Highly-rated overnight sitters - Chestnutridge
“Brooke took amazing care of our baby dog while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. I was able to relax knowing that my boy was happy, safe and loved while we were gone. She took excellent care of him and always kept me in the loop. I appreciate Brooke so much!”
“Ashley was just absolutely amazing! If I could give her 10 stars, I 100% would! She really went above and beyond taking care of our girl! We really enjoyed the consistent check-ins and pictures and appreciate the extra time she took to let us know how Harley was doing while we were away! I was so thrilled that she actually seemed to take the time to get to know our fur baby and treated her like one of her own! This was our first time boarding Harley, but Ashley made it so smooth and stress-free! Would definitely recommend and will be booking with her again in the future!”
“We were very happy with Dylan and his care for our dog. He thought of everything and gave us peace of mind. He sent plenty of updates and photos. We will definitely be using them again. I highly recommend!”
“Helped me last-minute with a 4 night 5 day stay! Accommodating and very kind. Big fenced in yard with a porch and gate for added seclusion if needed. 100% would recommend and use again!!! The video of Ramona while I was away was an added bonus 🤗💜🐾”
“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!”
“As always, Deserae was WONDERFUL! My little Wesley has such a nice stay. He loves hanging out with Deserae and her family and I love knowing he’s safe and well taken care of. Thank you, Deserae!”
“Ashleigh did great with my 2 weenie babies. She has a fenced in, safe yard. She text and sent photos everyday and was very accommodating to their needs. Definitely recommend her services!!!”
“Lael and her husband are so great with our dog! They are flexible and always willing to watch Oakley.As soon as Oakley sees their house she goes crazy! Thanks again for taking care of Oakley.”
“Kim was great. It was super nice to get some Pictures over the weekend our pup definitely had fun as her mini boarder collie was up for playing. Will definitely use her again.”
“Olivia was fantastic! She is extremely kind, communicates clearly, and flexible with changes. We had a few changes with our schedule, and she was so nice about it and took care of things. She sent us pictures and videos of our dogs while we were away. They had a great time, and I felt like they were so safe in her hands. I’ll definitely take them back again ?”
“We are first time dog owners and this was our first time using Rover. Kaitlin was an excellent communicator and always quick to respond. She sent us many updates while we were away that included pictures and a video! She has a great set up for keeping dogs in her homes and our pup came home very happy and very tired from all the playtime he got while he was with Kaitlin. It was obvious from our first encounter that she loves animals and truly wants them to feel well taken care of while they are in her home. We will definitely use Kaitlin again!”
“Anne watched my dog over a recent weekend, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. My dog can be a bit timid and struggles with some separation anxiety, but Anne was wonderful with her. She kept me updated with pictures and videos showing my dog calm, comfortable, and getting along beautifully. It gave me a lot of peace of mind, and I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my dog with Anne again anytime.”
“Oh my goodness...I felt so comfortable with Emily caring for my sweet fur baby. The pics she sent of Sadie affirmed that she was very comfy & at home in a loving environment. I plan to schedule my next trip with Emily in mind. 5☆”
“Our Doods, Toby + Dexter, had a great time staying with Amanda, and her precious family. They were all so attentive and played fetch, chase, hide & seek and of course - gave cuddles & kisses to Toby + Dexter. Amanda was sure to keep the fun inside, when it was too hot to play outside. The consistent photos and videos of The Doods, Toby + Dexter, kept our minds at ease during their stay. If you’re looking for a safe, fun and loving place for your four legged baby to stay, look no further.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience for our little pup with Michelle and her family! Her house is clean and safe, and there’s lots of love and snuggles to go around. A very positive experience for us and Henry and I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. It is obvious that she loves animals. We will definitely use her for our future pet sitting needs. Thank you Michelle!”
“Sydney and her husband did a great job with our dog. They were very easy to work with and gave timely updates with pictures! If we’re in the area again, we wouldn’t hesitate to have them take care of her.”
“Mike was very kind and responsive. He sent frequent updates and took great care of our dog. Our dog can get a little anxious in new spaces and one way he shows this is by not wanting to eat his food and avoids going on furniture. At Mike's, our dog had no trouble eating his food and he jumped right up on the bed and made himself at home.”
“Our pups are our furkids, so we have been hesitant to leave them for too long. Generally they travel with us, but this trip did not allow that. Jennifer was easy to meet with and set us at ease. She kept us updated with photos and information. Dogs came home happy and tired. We'll plan to have them stay again for future travel that doesn't allow them to come along.”

