Dog Sitting Grandview

“Katie did a fantastic job taking care of our perfect handsome Walter. We asked him how it went and he said I like Katie a lot mom. She was very nice to me and she took great care of me. You would approve mom!!”

About: I’ve been taking on pet sitting gigs for over 6 years! I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs big and small, and cats of all ages! I grew up with a very high-energy Labrador and feisty barn-cat-turned-house-cat. I now just live with a Snowshoe kitty named Pepper. I will care for your pets with utmost respect and tailor to their needs. And yes, I will take LOTS of pictures of your pets, and maybe even a full photoshoot😉 I am 23 years old, a recent Mizzou graduate, and a full-time remote worker. I currently work full-time remotely, so I have flexibility to see your pet throughout the day and much room in the evening after 5pm. While I work, I can often stay with the pet(s) during the day to take them out, keep them company, and tailor to their specific needs. I also strive to make the house look just like it had before the family left.

About: I grew up on a working farm with working dogs and have had dogs my entire life. I currently love and manage a pack of 4 dogs in my home. 1 Great Pyrenees, 1 Pyrador, and 2 Komonees pups. They are my world! These are BIG girls. 60-90 pounds. They’re surprisingly agile so small dogs are ok! 100+ pound dogs are welcome. And every dog in between! We love dogs of all shapes and sizes and have hosted pups from 12-130 pounds. I’m experienced triaging in an emergency vet clinic, and can perform basic first aid, medication administration, post-op care, and more! In the past, I co-owned my own reptile and exotic LLC for 5 years, KC Cresties (dissolved due to divorce). So I’m comfortable and experienced caring for your scaly friends, sugar gliders, chinchillas, ferrets, prairie dogs, opossums, or whatever other cool friend(s) you have. Large snakes, monitors, and Iguanas are ok! My family successfully rehabbed 2 baby raccoons that lost their mom and returned them to the wild when it was time. The day they left and never came home was filled with joy and sadness that we were very fortunate to be a part of. We have 2 cats in the house who are friendly with both other cats and dogs. I keep a sturdy metal baby gate up for their space away from the dogs so they have a sanctuary. There’s very few animals I don’t have experience with, and I love them all. Big dogs and working dogs are no problem. Trouble with leash pulling? No problem. Got a hyper jumper? It’s ok, I’ve got a solid foundation. Puppies? No sweat, I have old laminate flooring and we walk every 2-3 hours. Lastly, you can count me as a former HR professional surrounding school aged children based organizations. I left HR to pursue a career with animals and am currently going doing online classes to earn my vet tech degree. Animals have always been my passion. All my current classes are online so I’m able to accommodate most schedules for pick up and drop off. I have kids and a husband that help me out if I need to leave the house. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and respect I treat my own. Pets are a big part of our lives and they are our family. Feeding time is approximately 8am and 6pm (unless otherwise requested). We add scrambled eggs to our morning feeding and homemade dog food to our dinner. Homemade food is AAFCO approved recipes. Every dog has their own food dish and 3 giant water bowls are available from 6am to 8pm. Water is picked up overnight for housebreaking purposes. Treat circles are 2-3 times per day. We work on basics. Sit, lay, paw, etc. Level 2 commands are practiced once per day for those who have mastered level 1. I love a good game of catch the treat! After commands, I always toss a few rounds of treats. I have a well stocked variety of treats, so your pups dietary preferences can be honored. Each dog is walked separately. Belle alerts us when it’s walk time. Every 2-3 hours. Weather permitting, our dogs like to sit and wait on the porch for their turn to walk. It’s a gated 10x20. Please let me know if your dog is an escape artist or a jumper so that I can take proper safety precautions. If your pup does decides they need an additional potty break, that’s no problem either. Our dogs are all current on vaccinations and take heart-worm and flea preventive through our vet’s office. Records can be provided upon request. Cat sitting can be provided on the other half of the house divided by a sturdy metal baby gate. Cats will be provided with toys and separate meal dishes according to your feeding instructions. Litter will be changed daily. Small animals and Exotic care: for most exotics leaving the home is very stressful and recommended care is in your home. However there are exceptions to this rule. We can discuss your unique needs and what is most appropriate for your pets health and well being. Some animals in small habitats don’t mind staying somewhere new as long as they’re safe in their world. Transportable habitats are welcome.

About: I have always loved animals and love to meet everyone’s fur babies! I have two dogs who have anxiety. One who is reactive so I’m familiar with fur babies who may be nervous around new people. I can be patient and calm to help your baby feel more safe. I also have a cat name Georgie. I have experience with reptiles if you need any help with those. I work remotely so have more flexibility for drop ins and walking. I can also do overnight stays if required. I would love to be able to spend time with your fur babies I am willing to go to your home so your dog feels safe in their environment and able to do walks in parks or around your neighborhood.

