This was my lab, Josie's, first stay with Megan A., and she had a blast! From the moment she and I entered the house, Megan made us feel welcome. She is a serious, knowledgeable dog person, and the love, the helpful information, and care she shared made a huge difference. In the past, I have felt a tad guilty about having to board Josie...but now, seeing how she fit so well with Megan's "squad," well, I'm gonna feel guilty if I don't take her there. Our family recently relocated to the Lake area as full timers after 30 years of being weekenders, so having great resources now that we are living here is so important. If you are in the Lake area and want your pup to have a great stay, give Megan a try, you won't be disappointed.

About: Moe’s Place is a small in home dog boarding facility. I provide one on one care as well as exit baths. Moe’s Place has commercial kennels indoors and outdoors so they can stay outside when the days are nice. There is a large fenced in play area, but only dogs who come together play together. I make sure every dog is given some additional time to be treated like family. We turn our pups out in the morning before feeding, around noon and early afternoon. We also ensure your pup has time to go out before bed. We live here so it makes it very convenient to ensure your family member is getting the best care. We have lots of open time and play time. If your pup decides they would rather play indoors, we have an indoor play area also.

About: I stand out because I offer dependable, personalized care that fits each pet’s routine and personality. I’m comfortable with young pets that need extra patience, consistency, and reinforcement of basic training, as well as senior pets that may need a gentler pace, medication support, and close attention to comfort and mobility. I focus on keeping pets calm, safe, and happy, while giving owners regular updates and peace of mind. Pet care is a natural and meaningful part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, making time for consistent walks, feeding, and calm, attentive companionship. I’m home often with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide steady care throughout the day and a peaceful, secure environment overnight. Whether it’s daytime visits or extended stays, I focus on creating a balanced, comforting routine so each pet feels safe, relaxed, and right at home. I care for pets with a calm, attentive approach, whether they’re in my home or their own familiar space. In my home, I create a peaceful, balanced environment with consistent routines, cozy spaces to relax, and plenty of gentle attention so pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m mindful of their individual needs, energy levels, and preferences, making sure they have the right mix of activity and rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their usual routine to help them feel secure and at ease. I respect your space, follow all care instructions closely, and provide dependable, loving companionship while you’re away. My goal in both settings is to create a steady, comforting experience where pets feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for.

I currently work around 25-30 hours a week and am free most of the day! I work around 5 hours each day I work and can swing by your house to check on your pet as many times as needed between. I have a dog crate and a mostly empty neighborhood to go on walks and also have a pet-friendly car to transport your pet to dog parks!

About: I have 4 dogs myself. have always loved dogs and currently work at a vet clinic as a technician. I also have 3 cats, who probably are my favorite. But we don’t tell the dogs that. I love going on walk or runs, and I’m sure your dog will too! I love high energy dogs, playing outside with a ball is what I always enjoy to do. My dogs are my world and I am very interested in helping people out because I know it’s hard to take dogs out as much as we’d like to or leaving for a weekend and worrying about them but that’s what I am here for! I am available whenever you will need, I am currently working from home so I am pretty flexible when it comes to coming by just for a few to let them out! I am willing to just pop in for daily walks and feeding if needed! My dogs at home are on a schedule and if yours is I can work around it!

I’m a very trustworthy person and would never do anything that puts your animal in harm. I will always ensure that the animal is being loved like my own and taken care of.

Josie is a cat whisperer! We’ve had a number of people care for our fur babies and only Josie has been able to get both cats out from under the bed to eat and play! And for the first time ever, Sweetie got her insulin shots!!! When we got home I think they were both disappointed that it wasn’t Josie walking through the door!! Thank you, Josie for taking such good care of Sweetie and Bugs! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

About: I love all animals and can’t wait to hear about or meet your furry family member . Allow me to look after you pet, plant, home and many other services. If you need to be out of town or have just need a little extra help with a high energy pet. Check my schedule and see if my services align with what you’re looking for. I have a few furry felines and dogs that I already help take care of.. I have cared for small to medium size dogs in the past and grew up with a house full of pets. Including but not limited to dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles, foul/birds, and minimal farm animals. However, every fur buddy or man’s best friend is unique. Let’s communicate on the needs or preferences for your special furry family member and see if I can accommodate. I appreciate your careful consideration. I can be flexible on scheduling and accommodations. Please be considerate of my time and cancellations and I will do the same respect. Thank you so much!

