“I highly recommend Kay! My dog just spent a week with her and she came back so happy and energized, I could tell she had a great time. I really appreciated the periodic check-ins and pictures she sent while I was away. It’s always hard leaving your pet but at least with Kay you’ll be confident they’re in good hands.”

About: As a dedicated dog owner myself and longtime resident of Grand Island, I treat every pet with the same love and patience I give my own. I am familiar with our local neighborhoods and parks and I am committed to being a dependable resource for those who need a trustworthy professional to step in while they are away. Because I work from home full-time, your pet becomes my ‘co-worker’ for the day! My schedule allows me to provide consistent companionship, regular potty breaks, and playtime. My routine is very stable, which is perfect for dogs who get anxious when left alone. I am primarily available for weekday boarding and can often accommodate weekend stays with advance notice. Your pup will enjoy a calm, professional home environment where they are never just an afterthought. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I have a fenced in backyard where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and playtime throughout the day. Because I work from home, I provide a supervised environment with a consistent routine of potty breaks, mid-day stretches, and plenty of companionship. I apply the same attention to detail mentioned when caring for pets in their homes.

About: Throughout the years we have watched family and friends fur babies while they are gone on their trips. I have grown up with animals my whole life. We are on a small average with animals. Daily choring is a must. I work full time during the week, but weekends are free to be able to care for your lovely pets We live on an acreage that has no fenced in yard. Lots of room to roam under supervision. We have an extra kennel if needed to kennel during the night time.

“Kendra provided me updates throughout Charlie's stay at her house. It sounded like he had a good time with her dog and it was a much better experience than him staying at a kennel in town. Couldn't be happier that he had an actual house to stay at while we were gone.”

I’ve also rescued several dogs over the years and have volunteered for several shelters around KC. I’m an avid dog lover who will spoil your babies just like you do! I currently have an open schedule due to being recently laid off. Your pup will get full attention! I can also travel outside of the city to meet your needs. Extremely attentive and loving and will treat your dog like my own. Due to my doggy daycare and boarding experience, I also know the importance of following the owners directions on how they want their pets cared for.

About: I have had pets and cared for animals for 15+ years. Have my own pet that travels with me almost every where I go. House is pet safe. I farm and work in rentals. During the winter I have more time care for pets. I work in my office out of my own house during the winter I have my own pet, a small Australian Shepard. She is house broke. At my own home I take pets out by leash as I don’t have a fenced in yard yet. Looking to make money by boarding to fence in back yard for better service.

About: If I could take care and pet all the kitties in the world, I would!! I stop on my walks just to talk to or even pet a kitty if it comes up to me! I’ve grown up with cats my whole life! I currently have 3 right now! 1 longhair and 2 Mainecoons!

About: Cats deserve more than basic care—expect play, love, and attention so they stay happy, healthy, and purring until you return! Cats are the best.

“Crystal did great with our 3 pups! We knew they were well taken care of when we were gone!”

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have been caring for them for over 8 years. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to check in, feed, scoop litter, and spend quality time with their cats. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I provide the right balance of play, comfort, and gentle care. From energetic kittens to senior cats, I treat every furry friend like my own.

About: Growing up we always had family pets. Most of them were rescues. As an adult I have had my own dogs until I loss my babies a year ago. I’m a semi retired and only work 3 to 4 hours a day. I would love to have fur babies to take care and fill my days. I recently started driving a school bus so I do have to work around drop off and pick up of your pet. School bus routes starts at 6:45 and I’m done at 8:30 in the afternoon. I start at 2 o’clock and I’m home by 4 o’clock.. I have a fenced in backyard. I currently don’t have any babies of my own . I would really like a chance to love your baby.

“This was the best experience and Stacie was accommodating and a fantastic person to leave my dog with. He came home happy and tired. I would absolutely recommend”

About: I’ve grown up with all types and ages of animals. I’ve taken care of new born pups to senior pups. I’ve been the trust worthy dog and cat sitter for all of my friends and family since I was a kid. Growing up I had breeds from a mastiff to a tea cup yorkie so I’m comfortable with any size dog. I have lots of experience with animals. I have experience with scared, reactive and aggressive dogs so l know how to handle those situations. I also own a special needs cat myself there if your furry friend needs special attention I am equipped to handle them. I’m currently working part time and am in nursing school. My availability changes from day to day day because of classes so feel free to reach out! While watching your pet, I can take them for a walk in the park, play with them in your backyard yard, give medications if needed, and let them in and out as much as needed

About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember. I have had my dog and cat for over 10+ years and they are living their golden years in comfort and full of love! My dog requires medication three times a day, so if you have a pup with high needs I'm happy to help! I've volunteered for animal shelters and rescues. In 2023, I fostered 5 dogs and they were all adopted! They all came with unique personalities, behaviors, and challenges. I was able to teach them new behaviors, minimize the bad behaviors, and give them the love they deserved. Monday through Friday, I work full time from home from 8AM-5PM Therefore, on those days I am available after 5PM; Weekends I'm available any time! Keeping your pet comfortable and at ease is what's most important to me! I'm happy to do what we need to do to accomplish that while they are in my care.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was about 8 years old. I have always had at least 2 dogs and a cat in the house growing up. Since I joined the military I also helped my friends and coworkers with their pets when they were away. I have a flexible schedule, I work full-time but can work from home most days. I am able to care for pets easily throughout the day. I currently have one dog, bernedoodle, he is the most spoiled pup there is. We have gone through many obedience classes together so I have knowledge and experience on how to properly walk and care for a dog. I love any opportunity I have to meet and care for any new animals. I love going on walks and playing with dogs and cats to keep them entertained! I am currently working at a flexible job, so I can be readily available to attend to your pet's needs and look after your fur baby for the majority of the day! I treat your home and your dog like I would my own! I make sure they have plenty of water, have been fed, time to potty, and plenty of play time as well! They won't be bored with me!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds for over 7 years. Friends, family, and neighbors rely on me to walk, feed, and give their pets plenty of love and attention. I’m comfortable with playful puppies, calm companions, and senior dogs needing gentle care. Your furry family member will always be safe, happy, and well cared for with me. I’m available for pet care after 10am, seven days a week. With advance notice, I can start earlier if needed. Overnight stays are also an option for families who prefer round-the-clock care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, caring environment where they’ll feel secure, loved, and well cared for whether I’m in your home or mine.
