating, and even little stories about their day. The photos she sent showed just how happy and relaxed our pups were, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. What truly sets Ryn apart is her genuine love for dogs and her ability to connect with them on an individual level. She doesn’t just care for dogs—she truly understands them. Her ability to build trust and confidence, even with dogs who struggle with fear and anxiety, is remarkable. We came home to happy, groomed, relaxed pups who were clearly given so much attention, playtime, and love. It’s everything you could hope for as a dog parent. Ryn went above and beyond to make sure they felt safe and happy the entire time. If you’re looking for someone who is not only amazing with dogs but also truly gets them, Ryn is the absolute best. Whether your dog has special behavioral needs or just deserves the best care possible, we can’t recommend her enough for training or sitting. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Through my years of pet care, I’ve learned that every critter has their own way of needing to be cared for and loved. I enjoy focusing on outdoor exercise and exploration. It’s a fun way to wear everyone out and meet all the needs for nap time. I currently work a full time remote job, so my schedule is very flexible. Boarding is easy to fit in to my daily schedule. In-house visits can be scheduled easily throughout the day. Let me know your situation and we can see what’s possible! I live on some land that allows for wide open ranging with safe boundaries from any roadway or neighborhood. I have a friendly dog myself, Roo (m/neutered), who gets along well with anyone who likes fetch as much as him. He is off leash with me on site everyday and tends to keep everyone within the established safe zones. However you need routine to look, I’m happy to accommodate.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since age 5. My friend's neighbors and family have all trusted me to care for their animals. Including feeding, bathing, & walking. Rover is my fulltime job, I am available Monday through Friday daytime 11:00am-4:00pm & some Sundays in the areas of Ste Genevieve, Perryville, Festus, Bloomsdale,and Farmington. I am open to do day visits and dog walks. Please let me know the Sunday before for the week what you need! This leaves plenty of time for puppy loving! ❤️ I currently have a very gentle loving puppy who loves to play indoors & outdoors. So in my home your dog will have some company 😀 I do not have a fenced in yard which is a challenge so we go on walks in the neighborhood & have a nearby park we enjoy going to so no worries! We have lots of fun and exercise! We play games outside and inside.

About: Hi! I worked at an animal shelter when I was 21 until I was 30. My husband and I have fostered 30+ dogs and cats, caring for them day to day while waiting for them to find their forever homes. We have 3 dogs and 3 cats of our own. 4 of them being seniors/entering their senior years, we understand the extra care the oldies need! I’m currently a stay at home mom, so besides short trips to and from school, I’m home almost all day! I’m maybe gone 15-20 minutes twice a day. :) I do crate pets when I leave for short trips and overnight. I also only will do pet groups by size, meaning little dogs with only little dogs. We have a big fenced back yard for dogs to take potty breaks or play.

“Taryn took great care of our girl. She booked last minute and responded very quickly. Will definitely use her again in the future”

“Ashley did an incredible job with my Sophie. She sent TONS of pictures and always kept me up to date with everything. Between her updates and pictures she really made me feel comfortable being away from her. I could not have asked for more!!! I will be using her again and again!!”

About: Hi! My name is Ryley C.! I have been walking and watching dogs since I was probably 10 years old. I have worked at animal shelters and helped manage a doggy daycare.

About: I have had pets all my life. Cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, hampsters.. the list goes on. I was in Human healthcare and found its not much different. I can help with your pet care needs. My work schedule can be flexible so I can adjust it to fit most pet needs so you can plan that vacation free from worry. I have a fenced in area and a designated space in my house I call the “pet room” . My house resembles someone who has a 2 yr old but instead of kid toys and beds it’s dog and cat toys.

About: I’ve had animals all my life. love my bull terriers and my cat nephews. All animals are precious and I love taking care of them. I currently work full time from 7-3pm Monday through Friday. I can care for pets after work and in some cases before work if it is needed. I currently have one dog named mages. He is crate trained and house trained. My HOA does not allow fences so dogs are taken out on a leash .

About: I am a Firefighter/Paramedic that has had dogs my entire life, all sizes and types. Let me care for your pet like they are my own. I can accommodate all request. Just ask away. I work 48 hour shifts and off 4 days. It averages out to only working 10 days a month. It leaves a lot of flexibility to have some amazing pets in my life. I have just lost my two amazing Rotties. When your pet is in my home they will be the only pet. If your baby is more comfortable at their home I came accommodate that request also.

About: Your pet will actually go outside with walks at the park or play time in the backyard instead of being with a sitter that's keeping them inside sleeping all day. I do independent work such as Uber or sell plasma + when requested so I have full-time availability. I can always do my other work when pets don't need someone to watch. Backyard is not fenced but large and a park is nearby. As long as the dogs are not heavy (that's why I don't dogsit "giant" dogs) then they will still get outside time. If the pets only need to be inside, the house is clean and with cameras for safety.
