“Achilles has stayed with Cathy before, so we felt comfortable leaving him with her. She treats the dogs in her care as if they were her own. This was a longer stay, but she kept us up-to-date with texts and photos. She had another dog staying at the same time, and they made friends, which I think helped a lot. It certainly made us feel better. We will definitely book with Cathy in the future when we need to.”
“Mackenzie was absolutely fantastic especially being patient with me while figuring out the app will definitely use again pups had an amazing time with her and her family.”
“Ashley was wonderful I'm always worried with my dog but he was very content when I came to pick him up. She was even very flexible when I had to adjust my time. Very professional will definitely use again.”
“Absolutely ? % perfect. John, Rachel and the kids are warm and welcoming. They were perfect with our fur baby. I especially loved receiving daily pictures and updates. We will definitely use them again.”
“Sharon and Mike are amazing sitters. We left Zoe (our very nervous Cockapoo) with them for a weekend while we were in town, so we would be close by in case she got herself too worked up. Sharon and Mike loved and cuddled her the whole time. When I arrived to pick her up, she was happy and calm! Thank you Sharon and Mike! We will be booking with you again!”
“Lona and Alan were amazing at watching my baby! They have wonderful ideas and games for mental stimulation. They make sure to get all the details and preferences for caring for your pet, and are on top of sending updates multiple times a day so you don’t worry. I have no doubt for any future trips I’ll take that my dog will be in great hands!”
“Our for babies are always excited to see l Naji and love how she spoils them so much! This time one of our dogs needed medication during his day which is always hard to leave them when they're not feeling 100% but as always Naji was able to help us out and is always great about sending updates with pictures and videos.”
“Patty did a fabulous job of watching our dog, Tucker. We appreciated that she was willing to meet us prior to our stay. She did a great job of providing lots of pictures throughout our trip. Patty made Tucker right at home and he looked so comfortable and well cared for. We would definitely recommend using her and plan to use her for future trips!”
“We could not be any happier that this worked out to have Laura take our baby while we were on vacation. I know Stella had a blast. Laura is amazing . Great communication and pictures and videos of our happy girl. Not only that but she made a blanket for her to take home. I would choose going this route before ever considering boarding at a kennel. Thank you Laura again. We will be definitely be coming back 🥰🥰”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
“This was our fist time boarding our dogs. They did great and loved Joseph. He made them feel comfortable right away. They came back happy and tired. Would definitely recommend Joseph.”
“This was our first time using this service, and I am so glad I found Taylor! We were very hesitant with the idea of leaving our dog with a stranger, but Taylor's reviews and her prompt answers to my numerous questions, we were quickly put us at ease. We received daily updates and pictures, and it was obvious to us that Moose was having the best time and was well cared for. Before we picked him up, I had already reached out to Taylor to rebook with her for an upcoming trip!”

“Robin is a gem. I'm pretty sure our cat, toby, was sorry to see us come home because Robin spoiled him. Seriously, she took the extra steps to ensure that Toby was safe and comfortable while we were away. She played with him and brought special treats from home. She made sure his litter box was cleaned daily and his water was fresh. She updated us daily with photos. I highly recommend Robin and I know we will be using her again.”

“Erin was fantastic with my dog! He loves being outside and Erin has a ton of property for Ollie (my dog) to explore and a pond that he loves to swim in. She’s always watching the dogs so I know he’s safe and in good hands. If you have a dog that likes to be outside or just wants to be loved on then I highly recommend Erin. My dog is very particular about who he trusts and has some separation anxiety but he is so comfortable with her. Erin treats my dog as if he were her own and I couldn’t ask for a better sitter for him.”

“Alaina did us a solid with a short notice daysitting opportunity. We needed someone to watch our two girlz while we were engaged during an out of town trip. She sent us several pictures and two of her sons helped watch the girlz and walked them out to us when we picked up. The boys were very polite and the girlz seemed to like them a lot.”
“Amanda was great, we went and did a visit. The visit went very well and her dog was very friendly and has a large backyard to run in. Amanda was very informative about the daycare that is provided and she would send videos during the day if you wanted.”

