“My dog loved his stay! He came back tired and happy from getting to play outside with other dogs. Chelsea was very accommodating when we couldn't pick our dog up at the original time. We will definitely be using her services again.”

“Chris did a great job taking care of our dog, Jefferson, and was available over Memorial weekend, which was so helpful. Throughout the 2-week stay, he provided pictures and updates to us. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for someone to take care of (and love) their pet.”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 5 and I’ve loved it ever since. I’ve had owned many dogs and cats. I’ve helped with pets of all ages, from tiny babies to sweet seniors. I’m going to school for animal behavior and care because animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I love making sure they’re happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Right now, I am going to school online for my bachelors while working! Pet care is the perfect way for me to stay busy doing something I love while also helping people out. It fits into my routine really well right now because I have the time and flexibility, and it gives me experience for my future career with animals. It’s a win-win, I get to be around pets and give them the love and care they deserve while I’m in this in-between stage. When I’m caring for pets in someone’s home, I treat it like my own, with a lot of respect and care. I always follow your instructions closely because every pet has their own routine and comfort zone. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to their feeding schedule, giving meds, or just keeping them company, I focus on creating a calm and happy environment. I know how much trust it takes to let someone into your home, and I don’t take that lightly.

About: I’ve lived with cats my whole life and totally get their moods, quirks, and need for both space and love.

About: Hi, my name is Sara Dressler! I graduated Pittsburg State in December 2020 and I’m now a full time web developer at LimeLight Marketing. During covid I was finally able to get my own dog but before I helped my parents take care of our 3 dogs and 4 cats. I realize pets are part of the family just like anyone else, therefore, I will make sure to care for yours like they are mine. I am a full time worker but my hours are very flexible. I usually take a lunch break from 12-1 which is a perfect time to check on my pets. I can also work remotely if more care is needed. I have a cat(JC) and a chihuahua minpin (Brutus) that loves to play with other dogs. My yard is pretty big however it is not a fenced yard. I usually take Brutus outside multiple times a day to the back section of the yard. If I take your dog outside, I will make sure to keep the leash on. Brutus likes to get into things, so I make sure the house is picked up so he can’t get into trouble. I also have a crate if needed.
“We’re so happy to have found Brent to watch our littermate Lab pups, Rose and Daisy. We were way over do for a much needed shopping trip. Brent was wonderful with our overly excited girls. After we dropped them off, he got them calmed down, and they had a great time and so did we. Brent was great at communicating. Would very much like to rebook with Brent if he’ll have us.”

About: Hi, my name is Bri! I just moved here a few months ago from California. I grew up around all kinds of animals, mainly dogs. I've always had a soft spot for dogs. I used to walk neighborhood dogs and go to animal shelters just to walk them and play with all the animals when I was younger. I am a dog mom myself to a three-year-old Border Collie Lab Mix. And just recently I got a GSP puppy as many of us know is full of energy! I understand how difficult it is to trust your pet with a stranger, but you have my promise that I will treat your dog as if he or she were my own, and that all of their needs will be met! My dog isn't easy to handle, therefore I'm always up for a challenge! My dog, Mya, has food sensitivities and is quite shy, so I'm used to dealing with these kind of situations and will do my best to assist your dog! I am currently a full-time college student, but now that majority of my courses are online I have a lot of time to play with your pups! I am free on weekdays and weekends at any time! I have a fenced backyard at my house and a crate if needed! I normally take my dog to dog parks to play with other dogs or nature trails.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a little girl. I had my first cat when I was 5 years old. I have a dog named Dexter that is 7 years old, we rescued him when he was abandoned at about 2 weeks old. He is a sweet boy and does well with other animals. I've had so many other sweet animals (including horses) that were with me forever. All of my animals have been rescued. I have experience with all different breeds, growing up we had mutts, but also had Rottweiler's, Doberman, German Shepard's, Great Danes. I have personal experience with itty bitty dogs, and great big dogs. I would love to take care of your babies and love them like my own. Bully breeds too! I am comfortable medicating, bathing, walking, and anything else pets may need. I was an EMT for many years so I am really comfortable with anything medical, even with pets. My sweet Dexter crossed the rainbow bridge in February, 2024. He’s loved and missed so much. I'm currently living in Fayetteville, bur work in Joplin, Mo so I can work all Around the areas. Im learning and exploring so I’m happy to explore with a furry friend. I am currently unable to have pets stay in my home, but I am more than willing to stay in your home if that's better for your pet. I want to make sure your babies are taken care of the way you would take care of them. I would like for their routine to stay as close to normal as possible while you're away. I loved having my sweet Dexter with me, and it’s been tough since he passed.
