“Brandin and Diana were really easy to work with and flexible when our schedule changed a bit. Our pup, Phoebe, seemed happy when we picked her up and you could tell she even bonded with their daughter! We’ll be using them again for boarding!”
“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.”
“Tobey had a great time with Jennifer! We were able to do a last minute booking with her without any complications and she was eager to help. She also kept me updated and sent me photos while we were gone! Would definitely recommend and will plan to use her in the future!”
“Nadia was amazing! Our pet had the best time at her place and she was super accommodating to us. Not only that, but she also made sure to constantly update us on everything that happened and how she was doing throughout the whole stay!”
“We were so happy to find Yana. We needed boarding for 4 days while we were out of town. The boys looked like they felt right at home when we dropped them off. They had the perfect fenced in yard to play in. And from the pictures Yana sent to us it looked like they were family pets. We were very pleased with the care and attention Yana gave our westie boys.”
“Cal and their dog Rory were great with my dog Carlos. I got daily updates while I was gone and he was happy and healthy when I picked him up. I will be sure to use them again.”
“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.”
About: Friends and family have relied on me to check in with, feeding and playing with their pets. And even sometimes have play dates with my dog. I’m currently trying to find things to keep me busy there out the week/weekends so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m available during the week and weekends at any time. I have two friendly pets to keep your fur baby company.crate your dog if needed I have a labradoodle. She is two years old and I have a Sphynx cat, which is four years old.
“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!”
“Steve is great. Really good guy who obviously cares about his and other people’s pets. He’s very accommodating and flexible. My dogs enjoy being there. Steve has become my go-to pet sitter in Lawrence.”
“Kathi was a pro at dealing with our little Charlie. I could tell that he bonded with her based on his body language. Thank you Kathi, for taking the worry out of this doggie mama.”
“Daniel was so kind, attentive, and our dog was clearly well cared for. He was flexible when my drop off and pick up times were shifting. I would definitely use him again to watch my baby if we’re in Lawrence again. Thank you Daniel!!!!”
“Amanda was great at communicating before and during our pup's stay. Our girl was definitely well taken care of and had a lot of fun! We will look forward to having her with Amanda again in the future!”
“Tamber is amazing. I have left my dog with her twice now and she is not only super responsive, but was flexible with me when my travel plans changed. Never once had to worry about my dogs care plans with Tamber. HIGHLY recommend for your fur babies.”
“I was so nervous about leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know while I was out of town, but Paige completely put my mind at ease! She was amazing! She kept me updated with lots of photos and videos, which made being away so much easier, and I could tell my pup was having the best time. She was also incredibly flexible with my last minute booking, and I truly appreciated that. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’ll definitely be booking with Paige again. Highly recommend!”
“Outstanding! From the moment I arrived, it was clear that Cheryl is a dog person's dog person. My beast boldly explored her home to her laughter and then he settled in to hold her hand on the couch. Cheryl's provision of photos while I was away proved a great comfort to me and her conveyance of concern for my animal's paws in the icy snow demonstrated the level of care she affords her charges. I highly recommend Cheryl and will happily book her again in the future. Cheryl is accommodating and caring to the highest degree. My big yellow beast wants me to say hello for him.”
“Thanks Melanie for accomodating my fairly last-minute boarding need! Abby and I both felt immediately comfortable with her, her partner, and their home. Communication was prompt and thorough, and I loved all the pictures! I'd def recommend Melanie and rebook!”
“This is our second boarding with Lauren for our German Shepherd puppy and this day was wonderful for our dog and us. Lauren is great with communication and updates and our puppy loves spending time with her and her dogs. Highly recommend Lauren! She’s made being a new pet owner so much easier knowing we can entrust our puppy to someone loves him like her own!”

