About: I'm not certified to train animals, but I'm happy to continue working on any training already in progress, and I'm able and capable to give meds as needed. I am done with school and I work part time so my schedule is flexible and allows me to take care of your animals when needed. I help give my own dog her required nightly meds. Previously, I've house sat with animals and let them out to go to the bathroom as needed and fed them as instructed.

About: Hey there! I'm Morgan, your go to dog sitter and walker! I’m a passionate animal lover who grew up with a variety of pets and have tons of experience caring for furry friends. I’ve recently graduated from the University of Kansas with a degree in design with a minor in strategic communications so you know I bring creativity and care to everything I do. From hiking trails to farmers markets, I’m all about adventure and I’d love to bring that spirit to your dog’s day. My home is a haven for pups—my own two dogs, Luna and Moose, are super friendly, fully vaccinated and ready to make new friends. Luna’s a bit of a puller and Moose is an energetic puppy, so I’m well-versed in handling dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I also foster dogs from the Lawrence Humane Society so if your pup is a little anxious they’ll have a calm environment ready for them. :) Don’t worry if your dog isn't a fan of others; I’ll keep them separate and ensure a stress-free environment. Our big house and fenced yard offer plenty of space for your pup to roam or chill out and if your dog likes to get a bit muddy on our adventures, I’ll make sure they get a bath and are all clean before heading home. Whether it’s exploring the trails, jogging or just hanging out in the neighborhood, I’m committed to giving your dog a fantastic time and lots of love. Plus, I’ll send you plenty of pics to keep you updated on their fun-filled day! Let’s make your dog's day as awesome as it can be! 🐾 I currently work hybrid full time. I am only in office one to two days a week the rest of the time I work from home! Happy to take your fur baby out when not working! I live in a pretty large house with a yard and my boyfriend! There’s always somebody home and ready to play or take care of your pup if I need to leave for any reason! But, your dog will be the first priority and in great hands :) !
