“Ron did a great job accommodating my 10 month old standard poodle who can have a lot of energy at times. The other two dogs that we're also staying for day care on this day were a great match for Link. It is obvious that Ron loves the company of dogs and I plan on having Link visit him for daycare each week! Link came home happy, well cared for, and calm.”

Molly B.

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of him. He loves hanging out with you. It's funny because we will tell him where he's going in the morning and he gets so excited!”

Lindsay B.

“Simply the best dog person on the planet”

About: Taken care of dogs for over five years. Watch neighbors and friends dogs routinely. Live around the corner from Grandview pet hospital for even more peace of mind. I work full time remotely so I’m always home. Bathroom breaks and walks will never be an issue. I am literally home 95% of the time. The other five percent is locally around KC to see family. Big back yard and have an extra room for pets including toys and mattress etc. My dog is my son without tax breaks so he sleeps in the bed with me mostly. I don’t mind if dogs are on furniture etc. If this is against your home rules, I have no problem keeping them off if needed. Food, walks, naps, play time and repeat.

About: The Whole Dog Philosophy Meets Experience I believe your dog deserves more than just a bath or a place to stay, they deserve care that nurtures their body, mind, and spirit. Whether they’re here for grooming, boarding, or a photoshoot, every moment is designed to be as joyful and stress free as possible. Grooming with Intention A grooming session should leave your dog feeling refreshed, not just looking it. That’s why I use calming techniques, like soothing lavender facials, to ease tension as I work. Our approach isn’t just about coats and nails—it’s about helping your dog feel their best, inside and out. Boarding That Feels Like Home Dogs thrive on comfort and connection, not just a place to sleep. Our boarding experience is designed to keep them engaged, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. With plenty of play, rest, and personalized attention, they’ll feel right at home. Capturing Their True Spirit A great photo isn’t just about the perfect pose, it's about capturing your dog’s unique personality. Our photography sessions are relaxed and fun, letting their true character shine through in every shot. From the moment they arrive to the moment they leave (or strike a pose), I treat every dog as a whole being who is worthy of patience, joy, and deep care. Because I don’t just groom, board, or take pictures, I celebrate the love, loyalty, and spirit of your best friend. Love isn’t one size fits all and neither is care. Let’s give your dog the restful, rechargeable stay they deserve. ✨ Less Fur, Less Funk, More Fresh!

About: I have been around animals my entire life and cared for my own dogs for nearly 20 years. I often dog sit/house sit for friends and neighbors. I have two female pugs and a male terrier mix who are part of our family. While I do have kids and they may join in on a walk, I would always be the one in charge of the leash and walking your dog. We have a large fenced in yard for plenty of play time if you board or schedule doggie daycare with us. I also have experience caring for small animals like cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, lizards, chickens, and hamsters. I can board animals in cages/enclosures in an area where other animals do not have access or provide drop in visits in your home. With specific instructions, I could accommodate most types of animals. I work part time on the weekends and my husband works full time during the week, part of which is work from home. Our home is rarely without someone here. I do have two school aged children who are gentle if a dog is staying with us and also gives me an opportunity for dog walking at your location. I will provide cute pictures from drop in visits, walks, and boarding. If your dog stays overnight with us, we would require crating only during the night. Otherwise our dogs are out and about in the main part of the house and go out into our fenced backyard often. They also enjoy frequent walks in our quiet neighborhood if desired.

“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful!! She and her sweet family went above and beyond to accommodate our very playful puppy and was sending updates frequently which I really appreciated. Our doggy is a very happy and tired boy after a full day of fun with them! Would absolutely recommend her for any dog owner looking for a sitter to look after them as if they were her own!”

Kaylin R.

“Absolutely wonderful! She made homemade dog treats for us to take home and gave him extra special care. We also got some cute pictures of him while we were away. He seemed pretty happy when we picked him up, we would definitely recommend and use again!”

Hope M.

“Derrika was great with our pup! She was very professional and I had a high degree of confidence that our little guy was well cared for and loved while we were away. I loved feeling like it brought her joy to be with him too and not just a transaction. We’ll definitely be back!”

About: I have had pets almost my whole life. Dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, reptiles and a parrot. Life stages include kitten, puppies, middle age rescues to seniors. I will care for your fur babies and home as if they were my own. Presently I am retired and available for drop in visits. You can relax knowing your home and pets are in my caring hands. Primarily, I offer kitty & small/med dog care, feeding, brushing, playing, walking, litter care. May consider larger dogs, doggie daycare and overnight stay. Depends, as I do have a very mellow happy cat and I do not want to turn her world upside down. I will want to meet your pet, listen to you, take notes on their routines and what is most important for their best care while you are away. I know from my own experience the relief I feel when I have reliable pet care. I will always be a phone call away and will text pictures of your fur baby while they are in my care.

“Our dog Rubi loved Elaine! I messaged Elaine the day before we needed care for our dog and she was so prompt to respond and ready to help us. She took great care of Rubi and sent us a picture and updates. Her backyard is perfect for dogs to run and play in and her house is calming and quiet. We will deffinetly think of Elaine again if we need care for our dog.”
