“Brooke did such a great job with Dora. She literally treated her like one of her own even though she can be a handful and a lot needy. I received many updates and pictures so I knew she was in good hands. I love that Dora fit right in and adapted very well. I look forward to booking with Brooke again.”
“I don’t know what we would do without Karen & Delbert. They are Brandon’s second parents! He gets so excited when we ask him if he wants to go see Karen, Delbert & Bairn. Do not hesitate to give them a call to care for your pet(s). They are absolutely the best of the best!”

“My shy little doggy was very happy at this house. A family environment that made her feel at home. I don’t leave her often but this nervous doggy dad could not have been happier with our experience.”
“Dylan was great! I was very nervous leaving one of my pups as it was her first time being away from us. She did very well and Dylan sent us updates daily. My pups didn’t want to leave when I picked them up! Highly recommend Dylan for your boarding stays.”
“This is our second time booking with Heather and we will absolutely be using her again in the future! My dogs love getting to spend time with her and her pup. She sends lots of pictures and updates to ease our mind while we’re out of town!”

“Our fur baby Goldie had a great time with Emilyn and her husband! We went to SDC for the Christmas lights and she was able to accommodate us on short notice. We appreciated her updates and pictures. If we are ever in Nixa again we will definitely contact her! Thanks Emilyn!”
“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.”
“Molly and her sweet daughter were wonderful with our corgis while they stayed with them for a week. We were at first a bit hesitant to leave them with someone we did not know since it was our first time. However, our dogs immediately warmed up to them upon meeting for the first time prior to booking. Molly communicated well and provided us with updates or any concerns or questions she had. We received cute photos of them playing in the yard and going for a pup cup. Our dogs appeared happy and well cared for upon pick up. We'd happily have Molly care for them again.”
“Jennifer was so great with our pup. She sent constant pictures and updates throughout our pups stay. She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up. We will definitely be using Jennifer again.”

About: Growing up I’ve worked with dog’s and sometimes cat’s whether it’s with family, friends or even my neighbors! From a very young age others have relied on me to give their pet’s the love and attention they deserve. I’m currently working part-time, so I have more than enough time to give your pup attention. I’m available during the weekdays from 7am - 1pm and all day on weekends. I currently have a flexible schedule which gives me time to give your pet the attention they need. I can work most weekdays and I can also work around their routines to help them feel comfortable, and cared for.
“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 :).”
“Courtney and daughter took great care of our puppy Leia. She was with her, in her house or on walks ,virtually the entire time were out of town. She responded quickly in a somewhat of an emergency situation for us. So happy we were able to connect with Courtney. Thanks again!!”

