About: I am a third year veterinary student in KC for the summer at an internship! I have worked as a Veterinary Assistant for 6 years now and have gained experience in handling and working with all breeds and sizes of dogs, as well as cats. I have also been petsitting for family friends for 5 years and have plenty of experience making pets feels comfortable while their owner is away. I am comfortable handling any dog or cat, with anything from giving medications to your senior pup to walks and exercise for the more energetic ones! I’m currently working full-time during the week with some evening hours available. I am also typically available all day during the weekend and on most holidays. As I am currently renting, I am not able to care for pets in my own home. However, I am more than willing to travel and take care of your fur-baby in the comfort of their own home! I have been trained on how to handle all types of animals with care and respect towards them, and would feel comfortable assisting with any training you are working with them on. Most of all, I absolutely love to hang out with any animal and would be honored to care for your fur baby!

“The dogs I know were well taken care of - I got updates twice a day. A friend disengaged the garage door for the mechanism and Ben fixed it for me!!! While he didn’t have to take care of my cat he cleaned out the litter box before I came home. When Neville met Ben , Neville is not a jumper at all, but he immediately climbed in Ben’s lap to be loved on by him. And Ben was awesome and let him! I highly recommend him and will use his services in the future!!”


“Excellent communication. Great job taking care of our special need dogs while we were away. This was our first time leaving the dogs at home so we wanted to make sure they were left in good hands. So glad we went with Delaney. We will definitely go with her again. Highly recommended.”


“Ellie was a fantastic find! She did a week long home stay for us. She kept us informed with photos each day and left the house immaculate. Our dogs are use to someone always being home and she spent loads of time with them as she is able to work remotely. We will be using her again. Thank you Ellie!”


“Vanessa did a fantastic job taking care of my dog. I came home to a happy boy, a clean place, and will definitely use Vanessa in the future. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a sitter!”


“Kate is the best. We set a time and she offered to come early to make sure we had plenty of time to get to the Nugget game, she sent us pictures of our puppies. She is a real trooper to sit in our hotel room for over 5 hours entertaining and walking our babies. I highly recommend her. We have used other pet sitters in the past, and Kate was very professional, friendly and caring.”


“Kadyn did an incredible job not only watching my dog, but updating me frequently and setting my mind at ease for the first trip I've ever had to hire a sitter for. Exceptional service!”


About: Hi! My name is Lyric, and I’m super eager to start caring for your pets. I have years of experience, from working as a dog walker and sitter, for a company in my home town in Overland Park! I also have my own person experience having grown up with two German Shepherds and a senior teacup Yorkie! My job introduced me to so many different breads and personalities, giving me the knowledge to be able to customize my care around each dog based on their on their specific needs and what’s most beneficial and enjoyable for them! I’m super comfortable with all kinds of dogs—from big and energetic to small and cuddly. I personally trained all three of my dogs to shake and roll over, and I also helped care for my Yorkie during his senior years before he passed. My main goal is to make sure each dog feels loved and appreciated! Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just some company while you’re away, I bring patience, love, and genuine care to every visit. I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my family. I’m currently in nursing school and looking for a flexible job that fits around my classes and study time. Pet care is the perfect fit—not only does it work with my schedule, but spending time with dogs brings me a calming sense of comfort that helps balance the stress of school. I’ve always found that being around animals is healing, and I love how caring for them benefits both of us. Plus, I enjoy staying active, so daily walks and playtime are a bonus I genuinely look forward to. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I always aim to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow any routines or instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, preferred walking routes, or special care needs. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks, and I keep things clean and calm. I’m respectful of each home I visit and treat it with care, just like I do with your pets.

“Took great care of pongo and Bork chop, and sent lots of daily updates with photos making my first time leaving both of them while out of town much more relaxing, knowing they were in great hands!”
