“Lona and Alan were great with my 110 lb St Bernard mix Ralph, and I have nothing but the nicest things to say about how they treated him. I received pictures throughout the entire week and felt like I was right there with him. I knew that he was in good hands at all times!”
“Amanda did an excellent job! She sent updates twice a day with pictures and was very understanding with how dogs are in new environments. Nice big fenced in backyard and a very dog friendly environment.”
“Angelica was great to work with. We had a pre-meeting at her home to introduce my dog to her pets. She made sure her pets were secure when we arrived for drop off and gave my dog time to settle in. She sent regular updates and pics. She even sent us home with a clean dog pen. Will definitely use Angelica again and recommend her highly!”
“Noreen took care of our guy last minute. She was wonderful and sent us many pictures and updates throughout the weekend. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave our pup with her again!”
“Gail is THE BEST!! You can tell she really loves animals, especially the dogs. She made my Fredo feel very relaxed and at home under her care. She has a lovely home and makes all of the dogs she cares for very comfortable. I would use her again to watch Fredo. Fredo can't wait to go back to play with Sky! Thanks Gail.”
“This was our fist time boarding our dogs. They did great and loved Joseph. He made them feel comfortable right away. They came back happy and tired. Would definitely recommend Joseph.”
“Taylor was great! Extremely happy with our experience with her. Sent frequent updates/photos and our dog seemed to really enjoy his time at her house. 10 out of 10 would recommend”
“Dominic and his team at home took great care of Maddie. She came home worn out from all the playing with the other dogs. They have a great yard for outdoor playtime and plenty of beds all around (and a lap or two).”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was just 7 years old. My passion is caring for others. I know how to work with dogs with emotional and behavioral issues. I know how to handle dogs even big dogs that pull on the leash. I can help keep training consistent. I run a home daycare and help care for my mom and homeschool my autistic 16 yo son. So I have a lot of time, room and love to give your doggies. I do have a dog and 2 cats of my own that don't get along so I have to switch out their living room social time and will ensure your animals has some social time as well. I am able to care for 3 more dogs at a time. I have a large basement with an unfinished room that I put a baby gate up for the door and I have 2 kennels. If I have 3 dogs at once I will rotate the dogs out to make sure that one does not have to stay in a kennel too long. I will ensure your doggy always has food and water available and frequent bathroom breaks with plenty of love and social time. I have a semi big yard with a 20 foot tie down lead to ensure your dog has enough room to run around but won't get away. I also have a small plastic kiddie pool I fill up for the doggies to get in and enjoy!
“Laurie was a phenomenal pet sitter for our little dog Mona. I messaged her out of the blue to see if she'd be willing to meet us at our wedding venue to get photos with Mona and then take her overnight. She was perfectly on time for everything and flexible for us with our photos and absolutely spoiled Mona for her overnight stay - including a little pup cup pit stop for being so good in our photos. She was so communicative with us before, during, and after the event and put together a custom package of her services to fit our more unique request. Thank you, Laurie!”
“Cheyanne watched both of my pups! Which was such a blessing for me as I have an older senior dog and a younger gentle giant. They came back both tired and well loved! So happy to have found someone to give them lots of love while I was on my trip.”
“Rocio was great! She sent me daily updates and really loved on my pups! My pups loved her yard and we appreciated her so much! My pups will be back soon! Thank you again Rocio!!”
“We have used Catherine quite a few times...we really like the way she takes care of our boy...and I can tell he likes her too...we will definitely be using her again...”

“Billie Jo is wonderful!! She was always on time and kept me informed of how my Peanut was doing. It's such a reassurance to know my kitty was so well cared for while we were gone!”
“Amanda is the best! I get so nervous leaving our cats behind, but Amanda looked after them like they were her own. She went above and beyond and we are so thankful for her! We could not recommend Amanda highly enough.”
