Dog Boarding in Manhattan

I have been working with dogs for the last 15 years. From being a manager at a kennel to fostering for a local rescue group. I currently have two dogs of my own and a menagerie of other pets. I consider myself well educated in not only the care of our K-9 friends but in their behavior as well. I am almost always available, even on weekends! I am comfortable with all breeds as well as any age. I currently have an 11 year old Border Collie cross , and a very energetic terrier mix. I am able to give oral medications and will treat your critters as if they were my own. I was born a dog lover and can't think of anything else I would love doing as much!

We are an avid pet family consisting of two dogs, cats, fish, and chickens. I have lots of experience with various animals as I grew up on a farm.

I have 3 children, (ages 13,15,18) and they love to help care for pets too! One aspires to be a veterinarian and loves to care for animals and take them for walks. He was the pet walker for our old neighborhood and is very responsible. The boys quickly develop their favorites and are happy when we see them come back to us or get to go visit them again!

We will go to your home for pet services (however, no overnight stays) and are willing to let smaller pets (under 40 lbs.) stay with us. I know all about the dilemma that owners face in regards to leaving their pet in a strange place and would love to help put you and your pet's mind at ease!

About this sitter:

We live in a convenient location (3 minutes from the stadium!) yet we are in a somewhat secluded area at the end of a culdesac . Our home is surrounded by a forest of trees, serene views and very little traffic.

Meet my pets:

We have 2 dogs and a growing number of cats. We also have a flock of chickens housed in a coop in the backyard.

About my yard:

We have a large front and back yard (over an acre). Our home is surrounded by beautiful nature with several acres of undeveloped land, chicken coop, garden, and a treehouse. Our furry friends enjoy the sights and sounds of many birds, squirrels, bunnies, turkey, and deer. For peace of mind, pets are never left outside unattended for any reason =)

My experience with animals of all kinds, particularly dogs and cats, includes working as a veterinary assistant at two different small animal clinics, several years with a groomer, at more than one dog boarding/daycare facility, as well as numerous dog sits for friends and family. Also, I have a pre-vet bachelors degree in Animal Science. Best of all, I can't leave out the glorious years of dog and cat ownership!

Care for your pet/s should be nothing less than the best, as I would seek the same for my own. My availability is quite flexible and my work ethic is solid. I am punctual, very reliable, and true to my word. One of my favorite activities is taking my dog on walks and especially going hiking, so the more energy your dog needs to burn the better! Of course, any and every pet is treated with patience and kindness, as they all deserve.

Hi I’m Casey I lived in Kansas City for almost 6 years and I loved it! My work has brought me back to Manhattan and I’m so excited for the next chapter! I’ve been with Rover for about 3 years. It’s been a wonderful, rewarding experience and I look forward to meeting new people and pets in Manhattan! I’ve always had dogs in my life! I have a 5 year old female blue heeler named Kammi who loves to play and is very high energy. She loves other dogs and people and would love to have another playmate around. She keeps me on my toes! I live on a quiet cul-de-sac with a fenced in yard and we go on runs and walks often. I would love to take care of and love your pup while you are away. They will get lots of play time, love and attention! Can’t wait to meet all the doggies :)

Hello!

My name is Randi and I moved here from Tucson, Arizona where I worked as a vet tech at my local county animal shelter. I currently have my bachelors in veterinary science and hope to eventually go to Graduate school to become a veterinarian. I have experience with small animals and some exotics (I did work at PetSmart for a short period of time in animal care). My schedule is flexible and I can also medicate any animals that are on medication. I have experience with fractious dogs and cats as the shelter world is full of them, and can be animal behavior and am fine with protective/shy animals. I would like to watch your furry kids while you are away so message me if I seem like a good fit for your kiddos!

*Starting the beginning of March I will have more availability during the day to spend time with your fur kids as this is my #1 priority! :)

I have been around animals and specifically dogs all my life. My first job was at a small doggy daycare in Wichita Kansas where I not only was taught how to board, groom, walk, train, and give extra love, but also how to run a successful small business. From there I have now worked at 3 different doggy daycares since I moved to Manhattan, KS. I am a senior at K-state in the Animal Science and Industry major with a business minor. I currently work nights (6:30pm-11pm) at the K-state Veterinary Health Center where I have gained experience feeding, medicating, cleaning, and caring for a variety of animals, but mostly dogs. Other than that I am extremely flexible with time phrames and tasks. I do have a rescue dog, named Helios, he is an almost 2-year-old medium sized mutt and I have yet to find a dog he didn't love as much as I did!

Update as of May 2019:

I now have a full time job Mon-Fri and unfortunately this has made my availability go down, and I apologize. I still can do drop in visits or walks before 7:30 AM and after 5:30 PM, and then of course my weekends are completely available for any sort of service!

Hello! I would love to get the chance to meet you and your fur baby! Growing up my family always had atleast 2, usually more, animals in the house. I have cared for dogs, cats, lizards, fish, rodents, and all farm animals! I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats. We love to go to the dog park, or just go for a casual walk around the neighborhood. We have a fenced yard so the dogs can run all their energy out multiple times a day. When your babies are in my care, they will be treated exactly like family here! Dogs do not need to be okay with cats as we can put the cats in their own room but they do need to be okay with other dogs due to me having dogs and the possibility of other boarders here as well. Cats are always excepted and can have their own personal room if needed.

I have had dogs and cats for my entire life, and starting around 10 we lived on a ranch. I have cared for everything from Dogs, Cats, Pigs, Goats, Horses, and more. I worked as a ranch hand for two years in California taking care of all the animals and learning how to preform basic medical care, and spent another year volunteering with dogs that couldn't find homes for one reason or another. I am a firm believer that our pets are our family, and should be treated as such. I have three dogs; a 10 year old corgi mix, a 8 month old German Shepard puppy, and a 4 year old Shepard mix. I am willing to take care of all size dogs, and all ages. I live on Fort Carson, and while dogs stay here they will get to enjoy toys, a fenced in back yard, and a full day of play. If it is needed I am willing to pick up dogs for day care to make life a little easier on pet parents.

I have always enjoyed interacting with animals from a young age. From catching snakes to saving stray cats and dogs. I have many years experience working with animals and I have enjoyed working with a few animal rescues. I am not intimidated by breed or size. I enjoy high energy dogs or netflix and chill dogs. I am very active and love taking dogs out on runs and hikes. I have experience with fostering both cats and dogs who were abused and dealt with emotional issues. Cats are welcome! I have an extensive knowledge of animal nutrition. I really love to cook for humans and animals alike and with your permission or upon your request I will cook your pet a gourmet treat. Contact me!
