Dog Walkers in Grays Park, KS

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, but what really sets me apart is hands-on experience actually raising and training one myself. I grew up training my German Shepherd from a young age, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to understand dog behavior, not just watch them. As a student athlete, I’m very active, so I naturally bring a lot of energy to walks, playtime, and keeping dogs engaged. At the same time, I understand that every dog is different, some need structure and training, while others need calm, gentle care, especially seniors. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training, handling larger or high-energy breeds, and making sure pets feel safe and understood while their owners are away. I don’t just “watch” dogs, I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and building trust. As a college student athlete, I keep a very structured schedule, which actually makes me reliable and consistent when it comes to pet care. I plan my days around responsibilities, so I make sure pets are fed, walked, and given attention on time. I also work part-time at a golf course, but I’m looking to spend more of my free time doing something I enjoy, being around dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it gives me a break from school and sports while still staying active. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or evening care, I’m used to balancing multiple commitments and staying dependable. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine, feeding times, walks, play, and any training habits they’re used to. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s environment, making sure everything stays clean, safe, and stress-free. I give dogs plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision, and I always keep owners updated so they feel confident their pet is in good hands. I’m especially attentive to energy levels and behavior, whether that means getting a high-energy dog out for a long walk or just spending calm time with a more relaxed or older dog.

“Amazing! Booked today because my dog is going stir crazy after my surgery. She walked same day as booking and was such a great help! Will definitely use again!”

“Ron has walked our dog several times during the day. We appreciate his punctuality and ability to help on short notice. He came to meet our dog before the scheduled walk and we really appreciated it. Good communication as well.”

About: I have cared for my friend’s dogs while they are away many times. I enjoy providing animals with enrichment and making sure they get ample exercise. I am careful around new dogs to let them show me what kind of care they prefer, and strive to make my time with them as enjoyable as possible for both of us. I have full time evening employment. I am available to care for pets Sunday-Thursday 9am to 2pm (meaning my latest available visit would start at 1:30pm for an 30 min visit), and All day Fridays and Saturdays! I have lots of experience with sneaky animals who love eating things they are not supposed to eat or hiding in places they should not be. I am diligent with putting away foodstuffs and making sure doors/ screens are shut. Please let me know if your pet has these behaviors so I can be prepared before the visit.

About: I take my dog (Louie) on walks daily, so I would love to add your dog to our routine! I’ve been dog sitting for 20+ years, in addition to my family always having at least one dog. I personally love smaller dogs. I have experience with rat terriers, cavapoo, yorkies and cavalier king charles breeds. I love pets and think they’re so important to a family! Let me help you keep your pet happy and healthy 😁 I live on the Plaza so I’m in a very walkable part of town, near many parks. I walk my dog in the evenings after work - a quick workout for both of us. We love to walk around Kansas City together! When I’m home, Louie is always right by my side - on the couch, in bed or even while I’m cooking. I crate him most nights and while I’m at work. I live in an apartment so walks are very necessary - we go on at least one a day or we run in my apartment’s dog park. Would love to add your dog to the mix!

“Amber has been absolutely wonderful with my dog! She is communicative, shows good judgment and is excellent to work with. We are very thankful for her walks and attentiveness.”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have experience with dogs and cats of different ages and personalities, including senior pets. I’m patient, dependable, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, so it fits very naturally into my everyday life. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I have a flexible routine, which allows me to give pets the attention and care they deserve throughout the day, including weekends when needed. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always care for them with patience, love, and attention. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I try to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I pay attention to their behavior, make sure they feel safe, and give them lots of affection so they feel relaxed and cared for while their family is away.

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. My husband and I currently have 3 cats and 2 dogs of our own - all rescues! We tend to gravitate towards the more challenging types, (older, behaviorally "challenged", or generally the "once you get to know them, they're really sweet" type). I've managed two different Doggy Day Care facilities: one here in KC, and another in White Plains, NY. I've also got years of experience working with dog rescue groups here in KC. Because of all this experience, there's no pet I can't handle. I'm comfortable with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes and attitudes! My current full time job is 100% remote, so I'm very flexible when it comes to your pet care needs, (pop-ins or longer stays. As long as you have wifi, I'm good). From my time working in professional pet care, I'm very used to all types of situations. I free-feed my own pets, but I have no problem following your feeding/care schedules, or maintaining a medication regimen.

“Grace is so nice and my dog absolutely loved her!!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from playful puppies and kittens to senior cats and dogs who need extra TLC. I’ve walked and watched pets for friends and family for years, and I’ll treat your fur baby like one of my own. As a professional hairstylist, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to check in throughout the day between appointments. Whether it’s playtime, a walk, or just some comforting company, I’m happy to help give your pet the love and care they deserve. I’m currently working part-time and have a fair amount of flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to give your pet the attention and care it needs throughout the day I offer walks, check ins and boarding. A walk would include 20-30 mins around the neighborhood, and to make sure they have water and a treat when we return. I have often looked after friends cats too, which would include play time, cuddles, and scooping their box and making sure their food and water is full.

“My dog loves going on walks with Danielle! She also did a great job watching her back in February, highly recommended”
