Personalized care for your dog or cat - La Due

“Shaye was absolutely wonderful! Super responsive and gave us updates throughout the entire stay. My dog got along super well with her sweet pups. They had an absolute blast! I highly recommend Shaye :)”

“Meghan was very accommodating with my senior special needs dog. He needed the comfort of someone's home. Her children were an added bonus because he loves kids. We don't travel often so being able to find a place Woody felt comfortable as well as myself helped relieve the anxiety of traveling. Our drop off and pick up time needed to be flexible and Meghan was very available via text to and work with those times on the fly. If we have to travel again I will feel comfortable leaving Woody with her.”

“I was nervous about leaving our dog for a 9-day stay, when the most we had ever been away from her was for 3 days. But Jenn took wonderful care of our dog, sent daily pictures and updates, and I soon realized our dog was having a vacation of her own. From other dogs to play with, a fenced backyard and doggy door, our dog lived her best life. Thanks Jenn for taking excellent care of Ellie!”

“We book Morgan whenever we can! Morgan is communicative, caring, and always treats my pup as one of her own! We love how happy our pup is at her home!”

“Candice was great! We got photos at least twice/ day; we got videos, and we got multiple updates. I think our dog was sad to leave her family and come home with us. I would absolutely bring Meatball back to her. It is very clear that she loves dogs and takes great care of them. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have had pets my whole life up! I'm a full time stay at home mom with 3 kiddos (2 in school and 1 not in school cause shes a baby!) I am looking to earn a little pocket change while hopefully helping someone out with their fur babies. Most times I will have to come with my baby in her carrier for now, but certain times I may be able to work around that, so please dont hesitate to ask! I am willing to travel as far as Kansas City/Overland Park, Pittsburg, and Joplin/Springfield, or basically within an hour and half for house sitting. As a mom I am not able to stay in your home for house sitting, I could consider pet care inside my home on a case-by-case basis. For daily walks, we will have to agree on a price if its farther than Nevada, El Dorado Springs. I live on a few acres with cats, a dog, chickens, and ducks. I have experience with a lot of different types of animals as well including fish and smaller caged critters. I have experience working with service dogs as well. If you have any questions, please reach out! Im super flexible and would love to be able to help you any way that I can. I am a stay at home mom with 2 of 3 kiddos in school. My schedule is very open. Whatever work you're needing with your animals, please reach out. Animal care in my home will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Animal care in your home will be as requested by you. I typically could not do overnight care as I've got kiddos in school and will most likely have to travel a bit to help you with your animals, but on weekends or breaks I can consider it.

About: In the previous 10+ years, I have been taking care of horses and dogs. I have extensive equine knowledge due to my degree and previous employments. I am comfortable giving both horse and dog medicines of various types. As for dogs, I have done all the training on my own, I’m comfortable with puppies, can handle different temperaments, senior care, and special needs cases. I’m willing to also offer drop in services for equines and other animals. Please message me with any questions you may have! I work from home, so I am around most of the time. If I’m out running errands, it tends to be a couple hours away from home. I have a fenced in yard where the dogs can run and play freely. I also have acreage for long walks. I have two dogs of my own that are very friendly and love friends. I feed my dogs separately from your dogs and am flexible to accommodate your dog

About: I grew up with two dogs and a cat took care of them a lot also, my grandma‘s dog which was a smaller dog. Fast forward I bought two kitties. They’re almost one now and there perfectly healthy and adorable. I’m available Monday thru Friday after 11am anytime after that I’m available to take care or walk your pet in the week. Hope this helps I feed them when they need to be fed and I play with them and pet them and make them feel welcomed . I also give them treats if there good (animal treats ofc)

About: I have 30+ years of responsible pet ownership. I guess I really should say my pets have a combined 25+ years of Jenn ownership. I am a teacher and have a fairly flexible schedule. I have not met a dog that I did not like. I live in a great neighborhood that offers sidewalks or wide streets to allow for walks. I have experience with oral and injectable medications. My dogs eat in the morning and evenings. I do not usually feed my dogs store bought treats as they prefer fresh carrots, green beans, asparagus, and sugar snap peas. While your dog is in my care, I will take care of him/her like they are my own. Your fur babies are in good hands with me! I'm a teacher during the school year. I have a dog door so potty breaks aren't an issue. I feed my personal dogs twice a day. I treat all animals in my care as if they were my own. I don't kennel unless pet parents request it. Animals in my care have free roaming privileges in my home. I'm a retired teacher looking to care for pets full-time. I hope to fill my day with petting, playing, and walking your pets! I have a fenced yard and a pet door so your pups can come and go as they please. I also have 2 pups of my own who can play with and keep yours company. I can easily crate your pups if needed.

“Morgan was great! Very accommodating and easy to work with! Our puppy, Peanut, loved her stays there! We will definitely be using her again in the future!!!”

About: I worked at Summit Pet Care for four years. I worked in the daycare, front desk, and kennels department. I have made valuable relationships with several clients. For those clients I have pet sat for them while they have been out of town. I have also walked many of their pups during a busy for them. I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and the rest of the week make time to exercise my own dog. Along with getting online classes done for UCM.. I care for my pets by always getting them with a clam but happy energy. First thing I always do with any pup is take them outside making sure there are no accidents in the home. If I am just meeting the pup I always allow them time to get used to me and make sure I am a loving person.
