“My girls have enjoyed having Jodi drop in during the day. I work long hours and they really benefit from her visits. Bayleigh is high energy and Jodi plays her favorite games with her. The other 2 are enjoying getting out for a while and getting snuggles. Jodi is always prompt and locks up carefully when she leaves.”


“Sydney did really great taking care of our anxious dog and spending the time to make him comfortable! They were great with the updates and the pictures.”


“Katelyn did an amazing job and took care of things that I didn't even ask her to do. Sent updates and pictures of my kitties. They seemed very comfortable with her which is amazing since they are typically scared of strangers. Will definitely use her again the next time we are out of town 🥰”


About: I worked as a lead kennel attendant for nearly three years before moving to Springfield, and I can tell you there is a huge difference between boarding with a family rather than a facility. Now don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved my job taking care of other people's pets, but I always wished there was something more I could do to comfort pets who were stressed or overworked by all the commotion. The large volume of pets and and tight schedules often left minimal to no time for cuddles, and only a couple potty breaks a day. This structure often separated families, especially those with cats and dogs, as they were kept in different buildings. By boarding in my own home, I am striving to provide a calm environment where your pets can be able to relax and feel comfortable. Unlike typical boarding facilities that are only open for 12 hours, your pet will be able to have someone there with them 24/7 to comfort and monitor them. Families of pets will also be able to be kept together, and roam the house as they normally would at home. I would be more than happy to welcome your pets into my home, so you can leave them knowing they are in good hands. Photo, video, and text updates can be requested at any time during the day to keep you updated on how your pet is doing. I also offer free optional baths at the end of their stay to wash any dirt from their adventures away! I would love to be your pets home away from home and spoil them with attention, play, and cuddles while you are away. ❤️ I do pet care along side my other businesses at home. I will sometimes go out to DoorDash around lunch and dinner time for just a couple hours at a time. Otherwise I will be at the house. I try to follow the owners regular routine to the best of my ability. If you have specific feeding, walk, kennel times, or other routines you would like to keep in place please let me know! Otherwise I work with your pet, offering potty breaks whenever needed, two feedings a day, large walks 1-2 times a day, unlimited water, and bed time the same as however you would do it at home. All walks must be leashed as I do not have a fenced in yard. The neighborhood has large open streets and side walks, with a large park only a 5 minute walk away.

“Paige was great! Sent lots of pictures, kept in communication while we were gone, and our dogs were calm and seemed to be very content when we got back from vacation. We will definitely use Paige again!”


“Jasmine is amazing!! This is the first time we have left our dog at home when we went on vacation and Jasmine made it stress free! I can’t recommend her enough. She is a dog person and not only that she will make sure your home is locked and safe while you are away. If you are looking for your new dog sitter, look no further, she is absolutely amazing!”


“Lisa was great! It was obvious our pup loved her visits by the happy and active pictures Lisa took. She was very conscientious and treated our pets like they were her own. I highly recommend Lisa!”


“Maria was SO amazing. She was incredibly attentive and went above and beyond. She took plenty of pictures and was very communicative ! I will now only book with her.”


About: I have had the privilege of growing up with dogs throughout my life, sharing my childhood with seven beloved furry companions. Currently, my husband and I are the proud parents to a two-year-old Rottweiler named Clover and a six-year-old Rottweiler Elza, who are loving, energetic, and intelligent dogs. Over the years, I have gained extensive experience caring for dogs, not only as a pet owner but also by looking after the dogs of our extended families and friends, including watching, house-sitting, and taking dogs on walks when needed. With a deep understanding of dog behavior and a genuine passion for their well-being, I am excited to offer my services to care for your fur babies. I look forward to meeting your pets and providing them with the love and attention they deserve while you're away! Pet care is a seamless part of my daily routine. I work from home and manage a few side projects and hobbies, which allows me the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, a walk around the neighborhood, or just keeping them company while I work, I’m able to stay present and responsive to their needs. I’m also flexible during the day for drop-in visits, making it easy to provide care on a schedule that works best for you and your pet. In our home, we offer both crates and a fenced-in backyard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for your pet—whether they prefer being indoors or outside. We have two friendly dogs of our own: Clover, a playful two-year-old, and Elza, a gentle six-year-old. They both love the company of other dogs and are always excited to meet new friends. At night, Clover and Elza like to stay out and cuddle, so if your dog enjoys cozy companionship, they’ll feel right at home. That said, if your pup prefers the comfort of a crate, we’re more than happy to make sure they’re settled in and sleeping peacefully.

