“Kristen is timely, takes good photos, and gives great descriptions of the walks she takes with our pups. We know what kind of experiences they had and we can see the route they took on their adventure. Kristen is professional, kind, and flexible. Your animals would truly be in great hands with her.”

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was little, around 11 years old, but have lived with cats since I was 2 years old. I do have a senior cat, and ferret. Im experienced in giving cats, dogs and ferrets medication for health issues they have had in the past. I’m not expert in everything, but I’m not afraid to learn! I’m currently working full time, but enjoy a busy schedule and a good routine. If I need a specific day off, I can work it out. I’ve been working since I was 14, it has made me more responsible, reliable, and determined. I have two cats, and one ferret, I'm fully responsible for them. I take care of their daily care, vet visits, trim their nails, give them baths, and everything in between. They have been under my care for more than 5 years. I’ve had experience with rodents, birds, and dogs.

About: I love all animals and enjoys their company. I'd love to take care of your dog(s) and cats while you're away, so you don't have to worry. When I'm not traveling, I work from home full time, so animals will have plenty of attention and go outside pretty frequently. I have a large yard on rural property and there's a dirt road to get in a several walks. Your dog will have supervised and/or leashed access to the outdoors. There's a lot of room to run. I have had experience handling medications for animals for several years, as my cocker spaniel took medications for glaucoma and congestive heart failure. You can trust that your pup will be spoiled here, like one of my very own. :) I am currently home full time but job hunting so animals have care 24/7. Hoping to find remote work but if this changes I will update here. My animals are friendly with all dogs. I keep all dogs leashes while outdoors. We make sure all doors are closed and all food and poison items are not within reach

About: We provide care in our home and treat your babies like our own. We walk them multiple times a day, love on them, take them on field trips when possible, we spoil them rotten. We can help with crate training, potty training, house Manners etc. We have experience with Senior dogs ( most recent passed this December 2024 at 15 years old). I have had diabetic pets so am willing to administer meds as required. I have volunteered with a local rescue for 4 years now and have fostered for that long as well and have experience dealing with many difficult behaviors like resource guarding, counter surfing and more. Here at Bark n Kuddles we are a husband and Wife team so our dogs are very rarely alone. I teach high school so during the school day my husband takes the pups on walks, and outings and provides play time and snuggle time. When I am home we share the responsibilities and our kids are trained so they love on your babies too but they know boundaries and are very good at being mini pack leaders. The only time your pet would be alone is if we had to go somewhere as a family where dogs could not come but we have two pups of our own to keep them company but again that is rare that someone is not home. We only take one or two clients at a time as we have a small home but we take the dogs out on walks (Distance depends on the dogs need but could be 2 to 3 miles easily) and I have access to a big fenced in yard that my family owns should dogs need off leash time and play time (under our watch at all times of course). We do crate dogs when home alone for their safety and to protect the house but they get yummy kongs with frozen treats and other treats as long as owner is ok with it. We love on them how the pups want to be loved on. If they want to lay next to us we let them. If they prefer to just chill off to the side that's all good too. We also follow all owners instructions whether in our home or yours and give your baby the attention they need to keep them happy and safe while you are gone.

“Abigail is awesome with my two dogs. She is always there when I need her and makes sure my pups get a good walk during the week days!!! Highly recommend her!!”

“This is our first time using Rover and Holly has been so wonderful! Not only is she on time and reliable, she is great at communicating and my dog is so happy for his walks! She happily incorporates his training during his walks and checks in with us, asking questions when needed to make sure she is doing everything right. I would highly recommend 🐾”

About: I have always had a soft spot for animals. I began working in the medical field but realized my heart was in the place to care for animals instead. I have my own "misfit farm" of unwanted animals and in my down time I am taking on dog walking/pet sitting. I am knowledgeable in many animals including dogs, cats birds, small animals, exotics and farm animals. I currently own a Great Pyrenees, Can Corso, Miniature dachshund, a cat plus 3 rescue goats, bunnies and a ton of chickens. I can also help with basic training and using an E collar. Medications or special needs animals is also something I am comfortable with. I do have kids who love to go on walks with me when I am dog walking, but it is not necessary for them to come with . My dog sitting calendar is filling up quickly! At this moment I am boarding dogs on a case by case basis so just reach out and we can chat! I am available for house sitting, however cannot accommodate regular overnight stays but can accommodate frequent and lengthy visits. I am a mom to 3, but am pretty much open and available for your needs. Hanging out with animals is a strong passion of mine and I often use the extra cash to do things with my kids. I cannot accommodate overnights in my house sitting but can offer lengthy and frequent visits I am available for walking, feeding, caring, loving and walking your babies of whatever species and breed. I am extremely responsible and comfortable with administering medication if need be and am very cautious when it comes to walking or letting the animal outside or when it comes to rules you have for your pet. There is very little I wouldn't be able to do, so little I can't even think of one at the moment. You can trust that I will love and care for your animals like they were my own. I can even show you pictures and videos of my very spoiled pets for reference!

