If you are ever needing a dog sitter in Branson, I unreservedly recommend Jason (and his wife)! Daily updates, lots of activity, followed Addie’s routine. For a first timer, who was very fearful of leaving my beloved girl, this was a wonderful experience. And made my stay in Branson so much better knowing my dog was well taken care of. Highly recommend!

Michelle was so incredible with our pup! This was our first time using Rover and she put me at ease almost immediately when I dropped him off. She kept me updated throughout the day and was extremely responsive through texts. We are so grateful!

Tovah was great. She handled our two spoiled lap dogs and sent pictures. Very personable and the dogs were not anxious when they got home. Will use her again!!

Great with our pug. Kind when we got back later than planned. Very informative on things I didn’t understand about dogs. Amazing yard for her to play in.

About: I love taking care of animals! I have a cat, 2 Australian Shepherds, and I raise sheep for shows) Please reach out with any needs! I work throughout the week so weekends are best! I can also pop in early mornings or in the evenings anytime after 5 pm ! If you crate your dog, I have no problem with that. I have crate trained both of my dogs! If your pet is dog friendly and up to date on shots, my mini Australian shepherds love a good play date. We love going on long walks or trips to the creek!

Emily and her family are so sweet! She wanted the dogs to get acquainted with her before the stay, but I didn't have the time. Still, I appreciated the gesture. She was also very open to my schedule and was willing to watch my dogs at a very early time. She frequently gave me updates and photos which was a bonus. Would definitely come back to have her watch over Haru and Kobi again! ? A++++ experience.

Gretchen was great! She communicated with me daily and sent pics of my baby. It was my first time using Rover and I have a small dog (10 lbs) who is used to being at home with me. It was nice to know my fur baby was with other small dogs and the daily updates from Gretchen were comforting. I would recommend Gretchen, especially if you have a small dog. I will use her again.

Kim was AMAZING! She took care of our dog Peppers in her home for several days and sent daily pictures and updates, which we SO appreciated! She was also very flexible and accommodating with our schedule as we were traveling. Our dog enjoyed playing with her dog and seemed to have a very fun time with personal attention while he was there. He came home very happy and tired! When my husband picked up our dog she had packed his things nicely and even gave us a treat bag and card. We are so thankful to have found her and look forward to booking with her again!

Sarah was awesome. She was so attentive to my little Gabi. After i explained her situation and her small disabilities she took great care of her. Sent me constant updates and photos. She even sent her home brushed out and smelling pretty! I knew Gabi was in good hand so I could relax and enjoy myself. Sarah will have my business from now on. Thanks again Sarah see you soon!

Ashley was just absolutely amazing! If I could give her 10 stars, I 100% would! She really went above and beyond taking care of our girl! We really enjoyed the consistent check-ins and pictures and appreciate the extra time she took to let us know how Harley was doing while we were away! I was so thrilled that she actually seemed to take the time to get to know our fur baby and treated her like one of her own! This was our first time boarding Harley, but Ashley made it so smooth and stress-free! Would definitely recommend and will be booking with her again in the future!

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.

Kelli and John were hands down the BEST Rover sitters we’ve ever used. They truly love dogs and I had no doubt that they took the best care of our Golden Retriever. I received updates and pictures throughout the stay, and there is no better feeling to know that your pup is in great care. No doubt that we will use them again in the future. Thank you, thank you!
