About: Hello, my name is Jennifer and I am an Army veteran who has recently moved to the Leavenworth area after 10 years of service. I have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats. During my free time, I enjoy volunteering to take care of both dogs and cats at the Fort Leavenworth Animal Shelter. This includes assisting with socialization, walks, cleaning and adoption events. As a veteran, military spouse and pet mom, I understand the rigors of military life and how important it is to have a trusted pet sitter while you and your family are serving our country. Additionally, if you are looking for someone who can access your home on a military installation such as Fort Leavenworth, I have 24/7 access to reach your home on post. Regardless of whether you are a civilian or affiliated with the military, I understand how busy life can be. I prioritize dependability, flexibility and attention to detail to provide the best care possible. I would be honored to be given the opportunity to take care of your animals. I am able to provide pet sitting services seven days a week in order to best support your needs. I am widely available in order to reach as many people in the community as possible. I will care for your pet in the comfort of their own home just as you would. I will ensure that they are comfortable, happy and at ease. I will also ensure that they stick to any routines that you have set.
“If I could leave Marianna a 500 star review, that still wouldn’t be enough. I needed last minute care due to a medical emergency, and she not only accommodated my need with less than 18 hours notice, but she did so with a level of care for my kitties that I have never experienced before. Within 15 minutes of her arrival, I had photos and videos of all of my babies (which is no small feat in itself), and she continued to provide multiple updates, photos, and videos. She was so so so loving and gentle with my kitties, stayed with them all day and overnight, and gave me the comfort and reassurance I was desperately needing. I will absolutely be hiring her every time I need a sitter moving forward (hopefully sans the hospital stay and ideally for a fun getaway instead). Thank you so much, Marianna. There are not enough ways to express my gratitude!”
About: I grew up wanting a dog and not being able to have one, so I took to playing with, walking, and helping to train my neighbors’ dogs instead. I have experience now with all different sizes of dogs. I can comfortably walk any size dog, and work on leash manners if necessary. I also have experience training basic obedience, recall, and working with fearful or reactive dogs. I worked at Puppy’s Playpen for almost 2 years, and gained a ton of experience with all sorts of different types of dogs. I was also trained in administering medications, including insulin, while working there and I’m very comfortable with doing so. As an adult now, I have two dogs of my own. Both of my dogs are crate trained, and I have no problem keeping them up and/or separated from your pet(s) if requested! My brother also lives with me and has a small dog of his own as well, but she stays in his room when he’s not home and is with him when he is. I’m currently between jobs and mostly do DoorDash in my spare time. I’d love to fit your pet(s) into my daily schedule! In my home, I have two dogs and several cats. My dogs do well with other dogs, but are also crate trained and can be separated! My cats are strictly indoor only, but can be contained to one room if needed. I have a large half acre fenced in backyard as well. I do not treat my yard with any kinds of pesticides, but we do not have any pests such as fleas. In a client’s home, care would depend on the type of home/yard. If there is not a fenced in yard, all potty breaks would be on a leash to ensure the safety of your dog. With a fenced in yard, the dog(s) wouldn’t necessarily need a leash but would still be supervised at all times! I’m willing to talk about any special circumstances or specific needs you or your pet have!
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, either from friends, my own house, partners, parties at houses, and more. Every dog I’ve met I’ve become friends with and we usually vibe together at every meeting. I love playing with dogs and getting their energy out, but I also love chilling with low energy dogs and having some quiet time. I truly am open to all kinds of dogs to watch and I’d love to be friends with your dog too! I’m currently working two part-time jobs and I am starting classes back up on August 18, but I am still available for over-night house sitting and potty breaks throughout the day. Weekends should allow me some more time to spend with the pet(s) as I won’t be as busy during the day. I make sure to always follow any rules set by the home owners, as I believe the place I’m staying should be respected and kept tidy. I make sure to cross off any lists I’ve made of supplies that will be needed during the time the home/pet owners are gone. I also love staying places because it feels like a mini vacation for myself. And, I get to do it with pets around?? Heck yeah!
