“Kylee stayed in my apartment over the weekend and was absolutely amazing with a dog who cant be around kids or other dogs. Extremely response, overall super nice person. I came home and my freaking bed was made and the dishes were done!!!!! I mean come on, I dont think my dog was the one that did those things. This is someone you want with your dog.”

“Claire did a great job of bonding with our beagle. Bailey can get a bit of separation anxiety when we leave her, but Claire stuck with it and the two ended up getting along well. Also, she left the house probably cleaner than we left it. We would absolutely hire her again.”

“Could ask for a better sitter! I had to contact Claire late due to a previous sitter cancellation and she was super responsive since throughout the stay. She took great care of Toffee and sent plenty of pictures. Would definitely recommend and happily have her watch Toffee again.”

About: I’ve been able to take care of others’ animals since I could drive on my own and have taken care of both senior dogs and cats, horses, chickens, and other farm animals. I’m a full time student at the University of Kansas and will accept clients where my schedule allows it. That also includes weekdays where I’m not busy. I will drive to your house and stay the night if you have an early riser or stop by multiple times a day so they can go outside or get some lovin. I’m willing to make the drive and care for your critters as if they were my own.
About: I've had dog companions/besties since I learned to walk. They taught me how to love unconditionally, and it made animal care and advocacy my calling. I was studying veterinary medicine before I moved to Topeka, and recently I decided to take animal care back up. I also volunteer at the humane society, so I can spread that passion as wide as this community lets me. I dream of tails wagging and goofy tongues out as far as the eye can see! This is my number 2 priority after my own pack of critters. I intentionally schedule in plenty of time so yours are taken care of and tongue-out-happy! I try to give trauma informed care, which means I cater the visit to your pets needs and what they're comfortable with, so that we can build a trusting relationship. After that, improvement and success is a piece of cake.
“Sean did a great job with our two dogs (Golden Retriever & Border Collie mix) over the Thanksgiving holiday. We received regular updates and pics, and came home to find our house exactly as we left it. We will definitely re-book with Sean again!”

About: Hi! I’m Sarah, an experienced, reliable pet caregiver and lifelong animal lover. My son and I recently said goodbye to our beloved dog of 12 years, and while we aren’t quite ready to welcome a new pet of our own, we deeply enjoy caring for animals and making them feel safe, loved, and at home. I have over 15 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I take a thoughtful, individualized approach—meeting each dog where they are and offering just-right levels of activity, enrichment, and rest based on their needs, age, and energy. Our home is calm, clean, and well-supervised. We live near the levee and regularly walk the nearby forested river trails, which many dogs love for gentle exercise, fresh air, and enrichment. I prioritize safety, routines, clear communication, and plenty of affection, including snuggles and relaxed indoor downtime. My 9-year-old son is kind, gentle, and very respectful with animals, and he especially loves quiet companionship and playtime (always supervised). Your pet will be treated like a valued family member, and you can expect dependable care, thoughtful attention, and regular updates while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows plenty of time for walks, play, and check-ins, including afternoons, evenings, and weekends, to match your pet’s routine. Pets are always supervised in a calm, clean home. I follow routines, respect boundaries, involve my gentle, animal-savvy child appropriately, and communicate clearly with owners.
“Emily watched our babies for a week and I think they were sad to see her go! She did an amazing job - even our kitty who likes no one but us loved her! She went above and beyond in my opinion!!”

“Carson did a wonderful job house sitting with our German Shepherd for 1 week. She sent pictures and updates. We were quite comfortable leaving our boy, Jax, in her care. I would not hesitate using Carson again in the future.”

About: I have taken care of dogs within my family, friends of the family. I take daily walks with all 3 of mine each day, make sure to keep track of their health. I enjoy taking dogs places like the park, I have realized a dogs best therapy is being outdoors where they truly can be themselves. As of the moment, I am a student and don't have a job so nothing will get in the way, I have an open schedule. In my home I have a fenced in yard, I make sure that they are on a schedule, fed certain times a day, with certain measurements, make sure that they have what they need at all times. Whether that be taking them for a walk, having a good belly rub, or even getting them their favorite treat!
“Brianna was so great and loving to our dogs while we were away. She stayed in constant contact and sent lots of pictures to make sure we didn’t miss our little dorks too much. We arrived home to two happy and healthy dogs and a wonderful note from Brianna thanking US when it’s definitely the other way around! We will not hesitate to book her again for house/dog sitting in the future!”
About: **About me** I have always wanted to move to the country and care for animals all my life. My husband (Patrick) and I currently have three rescue dogs and 5 outdoor rescue cats. We also have two horses Valentine and Peanut that love to walk the trails with us. My passion is caring for animals and I have had years of experience raising all breeds and types of pets! We live in a small home built on 31 beautiful acres. We have a fully fenced large back yard and several wooded trails, a beautiful pond in the front yard and lots of room to play! Your pets will love coming here and it will truly be like they are on vacation. I have 4 grand pups that come to the farm regularly and they get very excited to visit. **About my home/services** I will provide a loving and fun environment for all pets that come here to stay! They will be safe and will love every minute of their stay! **About my neighborhood** We live on 31 acres with only 1 neighbor close. We have a fully fenced back yard and a pond to fetching toys if your pet loves to swim. We have wooded trails that we often take walks on and we will have lots of exercise or just hanging out in the back yard.
“Our dogs seemed so happy bin the pictures and they sent daily pictures of all 4 of our fur babies! They came a day early to meet our dogs so they would be more familiar to them. Definitely recommend!!”
