“Heather was absolutely amazing! She was very kind and communicative, giving me regular pictures and updates. I felt like my baby boy was well taken care of, which was such a comfort. He seemed to have the best time! Thanks again, Heather!”


About: Hello! I provide pet sitting at Fort Riley. I am a stay- at-home mother so I am always home to give your fur babies lots of attention. I can board or day care for up to 3 cats at a time who will each have their own safe space and I can board or doggy day care for 1-2 dogs. For all pets safety I like to do meet and greet with my dog and companion Arwen to make sure they get along. She is friendly with other dogs as well as cats. Any questions or concerns I am happy to answer and want to know everything about how to best care for your pets. I am currently a stay at home mom of a 10 month old baby, a 12 year old dog and a 4 year old cat. I give all my babies lots of care, love and attention. Your pet will be like another member of the family. My pets are very important to me and I understand that are more than just pets. They are family. I have a friendly dog to keep your dog company. Also my doggie grew up with cats so is friendly around cats. I have a fenced in yard. I also have a few dog crates if needed. I have experience giving my dog and cats medications . I also have experience with treating dog wounds. I keep my pets up to date with vaccines, flea and tick medication and vet visits.

“I had the pleasure of having Cori and her family take care of my dog, Penny, while I was away, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! Cori was incredibly reliable, communicative, and treated my dog like family. She made sure to send regular updates with pictures, which reassured me that everything was going smoothly. My dog looked happy and well-cared for when I returned. Cori also followed all of my instructions to the letter and was very attentive to Penny’s needs. I could tell my dog felt comfortable and at ease, which is always my main concern when leaving them with someone else. Highly recommend Cori for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter! Would definitely use her services again in the future!”


“So sad she is leaving but I can’t thank her enough for her care and commitment to my fur baby! Wherever she goes and whomever has the opportunity to utilize her services will surely be glad they did! Thanks again.”


“Ryan provided good services for my pup. Norman seemed happy when I picked him up and seemed to feel welcomed when I dropped him off. I will rebook with Ryan for my dog sitting needs.”


“Waffles never likes to leave me, but Mercedes treated him like one of her own, and that makes me feel more relaxed about leaving him. Her communication was easy and quick and I appreciate her willingness to accept my request on short notice!”


“She was absolutely incredible. Don’t even think twice about booking with her, just make it happen. She’s super caring, listens, and will always make sure you’re not feeling worried about your furry friend being away. 10/10.”


About: Years of experience caring for foster puppies and cats and kittens up for adoption. Amateur vaccination and grooming experience for dogs. House sitting experience for 2+ weeks for both dogs and cats in multiple households. I am a college students, so stopping in or spending the night to care for someone’s pet is perfect for my schedule. I have lots of experience with this as a pet sitter, so I am happy to accommodate flexible schedules. I love lists that pet owners provide with do’s and dont’s, including feeding, walking, and cleaning times. I am a very affectionate person; however I give animals the space they need because I am a new person to get used to.

About: I have been a dog owner for as long as I can remember. From raising a senior dog to recently a new puppy, I know how to give your dog whatever care they need no matter their stage in life. I am currently working part time and have lots of time in the daytime and evening every week! I will always notify my clients of the different hours I am not available that week, but will always make time for you and your furry friend. I am happy to provide background checks for all of my clients to guarantee that both you and your pet are working with a reliable, safe, and trust worthy pet sitter/walker.

About: Growing up on a livestock farm my whole life, caring for all animals has always been a responsibility and lifestyle of mine that I am very passionate about and really enjoy. Along with caring for livestock animals, I also have a lot of experience with caring for companion animals. I am currently working part time and planning to do Rover as a side job. When I am not in a college class or working my other job, I will have plenty of extra time to care for your pets! I care for all of my pets very thoroughly. I ensure they always have fresh food and water twice daily, I make sure they have enough outdoor time and exercise, and I always go above and beyond to ensure their overall health and wellness is always in excellent condition.

“She sent a video and pictures of Luna while she had her, she was flexible with the drop off and pick up time, and Luna seemed very happy and comfortable when I picked her up! We will definitely be booking Arileigh again!”


