About: Hi my name is Diane, and I have been caring for dogs, cats, fish and birds most of my life. I will care for your precious babies just like my own. They will receive professional care, love, attention and affection. This is my full time job, if you can call it that. It's a blessing. I have a nice yard and field for walks, and a large covered deck for outside play time in severe weather. I only take one family's pets at a time. So, your babies will get plenty of quality attention and companionship. My home is pet friendly and all safety precautions have been implemented. Your companions will be kept separate from my own for the safety of both parties. I am also comfortable and experienced taking care of special needs pets that might require medications to be administered or other accommodations. I now have a bedroom designated for cats. It has a king size bed and lots of windows for bird watching. I only book one family's cat or cats at a time. I have excellent reviews and references. Thank you for your consideration. This is my full time job. A labor of love. So, caring for your companions will be my top priority. You can feel confident and secure while they're in my care. I will accommodate your companions needs and your requests. All pets are kept safe and attended to at all times. I am trustworthy and reliable.

About: Hi! My name is Katie and I am 32 years old.. I have dog sat many times over the years for family and family friends. I have been obsessed with animals since before I can remember. Dogs are the key to happiness in my opinion!! I will never turn down an opportunity to pet a dog or cat if able. I will be sure to keep your dog or cat well taken care of with lots of love, potty breaks as needed and outside or inside play if they are energetic! I currently am a stay at home mom for my 1 year old, so I have flexibility and will be able to provide what’s needed for your fur baby to the best of my ability. I would love to get a run down of your typical day or what your animal normally requires and expects. Keeping them in a routine they are comfortable with is important and I am happy to provide that as much as I am able.

“My pup Lady says Allison was a 5 star walker! She is organized, good with communication and bakes yummy dog treats. Sad to say goodbye as we move out of state.”

About: I am an avid pet lover. I’ve been around dogs all my life (minus a short time when I lived in an apartment and couldn’t have a dog, so we decided to adopt 2 cats!). I am a pretty active gal, and am able to take dogs for walks (and even run if they want to). I'm open to drop in visits, housesitting, walks, etc. I am unable to provide boarding at my house, as our Chloe is selective about her friends. We are working with her on being more tolerant of others. If boarding is your preference, I would be open to a Chloe meet-and-greet to make sure your dog and Chloe are comfortable with each other. I work locally around Columbia, so I am able to do some petsitting during the week. I have more availability on the weekends. If my schedule allows, I can drop in on lunch to check on your pets. Your rules are my rules. As long as the dog/cat/etc. is happy, I am happy. My dogs are allowed on furniture and have the run of the house. Of course, they are not chewers and (typically) do not destroy things.

About: I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom with kids that love dogs as much (or more) as I do! We would love to love on your pup while you are away! I stay home to homeschool our two girls. Our schedules are flexible and would allow a good amount of attention and care for the pups in our care. Our yard is not fenced but we do have a lead, I can easily crate if needed and I have a sweet pup named Clive who loves furry friends- not to mention two daughters who love to play with dogs!

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was little! My mom owned a rescue and we have several pets of our own. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, chickens, and lizards. I have taken care of pups 0-16, and some with special needs like medication and specific diets! I am currently home from college, and may be working part time, but rest assured I will have plenty of time for your pup! I am a very outdoorsy person, and love to go on hikes and walks! I have an unfenced yard (around 2 acres), and a neighborhood nearby that I walk my own dog in. I have one friendly dog and four cats. I am able to take care of any special needs or requests your pet might have!

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life (as well as a few chinchillas, parakeets, racoons, fish, etc.) I love all animals and look forward to caring for yours. I recently retired so I have maximum flexibility to meet your needs. Weekdays or weekends are fine. Long-term or short-term both work for me. I am flexible. I live a short distance from a dog park and walking path. Let me know any of your pets special needs and I would be happy to accommodate them.

About: I used to foster dogs. My yard is pretty big and I have a doggie door. My dogs do not mind visitors. I am off work during the summer and all major holidays. I am a teacher so I am off for the summers. When school is in session, I get off early and I am usually home before 4pm. I have a fenced in yard that can be accessed by a doggie door. I have 3 small dogs. I walk them and play with them on a regular basis. I also have 2 cats.

“Brittney was fantastic with my dogs! She made sure they were comfortable with her and took lots of pictures. They were happy and tired from their walks with her. She’s very responsive, polite, and friendly. I’d highly recommend her.”

About: I'm a very upbeat individual. Love time with animals and treat them as I would my own. I have had all kinds of dogs since growing up little, small and in between. Presently I have a small Shitzu 8lbs who is fiesty and fun. They will be happy, nourished and if needed healthy with some exercise and playtime. Normally, I can read animals pretty well. I'm very dependable, caring and patient. I'm retired so therefore, pretty flexible and able to "fit in" most situations. I've done many different things as far as work is concerned so I thought I'd try something new, not so demanding and fun that works with my schedule. I will feed, walk and play with your dogs, housesitting overnight also if it is not too far and I keep everything pretty simple. Dogs like to have their environment pretty much the same so I try to avoid too many unnecessary changes. They will be well cared for and have great fun!

About: Hi, my name is Emily. I am a reliable, responsible college student who has been taking care of personal, family and neighborhood dogs for over 8 years. Beyond pet sitting, my love and devotion for animals doesn’t stop at your door. I hope to extend this passion by volunteering abroad. I look forward to meeting your fur family members! I’m currently completing college online. My schedule is flexible as I am home majority of the time completing school and spending time with my dogs! I have two 12 year old Miniature Schnauzers who are apart of my family, and I couldn't care more for them. I assure you that I will care for your pet as I do my own. I insure your pet will be exercised, played with, fed, and cared for properly. I am more than happy to follow any additional guidelines they may have!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I’ve even had the adventure of having my own since he was 8 weeks old and potty training him. I’ve also helped family members with their aging fur babies whenever they’ve needed. I work a few days a week at a local ER so those days my husband takes care of our dogs but I have the rest of the week free that I love to be with our fur children. I have plenty of time to help with more pets for someone who doesn’t have the time . Working in a local emergency room I do have to be a reliable person at all times which carries into my personal life. We do have a decent sized fenced in yard at home and even walk our dogs on their leashes around the neighborhood which is super dog friendly as well!

About: I’ve had personal fur babies of my own that I’ve cared since I was a teen. Since then, I have gained experience in the animal welfare world that allows me to care for a variety of animals. This includes interning at Purina, interning at the Humane Society of Missouri and working at various Boarding facilities. I currently work from home on a flexible schedule which will allow me to tend to your fur babies as if you were doing so yourself:) as to not disturb their current care schedule in your absence. I have a range of experience working with all animals in a addition to house sitting. I will not only take care of your due baby with the upmost care, I will do the same for your home.

“Austin really helped out while I was on the mend and could not walk my dog. He was so good with Willow, and he worked with her so she would not pull on the leash, lunge at other dogs on her walks and get accustomed to being around other dogs. He also took the time to explain to me about getting a corrective collar for her. I will definitely contact Austin again if I need dog walking assistance.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small pets. Along with volunteering at a local rescue, I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I care for my own dogs every day and often help friends with their pets. I also volunteer regularly at a local rescue. Pet care is a natural part of my schedule, so I’m comfortable handling different animals and their needs. I ensure pets are safe and comfortable by maintaining a clean and secure environment. Whether at my home or yours, I follow established routines and any specific instructions to provide consistent care. Communication is clear and timely to keep owners informed.
