Just got back from my trip yesterday and Monet did a wonderful job with my Greta. She was patient and professional. She takes pet care very seriously and I’ve already booked her for my next trip.

Lulu has been wonderful! She has been walking my 10 month old puppy who was not great on a leash but seems to be doing well! My puppy cries for her when she drops her off! Lulu is very punctual and professional and has answered any questions I have. She also leaves a detailed report after each walk. I would highly recommend her!

Olga did so great with Thea once again. She's really good with anxious dogs. Helped me a lot with leash manners too. Thea enjoys her walks every time with Olga. Definitely will book with her again.

About: Been taking care of a doggo since I was six... From bathing them after a nice roll in some poop to giving them all the snuggles in the world, I have done it all. I know the true responsibility of owning and caring for a dog, as I would tend to all the needs of my lovely golden retriever. They are pure joy & love, and I know they mean the world to us owners, but they also require lots of work! So I'm here to help. With a flexible schedule and a passion for pups, let me be the one to make sure your special k9 is living their best life. Whether it's a brisk walk or a weekend of fetch, it's a happy doggy. I am working from home with a flexible schedule! Eager for a morning and evening walks and afternoon strolls around the block! Always room for pets during the day. No dogs or kids in this apartment. Safe environment for dogs with parks locally to run around or lakes to walk to. Home does have stairs.

About: I have been working with animals of all kinds since I was a teen. Between working at pet stores and kennels, plus the zoo I have at my house. I provide invaluable experience and professionalism. I work for a school, and we are out during the summer. So I have a lot of extra time on my hands for the next few months to give care to pets. In a client's home, I take care to make sure that nothing gets disturbed. In the past, I always scanned to make sure that nothing was broken or eaten. I always make sure there are no potty messes or hairballs, and I clean them up if there are. I also always make sure to message the owners if anything seems out of the usual. Updates on eating, potty, and litter habits. And of course, if they get into anything or have accidents.

About: I have always loved animals and love to meet everyone’s fur babies! I have two dogs who have anxiety. One who is reactive so I’m familiar with fur babies who may be nervous around new people. I can be patient and calm to help your baby feel more safe. I also have a cat name Georgie. I have experience with reptiles if you need any help with those. I work remotely so have more flexibility for drop ins and walking. I can also do overnight stays if required. I would love to be able to spend time with your fur babies I am willing to go to your home so your dog feels safe in their environment and able to do walks in parks or around your neighborhood.

Katie was AMAZING! There was great communication and she always showed up on time with a smile on her face. Our dog absolutely loved her. He would wait at the window for her when I would tell him that she was coming. I felt very comfortable in having her walk him and had absolutely zero worries. I will definitely be using her again in the future for all my dog walking needs.

About: Family pets have been part of most of my life. With no pets of my own now, I would like to enjoy and help other pet owners. I also enjoy walking. I am a retired RN who is looking for part time activities and income. I have elderly parents and grandchildren whom I help with but extra time for pet activities. Our yard is not fenced but larger sized and the neighborhood is mostly 5-20 acre homes. Our street is not a busy one, so walks are easy to do. I can also get to the Lees Summit doggy park in about 15 minutes.