About: I stand out because I’m confident and experienced when it comes to caring for cats of all ages and personalities. I’m especially skilled at administering medications, whether it’s liquid medicine or pills, and I make the process as stress-free as possible. Most cats hardly even notice! Senior cats are always welcome, and I’m happy to provide the extra patience and gentle care they need. I’m also very particular about keeping litter boxes clean because I know how important a fresh, clean environment is for a cat’s comfort and well-being. Above all, I treat every cat as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Justine did a great job with my kitties. Even my shy one warmed up to her after a day or so. The pictures she sent were great and my kitties look so happy in them. She was also kind enough to bring my mail in and pre-wash the kitty plates.She even took the litter genie bag out to the trash can when it was full. She was wonderful and I will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I treasure gaining a cat’s trust. We all know it’s not always easy to open up to new people; but with time, patience, and lot of slow blinks and treats I’m here to bring your feline friend around to the idea.
“Amazing experience, will definitely use again! Quick response when booking and able to arrange same day visit. Very flexible and feels comfortable giving pet medication which is quite helpful.”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on animal care background. I previously worked as a zookeeper, where I cared for many different animal species and was responsible for daily feeding, cleaning, medication administration, and monitoring overall health and behavior. I also helped train animals for medical care, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to recognize signs of stress, discomfort, or illness. On top of that, I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets with special routines, including medication needs, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or structure. Pet care fits really well into my weekly routine. I coach Gymnastics Monday through Thursday, but I have a few open gaps throughout the day that allow me to stop by for check-ins, potty breaks, walks, feeding, and medication if needed. I also have Friday through Sunday off, which gives me much more flexibility for longer visits, extra walks, overnight care, and weekend house sitting. Since my schedule has built-in availability during the week and open weekends, I’m able to give pets consistent attention without feeling rushed. I prefer to watch and care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safe and familiar. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owners' instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, cleaning up after them, and keeping their routine as normal as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort while their owner is away. I also respect the client’s home by keeping things clean, secure, and leaving everything as I found it.
“CAL WAS A TROOPER. HAD TO DEAL WITH OUR NEW DOG WYLIE COYOTE. AKA MR DESTRUCTO. SURPRISE! I GET A NEW LEATHER COUCH AND LOVESEAT. MR DESTRUCTO MAY GET A NEW HOME! WHO KNEW. THANK YOU FOR WATCHING OUT FOR MY SWEET INNOCENT BABIES!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life, and currently have a 7.5 year old female redbone coonhound puppy and a 5 year old female mixed breed. I love being around them, teaching them new tricks and commands. I am open from 6a.m to 1p.m. I can take dog (s) to the dog park or on a short ride or walk to get some energy out. I also enjoy having my kids around other dogs to show them different breeds and sizes. I love being around all animals and enjoy the different personalities they show.

Give 2 days notice Caring for any animals is always different but giving any kind of love is the best for them. Whether it be laying on the couch snuggling, outside running around doing who knows what, or even just sitting on the porch watching people walk by
“Jenna was awesome with taking care of my newly adopted cat! I came back to my place just as I had left it, with a happy cat that was well taken care of. I would most definitely book her again if I ever need a pet-sitter again, she's great with animals and very responsive any time I would message her.”
“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 have taken care of all types of animals since I was young. I’ve worked with dogs, cats and farm animals. Nothing will surprise me!! I work as an athletic trainer at a high school. I don’t go into work until 1:30 or 2 pm everyday so why not spend my mornings with your lovely pets! I will take your dog for walks/runs and play with them to get all that energy out. If they are good they will be rewarded with treats (if you prefer them to not have treats then they can be showered with love). If it’s a drop in visit then I will take them to the bathroom and feed them if necessary.

“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!”

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.

“Steve is so very sweet. Juniper is a big puppy with lots of energy and emotions. Tbh, an exhausting toddler. He has so much love to give he just explodes.