About: I currently work in a doggy daycare, so pretty much my whole day is spent feeding dogs, administering medications, walking, and monitoring/redirecting interactions! In short, I spend a lot of time with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and care requirements! I have my own kitties and have a ton of experience from caring for them & for different members of my family! I work from 6:30 to 2:30 Tuesday through Friday. I would be able to do morning feeding and walks before work on those days, then additional feedings or walks after. On Saturday, I work 6:30 to 4:00, then I’m back from 7:30 to around 8:00. I could do drop-ins in between those times! Sunday and Monday I am free all day! My current job requires a lot of responsibility since we are walking dogs next to two busy streets, sometimes boarding reactive dogs that require specific walking protocols, feeding dogs with allergies, and administering all sorts of medications to dogs. I know how to pay attention and keep a dog safe, lock up when I’m done, and overall just do my best to maintain the trust between our pet parents! I know what a big deal it is to be trusted with somebody’s pet and I take safety really seriously.

About: With a deep love for animals, I provide compassionate and reliable pet care. Experienced in handling various breeds, I offer personalized attention, ensuring the well-being and happiness of your furry companions. Trust me to deliver exceptional care for your beloved pets. Working with your pets fits perfectly into my daily routine ! Never a dull moment . Lots of laughter , joy , head scratches and cuddles ! I have a huge yard and in walking distance to local dog park . Very walkable neighborhood on a cul de sac. Having only a cat in my house, there is plenty of space for your animal to be happy and content all day.

About: I have had many years of experience caring for my own pets, including feeding, walking, basic care, and putting them in a safe and loving space when I am with them. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets since I was little and I have no doubt that I can provide pets with what they need. I currently don't work, but if I do eventually, it would be part-time so I will have a ton of time to watch your pets! I will treat your home and pets with respect while carefully following instructions in detail. I will communicate regularly with you with updates and photos about how your pets are doing! I will do all of this while keeping your space clean, calm, and consistent with your pet's routine.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I've cared for my family dog since we got her as a puppy, helping with her training and taking full responsibility for her care whenever my parents are away. Growing up around animals has given me a natural connection with them and an understanding of the patience, consistency, and attention they need. In addition to my experience with pets, I have over 1,000 hours of patient care experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant and will be starting nursing school this fall. My healthcare background has strengthened my compassion, attentiveness, and ability to provide dependable care. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I will care for yours with the same empathy, responsibility, and dedication that I bring to caring for my patients. I recently graduated from the University of Arkansas with a degree in Public Health and am spending the summer in Kansas City before starting nursing school in August. My schedule is very flexible, with only a few appointments throughout the week, which allows me to be highly available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and other pet care needs. I would love to help care for your pets whenever you need an extra hand. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine and provide them with a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I am reliable and able to travel to your home to provide the care your pet needs, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration, or companionship. I have strong communication skills and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident while you're away. I am highly detail-oriented, follow instructions carefully, and understand that every pet has unique needs. My goal is to care for your beloved pet as if they were a member of my own family.

About: I own 4 dogs, 2 different breed types. I also own hedgehogs and Guinea Pigs. I take good care of my animals and give them lots of love and attention. Have trained several puppies including obedience training and potty training. I am a teacher with my entire summer off, so I have time to spare and the space to accommodate other pets to care for. I have a fenced yard. We have 3 dogs we crate at night that have been potty trained and 1 that sleeps in our dining room at night which is gated off from the rest of the house in case they have potty accidents. We get up several times a night to take our dogs out to potty.

About: I take my Mini Bernadoodle on 5 mile walks every other day on our local trail! Your dog would get to join me and Remi on our walks by the lake! I love being outside when I do my computer work or to read, so your dog would not be cooped up inside for long periods of time. I run quick errands every day and am out of the house for 45 minutes to an hour. I have long dog-sat many of my parents' friends' dogs for multiple days. I am very observant and responsible, and I will ensure your pup is safe at all times. I am currently working hybrid; I am home all day on Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat. I am available for boarding starting Thursdays after 3:45 PM. I become unavailable on Monday nights, around 10 PM. I work from my computer outside most of the time, and I already go on 2+ mile walks every day, so your pup would fit perfectly in my schedule. I have a Mini Bernedoodle named Remi who has never bitten anyone in her 5 years of life. She's a sweetie. I'd care for your dog in the same way I care for Remi: She is fed breakfast at 7 AM, occasional treats throughout the day, and dinner at 6:30 PM. I take her on 1-2 long walks/day and let her out in the backyard every 1-2 hours to do her business. My backyard is quite big, but unfenced. With Remi, we have an electric fence to keep her safe. I am happy to keep your dog on the long leash when in the backyard. We're always with Remi, cuddling, chilling on the couch, etc. She sleeps in my bed only after she's had a bath. Otherwise, she'll be left to wind down wherever else she pleases.