About: I have had pets all my life from dogs and cats to gerbils, hamsters and fish. Even as a young child I was primarily responsible for most of the routine daily pet care. I'm a trained CNA with applicable caregiving skills. I also have extensive experience as a shelter volunteer having walked the dog and played with them as well as socializing the cats. I'm currently self employed as a home care aide and wish to take care of animals in between assignments or during days off. I do not have any responsibilities that would interfere with me taking care of your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a yard stake. I live in a townhouse with an open grass backyard. I regularly take my dog to The Liberty, MO Stockdale dog park and can take yours there too if that's your preference. If you wish I can walk your dog as many times per day as you prefer. My neighborhood has paved sidewalks and walking paths that I routinely use to walk my dog daily. I have one cat and one dog and each get along with other cats and dogs very well but should there be any unforeseen issue, I can put your pet in my spare bedroom. I also own a wire dog crate for large dogs. I can crate your pet in your home or my home if you wish me to. I will take care of him or her in whichever way you prefer. I do not crate my dog but I did as a puppy to facilitate his potty training. My dog sleeps with me at night as does my cat sometimes. Both are friendly and well socialized but again, I can put either in a spare room or your pet if necessary. Both my pets are up to date on their vaccinations and they get a monthly pill for flea and tick prevention. I can do everything from long or short walks, taking them outside for potty breaks, administering food or medicine, playtime, etc.
“I cannot recommend Lona & Alan enough! They took such amazing care of my dogs. From the daily updates and photos to their attentive care, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. I will definitely be booking with them again in the future!”
“Gail was very personable and knowledgeable about animal behavior. She handled my dogs with great care and they felt very comfortable with her. I would not hesitate to utilize her services again.”

“My two small Chihuahua mixes absolutely love their time at Mike and Sharon's! We use them mainly for daycare and they usually always have a couple small puppy friends there, so they are exhausted and sleep all night when they get home! We have used them for boarding too and have nothing but praise. If you need a sitter or lower stimulation doggy daycare, Sharon's your girl!”
About: I grew up on a farm when I was little so I know my way around animals. I have an 11 year old morkie named Marley and a 1 1/2 year old German Shorthaired Pointer named Waylon. I love my dog kids as much as I love my human kids! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I occasionally go in the office for 3-4 hours once a week, so I’m home pretty much all the time! I have a fenced in giant yard and doggy door. My fence is only 4 feet tall so let me know if your dog is a jumper. My small morkie is only here part time and keeps to herself and does not usually interact with any other dogs. My GSP is VERY high energy and loves to play and run and is not aggressive at all! He is around other dogs all the time because we take him to dog parks and Bar K quite frequently. I know how crazy I am about my dogs so I will treat yours just the same as I do mine!

“Our family was so fortunate to have had Sierra care for our fur babies! She is punctual, detailed, and exceedingly dependable. It is obvious, through her detailed notes and excellent photos, that Sierra is loving and caring to all of our pets (the photos showed the joy on their faces!). Equally important, Sierra always maintained the highest level of professionalism when walking our dogs, making snap decisions related to weather and other pets along the walking path that were crucial to the safety and well being of our pets. This superior level of care is difficult to find. Thank you, Sierra, for allowing us to travel with peace of mind in knowing that our fur babies were safe and loved.”

“Second time we had Caitlin watch our animals. She is an excellent, thoughtful, and highly efficient individual who makes every effort to complete the tasks at hand and successfully communicate things to keep your mind at ease during travel. I cannot give any higher recommendation and (if possible) you should utilize her services while on vacation to take care of your animals.

About: ABOUT US We are avid animal lovers and have taken care our friends and family's pets for our entire life. Pets are part of your family and you want them cared for as lovingly as you would care for them yourself. We live in Liberty, MO with 3 acres of land, providing lots of room to play as you can see in the pictures. We have two dogs who are great with other dogs, including a Labrador and a little cattle dog mix. Growing up I worked for my father at Captain Creek Ranch, grooming, training, and boarding dogs. This experience coupled with my undeniable love for canines gives you confidence your pups will have a great and safe time at our house. ABOUT OUR SERVICES Our dog sitting services are simple--we treat dogs just as they are our own. This means they are allowed on all the furniture and we do not kennel them (unless you specifically ask for us to). We have no children and live in a smoke free home. We do our best to only watch one family's dogs at a time, but occasionally drop off and pick up times will overlap. However, 99% of the time it will be our two dogs and your dog(s). We feed and take care of the dogs just as you instruct, and separate them from our dogs when feeding time rolls around. When we are gone from the house, we will put your dog in our kitchen/laundry room area where they can roam about and play with toys, sleep in our provided dog bed, and have access to food and water. This area is separated from where our dogs stay when we are gone. In the evening, they will sleep in that same area as well. They will get potty breaks often and will get to go on walks. Lastly, we will update you often with messages and photos! If you at anytime want to check in and see how your pup is doing, send us a message! We want you to enjoy your time away and not stress about your dogs wellbeing. WHAT WE ASK OF OUR CLIENTS 1. If your dog has any habits, please make us aware so we can properly prepare our home for them. 2. We prefer to agree on a drop off and pick up time, and stick to those as much as possible. We will do this closer to your stay, but we do not allow people to come and go as they please. We want to make sure we are home and have your pups belongs gathered so we can have a smooth transition. 3. Please note that we are very flexible with drop off and pick up times, but we ask that if you are dropping off early in the morning you are prompt or notify us if you are running late.

