House Sitting in Homewood

About: I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love caring for animals. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs—whether that’s playtime, quiet companionship, or extra attention. You can count on me to treat your pet like family and keep you updated so you always feel at ease. I take care of my three cats morning and night, feeding them three times a day with fresh water at every meal. This routine has taught me the importance of consistency, attention, and creating a calm environment for pets. I’m experienced in providing loving care, monitoring their needs closely, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. I no longer have my dog, but I am more than comfortable with dogs as well! When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their regular routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, exercise, or medication—and give each pet plenty of attention and affection. I make sure their environment stays clean and safe, and I provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Ashlend was awesome! I found her very last minute due to some last minute plans. Even though she already had other dogs she was taking care of she made it work. She made sure to come meet everyone ahead of time and sent sweet pictures. When we got home it was like we never left because I think everyone was so comfortable with Ashlend here. Highly recommend!”

About: Animals have always had an extremely special place in my heart. Ever since I was a kid I’ve helped care for my family’s own pets: feeding them, caring for their health, giving baths, taking them outside and on walks, and pretty much anything else having a pet entails. I also am in the process of beginning volunteering with the cats and dogs at Lawrence Humane Society! I am a full-time student, but I am available whenever I am not busy with classes. I also have a few volunteering shifts throughout each week that I need to work around, and a job (that I will be done with next month). I provide them with food and water, clean up their litter, play with them, take the dogs on walks, and show all the animals lots of love! I am also flexible and open to doing whatever I am able to.

“Absolutely phenomenal care for my pups and my home. Emily texted and sent pics daily keeping me up to date on everything with the dogs. Highly recommend her to care for your furry family members!”

I follow any specific instructions given by the pet owner regarding feeding, medications, and routines. I ensure their environment remains clean and tidy, provide companionship, engage in playtime, and give them plenty of attention.

About: I have had the privilege to have pet's around me most my Life. I have 25 + years’ experience in caring for pets. In 2020 I was a personal and business assistant to a Lovely older Lady in Loch Lloyd. I also took care of her three dogs a parrot when she went out of town. One of here three poodles was elderly so I cared for him, administering oral medicine and assisted walking with a devise/harness. Our pets are our family; they are our fur babies. What I mean by that is they need our attention to details, structure and consideration to thrive. To adequately understand their needs, and communicate with them they need the consistency and consideration when it comes to caring for them. I would feel blessed and honored to care for your precious pet family when you are unable to do so. ♡ I had dogs most of my life but from 2019 - 2024 I had cats. I was Blessed with KiKi first, a friend of a friend had to rehome her because of the atmosphere she was in with the Dog he had, she would always hide. He had her since she was a kitten. When I got here, she was hesitant to come near me, but once we bonded it was like no other connection I've had. Then, my nephew’s cat had kittens, July 1st 2022. I went and visited them ever couple of days. I had only planned to take one, Lucy, but Oliver was my little dude so I took both. Reluctantly, last year I had to rehome them because I lost my apartment after I went through a tragedy that had me unable to work or function for many months. I vetted people for months, putting my fur babies first. I was able to find all 3 of them a single home to go to. They're with a loving family. I currently do Uber (5☆ still☺️). I have been doing it for almost 3 years . I have a lot of flexibility. Which is also a plus if you needed to be taken to the Airport:) I will treat your pets as if they are my own. I will give them the care outlined by you. I will not and cannot use any devises that could cause them harm IE Prong Collars! But know I will give them the time during the time I am with them to assess their needs. I will give them lots of love. Walks, brushing etc. Also clean up hair and other things as needed.

About: I’ve had at least one dog in the house as long as I can remember. I’ve helped care for special needs dogs and laid back dogs by walking, bathing, and administering medications. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find a perfect sitter for your furry family, so reach out if you think i’d be a good fit for you! As a college student at ku I am in several classes. Mondays and Wednesday’s are my busy days but i’m usually done by 5. Tuesdays, Thursday’s, Fridays, and weekends are mostly free! I will not be able to care for any pets in my home as I am currently staying in a dorm on the college campus.

“Jessie did a wonderful job watching my house and taking care of my dog. I could tell after being gone 5 days that Cato was in good hands with the routine updates and pictures. Cato was happy to see me when I got home but was also relaxed. I could tell that he and Jessie got along great.”

“Shannon did a great job. Our pups were well cared for and loved on. Upon meeting them she immediately got on the floor and played with both puppies. She communicated effectively and we would hire her again!”

I’m a mostly stay at home mom looking to bring in some more income, so hoping to make pet care a part of my routine pretty often! I wish I had the space to bring your fur baby into my own home but sadly I don’t. But, I will treat your fur baby and your home with the love and care as if they were my own!
