Dog Walking Sugar Creek

About: Have looked after animals from Horses, to Dogs, to cats since 15 years of age. I had neighbours in the UK who used to rely on me. And now here in the US. I started out volunteering at an animal shelter in North Wales UK, where I grew up, volunteered at an Equine Therapy centre, where I even received actual training and earnt a certificate. Pet sat for close friends and friends of friends. Have done some dog walking and now work with dogs. I do know how to administer medication if needs be. I’m comfortable looking after any age. And any size. The bigger the better. I do currently work; I work open shifts, which allows me to have more flexibility in my afternoons. I currently own a dog of my own. I would not initially leave mine or yours alone in a room together until tested in small portions. If this was able to happen. Your pet would not be alone and would have a friend whilst I work in the early hours of the morning. Other than that I am very flexible. I have no other commitments besides work. I usually get Sundays and Mondays off, so your pet is guaranteed to have two full days with myself and my own furry companion Doug. Pup cups for the win! Whilst your pet is with me in my own home, I would indeed be keeping your pet on a leash as I do not have a fenced in yard but I LOVE to walk and exercise so they would be getting lots of that as well as extra snuggles and little trips out in the car, so long as they do well with this! My parents live about 15 mins away from myself and have a large fenced in yard where I like to take my fur baby to run and chase after the ball. As long as I had permission to do so, your pet would be able to join in off leash as long as they aren’t clever enough to jump the fence. In your own home I would ask you for a detailed list of instructions. Easy to understand. I can take them for walks, cuddle with them, let them out. Depending on health needs I am comfortable with and do know how to administer medication. I also love to keep pet parents Pupdated and would love to send you pictures of your fur babies’ time whilst you’re away so you know they are safe, well and comfortable.

“Kristen provided dog walking and indoor play (when very cold) for my newly adopted Goldendoodle. I appreciated the level of communication she maintained with me and her professionalism. My dog responded very well to Kristen’s care and direction too. I had no qualms about leaving my home open to Kristen—she was very trustworthy. I would not hesitate to call on her again for assistance in the future.”

About: I was born and raised around dogs of all shapes and sizes, I’ve been around them pregnant, in heat, whilst giving birth as well as cared for puppies the first 8 weeks. I’ve had lots of family dogs into their old age so I’ve learned to be very gentle and calm. I have an undying love for animals but dogs will always hold a special place in my heart. I have a 5yo daughter and a year and 9 mo old Blue Heeler, both do great with other animals and would only be around your pets under direct supervision. I’m a full time student and stay at home mama to my 5yo girl who loves animals just as much as I do. She helps out so much with our blue heeler and loves meeting other pets. I love being outside and going for walks/runs so they will have plenty of time to stretch their legs and run with me. As well as I can be relax and laid back and just attentive, whatever fits the pups needs!

About: I’m a fur mama of 4 beautiful babies! I’ve had a dog/pets since I was a toddler. I love all animals. They’re honest, loyal and good, thru and thru. I was a professional dog bather at my part time job after my long career at Lake City Army Ammunition Plant. All animals love me, some take a second to warm up, but I love earning their trust. My main girl that passed last June I wear in an urn necklace right next to the charm with my own mother’s ashes. I have so many stickers on my truck of my babies and anything fur baby related. One says, abuse an animal, go to jail. I couldn’t agree more, unless there’s a harsher punishment available, then I choose that. Animals are my life. Anything I can do for any animal in need, I’m doing it. And doing it with love. With that, I give you my word. Pet care IS my life. At work. Definitely at home with our 5 fur babies, and if I see a baby in need, I jump at the chance to help. Pet care is an honor and it brings me so much happiness and joy in my heart. Honestly, I wait on them hand and foot, and I love it. Any need, any time, I’m on it! And nothing could make me happier. I live to love and care for them. And I do it well. It’s my gift.

“My dog fell in LOVE the 1st time he saw Kelsey. My mom even said she thought Kelsey was a great fit for Grayson. Thank you so much Kelsey!”