“Robin is a gem. I'm pretty sure our cat, toby, was sorry to see us come home because Robin spoiled him. Seriously, she took the extra steps to ensure that Toby was safe and comfortable while we were away. She played with him and brought special treats from home. She made sure his litter box was cleaned daily and his water was fresh. She updated us daily with photos. I highly recommend Robin and I know we will be using her again.”
“Kodiak was the best! They were super reliable, sent us updates and photos every day, and took great care of our kitties. It was really nice not having to worry when we were gone! When we got home there was a handwritten card and toys left for our cats, that was such a thoughtful touch and honestly made our day. We’d absolutely rebook and would recommend them to anyone! :)”
About: I've been taking care of cats ever since I was 10 years old. I have owned three cats in my lifetime. I am experienced with various ages from kittens to elderly care with kidney problems. I do require a meet and greet before I would consider coming to your home to take care of your kitty or kitties.
“She is very reliable and communicative when she watched my 2 dogs for the 4th of July weekend. I am very appreciative to have found her and definitely recommend her to anyone needing a great dog sitter. Thank you Hannah!”
“Tiffany did a great job visiting Bootsy while we were out of town. Everything went as expected and she makes a real effort to interact with the cat. Will absolutely use again!”
About: I have hands on, everyday experience caring for four Golden Retrievers of my own. Managing a multi dog household has given me skills in canine schedule structure, supervision, and understanding of different personalities and energy levels. I also have experience caring for infant puppies, including feeding schedules, potty training foundations, crate introduction, and the patience that can sometimes be needed during those important early development stages. I’m comfortable maintaining routines, reinforcing basic training, and providing both high-energy play and calm, attentive care. Your pet will be treated like part of my family: safe, loved, and well cared for! I work remotely full time, so I am very flexible and am able to meet you and your schedule requests, whether it be for in-home visits, walk outing, or overnight stays. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise routines, and any specific instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also reinforcing any training or household rules you have in place. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Olivia dropped in on our shy cat and was able to slowly but surely gain his trust. She took good care of him and drew him out enough to send us pictures each day. It was a comfort to know Olivia was checking in on him.”
“Meggie was our first time using Rover and I was a nervous wreck about it but Meggie is the reason I feel comfortable now. She follows and listens about your pets from my most rambunctious Judas to my sweet quiet Yoruichi. Let's not forget her great communication while we were away and sent plenty of photos to make sure my heart could take being so far away. Thank you Meggie and please don't ever change but only become better!”
About: I have experience working at a doggy daycare that also boarded cats, where caring for the feline guests quickly became my favorite part of the job. I enjoyed engaging cats through play, enrichment, and individualized attention while ensuring they felt comfortable and secure during their stay. I am confident in reading feline body language and understand the importance of respecting each cat's unique personality and boundaries. As a cat owner myself, I am passionate about providing reliable, attentive care and treating every cat as if they were my own.
“Lara was great! She came to my home and checked in on my babies while I was on vacation. I received an update with pictures that I really appreciated. I would highly recommend her.”
“I’m glad Kristen was there to look after our cats. I can tell they get along well with her, and I appreciate the updates she sends me. It’s reassuring to know they’re all safe and happy. 😊”
About: If I had to describe myself, I'd say I'm a bit of a Disney princess—animals just seem to warm up to me. 😊 While I've never personally owned a cat, I've cared for cats from 20+ different families over the past 10 years, so I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from the social "pet me immediately" type to the shy "I'll watch you from across the room for three days" type. I believe every cat deserves to be cared for on their terms. Whether that means sitting quietly while they decide if I'm trustworthy, playing with their favorite toy, sticking to a strict feeding routine, or simply making sure they have a calm, clean, stress-free environment while you're away, I'm happy to adapt to what makes them most comfortable. I know how important updates are when you're missing your pets, so I make it a point to send plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing they're happy, healthy, and well cared for. My goal isn't just to stop by and refill a food bowl—it's to make your cat feel as safe and comfortable as possible until you're home.
