About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 and truly enjoy caring for animals of all kinds. Back home, I have two puppies who I absolutely adore, but since moving to Kansas City for school, I miss being around pets every day. That’s why I’d love the chance to care for yours—whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. With years of experience and a genuine love for animals, I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel happy and cared for while you’re away. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 and have always loved caring for animals. I have two puppies back home that I miss dearly, and since moving to Kansas City for school, I’m excited to spend time with pets here. My program is mainly virtual, with only a few hours of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have plenty of availability to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. With years of experience and lots of love to give, I’ll treat your pets like my own. Safety is always my top priority. In your home, I follow your routines closely, make sure doors and gates are secure, and keep a close eye on your pet at all times. If I’m hosting, I provide a clean and pet-friendly space, remove hazards, and ensure constant supervision. I’m also comfortable handling leashes, crates, and any special instructions you have so your pet stays safe and happy.

Bobbie was amazing. She was on time and went above and beyond each day to make sure our sweet babies were taken care of. She was very good at communicating and we will definitely request her service again in the future! Thank you for the pictures, Bobbie!

About: I have experience with small, medium, and large dogs! As long as I can remember I have always had a dog in my life- whether it be a family pet, a farm watchdog, or a herding dog for our cattle! I love all breeds and will do my very best to provide trustworthy care for your loving pet! I will treat and love your dog just as if it were my own! I have a toy Australian Shepherd named, Wren who is 8 years old and since I didn’t think 1 dog was enough, I got another Australian Shepherd who’s name is Piper and she is 6. Piper warms up to any dog and loves to make new friends! They both would give me 5 stars⭐️ Can’t wait to watch your pets! I currently work from home 2-3 days a week. When I’m on the road or in office for work, I typically get back home around 6:00 pm but have a very flexible schedule and can be home earlier. I have a fenced in yard and my dog Piper gets along with any dog! They will have a blast playing with each other! I will love and care for your pets just as they are my own.

Marlee is fantastic! She went above and beyond in taking care of our husky, Murphy, and our two guinea pigs. She was extremely communicative, and it's clear she loved on our pets as if they were her own. We would love to have Marlee take care of our pets again, and I am definitely recommending her to my friends.

About: We have been pet owners all our lives until recently. We have experience looking after dogs and cats. We would love to fill the gap by helping you out with pet sitting needs. Your fur baby will be treated as part of our family! My husband and I work full time, some days from home. My work is just few minutes away so I am able do potty breaks and walk during lunch. Our schedules are flexible and we can adapt to your needs. We currently don't have any pets at the house. Our yard is not fenced but the neighborhood is very dog friendly with a little nature trail for walks.

Ashley took absolutely wonderful care of my clan. It out me at ease while I was out of town to know my pets were being so we'll cared for. Ashley was great at communicating. I never felt out of touch with what was going on with my pets while I was out of town. Great As usual they were very happy when I came home, but they didn't seem to be anxious or stressed. They were just their goofy, happy selves. Great experience!

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 bring 13 years of hands-on pet care experience and a lifelong passion for animal welfare. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals including dogs, cats, exotic pets, and farm animals, and I’m confident handling pets with varying temperaments, ages, and medical needs. My professional background includes working at a Pet Hotel and Resort, where I supervised playgroups and provided overnight care for both dogs and cats. I’ve also completed one year of Vet Tech training, giving me a strong foundation in animal health, behavior, and medication administration. I’ve volunteered for years with organizations such as NoCo Humane Society and Animal Friends Alliance, where I worked as a walker, enrichment volunteer, and trainer. I frequently took dogs on structured day trips to support confidence-building and behavioral enrichment. Additionally, I served as a long-term medical foster for Pima Animal Care Center, caring for pets with ongoing medical or special needs. Beyond shelters, I’ve been a horse handler through TRAK, a therapeutic ranch for children with disabilities, where I also helped care for other farm animals. I’ve consistently managed pet sitting for multiple households at once, safely and reliably caring for several dogs and cats at the same time over many years. My own dogs have been certified and/or are currently training for Canine Good Citizen (CGC), therapy, trick, and agility certifications, reflecting my commitment to positive, structured training and enrichment. I pride myself on providing reliable, compassionate, and knowledgeable care, treating every pet as if they were my own while ensuring owners feel confident and at ease eith frequent daily updates. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m currently a graduate student at the Colorado School of Mines completing my coursework online, and I’m based in Fort Collins. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around pet care needs. At home, I have a young dog and a very young puppy, so I’m already on a structured routine that includes regular feeding 3 times a day, potty breaks, training, and enrichment. Because of this, I’m reliably home at least 3 time periods a day and all night. I’m available for pet care up to three times per day for sessions lasting up to four hours each, which works well for walks, drop-ins, playtime, training reinforcement, and meals or medications times. I’m dependable, punctual, and attentive to maintaining each pet’s normal routine. Safety and trust are my top priorities in every home I care for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or my own, I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any medical or behavioral needs before care begins. I have extensive experience with young puppies, including potty training, crate training, supervision, and enforcing safe boundaries. I’m especially vigilant with pets who are known to swallow foreign objects, and I practice constant supervision, environmental checks, and proactive management to prevent accidents as I have had 2 dogs with issues eating non-edible objects. I’m also very comfortable caring for dogs recovering from surgery or illness. With my vet tech training and medical foster experience, I can confidently administer medications, monitor incision sites, restrict activity as needed, and watch closely for any signs of discomfort or complications. I follow all veterinary and owner instructions carefully and provide detailed daily updates. In clients’ homes, I respect the space as if it were my own maintaining cleanliness, following household rules, and ensuring pets feel secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. In my own home, I prioritize controlled introductions, safe separation when needed, and structured routines to ensure every pet’s safety and comfort. I use positive reinforcement, clear communication, and attentive supervision to build trust with both pets and owners, providing calm, reliable, and knowledgeable care at all times.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for 10 years now! I absolutely LOVE dogs and want anything and everything to do with them!! Not just dogs, but every animal in general. I own 2 dogs and 1 cat, one of the dogs is mine specifically so I like to take him on daily walks, play lots of fetch with him and he loves the park!! (I take my other dog to with us). As for my cat, she doesn’t do much but eat! I feed all the animals morning and night, they also go outside whenever they want to. My family exercises the dogs daily! They are very spoiled.

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.

She went above and beyond to secure my cat. We had to leave for the airport and cat would not come home. Victoria came by two extra times to look for her. Third time was the charm. Cat spent the rest out the time safely in the house.