About: I have taken care of dogs for my entire life, we always had at least one in our care as I was growing up. When I was 13 I got my first puppy, I potty trained him, leash trained him and trained him on the basics with a few tricks. When I turned 19 I became an Animal Caretaker for a dog daycare and boarding facility and loved it! I cared for up to 20 dogs at a time, observing dog behavior for any signs of aggression, anxiety distress or medical needs. I provided personalized care for dogs who needed it including giving shots, giving pills, staying up to date on their dietary guidelines and any restrictions they required, as well as any behavioral issues to look out for. I also maintained a clean environment for the safety of the dogs and staff. While I am not a certified dog trainer, I do know approved methods of correction and redirection for dogs. I will not correct your dog's behavior unless specifically asked, and we can talk about what is best for you and your pet! I have worked with dogs of all ages from a few months old to senior dogs as well as dogs of all sizes from teacup chihuahuas to great danes! I know leaving your pet in someone else's care is scary, which is why I emphasize that your and your furball's wellbeing are my number one priority! My schedule is currently unpredictable so this will be updated weekly. Mondays- Full availability Tuesdays- Before 3:30pm and after 9pm Wednesdays- After 3:00 Thursday- Full availability Friday- Before 3:00 Saturday- Full availability Sunday- Before 10am and After 8pm Currently I live in an apartment with my two cats, they are groomed daily, the litter boxes are always clean, water fountains are always running and of course they have a clean open environment for their zoomie sessions! My motto is to leave a place better than I found it!

About: I've been around animals my whole life and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm patient, dependable, and pay close attention to the little details that matter, from following feeding schedules and exercise routines to keeping water bowls full and giving plenty of affection. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, energetic dogs, shy cats, and multi-pet households. My goal is simple: treat every pet like they're my own and give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, reliable hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be reliable and consistent for pet care. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or spending quality time with your pet, I'm happy to work around their routine. I love being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, not just a job. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions before each visit. Whether I'm in your home or taking your dog for a walk, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I'll make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime while also respecting the routines they're used to. I keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I always treat both your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. My goal is for your pets to feel comfortable, happy, and loved until you return.

I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. 🐾 I have 2 dogs and a cat that I care for daily. You let me know what needs to be done and I can do it. I can keep pets separated or I can crate an animal, if preferred. I will care for the animal however you are most comfortable with.

About: I have experience in clinic and shelter environments, especially with fearful or reactive pets. I also have experience with exotic animals and have taken care of personal pets my entire life!

With notice, I can invite animal-friendly small/medium pets into my home. For larger pets or those who don’t enjoy animal company, I can do drop-ins or walks at your home! I have my own friendly dogs and cats in my home. The small animals in my home are kept in a separate room. I have a long leash to give your pup some playtime outside, or we can take good walks on a regular leash.

About: I am an experienced house sitter, and I love helping animals feel safe and comfortable! I have a lot of energy to give to pets that need it. I work four days a week, and then have three day weekends. On the days that I work, I will spend all of the other time with the dogs I'm taking care of, and on days where I don't work, I might be out of the house for short appointments, but most of my time is spent at home. I am very detail-oriented, so I will make sure I follow instructions and schedules accurately. I respect the privacy of homeowners, and will gladly communicate with the client as much as desired.

About: I currently have 2 cats, grew up with a dog, and have experience with fostering cats and kittens. I'm currently in medical school so I don't have time for a regular job but I am definitely in need of some kind of income to help me out during this stressful period. All my attention will be on your furry children. I am currently studying for an exam so I spend most of my day doing that. I also exercise daily at the gym. All cats will be in my bedroom. It's a large space which also has my two cats. They are up to date on all their vaccines and have no known health issues. Feel free to ask and I will show you the documentation :) I take them to the vet every year and they are friendly with other cats.

About: Hi! I’m Katie, a medical student who recently moved to Kansas City. Between classes and studying, spending time with animals is one of my favorite ways to unwind and recharge. I’ve been a lifelong pet lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve had cats in my home since I was born, so I’m comfortable with everything from cuddles and playtime to litter box maintenance and administering basic care. For the past few years, I’ve also cared for a friend’s dog while he’s away for work as a pilot. Through that experience, I’ve gained consistent experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, attentive, and compassionate. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a cozy companion, or simply someone to keep their routine consistent, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! Pet care is already part of my daily life with my own cats, and I regularly care for a friend’s dog. Feeding, walks, and playtime fit easily into my routine. I am a medical student who spends most of my time studying at home or at your home watching your pets! In my home or a client’s, I keep pets on their normal routine with consistent feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of love. I make sure dogs get the walks and exercise they need, and cats get attention and comfort while staying in their safe space. My goal is to make them feel at home and cared for.

About: I love all animals as long as they have 4 legs. I will take care of your babies as you have done. I will always keep you in contact with how your babies are doing and send you pictures anytime you need them. I have a flexible available schedule. I just ask for a notice as soon as possible so that I can be available for you. I love animals I love dogs and cats. I am currently going to school which is all online this makes my schedule open. I have baby gates around my house so that if my dogs start becoming very mean towards the cats, the cats have a place to run. I always make sure to stay calm with the dogs in any situation. I personally turn music on and it's mainly calm sleepy music like Enya or sleep jazz music on YouTube.
