Personalized care for your dog or cat - Newman

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Newman

“Our dogs spent a week with Steve and had such a lovely time! Steve was very easy to work with and took great care of our pups. Also, if you have a pet with special needs (one of our girls is partially paralyzed and the other needs eye drops twice a day) I would absolutely recommend Steve.”


“Brandin and his spine are ALWAYS available for our Cocoa girl! She loves coming here. We recently started booking overnights as well and it's been splendid. We trust Brandin and his spouse to the care of our daughter when we need. They've allowed us to book last minute with no extra charge. We will always come back!”

“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!”

“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.”


“Kathi is awesome! She was very flexible when we had to adjust dates, and she is an expert when it comes to introducing new dogs to each other and then beginning the boarding process for a dog's first time. It's clear she's had a lot of experience and our dog seemed to really enjoy the experience. We will be using her again and again!”

“I feel incredibly blessed to have the relationship I have with Mike and Jennifer. It’s difficult to leave your pets when leaving town. But Mike and Jennifer treat my dog so incredibly well, I know they are in great hands. They genuinely care about my dogs and I appreciate that.”

“Lauren was absolutely amazing! I needed an overnight stay in a pinch and she was so communicative and easy to work with. I really appreciated her care for Clover and I will definitely be using her services again. She also has wonderful dogs of her own at her home and I know that my pup loved making new friends.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Petra was a phenomenal sitter for our dogs. She was very communicative and friendly when setting up boarding. She sent photos each day and her property was great for two herding dogs to run around off leash. Perhaps most importantly, our dogs took to her right away since she treated them like her own. Petra is a warm and caring person and I give her my highest recommendation!”


“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!”

“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!”

“Cheryl took such great care of Henry and Ruby! I got daily updates on what they were doing and pictures of them. I could tell they felt at home and were well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Cheryl to take care of your pups.”

“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.”


“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.

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!

“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.”

“Alejandra did an amazing job looking after our two kitties! It can be very difficult to find a sitter that you trust to look after your babies and she proved to be very trustworthy and attentive. We will book again! 💕”

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. Not only that but I also have two fur baby's of my own, a black lab and a golden retriever. I have had my lab since he was about 2, and my golden retriever I got when she was about 12 weeks old. 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 but my golden loves the occasional company! I do work M-F and would be out of the home from 715am-5pm. I work full time for a nonprofit in Ottawa, 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 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.

“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!!!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Newman
“We had never had a puppy sitter before, and Daniel was the best first experience we could have hoped for! We needed a last minute sitter for the super bowl, and Daniel was incredibly helpful. His home was clean, he has a number of dog-friendly toys for your pup to play with, and he sent the CUTEST photos of the puppy while we were out and about. He has a wealth of knowledge about dogs, and our puppy was comfortable immediately in his space. We'll definitely be reaching out to Daniel for any of our puppy daycare needs :)”

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: 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.

Even reinforcing training and exposure on the daily to keep Junie the bestest boy ever. I’m grateful for Steve.”

“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.

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: Taken care of family dogs since 2010, ranging from small to large breeds. Experience in caring for more than one dog at a time. Comfortable walking small to large dogs. I have my own dog, she is a 2 year old dachshund-poodle mix who loves to play with dogs. I trained her since she was a puppy and is fully vaccinated and house-trained. Will provide loving care for your pets as I would my own. Full-Time student at KU. I live close to campus and can provide pet care in between classes throughout the day. Free availability on weekends and holidays. In class starting in August from 9am-3pm MWF, 12pm-6pm on Tuesday, and 12pm-2pm on Thursday. I have free periods on MWF to check in on pets and provide meals or walks. I have one small (20lbs) female dog who is spayed, fully vaccinated, and trained. My dog loves other dogs and is used to living with small to large dogs. I monitor pets closely during visits to make sure they are safe.
About: I have taken care of dogs for the majority of my life. I’ve grown up with them in many parts of my family and i’ve also taken care of family-friends animals when needed! I have no problems with providing animals with the care they deserve! I am currently working full time as a Waitress/Bartender! I have three dogs of my own that I take care of during my off time! My schedule does vary week to week, but it can also be flexible! I currently live in an apartment. I love taking my dogs on walks or to the dog parks around town. I also love just sitting outside with them on my porch and enjoying the weather!

