Personalized care for your dog or cat - Valley Springs

“I'm a truck driver, was vacation with my family near by, and left my dogs with Ms. Roxanne. She took great care of them and communicated with me during their stay. She super chill, communicative, and professional. I'll book her again when I can!!”

Alyxandr T.

“This is the first time I have used Rover, with absolutely no complaints. Todd was excellent with Luna, and I feel she was well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to board Luna with Todd again.”

Cynthia G.

“Rowan was great with our dog. We’ve used quite a few people on Rover for care over the last few years, and he is by far the best we’ve used. He sent frequent updates and pictures, and he is great with communication. I highly recommend him!”

“Daisy and I would love to thank all three of you. Carol, Dan, and their beautiful Friend Jackie ❤ First let me tell you who Daisy is. Daisy is my Bassett Hound/ Cocker Spaniel mix Best Friend ❤. I usually do not go anywhere. I decided to go to my Aunts 90 Birthday out of town. Very hard for me to leave my friend behind. I was so happy when I took Daisy over to Carol's home to watch for a week. I told Daisy all week she was going to stay with Carol while I was away. Explained to her that Carol has a very friendly 4 year old German Shepherd. When I took Daisy over to Carol's she was very excited. Every morning I would receive very nice pictures of my friend. I have tried for 12 years to take pictures of my Daisy but only to get pictures of her backside. Never could get her to look when I took them. It was wonderful to wake up everyday to a beautiful picture where Daisy was looking right into the camera like she was having glamor shots taken and some words like good morning dad! When I came back and picked her up, Daisy was like she felt at home. So nice to see her happy both times,when I dropped her off and picked her up. Carol has a very large fenced in yard with lots of plants around the edges. Daisy was in heaven. She would disappear into to taller plants and look for wildlife. I would highly recommend Carol, Dan, and Jakie to anyone who loves their animals and worries about where to board them. You can see by Carol's friend Jackie how much she loves her and the others there being watched by them. Carol, Dan, and you Jackie, thank you so much for allowing my friend to become your friend too. ❤ Thank you so much. It means everything to me. Thanks again and I will be seeing you three 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.”

Jeremy C.

“I boarded my two dogs with Allison in her home: one is a 16 year old chihuahua with a prolapsed trachea and one is a 4 yr old cattle dog who warms up slowly. Allison is amazing. She sent updates and photos, which showed my dogs comfortable and warming to her. I tried boarding at a facility and didn’t like the idea of them in kennels most of every day; I absolutely recommend this alternative and especially Allison. I will definitely seek her services in the future and I feel like my dogs actually made a new friend. They were happy and relaxed when they came back to me. 100 percent happy with and highly recommend her services.”

Terri J.

“Allison went above and beyond to take care of Luna.”

About: I’ve grown up taking care of cats in my house and have been in charge of taking care of friends and families cats. I love getting to meet all kinds of cats!

About: I’ve had family pets my entire life ranging from dogs & cats to goats & donkeys! I have two indoor dogs, Wayne and Emma. Emma is a 5 year old pit bull/catahoula mix. I’ve been through multiple dog trainings with her as she has issues with other dogs and reactivity. She is a nervous girly and needs lots of special attention. Wayne is a 6 year old rescue from a local shelter. When Emma was a puppy I was looking for a buddy for her and Wayne was the first dog I saw, I knew he was the one. He’s easy going, laid back and very chill. My dogs are 50 and 80 pounds so I’m comfortable with small or large dogs! Over Christmas we found a tiny 4 pound kitten in our shrubs outside, it seems the cat distribution system finally got us! We named her Willow (hello to any other Swifties!) and she’s been such a fun addition to our family! My dog Emma is on multiple medications so I am comfortable giving those as well! I am a stay at home, military wife, and have a flexible schedule! I would love to be able to check in on your animals through the day, do feedings or take them on walks. I understand how your animals are not just ‘pets’, they are family. Because I have a reactive dog, I understand that boarding in a facility is not always a possibility. I would love to be able to take care of your pets and the comfort of their own home so that they can feel as safe and loved as possible!

