Korbin is reliable, quick to respond to requests and does a great job communicating any hiccups like a stray dog on our street or low battery on our door’s keypad.

Nadia was absolutely amazing. She was patient with me while booking as I had some questions. She did not hesitate to video chat and help reassure me everything would be fine with my concerns. When she actually came to walk Lumi she brought her doggy too which made my puppy feel a lot better. Nadia sent pictures, updates, and any information that would make me feel like Lumi was safe and had a great time. She also helped Lumi learn new tips during his walk. You can tell Nadia has experience with dogs of many ages. I’ll definitely be using Nadia again in the future when I need help and if you’re reading this you should not hesitate to book her for your doggy needs!

Very happy with Dustyn so far. He is quick to respond to requests, respectful, punctual, and somehow gets our dog to walk quicker with him than with us 😉 Theodore seems happy with Dustyn so we are too.

About: I have been dealing with dogs and other animals my whole life and I feel very confident in my ability to take care of them without struggle. I am a part-time college student, which leaves a lot of spare time to take care of whatever the animal may need and still maintain a healthy work-life balance. I will make sure to follow the instructions left to me by the owner and provide updates if needed. Also, I’ll make sure that when you return to your pet that they will be a happy and taken care of animal.

About: I have always since I was a kid DREAMED of getting all different kinds of animals. I currently own 3 different species of geckos/lizards and love all animals! I have done lots of research on my own of all different types of animals and do regularly! I am a college student online so I want to be working part time. I can always go to watch your animal and care for them and do my schoolwork on my computer if that would work for you. In most circumstances I can come care for the animals at the clients home. I can be trusted to stick to your schedule/instructions for your animals daily needs and will always respect the privacy of your home.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have always loved being around animals. I have experience walking dogs and have also done overnight pet sitting for both dogs and cats from time to time. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like my own—with love, attention, and care. I’m comfortable and confident with dogs of all kinds—big or small, shy or energetic—and always prioritize their safety and happiness. I’m a student-athlete at Washburn and also work part-time, but I always make time for pet care because I truly enjoy it. My schedule is flexible around classes and work, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m great at planning ahead and will always make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any instructions carefully, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets feel loved and secure. I take time to build trust with each animal and always respect their routine and space.

About: I have been working for a dog boarding and daycare facility for about a year and a half now! I have learned lots about dog behavior and how to interact with lots of different personalities- and I am still learning every day! I have experience in administering medications and would love to meet your pup! I currently work full-time caring for pets at a daycare facility, typically working either 6-1 or 1-7 Tuesday through Saturday. Fully available on Sunday and Monday! I have my own pup who is fixed and very friendly! I can bring him along if you want your dog to have any socialization or burn extra energy, but I am also more than happy to focus on your pet!

About: I’ve had cats and dogs from the time I was 10 and everything from a St Bernard to cats. I can ensure you that your pet will be cared and lived for while they are with me. I currently work from home and can provide around the clock watch care. When I’m not working I like to spend my time with my cat and dog. For drop in care I can take your dog on walks or whatever you would like. If it is overnight care in my home they can have as much outside time or as little as they like. I have a fenced yard as well. I do not provide overnight care at the clients home.

About: I'm not certified to train animals, but I'm happy to continue working on any training already in progress, and I'm able and capable to give meds as needed. I am done with school and I work part time so my schedule is flexible and allows me to take care of your animals when needed. I help give my own dog her required nightly meds. Previously, I've house sat with animals and let them out to go to the bathroom as needed and fed them as instructed.

