“Taryn was amazing and my dogs quickly felt at ease and comfortable with her. She sent many pictures throughout her stay. Thank you for taking such great care of my pups.”

“Kadyn did a wonderful job watching our two kitties and left our apartment better than she found it. She was an excellent communicator and followed all our instructions exactly. Most importantly, our cats both seemed happy and healthy all in the pictures she sent!”

“Maryn did a great job watching our kitties. She stuck to our routine with their feeding schedules and left our home exactly as we left it. She even went above and beyond with leaving food and water out for the neighborhood cats who were not included in the booking but who my husband and I look after. We will definitely be booking with Maryn again!”

“Abby is the best! Our dog and cat love her. She is an excellent communicator before and throughout the time she spent at our house. Provided us photos every day of our animals and they looked so well cared for. Left our house in immaculate condition as always. Would give her 6 gold stars if we could. Thanks Abby!!!”

“Erin is wonderful! She house and dog sat for two weeks. Trustworthy and loving to our two dogs and send photos of them every day. Outstanding communicator. Will use again and again!”

“Stacey did a fabulous watching our 2 anxious pit mixes and our cat. She sent regular updates and photos of all the pets. Our cat, Sherlock has been known to hide with pet sitters but he was sitting on her lap nightly which just shows what a great sitter she is. Definitely will be rebooking with her! Came home and the pets were happy and the house looked fabulous!”

“Bailee did an amazing job! She watched Chloe for a long weekend and not only provided great care for Chloe but great peace of mind while I was out of country. Would highly recommend”

“Thank you Melissa! We are grateful to have you and I know Truman is so happy to see you! Thanks to you, we could enjoy the day away and not worry because he was in your care!! We will reach out to you again!!”

“Emma did me a great service and booked an overnight stay with my pup very last minute when my original sitter backed out. Emma took my pup on a drive and took great care of her. She also sent updates and pictures throughout the night while I was at work, which was greatly appreciated! Would book again!”

About: Uncanny ability to bond with cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. Experienced in obedience training with positive reinforcement. I am happy to continue the training you are working on. Don't worry, I won't teach them any bad habits:) I will respect your feeding, medical, and playtime routines. I love to take pics and videos so you remain connected and at ease that your furries are safe. Should an unexpected trip to the vet be required, I will make it my priority. I keep busy as part of the gig economy, which affords me flexibility throughout the day and week. I retired from the U.S. Air Force in 2014 and continued to work for the aerospace and defense industry overseas, where I met my partner (Angie) who did a wonderful job showing me how cool the KC area is. I've worked as an instructor and as a risk management professional throughout Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma over the last several years and am looking to spend more time close to home with my girls (two Bengals - Lana and Dory) and my boy (Siberian Husky - "Pullo"). One of my girls (Dory the cat) receives oral meds and subcutaneous injections as part of her immunotherapy. Both of my girls and my boy are on raw food diets and I prepare their meals twice per day. My boy (65 lbs Siberian) traveled with me when I was driving all the way out to California, Florida, and Georgia to teach for 1-2 weeks at a time. He went on every one of my risk management assessments over the past two years. When home, I've always got a cat on my lap. When I'm not home, there are seven Mondo towers placed near windows so the girls can sun themselves throughout the day. They have a huge water fountain bowl with filtering to encourage them to hydrate more frequently. Everyone works for their food and treats by solving various food dispensing puzzles. Dog helps me train for occasional marathons. He likes tugging, chasing balls, and getting beat up by Dory.
“Lulu is awesome with our kitties. She always goes above and beyond to ensure they are happy and adjusting well while we are gone. She updates us regularly which helps to ease our minds too. She is the best!!”

“Ann was great. We had an initial meeting at my home where I showed her where everything was and explained everything. She took great care of my cat and dog. I will definitely be using her again. I’m so grateful to have met such a thoughtful and and caring person!”

About: I have been a dedicated professional house sitter and pet care provider for the last ten years, built on a lifetime of owning cats and dogs. I offer expert, compassionate care for your furry family in their own home. I have experience with adult and senior pets, including those requiring special mobility assistance or medication. Prepare for lots of snuggles—I love getting covered in fur! My schedule is completely flexible as I work remotely from home, allowing me to provide exceptional pet care at any time of day or night. Whether you need coverage while at work, for an evening out, or during a long weekend away, I can adapt to your exact scheduling needs. Your pets will receive abundant love and attention on their routine. When caring for your pets in your home, their routine is my top priority. I strictly adhere to all dietary, supplement, and medication schedules provided. Pets are always supervised, and I ensure safe play, staying outside during yard breaks. I am also happy to provide leashed walks up to two miles and will respectfully maintain all house rules and boundaries.
“Desire once again did an amazing job taking care of my pup. Communication is on point. It is so nice to go on vacation and know my pup is getting loved and cared for. I highly recommend her for taking care of your pets.”

“Lindsey did an AMAZING job! She was great at communicating and responding. She sent cute pictures almost every day. I could tell the dogs (and our chickens) had been well cared for while we were gone. She did a super job!”

“Kayla was great to work with! She met my senior dog ahead of time and was very responsive leading up to the housesit. While I was gone she gave me updates on how my dog was doing. There was one minor incident with food my dog had gotten in to that she let me know about and had taken care of. When I got back my dog was happy and my house was in pristine condition. I could not have had a better experience and highly recommend Kayla for any pet/house sitting jobs!”
“Another great service by Reed, he sends us several pictures daily of both our dogs. Keeps in touch with us and cleans up before he leaves. 5 stars all the way, already booked another set of dates with him.”