About: I will treat your pet with the utmost respect and love. No one should have to spend time worrying about their pets when they are on vacation, I send or post regular photos and almost always have my phone with me for any question or concerns you may have. I have spent my whole life with pets, I also volunteer with rescues, drive freedom transports for dogs, and foster when needed.

About: Hello there! I'm Hailey, and dogs hold a special place in my heart. Throughout my life, I have been fortunate to have dogs as constant companions, and now I'm eager to utilize my expertise in handling them. With a calm and laid-back demeanor, I prioritize building trust with your furry friends, hoping to win their affection along the way. Working from home grants me the flexibility to be there for your pups and other animals whenever they need me. Equipped with experience from puppy training classes, I'm confident in my ability to handle even the most energetic puppies. Additionally, I am trained in dog CPR, ensuring the safety of your beloved pets. As a former collegiate softball player, I maintain excellent physical fitness, enabling me to keep up with your dogs throughout the day effortlessly. If you have any further inquiries, please don't hesitate to contact me. As someone who works from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. With the flexibility of my schedule, I have the privilege of being available for your pets throughout the day. This means I can provide them with the attention, care, and companionship they need. Whether it's feeding, exercise, playtime, or administering any necessary medications, I can be there to tend to their needs promptly. Additionally, I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine for pets, so I ensure that their feeding and exercise schedules align with their usual habits. Rest assured, your furry companions will receive dedicated care and supervision, as I am always present and ready to meet their needs. The way I care for pets in my home or a client's home depends on the specific service being provided. Here are a few scenarios: In the client's home: Pet Sitting: When providing pet sitting services at a client's home, I make sure to replicate the pet's daily routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them according to their usual schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs for walks, and engaging in playtime or exercise based on their specific needs. I also offer companionship and affection to help reduce any separation anxiety they may experience. Drop-in Visits: During drop-in visits, I visit the client's home at scheduled times to check on their pets. I ensure they have food and water, clean litter boxes, let dogs out for bathroom breaks, and spend quality time with them, offering play and affection. Dog Walking: For dog walking services, I take the dogs on stimulating walks to provide exercise, mental stimulation, and an opportunity for bathroom breaks. I follow any instructions regarding route preferences, leash handling, or specific behavioral considerations. Regardless of the service provided, the well-being, safety, and happiness of the pets are my top priorities. I strive to create a comfortable and nurturing environment, maintain their regular routines, and shower them with love and attention, just as their owners would.
About: For most of my life I have owned a dog and for all of my life I have loved dogs! As I kid, I helped care for my family dog, Dexter, until he was 17 years old. Currently, my wife and I have a 28 lb. Beagle/Lab mix Riley. She's such a joy in our lives. I know how important your dog is to you, so I will care for yours like she/he is mine, with lots of love, playtime, walks and great care. Now that I’m a stay-at-home dad I have so much more time to spend with Riley and you’re dog, too! From young puppies to seniors, I have cared for a wide range of sizes, needs, and breeds. Each dog requires special care and I am here to provide just that. I am willing to make most requests and special accommodations. Ask and I will let you know if I can meet your needs. In addition to walking and visiting with your dog, communication and updates are important services that I provide. When I am away from my pet, I want to know she's okay and receiving the best care. I'll send as many or as little photos of your fur baby as you'd like, so you can confidently know that she/he is being take care of; the photos will also give you a little smile to get you through the day. We also have a 9 year old cat, Moby. He keeps to himself and his cat tree on most days, but we occasionally receive some lap visits from him.
“Nathan was great! Quick to respond and took our little guy for daycare on VERY short notice. No communication issues and we would definitely trust him to pet sit for us again.”

“Melissa was fantastic!! Our boy Lando had a great time. When we dropped him off we could tell he would be in good hands. Melissa was even able to keep Lando a little while longer than originally planned on short notice. We would absolutely trust her to watch Lando again!!”
