About: I have been taking care of my own pets for 10 years now. I started making money off of pet sitting for about 5 years now. I have had several clients who have used me repeatedly. I create meaningful bonds with the animals I take care of and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m also a wonderful communicator who loves sending photos of your furry friend! I’m a full time student at WSU, but my schedule is flexible enough to where I can spend meaningful hours with your pet! I do not mind commuting back and forth. I unfortunately do not take pets to my house since I live in a dorm. Although, it will be no problem for me to commute back and forth.
“My big dog can be a little temperamental with new people but he took to Kylie right away. She knew exactly how to greet and flow with him, her background as a vet tech is also a solid plus. Very professional, very nice.”

“Anna has been consistent and reliable, as well as flexible with my dynamic schedule. She’s also been great with my little pup, who is still leash training and requires patience. Strongly recommend!”

About: I grew up taking care of indoor/outdoor cats, and outdoor hunting dogs. I have 3 cats of my own currently and often sit for family and friends’ pets. I am currently in between jobs, so my availability is open to care for your pet. I am happy to do weekends, and can stay overnight if needed. Pet care will need to happen in your home, as my home is not suitable for boarding. I am comfortable with walking and crating and I am respectful while in someone else’s home.

“Taylor is the best!! Has taken care of our pup multiple times and always goes above and beyond. Great with communication. Always leaves pics and an update, she’s so good”

