Kendall is a great help. My dogs are a lot less anxious on the days she comes by to walk them. I'm glad she is on this app.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs back home my personal favorite were my wiener dogs. I’ll treat them just like my niece or nephew. I’ve been a house sitter looking after dogs for some of my colleagues and family.I also got a two puppers of my own Just leave the dogs schedule and requirements and I’ll do exactly that. I also have a background in medical training as a hospital corpsman in case of any emergencies. I’m a Veteran going to college so My schedule is pretty flexible these days. I have a pretty good routine with my dogs so extra dogs are no problem. My dogs already have a set schedule, they love to play in the backyard, and love walks and pup cones! My house has plenty of rooms and easy access through the doggy door to the back yard. And a lot of room around the house. It’s a pet loving home, some could say the run the house ❣️

Nadia is so sweet! We walked my two boys today to see if we could work together as regular customers, and I really loved how calm and confident she is! My dogs can be a handful and she redirected them so well. I am very glad to have found her!

About: I love all pets, but I have a particular affinity for special needs pets. When my own pup was diagnosed with Degenerative Myelopathy, I dedicated myself to giving him the best care, and ultimately, the best life possible. Pets are beloved members of the family and I promise to love and care for your pets as if they are my own. I welcome all shapes, sizes, and abilities. I provide boarding and house sitting services. Whichever you choose, please know that your pet will be given the best care and so much love! I find that pets are generally more comfortable in their own space. I am happy to visit yours! My schedule is quite flexible and I am open to long-term set schedules or the occasional drop-in. I try my best to keep my calendar updated. I currently do not offer boarding services, however, you can be sure that both your home and your beloved pet will be safe with me.

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: 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.

Very happy with Dustyn so far. He is quick to respond to requests, respectful, punctual, and somehow gets our dog to walk quicker with him than with us 😉 Theodore seems happy with Dustyn so we are too.

About: A former animal shelter kennel with previous experience in a structured doggy daycare setting. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do occasionally — it’s part of my everyday life. I’ve worked with kennel packs of all different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m very comfortable reading dog body language and stepping in when needed. Whether a dog needs redirection, reassurance, or just a little space, I pay attention. I naturally keep an eye on health and behavior. If a dog’s appetite changes, their energy feels off, or something just doesn’t seem right, I notice. Animals can’t tell us when they’re not feeling their best, so being observant matters to me. Enrichment is important to me as well. Beyond playtime, I’ve provided structured group play, one-on-one attention, scent activities, toy rotation, and quiet rest time. Every dog is different, and I adjust based on what helps them feel comfortable and balanced. Cleaning and sanitation are part of my daily routine, so maintaining a safe, clean space is second nature. I’m familiar with proper kennel protocols and safe disinfectant use to keep everyone healthy. I’m also very comfortable with feeding routines. Measuring portions, following specific instructions, and understanding appropriate daily intake for both dogs and cats is something I’ve done consistently through my work. Outside of my professional roles, I’m the founder and minister of a church for animals, Heimey’s Home Animal Sanctuary, here in Topeka. Building and leading this work has given me experience with animals in many different stages of life, including those who need extra patience, structure, and steady care. When you leave your pet with me, they’re not just being watched. They’re with someone who does this work every day and truly respects the responsibility of caring for someone else’s animal. Being that having an animal sanctuary and working at an animal shelter is my daily life, pet care fits into every moment of every day. I don't get burned out on it as this is my passion. It's something that I enjoy doing. I'm available most days for at home visits and sitting at your house! I currently run an at home church for animals, a residential animal sanctuary that is growing in presents online steadily by the name of Heimey's Home Animal Sanctuary. I apply all of my work knowledge at home but I do soften it due to it being a home setting. My animals get consistent hands on care, enrichment and play. Food bowls and water bowls are always filled, litter boxes are always tended to. Our dog gets walked every single day. She gets daily enrichment as well. I make sure to line up their medical care the best that I can. My life is animal caregiving so this is projected in everything that I do.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a very long time. I own a cockapoo named BaeLee and she is the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet. I now own 2 dogs: Benito and Bernie. Benito is a Rottweiler mix and Bernie is a lab/pitbull. I adopted both from the shelter and have loved my new additions to my family. I take care of my family’s and friend’s dogs all the time from watching them, playing with them, feeding them, and walking them. I am very good with dogs and can be very patient if I need to be. I love sitting down and working on tricks. Having two puppies has taught me the importance of routine and training but also fun! I take care of my pup daily. From the time I wake up until I go to sleep I am always attentive to her needs. Every now and then I’ll take care of my uncles dog throughout the day and take him out every two hours. I am very nice and patient with animals. I love to pet them and play fetch or tug of war. I do not like to touch other’s things when I go to their houses and I respect their rules. I don’t do what I wouldn’t like done in my home to other’s homes.

About: As someone serving in the Army, I bring a strong sense of responsibility, structure, and reliability. You can trust that I’ll always show up on time, follow instructions exactly, and treat your pet and home with the utmost care. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I already prioritize structure, responsibility, and physical activity through my Army background. I start most days early, so I’m used to being on a consistent schedule — which pets really thrive on. Whether it’s early morning walks, feedings, or just keeping them company during quiet afternoons, I make sure they’re cared for with love and attention. Even with a busy week, caring for animals gives me a sense of calm and purpose. Plus, I’ve already built pet care into my own life with my one eyed cat so it’s more than a routine; it’s second nature. When I care for cats in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and seen — especially since cats are creatures of habit. I stick closely to their feeding schedule, keep litter boxes clean, and give them space to warm up at their own pace. Some cats want cuddles and playtime, others just want a quiet presence — I respect each cat’s personality and adjust my care to match. I always check for signs of stress or illness, and I send daily photo updates so you know your fur baby is doing well. As a cat mom myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs from the time I was 10 and everything from a St Bernard to cats. I can ensure you that your pet will be cared and lived for while they are with me. I currently work from home and can provide around the clock watch care. When I’m not working I like to spend my time with my cat and dog. For drop in care I can take your dog on walks or whatever you would like. If it is overnight care in my home they can have as much outside time or as little as they like. I have a fenced yard as well. I do not provide overnight care at the clients home.
