“Had no issues! He took my Cooper last minute, is affordable, and him and his wife took great care of him! He was tired and tuckered out when he got home. Had great communication anytime I messaged.”
“Nadia did a great job. She sent daily messages and pictures to ease my mind as this was the first time leaving my dog. Giving him a bath, clipping his nails and washing his bed was an unexpected plus. My dog came home seeming younger with all the play time he got with other dogs. We had a great experience.”
“Daisy stayed with Kelsey and family for 12 days. She bonded with their dogs and cats and Kelsey shared several photos of them together. Daisy is 13 and has arthritis and anxiety and takes several medications. She requires extra attention and the family went above expectations to care for her needs. I hope she can stay with them again.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy spending time caring for them. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, administering medication, and giving pets plenty of love and attention . I’m dependable, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality. I do have a full time job. I work from 7am-3pm Tuesday-Saturday and off Sundays and Mondays. My wife works from home so there will always be someone here to take care of any pet needs. I have a cozy three bedroom house with a fenced in back yard. Plenty of room for them to run around and play. I love to go on walks and enjoy the outdoors. If they have any favorite spots to go or favorite toys to play with we'll play. Or any special instructions just let me know. I only take one client at a time, if you have more than one pet that's perfectly fine. I also send text updates pictures and video's of your pets care while your away.
“Jennifer took good care of our little Alden. Had great communication and asked questions about any conditions she should be aware of. 100% comfortable leaving him in her hands.”
About: I grew up on a farm with a variety of animals. I’ve hosted many types of foster animals from the Lawrence Humane society. I am comfortable with caring for all types of animals! I work full time as a police officer. However when I am working my boyfriend is home to take care of any animals we are hosting. I am available for walks anytime Saturday, Sunday and Mondays. I can walk pets in the evenings every other day of the week. I have a fenced yard and have two crate trained, pet friendly dogs. I’ve fostered for years for the animal shelter so my dogs are familiar with new animals being in the home. When your pets are let out in the yard they will be monitored! I can and will send updates as requested!
“Cassandra was amazing!! Not only was she accommodating for our last minute boarding request but she sent pictures and checked in throughout the week. The dogs were clearly well taken care of and happy. We will absolutely book again in the future!”
“Davon was very friendly and accommodating. He made sure our girl had everything she needed to be comfortable, and took great care of her. She didn't want to leave, haha! If we're in the area again, we'll definitely choose them again for boarding or pet sitting.”
“Amanda's the best, plain and simple. She's extremely well educated and seasoned when it comes to all things dog care and dog training. She made me instantly feel comfortable and easy about leaving my puppy with her over the holiday weekend, and I could relax on my vacation knowing that my dog was in the absolute best, most well equipped hands he could be in. Sweet, smart, and you can tell she loves dogs deeply. Will use her any time the future requires.”
About: A dog has always been in my house growing up, except when I moved to lawrence to go to school/work. I learned to take care of dogs since I could walk. My first dog was a German Shepard. I learned how to brush, clean, feed, and exercise around 6 years old and have loved dogs ever since. From middle school until now I had a side gig of watching extended family/ friends dogs for the weekends, so I have worked with all types of dogs such as pit bulls, labs, Rottweilers, shorthairs, boxers, huskies, and I also have experience with small dog breeds such as pugs, terrors, mini poodles, and chihuahuas. So don’t worry about what breed of dog you have I am open to all kinds!
About: I've had pets for most of my life. I've cared for my own dogs, cats, and bunnies along with caring for my friends and families animals while they were away. I work part time hours so im pretty available to watch your animals! I work night shifts so i have all day to play with your pets! I have so much room in the house and my dog LOVES friends so being able to share my space and our love brings me joy. I would be happy to follow any routine or request you may have!
“She was great with Nora! She was super accommodating with my last minute booking and everything went smoothly. Very flexible with our pick up and drop off times which I appreciate. Would recommend her serviced!”
