2. Paiten G.
“Paiten is a caring and responsible care giver. My dogs tend to be skittish with new people and she was very patient when working to gain trust and ease into watching and walking them for me. She also has a wonderful and playful personality which works wonders with my fur babies. I would not hesitate having her care for them again!”

4. Megan T.
“Megan did a great job with my pup, Louie! He liked her from the minute that she walked in for the meet and greet and that's not always easy! Megan was incredibly easy to work with and super responsive. She was even easy going when the key I gave her gave her a hard time. I really appreciated that she kept in touch throughout her time with Louie too. Great experience!”
5. Hannah T.
“Hannah is a great dog sitter. I trust her with with all of my pets. She is patient and takes her time to get to know the dog and gives them the attention they are seeking or space if they are shy. We have adopted some dogs with unknown backgrounds that just needed to feel safe. Hannah understand the unique needs and does her best to give the ultimate care. I would hire her anytime!”
6. Matthew S.
About: I'm a great dog sitter, big reason is I don't charge an arm or a leg to watch your pet, I'm 5’7 and dark brown hair with blue eyes, you will always see me with a smile, I bring a backpack full of toys and treats for your pet, I will engage in physical activity with your pet unless your pet is a car I will try my best to engage with your cat, but I'm excellent with dogs you can call or text me about availability because I do go to college but my classes end at noon just an FYI. I'm very compassionate when it comes to animals because animals are my world and I love spending time with animals if you have any questions at all feel free to call or text me anytime. I may not have medical experience but I do have a person that I can call if I need any help when it comes to medical issues.
7. Shania D.
“We were very pleased with Shania’s drop in visit and excellent care for our two Australian Shepherds and our elder, blind Whoodle. Shania’s background in animal care, her timeliness, excellent communication skills and punctual follow through gave us worry free confidence for our time away. We enthusiastically recommend Shania for in-home pet sitting!”
8. Shawna .
“I’ve known Shawna for more than 25 years. In that time she’s always had healthy, well behaved, friendly and happy dogs. She’s a true dog lover...and she taught me to be a dog lover too!”
9. Amber Z.
About: Hello! My name is Amber and I am a current medical student at KCU. I love all animals, especially dogs! I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have one of my own in addition to a recent cat addition. In addition to my own animals, I have had ample experience caring for family and friends dogs and cats. I also have volunteered at my home town’s local humane society as a dog walker and kennel cleaner for over two years and am a current volunteer at Joplin’s local shelter. I’m a very responsible, experienced pet caregiver and am comfortable around all sizes and temperaments! I look forward to meeting your furry friends and giving them lots of attention while you’re away! As a medical student, I spend a lot of my time studying in my apartment or on campus. I’d love to take some study breaks checking in on your pets or better yet spend my studying hours hanging out with them! I am able to provide overnight stays, day visits, feedings, and walks to your dogs and/or cats. I will be unable to care for them in my own apartment.
10. Reanna & Nicholas T.
“I’m so thankful for Reanna and Nicholas! They really went above and beyond to take care of our senior dog while we were traveling. You can tell they have a genuine love for animals and will do what needs to be done to make sure the animal is comfortable and well taken care of. Highly recommend their care!!”
11. Lana C.
“Lana watched my dog Bear for 3 days. She took such amazing care of him. He seemed happy and excited when I watched her interact with him and he usually isn’t fond of anyone that me. She said they went on many walks and he seemed super well taken care of. I highly recommend.”

About: I love animals and I am going to school to be a veterinarian. I have an extremely flexible schedule and am willing to go above and beyond for your furry friends. I have taken care of dogs for seven years now in multiple different ways. I have taken care of dogs with medical issues and I have even taken care of newborn puppies. I feel like I have great experience to be able to do this job to a great capacity. I will walk your dogs and make homemade treats for them. I will also take them to the dog park so that they can get exercise. I will make sure they feel loved while I am with them and will want me to come back. I work a salary job where I can make my own schedule so I am able to be with your animals anytime needed throughout the day/evening. I live in an apartment that I am in most of the day. I take my dog on walks 3 times a day as well as the dog park on a regular basis. I can provide any care that is needed for your fur babies. I work a very flexible job and can leave when needed to care for your animals. I can crate if needed, I also have a large field near my apartment to take the animals on walks. I also love taking animals to the dog park.
