About: After years of specialized transport with Mother Nature's Express, I am bringing that same USDA-certified level of safety and care to Mother Nature’s Boarding—a dedicated sanctuary for your furbabies. Professional Pedigree & Expert Care: I am not just a pet lover; I am a career animal professional with a decade of high-stakes experience. My background as a retired USDA-certified animal transporter means I have spent years safely navigating the logistics of animal behavior and safety across the country. I’ve handled animals of all temperaments and sizes, ensuring their health and security while traveling state-to-state and staying in pet-friendly luxury environments. Your furbaby's safety is my absolute priority. I am Red Cross Animal CPR certified, and my home is run with the precision and cleanliness of a professional facility, but with the heart of a dedicated stay-at-home parent. The Boutique Environment: Because I am home 24/7, your dog receives constant companionship and expert monitoring. My specialized setup includes: A dedicated "Guest Suite" located upstairs with me, completely separate from my personal pets to ensure a zero-stress transition. Safety-First Rotations: Utilizing my professional handling skills to manage pack dynamics, ensuring every guest feels like the "only" dog in the room. Expert Medical Oversight: Comfortable and experienced in administering medications and managing strict health protocols. A Lifetime of Devotion: My life has been defined by the bond between humans and animals. While I have over 12 years of adult experience managing my own multi-pet household—including dogs and cats—my journey actually began 25 years ago when I welcomed my first cat at age four, followed by a trio of small-breed dogs just two years later. I grew up learning the unique nuances of small-breed personalities, which is why I now specialize in providing a "big-dog-free" sanctuary for your little ones. As a career animal professional, pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it's the center of it. My schedule is designed to provide 24/7 supervision and companionship for my guest dogs. Because I am home full-time, I can maintain strict, consistent schedules for feeding, potty breaks, and medications that mimic your furbaby's home environment perfectly. My week is built around 'Restful Rotations.' While my mornings and evenings are for structured care, the daytime is filled with enrichment and one-on-one attention in our dedicated upstairs boutique area. This setup allows me to give your pet the high-touch care they deserve without the chaos of a traditional kennel. I care for every guest with the same expert precision I used as a USDA-certified animal transporter. My home's layout has been designed for maximum safety: all guest dogs enjoy the entire main/upstairs floor as their private 'boutique' sanctuary, completely separate from my personal pets who reside in their own personal basement suite while guests are here. Safety is my absolute priority. I utilize: Rotation-Based Exercise: I rotate my own dogs before guests enter the fully fenced backyard, ensuring a stress-free environment. The Double-Leash Rule: For front-yard strolls, I strictly follow the USDA safety standard of two points of contact (harness and collar) to ensure your pet is 100% secure at all times. Crated Security: To prevent nighttime scuffles and ensure a restful sleep, all guests sleep in their own individual, cozy crates with fresh water and orthopedic bedding. (The same protocol follows for feeding times to ensure absolute safety while eating) Medical Peace of Mind: Being certified in Animal CPR, I am highly experienced in monitoring health and administering specialized care.
About: I've been training and taking care of dogs for 33 years. I had a couple childhood pets then when I was 18 I adopted and trained a dog that stayed with my family for 15 years. I also had a Labrador who made it to 13 and my current old man puppy is 13. I've been with my husband for 20 years. We LOVE dogs of all ages and sizes. I'm a stay at home mom to my geriatric dog. We get up around 6am, go outside for a bit, come in and get breakfast, then lounge while I clean. Lunchtime we go out again, have healthy snacks like carrots, then play in the fenced in yard or the living room depending on weather and temperature. Late afternoon and evening we wind down and get ready for dinner. I have a fenced in yard, a friendly old dog, tiled floors, comfortable furniture that they're allowed on, and air vents that come from the floors (dogs love to lay on them). There is security on my home and absolutely nobody but delivery people come here during the day.

“Elaine was a great sitter for our two dogs. She sent pics and updates everyday. Will definitely have Elaine watch our dogs again as we felt they were in good hands with someone who truly cared about them.”

“Damonte was fantastic. Sent photos and videos of our little Ace. It’s comforting to know someone can take care of your furry friend like you would. Definitely recommend.”

“Abigail was fantastic with our Great Dane pongo, she kept us updated and was super flexible with pickup times for me! Absolutely will be getting ahold of her again for future stays!”

