“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 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.
“Part of me wants to keep Megean a secret because she is so fantastic, I don't want to share. However, after having her take care of our furry little kids many, many times, I can say that you really do not need to consider anyone else if you want the best. I say that with zero hesitation and a huge amount of appreciation to her and her husband for the peace of mind they give us when we are out of town. Megean...you guys are amazing.”

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.
“Marlee and Apollo became fast friends. You can tell he is elated when she comes over to check on him. She makes sure he's a happy and well-cared-for puppy. I highly recommend Marlee!”

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.
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.

“Regan is amazing! Her ability to connect with even our most skittish cat was great and she was very attentive to details. Would trust her with any of our babies. Thank you!”

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.

“Briley was a very good listener which was important to me since I've got an elderly cat. She was friendly and easy to talk to, prompt with care and I appreciated her level of communication. Thank you Briley, we will rebook for sure!”

“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!”

“She was great! She went above and beyond caring for our kitties. She was very flexible and attentive. She is our new go to sitter! We would recommend her to anyone seeking a caring sitter!”

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.
“Makes the extra effort. Extremely kind! Helped take out a snake from my home while I was gone and letting my pups out! She’s tougher than me! Been using her for awhile now and not one complaint! Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up around animals and have had my own ever since. I lived on a farm in the country and loved every minute! Now living in the city I am only around 2 pets and I can’t get another because of my apartment restrictions. Getting to dog sit or walk even them would be so fun for me! I have a cat so I am taking care of him daily. My roommate also has a dog so I get to help with her too. I have a a bunch of pet toys, food and water, bowls, and beds! The pets are allowed to be on my bed and can cuddle up in blankets. I can put my cat in my roommates room along with her dog if the pet I am caring for cannot be around other animals. I usually sit out food and water just so if they are hungry they can eat whenever and I will just refill whenever they are scheduled next.
About: I have loved animals since forever. I cannot recall a time in my adult life that I did not have a furry friend. I have a long history of animal rescue transportation and some fostering in-between transportation runs. I have been house sitting and dog watching for friends and family for several years and truly enjoy it! Unfortunately, I recently lost my sweet Lucy at the age of 14. (She is the first picture with her blue stuffie ☺️) She fought the good fight! However CHF, an enlarged heart and heavy seizure activity became too much for her aging body and the good lord came calling to help her cross on over the rainbow bridge where she can roam and run pain free again. So, I decided to offer my love of animals to others' companions instead of adopting again and went to work part time for the veterinarian that walked the walk with us. The love of an animal is unconditional and healing and within that, there is peace 💛 I currently work for a vet clinic and also as a massage therapist with full control of my schedule therefore have the ability to adjust my days as needed. I pride myself in working hard to keep your pets schedule as close to their normal routine as possible. I feel consistency is important for them when their humans are absent.