“KJ does great taking care of my two cats. I always feel at ease knowing she will be there to check on them while I’m away. I would ask her to sit again and would recommend her to others.”
“Katelyn did a great job. She showed up at the correct time and did just what was expected with food water and litter. Our cat is not friendly but Katelyn still managed to get a picture. Good job!”
“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.”
“Breelyn is great! She’s always on time, is quick to communicate and sends multiple photos during her visit. We’ve used her for 3 years and our cat Fifi loves her.”
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’ve actually been pet sitting for years and have volunteer experience with the ASPCA. I’ve cared for senior and special needs dogs. We love all pets though I’ve even pet sat lizards snakes and cats. My schedule is pretty flexible I work remotely as a contractor for a big company Monday through Friday.

Mushu’s special care is we wipe his wrinkles & ears daily with a weekly bath. Buddy is a tank who can eat anything but he needs his paws trimmed once a month. Buddy deals with anxiety from being a sheepdog with no sheep so he has lots of toys and an occasional cbd treat.
“Tori was excellent!!!, this was my second time using her for my cat. She was friendly, patient and attentive to my not so friendly cat. She kept me updated daily and made me aware of any arrival delays. She followed all my instructions to the letter. I felt 100% comfortable with the care my cat received and I know I will be rebooking again soon! Don’t hesitate to book Tori!!!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve owned dogs myself, helped care for neighbors’ pets, and walked friends’ dogs over the years. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and overnight care throughout the week. I understand pets thrive on consistency, and I’m happy to work with your routine to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard and live in a safe south-side neighborhood with plenty of room for walks and playtime. Whether your pet loves to be active or prefers quiet cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel at home and cared for like family.
“I love the pictures and timely visits to my cats while away for christmas. She made sure they were fed and had clean water and took time to play with them even for a few minutes. This was beyond what we expected. I will hire her again if she is available when we go out of town again.”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. This includes cats and dogs with special needs such as permanent injuries, animal aggression and seizures. Volunteered at animal shelters all of middle and high school. Very loving and kind with all animals. I work full time as an electrician, however my schedule is very flexible and I have all weekends off. I only work a regular 8 hour day and have plenty of time to spare after work for your beloved furry family member. I live in an apartment but fortunately it has its own dog park area, nearby parks, walking paths and hiking locations. I am very active and enjoy high energy dogs, but I also enjoy relaxing and giving plenty of ear scratches to dogs that like their lazy days.
About: I treat every cat with patience and respect for their unique personality. I’m comfortable with shy cats, seniors who need medication or extra care, and keeping routines consistent to reduce stress. I provide gentle attention, clean litter boxes thoroughly, and send regular updates so you always feel at ease while you’re away.
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.
About: I provide calm, gentle care tailored specifically for cats, including shy or independent personalities. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health. I respect each cat’s boundaries while still giving them attention, comfort, and care on their terms.
About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Chestnutridge
“Everything was wonderful! Max had a great day while I was at Silver Dollar City. Lots of photos and updates :). Highly recommend, and Max will see you the next time we’re in town.”
“Michele is very kind, attentive, and so good with dogs. She is also a great at communicating. Gave us peace of mind. Her dog and our dog became instant friends. We will be using her services again in the near future.”
“Absolutely wonderful! I'm always anxious leaving Lucy Lu. I didn't worry her at all. I could see from the pictures and videos she was being spoiled just like at home. I would recommend Jason to any other anxiety ridden pet Mom.”
“Brooke took wonderful care of Foster. We need a place for a few hours while we had a dog free activity. He came back sassy and happy. We will see her again when we are in the area.”
“Sarah was awesome! Our dog has a bit of anxiety & this was our first time using Rover so we were kind of nervous. Daisy immediately seemed to be comfortable around Sarah & in her home & was happy to return the next day for day care again. We visit the Branson area often & will absolutely continue to utilize Sarah’s services! Great first time experience & happy pup. Thanks Sarah! 🐾”
“Ashley's simply the best. You know someone knows dogs well when the dogs are happy and excited to go visit her. I can't say enough about how much thought and care she puts into everything her and her family do to help others out and their fur babies.”
“Raquel was so great with our 4mo old puppy during our first doggy daycare. She helped her socialize with the other dogs and was very mindful of size/age differences and always had a safety-first mindset. We loved the picture updates and video messages to put our minds at ease for our first day away from our fur-baby. Can't wait to use Raquel again in the future. Thanks!”
“Janie has looked after Maple a couple times now and has been amazing by keeping us updated and providing pic/videos during the visit. I would recommend to anyone needing a Dogsitter.”
“Ashleigh was great with our 2 doggies! We can tell she has a very tender heart for animals. She kept us informed all during their stay and even sent pictures. We highly recommend her! Jay & Carol M”

