About: I can administer oral or pill medications if needed. I can provide your pet with stimulating exercise because I’m an athlete myself! I can also provide senior care to your pet. I am in charge of the pets my family has at home which includes feeding, walking, and bathing them. I currently work at a medical office during the week, Monday through Friday. I usually work from 7:30am-4:45pm. I am available anytime I get off of work to do drop-ins or walks. I usually don't take drop-ins for the morning due to the time that I have to be at work. For my own cat, I clean her litter box at least once day and she eats Smalls' pet food twice daily. On days when I am taking care of other's pets, my partner takes care of her in my stead. Charisma enjoys going on walks on the weekends and taking naps in my lap. For others pets, I will do my best to keep them as comfortable as possible and to keep the same schedule that you have set for them. If sleeping with them is allowed, that is also something I will do as long as they are comfortable. I will make sure that any mess your pet makes while you’re away will be cleaned up. I can bathe your pet if you want and can be there to keep them company if you wish. Keeping your pet comfortable is my priority!
About: In addition to caring for my own dogs, I've fostered over 40 dogs including puppies, senior dogs, dogs recovering from surgery, and dogs requiring special behavioral and/or medical assistance. I've recently been approved as a puppy raiser for Canine Companions. I am retired and available during the work day. I know what it's like to worry about your dog getting the exercise and attention they need, my flexibility can work for you. I will have your dog on-leash for any walks or outside time at my home. As the pawrent, I want to follow any directions or suggestions that you have for making your dog comfortable and happy.
About: I’ve raised dogs of all sizes throughout. I have 4 grand dogs that I help take care of from time to time. I’m experienced and dogs/cats are typically at ease around me. Can’t wait to meet your pet! I am newly retired and have a lot of Flex Time at the moment. I enjoy working with animals and have reliable transportation. Thank you! I will work with you to determine what is best suited for your pet. My practices typically including, feeding, cleaning kitty litter, medicine giving, letting out in yard or on leash to potty, etc. Also available for walking.
“Taylor has been very helpful. She has come and walked our very energetic dog on a weekly basis and I have had 0 difficulties getting ahold of her or getting feedback about how everything went. She is very sweet and a great choice for your pet!”

About: I have been watching since I was 20 years old. I watched friends dogs, siblings dogs and I used to have a Jack Russell beagle mix. His name was Milo. I work Monday through Friday, but I drove a truck. I’m on the road all day so I have the ability to come home. Check on the animals play with them. Feed them walk them throughout the day. I usually get off at 4 PM. No matter if I’m in some ways home or the animals are at my house I love to go out for walks with dogs and play with pets in general pet them. Let them sit on my life and just spend time with them so they never feel lonely.
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I’ve had Oliver (frenchie) since he was a puppy, so I’m used to everything from training to daily routines. He requires allergy medication, which means I’m comfortable giving meds and paying close attention to a dog’s needs. I also frequently care for my family’s three dogs (two Frenchies and an English bulldog), so I’m great at handling multiple pups and making sure each one gets the attention they deserve. I’m currently working 3rd shift, so if you’re needing someone in the morning to let out your furry pet I can! Or if you want someone home all day with your pet, that works perfect for me as well! I can do walks during the days (after a little nap). I would say I’m pretty flexible if told ahead of time! I live in an apartment and do have a dog named Oliver. Oliver pretty much gets along with other dogs! If you’d rather your dog not be around another, I’d be more than willing to stay with your pets! My cousin would love watching my dog. I love meeting new fur babies and would love to help whenever I can with whatever you need!

About: I helped out a rescue in Springfield with taking in pregnant cats and caring for the mom and the babies until the babies were able to go to a forever home I am available for pet sitting anytime. I am available to walk Tuesday through Saturday after 2:00 and anytime on Sunday and Monday. I would love to care for your babies I am very trustworthy and clean. I love animals and will treat your animals as my own. I have a good job and a law-enforcement background
About: I have taken care of my own 3 dogs since I was young and have dog sat for neighbors and friends multiple times over the last few years! I have cared for dogs of any breed and any age, as well as dogs with health concerns! I currently work Tuesday-Thursday 9am-11:30am and am open for just about the rest of the day! It is possible that I will have 2-3 hours of work at night but depends on co-workers schedules! I am very willing to walk and play with them or lay down and watch a movie on a tired day! I have cared for my own dogs and others, all with different personalities and energy, so I can make sure your dog is taken care of to the best of my abilities!

