They sent us updated & photos daily which was terrific as our last trip was a week & we missed him so 🩵 It is so very comforting knowing that they are home all day & he gets lots of love & play with their dogs. Will definitely will continue to use this wonderful family in the future!”

About: I have raised dogs since as long as I can remember. I truly love having them around and making sure they have the absolute best stay with me. I personally know how frightening it can be to leave your pets with people you barely know, so I can assure you they will be in great hands. Thank you for reading through my profile and considering me to take care of your fur babies! I am a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to take care of pets full time. I am here 24/7! We typically do walks around my neighborhood at lunch time, then food and a treat. the rest of the time is usually just all playtime! I have a fur baby and he is the absolute most sweet playful baby ever! He likes to chill around most of the day but he does love to run around outside and inside with everyone. We have enough space for pets to roam around and outdoor space!

“Daine & Ashley went above and beyond when they had my 11 month old pup! I got picture updates frequently and he had a blast playing in their yard and with their two adorable dogs!! Thank you SO much!! I would recommend 100%!!”


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.

“Tiffany and her husband did great with my dog!! He’s a bit of a handful and is pretty nervous around other dogs and they handled him very well and recognized when he needed breaks.”


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!

“Nicole and her husband we GREAT!! Our dogs loved being there! They sent pictures daily, updated us on how they were doing and were so kind at our meetup. We will for sure use them in the future!”


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!

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.
