“We absolutely LOVED Jason, and so did our dogs! I was honestly so sad that we needed to leave our new puppy with someone because dogs weren’t allowed at our Airbnb — but Jason and his family were THE BEST. Communication was outstanding, and we received videos every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind. Brock and Zoe loved their time there! They had lots of toys to play with and were clearly happy and well cared for. We also loved that we were able to drop them off and pick them up daily, so we could still see them while on vacation. As if that wasn’t enough, they sent us home with the sweetest card that included photos that turn into stickers — such a thoughtful touch and perfect for our Branson scrapbook. Their location was super easy and convenient, right by Branson Landing, which made it perfect for pup-friendly shopping and nature walks. We will FOR SURE be booking with them again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Tovah sent us pictures and updates about our goldendoodle daily. She had many helpful hints as to why she had certain behaviors and how to correct them. If ever in the Branson area again I will definitely book Tovah.”
“Emily was a fantastic sitter for our pup. She kept us updated daily and I knew he was well looked after and that he was in great hands during his stay. She even sent him home with a little treat baggie! I would definitely book Emily again if I'm traveling back through the area.”
“Mike was a fantastic sitter for my shorkey. She was with him 4 days and was well cared for and I got lots of pictures of my happy fur baby. I strongly recommend Mike if you need a dog sitter he really likes dogs and takes excellent care of them!”
“This is the first time I have used Rover, with absolutely no complaints. Todd was excellent with Luna, and I feel she was well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to board Luna with Todd again.”
“Thanks Janie! Huckleberry is always well taken care of while in your care. He's a crazy spoiled pug with a huge personality and you handle him well. You will always be our go to sitter!”
“Rowan was very good with Gypsy. She can take a little while to get used to new people- he was very good with her. He sent pictures and let us know how she was doing all week. She got a lot of play time and was having fun the whole time. We'll definitely be booking with him again!”
About: I love animals. Super excited to work with you and your fur baby. Working with animals is a passion for me. Animals and I have a connection that makes them feel comfortable and at home. Of course it also entertains me in the mean time. I currently have a puppy that’s a year and a half that lives with me and my Husband. I also have a husky that's 4 yrs old. I grew up around animals and it’s always a pleasure to be able to work with your fur baby. As far as special skills, I’m able to maintain control of the dog on walks as well as in home while providing the upmost care for your baby. Looking forward to meet you and your furry family. My schedule varies but I usually work anywhere from 11am to midnight, depending on my shift that day. I am a bartender/server. I am beyond flexible for you and your furry kids, I do have the option to request off at least a week ahead so I can make time for your babies. I am very active and loving. I will spend extra quality time with your furry baby to make sure they are comfortable during my time with them.
“Steve is gentleman, very kind and was really great in all respects. He proactively reached out before our meetup for any specific needs and to offer to meet me for a more convenient drop off. Our dog is a really sweet but busy guy and he requires an activity or can get squirrelly. He was so calm when I picked him up and clearly was exercised well the entire visit with Steve.”
“Kelly was amazing with my super anxious Great Dane when we were passing through Branson and wanted to spend the day at Silver Dollar City!! She took great care of him and even got him to use the doggy door! I would definitely send Bandito again if we ever pass through Branson again!”
About: Hi pet parents! I’m Marci, and I’ve been house and pet sitting for over 12 years with excellent references available upon request. I grew up in Southern Missouri around a wide variety of animals, which gave me early hands-on experience with training and daily care. Professionally, I’ve worked in both exotic and domestic animal environments, including a zoo setting caring for livestock (such as alpacas, ponies, and young camels) and aviary birds, as well as a high-volume dog boarding/daycare facility in Phoenix, AZ where I worked with 150+ dogs daily. This gave me a strong understanding of dog behavior, group dynamics, and handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m confident with drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and maintaining your pet’s routine exactly as needed—including feeding, exercise, medication, and companionship. I especially enjoy walks, enrichment, and positive reinforcement training for puppies and energetic dogs, always prioritizing safety, structure, and calm, happy behavior. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every home and pet with respect and care as if they were my own. I have reliable transportation and auto insurance for peace of mind. I currently live in Branson, Missouri and am a stay at home mom/photographer. My daughter is very gentle, calm, and accustomed to being around animals. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets (or home) and give you peace of mind while you’re away. My daily and weekly schedule is highly flexible and I am available for pet and home care nearly always. If for some reason I am I available my calendar should reflect that - or just ask because I might be available anyway. I am very mindful and cautious, especially when it comes to animals and children. In my home there are no small objects or sharp objects that could harm or be cause for choking hazards. I don’t feed your pet extra treats that aren’t approved by you, and I keep them safe by making sure doors are closed so they don’t run off.

