“We’ve been using Jodi for a while now and couldn’t ask for anyone better to watch our pets! Very punctual, professional, and caring. We’d recommend her to any and everyone!”


About: What sets me apart from other house sitters is my patient, loving approach to every dog I meet. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds—from tiny Chihuahuas to large German Shepherds—and I understand how to tailor care to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I’m confident in basic training and redirecting unwanted behavior using positive reinforcement. With enough treats and consistency, I truly believe there’s nothing a dog can’t learn! Pet care fits naturally into my daily life—me and my roommate share two cats, Lennox and Sylvia, and they definitely keep us on our toes! Lennox is always digging through the trash like he’s starving (even though they get two servings of wet food a day plus dry food), so I’m often cleaning up his little adventures. They’re totally spoiled, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love playing with them using lasers and feather toys—they’re a blast and bring a lot of joy and routine to my day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding instructions carefully, make sure they get plenty of playtime and attention, and keep an eye on their behavior in case anything seems off. Whether it’s giving meds, scooping the litter box, or just hanging out on the couch for some cuddles, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I know how much animals thrive on routine and love, so I make sure they get both!

About: I have owned and taken care of pets since I was a child. I love animals! They deserve top notch care and I will provide that to them! I am available in the evenings and weekends. I am flexible and can be available during the day, some. Whatever you need, we will figure it out. I will not just put your fur baby in a crate, I will interact, play, and cuddle with them! While you are away, your pet will be safe and well taken care of.

“KJ has been so amazing to work with! Always available for my travel dates, even over holidays. She's been super patient when my pet opts to not come home on time and goes the extra mile to make sure she's safe. I highly recommend her if she's in your area.”


“Teri Sue did an amazing job taking care of and loving on our two fur kids while we were out for several long days. She was very professional and was in constant communication with me throughout. We were able to enjoy our long days out without worrying about our boys and even got as lots of pictures. I am so grateful to have met such a great and loving person. Teri Sue is absolutely fantastic. I cannot say enough. We would definitely recommend her and plan to book a more visits soon. Thanks again Teri Sue!”


About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets since I was 15. I have done sitting for neighbors, coworkers, family, and friends. I have a love for animals and their care. I currently work part time on top of school. I end school here in a couple of months so I am just trying to get my foot in the door right now with smaller jobs until I can pursue fully. With all pets I have sat, I make sure that they have a safe place. If they run off to a certain spot, I will make sure to have all of their needs by that area so they feel safe and comfortable in that corner. With sitting pets and taking care of them, I want to make sure to keep the pets happy and healthy!

About: I worked as a veterinary technician for 6 years before becoming a stay at home mom. Other than my kids, my passion is animals! I am proficient in animal handling, care, and medication management. Your fur baby will be happy, well cared for, and safe with me! I am currently a stay at home mom of 3 littles. We are huge animal lovers! I am dedicated to taking care of everyone’s needs. So you tell me what the baby needs and I will be sure to be there for them. We do not have any weekly engagements that last more than 1 hour, so your fur baby will never be alone. I have a 2 acre property, un fenced. So your pet will have plenty of space to run and play. I also live two blocks away from a local park so walks are a definite fun bonus. I allow animals on furniture and beds. If that is what they are used to. Additionaly I have an extra crate in our home in case your baby needs to be crate trained.

About: I have experience with rats, reptiles, dogs, sheep, cats, cattle, and dogs. Even my livestock animals have been pets. I had my first dog at five years old, and I have cared for pets ever since. I have experience with medicating pets with both edible medicine and shots. I have cared for high-needs pets whether that be a young animal with an illness or a senior pet. I have cooked whole food balanced meals for dogs and rats. I have experience training dogs, rats, sheep, and calves. My rats could go through obstacle courses, my livestock animals would walk right next to me and even go down the road on walks right by my side, and my dogs have known many cute tricks. I love extra large and high energy breeds. I have experience with both. Currently, I have a German Short-haired Pointer and know how much it takes to keep them stimulated! I work in the psychology field, but I am a contractor who can create my own schedule and can work around any walking or pet-sitting appointments. I would treat clients' pets just as I treat my own, like family. My love for animals gives me the ability to care dearly for pets and do what is best for them while keeping the pet parent's wishes in mind.

About: I have worked with many animals of many ages. I have raised kittens from a few days old and have experience caring for older dogs as well I currently have a full time 9/5 job so weekends mostly work for me as well as some weekday evenings. That would fit my schedule best. I have cared for dogs in other people’s homes before. I enjoy doing what the pet loves and is most comfortable for them. I cannot care for pets in my home at this time.

About: Hello, I currently have two sweet and playful golden retrievers that loves new friends! I offer boarding, day care sitting, walks, dog park trips, etc. I have a spacious home for your pet to feel welcome and able to roam wherever they choose inside. I have a dog park a few miles away from my home that is fenced off and allows playtime with our dogs and to get the zoomies all out if requested as well as a large backyard for at home play! My dogs are family and I would treat yours just the same! It’s very hard to find someone or a company to trust with my pets so I figured what better way to use Rover and help others out along the way! Please feel free to message me if you have any other sitting questions or just want to get to know me before hand! I currently work remote from home so I am able to give your pet my full attention and care to their needs during the stay as well as provide you with details and pictures along the way! I have plenty of room for them to play, they are welcome on furniture unless instructed not too by the owner. I treat our dogs like family and would do the same for your pet, whether it’s a strict diet they’re on or needs medication. I have done it all before and gladly, knowing you can feel comfortable during their stay is really important to me!

I'm currently full time around (36 hours) at target in Branson! But I'm in college for pet grooming! I love dogs and cats, I've always had them as pets for as long as I can remember!

Emma S.
“As a former vet tech & lifelong animal lover, Emma is the perfect pet sitter! She treats all animals with love and care. She’s helped me on many occasions with my dogs & I’m always impressed by how knowledgeable she is. She goes above and beyond!”


Carissa J.
“Carissa is one of those types of people who would like a whole zoo of animals for whom to care. She'd have all sorts, including the wild and ferocious kinds. She certainly does have a natural love for them all. In fact, for the most part, she's a vegetarian. She rarely eats meat. She also shared with me how she's rescued many dogs in the past and given them homes. My dog immediately fell in love with her. She doesn't do the bare minimum of care; she actively plays with him and shows plenty of affection. She's even willing to text you a picture of your dog, when asked, so you can see how happy he is. She's a sweet soul, and you'll immediately fall in love with her and will be relieved your "baby" is in her loving care.”




Stefani C.

“Rooster had a great time!”


Laura R.
“Laura has watched my dog Daisy several times. Daisy loves her! Laura always treats Daisy with the same care and affection that she would her own dog. She makes sure all of Daisy's needs are met and let's me know how Daisy is doing. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to watch their pets!”


Raegan S.
“Raegan is so sweet, fun-loving, and enthusiastic so my golden retriever was in love with her. She made sure that my dog had everything he needed and gave him so much love and attention, to the point that my dog wished he could stay longer. I can’t recommend enough. I have to travel out of state quite a bit and I totally feel comfortable leaving him with Raegan and I know he is fine with it too.”


Madison S.
“I highly recommend Madison as a dog sitter. She has taken excellent care of my dog, Bear, in the past. Madison is reliable, attentive, & clearly loves animals, which shows in the way she cares for them. I always feel at ease knowing Bear is in such good hands.”