About: I have had pets all my life from dogs and cats to gerbils, hamsters and fish. Even as a young child I was primarily responsible for most of the routine daily pet care. I'm a trained CNA with applicable caregiving skills. I also have extensive experience as a shelter volunteer having walked the dog and played with them as well as socializing the cats. I'm currently self employed as a home care aide and wish to take care of animals in between assignments or during days off. I do not have any responsibilities that would interfere with me taking care of your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a yard stake. I live in a townhouse with an open grass backyard. I regularly take my dog to The Liberty, MO Stockdale dog park and can take yours there too if that's your preference. If you wish I can walk your dog as many times per day as you prefer. My neighborhood has paved sidewalks and walking paths that I routinely use to walk my dog daily. I have one cat and one dog and each get along with other cats and dogs very well but should there be any unforeseen issue, I can put your pet in my spare bedroom. I also own a wire dog crate for large dogs. I can crate your pet in your home or my home if you wish me to. I will take care of him or her in whichever way you prefer. I do not crate my dog but I did as a puppy to facilitate his potty training. My dog sleeps with me at night as does my cat sometimes. Both are friendly and well socialized but again, I can put either in a spare room or your pet if necessary. Both my pets are up to date on their vaccinations and they get a monthly pill for flea and tick prevention. I can do everything from long or short walks, taking them outside for potty breaks, administering food or medicine, playtime, etc.
“I was very nervous to leave my dog with someone for the first time but James exceeded my expectations he was very attentive to my dogs needs and sent me updates. My dog can be a handful but James was amazing. He was great and friendly and highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs from a young age. Staying with me, they will get attention, love, play time and cuddles. They will also get to play with my dog Lexi. I work from home full time so I’m always here. I’m able to go outside and play with your pups or give them extra attention. I have a fenced in yard with locks on my gates. I have a doggie door and the back door is always open. I have a 5 year old pup that is very calming and caring. She has been great with other dogs. She is very nurturing and always makes sure those in her space are safe. I have a couple of stories I can provide about her. I am very hands on and constantly checking on my girl and will do the same for your furbaby. Safety is very important to me, not only for your furbaby but for myself and my furbaby as well.
About: Moonbabies Little Lodge offers boutique home boarding designed especially for small dogs who enjoy a calm household environment. Your dog will stay in a cozy home setting with a small resident pack of friendly toy-breed dogs and plenty of supervised outdoor playtime in our secure backyard play yard. Our yard features enrichment areas just for small dogs, including ramps, tunnels, lounging spots, and shaded cabana areas where pups can relax between play sessions. In warm weather we even bring out a splash pad for dogs who enjoy cooling off. Inside the home, dogs are part of the family during the day and sleep comfortably in their own individual night pens with beds and toys for a peaceful evening routine. Because this is a small home environment, we typically host only 2–3 guest dogs at a time, allowing us to give each dog plenty of attention and supervision. This setup works best for dogs who: • are under about 20 lbs • are comfortable around other small dogs • are house trained • can relax calmly in a pen or crate if needed A meet-and-greet is required before first bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. We look forward to welcoming your pup to Moonbabies Little Lodge — where little dogs have big fun. Caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life! Guest dogs join our calm daily small-dog household routine with supervised backyard playtime, indoor relaxation, naps, cuddles, and social interaction throughout the day. I keep my guest list intentionally small so each dog receives close supervision and personal attention in a comfortable home environment. Moonbabies Little Lodge is designed specifically for friendly small dogs. Dogs enjoy supervised play in a secure fenced backyard and are introduced gradually to maintain a calm group dynamic. Guest dogs are monitored closely and separated if needed for rest, meals, or quiet time. Overnight, dogs sleep safely in cozy individual pens with their own bedding, food, and water.
“She is amazing and my puppy loves to see her!! She is ready to watch your pup and knows when your in a hurry to get to your next stop. If you want your pup to get the best care she is excellent!!!”

