“Kathryn was terrific with communication and taking care of my boy. She asked questions to better help my little guy adjust to the new routine and made some suggestions (bring his beds) that I hadn’t even thought of. Not only will I book with this family again, I also recommend them for anyone with a balanced dog!”
“Alyssa was great with our dog Maggie! We received pictures and updates daily, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Maggie can be a pretty anxious dog, but she seemed to be very comfortable at Alyssa's after a very short amount of time! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Used Rover for the first time. We were so lucky that I chose Mary! My dog loved her. She sent great daily updates. Picked up my dog and dropped off. Even had a small miscommunication (my fault) and she was quick to find a solution for my dog and I. I felt relieved having Mary watch my dog. Will be using her again in the future!”
“This was our first experience with Rover and therefore our first experience with Sam. We just have to say we could not be more pleased. We were visiting in Hutchinson, KS and our dog Elmer stayed overnight with Sam, his roommate and Trapper, a high energy, playful and very friendly dog. The two dogs meshed well wonderfully and got “lots of exercise” and play time. This was Elmer’s first night away from us as he is a recent adoptee and apparently he didn’t seem to miss us one bit. Sam was great about sending frequent updates and pictures while hosting Elmer which really helped alleviate any concerns we had. We wholeheartedly recommend Sam and would have no reservations about using his services again!”
About: Hey, my name is Yinka, and I’m excited to connect with pet owners who are looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! While I’m new to dog sitting, I lead a life of quick learning and reliability in everything I do. Spending time with dogs is something I’ve always envisioned, and I’m looking to build loving relationships with dogs of all kinds. Growing up, my sisters had a wiener dog, and ever since then, I’ve had a soft spot for those adorable little dachshunds! I’ve always thought about having a pet myself, and I’m looking forward to sharing my time and care with your furry friend in the meantime. I may not have prior professional experience, but what sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and dedication to treating them with care and kindness. I work a 9-to-5 job during the week, which means I’m typically available on weeknights and weekends. This flexibility allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your dog, whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just hanging out. Living on my own also makes it easy to adjust my schedule to meet your pup’s needs. As someone who values trustworthiness and reliability, I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and kindness I’d give my own. I take safety seriously and will follow any instructions or routines you provide to ensure your dog feels comfortable and loved. Whether in your home or during outings, I’ll create a safe and caring environment where your dog can relax, have fun, and feel completely secure.
“Diamond was absolutely wonderful! She sent me lots of updates and photos during my pet's stay with her, she returned his bowls and crate clean, and my pup was happily exhausted when we got him home. Definitely recommend!”
About: I've taken care of cats ever since I was young and dogs more recently. Girlfriend and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets... I currently work full-time 2nd shift. So although I won't be free in afternoon I'll have all morning to play with either your pups or cats! I'm available for boarding on Friday and Saturday after 3pm. I have a fenced yard, two friendly dogs that my girlfriend occasionally brings over for the night when she visits, and a cat who's a little timid at first, but once he warms up he is very affectionate and enjoys company.
About: I’ve grown up my entire life with dogs ranging from chihuahua to Great Dane, cats, rabbits, rats, ferrets and a bird so I’m definitely fit to care for any pet! I am currently a college student looking to make some extra money and spending time with animals I love. I want my schedule to work for your pet :) I have a calico kitty named Grasshopper, Watson a one-year-old boy, and a 12-year-old man named Cloud! My boyfriend who lives with me is also a huge animal lover who works at Raise Your Paws and has a passion for training and working with dogs.
About: I've dealt with giving meds to all pets whether it's good additives or for arthritis and much more, very good observation to bring up any concerns I may see with your babies. And loads of play time and treats . I work first shift so after 330 I'm available during the week. I'm also available on weekends completely. I'm so excited to meet your fur babies. I love dogs and cats we have two big dogs one is a German shepherd and the other is an alstralian golden retriever mix both about 5 years old .

“When Yinka was needed, he would willingly care for our family dog. Although they didn't know each other well, Yinka was patient, tender and responsible in his care for our dog. He shows no bias when it comes to taking care of animals!”

Zachery L.
“Zach has been so wonderful with my two dogs whenever I take them over to him. He's really good at putting them first and making sure they get their nutrients and play time. He tends to brush them too so when I get my babies back they're so soft!!”
Akyra R.
“An avid pet lover and pet mom herself, Akyra will give any animal the kind of compassion and care you want your pet to receive. She is willing to go the extra mile, insuring your pet isn’t just cared for, but given the love they deserve as well. Given her experience in pet sitting for me during extended periods of time, I can whole heartedly say Akyra would be a wonderful and responsible caregiver. I highly recommend her as someone to trust with your animal best friend!”
