“Robin was SO wonderful. I would trust her with my babies again any day! She was very open, caring, and treated my kitties as they were her own! She left the most detailed notes (can see the nurse shining through haha). She not only made sure my cats were well, had some play, were fed/watered, & were clean/brushed, but also she made sure they didn’t destroy my apartment & their boxes & pee pads stayed fresh. She even took the trash out and brought my old lady cat some senior food 😭😭 SOOO SWEET! Everything went smoothly as far as the booking, planning, meet & greet, etc. I missed my babies, but I did not stress about them once while gone! Thank you so much Robin!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my entire life. I’ve always enjoyed their personalities more than any other animal.

“We cannot say enough good about Gaby and Harrison's care of our four doggos! They readily agreed to help us out over a long weekend with very little notice. They provided doggy daycare with pick up and drop off service. They were absolutely life savers and did a great job with our doggos... caring for them as if they were their own. We look forward to booking with them again on the future.”

About: Are you looking for a place your pet will love to visit, look no further. Your dog will be treated as family while in our care. We have a lot of laps to provide attention and love. We will will walk your dog and play with him/ her daily. Our family has been dog-sitting for many years. We love having extra dogs here. Your dogs will get personal attention and daily walks. We are home most of the day. I've had the privilege of having dogs (and other pets) all my life. Currently we have 3 small dogs. We love having pets in our lives, and they are fun to have around. The children in this house are dog lovers, and they can't wait to help out! Our pets are part of our family and spend time with us whether we are lounging around or playing outside. We have a quiet neighborhood we can walk your dogs around. We have plenty of room for them to play. I hope you will choose our family to be your dog's home away from home. With our range of age in our family, often there is someone home to attend to your dog. During the summers, we have even more flexibly and more of us regularly at home. This gives us regular opportunities for walks and potty breaks.
About: I have had pets all my life from dogs and cats to gerbils, hamsters and fish. Even as a young child I was primarily responsible for most of the routine daily pet care. I'm a trained CNA with applicable caregiving skills. I also have extensive experience as a shelter volunteer having walked the dog and played with them as well as socializing the cats. I'm currently self employed as a home care aide and wish to take care of animals in between assignments or during days off. I do not have any responsibilities that would interfere with me taking care of your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a yard stake. I live in a townhouse with an open grass backyard. I regularly take my dog to The Liberty, MO Stockdale dog park and can take yours there too if that's your preference. If you wish I can walk your dog as many times per day as you prefer. My neighborhood has paved sidewalks and walking paths that I routinely use to walk my dog daily. I have one cat and one dog and each get along with other cats and dogs very well but should there be any unforeseen issue, I can put your pet in my spare bedroom. I also own a wire dog crate for large dogs. I can crate your pet in your home or my home if you wish me to. I will take care of him or her in whichever way you prefer. I do not crate my dog but I did as a puppy to facilitate his potty training. My dog sleeps with me at night as does my cat sometimes. Both are friendly and well socialized but again, I can put either in a spare room or your pet if necessary. Both my pets are up to date on their vaccinations and they get a monthly pill for flea and tick prevention. I can do everything from long or short walks, taking them outside for potty breaks, administering food or medicine, playtime, etc.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our fur baby. This was our first time leaving our girl with someone we didn’t know but Alex answered all our questions and we felt more than comfortable leaving her for the day. We loved getting videos of her playing and having a good time with all her new friends. If in the KC area again, we would definitely take her back!”
About: One of the things that sets me apart is my firsthand experience caring for high-energy, intelligent breeds. I have two Huskies and a Samoyed, so I’m very familiar with the exercise, structure, and attention these dogs need to thrive. I understand that active breeds aren’t just looking for a quick potty break—they need engagement, mental stimulation, and plenty of activity. Because I care for three dogs every day, I’m comfortable managing multiple pets, maintaining routines, and recognizing when a dog needs extra attention or a little more space. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care based on their personality and your preferences. I’m dependable, organized, and know how important communication is when you’re away from your pet. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and being treated like one of my own. My goal is simple: to provide the same level of care, patience, and attention that I give my own Huskies and Samoyed every single day. Pet care is my full time focus, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, and walks on both weekdays and weekends, and I can accommodate early mornings, evenings, and many last-minute requests. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet will be welcomed into a home with years of experience caring for active, large-breed dogs. I currently have two Huskies and a Samoyed, so I’m comfortable with high-energy dogs, different personalities, and maintaining consistent routines. I have a securely fenced yard, closely supervise all playtime, and can separate dogs if needed to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special care requests, treating every dog like one of my own.
“Nathan was great! Quick to respond and took our little guy for daycare on VERY short notice. No communication issues and we would definitely trust him to pet sit for us again.”
About: I’ve had dogs from a young age. Staying with me, they will get attention, love, play time and cuddles. They will also get to play with my dog Lexi. I work from home full time so I’m always here. I’m able to go outside and play with your pups or give them extra attention. I have a fenced in yard with locks on my gates. I have a doggie door and the back door is always open. I have a 5 year old pup that is very calming and caring. She has been great with other dogs. She is very nurturing and always makes sure those in her space are safe. I have a couple of stories I can provide about her. I am very hands on and constantly checking on my girl and will do the same for your furbaby. Safety is very important to me, not only for your furbaby but for myself and my furbaby as well.