“Shannon is excellent at communication! She sent lots of pictures of my pup having a blast at her house (daily walks, playing ball, etc.). She loves dogs and genuinely enjoys taking care of them. I would definitely let her watch my dog again in the future.”

“Our pup can be very nervous, especially in new places, but Rhiannon and Rachel did such a good job making him immediately comfortable in their space while taking care of him!”

“I freaking love Alex!!!!! She is always reliable, goes above and beyond, and makes my work travel weeks so much less stressful by knowing my fur babies and home are taken care of. Thank you 10x over!!! ❤️”

“Mallory was a wonderful sitter for my two cats! It was very easy for me to leave them in her care. She followed all instructions and even helped clean up scattered litter, which is always appreciated when coming home from being away. Would recommend/book again!”


“Absolutely amazing!! I can always trust them to take great care of my 2 old kitties while I'm away. I know that they are getting plenty of love and attention. So thankful for them!!”


“Olga was fantastic! Our cats typically do not do very well with temporary changes in their environment and have not done well when boarded previously. Olga sent us regular updates and photos of them and it was very clear that they got much more comfortable staying with her after a short adjustment period. Can not recommend her enough! We will absolutely bring our pets back to her in the future any time they need to be boarded! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boys Olga!!!”


“Lulu is so attentive to our cat Yul and our home while we are away. Her updates are the absolute best and she always puts us at ease. I would highly recommend Lulu to anyway looking for pet care!”

About: I've had pets for ages, cats & dogs. Right now I don't have any, home is lacking! I have a special heart for smaller dogs! Right now, I'm working from home part time. So am pretty flexible watching your pet. My preference is to have your pet here in my home. I have a large fenced in back yard, dogs seem to love roaming in it! I prefer to crate at night and have always crated my dog when leaving home. I find dogs seem more secure when crated.

“Maddie checked on my cat and took care of my plants when I was gone for 2 weeks. I couldn’t be happier, my cat is doing great and the plants look better than when I left. Thanks Maddie!”


“Joanie was wonderful dropping in to take care of my cat. She's very dependable and sent many pictures and detailed reports so I knew how my girl was doing. Kitty was relaxed and happy when I got home so I know Joanie was very kind to her.”


“Elise was great. I didn't worry about our kitties during our trip. She sent pictures of them every day and they always looked happy and content. Thanks for doing a great job Elise!”

“Quick response for a late request. Let me know when she was headed over and checked if there was anything else to get taken care of. I appreciate the comms and tryin to play with Tanqueray. Def will use again.”

“Maddy has taken great care of my cat Cheeto multiple times now. She always comes on time, sends a picture of Cheeto, and makes sure she is happy and well fed. Highly recommend!!”


“Monet did a wonderful job for us. She took care of our furbabies as if they were her own...AND..took care of our home so everything seemed like normal for them. We are already planning our next annual trip and have asked Monet to hold a spot in her schedule for us. Meow!”


About: I have experience, both personally and with side gigs, caring for cats of all ages, all energy levels, and MANY feistiness levels. Growing up with a barn-cat-turned-house-cat taught me how to read cat behaviors and not bother them unless they want to be bothered! But trust me, if they allow it, I can play or cuddle with your kitty for hours.

“Nathan is terrific! His care for my Pastis went above and beyond. My return home included being greeted by a well cared for fur angel, and a walk into a totally clean home. Litter was swept up, trash was taken out, dishes were cleaned. Nathan checked in at agreed upon times with pictures and assurances that all was well. I cannot begin to express my appreciation for his professionalism and personal care for my furry companion. This first visit will turn into more. Two thumbs up!”

“Always provides reliable care and plenty of communication and updates. We so appreciate having Catherine care for our 3 cats when we are out of town as we never have to worry about them getting the attention and love they need to keep them happy while we're away.”

“I have a somewhat unique situation with my cats and I was going to be gone for about 12 days—longer than I’ve ever been away from my boys. I was able to completely trust Connie to take care of them while I was gone, and I will booking her in advance going forward whenever possible! Can’t recommend her enough.”

“Derrika was great with our pup! She was very professional and I had a high degree of confidence that our little guy was well cared for and loved while we were away. I loved feeling like it brought her joy to be with him too and not just a transaction. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Amazing. Sylveena is wonderful. She fit me in last minute and my Snick loved being there. She sent plenty of photos and most of all my baby slept like a baby when I picked her up. Sylveena is great and I will definitely book with her again.”

