About: Hi! I’m Ashley, I'm a lifelong dog lover who’s excited to help care for your pup. I work from home two days a week and offer loving, dependable care whether your dog needs companionship, walks, or just someone to check in while you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities — from high-energy puppies to chill senior dogs — and I always take time to learn what makes each one happiest. Whether it’s belly rubs, structured walks, or cozy couch naps, I’ll match your dog’s vibe. I pride myself on keeping a calm, safe space with plenty of attention when I’m home. When I’m out, I make sure they’re secure, comfortable, and on their routine. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing! Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet — I’d love to connect and learn about your dog’s unique needs. I currently work from home two days a week, which allows for extra attention, potty breaks, and companionship during the day. On the other three in-office days, I’m available for early morning, evening, and overnight care depending on your needs. I’m also fully available on weekends, making me a great option for weekend getaways, dog walking, or extended care. No matter the schedule, I’ll always keep your pet's routine in mind and provide updates to give you peace of mind. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I take every precaution to ensure they are secure, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I never leave pets unattended in unsecured spaces — whether indoors, in a yard, or during walks. I always use leashes, double-check gates and doors, and follow any safety instructions or routines you provide. I treat every pet like they’re my own and respect the trust you place in me to care for them. You can count on me for reliable, attentive care and regular updates, so you always know your pet is in safe hands.

About: I have never lived WITHOUT an animal in my home. I have raised many dogs and cats, from newborn to full grown. I have also had many other types of animals in my home such as horses, bunnies, reptiles, birds, etc. I promise I will take care of your pet like it is my own :) I am currently working full time in Liberty MO, 6am-2pm. I wake up at 4am to start my day and I take my own dog outside and play with her to get some energy out until I have to leave for work. I live in an apartment, so after work, if the weather isn't too bad, I take my dog to the Stocksdale Dog Park after work.


About: I have many years of experience with house and pet sitting while living in Colorado. Any of my past clients there would tell you they trusted me implicitly with their homes and their pets. I was given total access to their homes on a permanent basis by most to step in when my services were needed. This resulted in months at a time being booked solid for my services. I fall in love with your dogs and cats that I take care of and I treat them with kindness as if they were my own. I have handled numerous pets with special needs and medications,, etc. I live slightly north of Kansas City, but am available for anyone in the metro area and surrounding communities.

About: I have a passion for animals and I would like to work closely with them as much as possible. When your pets are under my supervision, you will never have to worry for their care. I will make sure to take them on at least two walks a day and feed them under any diet regiments that you find necessary. I have cared for animals in my past. I am looking to continue on with this line of work.

About: Grew up with two dogs but had to leave them when I came to college to play football. I miss them a ton and want to find a way to be around dogs again. Basically raised our youngest dog by my self and know how to have fun with dogs all ages!! I am currently in college and also play football in college. I am free most days besides saturdays and early afternoons of everyday because of meetings and practices. But I will find time to take care of your dog!! I can easily crate your dog, but I also know when they need to be let outside or go for a little play date!! I have a huge field next to where I live so playing fetch is an easy option if that’s what your dog needs! I also have lots of natural areas for fun walks with dogs!!

About: Since I was a child I’ve taken care of big dogs! Not afraid of a lil bit of slobber and helping walk strong dogs. Health matters first for me so you’re not alone in wanting the best for your doggo!! I’m more flexible before 10 am and after 2pm Thursday through Sunday. Monday through Wednesday I’m available throughout the day, with occasional meetings on Tuesday Mornings. Please specify your needs and I’ll work to provide. My dog is a black lab/shepherd! I’m the type of dog mom that will plan our vacations to include her if thats saying anything! Dogs have been my best of friends throughout childhood. I may have an easier time talking to your dog than you! JOKING!

About: Going away? Working late? Need a day off? I provide trusted, in-home care for your pup so you can relax knowing they’re happy, safe, and loved. Services Include: ✔️ Walks & playtime ✔️ Feeding & fresh water ✔️ Overnight stays & daycare ✔️ Cuddles and attention ✔️ Updates & photos for peace of mind Whether it’s a work trip, weekend getaway, or just a long day, I make sure your pup is cared for like my own. I’m a stay at home mom and lifelong animal lover. I’d love to welcome your dog into our routine for safe, loving, and dependable care. When a dog stays with me, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I follow their regular feeding schedule and diet exactly as provided. They get daily walks, potty breaks, and plenty of playtime. I keep them supervised and never leave them alone for long periods. I provide a cozy sleeping spot — or their own bed if the owner prefers to bring it. I can send photo/video updates so owners can see their happy pup. If needed, I can administer medications exactly as directed.