As a former collegiate softball player, I maintain excellent physical fitness, enabling me to keep up with your dogs throughout the day effortlessly. If you have any further inquiries, please don't hesitate to contact me. As someone who works from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. With the flexibility of my schedule, I have the privilege of being available for your pets throughout the day. This means I can provide them with the attention, care, and companionship they need. Whether it's feeding, exercise, playtime, or administering any necessary medications, I can be there to tend to their needs promptly. Additionally, I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine for pets, so I ensure that their feeding and exercise schedules align with their usual habits. Rest assured, your furry companions will receive dedicated care and supervision, as I am always present and ready to meet their needs. 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. This includes feeding them according to their usual schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs for walks, and engaging in playtime or exercise based on their specific needs. 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: 🐾Please note that meet and greets are required for all my services! Me and my boyfriend both work full time jobs so your pets will be alone for a few hours depending on your services you schedule with me. Also note if you book for a boarding stay you will have to provide a crate if your dog stays in a crate while your gone durning the day or overnight!🐾 I have taken care of all breed and sizes of dogs for a few years now. All my family and family friends have trusted me with their fur babies. I go to their homes or I take their dogs home with me depending on how they get along with my dogs. I have fed, played, and bathed dogs. I also love of them as if they are my own dogs. Not only do I care for dogs but I can care for all other four legged animals as well! Depending on the day if I work your pet will get 1 walk and plenty of outside time! If I am not working your dog will get 2 walks, hours of outside time and get as much enrichment to help their mental stemalation and energy! Starting in May on Saturdays I typically work at a race track until late, but I will go to your home prior to me going to the track. I have a fenced in yard and live in a nice Kearney neighborhood! We have several nature trails to walk on and a dog park in town! I do have two dogs but both are very friendly with other dogs and up to date on all vaccinations! There is also a vet office 5 minutes down the road that I take my animals to so if there ever is an emergency I will go straight there!

