“Kailey took amazing care of my dog, cat, and home while I was away on vacation. She sent daily updates and photos that let me know everything was going well during her week long stay. I highly recommend her.”


“Isabel was great! She stayed overnight with our two pups. Sent pictures and updates and the home (and bed) were left just as we left it. Would love to have her back again any time. Thank you!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every age size and breed since I was 20. I grew up around dogs and throughly enjoy and care for each and everyone of them like they are my own family! As they are yours and deserve to be treated with as much respect and care when you’re outside the home! I do have my own pup who is very friendly and loves to play we come as a pair who will love to play with your animals! I work full time and do pet sitting/ walking part time! I’m willing to do drop in visits or staying in home to help the dog/cat acclimate to you being gone! Staying in home I will play with the animal dog or cat and take them outside for potty breaks (dog) sand will clean the litter box daily (cat). I understand each animal has their on personality so I would prefer to meet the animal prior to sitting so that we may get used to each other! I’ve watched and cared for many pets in the manhattan junction city area for years and would love to give your pet the love and care needed when you’re away!

“Bri was amazing!!!! First off she was accommodating and flexible for a meet and greet ahead of time. Second she sent tons of photos every morning and every evening. She spent so much time playing with our labs which is very important to us and for them. Lastly my house was exactly how I left it which hasn't always happened with other sitters. We will for sure use her again and recommend her to friends!”


“Preston was great with Tucker! Was very accommodating to a last minute request. Definitely recommend for others and would book again in the future!”


“Heather took such great care of our anxious Otis ! This was his first time without any family but the pictures and videos she sent put us at ease . He had a great time with her. We will most certainly book her again.”


“Emma does a great job with my boy and my home! She has stayed at my place twice and she takes extra care before I get home and has excellent communication!”


About: I have always had some type of pet ever since I was little, whether that be dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, sheep, goats, you name it! I love animals and have always been entrusted to be the main caretaker of all my family pets and have learned all different tips and tricks to make sure every animal is loved and cared for while their fur parents are away. I worked in the UC Davis Animal Science Department as a student resident, which meant I lived in a barn with animals 24/7! I have been taught by UC Davis veterinarians how to administer treatments and medicines, and have always been the first to call from my friends who need someone to take care of their pets while they are away. I am comfortable with active dogs, puppies, couch potatoes, or anything that just needs a cuddle every now and then. I have a lot of experience with bully breeds and high-maintenance coats, especially bulldogs, I've had 3 as family dogs! I just love dogs and cats and can assure you that I will make sure your loved one gets the care, attention, and love they deserve. I work with livestock animals and have raised sheep, goats, and cattle for about 7 years now. I am comfortable with horses and any other large animals you may have. I can also provide a helping hand around a ranch or farm if needed and trained to work in all different conditions. If you have a flock of chickens that need to get fed, pens to be mucked while you are away, or any small chores I would love to discuss different rates to ensure that all your animals are cared for! I am a current Masters student at KSU and new to Manhattan, however I am a massive animal lover and have a relatively flexible schedule to fit your needs. I am available most mornings and all evenings, and since I am from California, I usually stay around Manhattan for most major holidays. I unfortunately cannot bring pets into my home, but I am willing to provide transportation to dog parks if needed. While I am at your home, however, I ask that I have access to internet access for overnight stays. Other than that, I am very flexible in terms of living arrangements, I have experience with crate training if that is what your family practices. I am a vigilant, responsible individual who will provide the best of care for your family.

About: I have increased my prices slightly. Pet care should be affordable. No one wants to leave their pet behind and I understand that. While I was in the military I had to leave my dog monthly. The prices were eating me up. I'm here to offer a fair, cheap, short term solution. I ideally work for 5 or less days! M-TH Home 24 hours F-SU Work 14 hour shifts. I try to avoid weekends but I can still host if you're okay with my work schedule. My dog will be kenneled for the first few interactions, your dog will free roam the living room.if the dogs get along they will be supervised in the living room together. If the dogs do not get along in an unsafe manner, I will work with the owner to develop a new plan.

About: I truly love animals and pets and would own every cat I’ve ever seen if I could. I volunteer for Purple Paws and have two cats and one gecko of my own. Over my adult life, I’ve had lots of experience pet sitting for my friends and family. This has included taking care of newborn puppies, letting dogs out, taking dogs for walks, and checking in on cats. I will make sure to give your animals all the love and attention they truly deserve. I currently work full-time from home. I get an hour lunch break everyday and typically wrap my workday around 4:00pm. This leaves me plenty of time to help out during my lunch break, after work, and I could even pop by sometime during my work hours if I don’t have a meeting. My cats at home get treated like royalty. We feed them twice a day and make sure they have plenty of water. We often offer treats to reward good behavior. Our cats get played with and they get to come out on the balcony with us. They are allowed on all furniture, except for the tables and kitchen counter. When I watch other people’s animals, I make sure the animals get their basic needs and more! I love getting to spend some time providing their animals with love and getting to play.

“Courteney loves animals and it shows! She took care of our furbabies several nights while we were out of town. We came home to relaxed and calm animals...always a good sign! Thank you, Courteney!”

“A great sitter, couldn’t have asked for a better one. She has very great communication, easy to reach, always keeps you updated and even send you the best /cutest photos of your animals. If she takes care of your animals they’ll be great hands! I 1000% recommend her to others if you’re looking for a pet sitter.”


About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since we welcomed my 16 year old family do Diamond in the family. Ever since then I have sitted for dogs through the past. I am currently taking classes pursuing a masters and rover being flexible is beneficial to my schedule. This will give me time to study and also give the time care and need for any animal I have a enclosed fence in the backyard w plenty of space for running room for any fur baby to release all their energy. My neighborhood has a trail and a park in order to provide walks as well.

“I truly can’t express enough how amazing Kaylyn was while watching our pup, Morty. After losing his brother suddenly last month, I was incredibly anxious about leaving Morty alone for the first time in years. Kaylyn went above and beyond with taking care of Morty. She was amazing with keeping me in the loop on his nervous tummy, being with him for as long as he needed, and constantly giving us the peace of mind that he was in the best capable hands possible. She’s our personal hero right now and we can’t wait to have her watch Morty again.”

About: Hi there! I currently reside with my husband and a heeler/lab mix named Sandy, and we live in a house built in the fifties. Sandy is a mama’s girl, there’s no question about it, but she gets lonely being an only child. While your pet is with me he or she gets two fun girls to play with, a park to run and play in and plenty of belly rubs and ear scratches. I love animals and cannot wait to welcome your precious one as a friend to myself and my girl. When I’m not busy with life, I love reading books, going for walks and cranking up my music for impromptu dance parties that no one sees but me. Thanks for reading about us. Talk soon! I’m in college and my classes are spread out, so I have time to do one or two drop ins between classes, and then of course after class as well. Weekend availability can be discussed. We have a large kennel for our dog, as well as a bed for her to sleep in if she decides not to kennel sleep.
