Pet Sitting in Atchison

“Rio is my pups favorite part of the day!! She does a great job with my frenchie and has followed all my instructions to the tee! Her communication is OUTSTANDING!!! She gives very thorough summaries of each visit with photos, and I honestly love reading them- it always makes my heart happy knowing my pup had a good visit!! I am a repeat client scheduled weekly with Rio and her care and communication has stayed consistent since day one. Reese loves you, Rio!!! I highly recommend Rio for your furry friend!!”

About: I’ve taken care of adult dogs and puppies. Potty training, and chewing training. Playing with them to help them exert energy, and bring the life back to them. I’ve helped with cleaning ears (helping restrain large dogs for the task), helped with administering meds for car trips. Transported dogs to vets offices (even with the bathroom trip in the middle😅). I am currently driving with DoorDash as another source of income , but I am completely able to work around your pets schedule and needs. If you need an additional check in on your pets if I’m out and about with DoorDash just send me a message and I’ll see to them as soon as I can! ❤️ My partner and I currently have a cat that we both take care of. And boy, is she spunky. She hates when her litter box isn’t clean, so, daily cleanings are a must. We check the water and make sure that it is always full (food too)! I make sure that they are entertained with toys and treats (and catnip for the cats)

“She took such good care of our 11 year old lab! We definitely recommend her to all of our friends!”

About: For the last 4 years my husband and I have had 4 dogs. He often travels, so I am usually caring for them alone. We have a husky, 2 pit-husky mixes, and a Belgium shepherd. I trained the Belgium shepherd from puppy age, and she’s now the sweetest and best guard dog out there! Our dogs can be stubborn at times, and I’ve even had to break up a couple of dog fights. I am able to handle difficult situations if your dog is a little tougher or not as friendly. I have always loved animals, especially dogs because of their loyalty and cuteness. From small dogs to large- I can care for them however you need and will treat them like they’re my own! I recently quit my job because we moved, so I have all the free time in the world! I can be flexible and stay with your pet to play longer if you need. Since we currently have 4 dogs we are not taking any pets to stay with us. However, we have a barn and hope to be able to house dogs there some day!

About: I’m an active adventurous person ready to play with the dogs or take them on walks. I have helped family, friends and neighbors watch their dogs, whether it be just a check in or a week at a time! Seeing as I have a cat of my own, I make sure to put her into my daily schedule and make time for her to play with her and her as well as make sure her litter stays clean and her food and water bowl stay full! My cat is an indoor cat. Although she is aloof, she still loves to come cuddle and I always make sure that her food and water bowls are full, her litter is clean and her medicine is taken

About: I’ve cared for animals both in and out of a veterinary setting. I’ll care for your dog like my own and treat them like family. I do have a full time job, but I am able to check in most days partially through the day. I work full time but will check in most days partially through the day. When I am at home puppies will be outside with me! I do not have a fenced yard, so a leash is a must. I will have a kennel set up to put outside once it starts staying nice outside! I will not leave unattended outdoors while I am away from home

About: I’ve been loving and taking care of animals all my life. I’ve loved them since I was a baby. I try to save every stray!

About: I have an immense love for animals and treat my own as if they were my children, giving them endless care, respect, and affection. Their happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I go above and beyond to ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. This deep connection extends to every pet I care for, making me an exceptional pet sitter. I am patient, responsible, and attuned to each animal’s unique needs, whether it’s playtime, special diets, or just providing comfort. My dedication and genuine passion for animals make me someone pet owners can trust completely. I am always at home. I do work from home. But that is a few hours per day and my schedule can be adjusted to the needs of any animal. I have a lead setup but all dogs will be taken on multiple walks a day. During bed time they would be with me unless requested by owner to be crated.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child. I love interacting and caring for animals. I have a special kind of love for animals I’m currently available anytime. I have open availability to help when needed at any time. Just would like a few days notice if possible 🙂 I have a leash in my back yard for the dogs to run. I am home 24/7 so able to be with the animals constantly.