“Achilles has stayed with Cathy before, so we felt comfortable leaving him with her. She treats the dogs in her care as if they were her own. This was a longer stay, but she kept us up-to-date with texts and photos. She had another dog staying at the same time, and they made friends, which I think helped a lot. It certainly made us feel better. We will definitely book with Cathy in the future when we need to.”
“Mackenzie was absolutely fantastic especially being patient with me while figuring out the app will definitely use again pups had an amazing time with her and her family.”
“Ashley was wonderful I'm always worried with my dog but he was very content when I came to pick him up. She was even very flexible when I had to adjust my time. Very professional will definitely use again.”
“Absolutely ? % perfect. John, Rachel and the kids are warm and welcoming. They were perfect with our fur baby. I especially loved receiving daily pictures and updates. We will definitely use them again.”
“Lona and Alan were amazing at watching my baby! They have wonderful ideas and games for mental stimulation. They make sure to get all the details and preferences for caring for your pet, and are on top of sending updates multiple times a day so you don’t worry. I have no doubt for any future trips I’ll take that my dog will be in great hands!”
“Our for babies are always excited to see l Naji and love how she spoils them so much! This time one of our dogs needed medication during his day which is always hard to leave them when they're not feeling 100% but as always Naji was able to help us out and is always great about sending updates with pictures and videos.”
“We could not be any happier that this worked out to have Laura take our baby while we were on vacation. I know Stella had a blast. Laura is amazing . Great communication and pictures and videos of our happy girl. Not only that but she made a blanket for her to take home. I would choose going this route before ever considering boarding at a kennel. Thank you Laura again. We will be definitely be coming back 🥰🥰”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
“This was our fist time boarding our dogs. They did great and loved Joseph. He made them feel comfortable right away. They came back happy and tired. Would definitely recommend Joseph.”
“This was our first time using this service, and I am so glad I found Taylor! We were very hesitant with the idea of leaving our dog with a stranger, but Taylor's reviews and her prompt answers to my numerous questions, we were quickly put us at ease. We received daily updates and pictures, and it was obvious to us that Moose was having the best time and was well cared for. Before we picked him up, I had already reached out to Taylor to rebook with her for an upcoming trip!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10 years old, including family pet care, professional pet care and personal pet care. I am experienced in dog walking, dog boarding, in home pet sitting and diabetic pets/sick pets. I have reliable transportation and am available at all times to give your pet the care they need! I am committed to being available at all times including weekends and evenings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it doesn’t feel like a task, it’s something I intentionally build into my schedule to make sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. This includes making sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of affection and attention. I love animals, so I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, playing, going for walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, and I follow any specific instructions the owner provides to ensure their pet feels happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a diabetic dog owner myself I am committed to giving your pet the best care I can!
“Stevie was great! She worked with our schedule for dropping off and picking up. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our furry family member was in good hands.”
“Simon had the best time with Rebecca. She sent lots of pictures and updates, to let us know what a fun time he was having. We will definitely be using her for all future trips. She was a absolute joy to work with”
“Laurie has been doing drop-in visits for us for a while but recently took my dog for several nights of boarding. JoJo is a senior dog with some anxiety that can require extra attention (and a healthy dose of patience). Laurie communicated with me throughout the stay about how things were going, and even threw in some additional remedies of her own to help JoJo get settled in. You can tell she is invested in your pet's well being and provides quality care.”