“Gretchen took in our Xena for daycare at the last minute - for which we were very grateful! She and her husband were great - very communicative and kind. Xena was in good hands and had a good time with their dogs. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello and welcome to our little side of dog paradise! I will need a meet and greet before I can commit to any extent of stay. All dogs must be current on shots and show no symptoms of infection or intestinal issues. Charlie, my last dog was a dachshund, she was not a good social fit for most dogs and we were very limited in taking her or leaving her with anybody. I loved her dearly but she was a total pill! Dottie our new cattle dog mix is just wonderful with other dogs, and because she loves to play...here we are on this site! Dottie is such a great host to all dogs in our house I thought why not? I work from home and also have times where I need to be gone but never for more than 3 hours at a time. I will never book if I am too busy to be a good dog parent. That is a promise. I have a flexible schedule that I am in charge of at all times. I would like to see a complete profile with photos to consider a booking. I am not looking to make this my primary business and only want to cater to the right pets that fit our life. I am not a dog trainer but do love them dearly when they are in my care. A good fit for us is a typical fun loving dog that likes everybody and wants to play and walk. I do believe another good fit would be the super lazy or old pet that just likes to lay around or be petted. I am all about them. They need to be house trained crate trained is a plus. I can’t take any aggressive tendencies toward kids, cats or other dogs. I would also like to avoid dogs that have intense anxiety or tend to be destructive. If our home sounds like a good fit reach out! Our days start early at 6:00am Monday-Friday, the weekends depend on our Schedule. We are also early to bed at 8:00pm so would like to avoid late pick ups but can understand if it’s a late flight or a long drive in a day to get back home. I Have a nice house in an awesome south east Springfield neighborhood, It comes with a wood 6ft privacy fence. I have a 9 year old kid who loves pets as well. We have Felix, a 3 year old male tabby who comes in and out on his own free will at all times of the day. He is indifferent to dogs, doesn't want to hang out with them but not going to bite or attack anybody. He is a good boy. Dottie is our new adopted dog. We got her from care rescue shelter in August 2025 to foster and eventually sealed the deal for keeps. She is a lovely little creature that loves to play and run around the backyard with her other dog buddies. Dottie has a crate and we still use it at times but she is pretty well allowed to roam around. She is crate trained and potty trained. Basically I am pretty easy dog mamma. If they need rest, they get it. If they want to play and run they can. They come in and out when they want. That's how we roll at our house.
“Todd’s farm is amazing! You should let him watch your dog just to see his view and animals! Todd took great care of my dog while we went sightseeing. Brodie had a great time exploring their farm, hanging with the other dogs, and checking out the other animals. Highly recommend.”
About: I have always had pets (dogs mostly) and love them! I will love your babies as if they were my own! I hope you pick me! I have recently retired and am looking for something gratifying to help other Dog owners with the care of their pet! I know how stressful it can be when you have to leave your pet for any length of time and would love to relieve that stress for you! 😊 I have a fenced in yard with a senior dog, Bella. She is such a great dog and is so aloof, like nothing bothers her! I am unable to board certain breeds due to home insurance restrictions and my senior dog so may not be able to accept every request, however, I haven’t turned one down yet!
“So glad I found a sitter I can trust! Wally loves visiting with Piper and making new friends. He seems to be very content here. I’m grateful for the pics, videos, updates, etc and making sure he gets some rest during the boundless energy he has.”
About: I use to run a ranch full of all sorts of animals, and was basically the vet there as well as a horse trainer. I currently have 4 dogs and a cat . I love to see new animal friends and visit with them and see how happy they get when going for a walk or just throwing the ball. I'm athletic and go for mountain bike rides with my dogs and go on hikes as well, also am strong enough for those pups that like to pull. My favorite part of the day is being around my pets and family. I am a stay at home mom who homeschools my child so it can be great to go for walks with pets and get outside. I will care for the pets by loving them and listening to the owners requests . My pets get treats sometimes and outdoor play everyday as well as walks ,weather permitting of course.when it's cold outside we tend to just snuggle up on the couch next to a fire.