“Christina was amazing! She truly went above and beyond for our fur babies and communication was wonderful. We will absolutely be booking again!”

About: Been taking care of a doggo since I was six... From bathing them after a nice roll in some poop to giving them all the snuggles in the world, I have done it all. I know the true responsibility of owning and caring for a dog, as I would tend to all the needs of my lovely golden retriever. They are pure joy & love, and I know they mean the world to us owners, but they also require lots of work! So I'm here to help. With a flexible schedule and a passion for pups, let me be the one to make sure your special k9 is living their best life. Whether it's a brisk walk or a weekend of fetch, it's a happy doggy. I am working from home with a flexible schedule! Eager for a morning and evening walks and afternoon strolls around the block! Always room for pets during the day. No dogs or kids in this apartment. Safe environment for dogs with parks locally to run around or lakes to walk to. Home does have stairs.

About: I’ve grown up in a home with three dogs, so caring for pets has always been part of my daily life. I have experience dog sitting overnight as well as stopping by for walks, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I’m very dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets like my own while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for walks, feedings, check-ins, and overnight stays. I’m very reliable and can adjust my availability to meet each pet owner’s needs. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for in both my home and my client’s home. I follow all instructions closely, keep a clean and secure environment, and give pets lots of attention, love, and supervision to make them feel at ease.

About: Between caring for my own dogs- large, small, young, old, being a dog grooming apprentice, and boarding pups in my own home, I've had all sort of experience with pups- cats too, as well as a few other strange fur kids such as goats and chickens! Animals just make more sense to me! I work a part time 10-2 generally at the book store, but outside of that, I love to fit in a walk or two after work or many on the weekends. I prefer to walk during the daytime or at the latest dusk, but don't go out at night time unfortunately. That's time spent at home! Getting down on a knee for first meet and letting the pup come to me is the first step to establishing trust. Type of care depends on the service, but for a general drop in, it's always good to make sure they feel comfortable with me in their space before I begin moving around it. Getting them their food, making sure their water is clean and fresh, and then making sure they pee + poop and get out their zoomies so they feel refreshed is the only way I wanna leave em! Don't want to end a visit with a pup who still has pent up energy.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and truly enjoy caring for them. While I don’t currently have pets of our own, I would love to be part-time pet parents and provide a safe, loving environment while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal with genuine care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I work regular weekday business hours, but I am still available for pet care services before and after work, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care and will always communicate my schedule clearly. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible. I’m attentive to each animal’s individual needs to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

“Raegan has been very easy to work with and prompt with her responses! She has been accommodating to our requests with our pets’ care and I know they are well taken care of while we are gone. It certainly eases my anxiety knowing she’s going to be checking in on our animals!!”

“We’ve used Rachel multiple times now and she’s been absolutely wonderful every time! Bear and Bo love it when she comes over and watches them! Thanks Rachel!”

“Jules was great! She communicated well with us and sent lots of pictures and updates while we were away. It was such a relief to know our boys were well looked after.”

About: I have been pet sitting and house sitting since I was old enough to be left alone. I grew up walking neighbors dogs when they left town and continue to watch family and friends pets when they need it! I tend to bond with animals quickly and have the free time so I would like to start pet sitting more; I have experience with puppies as well as elderly and sick dogs. I took care of my own 16 year old pup for the last 6 months so I am familiar with medication giving, comfort care, and temperament that can come with elderly or sick dogs. I have 2 large dogs of my own so I am open to any breed including large hyper breeds. I’m ready to run your pet til they are tired or hangout with them on the couch, whatever they like! I typically only work 3 nights a week as a bartender so I am available almost all hours of the day and I am open to dog walking before and after shifts as well! I personally have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs of my own that are friendly but would prefer pet sitting and dog walking near the pets own home for their own comfortability. I like to sit and relax with the dog til they are comfortable with me and then start to ease into playing with them, I am down to walk your dog or play with them in your yard if that’s what you prefer!

“Megan was wonderful with my 3 cats while we were out of town. I was worried the cats wouldn't warm up having a stranger show up to feed them, but Megan was patient and won them over. As a Rover sitter myself I appreciate the effort it takes to make that happen. I will be recommending Megan to anyone that contacts me to sit that I'm not able to do myself!”