“Maisy did a great job with Ruby (and with me). She sent me a text with pictures of Ruby making friends on the first day and a little information about how she was doing. I got another text from Maisy the next morning to let me know how Rugy had done during the night. I really appreciated the update. This was the first day of my vacation, so I was not able to get Ruby myself, but my daughter got her. She said Ruby was glad to see her but would also have gone back to play with the other dogs if she had been allowed to : ) I will happily ask Maisy to look after her again when the need arises. Sorry this is so long in coming, but I only returned from my trip yesterday.”
“Wonderful! Our dog Eevee enjoyed her stay and felt right at home. The owners of Hugh’s and Hounds were so friendly and did everything to make her stay great! Good communication, went above and beyond! Highly recommend and will use them again if we need to board.”
“Feel absolutely blessed to have Ashley watch our dog for us when we are out of town. Our dog feels right at home at her house every time which says so much about the care Ashley gives him!”

About: I’ve always taken care of my family dogs growing up and walked neighbor dogs when needed. Have enjoyed cats in my life as an adult I’m retired and look forward to caring for animals as my second act. I love seeing happy parents and pets when they come together again. I would love to get to know you so I can learn your pet needs and loves, if cuddles or being independent. Give me a call!
“Emily was fantastic and I would definitely use her again for both pet and house sitting. She had to deal with a few difficult things that popped up with my cat and handled it like a pro. She’s also a great communicator.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and currently share my home with two dogs and two cats who are truly part of the family. I have years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ pets and homes, and I love making every animal feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their humans are away. Whether they’re snuggling on the couch or playing outside, I’m happiest when animals feel like their owners never left! I’m available at all times, and caring for your pets and home is my top priority. I never rush time with them — I make sure they get the attention, routine, and gentle care they need to feel safe and relaxed. Your animals will be treated with patience, love, and the same dedication I give my own. I treat every home with the same care and respect as my own. You can trust that your space will be kept clean, safe, and exactly as you left it. My priority is making sure your pets feel secure, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. Their safety, routine, and comfort always come first.
“Hi guys. I feel like you all did a great job. You took O' Malley for 10 days and let him do his thing and be comfortable in his own way. Thank you! The only thing I would have liked more of is communication. Both times I had to reach out to you for check ins. Good luck with your pet sitting!!!”
About: I come from a farm happy family and managed a doggy daycare, with extensive work in animal rescue. I have dealt with just about any animal you can imagine. Dogs, cats, horses, goats, guinea pigs, fish, snakes, birds, etc. Both of my pets have passed away but I have more love to give. I love animals and am just looking to fill some of my free time and earn a little extra cash. My lab has since passed due to old age in 2019 and I said goodbye to my golden in July 2025. I do work M-F and would be out of the home from roughly 7:15-5:00pm depending on your location, my office is near the state capitol. I work full time for a nonprofit in Topeka, so I am out of the house from 715am-5pm. I love going on walks and being outside before and after work! On the weekends aside from some errands I would be around. I do have the ability to work remotely as needed, so this is an option if your pet(s) need more time and attention. I take animal safety very seriously, especially after managing a doggy daycare, things can be unpredictable. I take extreme caution, and pay attention to all the signs your pet is giving me along with your requests to ensure they have a fun, safe time while in my care.
About: I am married and have two daughters and a son. They are 12, 8, and 5. I have a wonderful German Shepherd, an Alaskan Klee Kai, and a 20 pound cat named Karen. We love caring for other animals. We have a big yard so there’s plenty of room to run.! I can come to your home or board in ours. We are very active individuals. Both my husband and I are runners. Just let me know if you have anymore questions and I would be more than willing to answer them! We are very flexible with our schedules. My husband works full-time, but I drive for Uber so I can make my own schedule when needed. We try to stay as active as possible and play with pets in the home. We have a German shepherd that loves the extra play time!
