“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!”
“Emily and her family did an outstanding job watching our Sophie. We received photos and updates on how things were going all through our trip, which we loved. We will definitely be using Emily’s service's again. She is very kind and easy to work with. We recommend you contact emily to watch your pet.”
“Mike was kind and communicated well with pictures and videos which we appreciated. We needed a last minute sitter for our 2 dogs, one who needed meds and Mike did a great job. We will definitely use him again. Thank you for taking good care of Pepper and Fergie.”
“We decided to stay over another day, Kind of a spontaneous decision, And of course we didn't have accommodations for our pets. So, we began calling around, also leaving messages through The Rover app, and asking different boarding availabilitys about having last minute booking. Not too many people responded. Janet, though, to my surprise, responded with a rapid message. I was surprised becaus in her brief bio and what some of her preferences were of clients, like a 7-Day meet and greet I was thinking like" she's she's definitely got her ways and she's not going to call me back !" Boom!! We had a booked appointment and our pets at our place, she was a little busy when we first contacted her which had a 1-hour delay which was fine, not too longer than an hour and a half after we contacted her. And she lives in West Branson not Springfield,BTW. SUPER KIND BIG HEART!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND”
“This is the first time I have used Rover, with absolutely no complaints. Todd was excellent with Luna, and I feel she was well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to board Luna with Todd again.”
“Lily had a great time! Sarah is very attentive to her pet clients. Plenty of communication and pictures. This is the first time Lily has been at a sitter, so we were worried, but Lily took immediately to Sarah. If we are back in Branson and need a sitter, we would contact her. 5 stars well deserved!”
“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!”
“Steve is gentleman, very kind and was really great in all respects. He proactively reached out before our meetup for any specific needs and to offer to meet me for a more convenient drop off. Our dog is a really sweet but busy guy and he requires an activity or can get squirrelly. He was so calm when I picked him up and clearly was exercised well the entire visit with Steve.”
“Rowan was very good with Gypsy. She can take a little while to get used to new people- he was very good with her. He sent pictures and let us know how she was doing all week. She got a lot of play time and was having fun the whole time. We'll definitely be booking with him again!”
About: I love animals. Super excited to work with you and your fur baby. Working with animals is a passion for me. Animals and I have a connection that makes them feel comfortable and at home. Of course it also entertains me in the mean time. I currently have a puppy that’s a year and a half that lives with me and my Husband. I also have a husky that's 4 yrs old. I grew up around animals and it’s always a pleasure to be able to work with your fur baby. As far as special skills, I’m able to maintain control of the dog on walks as well as in home while providing the upmost care for your baby. Looking forward to meet you and your furry family. My schedule varies but I usually work anywhere from 11am to midnight, depending on my shift that day. I am a bartender/server. I am beyond flexible for you and your furry kids, I do have the option to request off at least a week ahead so I can make time for your babies. I am very active and loving. I will spend extra quality time with your furry baby to make sure they are comfortable during my time with them.
“Emma was fantastic with our pups! She sent us lots of “pupdates” with pics. Took the girls on several walks, on outings to the park and even tried to teach them tricks. She went above and beyond with everything. I couldn’t have asked for a better first time Rover experience.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Olivia was the most welcoming boarder! My dog even had a hard time saying bye to her. She provided photos and messages on a semi daily basis and was available for any inquiries I had. I will definitely book Olivia for our next boarding need.”
“Our dog had a great time playing with Megan’s dogs and staying with her. When we came to pick him up, he didn’t even want to leave! She was sensitive to the fact that he is older and took good care of him. We are thankful to find her and her husband!”
“Kim went above and beyond to accommodate drop off time. Our pup, Thorin, was comfortable enough to eat his food around Kim and her family. It was the first time we've used Rover and the bar is set high. Thank you, Kim and family!!! We will be keeping her in mind when we need petsitting again.”

“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.”
About: Growing up with two dogs of my own, I learned early on that pets aren't just animals, they are part of the family. My lifelong love for dogs and animals is what inspired me to start providing dedicated pet care. Over the years, I have built experience caring for dogs of various shape, size, and personality. Whether your furry friend is a tiny companion or a large breed, they will be in safe, joyful, and loving hands with me. I am new to the Branson area, and I am looking for more ways to be active and work additionally part-time. I love being around dogs, and I am excited to make it a part of my normal routine. I am very considerate and organized. I will treat your home and pet like it is my own. I will happily perform my service and respect your time and space while doing so.
