Doggy Day Care in Archie

“Linda and Michael were amazing. We will definitely use them anytime we are back in the KC area. They were kind, showed us their space, great with communication and sent us pictures so we knew our doodle was taken care of. 10 out of 10 recommend! Nora had a great time.”

“Alyson was so thoughtful in the planning and run up to my dog staying at their house. I had Spike stay daily for a week while my wife was travelling. Alyson and family were flexible in when I could drop off and then pick up the four legged grandson. Spike was not happy about it the first morning because it broke up his routine. The next morning he was happy and ready to go meet up with Dexter and be dog buddies for the each day. I will be using Alyson in the future to babysit Spike. Danny”

“My GRIM just stayed with Aubrey today and I am not waiting to write a review! I am so so happy he got to experience a great play day with her and her dog after our last experience with another sitter a few weeks ago. I will definitely be reaching out to Aubrey every time I need a sitter from now on! She had no issues watching my pitbull breed. She fed him and gave me the food back that he didn’t eat instead of leaving me wondering how much he had ate. She sent me multiple pictures throughout the day. She had all of his stuff ready to go when I got there to pick him up. She had a clean and very spacious fenced back yard for them to run around in all day. She and her family were very friendly and welcoming. I could not have asked for anything more!”

“Alan and his wife were absolutely incredible. They made the whole process easy from the get-go, starting with the meet and greet. My dog Riley can be very anxious around new people, but Alan and his wife were super patient and gained the trust of Riley very quickly. He sent lots of pictures and made me feel very comfortable knowing that Riley was in good, loving hands. I will definitely be leaving Riley with them again!”

I have cared for friend's pets on many occasions and it truly feels like I should be the one paying for the cuddles. ;) I am a stay at home mom so I am available to work around schedules. I have 5 animal loving kids who enjoy all the new faces to play with. There are acres for dogs to run on a leash on our property and we just added 2 large fenced in areas for them to run leash free. They can visit the creek and relax in the shade. Pups will be kenneled at night or if I need to leave to run errands. I have open kennels here available. If your pet is not used to being kenneled and is fully potty trained, then they are fine roam the house.

“Kelci was a fantastic sitter for our puppy. As soon as you meet her you can sense her genuine love for animals. They took such great care of Winston and we could tell he was comfortable with their family and other pets when we came to pick him up. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands with lots of space to play! We will definitely be choosing Kelci again!”

About: I’ve spent my entire life caring for and loving animals. I was farm raised so my love for animals stretches beyond just cats and dogs. I have had experience with all ages of animals from newborns to seniors in their last stages of life. In the last few years I’ve fostered many animals in hopes of giving them a second chance at life. My pets are my family and I’ll ensure your pets feel welcome and safe with me too! I work from home allowing me to be with the pets almost all the time. I am able to accommodate almost any food or potty schedule, helping pets feel less stressed and in a familiar routine. I have a large fenced yard and two very sweet dogs to keep your pets entertained. We also have a cat who sticks to herself but who also isn’t afraid of new animals. We have 3 children from age 8-16. I can accommodate most schedules including feedings, walking, potty breaks, medicines or any other special needs that your pet might have. Do not hesitate to ask if your pet has special diets, treatments or routines to see if we can make it work.

About: I have a degree in Animal Science and I was a vet tech throughout college. Then I was a zookeeper for 4 years caring for and training big cats, canids, and a large variety of other species. Next, I managed the feline department at a large, local animal shelter, and now I am professional positive reinforcement horse trainer. I have high standards and know your pets deserve only the best. I've got you and your pets covered! I mostly work from home, so your pets in boarding will be with me most of the time! My dogs and two cats are all highly socialized and get along well with others so there will always be someone to play with. Or, I can easily keep your pets separated from mine, without limiting their space or time with me. My schedule is somewhat flexible so just tell me what you need! I have high standards for my animals both personally and professionally. I will follow detailed instructions to keep your pets' life consistent and comfortable! I'll send you plenty of updates and pictures to put your mind at ease!

