“Really glad we found Clarence & Lindsay! They were absolutely amazing with our dog, Suki, while we were away on a 2.5-week vacation. They made our trip completely stress-free! We received daily updates with photos and videos of Suki playing, running around their big yard, going on walks, and just having the best time with their 4 dogs & a cat! She’s a very high-energy dog who needs lots of attention and activity, and they gave her exactly that. it felt like Suki was on her own vacation too! 😂 They also continued working on her training and she followed thru with the commands she knows. It was so reassuring to know she was not only being cared for, but also getting plenty of structure and attention. I trust Clarence & Lindsay wholeheartedly with Suki and would absolutely have them watch her again. We’ll definitely continue using their service in the future. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pup like family!!!”

“Laura did a great job for us and our dog, Reggie. She is an animal lover and that was apparent from the beginning and Reggie took to her immediately. She has a large backyard that is perfect for dogs, with toys and pools to keep them cool. She was kind enough to bring Reggie back to our home so we didn't have to drive to Aurora to pick him up. I highly recommend her!”

“Chuck took exceptional care of my dog, Ella. She is a senior dog with some recent health issues and he was so good with her..she requires medications and he made sure she got what she needed. She’s also not used to a lot of people other than family and hasn’t been boarded for several years so she was pretty whiny and clingy for the first few days but she settled in. I so appreciate his patience with her. I would 💯 recommend Chuck for pet sitting! Five stars!!”

“Ashley took great care of my two dogs at her kennel. 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.”

About: I am local foster through a local rescue. My husband and I both have a passion for dogs and will treat your fur babies like they are our own! We have experience caring for puppies as young as 8 week and seniors. We are comfortable administering medications if needed and are familiar with pups who may have seizures. We don’t have any stairs so there is no need to worry about a senior pup who might have hip issues needing to climb stairs. I work full time and my husband works full time as well. Our schedules are staggered so your pup would be let out first thing in the morning by myself and then my husband will resume until he leaves for work. Midday we have a family member come over and let the dogs go outside and allow them to eat and drink as well as have some time to play. They are never left alone for more than 4-6 hours at a time. The days I’m off I’m home and my husband works from home 2 days a week as well. We have had this routine for over 4 years now with our own personal dogs and there has never been any issues. We had a brand new privacy fence installed on July 12th! We have a half acre back yard so dogs will have plenty of room to run! We will do our best to accommodate any special requests you may have. Please note our home was recently built so our grass is still in the process of growing. There may be days your pet becomes muddy if conditions are rainy. I am happy to provide a bath for your pet for a small additional fee upon request. I also highly recommend doing a meet and greet prior to your stay to ensure your dog will be comfortable with my pets and around the house.

About: I’ve been a devoted dog person since day one. Growing up, I spent every waking moment surrounded by our family Labradors - Hoss, Chance, and Shadow. They were my constant companions, teaching me early on about dog body language, energetic play, and the unconditional loyalty that makes dogs so special. Today, my heart belongs to my rescue pup, Sadie. Caring for rescues has deepened my understanding of individual dog personalities, patience, and how to make every pup feel secure, loved, and completely pampered. My ultimate goal in life is simple: to share joyful, safe, and enriching moments with as many dogs as humanly possible. Why Your Pup Will Love Their Time With Me! I treat every dog like royalty, tailoring each visit to their unique energy levels and preferences. Whether your pup thrives on active play and scenic strolls, needs a gentle companion to snuggle with, or requires steady, attentive handling, I provide personalized, five-star care. When your dog is with me, you can count on: - Tailored Attention: From high-energy fun to calm, soothing companionship. - Safety & Security: Attentive, experienced handling learned over a lifetime of caring for dogs. - Complete Peace of Mind: Frequent, high-quality updates and photos so you never miss a moment of their day. I love being active throughout the day. I’m able to spend time walking in the morning (8-9:30am), over the lunch hour (11am-1pm), and in the early afternoon (3-4:30pm). This will vary but for the most part is when I’m available. I’m all about learning each dog’s preferences and quirks. Just like humans, dogs have things they like and don’t like. I’m a firm believer in building a relationship of trust with each dog and never pushing myself on them.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, reliable approach and my experience caring for senior dogs through Wiggles Senior Dog Sanctuary. I understand the patience, gentle handling, and attention older dogs need, and I’m comfortable supporting medication routines and slower-paced care. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort and emotional well-being so they feel safe, secure, and loved while you’re away. My husband and I are currently home full time, and I work from home, so I’m able to provide consistent supervision and care throughout the day. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and monitoring. This allows me to maintain their normal routine, provide regular potty breaks, walks, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and relax. I also have friendly, well-socialized dogs who can provide companionship if your dog enjoys being around others. I always prioritize safety and comfort, and I can crate your dog if needed to maintain their normal routine or give them a quiet space to rest. My goal is to make your dog feel secure, happy, and right at home while they’re in my care.

