House Sitting Platte City

“Kira was great to house sit for us - she took great care of our dog (who takes a little bit to warm up to new people) and was communicative and kept everything in great shape!”

“Briley was amazing. She was conscientious with our senior dog and coaxed him into taking his many pills. Our little rescue who doesn’t like most people let her guard down with Briley and made a new friend! She followed all our instructions to a T and we will hopefully be having her back soon!”

About: I always insure that pets are comfortable! I’ve taken care of old cats and dogs, and I when they are old like that it’s important to meet their needs first, as most of the time they need a lot of guidance and help. I am currently going into online college, so most of my day is free! I often sit down and watch TV or play video games, but I mostly enjoy writing and drawing in my free time I personally like to ask owners how there pets are in the company of others, as well as if any weather bugs them! The comfort of my pets, and owners is always my number 1 priority! I want to make sure that they are comfortable around me, and I never approach any animal until I’ve let them sniff me, it’s important that they trust me to be around them.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I started out by dog sitting for my family, and over time I’ve become the go-to person whenever someone needs reliable, loving care for their pets. I regularly dog sit my dad’s 5-year-old Husky, who often stays with me for weeks at a time. I’m comfortable with high-energy dogs and know how important daily exercise and mental stimulation are—especially for working breeds. I also care for my mom and step-dad’s two Pomskies. I’ve stayed in their home for a full week and have also hosted them at mine for extended periods. I’m familiar with routines, feeding schedules, crate use, and keeping dogs comfortable in new environments. Most recently, I watched my sister’s two mixed-breed dogs (a Bernedoodle and a Malinois/Boxer mix) for nine days in their home. They’re very active, so I built their days around walks, play, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep them happy and engaged. Because I’ve cared for multiple dogs at one time and for extended stays, I’m confident managing different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away. I work a regular schedule from 8:00–4:30 each day, but I build pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to come home on my lunch break to let animals out, check in, or take them for a quick walk. I’m also available on Saturdays after 12:30 PM, and I’m fully available all day on Sundays and Mondays. This gives me plenty of flexibility for drop-ins, walks, or hosting dogs that do well with a predictable routine. In Clients’ Homes: I respect each home and follow all instructions carefully. I stick to your dog’s daily routine, including feeding times, walks, medication, crate training, or any special needs. I keep dogs engaged through walks, play, structured downtime, and enrichment tailored to their personality. I also provide updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing. I have experience caring for high-energy breeds, multi-dog households, and long-term stays, so I’m confident adapting to whatever your pet needs to feel happy and secure.

“Alyssa did a great job with our anxious doggies! They seemed very content when we came back from our trip which is a testament to how well she did with them and how comfortable they were with her. We will definitely look to her in the future!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, patience, and commitment to providing dependable, loving care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am attentive to details, follow care instructions closely, and believe in keeping pet owners updated for peace of mind. Whether caring for an energetic puppy, providing extra attention to a senior pet, or keeping a pet company while their owner is away, I strive to treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, secure, and well cared for. Pretty available throughout the week and on weekends. Certain weekends have more availability. During the week I work full time but able to let pets out multiple times in a day. I show my pets love and care by giving them attention and taking care of their essential needs. I love to spend time around them and comfort them.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life since I was a kid. Always been a kindred spirit with them. I’ve always owned big dogs (Weimaraners), but love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am happy to be active with your dog or just cuddle up with them. My last baby had arthritis so I’m experienced with providing injections as well as oral medication administration. I work full time M-F but have flexibility in my schedule. I can adjust my schedule as needed. My weekends are completely open to spending time with your pet or taking them to a park. I have a large fenced backyard for plenty of room for running around. There is also a paved walking trail behind my house which is perfect for long walks. My furniture is dog friendly for any pups that want to cuddle up on the couch.

“Erika was so amazing. Because we are paranoid parents of a rescue pitty, finding someone to take care of our baby for two weeks was a very scary thing to do. Erika reassured us that all would be well while we were gone, and sure enough, everything at home was perfect. My husband and I were able to enjoy ourselves during our travels, stress free, knowing Sheeba was taken care of and loved every day by Erika. Erika was also so wonderful with keeping in touch, communicated with us every day, sending us pictures and updates; and Sheeba seemed so happy and well taken care of; she did not even have as much anxiety when we returned home like we thought she would. Thank you so much Erika for everything; we will definitely keep you for the future!!”

About: I bring a combination of experience, reliability, and genuine passion for pets that sets me apart from other sitters. I have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of various breeds and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pets with special needs. I tailor my approach to each pet’s individual personality, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in my care. I prioritize communication with pet owners, providing regular updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. I also bring specialized skills, such as administering medication and accommodating pets with dietary restrictions.

Whether in my own home or a clients I always keep a clean, safe, and well-maintained space. I always make sure the pets are well cared for and feel comfortable no matter where they are staying.

“Michael was wonderful! He took excellent care of Duchess over Labor Day and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. He was reliable, communicative, and attentive to her needs. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat. I would absolutely book with Michael again and highly recommend him!”