“Elaine is friendly and warm and I felt good about leaving Olive for her first day of doggie daycare with her. I will certainly plan on using her services again. Thank you Elaine.”

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of him. He loves hanging out with you. It's funny because we will tell him where he's going in the morning and he gets so excited!”


About: I have had pets since I was a child, so I am very familiar with their needs, behavior and the care they require. I am a responsible, affectionate and patient person, and I always make sure that pets feel safe, comfortable and well taken care of. In addition, I also have experience taking care of children, which has helped me develop my patience, attention and sense of responsibility even more. I like to treat each pet with love and care, as if it were part of my own family. 🐾 I work only four days a week and usually get home early, so I have plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. I have had pets since I was a child, so I am very familiar with their needs and the affection they require. In my daily routine I always include time to play with them, feed them and make sure they are comfortable and well taken care of. Many friends trust me and bring me their pets when they need help, which has also given me experience taking care of different animals and adapting to their needs. 🐾 I offer pet care during the night in my home or at the owner's house, making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well taken care of. It includes food on time, walks if necessary, playtime, company during the night and a lot of attention and affection. I always follow the routine and instructions of the owner so that the pet feels as calm as possible. My goal is for the owners to have peace of mind knowing that their pet is in good hands and receiving care as if it were part of my family. 🐶🐱
“I can't thank Griffin enough for taking care of my dog on such short notice. They were incredibly accommodating and provided excellent care. Highly recommended!"”

“My pup was sooooo happy to see Najji on a return visit for day care! It made both their days being reunited! Rosso and Dolly, Najjis pup, are besties. Sure is good to have Najji available when my schedule is full and Rosso needs play time.”

“Billie gives such kind, loving care to Ginger. She makes adorably decorated little jars of home made treats for special holidays and is a wonderful caregiver to our senior dog. Her own dog is an easy going older fella himself, and they ignore each other companionable. 😄”

“Ron is always so patient and understanding with my pup. He is always actively working to try and make daycare suitable for all types of dogs and works hard to meet the needs of the dogs he cares for. I never worry about Link when he is with Ron!”

About: If you want to drop off your pet for day care and or over night stay, no problem. If you have an emergency and need someone on the spot just give me a call or text and I will see what I can do. If your pet is with me for day care I ask that you provide a leash, food & anything you feel your pet needs for the day. Poop bags are available at my house. If your pet is at my home for an overnight stay I ask that you provide food/water bowl, food, bed, cage if needed & anything else you feel your pet needs for the night. Poop bags available at my house. Feel free to contact me if you have questions.

“Great communications (several check ins, including picture) to let me know my mini goldendoodle Enzo was settling in with the other dogs and doing well during his first day. Enzo was calm and confident when I picked him up - indicating it was a good experience for him too :) Thanks!”

“So grateful for Morgan’s help today - she even trimmed the dogs’ nails for me. Glad she was able to take both my dogs for daycare and she sent videos and pics throughout the day, which was so much appreciated. Morgan is super friendly and great at what she does. Looking forward to next time!”

About: With over 20 years of dedicated experience, I bring an unmatched level of expertise and heart to every pet I watch. I specialize in the gentle, attentive rhythms of senior care—from precise medication management to mobility support—as well as the patient, consistent guidance needed for puppies and young pets finding their paws. Because I understand animal behavior inside and out, I offer far more than just a watchful eye; I provide a calm, confident, and deeply intuitive environment where your best friend can truly thrive. When you leave your pet with me, you are choosing two decades of proven, top-tier expertise and total peace of mind. My schedule is built entirely around providing dedicated, focused attention, meaning I have plenty of time to make your dog my top priority every single day. Because my routine is highly flexible, pet care isn't just a task squeezed into my day—it is my day. Here is how that dedicated time translates into top-tier care for your pup: Frequent Potty Breaks & Outdoor Play: Having a wide-open schedule means I can maintain your dog's exact bathroom routine, minimizing accidents and keeping young or senior pets comfortable. Structured Attention: Whether it’s reinforcing basic training with a puppy or providing calm, gentle companionship for a senior dog, I have the time to sit, observe, and engage with your pet on their terms. Consistent Medication & Feeding Schedules: If your pet requires a strict routine for meals or medical needs, my availability ensures they are taken care of exactly on time, every time. Calm, Supervised Environment: Because I am around and available throughout the day, your dog will enjoy a secure environment with constant supervision and plenty of belly rubs. In short: I have the time, the space, and the flexibility to ensure your dog never feels rushed or overlooked. Their comfort and happiness set the pace for my entire week.

