About: I've been taking care of cats ever since I was 10 years old. I have owned three cats in my lifetime. I am experienced with various ages from kittens to elderly care with kidney problems.

About: I have hands on, everyday experience caring for four Golden Retrievers of my own. Managing a multi dog household has given me skills in canine schedule structure, supervision, and understanding of different personalities and energy levels. I also have experience caring for infant puppies, including feeding schedules, potty training foundations, crate introduction, and the patience that can sometimes be needed during those important early development stages. I’m comfortable maintaining routines, reinforcing basic training, and providing both high-energy play and calm, attentive care. Your pet will be treated like part of my family: safe, loved, and well cared for! I work remotely full time, so I am very flexible and am able to meet you and your schedule requests, whether it be for in-home visits, walk outing, or overnight stays. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise routines, and any specific instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also reinforcing any training or household rules you have in place. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: While I don't have formal experience, I've spent my whole life taking care of pets at home. I've even raised our current pups from puppies to adulthood, handling everything from feeding to playtime. My goal is to treat every pet like part of the family. I'm currently a college student down in Springfield, but whenever I'm back in town for breaks or summer, I will have a fairly flexible schedule! I'm available on the weekends, evenings, and soon to be during the weekdays as well! Every pet deserves the family treatment! I'm careful to follow their set routines and rules - whether it's playtime, feeding, or crate time. Your pet's safety always comes first!
About: I’ve been around cats for many years and have experience caring for them through every stage of life, from young kittens to senior cats. I currently have an adult cat and a kitten, Sunnie, and I’m familiar with kitten care, feeding schedules, nail trims, litter box maintenance, playtime, and helping cats feel comfortable in their environment. I’ve also cared for cats with medical needs, including administering medications and monitoring their health, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and paying attention to the little details. In addition to caring for my own cats, I have taken care of many friends kitties while they’re away. I truly love getting to know each cat’s unique personality and always strive to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every cat is different and I always respect boundaries.
About: I have experience working at a doggy daycare that also boarded cats, where caring for the feline guests quickly became my favorite part of the job. I enjoyed engaging cats through play, enrichment, and individualized attention while ensuring they felt comfortable and secure during their stay. I am confident in reading feline body language and understand the importance of respecting each cat's unique personality and boundaries. As a cat owner myself, I am passionate about providing reliable, attentive care and treating every cat as if they were my own.

About: I have been a cat owner for 13 years. I apoted my black Maine coon Blade from wayside waifs when he was a tiny 8 week old kitten. With having a long hair cat I know how important it is to brush them out and keep their litter box clean. We play with lots of toys and his favorite toy is the Lazer pointer. I am currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to spend time with your baby/babies.
About: Have taken care of many animals in my life. Had a dog since age 7. At this point I have cared for 16 dogs in my life all different breeds and sizes. Loved everyone of them. Let me help get your puppy some exercise and attention. I currently do work so I walk dogs when I'm not at work. My availability as it changes will be posted so my clients have a clear idea of when I am available. I live in an apartment so there is plenty of grass and large open space to go for walks. I do have an extra large kennel as well if needed for any pet.
About: If I had to describe myself, I'd say I'm a bit of a Disney princess—animals just seem to warm up to me. 😊 While I've never personally owned a cat, I've cared for cats from 20+ different families over the past 10 years, so I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from the social "pet me immediately" type to the shy "I'll watch you from across the room for three days" type. I believe every cat deserves to be cared for on their terms. Whether that means sitting quietly while they decide if I'm trustworthy, playing with their favorite toy, sticking to a strict feeding routine, or simply making sure they have a calm, clean, stress-free environment while you're away, I'm happy to adapt to what makes them most comfortable. I know how important updates are when you're missing your pets, so I make it a point to send plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing they're happy, healthy, and well cared for. My goal isn't just to stop by and refill a food bowl—it's to make your cat feel as safe and comfortable as possible until you're home.
“Gabby-thank you for taking care of our senior kitty at your house again! We loved the photos and updates. She definitely seemed more comfortable with your dogs and house this time (i.e. lounging everywhere).”

“My two small Chihuahua mixes absolutely love their time at Mike and Sharon's! We use them mainly for daycare and they usually always have a couple small puppy friends there, so they are exhausted and sleep all night when they get home! We have used them for boarding too and have nothing but praise. If you need a sitter or lower stimulation doggy daycare, Sharon's your girl!”

