Doggy Day Care in Linn Valley

About: Hello! I am an avid animal lover. I got my first pet when I was 3 years old. It was a kitten named Nicky. He taught me a lot of responsibility and showed me a lot of love. A few years later my my mom added several dogs to the family - miniature Schnauzers, Standard Schnauzer, and a Beagle mix Having these animals in my life has given me great experience and also taught me unconditional love. My previous dog helped me get through the rough days when I lost my mom to cancer. I have learned to care for seniors, animals requiring medication (orally) and how to work with young animals especially puppies. In your employ my top priority will be your pets happiness. Working for you is my only employment and my focus will be on your dog or cat only. They will get my undivided attention and I hope to spoil them like crazy. Since I have dealt with several puppies I can even try to bring some training tips to your dog if needed. Personally, I do still have my pup Julius but he lives with family out in the country loving his best life in open fields He is 12 now, He is my furry angel in he was my little protector. It is so true that not all angels have wings. I would have kept him but I could not afford all of the vet bills when you take care of a pet properly, luckily I have a family member I love so much that was able to provide that. I love spoiling dogs of course with the doggy parental guidelines, this includes specific food regiments and pills. I hope that I will get to meet you and your fur babies soon! I have a very go with the flow attitude except when it comes to animals and people I care about. So they will be number one! In my home I create a safe environment. I'm very aware of other animals around to keep your dogs safety number one priority. Unfortunately in this world people at their dogs off leash and that can be a problem. I have no problem following any regimented food or medication delivered to the animals. Also if I'm in a client's home I would treat it with respect and basically make it look like nothing has changed except your dog has gotten top-notch care. If there's anything specific in the requiring overnight boarding I am more than happy to oblige with that.

“Kelci has watched our dog many times and is so wonderful. You can really tell how wonderful they are when your dog is practically jumping out of your arms, tail wagging, when he gets to their house! They are the best!”

About: I love all animals. I rescue any critter in need that passes my way. I've had cats, dogs, fish, lizards, hamsters, cows and chickens. I have cared for friend's pets on many occasions and it truly feels like I should be the one paying for the cuddles. ;) I am a stay at home mom so I am available to work around schedules. I have 5 animal loving kids who enjoy all the new faces to play with. There are acres for dogs to run on a leash on our property and we just added 2 large fenced in areas for them to run leash free. They can visit the creek and relax in the shade. Pups will be kenneled at night or if I need to leave to run errands. I have open kennels here available. If your pet is not used to being kenneled and is fully potty trained, then they are fine roam the house.

About: My heart belongs to these precious babies God has blessed us with! We always have had 4-legged babies in our home when our children were growing up. But ever since my littlest one passed away around 5 years ago, I still have a void in my heart. I feel that void diminishes each time I am around a little 4-legged baby. I believe that giving love and care is Gods plan! I work part time which allows me the availability to be able to care for these babies as I always do with our own. My husband works from home so he would be around to help take care of your dog when I go into work. Our yard is fenced and we have 2 sweet Goldendoodle babies to help be companions. Our home is cozy, clean, safe and filled with love.

“Sarah and family were so warm and inviting! They treated our dog like one of their own. We have planned for him to stay an entire week with them when we are away on vacation. We trust them fully!”

About: I’ve spent my entire life caring for and loving animals. I was farm raised so my love for animals stretches beyond just cats and dogs. I have had experience with all ages of animals from newborns to seniors in their last stages of life. In the last few years I’ve fostered many animals in hopes of giving them a second chance at life. My pets are my family and I’ll ensure your pets feel welcome and safe with me too! I work from home allowing me to be with the pets almost all the time. I am able to accommodate almost any food or potty schedule, helping pets feel less stressed and in a familiar routine. I have a large fenced yard and two very sweet dogs to keep your pets entertained. We also have a cat who sticks to herself but who also isn’t afraid of new animals. We have 3 children from age 8-16. I can accommodate most schedules including feedings, walking, potty breaks, medicines or any other special needs that your pet might have. Do not hesitate to ask if your pet has special diets, treatments or routines to see if we can make it work.