Even reinforcing training and exposure on the daily to keep Junie the bestest boy ever. I’m grateful for Steve.”
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: 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.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs back home my personal favorite were my wiener dogs. I’ll treat them just like my niece or nephew. I’ve been a house sitter looking after dogs for some of my colleagues and family.I also got a two puppers of my own Just leave the dogs schedule and requirements and I’ll do exactly that. I also have a background in medical training as a hospital corpsman in case of any emergencies. I’m a Veteran going to college so My schedule is pretty flexible these days. I have a pretty good routine with my dogs so extra dogs are no problem. My dogs already have a set schedule, they love to play in the backyard, and love walks and pup cones! My house has plenty of rooms and easy access through the doggy door to the back yard. And a lot of room around the house. It’s a pet loving home, some could say the run the house ❣️
About: I've been working in the dog care industry for at least 10 years! Certified through Animal Behavior College,(abcdt) 2014 and the Council of professional dog trainers (ccpdt) since 2017. I can train your dog or just snuggle them and play with them! I am working towards going full time care taker so that I can build my clientele. As of now I work full time at a doggie day care as their manager and dog trainer and will be decreasing my hours as my clients increase! I can travel to your home or bring your best friend to mine! I have a very large fenced in back yard, and a very friendly dog. A few kennels for rest time as well.
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 grew up on the family farm surrounded by dogs and cats and all kinds of animals - caring for them was part of my life. That lifelong connection led me to volunteer at a local dog and cat shelter where I've gained even more experience with pets of all temperaments and needs. I treat every animal like a family and I willl give your pet loving care whether it's for a quick walk or an overnight stay. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fully prioritize pet care. My days naturally revolve around the animals I am caring for and I enjoy creating routine that suits their needs. My home, farm in the woods, is a dog paradise where they can relax, go for walks or play. In client's home, I'm respectful of their space and routines, I communicate with the owner, send updates and make sure the pet has all my attention.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, took care of them and have a great passion for animals. I’ve had my own pets since 2007 (2 cats and a dog). Since 2020 I have fostered animals for a local shelter including dogs, puppies as young as 6 months, and kittens as young as 5 weeks. I have basic experience in dog training. I’m currently working on a part-time contract basis so my schedule is very flexible and I would love to help you care for your pet(s). I am available daily with a set schedule to accommodate your needs. I am an experienced foster of dogs and kittens. I have a dedicated space (spare bedroom) to keep any animals separate from mine, but if they are dog and cat friendly they could be free roaming in the house when I am home. I have a cable for supervised potty time in the yard. I am experienced with crate training. I am clean and professional, respecting your space and routines in your home.
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!
“Lauren really loves animals and it shows. I’ve never met anyone so kind and caring with their pets. This is the best pet sitting experience I’ve ever had by far and my dog seemed really happy. I’ll be using Lauren exclusively from now on. Thank you so much Lauren 🩷”
About: I have had dogs in my home for almost my whole life. I have a pug, golden retriever, and a mutt that are all a couple years apart in age. For two years, I volunteered at a humane society where I walked and cared for dogs of all kinds. Senior, puppy, sick, I have a lot of experience and I would love to get more! I’m currently working at a golf course near Forest Lake. My schedule for work comes out weekly, so I’m unaware what my weeks look like well in advance. I don’t like to do this, but if your pups are able to be home for about 6-8, then this would be a great fit! Obviously I wouldn’t work every day of the week, so I will be available to give them my full attention. Your pups are my priority and I wouldn’t want them to feel uncomfortable with my wack work schedule in any way. My shifts will either be 6-2 or 2-9, or shorter. I prioritize respect for your space and routines. Whether your pet prefers potty breaks in a fenced yard or leashed walks, I’ll follow your preferences to keep them comfortable and safe.
About: Taking care of your pets is my top priority and making sure you get back to a happy dog. I’ve dog sat and cat sat for neighbors, family friends and friends of my own. I always have a lot of energy and I enjoy being around dogs and playing with them and walking them. I’m always making sure I’m on top of things to make sure everything that needs to be done is done and all the requirements are fulfilled. Pets always do a good job at comforting and making us happy, so I want to make sure I do the same and give back to them. I’ll treat your furry friends as they were my own with love and care and a lot of playtime. I also do house keeping and anything else you need help with around the house or errands.

About: I have had my own personal dogs for a little over a year. But I have been pet sitting for longer than that.

I am currently working part time as a kitchen assistant so I am only available at certain times during the week. Also there are some days where I will have to work full time and sometimes my schedule changes the day of. I would try to keep any previous schedule that had been set for the client’s pets. I would walk and play with them as necessary. It would be my goal to make this easy on both the owners and the pets.

If I’m not at home or at night all dogs will be kenneled for safety.
About: I have taken care of anything from horses to cats! I have attentive care and provided updates as requested. I have trained puppies and kittens so have plenty of patience for all! I’m currently using this app between jobs as i just moved to kansas for college rock chalk! I have a very open schedule and communicate effectively! I can easily crate any pets, take them on walks/runs, take them to parks or even just hangout at home with them! Always up for a good adventure with any pet.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly care for every pet as if they were my own. Shy, anxious, or even grumpy pets don’t intimidate me—I take the time to earn their trust and help them feel safe and comfortable. I’m also experienced and comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, including administering medications and following special care instructions. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a curious adult, or a sweet senior who needs extra patience and attention, I’ll provide the same love, care, and compassion they deserve. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands. I work full time but have Wednesdays off and almost every weekend off. I also like to visit twice a day so I can check on any animal and make sure they are okay! If I am able I can always try to visit more! I treat any animal like my own but also respect whatever the owner wants. I will love them like they are my own! I can fit whatever they need into my schedule also!

