About: I’ve been an animal lover all of my life but specifically dogs. I feel they are true angels and as much as I’d love to own 10 of them, I can’t so this is the next best thing! I’m currently a stay-at-home mother of two children and we have our puppy, Nala. I have all the free time to take care of pets and make sure they’re constantly comfortable, loved, and checked on. I do have one extra large dog kennel. If you want to bring your own kennel, that is also totally fine! I have extra dog bowls as well, but again if you want to bring your own, totally fine! I have a safe, fenced in yard. I like to do outside time as much as possible so the dogs can get their energy out and if you have a food schedule, I can follow it!

“Brittany did so good with my dog! Wished I had found her sooner. She knows dogs very well and will make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for, whatever that may look like with their quirks and characteristics!”

About: As an avid animal lover with six years of experience working with dogs—including those who are sick, injured, scared, or have been abused—I can accommodate any special requests to ensure your dog's comfort and happiness. My home is a safe, smoke, drug, and alcohol-free environment where your dog will feel loved and secure. Big or small, every dog is welcome! I aim to make your dog excited for every visit. Consider me to be your dog's home away from home! Early Morning (6-8 AM): I start the day with potty breaks and individual or group walks based on compatibility and needs. Provide fresh water and food according to each dog’s specific dietary plan. Late Morning (10 AM-12 PM): Engage in playtime, which could include fetch, puzzle toys, or simply supervised free play in a secure area followed by supervised outside time. Afternoon (2-4 PM): Quiet time for rest or individual attention like grooming, brushing, or cuddles. This helps reduce anxiety and provides a calm environment. Evening (6-8 PM): Dinner service, followed by a final walk to allow for potty breaks before bedtime. * Night (9-10 PM): Final check to ensure all dogs are comfortable, have access to water, and are securely settled for the night. Address any late-night needs like anxiety or discomfort. My top priority is creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. Each day includes structured playtime, regular walks, and plenty of opportunities for socialization, tailored to their individual energy levels and personalities. I provide nutritious meals, fresh water, and cozy resting spots to ensure their physical needs are met. Most importantly, I offer constant attention, affection, and a watchful eye to make sure each dog feels secure, loved, and right at home during their stay.

“Great service yet again! Jennifer was able accommodate us and our fur babies and take special care of them.”

About: Hi! My name is Liz and I originally hail from Boston, MA, but recently moved to Fort Leonard Wood with my husband after 6 years in North Carolina! I have been working with animals for over 15+years. I grew up riding horses and worked as a veterinary technician for small and large animals for over 3 years. I have been working as an RN in acute care for the last 6 years, but have decided to take a break from nursing for the time being. I fill up my free time hiking, trail running, weightlifting, fishing, and camping. Life happens, I totally get it, so my cancellation policy is flexible. Please reach out for more information or any questions/concerns. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I currently am taking time off from nursing so have full availability. I am expecting my first child in May 2024, but will be active and dog walking/sitting (god willing) up until my due date! I am an early riser and can really work with you to accommodate any schedule you and your pet need. I would love to know your dogs typical routine and needs. I have a 12 year old Great Dane/pit mix named Ivan who is my best friend. He just needs a good introduction, but is glad to having 4 legged visitors and sharing our home :)

About: Hi, I’m Sadie! We are a military family that has a five year old and two dogs! Kobe is a standard poodle and Honey who is a golden doodle! I know that with having dogs it can be hard to find care so you & your family can take leave to go see family! So I’m hoping I can give families that opportunity. Can’t wait to hear from some of you guys and get to love on your furry babies! Have a blessed day!! I currently work from home Monday-Friday and available weekdays all day! Could offer 3-5 potty breaks a day along with evening playtime along with walks! I have 2 fur babies that are very friendly and always up for play dates! Don’t have fenced in yard but have open backyard area. I also have 2 xl crates if needed.

About: Whether it’s taking care of my own animals, or others, I am passionate about them receiving the best care. I have a gentle heart when it comes to animals but also love playing fetch and other games. I grew up with a family dog I was responsible for caring for, along with many other animals. Growing up on a farm helped develop a love for animals and their well-being. I may not be a professional dog trainer, or even sitter, but I can assure you while your family member stays with me they will feel loved and happy for the entirety of their stay. Whatever your pet needs, I will try my best to provide it for them. *I am willing to drive to St. Robert or FLW area to meet to pick up pets for boarding. I am a stay at home mom so I will have more than enough time to dedicate to taking care of your animals! Any pet would be welcomed right into our family. I have a fenced in back yard where the dog will be able to roam freely to potty. I live in a quiet neighborhood great for walks!