About: I grew up on a farm with many types of animals and hard work. I have worked in veterinary clinics as a kennel attendant and now a veterinary assistant for over 10 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I'm comfortable caring for elderly and sick pets as well as giving medications. I live and work in the Liberty MO area. I am an early morning person and can do early morning drop in visits and walks before 7 am (including weekends and holidays). I typically get my lunch break between 12-2 pm. I can come and do a drop in visit or do a short walk over my break. Evenings are a possibility but are less flexible and open. I can offer enrichment with treats, playtime and exercise. I like a good cuddle session as well as a hyper wrestling match, or active fetch game. I enjoy being out in God's creation and am open to more nature based walks if you have an active curious pup (like my own dog). I think cats should also be enriched and loved. I like playing games with cats and helping them feel comfortable and spoiled. I have owned a lizard of my own and am not afraid of reptiles or rodents. I think exotic pets need enrichment, entertainment, and love as well.
“Billie is so wonderful! We could not peacefully go to work without her help. Our dog is always happy when I get home and the house is always locked and secured after her departure. THANK YOU!”
“Kamila has been taking my Goldendoodle on walks while I am at work and has been so amazing! She communicates very well with me and has been so flexible with my nursing schedule. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone!!”
“We are so lucky to have found Tiffany J! From the very first meeting, it was clear how much she truly care about animals. She has been so incredibly reliable and always on time, which gives us such peace of mind while we're at work. Our dog, Flex , gets so excited every time she show up. I especially love the daily photo updates and detailed summaries of their walks. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional walker! Thanks Tiffany!”
“Abigail was simply amazing with the dogs! She was very good with them, send frequent updates when she walked them, including pictures! You could see the happiness in their faces, and that they were enjoying their time with Abigail. It was a huge relief to know that they were being taken care of when I couldn't be there for them. I would recommend Abigail to anyone!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and it seemed the family dogs always gravitated toward me. I can’t imagine life without them! I’ve been caring for other’s dogs ever since I got my drivers license. The first dog I watched for a family (a beautiful Alaskan husky) had diabetes and required diabetic shots twice a day. Even though it hurt to have to give him shots, I loved having the opportunity to care for dogs other than my own. Since then I’ve had the opportunity of being the go-to dog watcher for several families with several different dog (and cat) breeds. I will make every effort to give your dog the same care that I was able to give Skyler and the rest of the dogs I’ve had the great fortune of watching and taking care of. There’s not many things that give me more joy than spending time with dogs. Now that I have more time on my hands in my 30’s I have recently gotten connected with volunteering with KC Pet Project. Dogs deserve all the love in the world. I currently work from home Monday and Friday so in addition to the weekend, it opens up availability to be present for the doggie. I’m in the office Tuesday - Thursday but available for morning/evening and quick bathroom breaks over lunch. I have a fenced in backyard and ample space inside the house to make your dog comfortable. I can crate if needed, but also have rooms that can function as “dog” rooms for the periods when I need to leave the house. I have my own Belgian Malinois, who mostly does her own thing. :)
“Arrived to visits on time, took lots of pics, made sure food and water were filled, but most importantly, Gus enjoyed her and was comfortable with her!!! Will definitely hire Michaela again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life and have done pet sitting jobs for close friends and family. I have a passion for animal wellness and I worked in the veterinary industry as a vet assistant on and off for the past 5 years!! I’m good at handling high energy dogs, geriatric dogs, small and large breeds, and so on! I’m currently completing my masters degree in Applied Bioscience in Animal Health online! I also work part-time so I have a very flexible schedule. We can definitely work something out! At home, I care for 5 dogs and 1 cat. So, alongside my veterinary experience, I know the ins and outs of what dogs do and don’t like. At home visits and dog walking services will be up to the owners specifications!

Able to work most visits into my schedule without issue, but if there's a visit that won't work, you'll know as soon as I do so other arrangements can be made Only open to dropping by and house-sitting bookings at the moment because my own dog can be reactive and we currently live with a cat, but I'm a great caretaker and a top choice for my friends when they need a sitter.