In addition to walking and visiting with your dog, communication and updates are important services that I provide. When I am away from my pet, I want to know she's okay and receiving the best care. I'll send as many or as little photos of your fur baby as you'd like, so you can confidently know that she/he is being take care of; the photos will also give you a little smile to get you through the day. We also have a 9 year old cat, Moby. He keeps to himself and his cat tree on most days, but we occasionally receive some lap visits from him.
“Pumba had a great time! It was so nice to have someone to watch our puppy while we played in K.C. We used Nicole for two days and Pumba was eager to go back and see her on the second day. She is definitely a dog lover!”
About: Moonbabies Little Lodge offers boutique home boarding designed especially for small dogs who enjoy a calm household environment. Your dog will stay in a cozy home setting with a small resident pack of friendly toy-breed dogs and plenty of supervised outdoor playtime in our secure backyard play yard. Our yard features enrichment areas just for small dogs, including ramps, tunnels, lounging spots, and shaded cabana areas where pups can relax between play sessions. In warm weather we even bring out a splash pad for dogs who enjoy cooling off. Inside the home, dogs are part of the family during the day and sleep comfortably in their own individual night pens with beds and toys for a peaceful evening routine. Because this is a small home environment, we typically host only 2–3 guest dogs at a time, allowing us to give each dog plenty of attention and supervision. This setup works best for dogs who: • are under about 20 lbs • are comfortable around other small dogs • are house trained • can relax calmly in a pen or crate if needed A meet-and-greet is required before first bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. We look forward to welcoming your pup to Moonbabies Little Lodge — where little dogs have big fun. Caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life! Guest dogs join our calm daily small-dog household routine with supervised backyard playtime, indoor relaxation, naps, cuddles, and social interaction throughout the day. I keep my guest list intentionally small so each dog receives close supervision and personal attention in a comfortable home environment. Moonbabies Little Lodge is designed specifically for friendly small dogs. Dogs enjoy supervised play in a secure fenced backyard and are introduced gradually to maintain a calm group dynamic. Guest dogs are monitored closely and separated if needed for rest, meals, or quiet time. Overnight, dogs sleep safely in cozy individual pens with their own bedding, food, and water.

He's receiving the attention from Kathleen, her dogs and the freedom to run and play in her home, as well as her fenced in back yard which we don't have at our home.

The way I care for pets in my home or a client's home depends on the specific service being provided. Here are a few scenarios: In the client's home: Pet Sitting: When providing pet sitting services at a client's home, I make sure to replicate the pet's daily routine as closely as possible.

I also offer companionship and affection to help reduce any separation anxiety they may experience. Drop-in Visits: During drop-in visits, I visit the client's home at scheduled times to check on their pets. I ensure they have food and water, clean litter boxes, let dogs out for bathroom breaks, and spend quality time with them, offering play and affection. Dog Walking: For dog walking services, I take the dogs on stimulating walks to provide exercise, mental stimulation, and an opportunity for bathroom breaks. I follow any instructions regarding route preferences, leash handling, or specific behavioral considerations. Regardless of the service provided, the well-being, safety, and happiness of the pets are my top priorities. I strive to create a comfortable and nurturing environment, maintain their regular routines, and shower them with love and attention, just as their owners would.

