Tell me about all of your dog's personality and needs. Most important: The extent of any anxiety issues and how to respond. What do you do to curb the anxiety? And if your dog has special meds/foods etc..or perhaps an unusual or uncommon behavior...please inform me up front. Be sure that if I see any alarming symptoms or behaviors, you have my promise: I will let you know immediately! I take only one dog at a time. **SPECIAL NOTES: ONLY ADULT DOGS 4+ YEARS OLD.

One Dog At A Time...
Pet care experience
I care for only ONE ADULT DOG (4+ YRS) at a time. I have a good rapport with all dogs--senior dogs most especially. I grew up in rural Kansas and I've always had my own dog, until recently. I've also fostered and helped to re-home dogs. I'm ready to give your furry family member the very best in care. **SPECIAL NOTE: NO DOGS THAT ARE FULLY BLIND OR DEAF, please.
Reviews
Kent did a great job, was excellent at communicating, and I felt that my dog was in good hands while we were out of town.
Kent is fantastic! He’s a true dog lover and really stands out by caring for only one dog at a time. That made a huge difference for our 11-year-old dog, Arti, who can get stressed around multiple dogs. Kent kept us at ease by sending plenty of pictures and updates while we were away, and it was clear Arti was happy and well cared for. He also made sure Arti received his daily medication and gave him all the attention he needed. We would definitely book with Kent again. Thanks Kent!
In addition to being knowledgeable about dogs, Kent is both kind and accommodating. We don’t leave our dog very often and were a bit nervous as to how he would do. Ken was patient with our middle aged pooch, followed our instructions and even sent a few pictures to reassure us he was ok. I hope he is available the next time we need a dog sitter. Worth every penny! Thanks Kent!!
Regarding our plans for spring break, our plans changed multiple times and we were in need of care for our dog kind of last minute considering spring break timing. I am grateful that Kent was able to help us out. Kent was very easy to work with and he took great care of Tansey. He provided daily updates and sent some pictures of Tansey. Kent is very kind and it shows that he really enjoys caring for dogs. Thank you Kent!
