“Hannah absolutely loves Sam. She starts getting ready for him to come half an hour before he gets here. She starts circling the door and she’ll just sit in front of the door until he shows up and after he leaves she keeps going to the door just to make sure he’s not coming back, he’s been a godsend since I broke my hip and can’t take her on her 7 mile walk anymore. I’m so grateful to have somebody that Hannah attached to so quickly. Thank you so much Sam for being Hannah‘s new best buddy.”


“Kat was absolutely amazing. I originally asked for 1 walk but then I realized I wouldn’t be getting back to my babies for another day. When I let Kay know she was eager to help and walk my babies again the next morning. She even fed them! When I got back they were happy to see me but I know they enjoyed Kat! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You are a life saver!!!”


“Lulu has been wonderful! She has been walking my 10 month old puppy who was not great on a leash but seems to be doing well! My puppy cries for her when she drops her off! Lulu is very punctual and professional and has answered any questions I have. She also leaves a detailed report after each walk. I would highly recommend her!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds professionally for two years, but I grew up in a home that was always filled with pets! I’m a college student during the week and looking to give loving, genuine animal care on the weekends! I’m free Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays unless stated otherwise! My schedule will open up more once school is out for the summer! I have a big fenced in yard with a house full of pets! Any pets looking to stay with me will need to be ANIMAL FRIENDLY! I have a home with dogs, cats, small animals and reptiles. The dogs and cats are the only free roaming pets so as long as your pet is dog and cat friendly then that’s ok! I also have crates if your pet would need to be kenneled for any reason!

About: A life long love of all animals! Starting back as a kid helping at the horse barn, becoming a dog trainer fresh out of high school, working at multiple dog daycares, and being a dog groomer for 8 years! Now active in dog sports, and showing, i bring a abundance of knowledge and background to help your pup be happy and loved while your away! Dog have morning let out right away and on days i work (as a dog groomer) they are up for half a day and have out time the rest of the day/evening! Fenced yard, well trained personal dogs who are extremely friendly, multiple places to kennel/separate and all the knowledge to keep your pets safe and happy!

About: I've had pets since I was seven years old. I've had an American Eskimo and a Westie. I've walked German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, Golden Retrievers, Great Danes, Labrador Retrievers, Cocker Spaniels, American Eskimos, Westies, Shetland Sheepdogs, Dachshunds, Boston Terriers and Shih Tzus. Not only have I walked dogs, but I had a cat who loved going in my enclosed stroller. All my other cats don't care for it. If you have a smaller dog who is either older or is unable to walk very well, they can enjoy a walk, too! I love the company of a fur baby when walking. Since I have cats, I get my dog fix by walking these wonderful, loving animals. I'm retired and dog walking fits easily into my routine. I have an occasional appointment, but I can work those appointments around dog walking. I'd be available during my scheduled time for walking. I make sure I take water on my walks when the weather is warmer. If a small dog travels in the stroller, I put an ice pack under a towel to help keep them cool. Comfort and hydration is important. I also pick up any "jobs" your pet may do while on our walk. I don't have an official certification for dog CPR, but I know how to do it. I have pets, so I want to be able to do CPR if needed.

About: I have had dogs all my life growing up and I have trained them since I was 12, as well as walked them, groomed them, and fed them. I am well versed in reading dogs body language and behaviors. I have experience working at a doggy daycare and have experience watching and caring for multiple dogs at once, of all sizes. I am comfortable administering medicine to dogs or cats who need it. I want your dog to feel as comfortable as possible, so if boarding your pup is too expensive, or if they need one on one time, I can care for your pup as if they were my own. I currently attending college in the evenings so I am available most of the day everyday of the week, I can fit my schedule around your pets needs. I want your dog to feel safe while you are away, which is why I will care for your pet as if they are my own. If they are active and willing, I will play with them and take them on walks. If they aren't that active, I'm more than happy to sit next to them for comfort. I will clean up their messes as soon as they happen and make sure I left home as it was, or cleaner!

About: I’ve been around pets of all kinds my whole life from cats and dogs to chickens and horses. I’ve also always helped my grandparents to feed and bath their babes I work full time but am available on weekdays or the weekends. My schedule with work is very flexible if it is needed. We go on nightly walks and frequent park visits. My three kids and I love animals, we have plenty of space to roam in the house or I also have a large fenced yard.

“We have been using Joseph for a while now with our pit bulls. Joseph is great walking both strong dogs and very communicative. We are lucky to have found Joseph and highly recommend him.”


