House Sitting Leonardville

“I was at ease since the meet and greet! She is extremely communicative and makes sure to ask questions if she needs clarification. My dogs have special needs, including reactivity, medication, and a crate and rotate system, and she handled it all very well. I came home to a clean home and happy dogs!”

“I cannot say enough great things about Kristen! She put so much work and care into my dog Riley this weekend. They went on outings and day trips, they played, and watched Riley's favorite doggy TV. Riley was not only well cared for, but I can see that he was also loved and enriched during his time with Kristen and that just means the world to me. Kristen was also incredibly responsive, amazing taking care of our home, and sent great photos and videos. 100% hope to book again!”

About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve dealt with all kinds of pets. Specifically with dogs, I’ve raised a litter of puppies, trained a bird hunting dog, and trained three dogs for my parents. My hobbies typically involve dogs, and I’ve found myself to be very patient with all dog personality types. I’m great with puppies, senior dogs, and adult dogs. I currently attend Vet School at KSU. My school schedule is typically the same throughout the weekdays, but the hours allow me to spend a lot of time with your pets in the mornings and evenings. I sometimes get done in the early afternoons as well! I’m available everyday of the week in the later part of the days, and most weekends! I would love to be able to share my great amount of down time with your furry friends! I like to follow the instructions of the client when asked to care for their pet. If pets are allowed to roam free while alone, I always ensure there are no potential hazards for them to get into, and any rooms that are off limits have doors closed. Personally, I offer multiple opportunities to go outside for bathroom breaks and to play throughout the day. I use excitement and calmness when interacting with the pet to keep them engaged. When the pet makes it clear they want attention or to play, I give it to them and do not pick a phone/computer over them. The dogs I grew up with, were on a strict time feeding schedule, so I understand the importance of feeding other pets on their schedule as well.

About: For the last 20 years I've been deeply involved with dog rescue and fostering. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments as well as dogs in need of special care. I am an animal lover through and through and I will make sure your friend(s) will get the loving care they deserve. If your pets have medications that they routinely need I have lots of experience with administering meds and dealing with other health issues. I have a relatively flexible work schedule Monday through Friday, I can do walks and play in the early afternoon most days as well as evenings. Ask me about my boarding service as well ! I currently live with three seniors and two younger pups, I live out in the country and have two homes, on one of the properties there are two fenced areas with plenty of room for zoomies. If you would like to board your friends with me, I am fine with having them out and about in the house when I'm present, but they would most likely need to be crated if left alone. Contact me with questions and I can give you more details.

About: Hi! My name is Bentley and I am a Pre-Vet/ Animal Science Major at Kansas State University. This means I will be doing dog sitting in your home. Some qualities that set me apart from other sitters is my level of expertise. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have always been the one to take care of them. However, I also have spent 3 years growing my experience around animals at multiple jobs. I have worked at a doggy daycare, service dog school, and a vet clinic. All of these jobs have allowed me to learn more about the animals and how to properly take care of them regardless or age, size, or breed. I would love to spend time with your pet and give you the comfort you deserve from a pet sitter! Since I am going into my freshman year at K-State my class schedule varies. However, I will always be flexible with hours needed and what works for me. I plan on getting a part time job as well while also ensuring time for your pets! I am very flexible with how I take care of your pets depending on what they are used to with you! However, all pets will be treated with love just like they are my own!

