Pet Sitting in Valley Center

“Darian was amazing with our Maverick! She goes above and beyond just making sure he gets his potty breaks and is fed. She took the time to interact with him and make him feel comfortable while we were away. Darian did a great job of keeping us updated on how Maverick was doing. Wish I could leave a 10 star rating!”

“My 3 spoiled cats, and dog all received excellent care from Kelli while we were on vacation. We really appreciated the pictures and updates from each visit.”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 dogs of my own. Zoey is 10 (that’s where I started counting my experience) and Griffin is 6. I love all kinds of dogs. In college, I did some dog sitting for relatives. I do not own any cats but do not mind looking out for cats as well! I work full time on the week days but available in the evenings to stop in for a walk or to play. I am available on the weekends any time to stop in and love on your furry family member! For boarding, I have a small yard but is fenced in by decorative panels. I am always outside when my dogs are out and I monitor them closely! My dogs enjoy playing with other dogs and your pets would feel right at home for the weekend! At your home, I will follow your guidelines in regards to feeding, walking, medicine, and any other routines you have set for your pets. I want your pet to feel safe and comfortable and you know their routine best. For boarding, I will follow any specific guidelines and your pups routine!

About: For the last 15 years I've been the go to sitter for family, friends, and friend's friends! I love meeting new pets and getting to give them a little vacation of their own. I'm no stranger to medicating animals, and love a good training or play session. So far, I've taken care of geckos, cockatiels, hamsters, various fish, English bulldogs, German Shepards, maltases, golden doodles, pitties, various labs, and more! I am available for over nights with advance notice, but am presently accepting swing-by cares. I am currently working a flexible part-time schedule. Luckily, I live near the highway and have easy access to most of Wichita and surrounding areas! Due to a few fur babies of my own - I am unable to provide care in MY home. However, when in client's home I happily take care of minor chores while providing playtime, walks (when the lovey is a dog of course), and company. With kitties I will always spend a few extra hours company with them. All drop ins are a guaranteed 1 hour visit.

“Jennifer did an awesome job! She made sure our dog was fed, walked & got a bunch of cuddles. She even went above & beyond in cleaning an accident on the carpet & brought out trash can in from the end of the driveway. Oreo gives her four paws up!”

About: My name is Courtney Franklin. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and animals are my favorite thing in the world. I started working at a veterinary clinic when I was 15 years old and continued to work for them off and on for 20 years, and have been a pet sitter for 25 years. I had to step away from Rover for a while due to working at veterinary clinics, my father passing away, and my own health problems. I still pet sat that entire time. I pet sat for many of the veterinary clinic clients that preferred to not board their dogs and also a number of coworkers and friends. I can give you their names and numbers as references anytime. I am happy to be back on Rover and hope to gain more pet parents’ trust and get to spend time with and love your fur babies! I love all animals and enjoy taking care of all of them in the comfort of their own home! I will travel to your home as many times a day as needed. I will let your dogs out, feed your fur babies, give treats, give medications including insulin injections, scoop litter pans, scoop yards, and anything else you need for your pet while you're gone! I will also water your plants, take out the trash and put it at the curb, bring in your mail, clean pet areas, fill bird feeders and baths, and anything else you need at your home while you're gone. I will also run personal errands for you if you need anything done for yourselves while you're out of town. Currently, my husband and I only have one car, so I have to take him to and from work. I also have dogs that I let out over the lunch hour for my regular pet people while they are at work. Otherwise, I can make as many drop ins to your home as needed in between. I will take care of your fur babies in the comfort of their own home. I believe that animals feel the most safe and calm when they are in their own environment. I will take care of any and all of your fur babies needs while I am there. I am fully insured and can give you many references.

“Aurora was great with Pixel! Even in the blistering wind, she played with her outside and communicated well. I would recommend Aurora for any visit needed!”

