Pet Sitting Ridgedale

“This was Mallory's second visit with Archie & Conor. Archie had previously warmed up to her but Conor is one picky cat. She totally won him over on day one - I couldn't be happier! When we got home today, they looked at us like, "you're not Mallory". 😀”

About: I have cared for and loved my two small, senior dogs for many years. They are now 14 years old. I adopted them when they were about 2 years old. I enjoy taking them for walks, working with them on basic commands, and just snuggling with them. They are truly a big part of our little family. I have also cared for my mom's Yorkie when she needed extra help. I'd been an elementary teacher for 20 years. I'm dependable, patient, dedicated, and more than willing to help you and your pup in maintaining your routines. I know how important daily exercise, structure, and mental stimulation is for dogs; and I understand that they need people and companionship, too. Now that our dogs are getting older, I continue to adapt to meet their needs. I just really enjoy taking care of them! I also know what it's like to need to depend on others for help. That's why I want to provide this service to other dog owners like you! I hope to find dog owners who I can help on a regular basis or as needed. I understand the importance of finding a reliable person who will give excellent one-on-one attention that your pup deserves. I offer high-quality drop-in visits and dog walking at your home only. Many dogs feel most relaxed in their own space, and this lets me provide personalized, one-on-one care. I currently do not provide boarding or host dogs at my house.

“Amazing job and great pics! I highly recommend!!”

About: Hi pet parents! I’m Marci, and I’ve been house and pet sitting for over 12 years with excellent references available upon request. I grew up in Southern Missouri around a wide variety of animals, which gave me early hands-on experience with training and daily care. Professionally, I’ve worked in both exotic and domestic animal environments, including a zoo setting caring for livestock (such as alpacas, ponies, and young camels) and aviary birds, as well as a high-volume dog boarding/daycare facility in Phoenix, AZ where I worked with 150+ dogs daily. This gave me a strong understanding of dog behavior, group dynamics, and handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m confident with drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and maintaining your pet’s routine exactly as needed—including feeding, exercise, medication, and companionship. I especially enjoy walks, enrichment, and positive reinforcement training for puppies and energetic dogs, always prioritizing safety, structure, and calm, happy behavior. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every home and pet with respect and care as if they were my own. I have reliable transportation and auto insurance for peace of mind. I currently live in Branson, Missouri and am a stay at home mom/photographer. My daughter is very gentle, calm, and accustomed to being around animals. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets (or home) and give you peace of mind while you’re away. My daily and weekly schedule is highly flexible and I am available for pet and home care nearly always. If for some reason I am I available my calendar should reflect that - or just ask because I might be available anyway. I am very mindful and cautious, especially when it comes to animals and children. In my home there are no small objects or sharp objects that could harm or be cause for choking hazards. I don’t feed your pet extra treats that aren’t approved by you, and I keep them safe by making sure doors are closed so they don’t run off.

“Our dogs clearly adore Oksana! It meant so much to us to see pictures from each drop-in visit. She was reliably available by text, as well. It made our vacation guilt-free! I would 💯% book with her again!”

About: Reliable and have always had an animal magnetism. I love to get to know the animals and whatever their specific needs are to help make them feel most comfortable. I’m part time at the moment, so, I’ll have ample time to spend with your pup! I can always work out a time to make it work for you. I have a lot of experience with dogs and can assure you that all of your pets needs will be more than taken care of. Please feel free to ask any questions.

“Thanks for caring for our dogs!”

“Haleigh has been absolutely excellent helping me with my golden retriever. She is reliable, cares for my dog as her own and is easy to reach and is always there when you need her. She will do anything for your furry friend! I truly appreciate all of her help and look forward to many more visits with her and my best furry buddy, thank you Haleigh!!”

About: My household was always swarming with pets! From puppy litters to senior dogs, I can help train and make sure older dogs are happy and comfortable. I have taken a break from work to be with family more, so I have all the time for your fur babies! Walking, feeding, playing, I will make sure they are happy and safe! My #1 is to make sure your pets are happy, safe and comfortable. And a part of that is making sure they aren't stressed in their environment. I will stick with their routine that works best for them, and make sure they are happy!

About: I have had dogs, cats, geckos, rodents, snakes, & everything in between throughout my life, but certainly classify myself as a dog-lover! We bred English Pointers growing up in the Ozarks, had a Jack Russell as my own personal pet as a boy, had other dogs in the family growing up, and fostered and dog-sat during COVID! Excited to spend time with your pet! I left my corporate job last year & am currently building a free-lance career and locking in a GMAT score. I am 100% available & flexible- any day of the week and at any time! Currently, I cannot board a pet at my home as our landlord does not allow pets. I am available for sitting at the client home, check-ins, and walks! I actively work with leash-training, and if you would like for me to focus on it with your pet, please ask! I do not charge any extra for this but appreciate tips!

About: 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. 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. 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.

About: I treat every pet like my own and pay close attention to their unique needs. I have experience with puppy training (potty, crate, and leash basics) and caring for senior dogs who need extra patience or medication support. I also provide regular updates so you always feel confident your pet is in great hands. I am working full time but will be able to tend to your animals within my given availability! Your animal will be in great hands When caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, clean, and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate time, and any training reinforcement — so the transition feels smooth and stress-free. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s routine. I stick to detailed care instructions, provide plenty of attention and exercise, keep litter boxes or yards clean, and send regular updates with photos. My goal is always to keep pets happy, comfortable, and cared for just like you would at home.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a kid! I absolutely love pets and have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I can help with potty training, crate training, and obedience training. I will also send pictures and videos for peace of mind because everyone deserves that! I treat everyone’s animals like I would treat my own. I can’t wait to help you all with your pets. I currently clean homes for a living. I’m home a lot and could watch anyone’s pets whenever. I also have a husband who can help and a 7 year old kiddo who loves pets and would love your animals like her own. I have a fenced in yard and 2 fur babies to keep your animals company. We can also crate your fur baby if needed or ours no problem.

About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and birds since I was a teenager. I love them all and will go the extra mile to care for them. I will walk them, play with them, bathe them, and feed them. I'm available 7 days a week, but will only care for one families pets at a time, so first come first served. I take last minute same day requests. I will watch your pets in my home or yours. I don't have any of my own pets right now so yours will get all of my attention and care.

“Byron is an absolute gem. He took phenomenal care of our newfie and goldendoodle. He was also extremely helpful with a number of unexpected “surprises” (not all dog related) that occurred while we were gone. Overall, Byron’s care, effort and communication was above and beyond our expectations. You’d be crazy not to book him.”