“Machelle was very responsive and easy to work with. She went out of her way to help us out when our petsitter was suddenly unavailable. Can't say enough about how appreciative we were of her attentiveness to our fur babies.”


About: I have done house sitting for animals for years. I have experience with all different sizes and breeds of animals. I can assist with any care your senior pet may need.

I have a small fenced in yard at my apartment and take my dog on multiple walks during the day. I can help take care of your pet in whatever needs they may have

About: I have been training and competing in dog agility with dogs of my own and other people’s dogs going on 14 years now. I have been working in vet med since high school. I have experience in animal PT so I can care for “special needs” pets including wheel chairs, diaper changes, and trouble walking. I enjoy giving pet parents peace of mind while they are out of town. I am currently a full-time graduate student. I am available to pet sit during the weekend overnight and week days if my schedule and your pets’ schedule align. Going to your house I will follow all of the instructions you provide for me. I am also able/willing to walk them around the neighborhood or any other activities they enjoy with you while you are out of town.

“Katie was a life saver for me, she was able to come and take care of my animals on very short notice as I was admitted into the hospital unexpectedly. She had great interaction with my dog and provided the service I was looking for. I would definitely use her services again if I needed to.”


About: I have worked with dogs for 4 years now and I have learned a lot about different dogs. I have worked with dogs from puppy to senior and big to small. My favorite trick to teach is to shake. Since I am currently in nursing school, I am available every weekend and most week days when I am not working in the hospital setting. I have a house with a pretty big yard that my dog loves to play in! Since I have 4 years of dog experience, I understand the challenges and hardships and taking care of different types of dogs. I am here to help!

About: I have live and taken care of my own pets since I was 15 years old. I have experience with pitbulls, Shepard's, labs, corgis, and cats. I have three cats of my own right now, but have had dogs in the past Recently I have branched out and started helping my friends take care of their animals while we are one different shifts. I work at NKCH 3 days a week with rotating 12 hour day shifts. One week is Monday through Wednesday and the next week is Wednesday through Friday. I do pick up at Truman Medical Center for 8 hours, but will have those days blocked off. I love playing with animals in their own environment so they are more comfortable with the surrounding environment with different outside factors in a new area. Walks will be in their neighborhood.

About: As an insurance agent I look forward to my afternoon walks. So why not enjoy them a lot more with your furry family member. I have always had a dog and have two now.

I work all over the city and am able to get to all parts of town. When taking care of your pet I will be fully engaged with them. I don't just let them out the door. I play, pet and make sure your dog is happy and having fun.

About: I always had pets growing up. Pets of my own have mainly been cats (3) due to a family members allergy of dogs but I have my own dog who is now 4 years old and they are all very loved and well taken care of. My work schedule allows me to have 3 / 4 days off every other week so I have more free time than I know what to do with. Pet sitting, walking, or drop ins would brighten up my time off. I don’t have availability for pets in my home, but in my clients home they would be cared for and loved all the same as their owners. We would go on walks, get them active with toys as well.

“Kiana was wonderful!! Last minute booking by me and she rose to the occasion. I had a 10 week old puppy that needed to be watched. Bea was very happy and content around Kiana. She was very comfortable and knowledgeable about dogs!!”

I will work around whatever my clients needs are to ensure their pet is cared for to your standard. I love to walk and am willing to take your furry loved one on as long of a walk as you like. I also practice safe feeding environments and am aware if feedings need to be done a certain way. I am also versed in practices of being safe while on the leash and at dog parks. I have a truck that I can use to take your dog to the dog park as well if you’d like.

Megan W.Star Sitter
“Megan is beyond how words, she has such attention to detail and treats your pets like they are truly her own. Her extensive K-9 back ground made the decision to go with her so easy because I knew with any issue she seemed like the girl I would go to for the help anyway so might as well let her watch the dogs from the start. Megan will be my life long sitter until the day she fires me, I won’t be letting her go! I would trust Megan with any of my animals!”