About: Hi, I’m Abby! Animals have always been a significant part of my life. I started – MyPetFriendsICT – as my very own local pet-sitting and homemade treat company in 2023 to help raise money for my competition dance team and colorguard activities, in addition to allowing me to pay my way for a nine-day educational trip to London & Paris, during my Senior year at Maize South High School. I am on my summer break after finishing my Freshman year at ESU before returning to Emporia for Sophomore year in mid-August, and I am doing all my dog-sitting back in the Wichita area. I am excited to offer my pet care services that ensure your furry friends are well cared for while you are away. My affordable rates already include Rover’s fees, so you know exactly what you’ll pay before you book—making it a win-win for both of us! No care is too short, and no vacation is too long! Whether you need a quick 15-minute drop-in for a potty break, a longer 30-45-minute visit for exercise and companionship, or overnight stays, I’m here to help. With seven+ years of pet-sitting experience across Wichita and Sedgwick County, I look forward to assisting you with your pet-sitting service needs this Summer! Growing up with multiple dogs instilled a deep love for canine companionship. I also have a strong affection for other animals, including cats, birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, and reptiles. Currently, I have three dogs aged 6 to 13, all requiring daily medications, so I understand the importance of providing extra care. I am responsible and detail-oriented. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a bit of special attention. I will provide a loving and nurturing environment for your pets, whether for a day or an extended period. Your furry friends will feel right at home with me, allowing them to stay in the comfort of their own space—there is no need for a kennel! Most importantly, I love animals and can’t wait to meet yours! It's essential to maintain your pets' personalized schedules to help reduce stress and keep them safe, happy, and ready to cuddle when you return home. As a full-time student, I prioritize keeping my class and practice schedule up-to-date alongside my pet-sitting availability, ensuring you know when I’m available well in advance. I strive to be as flexible as your schedule requires. Living on campus, I genuinely enjoy taking quick breaks from my studies to care for your furry family members. Not only is it beneficial for their mental health, but it also brings me joy and relaxation! Your pet's care will always adhere to your requests and instructions! As a full-time college-aged student, I can only care for your pets in your home, but I promise to leave it just as I found it. I have experience staying in clients’ homes overnight for periods of up to several weeks, always ensuring I clean up after myself and your pets. I will care for your pet and keep them as safe as you would. I’ll love them as if they were my own, providing plenty of affection and attention. Additionally, I will follow any training, diet, or other instructions you leave for me. My goal is to make your life easier while prioritizing normalcy and maintaining your pets' routines.

“Savannah did a great job with my two kitties while I was away for a week. Made me very relieved that I had someone I could trust to watch them. 10/10 would use her again!”

About: I have had experience with every age of both dogs and cats from newborn to senior. I've bottle fed puppies and kittens, potty trained them, adopted them out, kept some, raised them through their adult life, and cared for them as seniors. I've also taken in many strays and fosters and nursed them back to health, whether it was some scratches or they just weren't doing good, and found good homes for them. I know how to bottle feed, ween, potty train, groom, give medication, clean/sanitize injuries, and much more. I also volunteer in humane societies so that has given me advice and techniques for helping earn animals trust, especially when they are being boarded in an unknown house. I work from home so I am almost always there, unless I have to run to the store or do some quick errands. If I happen to visit friends or family, go to a sit down restraunt, or do anything else that might take longer, it will never be for more than 2-3 hours. I do not kennel unless necessary or if requested (during feedings, if I have to run somewhere, in emergencies, ect.), so they will have free reign otherwise. If they have a feeding schedule, great, if not, I'll make sure the bowls always full. Fresh water is always available in multiple locations. I don't have a fence so dogs will always be leashed going outside and will be taken whenever they want to or every couple hours. Cats litter boxes are spot cleaned once a day, and switched once a week or when needed if they will be staying for longer. My golden rule is treat others how you want to be treated, and that extends to animals aswell. I don't yell, ignore, or force anything to do something that isn't necessary. Obviously no one wants to take medication, but if they have to, I'll be as quick and careful giving it as I can.

“Could not ask for a more thoughtful and reliable person for my precious dogs!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds and sizes since I was a baby. Neighbors, friends, family, and others have relied on me to care for their dogs in all aspects. I love all kinds of dogs and always have! I’m pretty free anytime during the summer. I can most likely make anything work. With a heads-up I’m sure I can help you with whatever you need! I love walking dogs and dog sitting for people. I have walked dogs for years and many at one time! I’ve also dog sat many times. I’m strong and can handle a dog that pulls. And dogs love me and I can bond to them very easily.

“I cannot say enough great things about Hali. Even though she was only with us for a short time, she gave my pup so much love and attention. Roman loved her and wanted all the pets from her. I would recommend her to all of my family and friends.”

Kenzie D.

About: I’ve helped care for a wide range of animals some being as young as a week old to being over 14 years old. I have loved caring for hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits and the average house cat and dog. I have some free time with college classes being over for the summer and my student worker position that doesn’t require much of my time. So I would love to fill that time doing something I would love. At home I have a friendly and energetic blue heeler that loves to play ball and a senior orange tabby cat that is sweet but on his own time. I love caring and playing with them and any of my family and friends animals.

“Amy did great! Sammie was happy to see her! Thank you for doing what you do!”

Wil T.

“Highly recommend. Took very good care of my dogs. Sent unsolicited pictures of them to let me know how they were doing which made the whole experience even better and put my mind at ease knowing they were in good hands.”