About: Hi! My name is Katie and I have been around animals my entire life. Growing up, we always had cats in the house and when I was 12, I got my first dog. When I was little, I ran a small pet sitting service in my neighborhood and had so much fun taking care of dogs and cats of all sizes. I recently moved to Wichita to attend Wichita State University but I try to visit my furbabies at home as much as possible. My roommate, Jimme, and I love animals and spend as much time with them as we can, whether it's visiting pets we know, spending an afternoon in pet shops, or volunteering for various animal organizations. We are both active people and love going on long walks through our neighborhood. I am a very responsible, attentive sitter and treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. One of my favorite things to do when caring for a pet is to take lots of pictures! You can be sure that I will keep you updated on all the activities we do so you never have to worry about your pet while you are away. You can expect your dog to be spoiled with treats, cuddles, and lots of playtime while visiting! I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I often work remotely here in Wichita, so I am available to care for your pet all day! I am extremely flexible and can usually modify repeat bookings as requested. One of the first things I like to do with the pets in my care is gain their trust by feeding and playing with them. Then, we go on walks around the neighborhood to get some exercise and explore. Dogs are usually ready for a treat and a nap when we get back home so I let them relax before we do it all again!
“Jennifer was an excellent dog walker for our beloved husky, Milo. She showed up on time, walked him the agreed amount of time, and sent us report cards and photos of her walks. I would not hesitate to hire her again and highly recommend her services.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with an orange tabby cat who taught me the basics of daily pet care from a young age. In high school, my family adopted a snorkie, and I’ve helped care for him for the past 12 years—everything from daily walks and playtime to grooming and giving medications. I’ve also had my own cat for the past seven years, and through his renal issues I’ve become very familiar with the early signs of urinary blockages, bladder stones, and the importance of special diet management. Because of this, I’m extremely attentive to subtle behavior changes and comfortable supporting pets with chronic or sensitive medical needs. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I am a medical student who spends several hours a day studying, making my schedule perfect for house sitting and using study breaks to take dogs on walks. I have class every week day from 8-12 so I can do anytime after that. Unfortunately, I am unable to do Thursdays due to long lecture and lab times. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like my own. I’m really big on keeping things safe, calm, and consistent so your pet can settle in and feel comfortable. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and any little changes—especially since I’m used to managing my own cat’s medical needs. I’m super reliable and I always follow instructions exactly how you give them. You’ll get plenty of updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Whether it’s sticking to a schedule, handling special diets, or just giving them extra love and attention, I make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well-cared for the entire time.
About: What sets me apart is my attentiveness and calm, patient approach with animals of all ages. I’m experienced with puppies who need structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who require extra care, gentleness, and routine support. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring behavior changes, and maintaining a clean, safe environment. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize both their physical comfort and emotional well-being. Due to my abundance of free time at this stage of my life, I have all the time and resources to devote to my passions which include animals. I meticulously follow directions left by pet parents in order to account for not only the pet in my care’s health and well-being, but also their feelings and happiness. I show them the amount of care I would expect my beloved two cats would receive, but we all care for our pets in different ways. Sometimes they have out of the ordinary requests that I am delighted to oblige.
About: I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog lover with a calm home environment, perfect for pups who are friendly, well-mannered, and crate-trained. I also have a resident dog and cat, so I prefer guests who are respectful of other dogs’ space and social cues. I enjoy going for walks and providing enrichment, but I’m best suited for dogs who are leash-trained and not overly high energy. Please feel free to message me first so we can see if it’s a good fit! I work full time as a middle school teacher, so I have a very caring heart. I’m available after 3pm most days and anytime on the weekends and during summer (May 25th-August1st). I love walking my dogs and would love to walk yours too. I can work on leash training with your dog, as well as the basics. I can drop in and visit your dog or cat, walk them, feed them, and keep them company for a little while. I make sure that animals are never left unsupervised. If I’m not home, animals will be kept separate. Anything you need when it comes to walks and visits, I’m your gal!
About: Ive had dogs all my life and my friends often have pets i love to visit. I used to work for a manufacturing company that sells veterinary products and i would attend trade shows in the U.S., Mexico, and Canda. I am currently available anytime before 7am and after 4pm. You can book me for check ins, house sitting, pet sitting, dog walks, restroom visits, or to run an errand for your pet. I usually like to visit a local dog park for your dog to exercise and sometimes even a lake if your pet likes to swim.
About: I had from dogs to snakes to take care of for the past Decade. I love animals! I have more experience taking care of dogs compared to any other pet. I took a dog walking class because I started walking my grandma's neighborhood dogs after a few seen me walking my grandma's dog. I take care of dogs, puppies, kittens and cats. My dream is to own a ranch with an assortment of beautiful animals and own acres of land! I love meeting new little souls and I am very good with setting a comfortable environment. I work from home, so I am able to bring my work with me wherever I go and it makes it easier to take care of pets. I have taken care of a few dogs and cats with my full time job and it works out perfectly. I’ve had big dogs (boxer mastiff mix) to small dogs (chihuahua) and same with cats, ages range the same as well. Thank you for trusting me with your fur baby! I make sure the pets are fed and hydrated with the heat Kansas has to offer. I did Rover in Las Vegas, so the heat and being outside does not bother me. Outdoor time is important and at least given 3 times a day. Feeding routine, grooming routine, medication needs etc. I love setting a comfortable environment for the cute animals and making sure I am patient for some cases where the pet is a shy one. In case they get dirty from anything, get them cleaned up and not sitting in filth. Puppies and kittens need a ton of playing time, so making sure that is incorporated. Showing love to the pet is the most important. Treating these pets like your own! Thank you for trusting me with your fur baby!
About: I have spent my whole life surrounded by cats and dogs, both my own and others and have an intense passion for caring for animals the right way! I have basic care skills, but can ensure diligence, active and engaging time spent with your animals, timely care, and commitment to following care guidelines to a T. I know what it’s like to leave your animals in the care of someone else. My personal pet sitters are accustomed to abnormally and intensely detailed printed guidelines with care instructions for my animals, so regardless of how detailed your care instructions are, I have the aptitude to follow them in their entirety plus more to the best of my abilities! I am a medical student in my first year, so I do have the ability to have more control of my schedule. I will continually update my time availability to be accurate weekly. I will not commit something that I cannot guarantee availability for! I will only be able to give care in your home due to living in an apartment complex and having animals of my own. But in caring for my own animals, I am quite neurotic in how detailed and specifically I care for them. I make sure my animals have daily mental and exercise stimulation through playing with toys, walking, and engagement with me and each other. I am adamant about giving my animals affection, and provide them meals in a timely and measured way. I brush all of my animals teeth daily, walk my dogs daily, and clean my cats litter box at least twice a day. I am very attuned to subtleties and changes in my animals behavior to ensure that they are in good health! I want to give my animals the best life and care possible just as I will do for your animals!