About: Hi! My name is Madison and I am a healthcare worker looking for animals to care for! I have a pup of my own (a bull terrier named Duke), that I just adore, and would love to care for your pet just the same. I will come with lots of cuddles for your lazy doggos, or lots of energy for the playful ones! I also grew up with cats, so I have experience with caring for them as well. If you have a reptile (snake, gecko, etc.) I also have experience feeding with crickets, frozen thawed mice, and live pinkies! I also keep freshwater fish, so I am available for feedings/water changes. Since there is not an option for other animals, please just book for a cat service, and let me know what kind of animal you have! I am currently only available on the weekends for walking and drop-in visits. Occasionally I am available during the week, so please reach out if you have any questions! I am no stranger to picking up messes, and would take great care of your pet as well as keeping your home clean in the process.

About: **NOTE: If you are outside of my normal service preferences, please still request, particularly if you have a pet that has medical or behavioral concerns. I am extremely comfortable with unique behavioral/medical needs and I find great joy in working with these animals. I have always loved animals. This was amplified when I completed an internship at an exotic animal sanctuary on their animal care team. After this, I trained as a veterinary technician at a senior dog sanctuary specializing in hospice care. When I moved to KC, I worked as a vet tech under a renowned veterinary orthopedic surgeon. I was the lead vet tech for a high-volume clinic where I was the lead surgery and dental tech, emergency tech, and euthanasia tech, and I oversaw the vet tech schedule and controlled substance logs. I am comfortable administering injections (insulin, for example), administering subcutaneous fluids, delivering triage care in an emergency with your animal, and monitoring heart rates, respiratory rates, and capillary refill times. On a personal level, I am the proud mom of a one-eyed French Bulldog, a senior Chihuahua, a ball python, a milk snake, and an eyelash-crested gecko. In the past, I have been a parent to hamsters, rats, a guinea pig, a corn snake, and multiple fish species. I currently work as a Behavioral Interventionist for a district that participates in four-day weeks. For the summer, I have open availability. The school year will begin again 8/11/25 for me which will leave me with full availability for Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays and availability from 5 am to 8 am and after 5 pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays until the end of May, holiday breaks being the exception. When you request a time for a visit, I will care for your pets within one hour before or one hour after the requested time unless there is a special circumstance such as medication administration needed at exact times. For example, if you request a drop-in visit at 12pm, the visit may start anywhere from 11am to 1pm in order to accommodate unexpected situations where I need to spend more time with an animal. An animal's safety is my highest priority. I am trained in safe dog introductions and reading animal body language. Additionally, I am trained to safely intervene if an interaction between animals becomes aggressive to minimize injury to the animals and myself. I am well versed in identifying potential emergency medical situations and will respond quickly to reduce stress on your beloved pet. I would like to know immediately if something is wrong with one of my babies, and it is essential to show you the same respect.

About: I have had a dog in my life since I was born so I know how to take care and prioritize their needs. I love getting to know each dog and make sure they are most comfortable and that I can do what I need to for them. I also watch out for dogs a lot I’m very reliable I have done it for family and friends. I am currently not working. I wanted to do this job because it would be something I really can enjoy and look forward to since I do love being around dogs. And my schedule will be very flexible since I do have a lot of free time! I live in an apartment complex that has a dog park and lots of walking trails for the dogs. And I also have a nice and coast house that would be a good scenery and comfortable place for the dogs to be in.

About: Ask me how to get $20 off your first booking!! Hi, I’m Gabby! I’m a dog momma to my Luna girl, a 8 year old Lab/Australian Shepherd Mix and Leala a 6 year old mixed breed. Both pups are rescues and have been the best thing that’s ever happened to me!

About: Ive owned dogs my entire life up until my last dog passed, since then I have decided to take care of dogs when people need someone they can trust. I love all dogs and have experience with senior dogs as well as dogs who have seizures and/or have to take medication. I work in the healthcare field, I only work 3 days a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) I do work 12-14 hour shifts but if I have enough time I can request to leave early to be able to go home on breaks to care for your babies. I work from 4am- around 3pm, I am available to drop in to check on your pet after work and/or take your pet on a walk and give them some exercise. I do not offer in home sitting due to having two cats of my own, I do not want the chance of any animal getting stressed out. I like to come by before you leave to get a layout of everything and learn your pets routine so that they can still have a sense of normalcy while you are gone.