“Tara was great! She completed all tasks very well. She left my house neat and clean w dishes done and garbage and recycling taken out. I’ve only used 3 other pet sitters and she was by far the best! We had a little difficulty communicating and operating around the bitter cold, snow and ice conditions, but she rallied. Tara is personable and conscientious - I would definitely book her again.”

About: Hello pet parents my name is Octavia (i prefer to go by my middle name)! I HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH MORE THAN JUST DOGS AND CATS SUCH AS CHICKENS AND DUCKS !! I am 20 years old and I LOVE animals!! Due to my Army career I live in a lot with my wife, my dog, and my kitten. Taking care of animals is my calling! I have now been in the Army for two years. I joined to further pursue my college education and become a veterinarian in the future. Iam extremely passionate about the care that animals receive. I have volunteered for lots of shelters since i was young to learn all about animals and their needs, so it is my duty to ensure that your fur baby is well taken care of. Being that i worked with a lot of trained animal handlers, I have experience with animals who have many special needs such as diabetes, aids, cancer, seniors, etc. I also have experience with many different ages and breeds of dogs/cats. I previously worked at a groomers and volunteered at a pet shelter. At both establishments I fed the animals, bathed them, played with them, and took them out for restroom breaks. | love to stay active so I go on a daily walk/run and I would love for your pet to accompany me. I have plenty of room in my schedule to spend quality time with your pet. This would include going to the park, play time, and even cuddle time! While you are gone from your sweet fur baby, I will be available for communication 80% of the time. I am more than happy to send updates on how your pet is doing upon request. Anything that makes you and your pets comfortable I am more than happy to do. The less stress there is for you and your fur baby the better! I am here for your needs!! I am extremely excited to be pet sitting again as l did this before I joined the military. I work from 9-5 for the time being until my shift changes but am truly excited to be able to rush home and care for your pets. I will always keep you updated on my schedule being that my hours change every 3 months. I have a dog and a kitten right now and I constantly do research on their diet and behavior and their well being to make sure I am giving them the best possible life that they deserve.

About: I have loved animals since forever. I cannot recall a time in my adult life that I did not have a furry friend. I have a long history of animal rescue transportation and some fostering in-between transportation runs. I have been house sitting and dog watching for friends and family for several years and truly enjoy it! Unfortunately, I recently lost my sweet Lucy at the age of 14. (She is the first picture with her blue stuffie ☺️) She fought the good fight! However CHF, an enlarged heart and heavy seizure activity became too much for her aging body and the good lord came calling to help her cross on over the rainbow bridge where she can roam and run pain free again. So, I decided to offer my love of animals to others' companions instead of adopting again and went to work part time for the veterinarian that walked the walk with us. The love of an animal is unconditional and healing and within that, there is peace 💛 I currently work for a vet clinic and also as a massage therapist with full control of my schedule therefore have the ability to adjust my days as needed. I pride myself in working hard to keep your pets schedule as close to their normal routine as possible. I feel consistency is important for them when their humans are absent.

About: I will treat all dogs as if they were my own, no breed preferences. My availability is open on weekdays (evenings) and weekends. My house is very pet friendly, as I have 4 dogs of my own! I have a large fenced in yard, and plenty of space inside as well. I have been around dogs my whole life, and would like to find a career that involves them eventually. I have experience with dogs of all ages and activity levels. I enjoy spending time outside going on walks, to the dog park and to the pet store! I’m currently working full time as Physical Therapy Assistant at a local nursing home, my hours are very flexible so I have plenty of extra time to love on your fur babies! I have a large fenced in yard, with 4 friendly pups that love to make friends! If your fur baby would like more privacy away from the others, I can gladly crate and separate as needed!

“Sabrina did great with lindsay. She remained calm and loved her. She didn't potty in the house at all. I will definitely use lindsay again.”