About: I have had years of experience with cats. Some of my own when I was younger and some that I have cared for through friends and family. I understand that cats can be particular about their environment and need someone who is mindful of their preferences.
About: I've had cats my whole life, growing up my family rescued many stray cats so I know how to handle them well! And of course making sure their litter is clean and always have water and food
“KJ was great!! I'm very satisfied with her care of my cat Bandit. All the updates and photos were very helpful for my peace of mind knowing how happy and spoiled she was when I was away. I will definitely look to KJ when I need a sitter again.”
About: Reliable and have always had an animal magnetism. I love to get to know the animals and whatever their specific needs are to help make them feel most comfortable. I’m part time at the moment, so, I’ll have ample time to spend with your pup! I can always work out a time to make it work for you. I have a lot of experience with dogs and can assure you that all of your pets needs will be more than taken care of. Please feel free to ask any questions.
About: I have had dogs, cats, geckos, rodents, snakes, & everything in between throughout my life, but certainly classify myself as a dog-lover! We bred English Pointers growing up in the Ozarks, had a Jack Russell as my own personal pet as a boy, had other dogs in the family growing up, and fostered and dog-sat during COVID! Excited to spend time with your pet! I left my corporate job last year & am currently building a free-lance career and locking in a GMAT score. I am 100% available & flexible- any day of the week and at any time! Currently, I cannot board a pet at my home as our landlord does not allow pets. I am available for sitting at the client home, check-ins, and walks! I actively work with leash-training, and if you would like for me to focus on it with your pet, please ask! I do not charge any extra for this but appreciate tips!
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.
“Smitty seemed really well loved by Sarah while we were out of town! I appreciated the thorough reports and the pictures to see how my big was doing. I will definitely be using her services again.”
About: I’ve been a cat person for as long as I can remember and have been caring for my own cats since I was 10! I’ve gotten plenty of hands-on experience with all the fun (and sometimes very specific) things that come with being a cat parent, from administering pill and liquid medications to cleaning all kinds of litter boxes. I know every cat has their own unique personality, quirks, and routines, and I love getting to know them on their terms. Whether your cat is a professional cuddler, a playful troublemaker, or a little more independent, I’m happy to give them the love, patience, and attention they need! 🐱💕
About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and birds since I was a teenager. I love them all and will go the extra mile to care for them. I will walk them, play with them, bathe them, and feed them. I'm available 7 days a week, but will only care for one families pets at a time, so first come first served. I take last minute same day requests. I will watch your pets in my home or yours. I don't have any of my own pets right now so yours will get all of my attention and care.
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’m a dedicated cat lover with three kitties of my own, so I truly understand all the little quirks that make each cat unique, from playful zoomies to quiet, independent vibes. I have hands on experience with medication administration, post-surgical care, and even bottle feeding kittens, which has taught me a lot of patience, gentleness, and attention to detail. I’m comfortable keeping litter boxes fresh and creating a clean, cozy, low-stress environment your cat will feel safe in. I’ve also leash-walked cats for some safe outdoor exploring, so I’m open to working with both curious adventurers and homebody snugglers. I pay so much attention to each cat’s personality; I’ll match their energy, whether that means playtime, cuddles, or simply giving them their space while still making sure they feel cared for and loved.
“Byron is an absolute gem. He took phenomenal care of our newfie and goldendoodle. He was also extremely helpful with a number of unexpected “surprises” (not all dog related) that occurred while we were gone. Overall, Byron’s care, effort and communication was above and beyond our expectations. You’d be crazy not to book him.”