“Mickayla regularly watches my high-energy corgi while I’m out of town. She is flexible, a great communicator, and so kind. She sends plenty of photos and updates to keep me in the loop. I always feel comfortable leaving because I know my pup will be well taken care of. Mickayla is the best!”


About: I have been pet sitting on and off for almost 9 years now! I’ve only had great positive experiences and have never had an upset client. I go the extra mile to make sure your pet is taken care of! Also they always end up becoming my bestie! This is my full time job and I love it! Animals have my heart! Give me all the dogs, cats and bunnies to love and care for! I’m super flexible with my hours and always go the extra mile for your furry friends! Located in the Springfield Missouri area! If you entrust me with your pet, I am caring for them as though they’re my own. Every pet deserves love and safety! I will give your pet the care they need and deserve!

About: I have grown up being my families pet care provider! I am punctual, reliable, and most importantly, a pet lover of all, no matter how big or small. I treat everyone else’s pets as I would my own. I provide plenty of love, snuggles, compassion, and treats for your fur babies! I currently have a 5 month old GSD puppy and a 2 year old boston terrier, and they have helped gain a ton of knowledge that I believe will help greatly toward the care of your pets! I also have past work experience at a pet motel. I worked there for about 6 months while I was in school to complete my animal science degree, and I really enjoyed it. My tasks included feeding, administering medication, taking dogs for walks, cleaning up after them, and playing with them. This experience helped me tremendously. By bonding with several different dog breeds I have never been able to experience with, it showed me every single breed is special in their own way! I am currently working a part-time job as a residential and commercial cleaner. I am still trying to fill my schedule, so I will have a lot of days I don’t clean and will be able to come and take care of your pets when you need it! I care for pets in your own home because I feel it is more beneficial for your pet to not have to travel and be in a new environment they are not used to. That can cause a lot of stress and would not make a great experience for them. I want your pet to be comfortable and happy in their own home! In your home, I will take them for walks, clean up any messes made, give plenty of love and cuddles, and leave assuring your pets are happy and healthy!

About: I have experience with pet medication, walking, and basic grooming and training. I’m available most of the time. I love taking dogs on close by trails, or to a dog park if preferred. I can also provide dog training. Dogs are a lot of fun and honestly I don’t want to be doing anything else. I’m very responsible and reliable and a I have a new car which kind of ensures that transportation won’t be an issue. If you give me a chance, I’ll be there. And if you let me, I’ll bring my dogs and we can have a puppy play date, if you will. I’m still young so I can definitely keep up, and so can my own dogs. I work Monday-Friday, 8am-4pm. So I’m available for evening walks and evening visits, and I’m completely open on the weekends! I can feed your pets on time and adhere to whatever your potty schedule may be. I have a fenced in yard and a loving 5 year old dog. We love guests at our house. If you prefer, I can watch your babies at your house. This is my most common request.

“Amber was great! We had her do drop ins for 3 dogs. She communicated well, took lots of pictures, and my dogs seemed much better when we got home than they do when we board them. I would highly recommend and will book with her again!”

About: I have 25 years of experience in pet care. Ranging from the exuberant puppy stage to the laid-back relaxation years. My experience includes bathing, grooming and administering medications (i.e. oral, topical and injections). I enjoy long dogs walks and fun-filled activities. I currently work fulltime during the week and am available to do check-ins any time after 4pm. However, I have open availability with no restrictions on the weekends. During check-ins, I check for any packages or accidents and immediately ensure the entry point is secure. I do not allow anyone inside the home during the visit. On dog walks I avoid all other dogs and humans (including dog parks) to ensure the safety of both the pet and I. I operate as if I am always being monitored and will treat your home and pet with the upmost care and respect.

When they here his name they get so excited knowing they are about to get spoiled with attention. Roddy has helped me out in tight situations that had me leaving town at the last minute. I have recommended everyone I meet to reach out to Roddy for everything from nail trims to boarding! His clients won’t stay clients for long as they become family very quick! Roddy is funny and has a great sense of humor but his love for animals is definitely his number one trait! It is an absolute pleasure knowing this man and having him be my pups Uncle Roddy!”