About: I've taken care of many different cats! Most of my friends and family have asked me to take care of their cats! Feeding, playing, taking care of the litter box! And more! I've also always have had cats!

“We needed someone to let our senior dog out once a day while at work. Chante has been amazing. She is very reliable and kind to our dog. I can't thank her enough for helping us out.”

Stephanie H.

About: I have taken care of cats for many years now, I have two cats myself. Im always happy to go out of my way to make sure they are happy and comfy. I have experience with skiddish/snappy cats, I know specific body language in cats. I have experience giving oral medication to cats and able to tend to your cat’s specific needs. I look forward to taking care of your cat in the future!

“Danielle did a great job with my two cats. She was prompt and easy to communicate with, and sent me lots of pictures of the cats. The cats were relaxed and happy when I returned, and their area was kept clean. I would definitely recommend Danielle and I plan to use her again for my next trip.”

About: I have been the sole caretaker of my cats since i was about 6-7. Which includes picking up after them, feeding, changing litter boxes, and enrichment! I have taken care of cats as little as a few weeks old, bottle feeding and encouraging them to go potty by hand!

About: I enjoy caring for and being present with dogs. I am empathetic and always in tune with what others are feeling and need. I would love to hang out with your dogs! I have been around animals my entire life and find myself growing more drawn to caring for them every day. Currently, I do not have a dog of my own so I feel that taking care of your dogs would bring so much joy and fulfillment to my life. I enjoy all types of dogs and personalities and would enjoy getting to know your dogs! I feel others would describe me as patient, balanced, and responsible. Whether I'm just watching your dogs for the day or for an extended period of time you will be able to rest easily because they will be in warm, loving care.

“Ana was great with Ridge. She send pictures and kept me updated throughout the day. She took great care of Ridge and I’ll definitely use her again in the future.”

Alyson R.

“So glad we found Roxanne to keep our boys while we spent a day enjoying attractions in Branson, Mo. There were two other dogs at the house besides our two but Roxanne had it all under control. She sent updates and responded quickly to messages. Our boys were happy and exhausted when we picked them up at the end of the day. Thank you Roxanne. ??”

“Looking for a loving, attentive, caregiver for your furry family member? LOOK NO FURTHER! Allison is phenomenal!!!! From communication, to flexibility, to loving what she does, Allison is the full pacakge! You will love her and so will your pet! I will most definitely be calling on Allison again for her amazing services!”

“Rowan took wonderful care of my dog ​​Hana. He was very attentive, communicative, and it was clear he loved what he did. Hana always came home happy and well cared for, which gave me great peace of mind. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him.”

Leanny S.

“Our sweet Ollie came back happy and calm! ! We could tell he was very well taken care of and enjoyed his time with Todd! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our pup while we were at SDC! We so appreciate it!”

Andrea S.

“Great introductory stay with Carol and Jackie! Carol is attentive and kept in touch through the day - Jackie is a sweet, friendly pup and gave our Sherman a run for his money.”

About: I have owned dogs all my life and specialised in loving rescue dogs for the last 17 years. Teaching them through love is my focus. I have now retired from working a regular job and now my time is to care for and spend the day with mans best friend I have a large fenced yard with lots of shade and trees for play time or just hanging out. Small pens available upon request or bring your own kennel.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, have trained and raised a 12 year old german shepherd to protect my family and currently have two cats :) I work from home most times so I have plenty of time to be with my two cats that I adore caring for c: . I have two cats named pickles and pepper, theyre the bestest ever and they are well taken care of in my home by my three other roommates! When I’ve pet sit for friends, I always try to let the dog or cat choose everything it wants to do, it’s easy after a while to read a pet’s body language and make sure they are comfortable c:

