My dog loves Katharine, and my daughter's shy dog also loves her. She did a great job walking my dog: she was very reliable and responsive and made my dog happy. I highly recommend her.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was little and have always been obsessed with them! I will treat your pup like my own and give them all of the love and care they deserve. I raised and trained my 1.5 year old pup and can carry on any training with your pup when they are here. I work a full-time remote job so I will be home all day to tend to your dogs needs. I have a 2 year old dog named Finley that I regularly walk before and after work, care for and make treat puzzles for during the day, and I have a very pet friendly home. I am flexible to carry out your dogs routine to make sure they feel right at home! I have a large fenced yard and my own dog to keep your pup company. I can crate your dog when needed or let them roam the house and make themselves comfortable. I always have all food and any hazards out of reach so the pups can’t get into any trouble!

About: I grew up with dogs and cats. I currently own 2 dogs, a pit bull and husky. I also have 1 cat. Over the years I have fostered for the shelter and anytime I find a lost animal, I do everything I can to get them home. I really enjoy being around animals and I love to help people anyway I can so it makes it fun. I am not currently working so free most of the time. I have a medium fenced yard and my husband and daughter love all animals. Although we have a newborn, we keep up work with child/pet safety.

About: I grew up with pets, and have cared for my friends and neighbors pets over the years! I have the most experience with cats and dogs, however I have also cared for other pets like hedgehogs, chickens and snakes! I recently moved to the area and I'm currently taking a sabbatical from my full time job. I have lots of availability! I am available for drop ins and mid day potty/play breaks. I care for pets as if they were my own! I always send pictures to update you throughout my time with your pets. You can trust that they will receive plenty of playtime, affection and cuddles while you are away! Comfortable and familiar with dietary needs, medical needs such as medication administration, or special training you prefer to use.

About: I have pet‑sat for friends and have owned animals since childhood. I currently have two cats of my own, and I’m in veterinary school with hands‑on experience working with both dogs and cats in a clinic setting at school and in a veterinary clinic. I’m comfortable administering medications, including oral and injectable treatments. I’ve also worked with multiple cat rescues and have experience fostering. I would love the opportunity to do dog walks — staying active and walking dogs is one of my favorite ways to connect with pets. I’m available for early‑morning visits and walks before my classes begin at 8 AM. I also have a lunch break from 12–1 PM and I can do walks or drop‑ins during that time. After 5 PM, I’m fully available for evening care. I’m also free most weekends and have open availability over the summer. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and predictable environment for every pet. In a client’s home, I follow your routines closely — feeding schedules, walking routes, medication instructions, and any household rules your pet is used to. I always double‑check doors, gates, and leashes to make sure pets stay secure, and I take time to help them feel comfortable with me before we head out for a walk or settle in for a visit. With my veterinary background, I’m attentive to behavior, stress signals, and overall well‑being. I keep a close eye on how pets are feeling, and I’m comfortable handling medications, special needs, and shy or nervous animals. My goal is to maintain a safe, clean, and low‑stress environment so your pet feels cared for and you feel confident while you’re away.

About: I have always had pets growing up, so I learned at a young age how to care for dogs, cats, fish, and Guinea pigs. I have my own pet currently! I have a cat and her name is Willow. I take care of my cat every day, I check her food and water bowls twice a day and make time to play with her to give her a workout. I do have a cat, so if I end up taking car of your dog for the day I will most likely avoid bringing them to my home unless you tell me that they get along well with cats. I can take them for walks and to the park or for rides if they enjoy that too!

About: I am a current vet student and was a vet tech for 4 years. I have a lot of house/pet sitting and farm sitting experiences! During the week, I am able to pet sit in the early mornings, during my lunch break, and in the evenings. On the weekends, I am free! In a clients home, I spend the time that they want with me. Whether it is just hanging out or playing ball. I feel it all depends on their own needs and what the owners want.

About: Hi everyone! I'm Regan and I am currently a senior at KSU studying pre-veterinary medicine. I have 8 years experience pet sitting for family and friends of pets of all shapes and sizes! I have 3 summers experience working in Veterinary hospitals and am confident in any type of medication administration or with pets with special needs. I am a full-time student and athlete on the rowing team at KSU. This summer, I am starting my Master's program! I am unavailable Mondays 10:30-12, Tuesdays and Thursdays 10:30-4, Wednesdays 7:30-12, and Fridays 7:30-11. I am available on Saturdays and Sundays for most weekends this summer. I do my best to keep my calendar updated, but please message me with any questions or requests, and I will try to make accommodations for different requirements! Currently I am not offering services in my own home due to renting. I am happy to spend time at your house and even stay the nights on weekends if required. I do my best to stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding times, walks, play, and any medication schedules. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. I also keep the home tidy, bring in mail if needed, and send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pets are doing.

About: I have loved and enjoyed taking care of animals since I was a little girl, that’s why I decided to become a vet! Yes, I’m an experienced veterinarian who is completing a year of training at K-State💜 and I’m thrilled to offer my expertise in animal care in the Little Apple 🍎 I’ll be more than happy to provide company and the best care to your furry babies, so they feel loved, safe and happy while you’re away. Besides my professional experience, many friends and family members trust me with the care of their pets because they know that to me, this is not just a job, it’s a lifestyle 💖 I also have my own dear babies who I take care of everyday, can you ask for anything more in a pet sitter? I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide pet sitting support short-notice. Some weeks I work from home so that leaves me plenty of time to go walk, see and keep company to your dog/cat whenever, from the comfort of their own home! We can work with your schedule too and I’ll be happy to adjust according to your and your pets needs. I live with my 2 senior dogs, they’re both rescued and lovely to humans but one of them can be reactive to other animals, that’s why I only offer pet sitting services in your own home. Safety is a top priority for me. I have experience handling all sizes of dogs and cats. I can walk 2-3 dogs at a time and can take care of multiple animals at a time because that’s what I do everyday and I’m so happy and grateful for that. I have experience feeding, administering medications, and of course, even cleaning after pets. I love to take them on walks, play with them, just make them feel loved, safe and happy.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have helped friends by pet sitting, feeding, and walking their dogs. I’ve spent time with both energetic and more laid-back pets, and I enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Professional pet care is a new opportunity for me, and I’m bringing patience, gentleness, responsibility, and genuine care to every visit. Whether your pet wants playtime, exercise, or quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I currently have a flexible summer schedule and would love to help care for your pets. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and can accommodate multiple daily visits. I believe great pet care starts with consistency and attention to detail. I follow instructions closely, keep pets safe, make sure they get plenty of care and attention, and communicate clearly with owners so they know their pets are in good hands.

Crissie was awesome will definitely book with her again for my pup! She came beforehand to meet him and make sure he’d be comfortable and to get to know our routine. She was easily reached and always attentive to my boy’s quirky ways. She sent me lots of updates and gave me quick summaries of their walk. Relieved a lot of stress for me on my 12+ hour shifts! Your pets are in good hands w her

Treated Stitch like her own baby. I felt completely at ease with Stitch in Cheryl's care. Cheryl is more than capable of handling the sometimes rambunctious, sometimes lazy, personality of my AmStaff. She is a confident carer and I couldn't have found better.