About: "If you can look at a dog and not feel vicarious excitement and affection, you must be a cat." ~Terri Guillemets Love dogs (and animals in general, but dogs especially.) I have been around them my whole life and wouldn't want it any other way. I come from a large, mostly rural dwelling family, my grandma had 11 kids 2/3 of which have at least 1 or more dog(s) including my mom. I've always had my own and/or lived with roommates/friends/family, that have/had dog(s) in every house I've lived from day 1 to the present. Although I can't say I've taken care of every breed out there (doubt that many people can) I have definitely seen my fair share of mutts and purebreds alike; from Corgis to Chihuahuas, Danes to Dobermans, Lhasa Apsos to Shar Peis, and even a couple of wolves (3/4 mixes) as well as a few rodents, cats, reptiles, arachnid and birds. Big or small I love "em all, but if you forced me to pick a favorite I'd have to go with the affectionate yet intimidating Perro de Presa Canario. In short, if either by choice or necessity you find yourself in need of a caretaker for your 4-legged (or more) companion(s), know that I would be elated for the opportunity and you can be assured that their health and well-being will invariably be at the forefront of my mind in all that I do while they're in my care. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you soon. "Lots of people talk to animals.... Not very many listen, though.... That's the problem." ~Benjamin Hoff, The Tao of Pooh

“Our third review and keeps with same energy: COCOA LOVES COMING HERE! We thoroughly trust Brandin and his spouse Diane with our baby girl's overall experience. We ain't going anywhere else!”
“What a wonderful idea to have your dog vacationing at Kelsey’s home while visiting Topeka area! Dyson had a wonderful time and is now tired at our campsite. He had two dog girlfriends to run around the fenced yard with and access to the comfort of the house when it was time to chill. Thank you Kelsey and family!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was our first time using their service, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We reached out at the last minute while moving into our new place, and they were kind enough to make themselves available when we really needed the help. She, her husband, and their daughter were all extremely kind and welcoming. They took wonderful care of our dog and sent us plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which really gave us peace of mind during a very busy moving day. You could tell from the updates and photos that they genuinely cared about our dog and treated him like part of their family. We are extremely thankful for how accommodating and caring they were, especially on such short notice. We will definitely be using them again in the future! I would highly recommend their services to anyone in the Topeka, Kansas area looking for someone dependable, caring, and trustworthy to take care of their dog. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I have been a professional trainer, handler and groomer for over a decade, providing excellent care for dogs, cats and other pets of all ages, sizes and care needs. I am also available for livestock care, with over two decades of experience with horses, cattle and most other hoofstock and flocks. I offer these services full time, so no need to worry about another job conflicting with your pet’s needs while in my care. I am able to devote my schedule to them. For my in home services, I have a yard that is set up with individual fenced areas, as well as having 4.5 acres that will soon be fully fenced in! For those bigger dogs who want to be able to run and stretch their legs more.I have two of my own dogs as well, as company for those who would enjoy a playmate. We do crate all guests for bedtime and meals. This ensures everyone can eat at their own pace, and in a safe environment. Same for bedtime. While we understand that your pet may sleep loose at home, we typically have guests from multiple households. Safety is our #1 priority and we don’t want to risk an issue overnight.
“Ashley and Cody are great dog sitters. Maddie had a great stay at their home. I will definitely check their availability again next time I am in their neighborhood on business. Thank you Ashley and Cody for taking care of Maddie!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years. Experienced with puppies, seniors, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and providing safe, reliable, loving care for all pets. As a college student-athlete , I have a flexible schedule. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, allowing consistent care, walks, feeding, and quality attention. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, secure doors and leashes, maintain clean spaces, and provide updates so owners feel confident and trusted.
About: My name is Davon! I am happily married and live in Topeka, KS. I used to work at Shake A Paw in NJ as well as Pet Friends Vet Clinic in SC. My passion for animals dates way back to when I was a kid. I have had dogs, turtles, fish, and cats. Your pet will be very well taken care of! I will have fun activities set up for us to do. If there is anything you would like to know, please do message me! I have the ability to work from home at times, and my wife is a stay-at-home mom who also helps care for our furry guests. We do our best to keep pets comfortable, follow their routines, and give them plenty of attention throughout their stay! :) I live in a two-story home with my wife, Rachel, and our one-year-old daughter. Our home also has a fenced-in backyard with plenty of room for your pet to get some exercise. Rachel is also a Rover sitter, so we both have experience caring for pets through Rover and may help each other out from time to time. We have a park just down the street that’s a popular spot for people to walk their dogs, and we’re in a very pet-friendly neighborhood. We’re also happy to let pets on the furniture on a case-by-case basis. I’ll make sure your pet is taken care of to your liking, so if you could provide me with a list of your preferences for how I can best care for your pet, that would be wonderful!
