“We are so lucky to have Hannah as our walker! She goes above and beyond, as in today. Stella needed a new harness but I am on crutches, so Hannah volunteered to meet us to shop for a new one. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without her!”
About: I love all pets, but I have a particular affinity for special needs pets. When my own pup was diagnosed with Degenerative Myelopathy, I dedicated myself to giving him the best care, and ultimately, the best life possible. Pets are beloved members of the family and I promise to love and care for your pets as if they are my own. I welcome all shapes, sizes, and abilities. I provide boarding and house sitting services. Whichever you choose, please know that your pet will be given the best care and so much love! I find that pets are generally more comfortable in their own space. I am happy to visit yours! My schedule is quite flexible and I am open to long-term set schedules or the occasional drop-in. I try my best to keep my calendar updated. I currently do not offer boarding services, however, you can be sure that both your home and your beloved pet will be safe with me.
About: As a psychology graduate student, I spend my days paying close attention to behavior and I bring the same attentive to your pets. I’m patient with shy or anxious animals and calm in unexpected situations. My schedule is structured by flexible. I have set class, teaching, and research hours each week which makes it easy to plan reliable visits around them. I’m available weekday mornings and evenings and am flexible for midday walks. I treat your home and your pet’s routine exactly as you’d want. Before the first booking, I’ll do a meet and greet to learn your pet’s schedule, feeding amounts, medications and favorite spots. During visits I follow your instructions closely. I keep your home tidy, lock up carefully, and leave everything the way I found it.
About: My son and I regularly help friends and neighbors by walking their dogs, cats and caring for pets while they are away. We provide reliable, family-based care and treat every pet like our own. We follow routines closely, give pets plenty of attention and exercise, and keep owners updated for peace of mind. We’re comfortable with both energetic dogs and calmer pets, and always focus on safety, consistency, and genuine care. We’re primarily available on weekends when my son and I can fully focus on pet care. Weekday availability is limited due to school and work. Safety and trust are our top priorities. We follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, exercise, and any specific instructions, to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In our home, pets are supervised at all times and introduced carefully since we have a pet. In clients’ homes, we respect their space and ensure pets are secure, safe, and well cared for.
About: Hi! I’m Sarah! I’m 18 and have always loved animals. I have 4 dogs and a cat of my own, and I work at a dog daycare in Lawrence, so I spend a lot of my time around animals! My boyfriend Cameron is 20 and helps me with pet sitting! He grew up with cats and helped me train our German Shepherd from a puppy, so he has plenty of experience with animals, too. I just like to be upfront that he may come with me for visits or overnight stays and may help with visits on his own sometimes. We both love animals and really enjoy getting to meet and care for everyone’s pets! I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your animals, and we’ll always do our best to make sure they’re happy and taken care of while you’re away!!! I work Tuesday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, but I’m available before work, during my breaks, and after work. So I am able to check your pets every 4-5 hours. I also have full availability on weekends and Mondays. I do my best to be flexible I’m also willing to take days off work to meet your pet’s needs !! When I’m caring for your pet in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. Whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or plenty of cuddles.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