“Jason and his wife are such wonderful people. They watched my 4 year old silken windhound girl on short notice and did so much to ease my anxious dog mom brain, sending me lots and lots of updates and photos throughout the day. I cannot stress to you how much I do not let just anyone watch my girl, but I instantly felt at ease the moment we stepped foot into their house to drop my girl off. They made her part of the family, even giving her a plate for dinner and putting her in charge of clean up duty during holiday tamale making time! (They asked to make sure she had no food allergies first!) My girl is very shy and has a lot of separation anxiety and Jason and his wife were so thoughtful and attentive with getting her comfortable being away from her family. She was snuggled up with them on the couch within an hour of us leaving! I HIGHLY recommend Jason for all your pet sitting needs and I will absolutely be using him again next time we're in Branson!”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about Liza and her care for my dogs! I booked her super last minute the night before we needed her and she was more than accommodating and kind! We planned last minute to go to SDC today and didn’t have care for our dogs as we aren’t from the area! I found Liza ok this website and she she took exceptional care of them! Getting them out for lots of run and play time! My dogs weren’t nervous with her at all and I got lots of photos of them playing and napping which really helped this fur-mommas nerves! I am so happy to have connected with her! When we come back for SDC or any shows I will book her for my babies so they can have a great time too! If your in the area visiting and need daycare or overnight, I would highly recommend her care! It is nothing shy of fantastic!”
“She took amazing care of our puppy! We had only had him a couple of days and were on vacation and she took on a puppy very well! Very impressed with her service. She also was amazing at answering all of our questions we had! Highly recommend”
“We used Emily for the first time we have had to leave our doggo with anyone. She was wonderful and made it so easy for us to enjoy our day knowing our girl was with someone so caring. Would definitely recommend Emily to anyone.”
“I booked Nancy for daycare so I could have a Mom’s day out. Nancy did an amazing job with my German Shepherd, Otto. Otto was new to socializing with other dogs and she was so patient and allowed him to interact with her sweet little dog, Bailey. She gave Otto lots of attention and walks and sent picture updates to me. Her love of animals shines through. He was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. Nancy gave me detailed feedback about Otto’s day that was so helpful for me. I’m so grateful to have found Nancy and highly recommend her to give your dog the TLC he/shedeserves and peace of mind you need when leaving your fur baby.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Rowan took wonderful care of my dog Hana. He was very attentive, communicative, and it was clear he loved what he did. Hana always came home happy and well cared for, which gave me great peace of mind. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him.”
“Cortney was very friendly, and she took great care of our two energetic dogs! Her place is clean and she was able to care for multiple dogs very well. She communicated well and promptly returned messages and also sent multiple pictures and a video. Our pups were happy and relaxed when we picked them up.”
“Mickayla was amazing with my dog. She was very accommodating to my drop off and pick up times, sent many photos of my dog having a fantastic time and was wonderful to communicate with. Would recommend to anyone!”
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.

“Chante was wonderful! She took great care of my pups and cat while my husband and I were in town visiting in our RV. She was incredibly accommodating to our crazy schedule and we so appreciate her taking care of our fur babies while we were enjoying Branson.”
About: I have cared for and loved my two small, senior dogs for many years. They are now 14 years old. I adopted them when they were about 2 years old. I enjoy taking them for walks, working with them on basic commands, and just snuggling with them. They are truly a big part of our little family. I have also cared for my mom's Yorkie when she needed extra help. I'd been an elementary teacher for 20 years. I'm dependable, patient, dedicated, and more than willing to help you and your pup in maintaining your routines. I know how important daily exercise, structure, and mental stimulation is for dogs; and I understand that they need people and companionship, too. Now that our dogs are getting older, I continue to adapt to meet their needs. I just really enjoy taking care of them! I also know what it's like to need to depend on others for help. That's why I want to provide this service to other dog owners like you! I hope to find dog owners who I can help on a regular basis or as needed. I understand the importance of finding a reliable person who will give excellent one-on-one attention that your pup deserves. I offer high-quality drop-in visits and dog walking at your home only. Many dogs feel most relaxed in their own space, and this lets me provide personalized, one-on-one care. I currently do not provide boarding or host dogs at my house.

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.
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.

