“Todd was super. Bella loved his home and yard where she could safely fully run at high speed. He let her sleep in bed with him! We conversed daily on how she was doing and he sent a video showing her fun with the other dogs. Just wish they lived closer to me so I could hire them on a regular basis.”
“Leaving your dog behind while you’re on vacation is always scary, but Rowan made it a breeze. He was very consistent with me letting me know how my baby was doing. I could tell she had a great time! Highly recommend!”
“If you are ever needing a dog sitter in Branson, I unreservedly recommend Jason (and his wife)! Daily updates, lots of activity, followed Addie’s routine. For a first timer, who was very fearful of leaving my beloved girl, this was a wonderful experience. And made my stay in Branson so much better knowing my dog was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“When I bought tickets to visit Branson and another sitter cancelled the week before, Sarah stepped in and saved our reservations and took Teddy off our hands and boarded him bc the hotel didn't allow dogs. Teddy don't like isolation ,so she gave him one on one attention and love for the few days with updates to us and even went to store and bought him some toys when he chewed through the ones we sent with him. She was real understanding with his issues and anxieties and his size and we were able to relax and enjoy the shows while we were there. I would totally recommend her and will rebook her if we ever get back to Branson Thank You for the vacation time, Sarah.”
“Our Benny had a wonderful time at Kelly's house, she was quick to respond when we sent out the request and easy to communicate with during his entire stay. We loved the photos and updates that we received of Benny and he got on really well with their dog Yogi. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our baby boy, we'll be back again when we're in town.”
“Tovah did awesome job with Mr Wiggins. She sent pictures of him while I was gone. He was glad to see me but I could tell he had been treated good. When I have to leave again she is definitely the one to use. And I will recommend Rover as a good place to call.”
“Janie is absolutely wonderful! When I had an emergency and needed a sitter at the last minute during Christmas, she replied to me immediately, which helped me so much. Throughout the stay, she sent me daily videos and photos of Poppy, and it was great to see him having so much fun playing with Maui and other friends. Before we left, she gave Poppy some delicious treats, which was such a thoughtful touch. I truly appreciate everything she did. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to friends for future boarding needs!”

I offer special services including baths, administering meds and crate training for additional fees. I enjoy sending photos of the adventures!
“Emily was amazing! She dogsat for us while we were in Branson and took such great care of our pup. She kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind, and our dog was happy and relaxed when we picked her up. We would absolutely trust Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”
“My babies loved staying with Kimberly! It's a good feeling when you know your "kids" are in good hands and are loved and spoiled. They loved playing and chilling with their furbabies. Thanks so much and we look forward to seeing you again . . .”
“Bobby and Sandra kept my mind at ease for the complete time they had my dog. They treated him as there own and provided him with an excellent stay. I never imagined I could feel as comfortable leaving my dog with someone but they exceeded all my expectations. They are wonderful people and I would recommend them to anyone in need of a pet sitter.”
“Steve is gentleman, very kind and was really great in all respects. He proactively reached out before our meetup for any specific needs and to offer to meet me for a more convenient drop off. Our dog is a really sweet but busy guy and he requires an activity or can get squirrelly. He was so calm when I picked him up and clearly was exercised well the entire visit with Steve.”
About: I love animals. Super excited to work with you and your fur baby. Working with animals is a passion for me. Animals and I have a connection that makes them feel comfortable and at home. Of course it also entertains me in the mean time. I currently have a puppy that’s a year and a half that lives with me and my Husband. I also have a husky that's 4 yrs old. I grew up around animals and it’s always a pleasure to be able to work with your fur baby. As far as special skills, I’m able to maintain control of the dog on walks as well as in home while providing the upmost care for your baby. Looking forward to meet you and your furry family. My schedule varies but I usually work anywhere from 11am to midnight, depending on my shift that day. I am a bartender/server. I am beyond flexible for you and your furry kids, I do have the option to request off at least a week ahead so I can make time for your babies. I am very active and loving. I will spend extra quality time with your furry baby to make sure they are comfortable during my time with them.
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.

Getting them out for lots of run and play time! My dogs weren’t nervous with her at all and I got lots of photos of them playing and napping which really helped this fur-mommas nerves!

About: We have always loved animals. We started offering pet transportation to the vet for people who are unable to take their fur babies to the vet and it turned into a full time business taking care of animals 💜 As there are two of us, one or both of us will be available to take care of your fur babies needs around the clock! We just recently moved from Mississippi to the Ozarks and we are currently in the middle of getting a place where we will be able to provide our boarding services again! Until it is complete we will only be able to provide our other services. We can't wait to start meeting new fur babies here! 💜 Our schedule revolves around dogs 😂 Thankfully there's two of us so that we can multitask while ensuring the dogs will always be taken care of. We have a fenced in yard that your fur baby can run wild in without the worry of running off. We also have security cameras that cover the back yard.
“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.”