I focus on creating a seamless blend of home comfort and exciting structure so your pup feels like they are on a premium vacation. Here is what your dog can look forward to: A Massive, Fully Fenced Backyard: Your pup will have all the room they need to stretch their legs, play fetch, and safely burn off energy in a large, secure outdoor space. Built-In Playmates: With my own friendly dogs around, your pup will have instant companion socialization and plenty of opportunities for supervised group play and afternoon naps. Endless Neighborhood Adventures: We are perfectly situated near fantastic local walking trails and dog parks. If your dog loves exploring new sights and smells, our daily routine includes plenty of fresh air and active outdoor adventures. A Seamless Home-Away-From-Home Experience: Because I am steps away from beautiful trails and have a secure yard right at home, I can perfectly balance high-energy outdoor activities with quiet, comfortable indoor downtime. The Goal: I mix a secure, dog-friendly home environment with the best activities the local area has to offer, ensuring your pet is happy, well-exercised, and thoroughly loved.

Lulu is very punctual and professional and has answered any questions I have. She also leaves a detailed report after each walk. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been taking on pet sitting gigs for over 6 years! I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs big and small, and cats of all ages! I grew up with a very high-energy Labrador and feisty barn-cat-turned-house-cat. I now just live with a Snowshoe kitty named Pepper. I will care for your pets with utmost respect and tailor to their needs. And yes, I will take LOTS of pictures of your pets, and maybe even a full photoshoot😉 I am 23 years old, a recent Mizzou graduate, and a full-time remote worker. I currently work full-time remotely, so I have flexibility to see your pet throughout the day and much room in the evening after 5pm. While I work, I can often stay with the pet(s) during the day to take them out, keep them company, and tailor to their specific needs. I also strive to make the house look just like it had before the family left.

Very dependable, respectful and got along with Bubbles really well, will definitely have her as my go to for pet assistance in the future.”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own in the past years, as well as taken care of many of my friends dogs in the past years. I run my own business from home so I have all the time in the world to be attentive of your pet. I will always keep you updated as well. I can have your pet kenneled until it’s time to go do business. I work from home so I will be checking your pet often. I have a big yard for your pet to run around in. It is not fenced but I will put the leash on the pet if needed.
About: I’ve been the resident cat and dog sitter since I was a teen in my family and friend group. I have worked with dogs big and small, and cats of many temperaments. I have been an overnight sitter for both animals, and have experience walking, playing, following routines, and making the pets feel comfortable and loved. I have followed medication routines and given medications for both cats and dogs as well when needed, and am comfortable doing so. I am currently working part time while going to grad school, so I am back and forth from the house and able to check on any pets throughout the day. My home has plenty of space for another cat to hang out. In my home, I try to make the environment as comfortable for other pets as possible and make sure they feel safe and secure as they would in their own home. As for visiting pets at their homes, I enjoy knowing their habits and preferences, so I can cater to their needs as closely to their normal lifestyle as I can. Simply put, I want pets to feel at home and safe regardless of their location, and do my best to love them and their needs whatever they may be.

“Lillian was amazing! We usually board our two med/large dogs, but one got a mild respiratory infection right before a big trip and we needed someone responsible and caring to come in and walk, feed, love on them and give meds while we were gone for a week. We all loved Lillian from the moment we met her. Over the course of the week, she gave us such peace of mind with detailed notes and photos to let us know how they were doing. Everything went so smoothly and we were able to enjoy our trip, knowing our doggos were in good hands. Would pawsitively recommend Lillian anytime! 🐾”


