About: Hello!! My name is Maisy. I have worked in various different animal related jobs for the last 5 years, I worked at a doggie daycare/boarding facility and I currently am a dog trainer. I have experience with both puppies and elderly dog as well as cats, reptiles, birds, and farm animals. I also am open to limited contact boarding for people reacting dogs and can do crate rotation for dog reactive dogs away from mine. I work in the evenings 4 days a week so I spend the mornings/afternoons out playing with the pups then they take naps in kennels while I’m at work and we play some more when I get home. I also can move my dogs kennels out of the “dog room” and your dog can just stay in there instead of a kennel if they are more comfortable that way. I have 5 dogs that are very active and friendly. I have a fenced in yard the dogs love to run around in and inside we have lots of toys and comfy places to take naps (which will be put up if there are problems). If I’m not at home or at night all dogs will be kenneled for safety.

About: I've had pets since I can remember, I have care for my puppies since they were just weeks old. I've had a pug and a husky, and now a lab mix pup. I love doggies most of all and I know they will have a great time at my place. Thia is my full time job, so I have plenty of time to play with your pup, take care of them and make them feel loved while away from home. I have a two year old doggie that can play with yours and we have a fenced backyard ready for zoomies as well as plenty of toys and treats.

“Bobby has really enjoyed his walks with Hannah! Hannah has been unfazed by his leash aggression. Clear and responsive communication. We appreciate her help and look forward to rebooking!”

“Nadia was absolutely amazing. She was patient with me while booking as I had some questions. She did not hesitate to video chat and help reassure me everything would be fine with my concerns. When she actually came to walk Lumi she brought her doggy too which made my puppy feel a lot better. Nadia sent pictures, updates, and any information that would make me feel like Lumi was safe and had a great time. She also helped Lumi learn new tips during his walk. You can tell Nadia has experience with dogs of many ages. I’ll definitely be using Nadia again in the future when I need help and if you’re reading this you should not hesitate to book her for your doggy needs!”

“Krystal has been walking Smokey for a couple of months now. He really likes her and seems to have fun with her. She is very friendly and always on time. I’m going to hate to see her leave.”

About: I raised a well-behaved and social husky/shepherd who is able to walk/run “off leash” and follow basic commands. I grew up with cats and dogs, and routinely watch the pets of family and friends; mini aussiepoodle, shitzus, boxers, terriers, other pets of varying sizes. My availability is wide open! Finishing school, and starting healthcare job in August. Looking forward to filling summer time with reading, running/cycling, and caring for your pets while you’re at work or on vacation! I am very good at following pet owners’ wishes when it comes to caring for their pets; mental stimulation with playtime, going on walks (or runs), making sure pets are provided food and water, and locking up the home afterward.

About: Dogs and cats have always been part of my world, and I’ve always connected with them deeper than most! Coming into adulthood, my first fur baby was “adopted” from my grandparents. Since then, I’ve adopted two fur babies, become a fur step mama and fostered several others! Caring for your pets the way I care for my own is my passion and a non-negotiable in my work. My current clients often refer to me as “Aunt Nae” when it comes to their fur babies, THAT is how much I mean to them and them to me! The only job I have is remote, and as necessary! So I am able to be around with and for your pets 24/7. One of my standard practices is to only leave your pet(s) for 4 hours or less, unless previously given the pet parents permission. Your pets will be treated as my own would, while following your house rules! If they’re allowed on furniture, I’ll snuggle them on the couch and in the bed! If they’re not, I respect that too! Used to getting up and walking at 5am? I’ll keep that routine! My goal is to maintain their “normal” while you are away and to be the best stand in “auntie” or caregiver for them.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs while growing up and always had to take care of them! My neighbors always could count on me to help take care of their pets! I am able to walk, feed, bathe and with direction of course I can give your pets medicine if needed! I am in Manhattan/Topeka and I am available! I’m flexible with hours and besides working out every other day for an hour I will be available at any time! At my clients home I will not only be taking care of your pets and giving them love I can also keep the place clean and keep plants watered. At my last pet sitting job I took the dog (115 pounds) on daily walks and was able to cuddle and play with both the dog and the cat! I also stayed the night at the last gig because the dog had separation anxiety. I work well with any animals!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old and have loved them as one of my children. My family and I are looking for a great opportunity to love and care for your pets. We have a fenced in backyard and we love to play and walk with dogs. My wife and I work Monday through Friday, but are available to care for pets in the evenings, but on the weekends are available to board and care for pets the entire weekend. We have a privacy fence with a big back yard with plenty of space for pets to run and play. We also have a safe and big home in a safe neighborhood for walks.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have always loved being around animals. I have experience walking dogs and have also done overnight pet sitting for both dogs and cats from time to time. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like my own—with love, attention, and care. I’m comfortable and confident with dogs of all kinds—big or small, shy or energetic—and always prioritize their safety and happiness. I’m a student-athlete at Washburn and also work part-time, but I always make time for pet care because I truly enjoy it. My schedule is flexible around classes and work, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m great at planning ahead and will always make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any instructions carefully, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets feel loved and secure. I take time to build trust with each animal and always respect their routine and space.