About: I grew up on a farm and fell in love with animals by being constantly surrounded by them! I started doing Rover in July, 2024 and I am loving it! I am currently living in Gardner, KS and am a physical therapy student at KU medical center. I have an 8 year-old female vizsla who is pictured on my profile, but I often take her to my parents house while I board just to make it easier on myself and your pups! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide your pets with the care that they deserve. I am currently in school Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays but the rest of the days I have completely free! My fairly open schedule makes it easy for me to give your pups lots of care and attention. To me, quality care for an animal means quality time spent with them! This is a skill that comes very naturally to me because I absolutely adore all animals. Making sure that dogs get proper nutrition, physical activity, and loving is very important to me.

About: I have been pet sitting since before my children were born and they are now grown. I am a young retiree with lots of time, but I am also active enough to keep up with even the most energetic babies. Most pets do better in their own environment and routine. Advanced notice is required to prior to gather all the information necessary to ensure a smooth process. Spoiling your pet with all the attention they require is my top priority. With house sitting services, you have the added bonus of having your home looked after as well. When appropriate, I also offer boarding services in my home one client at a time. ***My dog will stay with me on all house sitting bookings*** I adjust my schedule to your meet your babies needs. Your babies come first, my schedule comes second. I am retired, so I spend the vast majority of the day with them. During the meet and greet, I gather all the information needed in order to keep their routine as close as possible to their current routine.

About: I have been around dogs and a variety of other animals my entire life. As stated above I’m a Registered Vet Tech and have no problems caring for all sizes, ages and shapes of dogs. I have no problem administering medication, be it pills or insulin. I’ve worked in clinic, the KCZoo, Boarding Facilities and Shelters. Your Pets will be in great hands with me! I work remotely so would be home with your pet almost always. We take care of our four pups full time and care for my parents seven pups when we do chores out at the farm. With a specialty in large breed dogs- we’ve had Saints, Danes, Wolfies, Mastiffs and I was head volunteer at the Great Pyrenees Rescue of Iowa until we moved to Missouri. We also have experience with the high energy “snow” breeds with a Husky and a Malamute We have a small house in Harrisonville Missouri where I have four dogs of my own. All of which are spayed and friendly with other pets. We require meet and greets prior to any boarding or daycare request to be sure all dogs co-mingle happily :) Keep in mind we have 2 small children (under 3 years old) who are raised to be respectful of all animals, but if your pup is not comfortable with kids this may not be their most comfortable option.

“Brittany was wonderful! I will definitely call on her again!”

About: I’ve owned pets my entire life. From larger breeds to small, I’ve owned them all. We currently have a two year old female Goldendoodle that is super spoiled and friendly, and 10 month old female cat that is also super sweet and friendly! They compete our family! I’ve also cared for family and friends’s pets when needed, so I have lots of experience taking care of other peoples fur babies! I currently work from home, so I have lots of flexibility in my day to tend to a dogs daily needs. I have availability through the week and most weekends as well! I have a fenced in yard and one friendly Goldendoodle that would love to entertain a furry guest! I can crate if desired but for the most part your dog will be treated like family. Our dog is our big baby and spends her day around us and not kenneled throughout the day or night. We used to use her crate at night when she was a puppy and potty training, but she no longer needs it, so she typically sleeps in a room with one of our children. We can try to best accommodate your routine requests to keep your pet feeling right at home!

About: My husband and I currently live in Olathe and I work in the Overland Park area. We are huge animal lovers and have more than 6 years of Extra-large breed dog ownership and care. We have had (2) St. Bernard’s and a Labrador. So it is safe to say that I am a confident large-dog walker/caretaker. I also spent my high school and college years farm sitting, which consisted of caring for multiple types of animals at one time, most very large! It is my goal to make you feel confident that not only is your pet given adequate exercise and care, but that they are cared for safely and with the same standards that I have for my own animals. Cats are also more than welcome! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I work from home and am present all day. This flexibility allows me to provide continuous attention and care to your pets, ensuring they receive the companionship and supervision they need. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, regular walks, playtime, and any special care instructions throughout the day. This constant presence helps maintain a stable environment for your pets, contributing to their well-being and happiness. Caring for pets in my home or my clients’ homes involves maintaining their routines, providing regular meals, administering medications if needed, and ensuring they receive plenty of exercise and affection. I also keep their living spaces clean and safe, engage them with stimulating activities, and monitor their health and behavior closely. Consistent communication with pet owners ensures I meet all specific needs and preferences, providing peace of mind and excellent care for their beloved pets.

“Kassidy did a wonderful job watching my dog Sarge! She sent me some super cute pics during his stay, and he was tired out by the time I picked him up. I’ll definitely have him stay here again in the future!”
