“Abigail and Daffy are gentle souls and joys to be around. Abigail took tucker on a hike :). And she was very compassionate about a scheduling snafu on my part (thank you!). We are excited to work with her again!”
About: I've had pets since I can remember, I have care for my puppies since they were just weeks old. I've had a pug and a husky, and now a lab mix pup. I love doggies most of all and I know they will have a great time at my place. Thia is my full time job, so I have plenty of time to play with your pup, take care of them and make them feel loved while away from home. I have a two year old doggie that can play with yours and we have a fenced backyard ready for zoomies as well as plenty of toys and treats.
About: Hello!! My name is Maisy. I have worked in various different animal related jobs for the last 5 years, I worked at a doggie daycare/boarding facility and I currently am a dog trainer. I have experience with both puppies and elderly dog as well as cats, reptiles, birds, and farm animals. I also am open to limited contact boarding for people reacting dogs and can do crate rotation for dog reactive dogs away from mine. I work in the evenings 4 days a week so I spend the mornings/afternoons out playing with the pups then they take naps in kennels while I’m at work and we play some more when I get home. I also can move my dogs kennels out of the “dog room” and your dog can just stay in there instead of a kennel if they are more comfortable that way. I have 5 dogs that are very active and friendly. I have a fenced in yard the dogs love to run around in and inside we have lots of toys and comfy places to take naps (which will be put up if there are problems). If I’m not at home or at night all dogs will be kenneled for safety.
“Nadia was absolutely amazing. She was patient with me while booking as I had some questions. She did not hesitate to video chat and help reassure me everything would be fine with my concerns. When she actually came to walk Lumi she brought her doggy too which made my puppy feel a lot better. Nadia sent pictures, updates, and any information that would make me feel like Lumi was safe and had a great time. She also helped Lumi learn new tips during his walk. You can tell Nadia has experience with dogs of many ages. I’ll definitely be using Nadia again in the future when I need help and if you’re reading this you should not hesitate to book her for your doggy needs!”
About: My pet care approach is tailored to each pet's personality and needs, ensuring a happy, healthy, and well-adjusted pet during their owner's absence. This personalized care, coupled with my dedication to maintaining a safe and nurturing environment, truly differentiates my services. I work full time 8-5. I can take care of dogs during the week if they just need to be taken out in the morning and walked in the evening. Available on the weekends. I have a large fenced in yard for daily play time. Your dog needs to get along with other dogs as I have a very friendly 8 year old havapoo Max.
“Krystal has been walking Smokey for a couple of months now. He really likes her and seems to have fun with her. She is very friendly and always on time. I’m going to hate to see her leave.”
About: I raised a well-behaved and social husky/shepherd who is able to walk/run “off leash” and follow basic commands. I grew up with cats and dogs, and routinely watch the pets of family and friends; mini aussiepoodle, shitzus, boxers, terriers, other pets of varying sizes. My availability is wide open! Finishing school, and starting healthcare job in August. Looking forward to filling summer time with reading, running/cycling, and caring for your pets while you’re at work or on vacation! I am very good at following pet owners’ wishes when it comes to caring for their pets; mental stimulation with playtime, going on walks (or runs), making sure pets are provided food and water, and locking up the home afterward.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old and have loved them as one of my children. My family and I are looking for a great opportunity to love and care for your pets. We have a fenced in backyard and we love to play and walk with dogs. My wife and I work Monday through Friday, but are available to care for pets in the evenings, but on the weekends are available to board and care for pets the entire weekend. We have a privacy fence with a big back yard with plenty of space for pets to run and play. We also have a safe and big home in a safe neighborhood for walks.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs while growing up and always had to take care of them! My neighbors always could count on me to help take care of their pets! I am able to walk, feed, bathe and with direction of course I can give your pets medicine if needed! I am in Manhattan/Topeka and I am available! I’m flexible with hours and besides working out every other day for an hour I will be available at any time! At my clients home I will not only be taking care of your pets and giving them love I can also keep the place clean and keep plants watered. At my last pet sitting job I took the dog (115 pounds) on daily walks and was able to cuddle and play with both the dog and the cat! I also stayed the night at the last gig because the dog had separation anxiety. I work well with any animals!
About: Dogs and cats have always been part of my world, and I’ve always connected with them deeper than most! Coming into adulthood, my first fur baby was “adopted” from my grandparents. Since then, I’ve adopted two fur babies, become a fur step mama and fostered several others! Caring for your pets the way I care for my own is my passion and a non-negotiable in my work. My current clients often refer to me as “Aunt Nae” when it comes to their fur babies, THAT is how much I mean to them and them to me! The only job I have is remote, and as necessary! So I am able to be around with and for your pets 24/7. One of my standard practices is to only leave your pet(s) for 4 hours or less, unless previously given the pet parents permission. Your pets will be treated as my own would, while following your house rules! If they’re allowed on furniture, I’ll snuggle them on the couch and in the bed! If they’re not, I respect that too! Used to getting up and walking at 5am? I’ll keep that routine! My goal is to maintain their “normal” while you are away and to be the best stand in “auntie” or caregiver for them.
About: With over 15 years of dedicated experience in pet care, I’ve built a strong reputation for providing loving, reliable, and knowledgeable service to animals of all kinds. Whether it’s walking dogs, caring for cats, or tending to small pets, I treat every animal as if they were my own. My genuine love for animals shines through in everything I do, ensuring their comfort, safety, and happiness at all times. I’m a teacher who is off for the summer! This opens my schedule to be available fill time all days of the week to fulfill all your pet care needs. I am able to check on animals frequently and reliable in following any special directions you may have for your fur babies. I am fairly athletic so can provide animals with the exercise and walking they may need as well.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have always loved being around animals. I have experience walking dogs and have also done overnight pet sitting for both dogs and cats from time to time. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like my own—with love, attention, and care. I’m comfortable and confident with dogs of all kinds—big or small, shy or energetic—and always prioritize their safety and happiness. I’m a student-athlete at Washburn and also work part-time, but I always make time for pet care because I truly enjoy it. My schedule is flexible around classes and work, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m great at planning ahead and will always make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any instructions carefully, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets feel loved and secure. I take time to build trust with each animal and always respect their routine and space.
About: A dog has always been in my house growing up, except when I moved to lawrence to go to school/work. I learned to take care of dogs since I could walk. My first dog was a German Shepard. I learned how to brush, clean, feed, and exercise around 6 years old and have loved dogs ever since. From middle school until now I had a side gig of watching extended family/ friends dogs for the weekends, so I have worked with all types of dogs such as pit bulls, labs, Rottweilers, shorthairs, boxers, huskies, and I also have experience with small dog breeds such as pugs, terrors, mini poodles, and chihuahuas. So don’t worry about what breed of dog you have I am open to all kinds!
About: I've been blessed to help care for pets of all kinds since I was little moving around and many relatives work in pet care so I've learned there is no animal too difficult. From energetic to needy, I am excited for the opportunity to share some love. August 18th I begin my senior semester at Washburn majoring in political science as well as be on the Debate team. I volunteer at the Topeka Rescue Mission and Loud Light's community action team in my free time. I can ensure availability on Tuesday, Thur-Sun, but it never hurts to reach out for help on Wed and Mon because I can often make it work. With my experience in house sitting I have never had a negative encounter. Not only have my clients been incredibly kind, they have also been very helpful and communicated perfectly what I need to do to care best. I am a very tidy individual but my best quality that my compassion is boundless. I am happy to take on any responsibility while an individual's pet is under my care.
