“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.”

“Sam and her husband are great! They took care of our Goldendoodle for a week. They kept in touch with us during the week with pictures and videos. We couldn’t have asked for a more caring family to watch our Izzy. We highly recommend them and will be using them the next time we leave town. Thank you again Sam for taking such good care of our fur baby.”

Seneca, MO, 64865

About: I've had dogs all my life. Shelties Schnauzers, Suberian Huskies, German Shepherds, Yorkies and now beagles. I deeply love them all. I worked several years as a veterinary technician for a large and small animal clinic in the 1980s until life took me in a different direction. I currently live on our small family farm. I have a fenced back yard for your baby to play in. And there is a lot going on to entertain them. I'm retired and home all day if I'm hosting your fur baby. I would love to meet your furry kids and help them have the best time either here or in your home. I'm retired and if your fur baby is staying with me, I'll be here with them the whole stay. If I'm dropping in for a play and potty session, I'll give them all of my attention and an enjoyable session. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly beagles to play with your pup. I can crate if you like, or if they're house trained, they can have the run of the house with my beagles.

Baxter Springs, KS, 66713

About: We are Kate and Cameron, the proud parents of a pack of doodles living in Baxter Springs, Kansas. We would love to care for your doggo at our loving, urban dog ranch. Our house sits on a ¼ acre corner lot that is fully privacy-fenced. There is plenty of shade from mature oak trees to play under, a water trough to splash in, many toys, chickens to watch (fenced off for safety), and a dog door for full access to the house when they are ready for lounging. We live next to Kiwanis Park, which has a lovely 1.5 mile walking loop. Cameron is a long-distance runner, and can offer running sessions for our friends with higher energy needs. Kate grew up in a veterinarian's home and has logged over 100 hours training dogs for therapy in schools. We have robust knowledge of dog health and behavior and can ensure that when you return, you will find your dog safe, happy, and tired! Let us care for your dog as one of our pack! We look forward to chatting about details if this sounds like your kind of set-up. We have three dogs, so we are constantly feeding, walking, petting, or playing with somebody. I’d say pet care is the hobby we spend most of our time on. We have a privacy fenced in yard, for safety. We have a doggie door, for convenience. We are happy to have a feeding schedule, for a little peace of mind if it’s requested.

About: I’ve owned cats most of my life! I love them all their little personalities! Working at a vet hospital I’ve become familiar with how to handle them in stressful situations and reading their body language! I’ve also become very good at telling when something is off or even comforting them in stressful situations. Obviouslyyy play time is the best but cuddles & relaxing are just as important!

About: Safety is my top priority when caring for your sweet pup. I love to go on walks and play fetch with dogs. I enjoy loving on dogs and ensuring they are well cared for. As I have a sweet pup of my own, I am only able to offer 30-min drop-ins or walk sessions. Each weekly schedule varies, but I am happy to help out where I can. You can count on me to care for your pup the way I care for mine! I work 3 12 hour shifts a week at the hospital which leaves 4 days a week for me to be able to help care for your pup. My pup has a big playpen that he stays in while I’m away at work. Inside his playpen he has a large puppy cabin that he treats as his house. My pup has all the chew toys he could ever want as well as a large stuffed animal to play with! My pup is provided with stimulating toys to keep his mind engaged throughout the day. We love to go on walks and play in the grass each day.

“I honestly can’t say enough good things about Samantha. This was my first time ever leaving Grizzly, and I had SO much anxiety about it. Like, genuinely anxious. I had no idea how I was going to feel leaving him with someone else, but from the second we met Samantha, I felt so much better. Her family was incredibly welcoming, her home was so inviting and clean, and you can immediately tell how much she loves animals. Watching her with Grizzly — and all of the animals — was honestly the sweetest thing. She has such a calm, patient, loving demeanor with them, and Grizzly completely adored her. She kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout his stay, and I looked forward to every single one. Seeing him so happy and comfortable made such a difference for me. By Sunday, I was genuinely so relieved that I had found someone I could trust with him. Grizzly had the BEST time, and I’m pretty sure he would happily go back tomorrow 😂. Samantha made what I was so nervous about feel completely easy, and I’m incredibly grateful for that. We will absolutely be back. I couldn’t recommend her more.”