About: I have done drop in visits, farm sitting, dog grooming, equine care, and taken care of many animals. I have at least 10 references. Love all the animals and will treat them with love and respect. I own a mobile dog grooming business so can make my own schedule. I have my farm animals but I have help from family to care for mine when I’m needed elsewhere. I prefer to let the animals be in their own home as they seem less stressed knowing they will be where there family will be coming back to. They have their comfortable spots and smells and doesn’t disrupt their routine but if necessary I could care for them at my home. Would walk smaller dogs on leash outside or have outdoor pens for larger dogs to get to run.
About: Hello!! My name is Maisy. I have worked in various different animal related jobs for the last 5 years, I worked at a doggie daycare/boarding facility and I currently am a dog trainer. I have experience with both puppies and elderly dog as well as cats, reptiles, birds, and farm animals. I also am open to limited contact boarding for people reacting dogs and can do crate rotation for dog reactive dogs away from mine. I work in the evenings 4 days a week so I spend the mornings/afternoons out playing with the pups then they take naps in kennels while I’m at work and we play some more when I get home. I also can move my dogs kennels out of the “dog room” and your dog can just stay in there instead of a kennel if they are more comfortable that way. I have 5 dogs that are very active and friendly. I have a fenced in yard the dogs love to run around in and inside we have lots of toys and comfy places to take naps (which will be put up if there are problems). If I’m not at home or at night all dogs will be kenneled for safety.

About: Located on 10 acres in rural Hoyt, Kansas, Hughes & Hounds provides a spacious safe haven for your furry family members. Our set-up, previously used for dog breeding, includes two (working on three) spacious backyard pens that are the full package deal, including: big shade trees, big water bowls, a doggie igloo and free doggie treats (if you approve of course!). Please note that our dog daycare and boarding services are OUTDOOR ONLY and really for farm/outside dogs, bigger dogs, or dogs with high energy. We will accept any sized dog as long as they’re used to staying outside during the day! With two young kids in the home, we will only bring your dogs inside if the owner provides a crate and only if requested for night time (with the exception of severe weather where they would be crated indoors as well). I work a few afternoons a week, so I will be able to check on your furry pals often during their week & weekend stays with us. We are flexible and want to make sure your wishes are heard. So if you want us to play with your dogs, send you pictures, give treats - we are here for it. But if your dog prefers to not be bothered too much and is good with the essentials - we are here for that too. You tell us how we can provide the most comfortable atmosphere for your dogs. As far as experience goes, I've been a dog sitter on and off from elementary school through college and have volunteered lots of hours to our local shelter.... I love dogs and they're in good hands! :) This is a NEW and fun business adventure for our small family and we do not take it lightly! Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions-we will respond promptly. I only work a few afternoons a week, and my husband gets home before me during those days, so there’s only about 3-4 hour stretches of time we would be gone during the week. Due to this, we feel confident that we can take good care of your dog(s) while they stay here. Since we have the space we thought "why not?" when it came to the idea of dog boarding. We were not using our back 3 pens, other than allowing our dogs to roam them. There were some escape artists when the pens were originally used for breeding, so safety features include covered corners so dogs are unable to climb up and out using the corner fencing. Cement was also laid around the boundaries of the pens so digging cannot occur. If your dog likes to jump fences that would be a concern and a reason why we may not be a good fit for you. Of course, plenty of cold, fresh water will always be available to your dog(s) during their stay.
About: I have always enjoyed interacting with animals from a young age. From catching snakes to saving stray cats and dogs. I have many years experience working with animals and I have enjoyed working with a few animal rescues. I am not intimidated by breed or size. I enjoy high energy dogs or Netflix and chill dogs. I am very active and love taking dogs out on runs and hikes. I have experience with fostering both cats and dogs who were abused and dealt with emotional issues. Cats are welcome! I have an extensive knowledge of animal nutrition. I really love to cook for humans and animals alike and with your permission or upon your request I will cook your pet a gourmet treat. Contact me!
