“Linda went above and beyond caring for our yorkie boy. It was his first time with a sitter and us away. He was well cared for, happy and content. She kept us in the loop with helpful updates on how he was doing which kept our stress down while we were away. Will definitely use Linda again! You can tell when someone is caring and has true empathy for you and your four legged family member, and Linda does indeed!”

About: Hi there! I’m a dependable, trustworthy dog lover who’s had pups by my side my whole life. I truly enjoy connecting with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—and I understand how important it is to care for them like family. I’m a larger guy, so if your dog is a little shy around big humans, just let me know—I always aim to make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable. I’m also EMT-trained with pet resuscitation experience, so you can rest easy knowing your furry friend is in capable, caring hands. When I’m looking after your dog, your home and property will be treated with the utmost respect and care. I pride myself on clear, friendly communication and will always work closely with you to meet your specific needs and requests. Whether it’s a special routine, extra playtime, or just a quick update while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. You can count on me to show up, love your pup, and keep things safe and sound. I have a pretty flexible work schedule that allows me to be available throughout the day, and my living situation allows me to be flexible where I spend nights. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do everything I can to make sure their pets feel safe, relaxed, and right at home—because they are home. I follow your routine closely, from feeding and walks to playtime and quiet time, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible while you’re away. I also take the time to bond with each dog, paying close attention to their personality, energy level, and emotional needs. Whether they love belly rubs, fetch in the yard, or just quiet companionship, I meet them where they are. Staying in your home allows me to give your pet the one-on-one attention they deserve while also keeping your home secure and well cared for. You’ll come back to a happy dog and a home just the way you left it.
“We were thrilled using Amber for house and fur baby sitting. Amber is very personable and we love that she is a vet tech by day and was wonderful taking care of our girls! Ty!”
About: I have years of experience watching pets. I am passionate when it comes to caring for animals. I currently have a hybrid full time job that allows me to work from home whenever I please.. so I can be with your fur baby full time or part time. whatever he/she needs! I currently work a full time job sunday-thursday. I work at home on the weekends and choose my own hours, during the week I work at 8 am and I am off by 5:00 with an hour lunch for potty breaks if needed. I have a fenced yard and a husky if they need a play date! water and food & treats always available. animals are allowed to make themselves home here & be comfy however they choose! I also love to go on walks! in my clients home it will be same expectation besides my husky being present. I follow care and guidelines per clients home as everyone has their own rules and preferences when it comes to their animals. whatever the case is I will always respect, love, care for animals and their home as if it were mine, and insure every expectation is met!
“Thankyou sooo much again harbor loved you! Nisa was able to provide us so much comfort in leaving our brand new adopted pup for the day !! Thankyou so much for coming and spending time with her and sending us pics throughout the day :)”
About: Hi there! I’m Taylor! I am a full time social worker, working with foster care kiddos & kiddos with juvenile offense charges. I’m passionate about community care, you can usually find me reading about how to implement it or volunteering with organizations here in Wichita that already are! Outside of that, I like to hang out with my cats and help folks take care of their animals while they’re out experiencing life! I have over five years of pet care experience, plus pets of my own, so you can rest assured that your babes are safe with me. Luckily, I have a pretty flexible work schedule so I can be working from home and spending time with your pets, or dropping in as needed. I know pet care can be expensive so I try to work with you on rates. Just message me to set up a meeting time! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I work part-time and attend school full-time, stopping by the house to hang out and play with animals or take them for a walk wouldn’t be any conflict in those times as they are super flexible. My job understands that dog sitting and walking are important to me and will help me flip some shifts around to make it happen, if needed! I don’t have a fenced in yard but I take my dogs to a fenced in dog park everyday so they have plenty time to run around and socialize. I’m sure to take extra snacks and water when we go, sometimes they get really tired and those always help. If it’s way too cold to go to the park, because one of them refuses to go out without her coat and boots in that weather, I will make sure to walk them until they let me know they’re done and then we head home to warm up and spend time together.
“Jeanette took great care of my babies. She updated me with text and photos! She is great!”
About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life, giving me hands-on experience in all aspects of pet care, including walking, feeding, bathing, and litter box maintenance. I’ve also been a pet sitter and dog walked for family and friends numerous times, providing reliability and attention to each pet’s unique needs. My experience includes caring for pets of different ages, from puppies to senior pets requiring extra patience and care. I am currently a full-time college student but am not currently employed so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet sitting. I’m available in the afternoons and evenings during the week and throughout the weekends to provide attentive care for your pets. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or just spending quality time, I can adjust to meet your pet’s needs. Although my residence is not available for pet services, I am committed to providing my services in the client's home, following any instructions or routines and meeting the specific needs of the home. I prioritize the safety and well-being of each pet and maintain open communication with owners to keep them updated and reassured while they’re away.
“Ingrid was awesome. She took great care of our fur babies and provided numerous updates while we were gone. We would definitely use Ingrid again.”
“Jessie was amazing! She came through at the very last minute to house sit with my dogs and cats. She met them the day before and they did great for her. She sent lots of updates with pictures each day and I wasn’t worried at all. I will definitely use Jessie again when I need someone I trust to watch my dogs.”
About: I currently have 4 dogs living with me at my parents house that I have always taken responsibility to care for! I have taken care of my own dogs since I was 12, and I have always been available to dog sit for friends and family. I have volunteer experience walking dogs since I was 14. In January of this year, I started working at a local rescue. and that has given me experience working with dogs of all temperaments, including some doggies with extra challenges. I have such a passion for doggies and I absolutely love hanging out with them and keeping them safe :) I am currently working part time at a humane society as well as picking up shifts at a local rescue, but this still leaves me with plenty of time in the day to care for your babies and help with my own at home :) I am available anytime after 2pm Tuesday-Saturday, and all day on Sundays! I am unavailable on Mondays. I will be providing care in the clients home according to the client's guidelines. I will treat your home with respect and be sure to provide whatever care you would like for your dog, including walks, feeding, letting out, playtime, giving medications, etc. I may spoil your dog and take them out for a pup cup :)
“Ellen does such a great job taking care of our pets! This is the second time she has watched our dog and even though he is so anxiety ridden and sometimes more high maintenance, I know he’s in such great hands. Our house is well taken care of as well. It’s awesome to know that when we leave everything is well taken care of.”
“Miranda was great with our very smart and needyJack Russel. This was our first time leaving him with a stranger so her regular updates throughout the weekend really helped. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I am a mom of 2 little boys. I have experience with animals who have seizures, medications and high anxiety, along with every age of animal. I am a manager at Cocoa Dolce in Bradley Fair, so I am completely free in the down time outside of the day to day hours between 5-8 hours a day during the week time. I haven’t had issues with any clients and the work schedule clashing. I am definitely here for any requests and safety measures to ensure you are comfortable with the care you are getting for your fur babies. Pets are like our children at home.

17. nicole h.
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Nicole! She has been an absolute blessing for my Jack Russell terrier, Savvy. Nicole’s love and care for dogs are evident in everything she does. She’s incredibly nurturing with her own four dogs, Dexter, Dasher, Midnight, and Bruno, and extends that same care to my Savvy. Nicole goes above and beyond and even makes homemade treats for her dogs. She never fails to impress me with her dedication and responsibility. I always feel at ease knowing that Savvy is in her capable hands. She even works and volunteers at the shelter in her free time! If you’re looking for someone who will treat your fur baby like their own, Nicole is the perfect choice!”
