“My pup is a senior dog with limited vision and hearing. Stephanie was great with Daizie in helping her adjust to a new environment. She kept me posted throughout the weekend on how my “ole” lady was doing. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Julie took very good care of my dog. She sent pictures everyday! Julie was very accommodating and nice to me abd my dog and answered my texts very promptly. When I need a sitter again I will definitely contact Julie & Jensen.”
“Teigan was awesome with our girl Faye! She watches other dogs so Faye was able to make some friends and enjoy her time while we were out of town. She came back happy and ready for a nap after her fun filled weekend. We don't have any complaints, Teigan replied when we checked on Faye and sent a few pictures as well! Her set up was great with a lot of room for Faye to run around. I definitely recommend her. 😊”
“Aisha was great and very accommodating. She boarded Oliver even though it was kinda last minute. And she was understanding when I was late picking up Oliver due to traffic!”
“Gus came home exhausted! He came home just as he was dropped off. Her kids hugged on Gus before we left which can only make me think they loved on him and treated him as their own. This was our first use of Rover and we will more than likely use it again. Gus hasn’t ever really been around other dogs and she allowed him to adjust and said he did great with them. Highly recommend and will use her again in the future.”
“Christopher did a great job taking care of my dog. She had a great time, got lots of walks and attention, and had other dogs to make friends with during her stay. If I ever need boarding for her again, I know who to go with.”
“Samantha did a wonderful job caring for our sweet pup. 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.”
“Teddy loves to go play at Donavon’s!! He sends pictures to show his brightest smiles. Also, Donavon is accommodating to our needs as well as Teddy’s. I have recommended him to All my friends!!”
“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.”
“Scruffy enjoyed her stay with Chloe! She was made to feel at home and acclimated to her new surroundings quickly. Chloe sent pictures and updates. We will definitely use her again.”
“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.”
About: My oldest is Bubba 16yr 100 lb black lab mix and my youngest Harley 1yr 65 lb lab shepherd mix. Ive taken care of dogs/cats for over 20 years. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is very flexible for boarding, daycare or just to drop in to make sure your furries are exercised and fed.

“Layne watched my Tyler (cat) for several evenings and provided daily pictures/updates on how he was doing!! She was friendly and professional and made the entire process very easy. Glad Tyler had a good place to stay!!! I would definitely recommend.”

About: I’ve worked in a veterinary clinic for 7 years and have lived with animals my entire life. I work with cats indoors and/or outdoors. All ages are accepted. I have experience in grooming/bathing, administering oral and injection medications, and wound care/bandaging. I have a part-time job but I make sure your pets take priority.
About: I’ve lived with cats my whole life and totally get their moods, quirks, and need for both space and love. I’m super patient and gentle, and I always try to bond with each cat in their own way, whether that means playtime, quiet company, or just making sure they feel safe. I’m comfortable with senior cats, kittens, giving medications, and yes… I don’t mind cleaning litter boxes either! I really enjoy making cats feel at home even when their people are away.

“My dog Priscilla stayed with Stephanie while I explored the town. She was very nice and sent texts of pics and videos which help relieve my anxiety . This is my first time using rover and it was a great experience! Priscilla had a blast and seemed very comfortable when I picked her up!will definitely be back to visits friends and will use Stephanie's services again!”
“Titania is one of a kind, she was attentive and caring for Hank and gave me peace of mind being new to this. I will be returning anytime I need Hank watched. It was well worth the money to have her take care of him.”

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.
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

I love doing it in my free time.🤍🤍 I have a huge yard for them to run & play. Also keep an eye on them when they are outside. Plus they will have time to eat and rest after a day of playing.
About: I’ve taken care of my grandmas dog she has 17 from small to large dogs and I feed them and let them pee when need to. I am currently employed many I don’t have a study hours so I will let you know what my hours are when it comes time. I let my dog to go outside to pee or poop every 2 hours sometimes sooner depending if he had a lot to eat and drink I so feed him though out the day but with my grandma dog some are on a time schedule to be feed
About: If you need a trustworthy, patient and experienced pet sitter I am confident we would make a great team. I have had pets of my own since before I could walk, with experience in equine/large animal care to small critters, I can assure your furry friends will be safe in my hands. As a pet parent of two dogs of my own, I am confident in my ability to ensure a safe and comfortable walk/sitting experience for you and your pets! I aim to provide a communicative and dependable service that helps you feel comfortable while you are away from your pets! I’m currently working as needed, so I have plenty of time to help care for you pups! I am available through out weekends and weekdays I always prioritize slow, thoughtful introductions to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. While I'm not offering in-home boarding just yet, I'm excited to open up my home soon as a peaceful, pet-friendly space where your dog can feel truly at ease. In the meantime, l'm available to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home. I believe that stress-free care starts with a familiar environment and clear, reliable communication.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 5 and I’ve loved it ever since. I’ve had owned many dogs and cats. I’ve helped with pets of all ages, from tiny babies to sweet seniors. I’m going to school for animal behavior and care because animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I love making sure they’re happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Right now, I am going to school online for my bachelors while working! Pet care is the perfect way for me to stay busy doing something I love while also helping people out. It fits into my routine really well right now because I have the time and flexibility, and it gives me experience for my future career with animals. It’s a win-win, I get to be around pets and give them the love and care they deserve while I’m in this in-between stage. When I’m caring for pets in someone’s home, I treat it like my own, with a lot of respect and care. I always follow your instructions closely because every pet has their own routine and comfort zone. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to their feeding schedule, giving meds, or just keeping them company, I focus on creating a calm and happy environment. I know how much trust it takes to let someone into your home, and I don’t take that lightly.