“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Samantha!!! My mom lives in Aurora Mo and I live 9 hours away in Wisconsin, my mom ended up in the hospital and I had no one to go let her dogs out. Samantha answered my message for help in just minutes saying she could assist with taking care of the dogs. She was even able to let them out and feed them the SAME NIGHT as my distress message. Set up 2 more visits for the next day as well because my dad wouldn’t be home until later that night. Samantha made me feel so at ease with entering my mom’s house without meeting her, taking care of my mom’s dogs that are her babies and locking back up! I was grateful for the pictures she sent of them so I knew they did indeed go potty. I sent the pictures to my mom and she cried knowing they were being well taken care of. Samantha thank you for being my hero and taking such good care of Dezi and Rowdy while my mom was in the hospital on such extremely short notice!!”

About: What sets me apart from other house sitters is that I’ve been a true cat person for as long as I can remember—my first word was actually “kitty-cat” (not even kidding!). I’ve cared for cats of all ages, from tiny kittens to senior cats—like my own 14-year-old cat, Prince, who’s in my profile photo. I’ve also had experience with special needs cats, including one that was blind. When I was 15, I rescued a litter of kittens and their mom from an old abandoned barn and helped care for them until they were safely rehomed. I genuinely love and understand cats, and they always seem to sense that.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid who lived on a little farm. My experience ranges from birds, ferrets, reptiles, & cats, dogs. Animal care has always been something I’m passionate about. I know how important my animals are to me and so I will take the best care of yours while you’re away. I am a full time teacher so pet care is on the evenings most of the time. I can schedule weekends ahead of time and be available all day to let your loved ones outside as needed. During the summer my availability will be wide open! My pets are treated like a member of the family. I think that animals in our care should be shown love and grace because we chose to take care of them.

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life and have always lived on a farm. I take care of animals both BIG and small. I love to be around animals. They are my happy place. I work from home. I train horse so, I'm as available for any of your pets needs. I can move my schedule around to accommodate you and your furry friend. I will care for your pet as if it was my own. My pet and yours are part of the family. They don't really know they are pets.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid who lived on a little farm. My experience ranges from birds, ferrets, reptiles, & cats, dogs. Animal care has always been something I’m passionate about. I know how important my animals are to me and so I will take the best care of yours while you’re away. I am a full time teacher so pet care is on the evenings most of the time. I can schedule weekends ahead of time and be available all day to let your loved ones outside as needed. During the summer my availability will be wide open! My pets are treated like a member of the family. I think that animals in our care should be shown love and grace because we chose to take care of them.

