Michael has been a wonderful addition to our girl’s daily routine. She is so excited to see him in the morning, and comes back from her walks so relaxed and calm. I cannot thank Michael enough for his care.

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. My husband and I currently have 3 cats and 2 dogs of our own - all rescues! We tend to gravitate towards the more challenging types, (older, behaviorally "challenged", or generally the "once you get to know them, they're really sweet" type). I've managed two different Doggy Day Care facilities: one here in KC, and another in White Plains, NY. I've also got years of experience working with dog rescue groups here in KC. Because of all this experience, there's no pet I can't handle. I'm comfortable with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes and attitudes! My current full time job is 100% remote, so I'm very flexible when it comes to your pet care needs, (pop-ins or longer stays. As long as you have wifi, I'm good). From my time working in professional pet care, I'm very used to all types of situations. I free-feed my own pets, but I have no problem following your feeding/care schedules, or maintaining a medication regimen.

Ron has walked our dog several times during the day. We appreciate his punctuality and ability to help on short notice. He came to meet our dog before the scheduled walk and we really appreciated it. Good communication as well.

About: I take my dog (Louie) on walks daily, so I would love to add your dog to our routine! I’ve been dog sitting for 20+ years, in addition to my family always having at least one dog. I personally love smaller dogs. I have experience with rat terriers, cavapoo, yorkies and cavalier king charles breeds. I love pets and think they’re so important to a family! Let me help you keep your pet happy and healthy 😁 I live on the Plaza so I’m in a very walkable part of town, near many parks. I walk my dog in the evenings after work - a quick workout for both of us. We love to walk around Kansas City together! When I’m home, Louie is always right by my side - on the couch, in bed or even while I’m cooking. I crate him most nights and while I’m at work. I live in an apartment so walks are very necessary - we go on at least one a day or we run in my apartment’s dog park. Would love to add your dog to the mix!

Chandler does a great job with my old pup. She helps give his meds in the afternoon and lets him lead the way on how far or how long he is interested in walking. We are grateful for Chandler.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, from high energy German Short Hairs to 100 pound labs, I’ve cuddled and handled them all! I’m also a huge cat lover and have cared for pals cats as well as my own. I care for any animal how I care for my own, with patience, love, and attention to the ways they work to speak to us! I’m flexibly available, with proper notice through the summer I can make full time care work. Come the Fall I will have classes but beyond that I can work both weekends and week days! I always care for animals with attention to details. Every animal is different and I would look for guidelines from owners! I believe in leashes outside of the home all the time, including harnesses or muzzles depending on what the animal may require. Checking for potential hazards such as fencing, other animals, plants, poisons, sharps is equally important to me. Ultimately animals throw us curve balls, I feel very comfortable transporting animals for emergency care as well.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have experience with dogs and cats of different ages and personalities, including senior pets. I’m patient, dependable, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, so it fits very naturally into my everyday life. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I have a flexible routine, which allows me to give pets the attention and care they deserve throughout the day, including weekends when needed. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always care for them with patience, love, and attention. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I try to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I pay attention to their behavior, make sure they feel safe, and give them lots of affection so they feel relaxed and cared for while their family is away.

About: I’ve loved animals of all kinds since I was a kid! For the last 8 years I have worked as a veterinary assistant working hands on with pets of all kinds including anxious pets, special needs pets, and geriatric pets. I’m comfortable giving medications or following specific directions for pets that need just a little more attention. I of course love pets of all ages whether that’s playing with young pets or giving older pets more accommodations. I’m currently working part-time at an animal clinic, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet! I go for walks twice daily already and your pet would make a perfect addition! I live in an apartment with my 13 year old cat, Juliet. Juliet is a very sweet cat but will typically hide when other pets are boarded in the home. My apartment is located in the Volker neighborhood with parks and plenty of walking trails nearby. For in home boarding, pets are welcome on my furniture including the bed. I am happy to follow any and all requests for boarding / caretaking inside your home, including giving medications either orally or injectables.
