“Anastasia (Kristi) was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to help tire our pup out with some exercise, and did some bonus training and cuddles. Our lab mix Kadee Buggins really soaked it up and we can’t wait to book her again! Very kind. Very professional. Extremely fast response rate and excellent communication with the visit. I felt so at ease and knew my dog was in great hands with Kristi.”

“Katie is amazing! She came over and helped sooth my new puppy mom anxiety by making sure luna was taken care of, fed, and let out! She stayed to play with luna, which was not necessary, but greatly appreciated!”

“Steffany is absolutely amazing!! She went above and beyond for us and our dog. She treated him like one of her own and I couldn’t have asked for anything better. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: I’ve actually been pet sitting for years and have volunteer experience with the ASPCA. I’ve cared for senior and special needs dogs. We love all pets though I’ve even pet sat lizards snakes and cats. My schedule is pretty flexible I work remotely as a contractor for a big company Monday through Friday. Although I’d prefer daytime bookings let me know what you’re needing My dogs eat chicken free food cause our pug is allergic. Mushu’s special care is we wipe his wrinkles & ears daily with a weekly bath. Buddy is a tank who can eat anything but he needs his paws trimmed once a month. Buddy deals with anxiety from being a sheepdog with no sheep so he has lots of toys and an occasional cbd treat.
“Chante was wonderful! She took great care of my pups and cat while my husband and I were in town visiting in our RV. She was incredibly accommodating to our crazy schedule and we so appreciate her taking care of our fur babies while we were enjoying Branson.”


About: Your fur babies deserve the best, so you can relax while I handle their health needs, happiness, and entertainment!! I’ve been around big and small dogs all my life, I was raised with them and have been responsible for feeding them, walking them, entertaining them, and administering their medications when needed! I’ve also had the pleasure of adopting and caring for my own cat for 9 years now! I have a deep love and respect for all animals, big and small, and would be honored to assist you by walking or watching your beloved pet or pets!! I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, so I’ll have plenty of openings for walks, drop-ins, or overnight sitting! Weekdays and weekends available!! I will arrive at your home promptly at the scheduled time(s) on a blue motorcycle wearing a white helmet. From there I can take your pets on walks through the neighborhood, entertain them with toys, feed them, administer any medications, let them outside to potty or play, and even stay overnight to watch them.

My life is so much better thanks to you. Cowboy and Hildee want me to leave more now. Lol. ??”

About: My experience includes years of boarding French Bulldogs and other breeds right alongside my daily routine. I know how important consistent bathroom breaks are, so I've always made it a priority to check in throughout the day to let dogs out when owners are gone. Every dog deserves attentive, reliable care — and that's exactly what I provide. As a remote worker, my schedule is flexible and dogs fit perfectly into my daily routine! I love getting outside and staying active, so walks are already a big part of my day. I can easily take calls and catch up on work while keeping your pup moving and entertained. Your dog won't just be watched — they'll be an active part of my day! I always trust and respect what the owner knows best about their dog. Every pup is different, and no one knows them better than their family. I also understand that I'm a stranger at first, so I never rush the process — I let the dog set the pace and come to me on their own terms. Building trust takes time and I'm always patient and respectful of every dog's boundaries.

About: I’m an animal lover who truly enjoys spending time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. While I haven’t owned a dog myself, I have experience caring for dogs of my friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, and basic care routines. I’m patient, attentive to instructions, and take the time to learn each pet’s personality and needs. I currently own a cat, so I understand the responsibility that comes with daily pet care, routines, and building trust with animals. I’m always happy to follow specific instructions and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I enjoy making time to give animals attention, play, and care. I’m reliable with schedules, flexible when possible, and committed to meeting each pet’s daily needs, including feeding, litter care, walks, and quality companionship. I currently work part-time but have the semester off with school, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and following instructions exactly as given. I’m respectful in clients homes and attentive to pets behavior and comfort. I also provide updates so owners feel confident and informed.

About: I am 26 years old and my family has owned dogs since I was born. Dogs have always been very important to our family and we treat them as a part of it. We have owned dogs from as small as a dachshund to a Great Pyrenees! I have worked with young children ages 2-10 so my energy level is use to being very high. Working with children reminds me of the skills needed when taking care of a dog. I am able to be patient, fun, stern at the right times, and loving to all kinds of dogs. I believe dogs are so important and they should be loved very well. I would love to take care of your sweet dog!

About: I’ve had my own dog for the past two years and personally potty trained her, taught her tricks, and trained her to be comfortable and well-behaved around people. I also worked in child care for two years, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for others with attention and love. I treat every dog with the same care and protection I would give a one-year-old baby, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away.

About: I have a wide variety of experience caring for animals, all the way from cats to horses! With two dogs and two cats of my own (and many more throughout the years), I’ve faced my fair share of complications and situations but have been able to handle them accordingly. I’ve had to care for pets with arthritis, hip and bone disease and elderly pets as well new puppies. I’m experienced in basic training such as sit, stay, and lay down. I am a college student! Though my availability is is odd sometimes, i will always make sure to be there for your furry companions and give them the best care they need. I will treat your babies like my own! Depending on their needs, they will receive walks, playtime, nap times, and just plain fun!

Every dog or cat is different and I’m willing to do whatever to make sure they are safe, happy, and healthy while you’re out!
About: I have grown up having pets all of my life and raised and trained them. Many family members have relied on me to take care of their pets while they were away as well.

I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with two outdoor dog parks. I will make sure to keep your dog entertained with a full belly!

There hasn’t been a dog i’ve met that I haven’t loved! Booking with me will provide your dog with proper care but also socialization to goats, cattle, chickens and lots of new smells (all within the safety your dog needs). Im currently a student at a local college during the fall and spring months and work part time during the summer so I have a lot of free time to tend to your animals! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs in the home to keep your dog company! As well as many open fields to go on long walks and play!
About: I spent time as an animal cruelty investigator for Escambia County Florida, and another couple years as a lead care technician for a no-kill facility. I also do basic obedience, as well as some therapy, service, and K-9/working dog training. I work for myself out of my home shop on my own schedule. I can typically work you in for whatever time works best for you. I have converted my garage into a pet friendly play area, and I make sure to keep my eyes on the pups at all times when they are in my care to ensure their safety, whether that's in your home or mine, the park, or a walk around the block.
About: I have been a huge animal lover ever since I was a kid. I have always helped out friends and family with watching their pets.