About: I have been around dogs and a variety of other animals my entire life. As stated above I’m a Registered Vet Tech and have no problems caring for all sizes, ages and shapes of dogs. I have no problem administering medication, be it pills or insulin. I’ve worked in clinic, the KCZoo, Boarding Facilities and Shelters. Your Pets will be in great hands with me! I work remotely so would be home with your pet almost always. We take care of our four pups full time and care for my parents seven pups when we do chores out at the farm. With a specialty in large breed dogs- we’ve had Saints, Danes, Wolfies, Mastiffs and I was head volunteer at the Great Pyrenees Rescue of Iowa until we moved to Missouri. We also have experience with the high energy “snow” breeds with a Husky and a Malamute We have a small house in Harrisonville Missouri where I have four dogs of my own. All of which are spayed and friendly with other pets. We require meet and greets prior to any boarding or daycare request to be sure all dogs co-mingle happily :) Keep in mind we have 2 small children (under 3 years old) who are raised to be respectful of all animals, but if your pup is not comfortable with kids this may not be their most comfortable option.

About: I have been pet sitting since before my children were born and they are now grown. I am a young retiree with lots of time, but I am also active enough to keep up with even the most energetic babies. Most pets do better in their own environment and routine. Advanced notice is required to prior to gather all the information necessary to ensure a smooth process. Spoiling your pet with all the attention they require is my top priority. With house sitting services, you have the added bonus of having your home looked after as well. When appropriate, I also offer boarding services in my home one client at a time. ***My dog will stay with me on all house sitting bookings*** I adjust my schedule to your meet your babies needs. Your babies come first, my schedule comes second. I am retired, so I spend the vast majority of the day with them. During the meet and greet, I gather all the information needed in order to keep their routine as close as possible to their current routine.

“Kassidy did a wonderful job watching my dog Sarge! She sent me some super cute pics during his stay, and he was tired out by the time I picked him up. I’ll definitely have him stay here again in the future!”

About: I’ve owned pets my entire life. From larger breeds to small, I’ve owned them all. We currently have a two year old female Goldendoodle that is super spoiled and friendly, and 10 month old female cat that is also super sweet and friendly! They compete our family! I’ve also cared for family and friends’s pets when needed, so I have lots of experience taking care of other peoples fur babies! I currently work from home, so I have lots of flexibility in my day to tend to a dogs daily needs. I have availability through the week and most weekends as well! I have a fenced in yard and one friendly Goldendoodle that would love to entertain a furry guest! I can crate if desired but for the most part your dog will be treated like family. Our dog is our big baby and spends her day around us and not kenneled throughout the day or night. We used to use her crate at night when she was a puppy and potty training, but she no longer needs it, so she typically sleeps in a room with one of our children. We can try to best accommodate your routine requests to keep your pet feeling right at home!

About: My husband and I currently live in Olathe and I work in the Overland Park area. We are huge animal lovers and have more than 6 years of Extra-large breed dog ownership and care. We have had (2) St. Bernard’s and a Labrador. So it is safe to say that I am a confident large-dog walker/caretaker. I also spent my high school and college years farm sitting, which consisted of caring for multiple types of animals at one time, most very large! It is my goal to make you feel confident that not only is your pet given adequate exercise and care, but that they are cared for safely and with the same standards that I have for my own animals. Cats are also more than welcome! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I work from home and am present all day. This flexibility allows me to provide continuous attention and care to your pets, ensuring they receive the companionship and supervision they need. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, regular walks, playtime, and any special care instructions throughout the day. This constant presence helps maintain a stable environment for your pets, contributing to their well-being and happiness. Caring for pets in my home or my clients’ homes involves maintaining their routines, providing regular meals, administering medications if needed, and ensuring they receive plenty of exercise and affection. I also keep their living spaces clean and safe, engage them with stimulating activities, and monitor their health and behavior closely. Consistent communication with pet owners ensures I meet all specific needs and preferences, providing peace of mind and excellent care for their beloved pets.