About: Hi pet parents! I’m Marci, and I’ve been house and pet sitting for over 12 years with excellent references available upon request. I grew up in Southern Missouri around a wide variety of animals, which gave me early hands-on experience with training and daily care. Professionally, I’ve worked in both exotic and domestic animal environments, including a zoo setting caring for livestock (such as alpacas, ponies, and young camels) and aviary birds, as well as a high-volume dog boarding/daycare facility in Phoenix, AZ where I worked with 150+ dogs daily. This gave me a strong understanding of dog behavior, group dynamics, and handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m confident with drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and maintaining your pet’s routine exactly as needed—including feeding, exercise, medication, and companionship. I especially enjoy walks, enrichment, and positive reinforcement training for puppies and energetic dogs, always prioritizing safety, structure, and calm, happy behavior. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every home and pet with respect and care as if they were my own. I have reliable transportation and auto insurance for peace of mind. I currently live in Branson, Missouri and am a stay at home mom/photographer. My daughter is very gentle, calm, and accustomed to being around animals. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets (or home) and give you peace of mind while you’re away. My daily and weekly schedule is highly flexible and I am available for pet and home care nearly always. If for some reason I am I available my calendar should reflect that - or just ask because I might be available anyway. I am very mindful and cautious, especially when it comes to animals and children. In my home there are no small objects or sharp objects that could harm or be cause for choking hazards. I don’t feed your pet extra treats that aren’t approved by you, and I keep them safe by making sure doors are closed so they don’t run off.
About: Pets are part of the family and should be treated as so! I have spent more than 9 years raising pups of my own. From training, exercising, and other pet needs, its essential to provide the best care possible. I keep the best interest of the pup at heart and will always go the extra mile to ensure the safety and happiness of all animals. Your loyal family member deserves the upmost level of care, respect, and happiness possible! I’m currently working part-time and will have plenty of time to play and care for your pet! I am open to boarding, drop-ins, and more! I have a privacy-fenced in yard with plenty of room to roam and a friendly pup to play with. I can crate and walk yours as needed too!
“Sarah did great with our dog while we were enjoying Silver Dollar City. We used her dog walking services in our campground. Our time in the park was more enjoyable knowing our dog was in good hands. Sarah was easy to communicate with and she left us great feedback. Would recommend her services to others.”

About: I have lifelong, hands on experience caring for animals and specialize in supporting pets through every stage of life. I currently have a puppy (toy Aussiedoodle), so I’m actively experienced in potty training and reinforcing foundational commands like sit, stay, and come with consistency and patience. I also have extensive experience with senior dogs. I cared for my own from age 3 through 17, which gave me a deep understanding of advanced care needs such as medication administration, bathing, mobility support, doggy diaper care, and hand-feeding. I’m comfortable navigating the sensitivities that can come with new people and aging, including moments of discomfort or food related aggression, and always handle pets with a calm, patient approach. I currently care for two dogs and three cats, which keeps me very in tune with different temperaments, routines, and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to read animal behavior, adjust my care style accordingly, and provide steady, patient, and attentive care that helps pets feel safe and loved. My friends and family always call me for pet sitting needs due to my loving and bubbly personality and strong passion and dedication for animals. Pet care fits into my routine very naturally and I genuinely enjoy making time for it. At the moment, I have open availability 7 days a week, which allows me to be flexible and responsive for visits, walks, or other activities. I am currently in the process of interviewing for part-time positions, but I remain committed to prioritizing pet care and can easily accommodate visits before or after work shifts. I’m very flexible and happy to work around what’s best for each pet’s routine. I provide care in a calm, attentive, and safety-focused way that helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. When I’m in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely so pets can stay in their familiar environment with minimal stress. I pay close attention to instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs, and I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are handled carefully at all times. I also take time to build trust with each pet at their own pace—whether that means a gentle introduction, giving them space if they’re shy, or engaging with play and affection once they’re comfortable. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while keeping owners fully informed and at ease throughout the visit. I also have two dogs of my own if your fur baby is ever needing a friend. 💛
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.

“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!”
“Mike was kind and communicated well with pictures and videos which we appreciated. We needed a last minute sitter for our 2 dogs, one who needed meds and Mike did a great job. We will definitely use him again. Thank you for taking good care of Pepper and Fergie.”
“This is the first time I have used Rover, with absolutely no complaints. Todd was excellent with Luna, and I feel she was well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to board Luna with Todd again.”
“Lily had a great time! Sarah is very attentive to her pet clients. Plenty of communication and pictures. This is the first time Lily has been at a sitter, so we were worried, but Lily took immediately to Sarah. If we are back in Branson and need a sitter, we would contact her. 5 stars well deserved!”
“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!”