“Responded quickly and on short notice. Willing to take a night walk. Super professional and friendly.”

About: A dog has always been in my house growing up, except when I moved to lawrence to go to school/work. I learned to take care of dogs since I could walk. My first dog was a German Shepard. I learned how to brush, clean, feed, and exercise around 6 years old and have loved dogs ever since. From middle school until now I had a side gig of watching extended family/ friends dogs for the weekends, so I have worked with all types of dogs such as pit bulls, labs, Rottweilers, shorthairs, boxers, huskies, and I also have experience with small dog breeds such as pugs, terrors, mini poodles, and chihuahuas. So don’t worry about what breed of dog you have I am open to all kinds!

About: I've been blessed to help care for pets of all kinds since I was little moving around and many relatives work in pet care so I've learned there is no animal too difficult. From energetic to needy, I am excited for the opportunity to share some love. August 18th I begin my senior semester at Washburn majoring in political science as well as be on the Debate team. I volunteer at the Topeka Rescue Mission and Loud Light's community action team in my free time. I can ensure availability on Tuesday, Thur-Sun, but it never hurts to reach out for help on Wed and Mon because I can often make it work. With my experience in house sitting I have never had a negative encounter. Not only have my clients been incredibly kind, they have also been very helpful and communicated perfectly what I need to do to care best. I am a very tidy individual but my best quality that my compassion is boundless. I am happy to take on any responsibility while an individual's pet is under my care.

About: I love dogs. You can expect me to love and care for your dog while you are out. I will play with your dogs and take care of thier needs while you are away. I used to Foster dogs. I work as a security officer. I work Saturday through Tuesday. Monday and Tuesday are nights but can come before I go to work and I have 3 days off in the row that I will be able to come at anytime. I love dogs and like I said I work but would love to work with dogs on my free and days off that I have. It will help with extra money and I will get to love and show affection to dogs as well. I am currently not working at the moment so I have a pretty open availability at the moment. When that changes I will update it on here. I will care for my clients dog like I would my own. I will make sure to give them attention and take them out and play with them take them for walks. I would notify you if something were to happen or if I notice the animal was acting off. I give my dog lots of attention and love we cuddle with each other.

“Thank you! Very patient with an anxious dog!”

About: I have had my own personal dogs for a little over a year. But I have been pet sitting for longer than that. I am able to work on training that has been set in place and I am able to help care for senior dogs. I have had cats my entire life so I am capable of cleaning out litter boxes and playing with the cats with toys. I am currently working part time as a kitchen assistant so I am only available at certain times during the week. Also there are some days where I will have to work full time and sometimes my schedule changes the day of. I would try to keep any previous schedule that had been set for the client’s pets. I would walk and play with them as necessary. It would be my goal to make this easy on both the owners and the pets.

About: I have a large breed dog myself who can and does play fetch all day long so that’s not a problem for me whether it be playing fetch or going on three walks a day I’ve got it. I am currently working part time so I shouldn’t have any issues fitting these visits into my schedule! I only work 4 hour shifts as well so your pet should never have to wait too long before I can come back! I do not offer to bring pets to my home but I will happily follow any rules given and will always keep your pet on a secure leash.

About: Let me love your fur kiddos when you’re not able to! A little about me; I’ve worked in vet clinics, animal shelters/rescues, dog boarding facilities, and I am a retired dog groomer. I’ve fostered and cared for young and seniors. I’m educated in proper and safe handling. I have 3 cats and 3 dogs currently, all of which my husband and I rescued. I have dedicated most of my life to animal welfare. I am quite flexible and free most days. I prefer to stay within 10 miles of my home, in Auburn, if I am needed during the day, outside of my home. ***I only host 1 family at a time-unless, for example, the pets are familiar with another family wanting to board at the time same time. ***Maximum stay of 2 weeks (as my own furry kiddos need breaks) ***I require a meet and greet and possibly a trial night if stay is over 1 week, situations may vary ***I strongly suggest meet and greets if you are a new client, or if you’re not sure if your dog exhibits signs of separation anxiety Must be able to be crated/be left alone in a room for periods throughout the day. (Spacious room with couches and a bed just for them!)- I have a separate floor of my house for which I keep the furry kiddos I care for. Two of my rescues don’t do well with others, but I am able to safely separate and still give adequate care and attention, however, if your dog has separation anxiety, I am not the best fit for your kiddo, as I do have 3 dogs of my own i have to tend to and can not have them Cohabitate, unfortunately. I have a large fenced in back yard, as well as 12 acres to exercise. I can do daily let-outs, feeding, etc at your home, and follow the instructions provided. The area your kiddos stay in also has a nanny cam so I can constantly keep an eye on them.