I love to build relationships with pets and owners and care for them to the best of my ability I'm available Wednesday through Saturday with flexible hours and can provide walks, and drop-in visits. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to each dog's unique needs. I understand every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I always make it a priority to follow instructions closely including, feeding schedules, medications(if needed), and any special preferences. In a clients home I focus to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and affection.
About: For most of my life I have owned a dog and for all of my life I have loved dogs! As I kid, I helped care for my family dog, Dexter, until he was 17 years old. Currently, my wife and I have a 28 lb. Beagle/Lab mix Riley. She's such a joy in our lives. I know how important your dog is to you, so I will care for yours like she/he is mine, with lots of love, playtime, walks and great care.

Each dog requires special care and I am here to provide just that. I am willing to make most requests and special accommodations. Ask and I will let you know if I can meet your needs. In addition to walking and visiting with your dog, communication and updates are important services that I provide. When I am away from my pet, I want to know she's okay and receiving the best care. I'll send as many or as little photos of your fur baby as you'd like, so you can confidently know that she/he is being take care of; the photos will also give you a little smile to get you through the day. We also have a 9 year old cat, Moby. He keeps to himself and his cat tree on most days, but we occasionally receive some lap visits from him.

I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have experience helping care for dogs and cats through pet sitting, dog walking, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I also have cats of my own and genuinely love spending time with animals. I have a ragdoll cat named sugar and she is my everything.

About: I've been around animals my entire life and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I grew up with dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of different personalities and needs. Currently, I have a large, energetic dog and a bunny of my own, so I'm comfortable caring for both dogs and small animals. I also previously volunteered as a foster for a local humane society, where I cared for dogs as they adjusted to new environments and prepared for their forever homes. That experience taught me patience, how to read animal body language, and how to help pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I'll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and care that I give my own pets. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience while you're away, giving you peace of mind that your furry family member is in caring hands. I am currently on summer break so my schedule is pretty flexible. After summers I am free for drop ins in the morning and after school, and weekends! I have worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I look forward to loving your pup like my own for a short time! I will send updates and pictures while you are away!
“Kristen provided dog walking and indoor play (when very cold) for my newly adopted Goldendoodle. I appreciated the level of communication she maintained with me and her professionalism. My dog responded very well to Kristen’s care and direction too. I had no qualms about leaving my home open to Kristen—she was very trustworthy. I would not hesitate to call on her again for assistance in the future.”
“Deedee walks my dog 4 days a week when I’m at work. She is very reliable and flexible with my changing schedule! She also is very responsive and great at communication. Always sending me pictures too! Definitely book her for your next pet sitting needs!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was just 7 years old. My passion is caring for others. I know how to work with dogs with emotional and behavioral issues. I know how to handle dogs even big dogs that pull on the leash. I can help keep training consistent. I run a home daycare and help care for my mom and homeschool my autistic 16 yo son. So I have a lot of time, room and love to give your doggies. I do have a dog and 2 cats of my own that don't get along so I have to switch out their living room social time and will ensure your animals has some social time as well. I am able to care for 3 more dogs at a time. I have a large basement with an unfinished room that I put a baby gate up for the door and I have 2 kennels. If I have 3 dogs at once I will rotate the dogs out to make sure that one does not have to stay in a kennel too long. I will ensure your doggy always has food and water available and frequent bathroom breaks with plenty of love and social time. I have a semi big yard with a 20 foot tie down lead to ensure your dog has enough room to run around but won't get away. I also have a small plastic kiddie pool I fill up for the doggies to get in and enjoy!
“Laurie was a phenomenal pet sitter for our little dog Mona. I messaged her out of the blue to see if she'd be willing to meet us at our wedding venue to get photos with Mona and then take her overnight. She was perfectly on time for everything and flexible for us with our photos and absolutely spoiled Mona for her overnight stay - including a little pup cup pit stop for being so good in our photos. She was so communicative with us before, during, and after the event and put together a custom package of her services to fit our more unique request. Thank you, Laurie!”