“Kelly is absolutely amazing!! Our pups LOVE when she visits. Our Abby girl can be anxious and not easy or drink but not with Kelly! It's wonderful to know they're loved and taken care of with Kelly.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for my friends and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I have a huge passion for animals and LOVE loving on them! I’ve taken care of of every kind of little pet-from dogs and cats to lizards and rats. I do have little ones in the house but we have taught them from a young age to be very respectful of animals and their space. We also have two Corgis in our household. Both Corgis are very friendly with other dogs but we understand that some owners may be uncomfortable with having new dogs around their furry friend. With this being said, the corgis are used to following my husband’s schedule who works from home during the night so they can easily be separated from your four-legged friends! As a Stay-At-Home-Mom I am able to offer 24-hour care! We do occasionally like to get out for an activity so do let me know in advanced if around the clock care is needed so we can accommodate! We love to take morning walks and would love for your furry friend to join us! If a walk won’t work-we have a giant fenced-in back yard to run around and play in! I am currently a stay-at-home-mom so most of my day is spent in the home following whatever schedule my boys keep me on:) We would love to incorporate your furry friend into our schedule! I am able to crate your dog (if needed) during the night or when I’m away. If a crate is not needed during the night then your furry friend will be allowed to sleep wherever!
“Katelyn took great care of our sweet cat, Yul! She was super communicative and made sure we felt like Yul was in good hands. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for pet care.”
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. Although I’d prefer daytime bookings let me know what you’re needing My dogs eat chicken free food cause our pug is allergic. 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.
About: Running a rescue has provided me the unique ability to work with many different types of dogs. It has provided understanding and experince that can put your mind at ease. I have experience with behavioral dogs, and anxious dogs. Currently able to be flexible, since I work part time with a rescue. I can manage your house as needed for your pets! Located in Marshfield I can travel up to 30 miles. In home services provide your pet with security while you’re gone. They do not have to leave and you can be assured they are well taken care of.
“Breelyn was very kind and professional. Always prompt and texted on the way. Sienna, our cat, seemed perfectly happy and content. Would definitely recommend and hire again ! This was also our first time using Rover- very positive!”
About: I'm excited to be watching dogs again! I also watch entire farms, and many different types of animals.. just ask. Until I get a steady amount of pups per month, I do work outside the home M-F. My home is a TinyHome (12x40 shed conversion) =480 sq ft of play space, and a big yard (now fenced!) and a local park nearby. I've been pet sitting since I was 10. I LOVE dogs! I can administer medication both oral and with a shot under the skin. I ask that the dogs that I sit to be house/potty trained, unless it's a puppy younger than 6 months, and we've chatted about the pups needs. They also need to be able to put a leash on them, without any agression. Snappy or biting dogs aren't a good fit for me or my own dogs. >> I want your pet to be as relaxed and happy as I can make them. I will take any age, and any size dog :) "Exercise is the key to well behaved dogs..a tired puppy is a well behaved puppy" and I can't wait to meet you and your pups! Check out my reviews please! I work away from home currently, but with enough pups visiting, I will transition back to being home full time! When I'm home I incorporate your furbaby into me and my pup's life completely, as if they are one of the family, for the entirety of his/ her stay with me. 🥰🐾
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.
About: I have been taking care of cats my whole life. I now have three that are my whole entire world and would love to start watching yours.I will clean litter, Administer medication if needed play with all the fun toys cats have and even cuddle if they will let me.
About: I’ve own 3 cats in the past, Lana, Goochy and currently Milly. 2 of them were family cats but Milly is my own. I’ve adopted Milly from my sister because she liked me more. I’ve also personally saved my cat Milly’s life about 3 times. True story.
About: I’ve spent a lot of time taking care of cats, and I’ve gotten really comfortable with all the day-to-day things they need. I handle feeding, litter box cleaning, and basic grooming, and I’m good at noticing changes in their behavior. Whether it’s playtime or just hanging out and giving them a calm space, I really enjoy making sure they’re well cared for.
“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: 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.
About: I’ve loved and taken care of cats since I was young, including my own cats at home and cats of neighbors and family friends. I have two of my own cats who are spoiled rotten and I will love your babies like my own! 🐱
“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.”
“I am so grateful for Ara! She did amazing with my young, large dog who can be a handful sometimes. She was very attentive and went above & beyond, making sure all my animals had their needs met & enough attention and love. I appreciate the communication I received as well throughout my trip. Will absolutely be using her again!”
About: I have two dogs of my own and understand the level of care, attention, and trust it takes to look after someone else’s pet. I have experience with both large breeds (including Rottweilers and Labs) as well as small dogs, so I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities! Working as a nurse, I bring an extra level of attentiveness and awareness to pet care. I’m confident in recognizing changes in behavior, monitoring for any concerns, and staying calm in unexpected situations. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority! My schedule varies week to week, as I work three 12-hour shifts. On my days off, I have full flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. On workdays, I’m available for early mornings and evenings. I’m very organized and keep my availability up to date so you can book with confidence. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication in every visit. I follow all care instructions closely and take time to understand each pet’s routine and personality. With my background as a nurse, I’m very observant and attentive, and I’m comfortable monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. I have experience with both large and small breeds and always use safe, secure handling during walks and visits. You can expect regular updates, photos, and dependable care every time.

“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.”