About: I have had big dogs in the home since I was born and took on the responsibility of caring for them around 8. I have experience with all ages dogs and can administer medication if necessary. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I’m currently working toward a second degree and commute to Springfield daily for classes, but I always make time to care for my cats at home. Having grown up with dogs, I understand the importance of consistency, attention, and companionship in a pet’s routine. My schedule is structured, and I’m used to balancing responsibilities—so I bring that same reliability and care to the pets I look after. Whether it’s keeping them company, making sure they feel safe, or just spending quality time, I treat every pet. I am very patient and respectful with all animals and the spaces I care for them in. I and careful to return leave the space as I found it or clean up any space if requested.

About: I am local foster through a local rescue. My husband and I both have a passion for dogs and will treat your fur babies like they are our own! We have experience caring for puppies as young as 8 week and seniors. We are comfortable administering medications if needed and are familiar with pups who may have seizures. We don’t have any stairs so there is no need to worry about a senior pup who might have hip issues needing to climb stairs. I work full time and my husband works full time as well. Our schedules are staggered so your pup would be let out first thing in the morning by myself and then my husband will resume until he leaves for work. Midday we have a family member come over and let the dogs go outside and allow them to eat and drink as well as have some time to play. They are never left alone for more than 4-6 hours at a time. The days I’m off I’m home and my husband works from home 2 days a week as well. We have had this routine for over 4 years now with our own personal dogs and there has never been any issues. We had a brand new privacy fence installed on July 12th! We have a half acre back yard so dogs will have plenty of room to run! We will do our best to accommodate any special requests you may have. Please note our home was recently built so our grass is still in the process of growing. There may be days your pet becomes muddy if conditions are rainy. I am happy to provide a bath for your pet for a small additional fee upon request. I also highly recommend doing a meet and greet prior to your stay to ensure your dog will be comfortable with my pets and around the house.

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.

“Really glad we found Clarence & Lindsay! They were absolutely amazing with our dog, Suki, while we were away on a 2.5-week vacation. They made our trip completely stress-free! We received daily updates with photos and videos of Suki playing, running around their big yard, going on walks, and just having the best time with their 4 dogs & a cat! She’s a very high-energy dog who needs lots of attention and activity, and they gave her exactly that. it felt like Suki was on her own vacation too! 😂 They also continued working on her training and she followed thru with the commands she knows. It was so reassuring to know she was not only being cared for, but also getting plenty of structure and attention. I trust Clarence & Lindsay wholeheartedly with Suki and would absolutely have them watch her again. We’ll definitely continue using their service in the future. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pup like family!!!”

She’s also not used to a lot of people other than family and hasn’t been boarded for several years so she was pretty whiny and clingy for the first few days but she settled in.

About: I’ve been a devoted dog person since day one. Growing up, I spent every waking moment surrounded by our family Labradors - Hoss, Chance, and Shadow. They were my constant companions, teaching me early on about dog body language, energetic play, and the unconditional loyalty that makes dogs so special. Today, my heart belongs to my rescue pup, Sadie. Caring for rescues has deepened my understanding of individual dog personalities, patience, and how to make every pup feel secure, loved, and completely pampered. My ultimate goal in life is simple: to share joyful, safe, and enriching moments with as many dogs as humanly possible. Why Your Pup Will Love Their Time With Me! I treat every dog like royalty, tailoring each visit to their unique energy levels and preferences. Whether your pup thrives on active play and scenic strolls, needs a gentle companion to snuggle with, or requires steady, attentive handling, I provide personalized, five-star care. When your dog is with me, you can count on: - Tailored Attention: From high-energy fun to calm, soothing companionship. - Safety & Security: Attentive, experienced handling learned over a lifetime of caring for dogs. - Complete Peace of Mind: Frequent, high-quality updates and photos so you never miss a moment of their day. I love being active throughout the day. I’m able to spend time walking in the morning (8-9:30am), over the lunch hour (11am-1pm), and in the early afternoon (3-4:30pm). This will vary but for the most part is when I’m available. I’m all about learning each dog’s preferences and quirks. Just like humans, dogs have things they like and don’t like. I’m a firm believer in building a relationship of trust with each dog and never pushing myself on them.
