“What a relief to have found someone who will love our Campbell as much as we do! Karen was easy to get ahold of and communicate with. She sent me pictures and updates the whole time we were gone. Campbell made a 4 legged friend and also some more people to as to her list of favorites. Will definitely book again!”

“This family is really interested in making you and your fur baby completely happy and at ease! Sarah is teaching her boys responsibilities and the boys are all to happy to be of service and are very proactive as a family in this adventure! I LOVE this family and am so happy to have the blessing of meeting them to care for my dog!”

“Kimberly was great! It was my first time using this app and leaving my dog in the care of a stranger. But my pup was right at home as soon as she arrived. Kimberly sent the cutest photos and updates. I knew my pup was in good hands. And when I went to pick up my pup, she was excited to see me but went back inside like she was totally down with not leaving.”


“Carrie was kind, concerned for the welfare of my pups, very encouraging and reassured me that she was making them a priority. They were happy and the terms of our Boarding worked out perfectly! I would recommend her to anybody in the Springfield area!!”

“It was comforting to know that Pepper was in a comfortable space, room to run outside, with plenty of people and pup friends to keep him occupied while we were on vacation! Kyle and Lyndzie sent lots of updates throughout the week too! Gave us peace of mind and we would definitely book with them again!”

“Kari is a rare find!!! I am new to the area and have used Kari a few times. Her and her husband are very kind and great to my dogs. My dogs used to come home from being boarded at a facility and sleep for days from being so stressed. I pick them up from Kari’s and they are ready to play!?!! Highly recommend ❤️❤️”

“Shannon picked up and dropped off Buddy (as I cannot drive). She sent a few notes letting me know he was adjusting and eating well. She assured me he was "a Good Boy" while he was on vacation!”

About: Ive been a home based professional pet grooming in the Springfield/Riverton area for over 30 years, I offer enrichment based services and continue my education thru online classes and in person seminars to stay up to date on the latest health and wellness issues.I am licensed thru Dept of agriculture, an IBPSA member, PACCC animal care provider, Fear free certified, first aid/CPR certified, Hero for healthy pets certified, a member of NDGAA, NCGI and working on becoming an AKC good citizen dog trainer. Im expanding my enrichment based dog grooming business to boarding and daycare. I am currently home based working several days a week as a pet groomer, and we also have farm animals and 5 dogs and 2 cats in our home. All dogs are double leashed and fitted with an air tag when going outside for potty breaks and play time. I do not let dogs outside unleashed or unsupervised. We have a country type environment and do nature walks as well as many mental stimulus type activities
About: I have experience fostering dogs with the animal shelter APL and have a small toy poodle of my own. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play. I love dogs and would love to have the opportunity to watch dogs and take care of others! I am open to watching dogs for a couple hours, a day, or even a couple of days if that is what is needed. My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of. I’m currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I am available early mornings or early afternoons to give your animal a break during the workday! I am also available any time on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have a toy poodle and a golden retriever. I can also do drops in to walk or play with your dog as well!
“Sierra was able to accommodate boy of my sweet pups last minute. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures during their 4 night stay with her. I’d send my boys back to her anytime! Definitely recommend”

“She was wonderful with Radar! Had no problems, walks went well, even got pictures of his stay. She kept us up to date on how he was doing on his stay. We did not have worry one bit. We are definitely using her again for future stays for Radar. Highly recommend her!”