About: Been taking care of a doggo since I was six... From bathing them after a nice roll in some poop to giving them all the snuggles in the world, I have done it all. I know the true responsibility of owning and caring for a dog, as I would tend to all the needs of my lovely golden retriever. They are pure joy & love, and I know they mean the world to us owners, but they also require lots of work! So I'm here to help. With a flexible schedule and a passion for pups, let me be the one to make sure your special k9 is living their best life. Whether it's a brisk walk or a weekend of fetch, it's a happy doggy. I am working from home with a flexible schedule! Eager for a morning and evening walks and afternoon strolls around the block! Always room for pets during the day. No dogs or kids in this apartment. Safe environment for dogs with parks locally to run around or lakes to walk to. Home does have stairs.
About: Hi! My name is Megan and I currently have three cats and a rat terrier puppy who 5 years old! Unfortunately in 2018 I lost my 14 year old Jack Russell Terrier. I love animals and have always had at least one pet in my life, usually cats and dogs at the same time so if you have cats too I'm good to go. I love hanging out with animals and would be thrilled to sit your whenever you need :) Since I have so many pets at my house at the moment, I cannot board dogs, but I can do anything else! I'm always ready to welcome new furry friends into my life, even temporarily. Please let me know if you have any more questions! I work full time in OP so I am able to drop in on pets before or after my 8-5 shifts and anytime over the weekends. I like to make sure pets are comfortable with me and with each other, so I don't have pets stay in my own home. This is because I have many of my own pets. I only watch pets in their own homes.

I also had a Labrador who made it to 13 and my current old man puppy is 13. I've been with my husband for 20 years. We LOVE dogs of all ages and sizes. I'm a stay at home mom to my geriatric dog. We get up around 6am, go outside for a bit, come in and get breakfast, then lounge while I clean. Lunchtime we go out again, have healthy snacks like carrots, then play in the fenced in yard or the living room depending on weather and temperature. Late afternoon and evening we wind down and get ready for dinner. I have a fenced in yard, a friendly old dog, tiled floors, comfortable furniture that they're allowed on, and air vents that come from the floors (dogs love to lay on them). There is security on my home and absolutely nobody but delivery people come here during the day.
“Brandon and Nicole were awesome hosts for my Bud Man. He enjoyed the whole week with them. Looking forward to having them watch him again this summer. Thanks!!”

“Abigail was fantastic with our Great Dane pongo, she kept us updated and was super flexible with pickup times for me! Absolutely will be getting ahold of her again for future stays!”

“Shannon is excellent at communication! She sent lots of pictures of my pup having a blast at her house (daily walks, playing ball, etc.). She loves dogs and genuinely enjoys taking care of them. I would definitely let her watch my dog again in the future.”

“Chloe & Collin were fantastic! Very quick to respond to messages and she sent lots of pictures and updates! She was very kind and flexible with our busy schedule while we were in town! We will definitely use them again next time we are visiting the area!!”

“Jay recently watched my dog, Fergus, while my husband and I were out of town. I appreciated the time he took to talk to us about our Fergus before hand. He wanted to ensure he would be able to provide the best care. Which he did! He told us his plans for caretaking at drop off and gave us updates while we were gone. Our dog is nervous around strangers but Jay strived to make him feel at home.”

“Franklin loved it - so much, that he took a second to decide whether he wanted to stay or go home with me! ? Carly was responsive, sent pics & was flexible on hours, etc. Great experience!”

“Upon the first conversation and meeting, she made us feel comfortable and we knew our fur baby would be safe and well cared for. Being out of the country for 3 weeks, we needed no worries and Saige delivered! When we picked up Mali, she looked happy and loved. We will definitely be using her again. Thank you!”

“This is our dogs second time staying with them and he’s always been so happy when he comes home and you can tell he was well cared for and loved and played a lot!”

“This was a longer trip than usual but I didn't worry at all about Beau the entire time. I know Becky takes the best care of him and he loves visiting her. I appreciate the daily pictures and videos to show that show how happy he is.”

“Nate is the best! I’m so thankful I found him & his family. Jett loves his whole family. I always know he is well cared for while I’m on vacation! Jett is always so excited to go on “his vacation to Nate’s!””

“They did an amazing job with Nymeria. She was slow to warm up at first, but they kept me updated and reassured me that she was starting to come out of her shell and get comfortable. The communication they provided was very much appreciated and made me feel so much more comfortable knowing she was in a safe and loving environment. She is back home and sleeping soundly now, and I know she had a great time and received plenty of care and attention. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands and not sitting in a cold kennel without much human interaction. I truly appreciated the care, patience, and communication throughout her stay. I will absolutely be using their services again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets.”


“A real pro you can trust, Tylarr was perfectly prompt and communicative and made our weekend wedding adventure a breeze! We will definitely be booking with her next time we are in KC”
