“Taryn was wonderful! She was kind, respectful, and made me feel like taking care of my kitty wasn’t just a job. She made him feel really at home and he can be pretty shy. I loved seeing the daily pictures. She was very flexible with my schedule as well which I so appreciate!! Would definitely recommend to anyone and would book again for sure. This was my first time using Rover and it was a lovely experience with her.”

“Melissa was fantastic, she made sure that our doggo was well taken care of while we were out of town! I really appreciated how responsive she was when we checked in about how things were going and including lots photos of their walks in her reports. We knew Charlie was in great hands with her.”

About: I have dog sat and cared for many other dogs and animals before. I will always make sure the animals are well treated for and the house is taken care of. I am very friendly and strive to make sure every experience is friendly. I have two dogs of my own. I am excited to be able to take care of your dogs and make sure they get what they need while you are away from home. Something that sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I am very client forward and will work to meet your needs. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups, I am available for walks and check ins Monday/wednesday/ thursday and house sitting Monday- Sunday! I follow all directions owners leave for me to care for their dog and home.I also help run errands while owners are away, and in warmer months I take care of indoor and outdoor plants
“Kayma is thorough, caring and detailed in her work. We had a complicated situation and Kayma was incredibly patient and understanding. They will be our first call for cat sitting in the future.”

“Fantastic! Was out of town for two weeks and relied on Rachel to drop in on our cat every two days. Got excellent, detailed updates and pictures, and my normally antisocial scardy-cat took to her immediately! Definitely someone you and your pet can trust!! Will book again in the future.”

“Super sweet to help out super last minute as we got stuck 10 hours away. Our poor babies had pooped inside and she picked it all up so we wouldn’t come back to a total mess. She was also amazing with our GSD who can be shy/timid. We will definitely use her again!!”

“Taylor always sits for us. She’s very committed, communicates, and is cleanly. She’s professional and we are relieved to have found someone so great to watch our animals while we are away. We have bunny and some birds”

“Taylor messaged and sent pictures from each visit. She kept us informed on how the dogs were doing and we were able to enjoy our short vacay knowing they were in good hands. Thanks!”

“Erin has been great for our dog Tony! She seems to always make it work to see Tony even when we ask her on short notice. We love her pictures and Tony loves her too!”


“Susan is hands down the BEST pet setter we’ve ever had!!! We had a bit of an ant problem while we were out of town for the weekend—Susan offered to pick us up some ant baits from Home Depot since she was planning on going the next day anyways (this was on my to-do list, but I didn’t have time to get them before we left for our trip, so I was so stoked to see her kind offer in my messages!) Not only did she buy us ant baits, but she carefully + creatively placed them around our kitchen, making sure our cat wouldn’t be able to reach them. Thank you, Susan!”

“Nicole has watched my cat several times now. I highly recommend them! My cat is always healthy and happy when I come home despite long trips. Best cat sitter ever! 🙂”


“Ron is great and SO reliable. I never wonder for even a moment whether he’ll show up as scheduled or care for our dogs as we request. I can see in the photos he takes that the dogs greet him at the door with toys to show off to him — an unmistakable sign that they are happy to see him!”

“Lizzy was amazing to say the very least! Her communication was very prompt and detailed. I also really enjoyed seeing the photos and summary of the visits. Highly recommend👌”

About: I grew up not being able to have any cats or dogs so I was always watching my friends/family's pets every chance I got. My intuition with most pets really helps me be able to get along with them and keep them happy in any way I can! I am a financial account representative for Shamrock Trading Corporation/RTS Financial in Overland Park. I work 8-5 Monday through Friday so weekends work best for me. On the weekends I can essentially surround my plans around how much time the pet needs and be pretty flexible in regards to what has to get done. In most circumstances I only take care of pets at the clients home. I feed the pets, walk them, play with them, spend time with them or do anything I can to go above and beyond in order to please my client.
“She did so great with our 2 dogs! Was very flexible on what they needed each visit, sent awesome photos and updated us throughout the day! Highly recommend Caitlin”

“I always have personal issues leaving my cats because I worry about them a lot and I’m just so annoyingly specific about how I do everything for my cats but Sharon is an angel and took the best care of them. I can’t thank her enough for all the pictures and how sweet she speaks to and treats my cats. Thank you Sharon”

“Kadyn was great and we loved having her take care of our cat Stormy!! Kadyn was super responsive and sent loads of pictures at each drop-in, making sure Stormy was entertained even while we were out. I’m super glad our cat had Kadyn with her while we were away :)”

“Vanessa was awesome! We only booked a drop in, but she helped us out a lot when we needed our girls to be taken potty while we were out of town for the day. Thank you again! We’ll definitely rebook in the future.”

“Taylor did a fantastic job with my kitties! They both came out for her. She spent lots of quality time with them. My home looked and smelled clean when we got home from vacation, which never happens. She refilled my auto feeder when it got low and kept on top of the wet food and water refills. She even ran the vacuum and swept up litter kicked out of the box by my crazy young one. 10/10 recommend!”

Central Hyde Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Brittany took exceptional care of our cats! We have four cats with different needs and she was very attentive to all of them. I appreciated all the photos and very thorough updates on each pet! Very responsive and always kept us up to date on her arrival to our place. Highly recommend Brittany for your pet sitting needs and will be booking with her again!

This was our 2nd time booking with Avery, both times for a holiday away! She is amazing with our 2 cats and is so thorough and communicative, which has been such a necessity and relief for the care of our kitty boys who have anxiety and medical needs. Will rebook whenever possible!

This was the first time I have had Claudia watch my two cats, and it won’t be the last! She is wonderful, paying attention to detail and had great communication. She was patient and loving to one of my cats who can be difficult. She was always on time and made sure to reach out with any questions. I’d highly recommend Claudia for any of your fur babies needs!

Here’s a polished review you can use for Jennifer: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jennifer was amazing with our dogs! Her communication was clear and consistent from start to finish, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She arrived on time every day, showed incredible patience with our pups, and took great care of our home. We came back to a clean, tidy house and happy dogs. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely book with her again!

Taylor was so awesome. My hubs and I came to KC for a wedding and just needed a sitter for a few hours each day while we attended the wedding activities. Taylor was able to stay with Murphy on short notice. She took him to a park and played ball with him for a hour. We are so grateful to her. It’s hard to stay with an active dog in a hotel and Taylor just made it so easy for us and made our sweet boy a happy dog. 10 outta 10. Highly recommend Taylor for taking care of your fur babies. 🥰

Samantha was amazing!!! Something came up so I had to book a very last minute request and she responded right away. My cat seemed to love her and she left the best, detailed comments with the cutest pictures! It really put my mind at ease knowing he was in good hands! I highly recommend😊
