I highly recommend Kay! My dog just spent a week with her and she came back so happy and energized, I could tell she had a great time. I really appreciated the periodic check-ins and pictures she sent while I was away. It’s always hard leaving your pet but at least with Kay you’ll be confident they’re in good hands.

Cambree was AMAZING with my boy! She arranged last minute ,within hours, picking Cheesecake up at my house. She sent me pictures each and every day even sometimes more than that. She took him on a walk most mornings as well as socialized him with a few other dogs, cats, and people which he enjoyed so much. Him staying allowed me to stay at the hospital with my husband while he was admitted emergently and her updates kept me so reassured and at peace. Cambree even readjusted the schedule to accommodate our discharge date changing! We will for sure be using her again and highly recommend.

About: Throughout the years we have watched family and friends fur babies while they are gone on their trips. I have grown up with animals my whole life. We are on a small average with animals. Daily choring is a must. I work full time during the week, but weekends are free to be able to care for your lovely pets We live on an acreage that has no fenced in yard. Lots of room to roam under supervision. We have an extra kennel if needed to kennel during the night time.

About: As a dedicated dog owner myself and longtime resident of Grand Island, I treat every pet with the same love and patience I give my own. I am familiar with our local neighborhoods and parks and I am committed to being a dependable resource for those who need a trustworthy professional to step in while they are away. Because I work from home full-time, your pet becomes my ‘co-worker’ for the day! My schedule allows me to provide consistent companionship, regular potty breaks, and playtime. My routine is very stable, which is perfect for dogs who get anxious when left alone. I am primarily available for weekday boarding and can often accommodate weekend stays with advance notice. Your pup will enjoy a calm, professional home environment where they are never just an afterthought. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I have a fenced in backyard where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and playtime throughout the day. Because I work from home, I provide a supervised environment with a consistent routine of potty breaks, mid-day stretches, and plenty of companionship. I apply the same attention to detail mentioned when caring for pets in their homes.

Kendra provided me updates throughout Charlie's stay at her house. It sounded like he had a good time with her dog and it was a much better experience than him staying at a kennel in town. Couldn't be happier that he had an actual house to stay at while we were gone.

About: I have 3 years of experience working at a doggy daycare in their boarding department, and 3 years of vet experience. I’ve also rescued several dogs over the years and have volunteered for several shelters around KC. I’m an avid dog lover who will spoil your babies just like you do! I currently have an open schedule due to being recently laid off. Your pup will get full attention! I can also travel outside of the city to meet your needs. Extremely attentive and loving and will treat your dog like my own. Due to my doggy daycare and boarding experience, I also know the importance of following the owners directions on how they want their pets cared for.

About: I have had pets and cared for animals for 15+ years. Have my own pet that travels with me almost every where I go. House is pet safe. I farm and work in rentals. During the winter I have more time care for pets. I work in my office out of my own house during the winter I have my own pet, a small Australian Shepard. She is house broke. At my own home I take pets out by leash as I don’t have a fenced in yard yet. Looking to make money by boarding to fence in back yard for better service.