“Steve is gentleman, very kind and was really great in all respects. He proactively reached out before our meetup for any specific needs and to offer to meet me for a more convenient drop off. Our dog is a really sweet but busy guy and he requires an activity or can get squirrelly. He was so calm when I picked him up and clearly was exercised well the entire visit with Steve.”
“Rowan was very good with Gypsy. She can take a little while to get used to new people- he was very good with her. He sent pictures and let us know how she was doing all week. She got a lot of play time and was having fun the whole time. We'll definitely be booking with him again!”
About: I love animals. Super excited to work with you and your fur baby. Working with animals is a passion for me. Animals and I have a connection that makes them feel comfortable and at home. Of course it also entertains me in the mean time. I currently have a puppy that’s a year and a half that lives with me and my Husband. I also have a husky that's 4 yrs old. I grew up around animals and it’s always a pleasure to be able to work with your fur baby. As far as special skills, I’m able to maintain control of the dog on walks as well as in home while providing the upmost care for your baby. Looking forward to meet you and your furry family. My schedule varies but I usually work anywhere from 11am to midnight, depending on my shift that day. I am a bartender/server. I am beyond flexible for you and your furry kids, I do have the option to request off at least a week ahead so I can make time for your babies. I am very active and loving. I will spend extra quality time with your furry baby to make sure they are comfortable during my time with them.
“Emma was fantastic with our pups! She sent us lots of “pupdates” with pics. Took the girls on several walks, on outings to the park and even tried to teach them tricks. She went above and beyond with everything. I couldn’t have asked for a better first time Rover experience.”
“Our dog had a great time playing with Megan’s dogs and staying with her. When we came to pick him up, he didn’t even want to leave! She was sensitive to the fact that he is older and took good care of him. We are thankful to find her and her husband!”
“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!”
About: Hi pet parents! I’m Marci, and I’ve been house and pet sitting for over 12 years with excellent references available upon request. I grew up in Southern Missouri around a wide variety of animals, which gave me early hands-on experience with training and daily care. Professionally, I’ve worked in both exotic and domestic animal environments, including a zoo setting caring for livestock (such as alpacas, ponies, and young camels) and aviary birds, as well as a high-volume dog boarding/daycare facility in Phoenix, AZ where I worked with 150+ dogs daily. This gave me a strong understanding of dog behavior, group dynamics, and handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m confident with drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and maintaining your pet’s routine exactly as needed—including feeding, exercise, medication, and companionship. I especially enjoy walks, enrichment, and positive reinforcement training for puppies and energetic dogs, always prioritizing safety, structure, and calm, happy behavior. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every home and pet with respect and care as if they were my own. I have reliable transportation and auto insurance for peace of mind. I currently live in Branson, Missouri and am a stay at home mom/photographer. My daughter is very gentle, calm, and accustomed to being around animals. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets (or home) and give you peace of mind while you’re away. My daily and weekly schedule is highly flexible and I am available for pet and home care nearly always. If for some reason I am I available my calendar should reflect that - or just ask because I might be available anyway. I am very mindful and cautious, especially when it comes to animals and children. In my home there are no small objects or sharp objects that could harm or be cause for choking hazards. I don’t feed your pet extra treats that aren’t approved by you, and I keep them safe by making sure doors are closed so they don’t run off.
“Cortney and her family are amazing and took wonderful care of Ri! There was great communication including messages, photos and videos. Ri was happy with his stay and to meet his new friends!”
“Mickayla is awesome! I knew from the time we met that we are in good hands! This was the first time I have left her with someone, I could not be more pleased! I loved the pictures she took and told me about Gracie’s day. I can tell she loves animals, and I am so thankful and will definitely pick her when I need someone to care for my pup.”

“I boarded my two dogs with Allison in her home: one is a 16 year old chihuahua with a prolapsed trachea and one is a 4 yr old cattle dog who warms up slowly. Allison is amazing. She sent updates and photos, which showed my dogs comfortable and warming to her. I tried boarding at a facility and didn’t like the idea of them in kennels most of every day; I absolutely recommend this alternative and especially Allison. I will definitely seek her services in the future and I feel like my dogs actually made a new friend. They were happy and relaxed when they came back to me. 100 percent happy with and highly recommend her services.”