About: Hey there my name is Krystal, thank you for visiting my profile and considering me for your Pet care needs! If you’re like me, your pets are family members. When you can’t be home for them, whether it’s for work, vacation or other obligations, you want your best friends taken care of with the same love and attention you give them. I do my absolute best to make sure each dog that visits my home has a fun, relaxing and stress free stay. I like to consider this a vacation for them and strive to make them feel like they are at their second home. I am an experienced, life-long dog owner and lover. Whether your dog is shy or bold, young or senior, large or small, I will provide loving care for your best friend. My family consists of myself, my husband, my 2 children ages 9 & 12 and my 2 dogs Polkadot (10) & Tobi (<1) My home has a dog door that leads to our fenced backyard so your dog will have plenty of room to run and play. I like to let dogs sleep wherever they are most comfortable and do not require them to be crated at night so long as they are well behaved, potty trained and do not cause a disturbance to others. Guests will have free roam of the main areas of my home during their visit and will be allowed in bedrooms with supervision. All dogs will be separated at mealtimes so that they can eat without disruption and so that dogs don't feel the need to guard resources and also to avoid the chance of anyone getting an upset stomach from eating anyone else's food. Access to fresh water is provided around the clock (Please let me know if your dog is on any type of fluid restriction or if they have a recommended cut off time so appropriate measures can be taken). For dogs that free feed they will be offered food multiple times throughout the day but I am unable to leave food out as to ensure other dogs won't be able to consume it. A quick meet & greet is almost always required prior to a new stay. Occasionally a trial daycare or overnight may be necessary to make sure your pup is a good fit for longer stays. - For the safety of my family, pets and boarding/daycare guests that may be in my care I can NOT keep any dogs that are known to be aggressive in my home, if your dog shows any aggressive behavior at drop off or during their stay that can not be controlled or corrected, services will be subject to termination and your dog will be required to be picked up or alternate care arrangements be made. In the event that a stay is terminated due to aggressive, destructive or otherwise unsafe behavior, refunds will be given at my discretion. -Bring it list- • food• leash• collar/ harness• pet bed/blanket if they have something special they prefer. *I'm so very sorry but I can no longer accept new clients with the following breeds: GSD or Pit Bulls.

“Sierrah was fantastic with the dogs! Spent lots of time with them. She even watered my plants😊”

About: I have had a dog within my household my entire life. Family and friends have asked me to watch their fur babies. I have provided drop in care and overnight care. I am a college student, so my schedule is very flexible to be able to give your fur babies all the love and attention they deserve/want! I can easily crate an animal when needed, I am always watching the clock to make sure I am on time for feedings and medicine. Walks are something I love to do if the animal permits. I am also comfortable transporting dogs, weather that be to a daycare or grooming appointment.

About: I’m a military member an active volunteer in the local animal rescue community. I’ve fostered multiple dogs and cats before they found their forever homes, giving me experience with a wide range of temperaments — from high-energy working breeds to shy or anxious rescues. I understand how important routine, structure, and consistency are for pets. Whether I’m providing house sitting, drop-ins, or walks, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule to keep them calm and comfortable. I’m comfortable administering simple medications, handling strong or active dogs, and caring for multi-pet households. My own two pets are family to me, and I treat every animal in my care with the same level of attention and respect. You can expect clear communication, prompt responses, and regular photo updates while you’re away. I maintain a structured and consistent daily routine, which allows me to provide dependable, attentive care. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting on weekends and weekdays after 4pm, with flexibility for early mornings when needed. Pets in my care receive regular exercise, feeding on schedule, and intentional engagement throughout the day. I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Safety is my top priority — all introductions are done slowly and intentionally to ensure compatibility. I always follow your specific care instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and supervision. In your home, I maintain cleanliness, security, and clear communication throughout the stay. You can expect regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I’ve take care dogs since I was 7 always around dogs and always helping neighbors with their dogs. It is the best environment that I love to in it. I’m currently working on base but I’m always available after 5 pm and weekends for walking daily after 5 pm or staying with me if someone needs to travel. I have a fenced backyard and friendly dog that loves to play so I have enough space for more dogs and toys for them to play.

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from family pets to farm animals. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, including energetic puppies and older pets who need extra patience. I’ve also shadowed veterinarians and spent time learning about animal health and behavior, which helps me notice the little things that keep pets safe and happy. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering simple medications, and making sure each pet feels loved and cared for. Whether it’s going for a walk, playtime, or just keeping your pets company while you’re away, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available during breaks throughout the day for walks and drop-ins, as well as evenings and weekends for longer visits or overnight care. If you have specific timing needs, just let me know. I’ll do my best to work around your schedule so your pets always get the care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I follow your routines closely, keep things tidy, and make sure your pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. Safety is my top priority! I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I pay attention to each pet’s specific needs. I’m also happy to provide regular updates with photos, so you can feel at ease knowing your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away.
