About: I love animals! I have been a Rover sitter for a couple of years now I’d love to take care of your fur-baby. I only take one family at a time so I can give your cat or dog my full attention and love. I have two cats and a dog. I work from home but am available 6pm and weekends to allocate all my love and attention to your animal. My children want to help me with this so I won’t be alone with your fur babies. I have a fenced yard, but will always be outside when your baby is too. I have a friendly dog. My cats are friendly too.

About: I have watched my families cats/dog when they have went out of town, go over feed and water them. Play with them. Give them medicine as prescribed. I currently work from home. So I am able to let your fur baby out for a potty break when needed. As mine always lets me know when she needs out. I do have a pet door where the pups can go out to a small fenced yard if they are used to this also. I have a small fenced yard but also a large unfenced yard to run. We are approximately 1/4 mile off the road so no worries with traffic. I am always outside with my animals if they are outside the fenced area as sometimes we like to run and play more. I can keep anyone seperate if needed and crated if needed also.

Lindsay was very accomidating. She allowed us to bring Mate by 15 minutes early. SHe graciously allowed me to introduce my skittish dog to her dogs in the fenced backyard and then bring him inside. She took note of special directions and followed them. She sent several pictures, all indicating a happy dog. Obviously Mate enjoyed his time there. I hope to use Lindsay in the future.

Robin did an amazing job with our 2 deaf Dalmatians! She helped ease the separation with all the text and photos. I’m so excited to have a home away from home for our spotted babies. We will definitely be having Aria and Dash stay with her again.

I've been surrounded by animals since I was a kid, and caring for them has always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a sweet and playful 2-year-old female German Shorthaired Pointer who would love some new furry friends to hang out with! Whether it's playtime, walks, or just some cozy company, I'm here to make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and right at home. I offer weekend boarding in my home for dogs who need a safe, fun, and loving place to stay while you're away. I work full-time during the week as a Health Inspector for Platte County, but I’m home full-time on the weekends—so your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care while staying with me. I’m committed to making every dog feel comfortable, happy, and right at home! I live on a peaceful farm with 20 acres of open space with plenty of room for your dog to run, play, and explore! My home is clean, smoke-free, and all on one level (no stairs), making it easy and comfortable for dogs of all ages and sizes. It’s a safe, spacious, and relaxing environment where your pup can feel right at home.

About: The Professional Pet Caregiver 🌟 About Me & My Experience My love for animals started at a young age. Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hedgehogs and rabbits were just a few of the different animals I grew up owning and loving. Professionally I was able to pursue my love of animals, attending NWMSU majoring in Animal Science, obtaining my Master's and have now been an animal health professional with 10+ years of experience in the veterinary industry, clinical research, and regulatory compliance. Through my experiences, I've maintained a high level of technical knowledge and clinical expertise across multiple animal species. What this means for your pet: Expert Medical Knowledge: I have professional experience caring for farm animals, poultry, dogs, cats, and small exotic animals. I'm comfortable administering medications, adhering to different diet needs and medical conditions. If your pet requires precise medication or special care, I can handle it with confidence and accuracy. 🏡 Services & Care Philosophy I am committed to treating your fur baby like family while leveraging my extensive professional background to ensure their complete health and safety. As an owner of many different animals, I understand how tough it is to leave them any period of time. Under my care, you can be sure they will be loved and pampered! With my gaggle of animals, pet care is around the clock! With two small boys, we thrive in chaos and adapting to different changes or needs. Whether you need someone to drop by to check on your animals or you would rather your animals come stay at our home, we are there for you! We have a fenced approximately 1 acre back yard that is sectioned off if your dog prefers to not interact with mine. In my younger years I fostered animals for a local rescue (MARQ in Raytown). My pack is very used to interacting with new visitors. We have 6 dogs, ranging in size from a 10lb cocker spaniel to a 100lb Great Dane, and 3 cats.

About: I'm a work from home professional with flexible hours. I have a 3 bedroom house with a large fenced in yard for puppies to run and potty (freely). I've cared for/owned dogs for over 15 years and make sure they stick to their routine of potty breaks/feeding/treat time! I don't mind coming to ones home and caring for their pets while they are away on business or enjoying some free time! I understand last minute trips and can squeeze you into my schedule. Every family member I have + most friends have dogs so I'm very familiar with how to care for and entertain pets whom I am new to! I'm so excited this is an option for extra income and I hope to meet your pups soon!
