“I was extremely impressed with how prompt and attentive she was my dog Hades. I've struggled to find trustworthy sitters in the past that didn't just kenneled up the dogs for the whole day, but I am amazed with how great this experience was!”
“Kymberly was wonderful! She took my booking at the last minute and then worked with us as we had schedule changes. She was prompt with communicating and provided regular updates on our dogs. They were well taken care of and we'll use her services again!”
“I had a great experience with Randi! She took such good care of my dogs and kept me updated regularly with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. The dogs seemed happy and well cared for, and I definitely plan to use her again in the future!”
“Whitney and her family took excellent care of our lab with multiple walks, playtime with her kids, and excellent attention to the details in his routine. When he developed GI issues that required vet evaluation, she was easy to communicate with and was proactive about calling both our vet office’s on call veterinarian and then the K-State vet center as well. She washed our dog and all his bedding before he came home to us so there was no hint he’d been sick in his kennel. 10/10 would absolutely recommend her!”
“We highly recommend Amanda. She kept Roscoe for six days and he got excellent care and all the attention he wants (and that's a LOT!) She was very flexible, sent many pictures and is so kind and warm. We'll definitely ask her to keep him again!”
“Haylea took great care of our 4 month old puppy! She was super flexible when we changed our pickup time to later in the night. The pup came back very happy and tuckered our! Will definitely book again.”
“Amazing experience! I have a very shy shar-pei, so I was concerned about leaving her. Nicole put my mind at ease and treated Ginger as if she were her own! I was thrilled to see how quickly Ginger opened up to Nicole through text and picture messages. Nicole was always the first to contact me, which I appreciated! Nicole also kept Ginger on her regular food and potty schedule; helped Ginger with her walking and socialization skills, and even took her to the beach! I couldn't be happier!”
“Feel absolutely blessed to have Ashley watch our dog for us when we are out of town. Our dog feels right at home at her house every time which says so much about the care Ashley gives him!”
About: I’ve taken care of countless roommates dogs, before getting my own a couple years ago. Before getting my own I did lots of research on training so she could have a happy, healthy, and safe life. I am committed to a dog’s safety and happiness. I am big on positive reinforcement which is how I’ve trained Buttercup. I’ve worked with multiple dogs on leash training, off leash training (minimal), potty training, and other general commands (sit, stay, come, heel, etc.). I’m currently between jobs and waiting for a start date for my new position so my availability is extremely flexible! I’d love to drop in to visit your doggos or Buttercup and I are happy to host at our house. Pups (6months+) and dogs are allowed everywhere in my house except my personal bed. It is a modest home, with a fenced back yard (dog castle included). My dog, Buttercup, loves other dogs and is eager to play and be friends when they are. She has had interactions with both younger pups as well as much older doggos (up to 9 years old) and all interactions have gone well. While she’s on the medium-large end (70-75lbs) her best doggo friends range from significantly smaller (7-12 lbs) to much larger (100+lbs). She interacts well with different sizes.
“They were amazing with Clark. With all the playing the dogs did over the weekend, I picked up Clark and he immediately napped. Couldn’t recommend them more!”
“Mason was so kind and helpful with Storm even giving me recommendations for toys and feeders that Storm showed preference to. I was a little nervous to leave Storm with someone but Mason eased my concerns and I know Storm will have good, loving company if I ever need a sitter again!”
About: Lifelong dog owner & lover of Labs and Brittanys—dogs are truly part of our family. Currently proud parents to a Silver Lab and a sweet rescue hound mix. I currently work full-time 9-5 with a five minute commute to work. I have the ability to make trips home when necessary. Our dogs never go longer than four hours without a bathroom break! Our pets are part of our family. They have full access to furniture including beds and couches. We have a fully fenced in backyard that is used for long play times.
“The absolute best! We are so grateful for Krystal for taking such good care of our special needs dog. Beyond her being incredibly flexible with our wild weekend, Krystal made sure our Wylie stayed on his schedule, was happy, and so loved during his stay. Will be contacting her again!”
About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs/animals my entire life, from cats to dogs, as well as cattle being a Wisconsin girl at heart working on my uncles farm. I’m a stay at home mom, making me available all the time for pet care unless the calendar states otherwise! I’ve potty trained, crate trained, and have experience giving medications to dogs. I have a beautiful fenced in yard for lots of play time outdoors for your pet, as well as ample space to board them for any duration of time you need! We are a military family, so I understand the struggles that come with having pets between training missions, trips home to visit, deployments etc. I want to offer a reliable service, at an affordable rate, to work best for you and your pets! I also send daily video/photo updates of your pet! Being a stay at home mom gives me the flexibility to take your pet last minute but to also go to your home to check on them if that’s the preferred method! I’m a stay at home mom, which allows me to be available almost all the time for pet sitting! That reliability grants even last minute care for you and your pet! I have a fenced in yard, as well as I live in a quiet community so taking your fur baby for a walk/letting them have space to run is not a problem! If they need some time alone I have a 2600 SQFT home that offers lots of down time if they need it, as well as I have a crate incase they need a “safe” place due to storms/artillery sounds etc for the anxious ones!
“Jessi was amazing! She took such great care of our dog Sam. He got lots of cuddles, walks, and play time while with her, and she was very understanding and helpful with his separation anxiety. She is very knowledgeable and trustworthy, I highly recommend Jessi to care for your furry friend !”
About: I have always grown up with animals in the house. Always at least one dog and a couple cats as well as other animals. With my parents working full time, I have always been the one to take them to the vet, for haircuts, on walks or runs, swims and be sure that they take their medicine. Willing to care for any animal :) I have a full time job and can care for pets after work and on the weekends. My cat is very laid back. I would love to be around more dogs! I have a small fenced yard but live close to tons of parks and the linear trail. I would love to walk them anywhere you feel comfortable
“Amber is an amazing dog sitter! She was so kind and loving to Olivia. She totally spoiled her. The best part were the pictures she sent of Livie having the time of her life. It helped me have a good time too knowing she was in such good hands!!”

Crissie is a exceptional furbaby caregiver. From the start, she was very attentive to listening to our needs for our furbaby while in her care. She assured us that she was qualified to deliver and loved interacting with furbabies. And deliver, she did! She made sure she kept us informed of how our furbaby was adjusting to his new environment while we were away from us through messages, photos and video clips. This type of communication made us feel at ease, seeing that our little furbaby boy was enjoying his time with Crissie and Booker her dog, who is such a gentle spirited sweetheart. If you are looking for someone who is kind, considerate and cares about your pet's well being then look no futher as Crissie and Booker are perfect for the job🤗. She will help you feel that your furbaby will be in good hands while you are away from them. By the way, now when I say " lets go see Crissie and Booker, right away our little furbaby wags his tail and sprints towards the door with such excitement 😆. Seeing Gustavo show such excitement just mentioning going to visit Crissie and Booker assured me that he was well loved and cared for while in her care. Thank you Crissie and Booker for providing top-notched care for our little boy, Gustavo. We are looking forward to our next visit with you guys!🤗😺
Amanda and her family warmly welcomed our sweet Schnoodle, Harley, into their home. They played with her and took her on walks all the while continuing to update us with pictures and comments of how things were going! We would absolutely feel comfortable leaving our dog with Amanda again.
