“Stephanie watched our Miniature Schnauzer, Lily Belle, for five days. First time our girl has been boarded with someone other than family. From the first day we met Stephanie and her daughter's I knew Lily Belle would be in good hands. We dropped her off ona Tuesday evening and picked her up on the following Saturday evening. During those days Stephanie was great about keeping in touch with text messages and pictures. Her last picture was of Lily and her cat laying together, which is never thought would happen. I can only say if you want your pet cared for like they were home with you, you can't go wrong with Stephanie. We will definitely rebook.”
“Teigan did an amazing job watching my three German shepherds. They had an amazing time and continue to wag their tails at the sight of Teigan. Definitely recommend and will be booking again”
“Shania took great care of my dog while I was away for a few days. She was kind and easy to communicate with, and my dog seemed very happy and relaxed when I got back. I could tell she really loves animals and treated my dog like her own. I’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Crystal was absolutely wonderful and amazing while taking care of my dad's dog for three days always kept me posted with messages and photos on how Jackie's day was and how she was enjoying her time with rose I would highly recommend her to watch my dogs or any other dog without a doubt in my mind.”
“This was my second time using Aisha as a sitter, “Bay-Bay” was so excited to see her again. Aisha even sent a photo to show me her comfortably passed out after playing with her fur friends. Will continue to book with Aisha in the future whenever she is available. First choice, every time.”
“Steven and Karin did a great job with my dog. They gave him lots of love and sent lots of pictures/updates. My pup had lots of fun. Their dog was super nice and was a great friend for my pup. They took any of my worries very seriously and went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and my boy had a good experience. I will definitely be using them again in the future.”
“Sam and her husband are great! They took care of our Goldendoodle for a week. They kept in touch with us during the week with pictures and videos. We couldn’t have asked for a more caring family to watch our Izzy. We highly recommend them and will be using them the next time we leave town. Thank you again Sam for taking such good care of our fur baby.”
“Nina was amazing. Tucker had a lot of fun with her. I’m sure he enjoyed a lot playing with her big and sweet dogs. She sent me pictures and was very responsive. And besides that he got home worn out, meaning that he burned a lot of his energy.”
“Ashley took great care of my two dogs at her kennel. The only thing I would mention is that I had assumed she was watching them at her house when I booked her, but it was really where she is a groomer, so the dogs were kept in a kennel except during play & potty breaks. There were several other animals there. You could tell Ashley loves animals & they did great in her care.”
“Chloe is amazing!!! Jake was abused and abandoned before we adopted him in May. This is the first time we have left him. Upon entering Chloe‘s home it was obvious Jake immediately felt comfortable, safe and was treated like a member of the family and spoiled with his favorite things to do just like if he were at his own home. Until Chloe, Jake would only lay next to me. I was so happy when I received a picture of him so content laying next to Chloe. It was great knowing he was in such wonderful, caring hands. I highly recommend Chloe and I personally will only trust Jake with her. Such a wonderful couple with true love & joy for animals.”
About: I have owned dogs before I could even read. I have always loved dogs and have cared for a large variety of dogs, whether that be age, size, gender, or breed. I have such a love for dogs, I’ve considered becoming a dog trainer ever since I was a child. I’m not currently working, so I’m very flexible with reservations. Just let me know ahead of time and I can be very flexible with you! I remain consistent in their daily routines, especially for potty breaks. I am a huge advocate for positive reinforcement training, so I will make sure the dogs are recognized for doing good.
“Samantha was very professional! She took great care of my very energetic dog. She even sent several photos and a video! We will definitely be utilizing her services again. Thanks so much Samantha!”

About: I have cared for and had pups and cats since I started elementary school, but I picked up the bigger responsibilities with caring for critters around age 15. I have three labs, (ages four, three and two), one cat and a fish. My two females have each had a healthy litter of ten puppies that I cared and found homes for! I am very attentive to my animals and their needs and even more so to other creatures. I currently work as a dog groomer and boarding technician which has given me knowledge on many different temperaments of pups and techniques on how to uniquely tend to them while having safety and care as top priority. Caring for my animals is weaved into my daily routine. I wake up early enough to tend to my pups before my kids wake up to ensure everyone’s needed are met. Depending on the weather we typically have afternoon playtimes or walkies or we will have some water play to end a hot day. Checking water/feed, refreshing water and feed, bath and brushing, and administering medications are all just a part our normal routine list at home for our critters. for in-home visits I am prepared to accompany your animal in any weather and follow through with what your pet is accustomed to. The comfort and safety of your animal is most important. I have emergency numbers for vets and contacts to assist me in an emergency situation (choking, wound, any current illnesses like seizures, etc). Saying that I am NOT a licensed veterinarian.
“Makayla is always very responsive and has been flexible with me when times have changed. She’s wonderful about sending Biden’s or photos to let me see Fiadh is being loved while I’m away. Thank you 🙏”

“Stephanie and her family were absolutely wonderful. She sent frequent updates and photos throughout the day, took my pup on a long walk, and spent lots of time playing with him. From the photos, it was clear he was having an amazing time and was very well cared for. I would 100% recommend Stephanie and will happily book with her again. Thank you so much, Stephanie!”

Me and my wife have a home in Joplin missouri with a huge privacy fenced back yard. Rest assured your pets will have plenty of space for play and relaxing. I am photographer and a stay at home dad! This gives me the opportunity to be home all day for plenty of play and potty breaks. Our son is one year old but is never unsupervised around any pets. Our fenced in yard is very spacious and we have gated areas in our home to separate dogs from each other if needed. We have two dogs of our own Argyle & Daisy who are very friendly and love to play. They are also kept up to date on all vaccinations and are treated for fleas using Seresto collars. We do not have any issues with bugs of any kind and are a non smoking home. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds in our home and have comfy spaces everywhere. Be prepared for plenty of update pictures! We do not use pesticides or weed killer of any kind and our yard is kept chemical free. We also keep water indoors to prevent bacteria from building up. We refresh water as needed.
About: I have personally walked miles and miles with my own, very energetic Weimer.

I often walk my sisters dogs when she can’t due to health issues. I’m ready, and have my walking shoes on! I’m retired now and walking my dog keeps me moving and I love it! I’m ready to add additional exercise for your dogs too! Let’s go! We have a fenced yard and one 9 year old friendly Weimer. We keep our dog inside but playtime occurs outdoors on every good day we find!!
