About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and animals hold a special place in my heart . I’m currently a Pre-Veterinary student at the University of Central Missouri, and for the past five years, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant at Pleasant Hill Animal Clinic, where my dad is a veterinarian. I’ve also been pet sitting for the past two years, caring for pets of all ages—from playful 10-month-old to sweet 12-year-old seniors. I have experience administering medications, including insulin injections for diabetic dogs, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I truly consider the dogs I care for as part of my extended family, and I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend and give them the same love and attention I’d give my own. I currently work part-time as a veterinary assistant, and I’m typically available every day except Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. On those days, I occasionally have morning or afternoon availability, and I’m always available after 6 PM. I offer in-home care, boarding, and drop-in visits. Even on my busiest days, I always have a lunch break, so I’m never away from pets in my care for more than six hours at a time. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priority, and I strive to provide dependable, loving care at all times. I have a fully fenced yard and one friendly Great Dane who can be easily kenneled or separated as needed. My home also features a dedicated, dog-proofed room that’s perfect for free roaming and playtime. Whether your pup prefers quiet relaxation or active engagement, I’m able to provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment tailored to their needs.

“Ronnie was great! Checked in frequently with pictures and was there at the times we asked for. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi there! I’m Citara – a single mom with a big heart for animals! I know how important it is to have someone you trust with your furry family members. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or cozy visits with your cat, I treat every pet like my own. Reliable, caring, and flexible – I’m here when you need me. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have flexible availability, especially during evenings and weekends. I currently work during the day part of the week, but I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends for pet sitting or walking. I love being around animals, so spending time caring for pets is something I truly enjoy and make time for. It’s not just a side job—it’s something that brings me peace and purpose. I provide pet care in the comfort of the client’s home because I believe pets feel most safe and relaxed in their own environment. I follow all routines and instructions carefully—from feeding and walks to playtime and medications—so your pet’s day stays as normal as possible. I treat every home with respect and every pet with patience, love, and attention. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I always make sure your pet is secure, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I’m just an army soldier very passionate about animals and taking care of them. I have taken animal health science classes and volunteered at Wayside Waifs a no kill animal shelter. I’m going to college to become an small animal veterinarian. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I have taken animal behavior classes and have worked with dogs that are more difficult, but we’re just misunderstood. They just needed that extra love and attention. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

About: I have had two dogs my whole life and love animals. I’ve always watched over my friends and family’s loved pets for them, while they were away. They have always loved my services. I take feedback (good and bad) as well so if there is something you want exactly your way, I will try my best to accommodate it! I have a very flexible schedule and would love to meet your pets! I have references, and ratings to go with, as well! I take last minute bookings and if you prefer your animal stay at your house, I do make common visits when you prefer. I take lots of pictures to keep you updated and I’m very communicative. Your loved one is my loved one, and will be treated as if it were my own. I have a completely free schedule. I am home all day and have 100% attention to your loved one. I am consistent with any schedule you already have just let me know! I have a 10 acre yard so they will have lots of room to play and have the most fun they ever could! I’ll be your best pet sitter.

“Holly was fabulous! She took such good care of our Jax and Bailey while we were on vacation in Mexico! They both loved her, as was evident from the photos she sent regularly. She gave them lots of love and attention and went out of her way with some extras as well! Great communication and very respectful of our home while visiting. We were able to thoroughly enjoy our vacation knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend and I hope she will consider sitting again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8. I’ve watched numerous friends and family’s pets but recently found out I have an allergy to cats. I have house sit and dog sit for about 5 years when I first turned 13. I currently work part time for a school and will be moving 2 hours away from home in August. I’m more available in the mornings and evening times but can stay over night and do afternoons if needed. I care for pets by feeding and watering them, giving them attention and if they are put on a certain schedule I will be sure to follow it. I had to watch a dog who was diabetic and had to give it medicine in the morning and evening time.

About: I have been around pets my whole life and I have been trusted by many to take care of their pets. I have a flexible schedule, young and agile for energetic pets. I’m currently working part time at one job! So I have plenty of my free time to fill with taking care of your lovely pets! I am available to care and nurture for your pets in their home. I will help with feeding, taking outside and taking on walks when needed and also crating the dogs if preferred.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs both big and small. I have watched animals that pull on walks, need medicine, or any other special treatment. I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 14 and absolutely love animals of all kind. I am 16 years old and am an incoming Junior at Blue Valley High School. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I myself have three animals. Two cats, and a dog. Bean (siamese tabby mix) is my cat and Blu (norwegian forest cat mix) is my partners cat. Mae (german shepherd) is my parents dog! I have worked at two veterinary jobs and at one animal boarding place! Animal care has always been a part of my life and it will forever be a huge part of me. I am about to start a job working at chipotle part time, starting at a horse stable part time, and animal sitting on the side and am doing animal sitting on the side! Unfortunately, at the current moment I am only accepting clients in the Lee’s Summit area. Please reach out if you’re in any need of animal sitting:) I have a german shepherd who isn’t very social, so we don’t have dogs over at my house. When I watch clients animals, I make sure the animals get a lot of play time including a walk if client is comfortable with it. I will do anything the client wants and is comfortable with! In homes where there’s multiple animals, I always try and get the rundown of their relationship so I know how they act around each other, and know who’s more dominant in the household. I love bringing all sorts of fun to the table. If your animal loves water, I will absolutely incorporate that in a visit. If your animal likes long walks, that’s what they’ll get. I love taking care of each dogs individual needs.

“Stephany was absolutely amazing with our dogs. I found her two days before we left for vacation. She came and met our dogs before the house sitting started. I was a little worried because I’ve never left our dogs to be cared for by someone else and we have a king Shepherd who is pretty territorial and not always friendly to unknown people. He took right to her along with our other two dogs. She sent text messages and pictures/videos daily with updates on how the dogs were. She even brushed them out for us, vacuumed the living room and cleaned up. Super happy with how well she took care of our fur babies while we were gone. Would absolutely recommend her and use her again when we leave town!”

“Kelly was fantastic! She stayed with our dog at our house for three nights. Our dog was so well taken care of, happy, and enjoyed his time with her. She kept us updated each day with messages and photos. We will use her again when we need someone. Thank you!!”

About: My schedule varies and I can be available for you and your pet needs. I have had at least 1 dog and/or 1 cat for most of my life. I currently work from home and can break away to attend to your pets needs. I can also work from your residence if you would like. I have a blue healer mix and a cat who are well fed, entertained and enjoy their lives. I can share my caring self with your pet as well.

“Bridget was very friendly and made sure to send us so many picture updates of her time spent with our pup! She gave him lots of outdoor time and play time, I would highly recommend her!”

Emily S.

“Julia is amazing! She was so sweet and caring when meeting our pups. When staying at our house she sent us picture updates each day and the dogs always looked spoiled. You can tell she is an animal lover. She communicates great. Julia gets extra points for having to chase after one of our dogs right when she arrived. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
