“Laura was the absolute best! Took in my anxious big baby pittie and loved him from the first second. My boy seemed so comfortable and Laura provided pictures, videos and updates during my 24 hours away from Blue. I couldn't be happier or have asked for a better person to care for my boy 💙🩵”
“Taylor was great! She made her home super comfy for our two dogs; one of which tends to be very anxious. Taylor put her at ease, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation, knowing our pups were being well loved.”
“Susan and her family were great sitters! My pup seemed so happy to stay with them, and the photos Susan shared during my trip left me feeling at ease about being away for a weekend.”
“Briah did a great job with my dog. She took him on many walks, showered him with love and kept me updated with pictures and messages. My dog looked happy and well taken care of when I picked him up, and now every time we walk by Briah’s place he wants to go in. It was also very easy to communicate with Briah, I certainly would recommend her to anyone and I am going to book her again.”
“Chris was able to take Oliver at short notice for a trip I went on. We had a prior meet and greet so I felt comfortable with what to expect. Chris updated me on Oliver and sent pictures. Oliver looked like he had a great time with Chris and Dolly (his pup). He went straight to sleep when I brought him home!”
“Stephanie took great care of my two dogs while I was traveling for 10 days. I received lots of updates & photos, which I appreciated. It took away any anxiety I had at being away for that long. Stephanie gave Yoshi her required daily medication and lots of belly rubs. Both Itsy & Yoshi seemed to enjoy their stay. Both slept most the evening once back home. I will definitely book Stephanie again in the future. She was great!”
“Sara took great care of our pup, Carlton over Memorial Weekend! This was his first visit with her and will definitely not be his last. She has plenty of dog toys, all we had to do was bring his favorites. Her back yard is a sniffing heaven. Carlton came home totally calm and happy, so we know that he had plenty of love and attention. Sara kept us updated on their weekend and sent photos/videos. We feel very fortunate to have found such a great sitter/dog lover in Sara.”
“Can’t say enough good things about Adaline!She sent photos and updates! Peace of mind knowing Peanut was in such good hands! Highly recommend, would definitely book again!”
“Rachel is so amazing. She’s been so reliable and dependable, even with our last minute requests, and she always goes the extra mile when caring for our dog Olive. It gives us such peace of mind to know that Rachel is caring for her and we can count on updates from her along the way.”
“Olga is very kind and gave me so much peace about leaving our anxious pooch. Our meet & greet, drop off, and pick up all went smoothly. While we were gone she sent me pictures of their walks. I highly recommend Olga and hope Mabel can vacation there again.”
“Chrissy was great; similar age, size, and demeanor pets in the home, drop off and pick up was easy, unsolicited updates, and kind of let my dog take her spot in the house where she felt most comfortable. Beside being fed and watered, you really can’t ask for anything more.”
“This was the first time boarding our dog and this family was amazing. From the moment we met, I had nothing but good vibes and felt incredibly at ease. The updates and pictures were great and they were so communicative. We will be rebooking for sure!!!”
About: I care for a mini golden doodle for one year since a puppy now I care for a calico cat that’s one years old thanks. I work for KCFD and have some much extra time and would love to take care of your animals I work two days on two days off every other weekend I love playing around the house with the dogs and love going on runs and walks being outside when the weather is nice is everything
“Brittany is so great! She listened to our needs with our pup Josie Mae and took great care of her! We are so thankful to her and her family, and she provided us with daily updates and pics! We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Griffin sent so many pictures and videos, it helped us be able to relax on vacation knowing our lil guy was in good hands. Communication was excellent and his little puppy was super friendly. Would definitely recommend!”
“I have a 12 year old maltipoo and a 4 year old long hair chihuahua.Derrika is a blessing for me because she treats you fur baby like he is her own. She is very loving, caring and patient. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Naji kept my little Rusty for 3 weeks. I was so worried how my 12 lb. Chihuahua would do with her 2 bog dogs. I shouldn't have worried, because her dogs completely accepted him and were so gentle with Rusty. She sent cute pics and videos daily which I was so grateful for. This was my first time I left my boy since I rescued him 2 years ago. Rusty has a few fear problems as a result of his history, but Naji worked so well with him and I truly believe he thoroughly enjoyed every minute during his stay. I would highly recommend Naji and will definitely be using her as my primary pet sitter in the future. Now that I know how much Rusty enjoys company, I will also use her for day care once in a while.”
“Sarah is very attentive to my dogs! There were plenty of updates, pics and they had a great time! Sarah is very patient with my dogs, even the naughty one. :) She responds quickly, is flexible for drop off and pick up and great at communicating. Sarah is our first choice sitter!”
“We can’t recommend Trent and Kalyn enough! They have been our go-to sitters every time we travel, and we trust them completely with our dogs. They provide such loving care and attention, keeping us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. Our dogs always come home happy and relaxed, which is a testament to how comfortable they feel with them. It’s such a relief to know our pets are in safe and caring hands while we’re away. If you’re looking for reliable, thoughtful, and friendly sitters, Trent and Kalyn are the absolute best!”

Regan was delightful! Picked my dog up right at our hotel. Kept us informed. Was flexible when we didn't know exactly when the last event would let out. Sent photos and updates on our pup and she was happy, clean, and in good spirits upon her return. Would love to use him again if we return to Kansas City.
Katelynn was awesome! She was incredibly attentive to details in my dogs’ profiles and I was pleasantly surprised when she just started rattling off information about the meds they take and their different needs I had written out. My dogs were clearly happy and well cared for when I picked them up and we have already rebooked with her for next week!
Our dog, Chloe, had the best time with Emily! She made sure Chloe felt comfortable and loved right away. She also made sure she was well entertained during her stay - taking her to the dog park and playing with her toys. Emily was great with Chloe’s routine and medication. She sent me plenty of updates and gave me tons of peace of mind during our trip! I’d 100% recommend booking Emily as your Rover!
Rio had a great time at Ragan's! He got a lot of attention and loved playing with her dogs. She was super communicative with me while he was there and even let me leave my car parked in front of her house while my family and I went to the Chappell Roan show. Your pup will be in great hands with Ragan and her family!
Kylie is amazing, with her being new to platform I’m sure she will gain more repeat bookings because of how well she does with pets. She did amazing with my senior baby dog and I look forward to using her again, he adapted so well she her which is hard to come across. She is very flexible, accommodating, and informative- highly recommend using someone who is a fellow dog lover and she is it!