“My Zoee loved Allison and her husband! Allison was so nice and friendly. She asked tons of questions about Zoee and provided the best experiences she could based upon Zoee’s routine’s and behaviors. I will definitely use Allison again!”

“This was Mallory's second visit with Archie & Conor. Archie had previously warmed up to her but Conor is one picky cat. She totally won him over on day one - I couldn't be happier! When we got home today, they looked at us like, "you're not Mallory". 😀”
About: I have had years of experience with cats. Some of my own when I was younger and some that I have cared for through friends and family. I understand that cats can be particular about their environment and need someone who is mindful of their preferences.
About: Growing up with two dogs of my own, I learned early on that pets aren't just animals, they are part of the family. My lifelong love for dogs and animals is what inspired me to start providing dedicated pet care. Over the years, I have built experience caring for dogs of various shape, size, and personality. Whether your furry friend is a tiny companion or a large breed, they will be in safe, joyful, and loving hands with me. I am new to the Branson area, and I am looking for more ways to be active and work additionally part-time. I love being around dogs, and I am excited to make it a part of my normal routine. I am very considerate and organized. I will treat your home and pet like it is my own. I will happily perform my service and respect your time and space while doing so.
About: Reliable and have always had an animal magnetism. I love to get to know the animals and whatever their specific needs are to help make them feel most comfortable. I’m part time at the moment, so, I’ll have ample time to spend with your pup! I can always work out a time to make it work for you. I have a lot of experience with dogs and can assure you that all of your pets needs will be more than taken care of. Please feel free to ask any questions.
About: I've had cats my whole life, growing up my family rescued many stray cats so I know how to handle them well! And of course making sure their litter is clean and always have water and food
About: I treat every cat with patience and respect for their unique personality. I’m comfortable with shy cats, seniors who need medication or extra care, and keeping routines consistent to reduce stress. I provide gentle attention, clean litter boxes thoroughly, and send regular updates so you always feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I have had dogs, cats, geckos, rodents, snakes, & everything in between throughout my life, but certainly classify myself as a dog-lover! We bred English Pointers growing up in the Ozarks, had a Jack Russell as my own personal pet as a boy, had other dogs in the family growing up, and fostered and dog-sat during COVID! Excited to spend time with your pet! I left my corporate job last year & am currently building a free-lance career and locking in a GMAT score. I am 100% available & flexible- any day of the week and at any time! Currently, I cannot board a pet at my home as our landlord does not allow pets. I am available for sitting at the client home, check-ins, and walks! I actively work with leash-training, and if you would like for me to focus on it with your pet, please ask! I do not charge any extra for this but appreciate tips!
About: I’ve been a cat person for as long as I can remember and have been caring for my own cats since I was 10! I’ve gotten plenty of hands-on experience with all the fun (and sometimes very specific) things that come with being a cat parent, from administering pill and liquid medications to cleaning all kinds of litter boxes. I know every cat has their own unique personality, quirks, and routines, and I love getting to know them on their terms. Whether your cat is a professional cuddler, a playful troublemaker, or a little more independent, I’m happy to give them the love, patience, and attention they need! 🐱💕
“Byron is an absolute gem. He took phenomenal care of our newfie and goldendoodle. He was also extremely helpful with a number of unexpected “surprises” (not all dog related) that occurred while we were gone. Overall, Byron’s care, effort and communication was above and beyond our expectations. You’d be crazy not to book him.”

