“Jennifer was great with Merle! She was available right away when I found out I needed a dog walker and responded within minutes. She was literally there within an hour. I really appreciate her being accommodating and taking my furbaby for a walk on such short notice. He had a great time and she sent me cute pictures of him on campus :)”

About: I am not afraid to give medications, I walk as long as the client desires, I don't cut corners with the care I offer. I make my clients' schedules my priority. Pet-sitting is a full-time passion for me. My schedule is basically open. Filling my time with pet- and house- care also fills my heart. This is what I love, helping people and the animals in their lives. I get all the vet and emergency info when I first meet the client. I ask about plant care, mail retrieval, the pets' typical schedule, and locations of important and necessary items for the animals' care. I take care of things the way I would want my own house and pets taken care of.

About: I grew up on a farm where our pets were always family members and treated with love and respect. I have two rescue dogs myself. I am happy to keep my dogs separated from clients. I am fortunate that my parents have a farm and welcome their grand pups in case of overlaps in sittings. My girls do great with most other pets, however I understand every animal has their own personality and comfort zone. I respect and do things on the owner and the pet’s terms. I strive to provide an experience where you feel you are leaving your loved ones with people who care as much as you. I worked the corporate world since college and decided I would take a break and enjoy a summer with my own fur babies. I have always been the go-to dog sitter for close friends and family. I quickly received more requests by word of mouth with my flexible schedule this summer. I am currently working on starting my own company for pet products making my schedule open and flexible! I live in Boonville, MO. I attend regularly conservation areas, dog parks, and my parents wooded farm outside of Glasgow, MO. My home is an apartment. I have an outdoor deck with stairs that access a private fenced in area that is pet safe. My home is equipped with a dog door for my own pups to use at their leisure along with security cameras. Plus I am only a block from Katy Trail access!

“Truly the sweetest! She was our boys first walker and we were so happy with her! He loved her! Photos and updates! Will definitely be using Bree again! ☺️”


Danielle W.
“Elle is very passionate about animals. Not only is she knowledgeable but she takes her job very seriously. I've personally seen her pivot if a dog needs different attention than most. She has taken care of multiple types of animals and takes direction well. If your animal has special needs, she will accommodate. Big or small, she cares for them all.”


Michelle W.
“Michelle is an amazing dog mom herself, and general animal lover! She has always formed great relationships with all of my pets over the years, which has now been 3 dogs and 1 cat. When I need someone to watch my babies, she's the person I want. She's going to love them and center the day around them and make sure they have everything they need. If there's an emergency, I know Michelle can handle it. Both my dog and cat have separation anxiety and behavioral issues related to that. When she watched my pets recently, she took such high quality care of them and my house. My dog was calm and happy from all the attention and running she had him doing, my cat was happy and at peace, and my house was super clean. They obviously felt really cared for and safe, because they acted like it was no big deal when I came home a week later (versus the usual velcro dog/cat I have on my hands). And I felt calm and at peace too because she communicates really well, sends lots of pictures, and everything was in such good shape when I returned. She made everything easy on me. Love Michelle and hope she can always watch my pets when I'm away!”


Michelle G.

“Michelle was so kind and provided several photos & videos of our pup during the drop in/walk. Would recommend her a 1000%!”


Alice T.

She gives them plenty of loving attention too, playing fetch with the dogs and making sure our cat gets lots of head scratches and lap time. The animals love Sophia and run to the door whenever she arrives. She's our first choice when we need a pet sitter.”