“Brandin and Diana were really easy to work with and flexible when our schedule changed a bit. Our pup, Phoebe, seemed happy when we picked her up and you could tell she even bonded with their daughter! We’ll be using them again for boarding!”
“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.”
“Tobey had a great time with Jennifer! We were able to do a last minute booking with her without any complications and she was eager to help. She also kept me updated and sent me photos while we were gone! Would definitely recommend and will plan to use her in the future!”
“Nadia was amazing! Our pet had the best time at her place and she was super accommodating to us. Not only that, but she also made sure to constantly update us on everything that happened and how she was doing throughout the whole stay!”
“We were so happy to find Yana. We needed boarding for 4 days while we were out of town. The boys looked like they felt right at home when we dropped them off. They had the perfect fenced in yard to play in. And from the pictures Yana sent to us it looked like they were family pets. We were very pleased with the care and attention Yana gave our westie boys.”
“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.”
About: Friends and family have relied on me to check in with, feeding and playing with their pets. And even sometimes have play dates with my dog. I’m currently trying to find things to keep me busy there out the week/weekends so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m available during the week and weekends at any time. I have two friendly pets to keep your fur baby company.crate your dog if needed I have a labradoodle. She is two years old and I have a Sphynx cat, which is four years old.
“Steve is great. Really good guy who obviously cares about his and other people’s pets. He’s very accommodating and flexible. My dogs enjoy being there. Steve has become my go-to pet sitter in Lawrence.”
“Daniel was so kind, attentive, and our dog was clearly well cared for. He was flexible when my drop off and pick up times were shifting. I would definitely use him again to watch my baby if we’re in Lawrence again. Thank you Daniel!!!!”
“Amanda was great at communicating before and during our pup's stay. Our girl was definitely well taken care of and had a lot of fun! We will look forward to having her with Amanda again in the future!”
“Tamber is amazing. I have left my dog with her twice now and she is not only super responsive, but was flexible with me when my travel plans changed. Never once had to worry about my dogs care plans with Tamber. HIGHLY recommend for your fur babies.”
“Outstanding! From the moment I arrived, it was clear that Cheryl is a dog person's dog person. My beast boldly explored her home to her laughter and then he settled in to hold her hand on the couch. Cheryl's provision of photos while I was away proved a great comfort to me and her conveyance of concern for my animal's paws in the icy snow demonstrated the level of care she affords her charges. I highly recommend Cheryl and will happily book her again in the future. Cheryl is accommodating and caring to the highest degree. My big yellow beast wants me to say hello for him.”
“Thanks Melanie for accomodating my fairly last-minute boarding need! Abby and I both felt immediately comfortable with her, her partner, and their home. Communication was prompt and thorough, and I loved all the pictures! I'd def recommend Melanie and rebook!”
“This is our second boarding with Lauren for our German Shepherd puppy and this day was wonderful for our dog and us. Lauren is great with communication and updates and our puppy loves spending time with her and her dogs. Highly recommend Lauren! She’s made being a new pet owner so much easier knowing we can entrust our puppy to someone loves him like her own!”
“Regan was awesome! She worked around the holiday schedule and got our pup in for our trip. Very professional and gave us updates daily! Will be using her in the future as my go-to gal in the area:)”
“Chelsea and her family were wonderful with our dogs. We would definitely use them again. They sent us updates and pictures on our pets which were very comforting. Would recommend them to anyone”
“Felicity was great! This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone who wasn't family, so I was very nervous! Felicity did a wonderful job not only taking great care of our boys, but also sending pictures and updates so that my worries were put at ease throughout the time we were gone. She also made drop off/pick up very easy. I tried my best to give her an accurate window of when I'd be there, and she was ready and waiting both times. My dogs came home with what looked like smiles on their faces and exhausted from getting to play with her two dogs the entire weekend! 🥰💖 Thank you Felicity!”
“This is my third time booking with Valentine! She does a great job ensuring the comfortability of my cat! My cat is usually shy but is always quick to warm up to Valentine. Valentine does also does a great job communicating and keeping you updated!”