About: Hi! My name is Bentley and I am a Pre-Vet/ Animal Science Major at Kansas State University. This means I will be doing dog sitting in your home. Some qualities that set me apart from other sitters is my level of expertise. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have always been the one to take care of them. However, I also have spent 3 years growing my experience around animals at multiple jobs. I have worked at a doggy daycare, service dog school, and a vet clinic. All of these jobs have allowed me to learn more about the animals and how to properly take care of them regardless or age, size, or breed. I would love to spend time with your pet and give you the comfort you deserve from a pet sitter! Since I am going into my freshman year at K-State my class schedule varies. However, I will always be flexible with hours needed and what works for me. I plan on getting a part time job as well while also ensuring time for your pets! I am very flexible with how I take care of your pets depending on what they are used to with you! However, all pets will be treated with love just like they are my own!

I handle feeding, fresh water, walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and any special care needs, while also keeping the home tidy and secure
About: I’ve had cats and dogs from the time I was 10 and everything from a St Bernard to cats. I can ensure you that your pet will be cared and lived for while they are with me.

I have a fenced yard as well. I do not provide overnight care at the clients home.
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.
“My dog loves Katharine, and my daughter's shy dog also loves her. She did a great job walking my dog: she was very reliable and responsive and made my dog happy. I highly recommend her.”

Sweet, smart, and you can tell she loves dogs deeply. Will use her any time the future requires.”
About: A dog has always been in my house growing up, except when I moved to lawrence to go to school/work. I learned to take care of dogs since I could walk. My first dog was a German Shepard. I learned how to brush, clean, feed, and exercise around 6 years old and have loved dogs ever since. From middle school until now I had a side gig of watching extended family/ friends dogs for the weekends, so I have worked with all types of dogs such as pit bulls, labs, Rottweilers, shorthairs, boxers, huskies, and I also have experience with small dog breeds such as pugs, terrors, mini poodles, and chihuahuas. So don’t worry about what breed of dog you have I am open to all kinds!
About: I've had pets for most of my life. I've cared for my own dogs, cats, and bunnies along with caring for my friends and families animals while they were away. I work part time hours so im pretty available to watch your animals! I work night shifts so i have all day to play with your pets! I have so much room in the house and my dog LOVES friends so being able to share my space and our love brings me joy. I would be happy to follow any routine or request you may have!
“She was great with Nora! She was super accommodating with my last minute booking and everything went smoothly. Very flexible with our pick up and drop off times which I appreciate. Would recommend her serviced!”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs from the time I was 10 and everything from a St Bernard to cats. I can ensure you that your pet will be cared and lived for while they are with me. I currently work from home and can provide around the clock watch care. When I’m not working I like to spend my time with my cat and dog. For drop in care I can take your dog on walks or whatever you would like. If it is overnight care in my home they can have as much outside time or as little as they like. I have a fenced yard as well. I do not provide overnight care at the clients home.
“Maisy did a great job with Ruby (and with me). She sent me a text with pictures of Ruby making friends on the first day and a little information about how she was doing. I got another text from Maisy the next morning to let me know how Rugy had done during the night. I really appreciated the update. This was the first day of my vacation, so I was not able to get Ruby myself, but my daughter got her. She said Ruby was glad to see her but would also have gone back to play with the other dogs if she had been allowed to : ) I will happily ask Maisy to look after her again when the need arises. Sorry this is so long in coming, but I only returned from my trip yesterday.”
“Wonderful! Our dog Eevee enjoyed her stay and felt right at home. The owners of Hugh’s and Hounds were so friendly and did everything to make her stay great! Good communication, went above and beyond! Highly recommend and will use them again if we need to board.”
“Kaylyn was awesome! This was our first time leaving Riley with a sitter overnight so I was pretty nervous, but Kaylyn really knows what she is doing and eased all my worries. She is super responsive, sent tons of adorable pictures of Riley and her pup Ragnar playing and snuggling. Riley was very happy coming home and seemed like he had a good time, we will definitely be booking with Kaylyn again! :)”
“Jake was great with Maya! He asked lots of great questions from the beginning and clearly was excited to spend time with her. He took her to the park, played with her and even got her a ball. I would highly recommend him!”
