This was our first time using Rover and Brandin, his wife Caroline and family were wonderful to work with. They helped ease our nerves and reassured us our dog would do great, which he did. They are very nice people and great to work with. Quick to respond and took wonderful care of our dog. We plan to use them again and it’s nice that our dog has another loving family to go to while we’re away.

Cal and their dog Rory did such a fantastic job watching Stella for me that I’ve already asked them to keep her again. Stella could not have gotten more love anywhere and she had a great time. Cal sent me pictures and updates multiple times a day and couldn’t have been greater. I wholeheartedly recommend them!

We couldn't be happier with the care Yana provided for Apollo and Hermes! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she truly cares about animals. Yana kept a close eye on our boys, ensuring they were safe, happy, and well entertained while we were away. They went above and beyond, not just with daily love and playtime, but by taking them to Christmas at her family’s house! They had so much fun, and it was heartwarming to see how well they were integrated into the family’s festivities. The boys loved them, and it felt like they were part of their extended family too! Yana has a natural ability to connect with animals, and it was a huge relief to know they were in such capable hands. Her communication was top-notch throughout, and we loved getting pupdates with pictures on their adventures. We highly recommend her and will definitely be asking for her help again in the future. Thank you, Yana, for everything you did for Apollo and Hermes!

It was such a relief to know Nugget was being well taken care of and happy while we were gone. It made our trip extra great!

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!

About: I have always had pets in the home. I believe animals are like children. I volunteer part time at prarie paws animal shelter in ottawa to share my love for pets. I train all of my own pets and am able to handle large dogs, difficult leash walkers, and provide mentally stimulating activities. I work 5 minutes from home. On week days I go home for my lunch to care for the animals in my care. The animals will only have to go up to 4 hours during the day without interaction. During this time they will be supervised via a monitor in the room. We are a multi pet home. We have 2 dogs, 1 cat, 3 fish tanks, and even chickens. We love animals! Your pet will have his or her own private suite in our home which includes a bed, Kennel, toys, blanket etc. We provide activities that will help mentally stimulate your pet and ease their anxiety. The upper level of our home is where your pet will be housed, away from the other animals to prevent any conflicts that may occur and reduce any anxiety that may come with unfamiliar animals. We are able to take up to 2 pets. This number is decided on the amount of private space we are able to provide your pet. 2 rooms are available.

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

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 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.

I had to leave my 1 yr old Pup “Maggie” for 9 days over the holiday… HATED leaving her, but Brandin seemed to take great care of her while I was away. I received pictures everyday. I left him with tips on Maggie’s personality and things she did and liked. He took notes and applied them. When me and Maggie were driving away she was looking back as to say where are my people. Looking for them intensely. I felt she liked them and I would absolutely have them look after Maggie again. Thank you Brandin

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have been caring for pets since childhood. I grew up with both cats and dogs, including a Maltese, and currently share my home with an Australian Shepherd–Brittany Spaniel mix and my cat Josie. I have rescued two former outdoor/stray cats who I named Mabel and Astrid. One lives with my Grandpa while the other was given to my cousin! My favorite side-quests are animal rescuing! 😄 Alongside this, I’ve raised puppies and kittens of all ages, cared for senior pets, given medication, and even rescued a squirrel once (my ultimate side quest!). As said, I’ve occasionally helped strays by feeding and socializing them over the years, which has taught me patience, gentleness, and how to read animal body language. Professionally, I work in the behavioral health field, with over five years in Applied Behavioral Analysis as a behavior tech and a year as a mental health therapist student. I naturally apply those skills when working with animals by reading into the “unsaid.” Whether that is helping an anxious dog feel safe, reinforcing positive behaviors, or calmly navigating new environments, I am ready! I understand that pets are family. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication so you can feel fully at ease while your pet is in my care. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, cuddles, or space, I’m attentive to their individual personality and needs, and I genuinely love making sure every furry friend feels happy and understood. I am available to provide pet care services anytime between May 12 and July 12, 2026. During this period, I can accommodate flexible schedules and multiple visits per week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I prioritize consistency and routine for pets, ensuring they receive regular feeding, exercise, and attention. After July 13, 2026, I will be working full-time and will only be able to accept a limited number of clients for very minimal days, so I plan to carefully manage my schedule to maintain high-quality care and attention for each pet. I prioritize safety, trust, and a positive environment for every pet in my care. I ensure secure spaces, supervise playtime, and maintain a calm and structured routine. I tailor care to each pet’s individual personality and needs, whether that means cuddles, exercise, or quiet time. I am attentive to subtle behavioral cues and changes, thanks to my background in behavioral health, and I always communicate clearly with pet owners to ensure they feel confident and comfortable with my care.

