“Annicka, is a Rockstar! She was always in communication with me and She was great with both rocky and molly. Would definitely recommend her hands down”

About: I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love caring for animals. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs—whether that’s playtime, quiet companionship, or extra attention. You can count on me to treat your pet like family and keep you updated so you always feel at ease. I take care of my three cats morning and night, feeding them three times a day with fresh water at every meal. This routine has taught me the importance of consistency, attention, and creating a calm environment for pets. I’m experienced in providing loving care, monitoring their needs closely, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. I no longer have my dog, but I am more than comfortable with dogs as well! When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their regular routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, exercise, or medication—and give each pet plenty of attention and affection. I make sure their environment stays clean and safe, and I provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Colleen was fantastic! Our dogs loved her and were very well cared for.”

About: Animals have always had an extremely special place in my heart. Ever since I was a kid I’ve helped care for my family’s own pets: feeding them, caring for their health, giving baths, taking them outside and on walks, and pretty much anything else having a pet entails. I also am in the process of beginning volunteering with the cats and dogs at Lawrence Humane Society! I am a full-time student, but I am available whenever I am not busy with classes. I also have a few volunteering shifts throughout each week that I need to work around, and a job (that I will be done with next month). I provide them with food and water, clean up their litter, play with them, take the dogs on walks, and show all the animals lots of love! I am also flexible and open to doing whatever I am able to.

“Ashlend was awesome! I found her very last minute due to some last minute plans. Even though she already had other dogs she was taking care of she made it work. She made sure to come meet everyone ahead of time and sent sweet pictures. When we got home it was like we never left because I think everyone was so comfortable with Ashlend here. Highly recommend!”

“Leslie did amazing! She was super communicative throughout the entire process, and did an amazing job juggling my family's 3 dogs, including my older girl who needed meds. We could tell that all of the pups were very happy and well taken care of when we arrived home. 10/10 would recommend booking her!”

“Maiya was absolutely wonderful with our sassy little bengal cat! We booked her for house-sitting and felt completely at ease while we were away. She was responsible, trustworthy, and attentive—not only did she take excellent care of our cat, but she also looked after our home with great care. We truly appreciated her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”

About: I’ve always had a dog in my home since I was born and have always been a big animal lover! I’ve always had a dog bestfriend in my life and I love making new fur baby friends. I’m a mostly stay at home mom looking to bring in some more income, so hoping to make pet care a part of my routine pretty often! I wish I had the space to bring your fur baby into my own home but sadly I don’t. But, I will treat your fur baby and your home with the love and care as if they were my own!

“My husband and I needed to go out of town for my father in laws celebration of life so we needed someone trustworthy and that had experience to house sit and take care of our fur babies! Brenna was a dream to work with! She was very communicative and with our chihuahua being a finicky eater, she took my suggestions and got him to eat! Even the cats that hide from everyone else, loves Brenna. She was even able to keep our plants alive too 😊 we have multiple cats & dogs and daily tasks for her to complete and she did wonderful. Having her at the house, took a ton of pressure off of us so we could be with family and be present with the things we needed to accomplish. Highly recommend Brenna to be apart of your family as well!”

“Vivian was amazing! I lost my phone during my trip and could not connect with her - she stayed and checked in on my dogs while we were out of communications - thank you to the for the exceptional service with taking care of my fur babies and thank you for your understanding with me losing my phone!”

If your dog needs to be put in a crate, I will safely and calmly insert and release the dog from their crate! The dog will be played with safely!
