Dog Boarding in McDowell, MO

“Highly recommend booking with Dylan. My dog seemed to have a great time and he gave multiple updates every day. I will be re-booking with him!”

“Jennifer & Aaron (and their son) have gone above and beyond to keep my pootch safe and happy. Almost every day, during a ten day overnight stay they have sent pictures and notes to reassure me Poppy is not only safe, but feeling loved. Jennifer & Aaron are thoughtful, trustworthy and great communicators. Highly recommended if you are looking for a home away from home for your pet!”

“This was only the second time we’ve left our dogs and it was their very first time staying away from home. Ashley made me comfortable from the first contact and her husband made us feel comfortable when we dropped our dogs off. The morning following our first night away, Ashley sent sweet pics of our babies which made us feel so good. We highly recommend. Very reasonable, very kind, very easy to work with.”

“Mickayla is awesome! I knew from the time we met that we are in good hands! This was the first time I have left her with someone, I could not be more pleased! I loved the pictures she took and told me about Gracie’s day. I can tell she loves animals, and I am so thankful and will definitely pick her when I need someone to care for my pup.”

About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs, cats, and horses from a young age. I also have experience in dog grooming, ranging from small to large dogs. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I am flexible as I work from home. I normally check pets at least two times a day, but more check in times are available upon request. I have a friendly dog who loves to play and make new friends. He will be very helpful in helping young dogs learn how to socialize.

“We ended up spending the summer on Springfield, MO on short notice and our two pups stayed with Cynthia 3 times this summer. We’ve got a Golden and a little mix and they both had a great time. Spoiled and pampered and snuggled up with Cynthia and her daughter. I highly recommend Cynthia of you need a sitter!’”

“We went on a family trip with our extended family and had to board our dogs for the first time. After lots of research and reading MANY reviews we settled on boarding with Autumn thanks to the many repeat customers she has had detailing their positive experience with her. We received updates and pictures while we were away and it helped ease our anxiety. Overall our dogs made friends and were well taken care of❤️”

“Courtney was wonderful with Meeko! He came back so tired, which means he had a blast. She was vey flexible with pick up time when we were stuck in the mountains due to the snow.”

“Ashley took great care of my two dogs at her kennel. The only thing I would mention is that I had assumed she was watching them at her house when I booked her, but it was really where she is a groomer, so the dogs were kept in a kennel except during play & potty breaks. There were several other animals there. You could tell Ashley loves animals & they did great in her care.”

About: I have grown up around animals my entire 30 years. We have always had dogs and a cat or two. I love to take walks with them and let them explore. I will spoil them like they are my own! I work full time during the week. I am available after 3pm on weekdays and full-time on the weekends. I have some weeks coming up that I will be available for the entire week. I do not have a fenced yard but I have two very friendly golden retrievers who love to play, go on walks, and explore in the yard.

About: I have loved dogs since childhood and over the last 11 years I have fostered and adopted senior dogs to give them a forever home. I’m currently home full-time, so your dog will have my full attention, company, and care around the clock. Whether it’s belly rubs, gentle walks, or just relaxing together, I make sure each dog feels at home. I have a secure, pet-friendly home with plenty of space and a calm environment—perfect for seniors, anxious pups, or dogs that just need some extra TLC. I have a big fenced yard with a doggy door so they can come and go as they please. I just lost my senior boxer, Taylor, so it’s just me and my big rescue, Hank, a hound mix. I’ve cared for countless dogs in this home, including special need seniors.

About: I have taken care of animals all my life. My own dog was medically complicated so my experience with recognizing potential concerns is heightened! I care deeply for animals and have been known to go to great lengths to ensure animals welfare. I understand that animals are FAMILY!🐾❤️ I work in outside sales so my days are pretty fluid. I’m able to make my schedule as flexible as it needs to be. I am able to take pets on car rides if that’s something they enjoy. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of bunnies and birds to chase along with a doggy pool plenty of toys and I have a big shop we can hang out in the air conditioning or lounge on the couch. If I am caring for a pet at a clients house. I am respectful of boundaries and take instructions very seriously.

“Cierra and her family were amazing to my super timid/anxious dog Mags. Mags got to enjoy the farm life while I was gone for 6days. I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing my dog was well taken care of. Cierra is everything you’re looking for! THANK YOU ❤️”

About: I am local foster through a local rescue. My husband and I both have a passion for dogs and will treat your fur babies like they are our own! We have experience caring for puppies as young as 8 week and seniors. We are comfortable administering medications if needed and are familiar with pups who may have seizures. We don’t have any stairs so there is no need to worry about a senior pup who might have hip issues needing to climb stairs. I work full time and my husband works full time as well. Our schedules are staggered so your pup would be let out first thing in the morning by myself and then my husband will resume until he leaves for work. Midday we have a family member come over and let the dogs go outside and allow them to eat and drink as well as have some time to play. They are never left alone for more than 4-6 hours at a time. The days I’m off I’m home and my husband works from home 2 days a week as well. We have had this routine for over 4 years now with our own personal dogs and there has never been any issues. We had a brand new privacy fence installed on July 12th! We have a half acre back yard so dogs will have plenty of room to run! We will do our best to accommodate any special requests you may have. Please note our home was recently built so our grass is still in the process of growing. There may be days your pet becomes muddy if conditions are rainy. I am happy to provide a bath for your pet for a small additional fee upon request. I also highly recommend doing a meet and greet prior to your stay to ensure your dog will be comfortable with my pets and around the house.

About: I have taken care of dogs for over 15 years. I have mainly taken care of smaller dogs usually under 15lbs. I do kennel dogs overnight. I do part-time tutoring, but I am at home majority of the time. Dogs will have access to fenced yard via doggy door while I am home and will need to be kenneled when I am not. I have a fenced yard. We have 3 small dogs and 1 cat. Our dogs are definitely barkers, but are sweet. Cat is indoor-outdoor cat and gets along great with dogs.

About: I've been taking care of my families and friends pets since i was 12 and I've loved every minute of it thats why I'm here It works perfectly fine because I'm currently enrolled in 15 hours of classes which only takes a little bit of my time away from home. I take care of the pets by constantly providing them with attention whether that be taking them out to walk, playing with toys, or teaching them new tricks. I also make sure that I'm teaching the dogs what is right and whats wrong and try to give them the best care I can while they are under my supervision.