About: For most of my life I have owned a dog and for all of my life I have loved dogs! As I kid, I helped care for my family dog, Dexter, until he was 17 years old. Currently, my wife and I have a 28 lb. Beagle/Lab mix Riley. She's such a joy in our lives. I know how important your dog is to you, so I will care for yours like she/he is mine, with lots of love, playtime, walks and great care. Now that I’m a stay-at-home dad I have so much more time to spend with Riley and you’re dog, too! From young puppies to seniors, I have cared for a wide range of sizes, needs, and breeds. Each dog requires special care and I am here to provide just that. I am willing to make most requests and special accommodations. Ask and I will let you know if I can meet your needs. In addition to walking and visiting with your dog, communication and updates are important services that I provide. When I am away from my pet, I want to know she's okay and receiving the best care. I'll send as many or as little photos of your fur baby as you'd like, so you can confidently know that she/he is being take care of; the photos will also give you a little smile to get you through the day. We also have a 9 year old cat, Moby. He keeps to himself and his cat tree on most days, but we occasionally receive some lap visits from him.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for 5 years. I’m experienced with pets of all kinds. Newborn and elderly pets, healthy and sick pets, small and large pets. I’m used to dogs who are untrained and can handle pets on the wild side. I’m a full time student at UMKC, and have classes two days a week. The longest stretch of time the pets would be alone would be about three to four hours. My schedule is flexible other than my class times, and can accommodate your pets needs. My services offer taking care of your pets in their homes, so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I can fit my schedule around your pet, letting them stick to their normal routines.
About: i've lived and cared for all kinds of dogs and cats. young, old, small, and big, it doesn't matter, the critter will be loved and cared for no matter what i currently don't have any other job so i am most normally always available to help take care of your fur baby's!! and more than happy to do just so. i take very great care of all four pets in my home. they all get fed a certain amount of food and proper exercise along side some enrichment fun time!
About: I work in nursing and I love animals just as I love people I’ve been taking care of animals often on for the past six years. I’ve been in nursing for 10. I love spending time with animals especially my fur babies. I work overnights two days a week in a hospital, so I’m very flexible. It helps because I make my own schedule and I have my schedule out in advance. i also love going on trial walks and dog parks to let the fur babies run off that energy and have fun . I try to stick to a routine and keep them on schedule, of course show them love and affection as well. I keep them safe by being aware of my surroundings, and just interacting with them
About: As an ER vet med worker, I understand that pets deserve to be treated with care and compassion. I have worked in the field for over 4 years and have experience with an array of behaviors and sizes. I own a german shepherd who is quite reactive, so I have special interests in caring for reactive and hard to handle pets. I do german style training with my own dog, and love to focus on obedience training. I am comfortable giving a variety of medications as needed and providing the best care for your fur babies. I work at an emergency veterinary hospital, so I do pet sitting on the side. I am familiar with the different lifestyle needs for each pet and willing to accommodate and provide:) Being a veterinary worker and student, I am very knowledgeable on pet care, illnesses, and many other aspects. I have cared for many pets in critical situations. I have a true passion for ensuring the best care for pets- physically and mentally!
“Deedee walks my dog 4 days a week when I’m at work. She is very reliable and flexible with my changing schedule! She also is very responsive and great at communication. Always sending me pictures too! Definitely book her for your next pet sitting needs!”
About: I am blessed with a sweet boy of my own and have had dogs in the house growing up. I have always had a natural touch with animals. For instance, my neighbor has a Saint Bernard who is not sure of humans in general but especially human males, however this dog becomes a giant puppy when I come around. I am a full time student doing school online so pet care can be done anytime in the mornings and afternoons and on any day except for Sundays. I have a fenced in yard at home, though I keep a watchful eye on my dog when he is outside. While inside, I keep anything that might catch his eye out of reach, and make sure he is always properly entertained. This happens to be easy for my dog since he loves antlers to chew on.

“Lona and Alan were great with my 110 lb St Bernard mix Ralph, and I have nothing but the nicest things to say about how they treated him. I received pictures throughout the entire week and felt like I was right there with him. I knew that he was in good hands at all times!”
“John & Rachel were amazing! Our dog was very happy with them and got along well with their dog. They sent several photos and updates and were quick to reach out with concerns. We will definitely use them again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was just 7 years old. My passion is caring for others. I know how to work with dogs with emotional and behavioral issues. I know how to handle dogs even big dogs that pull on the leash. I can help keep training consistent. I run a home daycare and help care for my mom and homeschool my autistic 16 yo son. So I have a lot of time, room and love to give your doggies. I do have a dog and 2 cats of my own that don't get along so I have to switch out their living room social time and will ensure your animals has some social time as well. I am able to care for 3 more dogs at a time. I have a large basement with an unfinished room that I put a baby gate up for the door and I have 2 kennels. If I have 3 dogs at once I will rotate the dogs out to make sure that one does not have to stay in a kennel too long. I will ensure your doggy always has food and water available and frequent bathroom breaks with plenty of love and social time. I have a semi big yard with a 20 foot tie down lead to ensure your dog has enough room to run around but won't get away. I also have a small plastic kiddie pool I fill up for the doggies to get in and enjoy!
“This was our fist time boarding our dogs. They did great and loved Joseph. He made them feel comfortable right away. They came back happy and tired. Would definitely recommend Joseph.”
“Taylor was great! Extremely happy with our experience with her. Sent frequent updates/photos and our dog seemed to really enjoy his time at her house. 10 out of 10 would recommend”
“Dominic and his team at home took great care of Maddie. She came home worn out from all the playing with the other dogs. They have a great yard for outdoor playtime and plenty of beds all around (and a lap or two).”
“Laurie was a phenomenal pet sitter for our little dog Mona. I messaged her out of the blue to see if she'd be willing to meet us at our wedding venue to get photos with Mona and then take her overnight. She was perfectly on time for everything and flexible for us with our photos and absolutely spoiled Mona for her overnight stay - including a little pup cup pit stop for being so good in our photos. She was so communicative with us before, during, and after the event and put together a custom package of her services to fit our more unique request. Thank you, Laurie!”
“We left our dog for a pretty long stay with Seth and she did great. We appreciated the updates and check-ins along the way. She came home healthy and appropriately tired!”
“Rocio was great! She sent me daily updates and really loved on my pups! My pups loved her yard and we appreciated her so much! My pups will be back soon! Thank you again Rocio!!”