About: Hi! My name is Joey, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently work as a veterinary assistant and am studying animal science in college, so caring for pets is more than just a job it’s something I’m passionate about. Through my work in veterinary medicine, I’ve had the opportunity to care for pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’ve seen everything from energetic puppies to senior pets that need extra patience, comfort, and medication support. The practice I work at is a fear free vet clinic that has helped me build skills to do this. At home, I have a French Bulldog and a senior Pit Bull who have taught me firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I understand that every animal is different, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, medication, feeding, or simply some extra attention, I will care for them as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands! Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I currently work as a veterinary assistant and attend college, but I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, playtime, medication administration, and check-ins for both dogs and cats. At this time, I am focusing on services that allow me to care for pets in their own homes through visits and walks rather than overnight house sitting. This allows me to provide dependable care while ensuring I can give each pet the attention they deserve. I always do my best to accommodate scheduling requests and keep pet owners updated with photos and messages during every visit. Your pet’s safety and well being are always my top priorities. As a veterinary assistan, I understand the importance of monitoring pets closely and recognizing signs that something may be wrong. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have so they can feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I believe communication is key, so I provide regular updates, photos, and messages during visits. Whether your pet needs medication, extra patience, or just plenty of playtime and attention, I will treat them with the same care and respect I give my own pets. My goal is to provide a safe, stress free experience for both you and your pet.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for family friends and colleagues since high school. I love to go on long walks, runs and play around in parks or backyards. I’m currently work in before and after school care so I am free 9:30am-3 pm on weekdays but I am happy to do check up’s early in the morning and late in the evenings. On Saturday’s I’m free all day except for 8-2 and Sundays I am free all day. In clients homes I will care for your pets in anyway they need whether that is cuddling inside all day or playing in the backyard. On walks I will ensure the safety of your pet by double checking the leash/harness and catering the walk to their liking.
About: I work at The Wag Dog Bar in Grandview! If your pups like other ones, let’s talk about the possibility of me bringing them for a few hours! If that makes you uncomfortable, no worries! I will still enjoy doing all other services to provide for your pup :) This position put me through a lot of training about dog behavior! I recently rescued my very own bully mix from the shelter. I am very comfortable with any and all pups! I am currently working two part time jobs so my schedules often changes! If you want to ask, please reach out and I will provide you my schedule for the whole week! My pup is like my child. I treat her with gentleness, just like I would your pup. I always have treats on hand (please let me know if your pup has any allergies!) I always go by the policy that the pup’s comfort and experience comes first!!
About: I’ve dog-sat (and house-sat) for friends for a while, and nothing brings me more joy than seeing happy dogs! I love taking them for long walks or runs, spending the day playing with them, and of course giving them plenty of hugs and pets! ❤️🐶 I’m currently working full-time, so during the week I’m available to go on short walks during lunch and make sure your dog is fed and can use the bathroom. I can spend time with them in the evenings as well, and I’m also available for house sitting to keep them company while you’re away! I don’t have any pets of my own at home, but I’ve had plenty of experience caring for pets of friends and family members. I like taking them for walks through neighborhoods or parks where they can meet other dogs or people and see new places!
About: I have always taken care of my own pets and have pet-sat for years, for both dogs and cats. I enjoy walking dogs and caring for them. I am looking for a part-time flexible job that will fit into my current schedule. I am available with notice and can be available early or late. I will only take care of pets in your home. I currently have a dog and 5 cats and could not upset their balance. I enjoy walking with the dogs and playing fetch. I also enjoy down time just talking with them and petting them.
“Sophia did a great job walking my dog and giving her lots of love! She was very responsive and always gave us updates. I would 100% recommend her and would definitely book her services again in the future.”

About: Being around dogs is something that comes naturally, and making them feel comfortable is always the priority. Time is taken to understand each dog’s personality, whether that means helping a puppy learn or giving a senior dog a slower relaxed walk. Every walk is filled with patience, attention, and a little extra love (and probably a few happy tail wags along the way). The goal is always a safe, fun, and stress free experience for every pup 🐾 I’m in my second year of college and working part time job on weekends, so afternoons on weekdays are when I’m most free. Every pet is cared for based on what they’re used to and what makes them feel most comfortable. In a client’s home, routines are followed closely to keep things familiar like feeding times, walks, or play. At home, pets are in a safe calm environment with lots of attention and care. Whether they’re energetic or more relaxed, they’re always treated with patience and love.
About: I love dogs! I’ve always loved them. When i got my first dog at 8 I was terrified. I would scream and jump on the toilet. She wasn’t even the size of my backpack lol. As the years went on I grew not only a pet but a sister! She was there for me even when i didn’t think i needed her. I want to give your pet the same love I gave to her! Right now i have a mini golden doodle. She is a very special dog lol. She gets on my nerves but i wouldn’t trade her for anything. She’s always doing different things to keep me on my toes. I would make sure that your dog is properly cared for. Whether that is playing fetch with them or taking them for a walk. I live in an apartment that has a huge field. They will get the proper exercise for sure. I love to run with them.
