“The best puppy-sitter ever!! Goose (my dog) was always so excited to see Heather and Banjo! She takes amazing care of all the dogs in her care and ensures they are happy and safe while they’re with her. Thank you for everything!!”

About: Welcome to the Lapdog Lounge!! I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, with many years dedicated to small breeds—especially Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes. I understand their quirky, lovable personalities and the extra TLC they sometimes need to feel safe and at home. I genuinely enjoy helping petite pups feel secure, cherished, and comfortable—whether we’re snuggling on the couch or just keeping each other company. Because I focus on caring for small dogs in my home, I welcome small breeds of all kinds under 25 pounds. This helps ensure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and able to relax in a cozy, low-stress environment where little dogs can truly thrive. I take a limited number of guests so I can provide the best care - booking are first come, first served once confirmed. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home almost all the time, so your pet will never feel alone or forgotten. Pet care is part of my daily routine, and I love providing attention, structure, and affection—whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or cozy companionship. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. From a secure setup to thoughtful routines, here’s what you can expect when your pup stays at the Lapdog Lounge: • 🏡 A fully fenced, secure backyard for safe (and supervised!) zoomies • 🚧 A baby-gated setup indoors so I always know who’s where—no sneaky escapes here! • 👀 Outdoor time is always chaperoned—nobody’s out there alone • 🐾 Dogs get let out every couple hours for potty breaks, fresh air, and a good stretch—and they can always ask to go out whenever they need to! • 🍽️ Mealtimes are separate to keep things calm and cozy—every pup eats in peace • 🚫 No human food—just the treats your pup is used to (plus I’ve got plenty on hand if you’re okay with sharing!) • 💤 A dedicated doggy sleep room where pups can snooze however they’re most comfy—bed, crate, or snuggled up with me and my crew • 🌙 Dogs are never left alone overnight—everyone gets tucked in safe and sound • ⏰ I’m happy to follow any special routines or schedules your pup needs to feel at home

“Mallory was so kind and genuine! Zaggy came home loved, tired, and happy. Im so glad we found her for our day trip. Our boy took to Mallory so fast and in the many photo updates. He looked like he was having a blast! 12/10 we will be visiting Mallory again 😊”

“Our dogs are like our babies, and leaving them with someone else really scared us, but Amanda made it all super easy, Lilo and Lola connected with Amanda and with her family and felt right at home, we 100% recommend her to take care of your dog, we will definitely bring our babies to Amanda again. She kept us posted all day, understood their body language, pampered them and was amazing with them, when we pick them up they were calm and happy. Great experience, if you are looking for someone to care for your dogs Amanda is the one!”

“Kaitlin was so kind and quick to communicate! She was able to help us out with a last minute booking and watch our puppy when we made a stop in Springfield. We will definitely book again if the situation arises!”

“Jill was wonderful with Baby. So happy she was available to care for our little girl. I felt so comfortable, I actually forgot she was with a sitter!”

“Raquel was so great with our 4mo old puppy during our first doggy daycare. She helped her socialize with the other dogs and was very mindful of size/age differences and always had a safety-first mindset. We loved the picture updates and video messages to put our minds at ease for our first day away from our fur-baby. Can't wait to use Raquel again in the future. Thanks!”

Zach F.

“Jackie and Michael were so great with my high maintenance young doberman! Although we live hours away, I would make the drive and use them again in a heartbeat. I’ve never seen my dog so at home with someone else. I highly recommend them!”

Crystal W.

“Wicket ran up to Tracy as if she was a long lost friend! He didn’t have any anxiety when I left. Tracy made my fur baby feel safe and secure. She was wonderful!”

Julie R.

“Super responsive, nice, and great place to drop your dogo off for the day. Sent updates all day. My puppy was tuckered out by the time I picked him up. Thank you Gretchen!”

“Marlow had an awesome time with Mickayla and her pups. She even had another puppy booked which Marlow became best buds with. Mickayla sent lots of photos and videos throughout the day and Marlow came home so tired. Thankful Mickayla was so flexible with my work schedule and took such great care of Marlow!”

“I had the pleasure of leaving my fur baby in the care of Autumn, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her exceptional service. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Autumn is not only a true animal lover but also highly professional and attentive to the needs of her furry clients. My dog immediately felt at ease in Autumn's safe and welcoming environment. She took the time to understand his unique personality and needs, ensuring he felt comfortable and loved throughout his stay. The facility was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything necessary to keep my dog happy and healthy. Autumn provided regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing that my fur baby was in great hands. Her genuine care and dedication to the animals she looks after are truly commendable. I will definitely be returning to Autumn whenever I visit Branson again. Her exceptional care and warm, friendly demeanor make her the perfect choice for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving place to leave their pets. Thank you, Autumn, for taking such great care of my fur baby!”

About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs, cats, and horses from a young age. I also have experience in dog grooming, ranging from small to large dogs. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I am flexible as I work from home. I normally check pets at least two times a day, but more check in times are available upon request. I have a friendly dog who loves to play and make new friends. He will be very helpful in helping young dogs learn how to socialize.

“Isabella was a great sitter for our pup! She was exhausted for some much play time.”

“Linda is amazing! She’s super friendly and responded quickly to my urgent request for a place for Stormie to go today. I highly recommend her! Stormie had fun and is worn out from playing all day. ♥️♥️”

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Wow! She was so incredible with both my dogs, especially my problem child little Biewer who thinks she runs everyone and everything. She did just as I suggested with the Biewer, just deal with her as though you've always known her (without hesitation). Even with her two dogs, neither of our dogs had any issues. If anyone is hesitant about leaving your babies with someone, rest assured she will protect and care for your babies as you would ypurself.bWe will definitely be back!”

“Jared is a wonderful carer. Cara has a great time with him & his family. Came home happy & exhausted. We highly recommend him & will use him again.”