About: I have been working for a dog boarding and daycare facility for about a year and a half now! I have learned lots about dog behavior and how to interact with lots of different personalities- and I am still learning every day! I have experience in administering medications and would love to meet your pup! I currently work full-time caring for pets at a daycare facility, typically working either 6-1 or 1-7 Tuesday through Saturday. Fully available on Sunday and Monday! I have my own pup who is fixed and very friendly! I can bring him along if you want your dog to have any socialization or burn extra energy, but I am also more than happy to focus on your pet!
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 able to work on training that has been set in place and I am able to help care for senior dogs. I have had cats my entire life so I am capable of cleaning out litter boxes and playing with the cats with toys. 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.
About: I have always been known to my parents friends and neighbors and the person to call if you need help watching your animal. I’ve been pet sitting dogs specifically for just over 4 years but before that I watched everything from cats, to fish, and hamsters. I’ve dealt with numerous dogs suffering from seizures along with many recovering from surgery’s so I know how to handle almost everything. I’m currently a college student. I have some Morning commitments however I can be home with your pet for most of the day, or stop by at any point during the day to walk or let them out. I have an english golden retriever myself so there is another dog within my house, however he’s very friendly with other dogs. We don’t use a crate in our house and the dogs are allowed on the furniture but I’m happy to follow whatever you prefer for your own animal.
About: I have had dogs since I was born, from chihuahuas to labradors. Over the years I have taken care of friends and family's various animals, pet sitting, dog walking, and even helping groom them. I love all animals and believe all animals should be loved! I especially love taking care of senior animals, and make sure to care for them at their level. Im very good with time management and routines, making sure your animals are always cared for on time and in their routine. I also love taking care of puppies. I love playtime, walks, and ensuring your puppies don't tear down the house! All pets should be healthy, happy, and active. I will ensure your fur baby gets the best care while thriving in a safe, loving environment. Im currently in collage starting my Junior Year, when Im not in classes I am available, both morning and night, and usually free on the weekends. I am very adaptable to schedules and would love to make both our schedules work! I offer pet walking, and pet sitting, and daily check ins. I want to ensure your pet gets all the care they need, on time and in their specific routines. As well as making your pet feel loved and cared for.

“Our dogs spent a week with Steve and had such a lovely time! Steve was very easy to work with and took great care of our pups. Also, if you have a pet with special needs (one of our girls is partially paralyzed and the other needs eye drops twice a day) I would absolutely recommend Steve.”


“Brandin and his spine are ALWAYS available for our Cocoa girl! She loves coming here. We recently started booking overnights as well and it's been splendid. We trust Brandin and his spouse to the care of our daughter when we need. They've allowed us to book last minute with no extra charge. We will always come back!”

“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!”

“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.”

“Lauren was absolutely amazing! I needed an overnight stay in a pinch and she was so communicative and easy to work with. I really appreciated her care for Clover and I will definitely be using her services again. She also has wonderful dogs of her own at her home and I know that my pup loved making new friends.”

“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!”

“Petra was a phenomenal sitter for our dogs. She was very communicative and friendly when setting up boarding. She sent photos each day and her property was great for two herding dogs to run around off leash. Perhaps most importantly, our dogs took to her right away since she treated them like her own. Petra is a warm and caring person and I give her my highest recommendation!”

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.

“Cheryl took such great care of Henry and Ruby! I got daily updates on what they were doing and pictures of them. I could tell they felt at home and were well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Cheryl to take care of your pups.”
“Carissa took great care of my Nala. Nala hurt her leg a few days before we were going out of town and Carissa was very willing to give her the extra attention she needed! She will definitely be hangout out with Carissa again!!”
“Regan was amazing. She kept our dog and cat for two nights. She was so knowledgeable about animals and knew just how to care for them. She sent me pictures of them while I was away and eased my worried mind. I highly recommend using her!”

“Maisy was wonderful! From setting up a meet and greet to being so helpful throughout the stay. She sent pictures to keep us updated. The rates were reasonable and worth it. Will definitely book again in the future!”

“I couldn’t say enough good things about this experience. Magen was so awesome with the pups. They walked them, ran them, took them to the park and I can tell that they loved them the entire time they were being taken care of. Magen even sent us home with home made dog treats and amazing pictures and videos the whole time! I know Duke and Roxzy can’t wait to see her again! ❤️”

“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!”


“They took amazing care of my fur baby! Carolyn was incredibly thoughtful and went above and beyond to keep us connected to our pet while we were away from him. They treated him like family which meant the world to us. We will definitely request them to care for our baby again next time we need a sitter! 100% recommended!!”