About: After 5 years of providing care thru Rover, it is time for a little Update: I grew up on a small farm, i.e. horses, dogs, cats, goats, a few cows for the fair. Now that I am all grown up and I don't have my family's farm to play around on... I love spending my spare time with animals. I think being a Rover Friend / Sitter is a great way for me to devote time and attention to a pet who otherwise might feel afraid or not do well with a cold boarding situation. I enjoy making your pet feel loved, and welcome. It is important to me that they do not stress or worry in your absence. Plus- it gives me great practice for being a Momma some day. Just like babies, dogs and cats cannot always tell us how they are feeling or what is wrong, lol. [A lot of my "clients" ask, "what do you do for a living that allows you the freedom to still be so involved with Rover?" I am blessed to be a Real Estate Agent, my main office is in Branson, MO (*about 35 min from my home). I am a business owner as well as a REALTOR®️, which means- that if I need to stay home and love on a pet all day on a Tuesday, by golly, I sure can do exactly that. I am blessed with a flexible schedule! I don't mind taking pets to walk at safe parks, if you request. I am flexible, and want to do whatever makes you and your pet feel most at ease during their visit with me. At the moment, I have an unfenced yard, which hopefully is fenced in very soon (May 2025). Therefore, I do not plan on allowing your pet to free roam, during walks or potty times. We will practice loose and long leashing, which does not make them feel like they are on a leash at all. I do not want them to feel constantly tied up while we are out enjoying fresh air. If your pet enjoys being outside, but is used to also being in a chain link pen at times, then yes I have an optional 20ft x 10ft x 6ft tall pen for day time / alone time if you would prefer some intentionally planned time outside. I 100% am a fan of allowing pets to stay in the house with me. I just ask for openness when asked if your pet is house trained. I have an XL Crate if your furry friend is crate trained for bedtime, and I have a guest bedroom if they just would rather lay on their bed from home and have a safe space to call their own. I am flexible. This is about making your pet feel comfortable. NOTE TO MY CAT OWNER FRIENDS: I will never host a cat and dog in the same house unless they are from the same household. I am also a cat person. I would be tickled to host a cat. They have such "special" personalities. I just normally target the above information to our dog friends, because that is a more common guest. I have basic clay litter, and extra litter boxes, so that you don't have to worry about toting all of that around when we exchange.

About: I grew up taking care of all types of animals on a small farm and helped with animals in my mom’s clinic. I currently still help with animals on my farm and have four dogs that I love! I love taking dogs on long walks and have been responsible for feeding and bathing many dogs in the past! I am a college student with many long breaks throughout the day and can find many times to come and say hi to your animal(s). I am not able to take the animals back to my house. However, I can walk your dog and/or play with them in a back yard.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10. Friends, family members, and neighbors would rely on me to take care of their fur babies. I’d always make time to play with them and make sure they are comfortable in the environment. I am currently unemployed but looking for a part-time job, which lets me have a lot of time to watch/care for my dogs and make sure they are happy. I’m available any day at the moment and anytime after 3:30. I take my dogs everywhere I go and when they have to go to the bathroom I’ll put them on a leash and go on a walk with them. I also have 3 friendly dogs to keep your dog company and if needed I can easily crate your Dog if needed.

“Aleah you are a blessing for taking care of Lola.”

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life! I've always been the one to take care of my family and friends pets! Of all ages and sizes! 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! I live in an apartment in Harrison, so I won't be able to keep your fur baby at my house but I can easily take care of them in your own homes! Most dogs and cats are more comfortable that way

About: I’ve had a pet for as long as I can remember-dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters and Guinea pigs. I love them all! I have watched friends/family members pets when needed and am reputable, reliable and check in frequently with updates. I currently work from home and looking for ways to continue to be able to do that yet contribute financially to my household and family. I live in a rural town with just under 10 acres. I do not have a fenced yard at this time, but I am working on that. I do have outdoor kennel areas that can be used if necessary. A lot of room to run and play and also take a nice stroll on a leash.
