“Kathryn did a great job for her first visit with Merlin! It was more of a meet and greet, but Merlin opened right up to her and really enjoyed her company. She made me feel extremely relaxed and safe knowing I would be entrusting her with my fur babies care. We will definitely be using her services this summer! 🌞”


“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.”

“When I say a saint… Paige watched my three pugs and hedgehog this past week while I was on vacation.

About: I have grown up with a variety of pets and have come to consider them all a part of the family. From Geckos to Hermits, Fish to Frogs, and Cats to Dogs, I've housed a variety and have loved them all to the core! I am particularly familiar with Medium sized dogs, but I am no stranger to the big, the bad, or the snugly. For cats, I can be a bit squeamish when it comes to litter, but that is nothing a mask or a nose clip won't fix! As a full time college student, online classes allow my schedule to be very flexible. My grades are important, but nothing motivates me more than a happy pet and a satisfied customer! As someone who understands that home is a place to escape the daily riff raff, I am willing to keep visits as quick and simple as possible or as long and engaging as preferred. A meet and greet is encouraged so I can better understand the needs of your pet and so that the pet and I can become familiar.

“Mickayla was able to help me out last minute with a drop-in visit on my 2 dogs & she was amazing! She sent lots of pictures and my dogs were fed & happy when i got home. I absolutely will be contacting her for future visits!”


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 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.

About: I have taken care of chihuahua’s to Pitbulls and have had dogs since I was a child. I have boarded dogs and regularly do house visits to let dogs out to potty during the work week. I am experienced in understanding dog behavior and communication patterns. I work from home 5 days a week and care for my own 2 dogs that get to spend time outside in our backyard every few hours. I have a large fenced backyard and have experience with animal care. The dogs will spend a majority of their time indoors, but frequently have supervised outside play time in the backyard (weather permitting). Dog walks can also be provided at no addition cost. At night, I have a large kennel inside they can sleep in with blankets. Daily pictures and status updates can be sent as well if desired. Pets toys are welcome if you would like to bring your own. To ensure a low stress transition owners are welcome to set up a meet and greet prior to booking. All dogs will be introduced one at a time with any other animals and be able to take a private house tour.

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.

About: Hello! My name is Victoria, but you can call me Tori! I grew up with pets of all shapes and sizes. Currently, my family has 6 dogs (including 4 pugs!) amongst a variety of other animals such as parrots, a cat, a turtle, and a rabbit. Sometimes the dogs will stop by and visit, but all of these pets live with my parents. We love our furry (and non-furry) friends over here! In addition, I worked at a veterinary clinic for 2 years as a kennel technician. In my position, I was responsible for caring for pets being boarded as well as hospitalized pets. I have the experience and passion for your furry friend(s)! Currently, I’m available Monday-Friday at any time for any walk schedule! I work part-time and will be attending school in the fall so my schedule will be completely open for a few more weeks! Please message me with any scheduling requests and/or questions, I’d be happy to work with you! I provide upmost care to take your furry friends on walks around the neighborhood to get some much needed engagement and stimulation! As a Drury college student, I’m happy to use this service opportunity to incorporate exercise and pups into my schedule!

About: I grew up on a farm in southern MO. Been able dogs my whole life. I have two senior girls named Angie (Lhasa Apso) and BB (Chihuahua/Boston Terrier mix). I’ve had experience with puppies to seniors. I’m a nurse. I work 5 days a week. I try to schedule things around my day as that is when my dogs typically get the most outdoor time. I have two small dogs who are friendly. I can kennel if needed. I’m easy going and can accommodate to any needs that are requested.

About: We love dogs! We are called first when any of our friends go out of town. We have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages from older doxies to young mutts and we love large rotties too. We are also okay with special needs dogs and we make sure your dog gets their medications when scheduled. Our lab loves to make new friends with dogs of all sizes. We have a nice privacy fenced in back yard with a kiddie pool to help the dogs keep cool during the summer even though they will spend most of the time inside. Please know that if your pup stays with us he or she will be treated like a part of the family. We love dogs! I help my Dad on his farm only when I'm not scheduled to care for a pup I'm hosting. I'm free to stay at home all day with your pet. I always keep an eye on what's going on. I'm usually outside if our pups are. If I'm watching a pet at your home, I don't make messes.

“Allison was quick to respond when we needed a drop in last minute. She was wonderful and trustworthy. This is my first time using rover and it was a great experience!! She even picked up after the puppies mess”


About: I've been a veterinary technician for 9 years. Emergency and critical care are my specialty, but I've recently reduced my clinic hours and moved to routine surgery and preventative medicine. As our business grows, I will continue to reduce my clinic hours! We care for your kiddos with the same expectations we would have for our own. With almost 2 acres fenced, we are able to have lots of exercise. We do have a section that is all 6 foot privacy fencing, so please let us know if your pet is a jumper so we can be sure to use that instead of our 4.5 foot fenced area. Both sections are ample space for a good game of fetch or tag. We do utilize kennels when we have to be away, and for bedtime. Our kennels are 5x5 indoor runs, perfect for large dogs or families with multiple dogs! I am Fear Free certified. In a clinic setting, this is used with a combination of high value reward, touch gradient & sometimes paired with anxiety medications. For boarding, we provide quiet places for pets to decompress, comfort items from home, and calming music to soothe. Our dogs are vaccinated against rabies, DAPP, leptospirosis & bordatella. They are kept on monthly preventative year round to keep fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites away. Boarders are required to have a rabies vaccine - DAPP, leptospirosis & bordatella are recommended. We sanitize daily with Rescue, it is a high strength, pet friendly cleaner. We do board for multiple families. We take into consideration friendliness of each pet and take all necessary precautions to keep everyone safe. Playtime with our own dogs is at my discretion. I never expect all dogs to automatically be friends, though each of our dogs is very friendly. It is ideal for pets' to stay on their own food to prevent upset stomachs, but we can provide meals for an additional $6/day. Please let us know of any allergies. Pick up & drop off times MUST be scheduled in a 30 minute time block, and that time needs to be respected. Please understand that while we absolutely love having your pets, we are also raising our family from the same home. Any changes to your pick up/drop off need to be made with 24 hour notice, and we will do our best to accommodate. My clinic hours are part-time. I have surgeries to monitor Wednesdays and Thursdays and am often slower to respond during those hours. When I'm in clinic, my patients are my priority. Before and after work hours, I am at home caring for and loving on our dogs! We have the option for both kennels or runs. Our runs are 5x5 INDOOR - so a great option for owners with multiple dogs that would rather sleep together! Keep in mind, we only use kennels/runs for overnight sleeping, otherwise, we spend lots of time playing outside, lounging on the couch, going for walks! Our yard is 6 foot privacy fenced, and our personal dogs are very accustomed to new visitors, so if your pet wants a playmate, we've got that covered! We will only ever introduce dogs that match in personality. We know not every dog will be best friends, so we like to spend a little bit of time learning our boarding dogs and then chose our personal dogs to match for playtime! It's also okay if your dog doesn't want to play, we have the ability to rotate and keep separate, while still allowing plenty of time out of a run!
