“We were very happy to meet Steven and Karin. This was our first time boarding Ted with them, and Steven offered a Meet & Greet to make sure we were a good fit. From the start, they were extremely friendly and made Ted feel comfortable. They also have a very sweet, well-behaved dog who got along great with Ted. Ted came home happy and completely exhausted, which is rare for him! We highly recommend them and will definitely book again.”

“Shania took great care of my dog while I was away for a few days. She was kind and easy to communicate with, and my dog seemed very happy and relaxed when I got back. I could tell she really loves animals and treated my dog like her own. I’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Chelsea was great! She was prompt at answering any questions or concerns we had. Our pups had a great time and we really loved the photos and updates she provided during their stay.”
“Nina was amazing. Tucker had a lot of fun with her. I’m sure he enjoyed a lot playing with her big and sweet dogs. She sent me pictures and was very responsive. And besides that he got home worn out, meaning that he burned a lot of his energy.”
“Donovan was very accommodating and understanding with our pit bull! His place was very clean and seemed like a safe place for our boy. We were even running behind on our pickup time and he was very understanding and flexible. As well as sending us photo updates. Will be using him again in the future :)”

About: I have owned dogs before I could even read. I have always loved dogs and have cared for a large variety of dogs, whether that be age, size, gender, or breed. I have such a love for dogs, I’ve considered becoming a dog trainer ever since I was a child. I’m not currently working, so I’m very flexible with reservations. Just let me know ahead of time and I can be very flexible with you! I remain consistent in their daily routines, especially for potty breaks. I am a huge advocate for positive reinforcement training, so I will make sure the dogs are recognized for doing good.

“Makenzie dropped in to check on our cats while we were gone on vacation. She did a great job! She sent us pictures of them and made sure they had everything they needed while we were away. I would not hesitate to have her take care of any of our animals in the future!”
“Sarah was extremely considerate when looking after my kitties! I loved getting photos everyday and her prompt and clear communication. She even went above and beyond by bringing my packages inside. 100% recommend her.”
“Thanks Aisha, appreciate you checking in on our kitty and spending time here with her. She is pretty independent, doesn't need a lot of attention, and loves her heating pad when the house gets cool while we are gone. Plus honestly, she has been the best of all the sitters we've hired from Rover.com.”
“Our kitty, CoCo, loves attention and loves all people. Makayla took great care of her and kept us updated on her visits. Great to see CoCo in the images and video she shared. Makayla was easy to contact and quickly responded. Her time was greatly appreciated. Thanks”

“Teigan is so so great! As someone that works early mornings at Freeman Hospital, it’s nearly impossible to find somewhere that offers the hours that she does. She is very kind and flexible, and Knox gets so excited to go see her and play with his friends! We will definitely be repeat clients and I’ve already recommended her to some of coworkers that have the same struggles with finding someone reliable and with hours that accommodate the crazy schedule of healthcare workers.”
“Julie and Jensen were so very kind and effective for our puppy’s first sleepover. We will be back for many times to come. Thank you for having a safe, cozy place for him. And the pictures were a nice touch! I highly recommend!”
About: I have had dogs all my life but have been dog sitting since I was 16 years old for neighbors, family and friends. Me and my wife have a home in Joplin missouri with a huge privacy fenced back yard. Rest assured your pets will have plenty of space for play and relaxing. I am photographer and a stay at home dad! This gives me the opportunity to be home all day for plenty of play and potty breaks. Our son is one year old but is never unsupervised around any pets. Our fenced in yard is very spacious and we have gated areas in our home to separate dogs from each other if needed. We have two dogs of our own Argyle & Daisy who are very friendly and love to play. They are also kept up to date on all vaccinations and are treated for fleas using Seresto collars. We do not have any issues with bugs of any kind and are a non smoking home. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds in our home and have comfy spaces everywhere. Be prepared for plenty of update pictures! We do not use pesticides or weed killer of any kind and our yard is kept chemical free. We also keep water indoors to prevent bacteria from building up. We refresh water as needed.
“Stephanie and her family were absolutely wonderful. She sent frequent updates and photos throughout the day, took my pup on a long walk, and spent lots of time playing with him. From the photos, it was clear he was having an amazing time and was very well cared for. I would 100% recommend Stephanie and will happily book with her again. Thank you so much, Stephanie!”
About: I have personally walked miles and miles with my own, very energetic Weimer. I had Cooper (my Weimer) for 14 years and we walked literally every single day, rain, snow, cold etc. We now have our 2nd Weimer and back at it again; love the exercise they provide for us!! I often walk my sisters dogs when she can’t due to health issues. I’m ready, and have my walking shoes on! I’m retired now and walking my dog keeps me moving and I love it! I’m ready to add additional exercise for your dogs too! Let’s go! We have a fenced yard and one 6 year old friendly Weimer. We keep our dog inside but playtime occurs outdoors on great summer days

“Sarah was really friendly to meet and great at communicating when we were away. She sent us pictures of the pets. We felt good that someone was dropping by the house while we were gone. Additionally, we loved that our dogs were getting worn out so they didn't focus their energies on the couch! I will most definitely be contacting Sarah again when we travel.”
About: Hi guys! I've been around cats and dogs, and taking care of them; walking, bathing, dog sitting, play dates, etc., since I was young. I have three animals myself, two dogs and a cat; I've had my fur baby Lucy for 14 years now, so I do have some experience with senior dogs as well. I also have always been the go to for friends and family when they need someone to care for their babies. I know most people are pretty divided on the "dog person" vs. "cat person", but I personally love both equally! I'm currently a stay at home mom, so my schedule is fairly open, outside of nap times. Because of this, I will easily be able to accept no notice requests. However, the more of a heads up the better of course! I personally have three fur babies myself; one large breed dog (60+ lbs), an overgrown weiner dog (my senior girl), and a selective cat. They are all up to date on vaccinations, as well as spayed/neutered. My dachshund is very friendly with all animals; large and small, but I don't plan on introducing my animals to any animals that I am trusted to care for.
About: I have helped rescue dogs and cats for years. I currently have 3 rescues that keep my life interesting. I look forward to caring for your fur babies as I would my own! I am retired so I have the flexibility to care for your babies on the schedule that works best for you. When you are away they deserve to have grandpa come to visit. I currently have my 3 rescue pups I promise to care for yours as if they were my own. I believe in lots of pictures as well. I have three rescues that are wonderful loving dogs but having more stay at my home is not an option at the time. That being said I am retired so I am very flexible in coming to your home for drop in visits, dog walking and possibly staying in your home to take care of your fur babies. I am a retired CEO of a local non-profit so I can be trusted to respect your home and pets.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have three of my own, so caring for them is a big part of my everyday life.

Whether your pup loves to play, go on walks, or just relax and cuddle, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own because I know they’re family. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m self-employed, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for and provide them with the attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible because I know that helps them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (if needed), potty breaks, and any special preferences. I treat every home with the utmost respect by keeping it clean, locking doors, and making sure your pet is always safe and supervised. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care while making your pet feel happy, safe, and at home.

The only thing I would mention is that I had assumed she was watching them at her house when I booked her, but it was really where she is a groomer, so the dogs were kept in a kennel except during play & potty breaks. There were several other animals there. You could tell Ashley loves animals & they did great in her care.”

From the meet and greet I could tell she knew so much about dogs and how to help them adjust to new environments, people, places, and other animals. She has such a sweet demeanor which is great for dogs who are out of their normal routine. We would highly recommend Samantha and her services to anyone looking for loving care for their fur baby.”