“I’m so happy I found Heather! This transition to Missouri will be more difficult without her. Chloe loved her immediately! I am more than pleased. I’m so thankful. ☺️”
“Sydney is great! I needed a sitter for my new puppy while I’m at work while she gets adjusted, and Sydney has been amazing. Love that my dog gets a chance to socialize with new people, visit with some cats, and get tired out and sleep through the night. Sydney has been a great communicator and very easy to get ahold of, with lots of flexibility with my schedule. Would absolutely recommend her!”
“The best sitter ever!!! I was in a rush to find day care at the last minute and i had to work at 8am the next day. Thank God I found this amazing woman!! This was my first time on rover and my first time getting a doggie day care. She not only stayed in contact with me through the day through phone but also sent pictures and videos to check in with me while I was at work. She was so sweet and great with my Cashmere. I truly appreciate Gretchen and I highly recommend her!! :)”
About: My 14 year old dachshund passed away last spring. I was unsure of jumping right back in so we fostered. Charlie, my dachshund 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! I do not want the responsibility of more than one dog as an owner but 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 always need an appointment prior, it’s hard to say yes in a last minute booking unless I have had the dog prior. 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. Honestly I have never been a dog sitter to anyone professionally. It's always been a family and friends deal for free or trade. 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.
“First time ever leaving my fur babies with a stranger, and I am happy I chose the right person to do so. Courtney and her kids were incredibly helpful and took great care of my 10-year-old Boxer and 13-year-old Plott Hound. They made sure both dogs felt comfortable and at ease. Their home was clean and welcoming, and the kids and toys kept my dogs happy and entertained the whole time. Definitely would go back to Courtney if I am in town again!”
“Bree did a great job with my two needy dogs. We were in the midst of moving and with doors open, movers in and out, and Hoodini living again in the form of a dog, it was best they be some place more peaceful and secure. The second day there were excited to be out the door and off to the car to see Bree! They sat quietly most of the day watching doggy TV, which is what they needed. The dogs obviously liked her, even our shy reluctant one. I definitely taking them to her again! She knew they needed peace and quiet and gave them that.”
“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”
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!
“Super responsive, nice, and great place to drop your dogo off for the day. Sent updates all day. My puppy was tuckered out by the time I picked him up. Thank you Gretchen!”
About: im flexible, reliable, and can do quick notice. i just wanna give our dogs the back yard that they deserve. let me love on yours too. i also offer car rides, for fur babies that love air in their face, while they hang their head out the window! i live for my dogs. they are deservedly spoiled and they actually eat better than i do.my MIL(84) loves to give snuggles and love also i have a fenced backyard and 2 friendly fur babies (a shitzhu and poodle mix) both are 20 pounds and they love to have playdates
“I knew Riley would be loved because Tracy and her husband had previously had a boxer. Riley had a fantastic time and we will definitely take Riley back for daycare. Boxers truly have their own personalities. I was glad they had 2 other dogs because dog socialization is important for Riley.”
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.
“Great with our two dogs! Extremely patient and kind with our very vocal husky mix, and skittish collie. There is plenty of room for dogs to feel safe in their own areas. Will be using again for sitting needs.”
“I am so thankful for Linda!! I was in a bind and needed someone to watch my Mabel fast! The very next day Linda was able to take her in and took very good care of my crazy pup! ❤️”

About: I have loved animals my whole life. I’ve taken care of friend’s, family’s and my own cats and dogs since I was a kid. I’m gentle and patient with all animals and have years of experience with many different cats and dogs. I work part time with a very flexible schedule and mostly from home so I have plenty of time for overnight stays or to check in on a pet multiple times a day! I have a lot of experience dog and cat sitting in others homes and I am very flexible when it comes to working around you and your pets schedules and your house rules.
About: I’ve taken care of two dogs and three cats at one time. I have house sat for two families and have no problem doing it again! I have experience working with big dogs, small dogs, disabled dogs, and have even given medication to dogs in pill form. I am not allergic to cats or dogs and I’m very stern on the animal getting comfortable with me in their own time. I am a stay-at-home wife, so I have all the time in the world. I don't have all the energy in the world though. I go for walks on nice days with my own dog often, but more than that, I can't because of health reasons. In my home, my animals don't have a set schedule or regimen. I go with their ques and roll with their punches. I can follow a schedule to the T if said baby needs one, especially for medications! I treat every animal (even strays) with love and care as if they were my own.
About: Recently relocated to the area. I am a stay at home mom who loves all animals, usually go for walks daily. Love staying active and loves dogs so why not extend my hand to others! Please reach out if there is any way I can be of assistance to help with your pet while you're tending to other activities. Have many years of pet sitting and dog walking under my belt. I also have a 2.5 year old boxer baby with lots of energy that could be a potential play date as well. He is the most kind, gentle, loving pup who would love to play with your pup! My schedule is very flexible. I am currently a stay at home mom so most likely my toddler (3yrs old) will be joining me. He loves animals! I respect others homes as I would my own. Having someone come into your home can be scary so im in constant communication when I'm there and always respect their property.