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and cats since I was 11, including during their illnesses and senior years. Friends and family often ask me to house-sit, feed, entertain, and care for their pets while they are out of town for any amount of time. I have a wide range of experience including kittens, birds, rodents, and large dogs. I currently work part-time/seasonal on a flexible schedule. I am available for all kinds of care outside these hours, including walks, drop-ins, and home sitting. I live in a home with a fenced yard with my three pets, which does not make it ideal for hosting. I do live in a fairly quiet neighborhood where I am able to walk dogs for a long distance without much strain.
About: I understand that your pets are family. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I offer pet sitting, house sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, waste cleanup, playtime, companionship, medication administration (if needed), and lots of love and attention tailored to your pet’s routine. Whether you have energetic dogs, independent cats, or multiple pets, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. I’m reliable, trustworthy, and treat every home with the same respect I would my own. I believe in clear communication and will gladly provide updates and photos so you can see how your pets are doing while you’re away. Because I am a full-time online student, my schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to make pet sitting my top priority. Unlike a traditional 9-to-5 job where I would be away from the house all day, my school structure allows me to work entirely from home on my own terms. This means I have ample open blocks of time throughout the day dedicated solely to pet care. I can easily accommodate structured feeding times, frequent potty breaks, and mid-day play sessions without interruption. Your pets will receive consistent companionship, and because I'm studying from my laptop, I am available to provide the constant supervision, love, and attention they deserve." When caring for pets in your home, my primary goal is to maintain their regular routine so they feel safe and secure while you are away. Seamless Routine Adherence: I strictly follow your established feeding schedules, medication timelines, and specific instructions to keep their environment predictable and stress-free. Meticulous Cat Care: As a multi-cat owner myself, I know the importance of a clean environment. I scoop litter boxes thoroughly during every visit and sweep up any tracked litter. Quality Companionship: Because my full-time student schedule is so flexible, I don't just rush in and out. I dedicate genuine time to interactive playtime with their favorite toys, gentle grooming, or just quiet companionship on the couch while I study. Home Respect & Communication: I respect your space, leave it exactly as I found it, and provide you with detailed daily updates and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how they are doing.
“Jennifer was FANTASTIC! Her care was top notch and I felt so secure leaving my kiddos with her. I genuinely think that one of my cats, Toast was disappointed to see us, and not Jennifer. She gave great updates and photos at every visit and we appreciated her so much! I will absolutely contact Jennifer again for care of our kitties.”
About: I started pet sitting a couple years ago for my family and friends and it’s truly a job I love doing. I have experience with pet sitting several different dogs, varying in age and breed. I have experience with senior dogs. My responsibilities while pet sitting dogs included taking dogs on daily walks, preparing food and water, administering medication, and even giving baths. I’m currently a college student at the University of Kansas, and I am taking classes on the weekdays. I have selected that I’m available on all weekdays, because I have several gaps between classes that will allow me check on and take care of your pets every 2-4 hours. After 3 o’clock on every weekday except Thursday I will be able provide full time care as well as on weekends. My goal is to provide the best care for your pet, and I’m prepared to walk, play, feed, crate, clean and do whatever is needed to provide your pet with the best care.
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and grew up working on a farm, so I’m comfortable around all kinds of animals and understand the responsibility that comes with proper animal care. I currently own two Persian cats myself, so I’m familiar with higher-maintenance grooming needs, sensitive pets, and paying close attention to an animal’s comfort, behavior, and routine. I’m experienced with cats, dogs, and other animals of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, including senior pets and anxious animals that need extra patience. I’m calm, attentive, and detail-oriented, and I always make sure pets feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while their owners are away. I also believe communication is important, so I’ll provide updates and photos to help owners feel reassured that their pets are in good hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I’m able to work around feeding schedules, playtime, walks, check-ins, and giving pets companionship so they stay comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very routine-oriented and understand how important consistency is for animals, especially cats and pets that may need extra patience or attention. I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their own environment. During visits, I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, medications, routines, litter box care, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I’m attentive to behavior changes and always make sure pets are secure, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I also value communication and will provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
