About: I’ve been around pets ever since I can remember and have always had at least 1 dog if not 2. I find genuine joy in spending time with animals and would love nothing more than to spoil your babies like my own! I work your normal M-F 8-5 so through the week I could do early morning and evening visits. On the weekends I can do sporadic visits through the day. I haven’t met a dog I don’t love. I will treat them as if they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of loves and mental stimulation!

With experience ranging from the playfulness of kittens and puppies to the gentle, specific needs of senior pets, I pride myself on providing nurturing care tailored to your pet's unique personality. I’m highly organized and detail-oriented, ensuring that feeding schedules, medications, and house rules are followed to the letter.

As a pet parent myself, safety is my top priority, and I pay great attention to detail specifically in that matter.

“Amazing communication, and was able to let animals out last minute.”

About: I have had pets my whole life up! I'm a full time stay at home mom with 3 kiddos (2 in school and 1 not in school cause shes a baby!) I am looking to earn a little pocket change while hopefully helping someone out with their fur babies. Most times I will have to come with my baby in her carrier for now, but certain times I may be able to work around that, so please dont hesitate to ask! I am willing to travel as far as Kansas City/Overland Park, Pittsburg, and Joplin/Springfield, or basically within an hour and half for house sitting. As a mom I am not able to stay in your home for house sitting, I could consider pet care inside my home on a case-by-case basis. For daily walks, we will have to agree on a price if its farther than Nevada, El Dorado Springs. I live on a few acres with cats, a dog, chickens, and ducks. I have experience with a lot of different types of animals as well including fish and smaller caged critters. I have experience working with service dogs as well. If you have any questions, please reach out! Im super flexible and would love to be able to help you any way that I can. I am a stay at home mom with 2 of 3 kiddos in school. My schedule is very open. Whatever work you're needing with your animals, please reach out. Animal care in my home will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Animal care in your home will be as requested by you. I typically could not do overnight care as I've got kiddos in school and will most likely have to travel a bit to help you with your animals, but on weekends or breaks I can consider it.

About: Animals of all sorts are drawn to me and I them! I grew up with the nickname Dr. Doolittle. I not only have experience caring for domestic pets but exotic pets too! I'll always treat your little buddy with warmth and love. I like to stay active and happy, and caring for your pet would do just the trick. I'd like to make money doing something that means a lot to me. I visit them, and give them a bit of attention and love before feeding them and/or crating them. I can give them enrichment and exercise.

“Kaylee was great!! She took amazing care of my 2 cats while I was away for 2 weeks, getting them plenty of play time and sending pictures of them every morning with little write ups of their moods and activities. She also went above and beyond when obstacles arose with their food supply and my changed schedule. It was a huge relief knowing my cats were being well cared for by someone that clearly loves animals. She’ll be their go-to sitter from now on”

About: I recently retired from being a Kennel Manager at a rescue for 4 years. I loved it so much! However it was my time to go. In the last four years I’ve handled puppies to seniors. All disabilities and assortments of care. I know how to handle and approach every type of dog and cat. I have only been bitten one time in 4 years and it was my fault. I’ve taken Obedience classes and even have minor grooming skills. I have had several liters of puppies in my time all very successful unless due to illness. I’m currently working part time and have lots of time to play with your fur babes! I’m a very active person and try to stay that way. Being able to walk your pet while I get my cardio on is a win win! I’m a huge animal lover with time to love on your fur babe. We use basic training with our pets and the word “No”. We believe in positive reinforcement and kennel training. Lots of training treats! Our dogs get to run the house freely they are all trained and my partner works from home. I would use whatever technique the owners use to stay consistent. I would never harm a dog in any manner.