About: I've had many pets over the years, from dogs and cats to other very exotic animals. I've helped take care of many friends' dogs, and I am qualified to make sure your pets stay safe while you're away. I'm currently a full time student with a part time job at a local ( dog friendly ) brewery. I have full availability to take care of your pet all day, every day. I have a very large open yard, however I never walk anyone's dog without a leash and full supervision. Your pets will be treated very well under full supervision and with any personal instructions if need be.

“My dog loves when she shows up to walk him. Sydney was great. She was always on time and quite interested to make sure everything was okay for my guy.”

About: I have house/dog sat for 7+ years now around my old neighborhood. I have cared for pets (cats and dogs) of many ages and breeds. I am experienced with giving your fur babies the medications that they may need and the amount of exercise they require. I am experienced with caring for young and old dogs and will personalize care however you prefer. My pup requires a long walk every day so I am used to walking long distances if needed; it is completely up to you to decide! I have a SUPER friendly boxer. He plays very well with other dogs, big and small. He loves all dogs, humans, cats, you name it. I also currently foster for a Belgian Malinois rescue and have a ~2yo mal foster. She is also friendly and does well with dogs but prefers neutrality. If your dog isn’t friendly or prefers alone time, that is also fine! I am easily able to separate dogs so that they can have a neutral environment. I work from home currently, so I am available to take the pups out whenever they need. My dogs usually get a long walk (1-4 miles) and any dogs I watch are welcome to join! If they cannot handle a longer walk they can get a shorter walk before or after my dog’s walk. I leave for about an hour a day to work out or run errands. At most I’m gone 2 hours from my house. I live in a neighborhood and have a semi large yard. My yard is not fenced but I have long lines (leashes) that I will take your dog out on to run and get exercise if they do not prefer walks. They will always be supervised and on-leash outside to prevent any accidents!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I have cared for them when they have been at there very best and worst and given them the most love. I’m currently a senior in high school but I only go for a couple hours a day. I also work part time at before and after care. I’m mostly looking for times to fill in during my free time, including during break and over the summer. I will make sure that everything thing is safe in the area for that pet. And they have everything they need during my time with them.

“Alyvia was great! She had great contact with me and kept me updated with when she was coming! She is very reliable and great with fur babies! I highly recommend her 🤩”

About: Hello! I have been a zookeeper for roughly four years, and have a very in-depth knowledge of animal care. I have a huge heart and passion for animals. I've had my own dogs for over 15 years of varying breeds (pitbulls, border collies, boxers, huskies, Cane Corsos). Many of my family members are professional dog trainers, and I've taken training classes through school and Humane Societies in Colorado & Wisconsin. I know how important exercising a pet can be (physically & mentally) and how important they are to each pet owner. Pets are a part of everyone's family, and I'll be sure to give your pet the best adventure possible! I'll be sure to share photos of our adventures & updates throughout our time together! I would be happy to take care of your pet while you are on vacation, so you have nothing to worry about with them! I currently have my own animals that I take care of. I have also worked for places that take care of animals (zoos, wildlife rehabilitation). I will let your pet warm up to me at his or her own pace (treats, if allowed, will help this process). I am patient with every pet.

About: Hi! Taking care of animals has always been an enjoyment of mine. From helping lost or hurt animals to watching over pets, I'm always willing to take care of any animal. I regularly take care of stray cats and even took in a young pregnant one who needed the help. This resulted in me now having a bunch of kitties, they are all such sweethearts with their own personalities that I can't imagine life without them! I've also been dog sitting on and off for my neighbors and friends since I was 15, I have been the go to pet sitter for many in my circle these last few years. I pay special attention to their needs and make sure to follow any specific instructions given. I am more familiar with taking care of cats and dogs but I am open to looking after any animal! I adore all kinds As of right now I do work, my work schedule is slightly different each week, so a little flexibility might be needed to figure out the perfect time range for me to drop by and check on your pet!! I care for pets in my clients home by following any instructions given when it comes to the pets needs. I stay with them for as long as I can, giving them utmost attention and play time. I feed them on schedule and I am also able to give any oral medications as needed. I will do my very best to make sure your pet is happy and feels loved while you are away!

About: I have owned dogs for 14 years now, learning from a young age how to properly take care of them. I am on a pre-vet college track, and have volunteered at the King George Animal shelter, along with the Animal Rescue League of Iowa. I am currently available all days of the week with very flexible hours, so I can easily fit daily pet care into my daily routine. In a clients home I will follow all instructions and be mindful of others belongings. The pet will be taken care of and played with as directed.