About: I've had experience with both small and large dogs. I can handle taking large dogs out for walks, playing with them when they need attention, and even cleaning up puke for any more elderly dogs that struggle holding their meal in. I have experience administering medication, as well as overnight experience for when your dogs feel extra lonely and need a friend at night. My passion is animals, so being able to provide your pets with the care they need while you're gone makes me happy! I'm currently a full time college student at K-State. I'm usually pretty busy Mon, Wed, Fri from 10am-4pm and Tues, Thurs from 11am-2pm. I'm completely free during early mornings, evenings, and weekends! I have a dog at home that I would regularly take out on walks, make sure he has food and water available, and of course provide attention as he's getting older and more needy. I regularly dogsit for my Aunt, so when I stay at her home I let the dogs out to her fenced backyard to do their business. She also has specific diets they're on so I take the time to prepare their food twice a day, making sure they have water constantly.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a very long time. I own a cockapoo named BaeLee and she is the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet. I take care of my family’s and friend’s dogs all the time from watching them, playing with them, feeding them, and walking them. I am very good with dogs and can be very patient if I need to be. I take care of my pup daily. From the time I wake up until I go to sleep I am always attentive to her needs. Every now and then I’ll take care of my uncles dog throughout the day and take him out every two hours. I am very nice and patient with animals. I love to pet them and play fetch or tug of war. I do not like to touch other’s things when I go to their houses and I respect their rules. I don’t do what I wouldn’t like done in my home to other’s homes.

About: I have taken care of dogs before. I have a bigger dog and smaller cat of my own at home but not in Kansas. I love all types of animals!! I’m currently in school but am available most hours of everyday. I don’t have any other obligations during the weekdays so I am very flexible. I am willing to work with whatever the owner would like. I am definitely willing to spend the night if necessary and can let out however often the owner would like.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable, experienced pet care provider with a flexible schedule and hands-on experience with dogs of all personalities, including those who are shy or slow to warm up. I’ve worked closely with behavioral specialists, so I’m comfortable reading dog body language, following care instructions, and managing different routines or environments. Whether your pup needs a friendly face for walks, check-ins, or companionship while you’re away, I take pride in providing thoughtful, stress-free care. I’m organized, attentive to details, and always prioritize safety and comfort—wherever your dog is happiest. Remote job, flexible schedule. Monday-Friday only, weekends are generally open outside of planned events and activities. I finish work at 5pm daily, but it's a very adaptable work routine. When it comes to care routines, I'm consistent and structured. I typically do potty breaks at minimum every two hours and provide walks one to two times daily, adjusting the length based on each dog's energy level and preferences. Fresh water and food are always available unless you specify otherwise. I keep my own dog separate from visiting dogs unless they've had time to become familiar with each other, which helps everyone feel more secure.

Stephanie has been incredibly accommodating to helping walk our dog while we are away. Since my parents are not able to walk him for very long it has been wonderful working with Stephanie several times per week to help with this. She has been very responsive and helpful!

About: "If you can look at a dog and not feel vicarious excitement and affection, you must be a cat." ~Terri Guillemets Love dogs (and animals in general, but dogs especially.) I have been around them my whole life and wouldn't want it any other way. I come from a large, mostly rural dwelling family, my grandma had 11 kids 2/3 of which have at least 1 or more dog(s) including my mom. I've always had my own and/or lived with roommates/friends/family, that have/had dog(s) in every house I've lived from day 1 to the present. Although I can't say I've taken care of every breed out there (doubt that many people can) I have definitely seen my fair share of mutts and purebreds alike; from Corgis to Chihuahuas, Danes to Dobermans, Lhasa Apsos to Shar Peis, and even a couple of wolves (3/4 mixes) as well as a few rodents, cats, reptiles, arachnid and birds. Big or small I love "em all, but if you forced me to pick a favorite I'd have to go with the affectionate yet intimidating Perro de Presa Canario. In short, if either by choice or necessity you find yourself in need of a caretaker for your 4-legged (or more) companion(s), know that I would be elated for the opportunity and you can be assured that their health and well-being will invariably be at the forefront of my mind in all that I do while they're in my care. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you soon. "Lots of people talk to animals.... Not very many listen, though.... That's the problem." ~Benjamin Hoff, The Tao of Pooh