About: I have grown up with and around dogs and cats since I was a little girl, and feel much more comfortable around them than I do most people! Nothing makes my heart happier than being surrounded by all types of animals. My goal is to treat your babies like family members , and do whatever it takes to make them happy and comfortable while you are away. I love to be active with dogs whether it is playing, walking, or running. On the other hand, I am just as happy to sit around and simply pet your furry friends if they are older and / or more relaxed. I will accept any breed and any age, I am more than comfortable with whatever is needed and requested.

About: I've always loved animals ever since I was a little girl. Since the age of 9 I've been around all kinds of animals besides dogs and cats. Like birds and reptiles that kinda thing. When I do pet sit for someone I usually try to see what the dogs or cats favorite toy or treat is. Then would go and buy a little goody bag for them, just to tell them that there a good girl or a good boy! Besides watching your pets I try to make sure to tidy up your house and to make sure it's nice before you come home. I'm also a quick learner and would help if your animal needs a certain kind of medicine or treatment. I have some experience with that already but I love to learn new things! I'm currently only working weekends part time. It's just not enough for me and since I love animals why not be a pet sitter or just your everyday dog walker. I try my very best to get to know your pet as much as possible. More like I'll treat your pet like how I treat my own. For an example if they have allergies I'll make a quick note and make sure that I don't give them anything there not supposed to have.

About: I’ve spent my whole life—28 wonderful years—loving, learning, and caring for dogs of all kinds, from tiny Chihuahuas to gentle Saint Bernards! I adore all animals (cats included 🐾) and know how important your pet’s happiness and comfort are. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member like my own. ❤️ I'm a mom to two amazing toddlers. Caring for animals is something I truly love, and I can’t wait to spend time with your furry friend—whether that’s walks, playtime, or overnight care. My schedule is flexible if your pet is kid-friendly and can get along with my cockapoo. Every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. For example, I once cared for a miniature schnauzer who needed lots of love and attention. When I had to leave the house, he felt safest in his kennel, so I made sure he had his favorite toy, something that smelled like me, and a small treat to help ease his anxiety. I fully understand that each pet requires different care, and I am more than happy to accommodate your dog’s individual needs to ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times. 🐾💛

About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats since I was in my teens, and I'm 68yo now. I have seen just about everything you could see with my dogs. They don't call them man's best friend for nothing. Most of my dogs have been large dogs (Great Danes and Labs). But I have also lived with small dogs. I have raised puppies, including having to bottle feed them when their mother was sick. And sadly I had to retire some of my best buddies. So I've been thru the just about everything with my dogs. I'm retired now, and can focus 100% on taking care of your family members when you need to leave them. You'll never have to worry if they are ok, I'll treat them like their my own I can come to your place and make sure your pet is well taken care of, and you will never have to worry about them. If a situation comes up, I would call right away to get your solution to the problem.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and have been around them my whole life. As a teacher and coach, I’m dependable, patient, and I am comfortable handling all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I’m very active, so I enjoy walks, playtime, and keeping dogs engaged and cared for. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog is high-energy, needs extra attention, or just wants someone calm and reliable around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also comfortable following specific routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you can have peace of mind while your pet is in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher and coach, I have a structured schedule and am very consistent with my time. I’m available before and after school, evenings, weekends, and during breaks throughout the year including all summer off. I’m active and enjoy being outside, so walks, playtime, and spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m also used to balancing responsibilities and staying dependable, so making sure pets are cared for, exercised, and getting attention would always be a priority. I understand that every pet is different, so I always try to follow each owner’s routines and preferences as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, safety, consistency, and attention are always my top priorities. I make sure pets have plenty of supervision, exercise, water, and attention throughout the day. I’m careful with walks, feeding schedules, medications, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I also know how important communication is, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment while they’re in my care.