About: I am based in San Francisco and will travel to other cities in California if I can get there by public transportation. I travel by e-bike and public transport. I am an honest, reliable, trustworthy person who takes responsibility seriously. I will take great care with your beloved animals and with your home. I love animals of all kinds and have looked after cats of every temperament, many breeds of dogs as well as chickens, turkeys, goats and fish! I feed, play and groom animals according to your instructions and always love to give pets extra love and attention. Frequently, both dogs and cats who are not friendly right away, or who may be shy or reserved, come right over and cuddle with me. Many pet parents are happily surprised when they see this happen! I am an artist and a real homebody and spend most of everyday in the home with your pets. I'm constantly taking photos and videos and will send the cutest ones to the "parents." I would do the same for you! When you have an overnight sitter, your home is protected by having someone there while you are away and pets get to feel the safety and comfort of being in their own environment, reducing the stresses of transporting them, boarding them with other animals they don't know and other discomforts of being in an unknown environment. I will be in the home most of the day, every day and can play with your pups and your kitties as much as they crave! I love caring for animals and spending time with them! And while I am sitting for you, your pets' well-being is my number 1 priority! I am always keeping an eye on things and making sure everyone is healthy, safe and feeling loved. :) I make caring for your pets and your home a priority in every way! I pay attention at all times to all the animals under my care to make sure everyone is healthy, happy and feeling loved and safe! I follow your instructions regarding feeding, playing and grooming.

“Claire took care of my geriatric dogs who have eating issues. I believe that she was patient and tried any way to help them eat. She was here a full week and I came home to a clean house. We will use her again!”

About: I was always around a dog as a child and grew up knowing what they wanted, when to go outside, when to feed them and make sure they were played with. They can be unbelievable friends and I think they keep our lives actively expanding. I like to work part time and do the dog sitting when ever it's needed. It can be a random cases and I'm more welcoming to act on immediate services needed. I male sure the pet doesn't get into anything. For example: The trash can, anything chemical on the floor and make sure before they come over...if dog is being watched from my home. I make sure to clean up vacuum and make sure it's an very clean environment. Only feed them what pet owners advise me to give their dogs.

About: I have extensive experience with a wide variety of animals. Whether it’s German Shepherds or Border Collies, tabby cats or tortoiseshells, and even geckos or bearded dragons, I’m the right person to call for help. I have administered both capsules and liquid medications to dogs and cats, and I’ve successfully socialized two cats—though it took time. I've aided a Leopard gecko in shedding its skin, I’ve brushed heavy coats off large dogs. Whatever you need assistance with, I likely have the experience to help you. I run my own successful cleaning and organizational business, allowing me to be self-employed year-round. With an incredibly flexible schedule, I offer petsitting services seven days a week, including holidays! Whether you need a spotless home or care for your furry friends, I’m here to deliver reliable and exceptional service whenever you need it. I care for pets by educating myself as much as possible before taking responsibility for them on my own. I believe it is essential to meet each new pet and get comfortable with them and their owner in the home before sitting for dogs and cats. Any notes or tips you have regarding their care are crucial for their well-being, and I always appreciate your guidance on how to keep them happiest!

About: I grew up with a dog for about 10 years. We rescued her and raised her as a puppy. I have some family who have three dogs, and we help take care of them sometimes, so I know a good amount about dogs, how to walk them, etc. I have some time occasionally when after work either in the mornings or evenings and sometimes look for something to do so I figured I could fit this into my schedule and help some people out while making some money in the process. I help take them for walks, I pet them to make them happy and comfortable, I feed them and give them some water, I take them outside whenever they need to go to the bathroom, I even play with them whenever I can

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is a true passion of mine. I live with my dog and two cats, so my home is already filled with plenty of love, pet-friendly energy, and experience across both canine and feline personalities. Whether your pet loves going on long outdoor walks, playing games in the yard, or just chilling out on the couch for some belly rubs, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I live in a nice, quiet, pet-friendly area with easy access to neighborhood walking routes and dog parks for playtime. When you leave your pet with me, you can have complete peace of mind knowing they are in a safe, stable, warm, and loving environment with someone who is truly dedicated to their comfort and happiness. As a teacher, my schedule is predictable and routine, which means my evenings and weekends are wide open and completely dedicated to spending quality time with the pets in my care. Since I am home during those times, your pet will have constant companionship, structured routine, and plenty of attention when they need it most. Whether it's an evening stroll, a weekend trip to the dog park, or just relaxing on the couch together, my routine gives me plenty of dedicated focus for your furry family member. Safety, comfort, and keeping your home environment stable are my top priorities. Because I already have a dog and two cats, my preference is to care for your pets directly in their own home. Overnight in-home sitting or drop-in visits allow your furry family members to stay in their familiar, comfortable surroundings with their normal routines completely uninterrupted. I know how important a calm, safe environment is for pets, and staying in their own space eliminates the stress of introducing them to a new territory or other animals. Whenever I am on walks or taking your dog out to local trails or parks, safety remains paramount. I always keep pets securely leashed during outdoor transitions and supervise every outdoor interaction closely to ensure a safe, fun, and reliable experience.
