“Without a doubt, the best dog caregiver & home sitter we’ve ever encountered. Jenna is outstanding! Reliable, dependable, great commutator & our dogs loved her! Would highly recommend Jenna - she’s great!”
“Isabela was great with our two dogs. We booked her for house sitting while we were away on vacation and our dogs were well taken care of. She stayed with them for long periods of time, not just quick check ins and we really appreciated that. She was also great with communication! Would definitely recommend her and plan to book her next time!”

“Brandi took such good care of our fur babies! We received frequent updates and photos that gave us such a peace of mind during our vacation. We recommend her wholeheartedly.”

“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 would love to go on walks and get cuddles from your fur baby! It can be hard trusting others with your baby but I'd love to help. I am a pre-k teacher for North Kansas City Schools so I work during the day but I am free every weekend and every weeknight. I would love to meet your pet first if possible to make a connection so they feel safe or comfortable around me. I want to make you and your pet feel as comfortable as possible.
“Daniel was fantastic! He took amazing care of both our dogs, cats, and house. It was the most stress free experience I’ve ever had on vacation. He sent daily updates and photos, tidied up the home, and followed our dog’s routine making it a seamless transition. Our rescue who struggles to be around new people warmed up to him quickly. I highly recommend Daniel! We will definitely be using him again for any future trips.”

“Emma stayed overnight with our dog and did a great job! She was patient with our unsure dog and kept us updated with photos and a video of them having a good time. She was recommended to us by a coworker and we would recommend her to anyone who needs a kind, reliable pet sitter!”
“Thanks so much for accommodating my last minute booking and taking good care of the pups while I was out of town! So nice getting pics and knowing pups are well cared for while being gone.”

“Lilia was amazing with our rescue pup, Berkley! She is super calm and kind - we could tell our Berkley already felt comfortable around her the first time she met her! She sent us many photos throughout the weekend. She was very communicative and professional. We would recommend her to any friend or family member!”

“Kara was so amazing! She followed all my instructions and gave my dogs the best care this weekend! When we got home our house was just as clean as we left it. She sent lots of picture updates also which made me happy! Would definitely use her again!!”


About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve taken care of friends, family, and neighbors’ pets since I was about 15 doing drop in visits, going on walks and much more! I currently have a dog, two cats and 4 fish. I love taking care of animals! I work at my family’s business and have pretty flexible work hours. I can leave if needed to take care of pets during the day. With a schedule there should be no problem any day of the week. I take great pride in making sure each pet is loved, safe, and well taken care of. Cats and dogs are safe under my watch and will be well loved.
About: I have had dogs all my life! I adopted a puppy year ago and it has been so much fun. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I am a travel pediatric ICU nurse and therefore I only work 3 nights a week! So I have a lot of flexibility, even on the days I work ☺️ I love to take my pup for long walks and would love to do the same with your dogs! My dog Crew is always looking to make new friends!
“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: I’ve been around animals my whole life, raising my first puppy on my family farm at 10 years old. Since then, I’ve worked professionally in a boarding facility where I supervised group play, monitored behavior, and made sure every dog stayed safe and comfortable. I also have hands-on experience in a shelter environment, working with animals of all temperaments, including shy, reactive, and high-energy. This has taught me how to read body language, build trust, and adjust care to each individual’s needs. I focus on creating calm, enriching experiences for all kinds of animals, whether that’s a structured walk, playtime, or just giving your pet the patience and attention they deserve. Please let me know if you have any questions in booking me for your next walk or stay! Caring for animals is something I intentionally build into my weekly rhythm. I am typically available Monday through Saturday and have a flexible, open schedule, so I can give pets the time and consistency they need throughout the day. I also run my own art business, which allows me to work independently and stay flexible. This means i’m able to be fully present for each visit, whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or a calm check-in for more sensitive pets. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I enter. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, boundaries, and body language so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and low-stress. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s established routine. I’m especially mindful with shy or reactive animals, giving them patience, space, and gentle consistency to build trust. My experience in boarding and shelter environments has taught me how to read behavior, prevent conflicts, and create a safe, secure environment for pets of all temperaments.
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.