About: As a pet parent and a small farmer as well, I believe quality pet care and farm help shouldn't cost an arm and a leg. I believe every pet and their needs are different even within their own family. I believe in honoring pet parents wishes and completing my jobs correctly to their specifications. I believe in paying attention to details and providing excellent customer service. You and your pets deserve a reliable, loving sitter and that is me. I believe enrichment (walks, play etc..) is essential to an animal's well being. I believe in treating your pet as family and loving who they are unconditionally. I have a degree in Zoology and have been working with animals professionally for 15 years. I have experience with all sizes and breeds of dogs. I also have experience with cats, birds, small rodents, fish, reptiles, amphibians and farm animals. Caring for your pets is my only job. I enjoy my job and I too am a pet parent so I know how important my job is. I pride myself on my reliability. I will care for your pet as instructed by you and I will treat them like family. I like doing in your home care as it reduces your pet’s stress.

About: My household was always swarming with pets! From puppy litters to senior dogs, I can help train and make sure older dogs are happy and comfortable. I have taken a break from work to be with family more, so I have all the time for your fur babies! Walking, feeding, playing, I will make sure they are happy and safe! My #1 is to make sure your pets are happy, safe and comfortable. And a part of that is making sure they aren't stressed in their environment.

About: I am local foster through a local rescue. My husband and I both have a passion for dogs and will treat your fur babies like they are our own! We have experience caring for puppies as young as 8 week and seniors. We are comfortable administering medications if needed and are familiar with pups who may have seizures. We don’t have any stairs so there is no need to worry about a senior pup who might have hip issues needing to climb stairs. I work full time and my husband works full time as well. Our schedules are staggered so your pup would be let out first thing in the morning by myself and then my husband will resume until he leaves for work. Midday we have a family member come over and let the dogs go outside and allow them to eat and drink as well as have some time to play. They are never left alone for more than 4-6 hours at a time. The days I’m off I’m home and my husband works from home 2 days a week as well. We have had this routine for over 4 years now with our own personal dogs and there has never been any issues. We had a brand new privacy fence installed on July 12th! We have a half acre back yard so dogs will have plenty of room to run! We will do our best to accommodate any special requests you may have. Please note our home was recently built so our grass is still in the process of growing. There may be days your pet becomes muddy if conditions are rainy. I am happy to provide a bath for your pet for a small additional fee upon request. I also highly recommend doing a meet and greet prior to your stay to ensure your dog will be comfortable with my pets and around the house.
“Regina has been incredible. As our dog’s first walker, she worked with a very anxious pup who struggled with other dogs, people, and even environmental stimuli like leaves. Since Regina began walking her, we’ve seen significant progress—our dog is now more confident, enjoys her walks, and is more comfortable sharing space with others. We truly appreciate Regina’s patience and consistency.”
About: I have 40 years of pup to elder care experience. Training, care and presence for comfort and ease of the dog while owners are away can ease stress. Giving them attention and distraction will help in the owners absence. I’m retired and am wiling to take on all schedules and scenarios. I can feed, water, walk and administer medicine as needed and on schedule. I care for my dogs as if they are my kids. They are fed, cared for and vetted regularly. I would care for the owners dogs the same way or whatever way they ask me to.

About: We love dogs! We are called first when any of our friends go out of town. We have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages from older doxies to young mutts and we love large rotties too. We are also okay with special needs dogs and we make sure your dog gets their medications when scheduled. Our lab loves to make new friends with dogs of all sizes. We have a nice privacy fenced in back yard with a kiddie pool to help the dogs keep cool during the summer even though they will spend most of the time inside. Please know that if your pup stays with us he or she will be treated like a part of the family. We love dogs! I help my Dad on his farm only when I'm not scheduled to care for a pup I'm hosting. I'm free to stay at home all day with your pet. I always keep an eye on what's going on. I'm usually outside if our pups are. If I'm watching a pet at your home, I don't make messes.
About: I have had big dogs in the home since I was born and took on the responsibility of caring for them around 8. I have experience with all ages dogs and can administer medication if necessary. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I’m currently working toward a second degree and commute to Springfield daily for classes, but I always make time to care for my cats at home. Having grown up with dogs, I understand the importance of consistency, attention, and companionship in a pet’s routine. My schedule is structured, and I’m used to balancing responsibilities—so I bring that same reliability and care to the pets I look after. Whether it’s keeping them company, making sure they feel safe, or just spending quality time, I treat every pet. I am very patient and respectful with all animals and the spaces I care for them in. I and careful to return leave the space as I found it or clean up any space if requested.
About: I am a dog lover and have been around dogs all my life and feel very comfortable with all types of dogs. My mission is to provide the best service and care to both you and your fur baby.

