“Trusted Pet Care, When You Need It

What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience and genuine love for animals. I am a retired Quarter Horse and dog rancher with over 54 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. Throughout my life, animals have never just been a job—they’ve been my passion, my pride, and my joy. I service BRANSON MO, TABLE ROCK AREA, I am Close to INDIAN POINT, SILVER DOLLAR CITY, AND THE CHATEAU OF THE LAKES HOTEL & RESORTS, 15 MINUTES TO THE ENTERTAINMENT. I live in a private gated and safe community. In addition to running a ranch, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant, which gives me a deeper understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. I’m comfortable recognizing signs of stress or illness and responding appropriately. I treat every animal in my care like family. Whether it’s a quick visit or an extended stay, your pets will be cared for with the same attention, patience, and love I’ve given my own animals for decades. Their comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. With my background, you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in experienced, capable, and truly caring hands.

We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Kelly. She and her son are great with animals and took good care of him. We would definitely book with her again.

Never used Rover, but we had last minute vacation plans. Service was great. Nice clean home and back yard. Great communication.

Kelly was amazing with my super anxious Great Dane when we were passing through Branson and wanted to spend the day at Silver Dollar City!! She took great care of him and even got him to use the doggy door! I would definitely send Bandito again if we ever pass through Branson again!

Dear Kelly, Thank you for taking care of Chloe during our visit to Branson, MO. You took great care in knowing what she needed. The best part you let her snuggle with you which she needed being away from us.

We are so thankful to have found Kelly! 🐶❤️ She took care of our puppy with so much love, care, and affection, just like family. We felt completely at peace knowing our little one was in such good hands. Kelly is kind, patient, trustworthy, and truly loves animals. Thank you, Kelly, for taking such wonderful care of our puppy — we really appreciate you! 😊

Kelly was great. She was able to sit for Benjamin on short notice and her husband Glen was great. Benjamin had a good time.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work during the day, but I dedicate my evenings and weekends to pet sitting, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, consistency, and care during those times. My schedule works especially well for pet owners who need reliable evening check-ins, overnight care, or weekend coverage. I make sure each visit is unhurried so your pets receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, so even with my daytime responsibilities, I prioritize making time to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in their home by keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm and safe. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, medications, and daily habits. With my background as a rancher and former veterinary assistant, I pay close attention to behavior and safety. I also treat every home with respect—keeping it clean, secure, and just as I found it. I provide updates so owners feel at ease, and I treat every pet like my own—with patience, care, and love.