I fully understand that each pet requires different care, and I am more than happy to accommodate your dog’s individual needs to ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times. 🐾💛

About: I have 4 dogs myself. have always loved dogs and currently work at a vet clinic as a technician. I also have 3 cats, who probably are my favorite. But we don’t tell the dogs that. I love going on walk or runs, and I’m sure your dog will too! I love high energy dogs, playing outside with a ball is what I always enjoy to do. My dogs are my world and I am very interested in helping people out because I know it’s hard to take dogs out as much as we’d like to or leaving for a weekend and worrying about them but that’s what I am here for! I am available whenever you will need, I am currently working from home so I am pretty flexible when it comes to coming by just for a few to let them out! I am willing to just pop in for daily walks and feeding if needed! My dogs at home are on a schedule and if yours is I can work around it!

About: I've always loved animals ever since I was a little girl. Since the age of 9 I've been around all kinds of animals besides dogs and cats. Like birds and reptiles that kinda thing. When I do pet sit for someone I usually try to see what the dogs or cats favorite toy or treat is. Then would go and buy a little goody bag for them, just to tell them that there a good girl or a good boy! Besides watching your pets I try to make sure to tidy up your house and to make sure it's nice before you come home. I'm also a quick learner and would help if your animal needs a certain kind of medicine or treatment. I have some experience with that already but I love to learn new things! I'm currently only working weekends part time. It's just not enough for me and since I love animals why not be a pet sitter or just your everyday dog walker. I try my very best to get to know your pet as much as possible. More like I'll treat your pet like how I treat my own. For an example if they have allergies I'll make a quick note and make sure that I don't give them anything there not supposed to have.

About: I have had a multitude of animals throughout my life. I was always responsible for the pets in our home and I will strive to take the best care of your pets. It is very important that they are well taken care of when you’re not able to be there!! I am currently a stay at home mom! I have all the time for your pets. My schedule is very open and only a couple days a year I am not here! I have a fenced in back yard full of grass for your fur baby to play around in.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and have been around them my whole life. As a teacher and coach, I’m dependable, patient, and I am comfortable handling all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I’m very active, so I enjoy walks, playtime, and keeping dogs engaged and cared for. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog is high-energy, needs extra attention, or just wants someone calm and reliable around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also comfortable following specific routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you can have peace of mind while your pet is in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher and coach, I have a structured schedule and am very consistent with my time. I’m available before and after school, evenings, weekends, and during breaks throughout the year including all summer off. I’m active and enjoy being outside, so walks, playtime, and spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m also used to balancing responsibilities and staying dependable, so making sure pets are cared for, exercised, and getting attention would always be a priority. I understand that every pet is different, so I always try to follow each owner’s routines and preferences as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, safety, consistency, and attention are always my top priorities. I make sure pets have plenty of supervision, exercise, water, and attention throughout the day. I’m careful with walks, feeding schedules, medications, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I also know how important communication is, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment while they’re in my care.

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I am the one my family calls when they need pet care if they're going out of town. Whether it is for 2 days or 2 months, I care for the animals everyday and always report back to the owners. I am currently working part time, so I have a lot of time to care for your pets! I mostly work weekends and a few days during the week, those usually being night shifts. I am excited to care for any pet of any kind, shape or size! I will always walk, feed, and groom your pet as needed. I can carry your pet if they can't walk, and I can run with your pet if that's all they want to do!

About: I have experience working with and caring for a variety of animals (Dogs, Cats, Birds, Chickens) including feeding, grooming, exercising, and monitoring their overall health and well-being. I have 2 dogs, black/tan coonhound Waylon, and Black/tan mini dachshund Molly, and my orange tabby cat Garfield. Through my interactions with animals, I have developed patience, responsibility, and strong observation skills, allowing me to recognize changes in behavior and respond appropriately to their needs. I am comfortable handling animals in a safe and compassionate manner and understand the importance of maintaining clean living environments, following care routines, and ensuring animals receive proper attention and enrichment. My experience has strengthened my commitment to providing quality care and promoting the welfare of animals. I am currently working at a boarding facility and dog groomer but have a lot of time around work to help care for your pets! I'm also available during the weekend. I currently have 2 dogs at my house that use an electric fence and they use kennels as well. When I take them out, I use a good leash and make sure to have a tight grip.

