Dog Sitting Valley

About: I love dogs and cats. I have had them my whole life! My labrador just passed away so I am looking for some pet interaction! I miss her dearly. I have taken care of both dogs and cats with special needs, behavioral issues, and senior pets. I love taking both on walks, car rides, park trips, etc. whatever they like to do! Currently working a hybrid job so I can work from home if needed. I’m more of a home body so I will have plenty of chill time with your fur babies. I also like going on outdoor adventures like walks and dog parks weather permitting. At home I have a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. There is one friendly dog and one solitary but other pet friendly senior cat. Both can be secluded to the upstairs if needed.

“Jessica is so great!! My puppy is 8 months old and is going through a new fear period. Jessica was so great and worked with us and him until he got comfortable! I’m a nurse so my schedule is very inconsistent so Jessica being super flexible is awesome! She also saved us one day when my roommates flight got delayed and went over to let our pup out. She does puzzles and crafts with him! I would highly recommend!!”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter/house sitter (3+ yrs) who is passionate about making pets feel safe and comfortable when I’m watching them! 🤗🐶 I am also an active person, so long walks (5+ miles), farm animal needs, or pet medical needs are totally okay with me. I take pride in being able to make my furry friends feel special and enriched during my time with them, so I frequently have clients tell me that their fur babies miss me when I leave! I am also a neat person who is up for completing any household tasks/chores while I’m watching your space. Outside of pet sitting, I have am a masters student (MPP) and researcher, which means I am in the office only occasionally: Mon-Thur, 10am-4pm (~6hrs) Federal Holidays I am off of work. I have a flexible schedule which allows me to come home for a quick potty break in the middle of the day! I am a very responsible, clean, and honest person who prioritizes communication and safety when I am watching your fur babies or your home. I understand the trust that my clients give me to watch over their homes and pets is very very sacred, and I am honored to give my clients the best possible experience. I frequently send updates (i.e. pictures/videos of my activities with the pets, weather reports if there are storms, etc.). I am also available by phone 24/7 for clients to reach out. I am flexible and open to completing household tasks (i.e. watering plants, cleaning, etc.) if need be.

About: I'm a former kennel tech/animal Care worker from petland i have had multiple dogs and pets of various kinds. I have volunteered at my local animal shelter Joplin humane society and local dog grooming and boarding business golden paw pet resort. I have had my fair share of taking care of my own as well as others such as family and friend's dogs. Animals are my passion. I simply love to spend time with them,bond,and help them learn along the way. They are companions and very intelligent creatures. I never turn a pet away. I have experience in house sitting and dog during family and friends dogs/animals.i have two cats of my own at the moment and when I'm not starting with your animal my husband will always be there.

About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a farm, caring for animals was just a part of everyday life, and that’s where my love for them really began. From feeding and cleaning up after them to making sure they were healthy and happy, I learned early on that every animal deserves patience, kindness, and lots of love. That passion led me to become a Licensed Veterinary Technician. My education gave me a deeper understanding of animal health, behavior, and how to care for pets with different needs, whether they’re playful puppies, curious kittens, or senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, they’re family. That’s why I treat every pet like they’re my own—with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they enjoy them!). My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind when you’re away. Pet care has always been a natural part of my everyday life. I currently work part-time as a housekeeper, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s stopping by for a walk, spending quality time playing, keeping up with feeding schedules, or staying overnight, I truly enjoy being there for each pet. I love getting to know every animal’s unique personality, and I make it a priority to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. For me, caring for pets never feels like work, it’s something I genuinely look forward to every day. When I’m caring for your pet in your home my biggest goal is to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll stick to their normal routine as closely as possible whether that means feeding them on schedule taking them for walks playing with them or just spending time giving them extra love and attention. I know every pet is different and I enjoy getting to know their unique personality. Some pets want to play the whole time while others are happiest just having someone nearby. I’ll meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel cared for and loved. I also understand that trusting someone in your home is a big deal so I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect that I would my own.

About: I’ve always been surrounded by dogs my whole life. From playing to taking care of them, I deeply enjoy being surrounded by dogs. They truly love like no other I am a local middle school teacher, so my schedule before and after school are very flexible! I am available before 7:30am, or after 4pm on weekdays. Weekends vary. I’d love to get to know the family and home in which I would be sitting to ensure I know the dos and don'ts the pet already has. I treat all pets as if they were my own.

