“Abigail is great! I have two large dogs AND a cat and they had no trouble at all under Abigail’s care. She is insightful and caring, with a quick response time. I will definitely be booking her care again!”
“Justine, is amazing! We have 1 dog that is very hyper and 1 that is very timid and does not care for strangers but when Justine came over for our meet and great and they all did great with her we agreed we would try.

Thank you Justine, you are the best and love you.”

About: A dog has always been in my house growing up, except when I moved to lawrence to go to school/work. I learned to take care of dogs since I could walk. My first dog was a German Shepard. I learned how to brush, clean, feed, and exercise around 6 years old and have loved dogs ever since. From middle school until now I had a side gig of watching extended family/ friends dogs for the weekends, so I have worked with all types of dogs such as pit bulls, labs, Rottweilers, shorthairs, boxers, huskies, and I also have experience with small dog breeds such as pugs, terrors, mini poodles, and chihuahuas. So don’t worry about what breed of dog you have I am open to all kinds!
“Kayleigh was the absolute best with our 80 lb boxer and 55 lb pit mix. We had never had someone watch both at the same time since we rescued the pit, and it went really well. She even had to deal with our garage pad freezing. 10/10 recommend her for your babies needs. Will definitely look to rebook on our next outing!!”
“Responded to messages quickly and sent pictures daily while watching my dog, who always looked content and happy. I had great piece of mind that he was being well cared for in my absence!”
“Brent did a fantastic job taking care of our Ivy kitty while we were away for a few days. We came home to a content kitty and clean litter box. We will definitely use him for our next trip.”
About: I worked with a dog rescue for over a year. I was in charge of socialization of the severe abuse cases, exercising and feeding the 50+ dogs on our site. I have experience with 3 week old pups & bottle feeding, walking and loving on 150 pound dogs, and taking care of those with special needs & the elderly. I have personally fostered 10+ different dogs, usually strays I find. I'm a sucker for bully breeds and goofy ears, but all dogs will be sure to get excellent treatment and my undivided attention. I have one spoiled 9 year old hound mix with megaesophagus, so I'm used to giving pills to pups regularly! She's very chill and a good sport with all dogs and cats. I work a full-time job 8-5, M-F, but have flexibility to let dogs out over lunch! Let me spoil and love your pet like my own! I'm a full-time worker, but my job has extreme flexibility to let out pets over lunch or beforw/after work! I work 8-5p usually and can take a lunch whenever needed! I will always ask and adhere to whatever standards and schedule you have set for your pets! As for my dog, she is spoiled rotten. It's her world and I just live in it. That being said, she isn't destructive and is house trained. I do put on a vibrating/loud noise collar to deter barking when I'm not home since she is a hound. When she is outside on the lead, I sit on the porch with her for safety. Dogs are allowed on the couches and beds at my house. While I have a crate, I have never used it in the 3.5 years I've had my pup because I've never needed it. I have used crates with past fosters who benefited from that routine.
“Jessie did a wonderful job watching my house and taking care of my dog. I could tell after being gone 5 days that Cato was in good hands with the routine updates and pictures. Cato was happy to see me when I got home but was also relaxed. I could tell that he and Jessie got along great.”
About: I love dogs. You can expect me to love and care for your dog while you are out. I will play with your dogs and take care of thier needs while you are away. I used to Foster dogs. I work as a security officer. I work Saturday through Tuesday. Monday and Tuesday are nights but can come before I go to work and I have 3 days off in the row that I will be able to come at anytime. I love dogs and like I said I work but would love to work with dogs on my free and days off that I have. It will help with extra money and I will get to love and show affection to dogs as well. I am currently not working at the moment so I have a pretty open availability at the moment. When that changes I will update it on here. I will care for my clients dog like I would my own. I will make sure to give them attention and take them out and play with them take them for walks. I would notify you if something were to happen or if I notice the animal was acting off. I give my dog lots of attention and love we cuddle with each other.
About: I have always had dogs, and as an adult have done a lot of training work with my dogs including good canine citizen training and obedience. I believe dogs have their own desires and likes, and I encourage dogs to explore and enjoy life the way they want, in a safe environment. This means I only control a dog as needed to make them safe, and the rest of the time they can follow their nose and make decisions for themselves. Does the dog want to sniff every plant we pass- ok! Does the dog want to follow this animal track - yeah let’s go! Love digging- let’s head to the beach! I have had boxer dogs as an adult, and they are very expressive and will communicate what they want all the time- you just have to learn their language. I have honed the ability to learn and interpret dog sounds and body language to understand what they want. For my current dog, I started training him on the talking buttons so he can express more of what he wants, which has been amazing! We have a huge property with a swimming pond, so if your pup likes water, this will be heaven! Mine does and when he starts walking towards the pond I know it’s swim time! We have mowed path that is about 1 mile walk around the property as well, so plenty of walks and romps and swimming will be had! We work from home, with yard access and play throughout the rest of day. Our dog needs a lot of running, and having other dogs to play with is great for socialization too. We have a large yard, with a boxer who is great with small and large dogs. We all cuddle on the couch, walk, swim and play in the yard, and sleep in the same room.