I am a stay-at -home, homeschooling mom to 2 girls, 9 and 10 years old. My schedule is very flexible and can usually accommodate any requests. I have 3 Pomeranians that love to play with other dogs and have a very private backyard. Dogs are always supervised, never left alone in backyard.
“She’s amazing with Archer. He’s always excited when Breelyn comes over. She makes sure he has food & water before she leaves. She’s so sweet & always sends pictures & gives updates. 10/10 recommend ❤️❤️ thank you again.”
About: I’m very intuitive with animals and quickly understand their routines and needs. I carefully follow care instructions and focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I enjoy building trust and giving each pet personalized care. I love animals and taking care of loved family members. I am also just trying to get enough money to pay for the rest of my college tuition. With my cat, I feed him 1/2 of a can of soft cat food 2 times a day with a treat at the end of the night. My pickles doesn’t need much care, he is already a very independent cat. When it comes to others pets, I closely follow each owner’s instructions so their pet receives the exact care, attention, and routine they’re used to.

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard and live in a safe south-side neighborhood with plenty of room for walks and playtime. Whether your pet loves to be active or prefers quiet cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel at home and cared for like family.

“We were very happy with Dylan and his care for our dog. He thought of everything and gave us peace of mind. He sent plenty of updates and photos. We will definitely be using them again. I 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!”
“As always, Deserae was WONDERFUL! My little Wesley has such a nice stay. He loves hanging out with Deserae and her family and I love knowing he’s safe and well taken care of. Thank you, Deserae!”
“Lael and her husband are so great with our dog! They are flexible and always willing to watch Oakley.As soon as Oakley sees their house she goes crazy! Thanks again for taking care of Oakley.”
“We are first time dog owners and this was our first time using Rover. Kaitlin was an excellent communicator and always quick to respond. She sent us many updates while we were away that included pictures and a video! She has a great set up for keeping dogs in her homes and our pup came home very happy and very tired from all the playtime he got while he was with Kaitlin. It was obvious from our first encounter that she loves animals and truly wants them to feel well taken care of while they are in her home. We will definitely use Kaitlin again!”
“Anne watched my dog over a recent weekend, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. My dog can be a bit timid and struggles with some separation anxiety, but Anne was wonderful with her. She kept me updated with pictures and videos showing my dog calm, comfortable, and getting along beautifully. It gave me a lot of peace of mind, and I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my dog with Anne again anytime.”
“Sydney and her husband did a great job with our dog. They were very easy to work with and gave timely updates with pictures! If we’re in the area again, we wouldn’t hesitate to have them take care of her.”
“Mike was very kind and responsive. He sent frequent updates and took great care of our dog. Our dog can get a little anxious in new spaces and one way he shows this is by not wanting to eat his food and avoids going on furniture. At Mike's, our dog had no trouble eating his food and he jumped right up on the bed and made himself at home.”
“Our pups are our furkids, so we have been hesitant to leave them for too long. Generally they travel with us, but this trip did not allow that. Jennifer was easy to meet with and set us at ease. She kept us updated with photos and information. Dogs came home happy and tired. We'll plan to have them stay again for future travel that doesn't allow them to come along.”
“Molly provided excellent care for our Corgi. I received pictures and notes keeping me updated. I was concerned that our pickup time might change due to airline changes and she was flexible to work with me. I very much appreciated the love she provided.”
“Ashlyn and her pets were fantastic with my sometimes-reactive dog. She listened to my cautious instructions and made sure my dog had a warm start-up to his week-long stay. Thank you!! Will be returning in the future :).”
“Mallory was great! Chief came back tired and happy from playing. She has a great farm stay for the pups. She was responsive and sent pictures of our pup playing outside and taking a great nap in the house. We’ll definitely be using her for future sits”
“My dogs received the best care from Sabrina. She communicated often and shared fun photos and videos. They loved playing with her dog Dottie and were well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Sabrina to anyone needing a loving dog sitter.”
“Jennifer and her family are wonderful. If my dog could talk, I’m sure she would say the same. She stayed for 3 nights. Jennifer sent pictures and updates throughout the day. I have already booked with them for my next vacation. I am very thankful to have found Jennifer on Rover. Thank you thank you!”
“Brooklyn was AMAZING! My dog has high separation anxiety and she catered to him in every way that she could to keep him comfortable. He was so content and relaxed with her plus had a great buddy to play hard with! She sent me lots of pics and kept me updated. I will absolutely use her again!”
“Kelly was amazing with my super anxious Great Dane when we were passing through Branson and wanted to spend the day at Silver Dollar City!! She took great care of him and even got him to use the doggy door! I would definitely send Bandito again if we ever pass through Branson again!”
“Sarah and her family were very loving and protective of Willow. She has some difficulties with being alone and Sarah was very responsive to that need. I definitely recommend her as my dog sitter.”
