Bison Kansas

CURRENT DATES (2025): March 15-23

Hello everyone! We have a house here in rural Kansas, away from the world. We take trips, and I am fortunate to have a regional airport just a half an hour away. I'm looking for a housesitter for Murphy, my dog. He's on the small end of a large dog (about 80 pounds). He's well trained but bursting with energy often. He'll listen to you, though. (UPDATE: He's 9 years old now and is slowing down. He's calmer and stiffer than he used to be. He's on a daily supplement now).

Basically just take care of Murphy. He has a doggy door with access to a fenced off backyard so you don't need to do much at all! You can even go take little trips if you'd like, just make sure he has enough food and water before you go.

If you enjoy a quiet town and friendly people, you'll love it. You're just a bit over half an hour away from Hays and Great Bend, both have more going on than this little town, including cultural events and things like breweries or live music.

This town is not connected to any public transportation that I know of. However, if you are flying into the country I could pick you up from the regional Hays airport, and we could talk about potentially using my vehicle while I'm gone.

PS... lightning fast high-speed internet (fiber-optic).

Bison is located within the Smokey Hills region of Kansas. Yes, there are hilly regions of Kansas!! This and the Flint Hills are the big ones. Want more that might surprise you? Go check out the Little Jerusalem Badlands! So, yes, you outdoorsy folks... I'm one of you and I live in Kansas. I'm in the middle of thru-hiking (in chunks) the Flint Hills trail. Yes, that's right, thru-hikes in Kansas. Feel free to use our kayaks while you're here, and bikes!