About: I love all animals and can’t wait to hear about or meet your furry family member . Allow me to look after your beloved pets, plants, home and many other things. If you need to be out of town or just need a little extra help with a high energy pet. Check my schedule and see if my services align with what you’re looking for. I have a few furry felines and dogs that I already help take care of.. I have cared for small to medium size dogs in the past and grew up with a house full of pets. Including but not limited to dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles, foul/birds, and minimal farm animals. However, every fur buddy or man’s best friend is unique. Let’s communicate on the needs or preferences for your special furry family member and see if I can accommodate. I appreciate your careful consideration. I can be flexible on scheduling and accommodations. Such as pick up/drop off, boarding, full day care, in home care, walks, vet visits and much more. Please be considerate of my time and cancellations and I will do the same respect. Thank you so much! I can’t think of any thing more wonderfully rewarding than to help you care for your furry loved ones. I currently am only caring for a few furry felines and small/medium dogs for close family. I’m looking to expand and see the rest of MidMo and its pet lovers community. Thank you for all your consideration and shares! Fenced in yard. Single room with twin bed for single or multi pets of same family Pet owner provides: Food Medications Optional items: Blankets Toys Treats Care and exercise needs can be discussed and evaluated further upon request. Each pet is different in what care they need. There are many energy levels and temperaments to keep aware of.

About: I have grown up with and around dogs and cats since I was a little girl, and feel much more comfortable around them than I do most people! Nothing makes my heart happier than being surrounded by all types of animals. My goal is to treat your babies like family members , and do whatever it takes to make them happy and comfortable while you are away. I love to be active with dogs whether it is playing, walking, or running. On the other hand, I am just as happy to sit around and simply pet your furry friends if they are older and / or more relaxed. I will accept any breed and any age, I am more than comfortable with whatever is needed and requested.

This was my lab, Josie's, first stay with Megan A., and she had a blast! From the moment she and I entered the house, Megan made us feel welcome. She is a serious, knowledgeable dog person, and the love, the helpful information, and care she shared made a huge difference. In the past, I have felt a tad guilty about having to board Josie...but now, seeing how she fit so well with Megan's "squad," well, I'm gonna feel guilty if I don't take her there. Our family recently relocated to the Lake area as full timers after 30 years of being weekenders, so having great resources now that we are living here is so important. If you are in the Lake area and want your pup to have a great stay, give Megan a try, you won't be disappointed.

About: Moe’s Place is a small in home dog boarding facility. I provide one on one care as well as exit baths. Moe’s Place has commercial kennels indoors and outdoors so they can stay outside when the days are nice. There is a large fenced in play area, but only dogs who come together play together. I make sure every dog is given some additional time to be treated like family. We turn our pups out in the morning before feeding, around noon and early afternoon. We also ensure your pup has time to go out before bed. We live here so it makes it very convenient to ensure your family member is getting the best care. We have lots of open time and play time. If your pup decides they would rather play indoors, we have an indoor play area also.

About: I stand out because I offer dependable, personalized care that fits each pet’s routine and personality. I’m comfortable with young pets that need extra patience, consistency, and reinforcement of basic training, as well as senior pets that may need a gentler pace, medication support, and close attention to comfort and mobility. I focus on keeping pets calm, safe, and happy, while giving owners regular updates and peace of mind. Pet care is a natural and meaningful part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, making time for consistent walks, feeding, and calm, attentive companionship. I’m home often with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide steady care throughout the day and a peaceful, secure environment overnight. Whether it’s daytime visits or extended stays, I focus on creating a balanced, comforting routine so each pet feels safe, relaxed, and right at home. I care for pets with a calm, attentive approach, whether they’re in my home or their own familiar space. In my home, I create a peaceful, balanced environment with consistent routines, cozy spaces to relax, and plenty of gentle attention so pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m mindful of their individual needs, energy levels, and preferences, making sure they have the right mix of activity and rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their usual routine to help them feel secure and at ease. I respect your space, follow all care instructions closely, and provide dependable, loving companionship while you’re away. My goal in both settings is to create a steady, comforting experience where pets feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for.