Im currently working from home while studying to be a vet therefore I will be able to provide for all your dogs wants and needs. My dogs are treated better than we treat ourselves😂, they're allowed on the bed, couch and get plenty of belly rubs and playtime all day! Your dogs will get spoiled and loved here!
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old, and my love for them is at the heart of everything I do. As an aspiring animal rights attorney beginning my law school journey, advocating for the well-being of animals is something I’m passionate about both personally and professionally. I believe every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to get to know both you and your pet to provide care that’s tailored to their individual needs. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while treating both you and your home with the utmost respect. I’m proud to have built lasting relationships with my clients. I’ve had 2–3 regular semiannual clients who have trusted me with their pets for over three years, as well as a monthly client who has relied on my care for the past year. I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including: Dogs: Shih Tzus, Shipoos, Goldendoodles, English Mastiffs, Great Pyrenees, Pit Bulls, mixed breeds, and French Bulldogs. Cats: Himalayans, Persians, and Tabbies. In addition to pet sitting, I worked as a dog bather at a professional grooming salon, where I safely handled dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. That experience strengthened my confidence in reading canine behavior and providing calm, patient care, even in unfamiliar situations. For me, pet care is about more than meeting basic needs—it’s about building trust, understanding each pet’s unique personality, and giving owners peace of mind knowing their companions are in caring, capable hands. I’m a student and a part time employee so I ask that you schedule 3 weeks prior to needing my services to allow me time to request time off from my other job. I can easily walk your dog for up to an hour and a half or take them to a dog park outside to play if you have a fenced in yard as I have a car and I’m a pretty active person.
“Brandi came and walked my dog every day for several weeks while I was waiting for hip replacement. A definite plus for me. She varied her times around weather and the fact that my doggy gets hot if the sun is too much (she came in the evening).”
About: Good afternoon everyone, my name is Alayna and I’ve been working with animals for over 10 years In many different fields even on a farm. I have experience with a variety of animals including, snakes, lizards/ geckos, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, horses, chickens, cats and dogs. I work at a vet office and am very familiar with older pets as well as knowing how to do nail trims and baths. A couple good reasons I stand out from everyone else is that I have experience administering medicine to animals, especially cats, because I’ve been fostering them for about 5 years and I also worked at a vet hospital as a kennel attendant meaning I’ve been around all sizes of dogs plus I’m pretty great at giving baths. Another reason is that I’ve actually owned all the animals I have listed here so I have plenty of experience. My schedule is a bit complicated working full time as a vet assistant. I’m always available Friday-Saturday but other days is a bit difficult. Regardless though I’ll always find time the take care of your fur baby needs. Rather it’s a last minute trip your going on or a family emergency, your pets health and well-being is safe with me! When it comes to animal safety I’m all ears, especially when there’s more then one animal lose in the house. I take advice from the owners on how they’d like the animal to be kept such as if they wish to keep their pet in a room instead of free roam. When taking the animal outside, I will always be outside with them so no accidents are to happen. Before leaving the house, I always make sure to pick up or move anything the animal could reach they aren’t suppose to have and put it in a high or closed off area.

I will love your dog as much as you do and will treat them like my own. I am respectful and responsible with any of your personal needs or wants when it comes you and your four legged friends. Please let me care for your pet while you are gone and trust that I will take good care of them. I am home full time with the exception of personal outings and running errands. I will be able to let your pups out for potty breaks, go for walks and have plenty of time to play. I make sure that a leash is always attached before opening a door to take your dog for a walk unless fenced in. We currently don’t have a fence, but will hopefully soon. We have two friendly dogs.
About: I rescued my first pet (cat) and spoiled my second (dog). Have fun playing fetch and taking long walks, and love to hang out with cats too. I have just recently moved back to Missouri from Bozeman, Montana and am always looking to stay busy with side jobs on my time off. I can easily crate dogs (only if asked or necessary) in a client’s home. I can recognize different techniques to use on differently trained animals.
About: I have grown up loving animals and taking care of family pets, and my own pets. I have dog sat for friends on occasion. I have a big heart and love to care for little fur babies. I personally have 2 dogs and 3 cats and 3 lizards, and my family just keeps growing. I have open availability and can come and care for your animals at most times! My schedule is currently open for boarding, sitting, walking and drop ins. I unfortunately will only board other males under certain circumstances. Our male dog gets a little territorial when it comes to males but not with females. But, still reach out and we can talk about it! My husband and I moved into a house recently with a large backyard which our dogs are in love with. We take our dogs on walks every day and love to play and engage with them.