About: I received a certification in the Fundamentals of Clicker training and positive reinforcement in a Karen Pryor Academy class. I have experience training puppies to behave correctly with humans and dogs. From the age of 8 to adulthood, I ran my own house sitting business in cities in eastern Kansas, including Lawrence, and Overland Park, KS. I have worked in Veterinary Clinics, Humane Societies and dog boarding facilities. Through experience and classes I know how to interact with our beloved furry friends. I know how dogs communicate, dog breed characteristics, breed groups, developmental stages, play styles, and how to meet their needs. I am determined to help strengthen the bond between you and your dog. I practice a routine when I take care of the dogs in my care. They spend 1/4 time exercising, another 1/4 time playing either with their canine buddies and or with me, 1/4 the time training or learning a new trick, mentally stimulate them, and finally the last 1/4 of time resting. As you know, all dogs crave structure and routine. When they know what to expect, then they know how to behave. My knowledge of dog safety and how to treat all dogs with individual needs will ensure you peace of mind. I have worked with many dog breeds, all sizes, and all ages. I do not have any breed preferences. I currently own three dogs: Skye is a lab mix, a senior ( 8 years old), Westly, a corgi, is a senior ( 11 years old), and Ginny is a lab mix, just a wee puppy (8 months old) Developing meaningful relationships with canines is my passion. I always treat my clients' dogs like they were my own. I’m currently working @ TLC Pet Nursing Hotel Monday-Friday but my hours vary. It just depends on the day. Please send me a message to check my availability in more detail! I have a fenced in yard and always go out with my dogs so I can make sure they are safely inside the yard and also to make sure they have healthy bowl movements. I have been told that I’m very trustworthy. I use my experience and knowledge to help each canine in my care. If there’s something “wrong” or different about a dogs behavior I will check in with you their human parents. It is very important to me that one, you are happy with the service I provide and two, that you feel comfortable with me taking care of your fur children! Please let me know how I can best serve you!

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

This was our first time using Rover and Brandin, his wife Caroline and family were wonderful to work with. They helped ease our nerves and reassured us our dog would do great, which he did. They are very nice people and great to work with. Quick to respond and took wonderful care of our dog. We plan to use them again and it’s nice that our dog has another loving family to go to while we’re away.

Kelsey was wonderful with Willow. I was able to enjoy my trip without any worries about Willows care. I will definitely call upon Kelsey again if needed. I enjoyed the update pictures and updates she sent me.

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!

We couldn't be happier with the care Yana provided for Apollo and Hermes! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she truly cares about animals. Yana kept a close eye on our boys, ensuring they were safe, happy, and well entertained while we were away. They went above and beyond, not just with daily love and playtime, but by taking them to Christmas at her family’s house! They had so much fun, and it was heartwarming to see how well they were integrated into the family’s festivities. The boys loved them, and it felt like they were part of their extended family too! Yana has a natural ability to connect with animals, and it was a huge relief to know they were in such capable hands. Her communication was top-notch throughout, and we loved getting pupdates with pictures on their adventures. We highly recommend her and will definitely be asking for her help again in the future. Thank you, Yana, for everything you did for Apollo and Hermes!

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.

Sheila is extremely kind, professional, and loving to animals. She went absolutely above and beyond caring for my very rambunctious puppy and I was touched to see how much she cared. She is an excellent communicator and I hope I have the privilege of working with her and her family again’

My dog was left in great hands! Communicating with her was easy and fast! You can tell she cares for pets. My dog came home the same way i left her. She wasn’t scared and still slept through the night fine.

Sally did a wonderful job taking care of our Nugget. She took him into her home, and treated him like he was her own dog. Sally sent many pictures of Nugget, and I could see how comfortable he was. It was such a relief to know Nugget was being well taken care of and happy while we were gone. It made our trip extra great!

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!

About: I have always had pets in the home. I believe animals are like children. I volunteer part time at prarie paws animal shelter in ottawa to share my love for pets. I train all of my own pets and am able to handle large dogs, difficult leash walkers, and provide mentally stimulating activities. I work 5 minutes from home. On week days I go home for my lunch to care for the animals in my care. The animals will only have to go up to 4 hours during the day without interaction. During this time they will be supervised via a monitor in the room. We are a multi pet home. We have 2 dogs, 1 cat, 3 fish tanks, and even chickens. We love animals! Your pet will have his or her own private suite in our home which includes a bed, Kennel, toys, blanket etc. We provide activities that will help mentally stimulate your pet and ease their anxiety. The upper level of our home is where your pet will be housed, away from the other animals to prevent any conflicts that may occur and reduce any anxiety that may come with unfamiliar animals. We are able to take up to 2 pets. This number is decided on the amount of private space we are able to provide your pet. 2 rooms are available.

My dog Suk stayed with Hunter for about a week. He seemed very happy in all the photos she sent of him. She did a great job taking care of him and playing with him while I was gone. Highly recommend!