About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life, I have a ton of hands on experience with others pets as well as my own. I have two pets a cat and a dog. I’ve worked for wag and have pet say for others outside of apps. I work 8-5 Monday through Friday, l always have weekends off and anytime after work is free. I can be available at an instance notice. I have a lot of experience with older dogs who have trouble, and I make sure that I take care of others home better than I would my own.

About: We have had cats and dogs in our home since 2009. I have experience with senior dogs, as well as administering oral and injection medications. I'm currently working full-time, but considering a life change to be home more often. While I'm working full-time, I will do my best to accommodate both of our schedules to help care for your pet. We have 3 dogs and 4 cats. If you are comfortable with your pet being around ours, then they are welcome in our home. Or, I can come to your home to help with feeding, potty breaks, scooping litterboxes, etc.

“Kaylyn was awesome! This was our first time leaving Riley with a sitter overnight so I was pretty nervous, but Kaylyn really knows what she is doing and eased all my worries. She is super responsive, sent tons of adorable pictures of Riley and her pup Ragnar playing and snuggling. Riley was very happy coming home and seemed like he had a good time, we will definitely be booking with Kaylyn again! :)”


“Litsa took care of Munchie so incredibly well! She took time to make sure he was comfortable in the space, worked with him to get him socialized with her others dogs, and helped him have a great visit. Litsa is great about texting updates and pictures, and even took the effort to work on some training commands with Munchie too. We are extremely happy with Litsa’s boarding services and will definitely use her again in the future!”

Isabel W.
“We have used Isabel several times for pet sitting our 2 dogs and 1 cat. She is very responsible, reliable and LOVES on our pets! She has a very calm demeanor that one of our very shy dogs really needs. She quickly won over our very timid doggie and was able to provide full care for her as well, including medication administration. I first met Isabel when I presented information to college students about a dog fostering program I belonged to and Isabel eagerly signed up as a volunteer. She donated many many hours helping with different dog care needs including walking, feeding, companionship, helping with adoption and fundraising events. She also volunteered and helped regularly with the care of the foster cats. It was while watching this volunteer work and seeing her absolute love and compassion she has towards all creatures that I was motivated to approach her about private pet sitting. We never had any concerns when Isabel pet sat for us, including a 9 day period when she stayed in our home. No reservations highly recommending her!”


Ava H.
“From an early age, Ava has had a strong passion for animals and our pets (small and large dogs) have always gravitated to her. Ava is very loving, kind, and patient and these characteristics are on display when she is caring for pets. These traits are also key strengths in her relationships with people (i.e. owners). She is a fast learner, quickly adapts to different situations, and has fantastic communications skills. Ava is studying Early Elementary education and much of what she has learned about taking care of small children easily transfers to taking care of pets. She also fully understands that pets are part of their owner's family. I would highly recommend Ava and am sure your clients will be satisfied with her ability to be a responsible and loving pet caregiver.”


Shannon R.
“Shannon did a wonderful job taking care of all my fur babies! I would hire her again in a heart beat! She made sure my dog got his medication at the right times & gave them all lots of attention & love! I was at ease knowing my animals were in good hands & thankful for all of the picture updates she sent me.”

Stephanie T.
“It's hard to write just a few sentences about Stephanie. For years I worked with her in an IT department where she was exceptionally thorough and detailed in her very demanding role; yet her love for animals was clearly evident. In an IT department people are... weird, but Stephanie was the 'normal' one with people skills. She was the one that said 'happy birthday' and asked how you were. She cares about people and loves animals. I have friends who did dog rescue for Belgian Malinois (no easy task) and were very, very good at it, but I don't know ANYONE who loves animals more than Stephanie. At worked we often thought that she was destined to have her own zoo - and the animals would absolutely love it. I cannot think of an animal she doesn't love - dogs, cats, horses, possums, raccoons, pigs, cows, hedgehogs... you name it. If it's a critter, she loves them. She has a good heart towards all critters and is very competent at everything she does. Back in the IT department job there were people I did not want to work with, but Stephanie was excellent. On a scale of 1 - 10, she'd be an 11.”