About: I’ve spent my whole life—28 wonderful years—loving, learning, and caring for dogs of all kinds, from tiny Chihuahuas to gentle Saint Bernards! I adore all animals (cats included 🐾) and know how important your pet’s happiness and comfort are. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member like my own. ❤️ I'm a mom to two amazing toddlers. Caring for animals is something I truly love, and I can’t wait to spend time with your furry friend—whether that’s walks, playtime, or overnight care. My schedule is flexible if your pet is kid-friendly and can get along with my cockapoo. Every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. For example, I once cared for a miniature schnauzer who needed lots of love and attention. When I had to leave the house, he felt safest in his kennel, so I made sure he had his favorite toy, something that smelled like me, and a small treat to help ease his anxiety. I fully understand that each pet requires different care, and I am more than happy to accommodate your dog’s individual needs to ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times. 🐾💛

About: I have always loved animals. I grew up feeding stray cats and giving them a warm place to stay before finding them homes. My first dog I was 10 and his name was Flipper. I found my love of animals at a very young age. I am always available to pet sit for friends and family and I would love to help you with your fur baby! I am currently not working full time so my availability is pretty open! I am up early during the week days. I’m also available Weekends! Caring for a pet in home would mean feeding, spending quality time, cleaning up any messes they make and just lots and lots of attention.

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I currently have one rescued border collie mix named Spock. My husband and I have a big backyard and both love animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pet:) I am a college student so just let me know what works for you and your pet and I’m sure I’ll be able to work my life around it:) I’ll treat your pet just like I treat my own. Spock gets along great with other animals but I would love the chance for them to meet before an animal just being dropped off at my house. Spock is allergic to chicken and has high anxiety so I know how important it is to give animals the proper care they need.

“She was so good we so grateful for her will always try to get her again thank you so much”

About: You know what I like about people? Their dogs. While it's not "formal' I do have all the experience of someone who has grown up with pets their entire lives. Mostly (big) dogs but also cats, ducks, chickens, geese, donkey, parakeet, ferrets, several rats (my fav!), turtles, and fish. So as long as it's not a bug I'm totally into it! 🙂 I am capable of bathing, nail clipping, brushing teeth, cleaning ears, etc. I have 2 children. One school age, the other is a year. My days are spent caring for them. My oldest is about to start school for the year so I will have plenty of extra time. We love animals and have 2 dogs of our own. Learning how to care for and RESPECT our animal friends is very important to us. Setting boundaries and learning what behaviors are acceptable and which are not is an important part of teaching children about and how to care for pets.

About: I am a reliable, experienced dog lover committed to maintaining your pet's routine, safety, and happiness while you are away, no matter their age! With a passion for providing personalized attention, I offer timely walks or potty breaks, and, if needed, medication administration, ensuring your dog feels secure and loved in a calm, caring environment. I’m available 24/7! My time will be completely devoted to you and your fur baby! You won’t have to worry as I can text or call you whenever you feel the need! I have a dog that is super friendly but she can be separated if needed, as well as my cats! I do have a 4 year old son.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and have been around them my whole life. As a teacher and coach, I’m dependable, patient, and I am comfortable handling all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I’m very active, so I enjoy walks, playtime, and keeping dogs engaged and cared for. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog is high-energy, needs extra attention, or just wants someone calm and reliable around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also comfortable following specific routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you can have peace of mind while your pet is in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher and coach, I have a structured schedule and am very consistent with my time. I’m available before and after school, evenings, weekends, and during breaks throughout the year including all summer off. I’m active and enjoy being outside, so walks, playtime, and spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m also used to balancing responsibilities and staying dependable, so making sure pets are cared for, exercised, and getting attention would always be a priority. I understand that every pet is different, so I always try to follow each owner’s routines and preferences as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, safety, consistency, and attention are always my top priorities. I make sure pets have plenty of supervision, exercise, water, and attention throughout the day. I’m careful with walks, feeding schedules, medications, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I also know how important communication is, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment while they’re in my care.

About: My experience with animals is over 15 years. From walking/ feeding and watering/ playing fetch/ to giving medicine when needed. Your babies from young to old are given the best in my care. I'm a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your babies! The town I live is small and quiet so your pup should be extra cozy here. I have a cozy shaded (with plenty of room to move about) pen where your pup will stay when I'm not supervising them in the big fenced yard or talking walks.

About: I have 4 dogs myself. have always loved dogs and currently work at a vet clinic as a technician. I also have 3 cats, who probably are my favorite. But we don’t tell the dogs that. I love going on walk or runs, and I’m sure your dog will too! I love high energy dogs, playing outside with a ball is what I always enjoy to do. My dogs are my world and I am very interested in helping people out because I know it’s hard to take dogs out as much as we’d like to or leaving for a weekend and worrying about them but that’s what I am here for! I am available whenever you will need, I am currently working from home so I am pretty flexible when it comes to coming by just for a few to let them out! I am willing to just pop in for daily walks and feeding if needed! My dogs at home are on a schedule and if yours is I can work around it!