“Our sweet Ollie came back happy and calm! ! We could tell he was very well taken care of and enjoyed his time with Todd! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our pup while we were at SDC! We so appreciate it!”
“Where to start from? Jason and Bri were fantastic! First of all they took my baby in a last minute request and she has special needs! They're super nice and they care a lot for fur babies, they always kept me updated on Kiara with pictures and videos. Kiara felt super comfy with them even though it's just her second time with a sitter (in her 11 years). Also they gave us a super cute detail at the end 💕 Don't think about it and book with them, you won't regret it!!!”
“Lily was immediately at ease with Sarah. She took our reservation at the last minute and was wonderful to work with. The photos she sent throughout Lily’s stay with her were not only adorable, but also reassured me that Lily was in a safe and happy space. Thank you, Sarah!”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about Liza and her care for my dogs! I booked her super last minute the night before we needed her and she was more than accommodating and kind! We planned last minute to go to SDC today and didn’t have care for our dogs as we aren’t from the area! I found Liza ok this website and she she took exceptional care of them! Getting them out for lots of run and play time! My dogs weren’t nervous with her at all and I got lots of photos of them playing and napping which really helped this fur-mommas nerves! I am so happy to have connected with her! When we come back for SDC or any shows I will book her for my babies so they can have a great time too! If your in the area visiting and need daycare or overnight, I would highly recommend her care! It is nothing shy of fantastic!”
“I booked Nancy for daycare so I could have a Mom’s day out. Nancy did an amazing job with my German Shepherd, Otto. Otto was new to socializing with other dogs and she was so patient and allowed him to interact with her sweet little dog, Bailey. She gave Otto lots of attention and walks and sent picture updates to me. Her love of animals shines through. He was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. Nancy gave me detailed feedback about Otto’s day that was so helpful for me. I’m so grateful to have found Nancy and highly recommend her to give your dog the TLC he/shedeserves and peace of mind you need when leaving your fur baby.”
“This was our pups first time staying with someone for the day so our family could enjoy SDC and Emily was great! Very friendly and reassuring at drop off and helped make him more comfortable. She sent pictures of their play time and outside time. Would definitely trust her with our pup in the future!”
“Janie has looked after Maple a couple times now and has been amazing by keeping us updated and providing pic/videos during the visit. I would recommend to anyone needing a Dogsitter.”
“Rowan took wonderful care of my dog Hana. He was very attentive, communicative, and it was clear he loved what he did. Hana always came home happy and well cared for, which gave me great peace of mind. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him.”

“Chante was wonderful! She took great care of my pups and cat while my husband and I were in town visiting in our RV. She was incredibly accommodating to our crazy schedule and we so appreciate her taking care of our fur babies while we were enjoying Branson.”
“Malloy was very conscious of Sophie's needs for her first walk. There was a great bond between the two of them which is important for a hopefully long lasting relationship. These are all very important factors for me when it comes to a Dog Walker. I highly recommend Mallory!”

About: We have always loved animals. We started offering pet transportation to the vet for people who are unable to take their fur babies to the vet and it turned into a full time business taking care of animals 💜 As there are two of us, one or both of us will be available to take care of your fur babies needs around the clock! We just recently moved from Mississippi to the Ozarks and we are currently in the middle of getting a place where we will be able to provide our boarding services again! Until it is complete we will only be able to provide our other services. We can't wait to start meeting new fur babies here! 💜 Our schedule revolves around dogs 😂 Thankfully there's two of us so that we can multitask while ensuring the dogs will always be taken care of. We have a fenced in yard that your fur baby can run wild in without the worry of running off. We also have security cameras that cover the back yard.