“Katie is amazing! She came over and helped sooth my new puppy mom anxiety by making sure luna was taken care of, fed, and let out! She stayed to play with luna, which was not necessary, but greatly appreciated!”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a small child but as I’ve gotten older I’ve become extremely interested in the training and grooming side of things. I’ve got experience with dogs ranging from 3 months to as old as 15 years old. I myself go hiking and walking with my dogs (2 year old Australian cattle dog mix) on a daily basis so I’m familiar with regularly exercising dogs. I’ve walked dogs for family members and friends so I’m familiar with walking dogs of all sizes, shapes and temperaments. I’m currently unemployed so I spend more of my time walking and hiking with my personal dogs, I’m very focused on dog training as well. I typically spend about 4-6 hours a day out with my dogs. I’ve been a pet sitter for various family members, sometimes staying with their pets for up to a week. Daily walks, mental stimulation and some training goes a long way for a pup being taken care of by someone else!
About: I have taken care of many kinds of pets ever since I was 10 years old. I have experience giving baths, giving medication, leash walking, post surgery care and scheduled feeding times.

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.

“Regina has saved our tails now on multiple occasions. I recently and regrettably booked with other pet sitting site for a long term sit and found out they weren't fulfilling their responsibilities to walk our dog. I was out of state and felt completely helpless. Regina stepped in when I needed her. My dog loves her and she put me completely at ease during a stressful situation. We love her and couldn't recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve had a deep passion for animals since I could remember. I currently live on my families compound farm where animals take up the majority of my day! Dogs in particular have been a very serious part of my life. The last 3 years I have taken dog training seriously and learned the techniques and canine behavior behind almost every breed. There hasn’t been a dog i’ve met that I haven’t loved! Booking with me will provide your dog with proper care but also socialization to goats, cattle, chickens and lots of new smells (all within the safety your dog needs). Im currently a student at a local college during the fall and spring months and work part time during the summer so I have a lot of free time to tend to your animals! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs in the home to keep your dog company! As well as many open fields to go on long walks and play!

“I don’t know what we would do without Karen & Delbert. They are Brandon’s second parents! He gets so excited when we ask him if he wants to go see Karen, Delbert & Bairn. Do not hesitate to give them a call to care for your pet(s). They are absolutely the best of the best!”
“Addy was so kind and understanding. She took care of my older boxer/German shepherd like she was her own dog. I really appreciated the kindness and care Addy had. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”

“Molly and her sweet daughter were wonderful with our corgis while they stayed with them for a week. We were at first a bit hesitant to leave them with someone we did not know since it was our first time. However, our dogs immediately warmed up to them upon meeting for the first time prior to booking. Molly communicated well and provided us with updates or any concerns or questions she had. We received cute photos of them playing in the yard and going for a pup cup. Our dogs appeared happy and well cared for upon pick up. We'd happily have Molly care for them again.”
“Jennifer was so great with our pup. She sent constant pictures and updates throughout our pups stay. She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up. We will definitely be using Jennifer again.”

About: Growing up I’ve worked with dog’s and sometimes cat’s whether it’s with family, friends or even my neighbors! From a very young age others have relied on me to give their pet’s the love and attention they deserve. I’m currently working part-time, so I have more than enough time to give your pup attention. I’m available during the weekdays from 7am - 1pm and all day on weekends. I currently have a flexible schedule which gives me time to give your pet the attention they need. I can work most weekdays and I can also work around their routines to help them feel comfortable, and cared for.
“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 :).”
“Courtney and daughter took great care of our puppy Leia. She was with her, in her house or on walks ,virtually the entire time were out of town. She responded quickly in a somewhat of an emergency situation for us. So happy we were able to connect with Courtney. Thanks again!!”
“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.”
“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.”
About: Walking, bathing, and hanging out with dogs is some of my favorite downtime activities. Growing up with a dog I learned all the necessary skills to watch over a dog. I even volunteered at the humane society in both the dog and cat area for four years! I am currently a teacher so I work from 7-4pm Monday through Friday, but if you need someone to walk your dog at night or house sit for the weekend or even a week night, I am your person! My husband also works from home so if you’re boarding during the week day he is also here to help out if needed. Whatever you need me to do is what I will follow. I will come to your place as my animals do not take well to strangers. But rest assured I will take great care of your animal, in whatever capacity you need. At our home we two cats that do well with other dogs but tend to ignore them, and one dog who LOVES other dogs so no worries there.
“Lael is the perfect sitter. I know she took really good care of Rio and he had so much fun with her dogs. Will definitely use her again! Her place is absolutely beautiful and peaceful. Perfect place for dogs to roam.”