“Lauren was an absolute dream, and even worked with us for the holiday! Thanks, Lauren! We will definitely reach out for future trips!”

About: I’m a proud pet mom to both a dog and a cat, so I understand the unique needs and personalities of each. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and lots of attention. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a routine, I make sure your pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I also offer weekend availability, perfect for those quick getaways! I am a student so I have plenty of time! Specially on weekends. I have my dog and my cat already and they would love to make new friends I just moved to a house and it’s just my husband and I with our cat and dog and they are super friendly with other animals and we all love cuddle time

About: Animals happiness is a fundamental principle that I feel strongly about. This made growing up with and caring for all animals my favorite part of each day! I would love to give your pet you call family a break from their long days of sleeping in. My experience includes living with and pet sitting for dogs of all ages and sizes. Before becoming a pet sitter, I had only owned a cat, but have experienced the joys of all cats personality’s. I’m currently a sophomore in college and have a professional level of experience scheduling around my classes and previously a demanding sport. A part time, high activity, and flexible routine is my cup of tea! My most convenient times are early afternoons and whenever works best for you. I have well rounded experience in feeding pets, cleaning their toilet activities, and taking them on walks and runs. I currently call a black cat, jack Russell terroir, Weimaraner, and chickens my family!

About: I've grown up with always more than one animal in the household, and loving them is second nature. When my family and friends need someone to help take care of the pets, I am always the first option! I have taken care if lots of cats and dogs, but a few fish throughout the years too. I have experience not only with general pet care such as, feeding, walking, playing/enrichment, but also with giving medications. Some dog breeds I have worked with (or lived with) are German Shepards, Yellow Labs, and mutts that are a mix of medium/bigger dogs or small dachshund mixes. And a lot of different cat personalities! The distant and quiet ones who keep to themselves and the ones who need your attention the second you walk through your door! Either way, I have always loved them no matter what, and continue to love them still. I am about to start a part-time job that has me working either from 10-3 or 11-4. I am always willing to wake up early or stay up late because I have the late start time of the work! In my home, my cat never has a missed meal, he has clean and running water 24/7, and a handful of toys available for enrichment! A handheld laser always nearby for sudden play time is anecessity! As for my client's pets, I will always follow instructions step by step and detail by detail, no matter if feeding times includes something silly to get the fur baby to actually eat their food, I will always do it! And I am not the kind of person to just stop in, do what I need to do, and leave. I will make sure the pet is well loved and knows that I am there for them.

About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. From owning multiple dogs myself and taking care of friends and neighbors pets. I am comfortable around big and small and old and young! I am currently a substitute teacher so my schedule changes from week to week! On days that I don’t take a job and am free to come take care of your pet during the day or stop by in the morning/evening. I live in an apartment with my one cat currently. I have lots of toys for him and clean all of his belongings quite often. My services would only offer me coming to you take take care of your furry friends!

My fur family times have included supporting your fur fam member to walk on the lead, minimal pulling; swallow meds with ease; adjust to new spaces like wearing the temporary 'cone' hat or a cast after surgery, and a few more situation specific moments. No size too small or large to be loved, catitudes adored too. I'm a guest speaker and host small Relational Leadership Events for discerningly curious leaders and creatives throughout the U.S. and México. For now, my work makes it difficult to have my own fur family as I have extended stays in various cities and flexible hours. I love walking and supporting furry friends so helping you blends my top loves too! I think of it as Pawsitively Winning for everyone :) Safety is paramount for your furry family member, home and me. Before each walk or playdate, I'll ask about preferences and any recent environment 'yucks' that may impact our experience. After the walk or playdate, I'll share a few 'yummy' moments and if needed the 'yucks' to be aware of. You'll advise me about where to pickup and return your furry sweetie.

About: I have always had dogs. I have trained dogs for years, including hunting dogs. I have helped others with their animals throughout the years as well. I also take care of a farm and their animals from time to time just north of Omaha she would be a reference. I work remotely, so I’m home all the time unless I need to run a quick errand. There is direct access into my apartment, so no need to go through hallways. I will treat them like they’re my own and we walked every day. I have a park here. I also live right next to Lake Zirinsky so taking a walk at the park is easy.
