Dog Sitting in Mission Hills

About: I recently left an executive position with an animal welfare nonprofit/veterinary clinic. In my newly acquired free time, I'd love to help you with your pet(s)! I have handling experience and am comfortable with both dogs and cats. If you have a nervous animal, I'm happy to try to ease in to being their new friend. I also have experience administering medication to pets. Until I decide to seek another full-time position, I'm available most days and some evenings. I would be open to regularly scheduled walks or drops ins for the next several weeks. Our family has 2 cats and 3 dogs and we love them all dearly. I've also fostered for KC Paws as well as my former organization.

“I would book again! Reagan stayed the full 30 minutes during the drop-in visits and my shy cat eventually came out of hiding for playtime and cuddles during her visits.”

“Chandler was awesome! She took amazing pics of our cat that we looked forward to seeing every day. Luna looked like she was taken care of well!”

Connor B.

“Michaela was amazing with our large dog! She took him on walks and provided us with picture updates. We felt great about leaving the dog with her and would absolutely use her again.”

Gunnar G.

“Evelyn did an amazing job. My cat normally doesn’t like people and she was giving her cuddles every time she visited. I highly recommend because animas love her and she always sends daily pics to reassure your pet is happy .”

“Valerie is an awesome pet sitter! She takes excellent care during her check ins with our cat, and even went above and beyond to care for our gecko. She’s great.”

Tessa B.

“Jill and her daughter took such good care of our two cats! She left detailed notes about their check in, including lots of pictures. It made me feel assured that our kitties were safe and happy while we were gone.”

Rebekah P.

“Shannon is fantastic! She takes such great care of my cat, Mickey. She goes above and beyond her duties as a pet sitter, from leaving pet waste bags behind for me to try to giving me recommendations for places to visit on a recent vacation. She is the greatest!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up with dogs taught me not only how to care for them, but also how to understand their unique personalities, needs, and routines. For the past 13 years, I’ve provided trusted pet and house sitting services for families, caring for pets as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I understand how important it is to maintain their routine, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and create a safe, comfortable environment while you’re away. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a familiar and caring presence, I’m committed to making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands. As a full-time artist, I have a flexible schedule and don’t work a traditional 9-to-5 job, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, whether that means drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, walks, administering medications, or simply providing companionship and comfort. Because I work independently, I can be flexible with scheduling and am often available throughout the day for check-ins and updates. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I make it a priority to maintain their routines so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, and I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely so pets can stay in a familiar environment with minimal disruption. This includes feeding schedules, walks or litter box care, playtime, medication if needed, and any specific routines or preferences your pet is used to. I also focus on giving pets plenty of attention and companionship so they feel calm and secure while their owner is away. I’m very mindful of keeping the home clean and respecting the space, and I always provide updates so you know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s dogs or cats, my goal is to create a stress-free experience where your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for until you return.

“Cami is very reliable and takes great care of my dog with drop-in visits and walks several times per week. She is responsive to scheduling requests and is very professional. I enjoy seeing the photos of my dog during check-ins while at work!”

Sara W.

“We had to go out of town last minute for a funeral and my pets loved Ava last time so I was hoping she would be available. We got lucky! She spent some quality time with them on what would otherwise be an extremely long day and I was so appreciative!”

Elizabeth C.

“Jennifer was great! She came over once a day to feed the cat and clean the litter box. I got lots of updates and photos. It was nice to get messages from someone who enjoyed hanging out with my cat.”

About: Hi everyone. I live with my sister who has two golden retrievers, and I also have two cats. I have always loved animals and am looking for occasional jobs. I have walked a variety of dog breeds, and have housesat for several friends and neighbors. Starting in January I will be starting my school psychology practicum which will be from 7 am-3 pm, but am free in the evenings and most weekends. I am available after 3 pm on weekdays. I am also free on weekends or over holidays whenever school is out. I can be flexible, but based around our school districts calendar. I have experience with big and little dogs. I enjoy walking them, playing in the yard or at the park, as well as spending one on one time with them. I also am used to playing with more than one cat, so I am comfortable with this as well.

“Katie did a great job with our herd. She was attentive and communicated well, giving us confidence that both our dogs were in good hands in our absence. They definitely made a new friend! We will absolutely use her again in the future. Much thanks Katie!”

“Michael is wonderful! Our cat has to be pilled manually every day and is very attention hungry. Michael spent quality time with her and pilled her daily while we were out of town. He also took lots of pictures.”
