“Crissy is a compassionate dog sitter. She had no issues with our senior dog care (which required diaper changes and the occasional accident). She sent daily pictures. I would use her again to care for my dogs.”
“This is the second time we’ve used Lulu. And we are so thankful she agreed and was available to look after our three pups. Lulu updated me on the dogs twice a day, took the dogs for a walk, played with them and followed all of the instructions I left for her. We are so lucky we have found her! I highly recommend.”


“Kate was amazing!! She checked in often and sent photos of my dogs daily! Dolly is usually timid of people but she was really comfortable with Kate! She stayed at my home and was with them majority of the time! They had constant care and attention. When I returned she started laundry for the bedding and towels, and left everything spotless! It doesn’t even look like she was here which is such a blessing to come back to a clean home! I would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Rachel did an amazing job with our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing she was taking such good care of them. We got daily updates, with pictures. She gladly brought in mail and watered plants for us. She is very accommodating and fit us in to her schedule. She was able to pop in for 3 afternoons visits before her time here started when our son wasn’t able to get here during the day to let them out. We will definitely be calling her for future jobs! She’s a gem!!”

“Amazing caretaker. She went above and beyond to ensure my pets were taken care of. My dog had a cough and she took him to the vet and kept me updated every step of the way. Would recommend her to any pet owner!”

“Erin was fantastic! We had severe storms while we were away and Erin was conscientious enough to watch the sump pump and take care of the patio furniture so it wouldn't get blown away too. We were grateful for that!! She took several amazing photos of our dog and communicated daily. We will definitely use her services again in the future. She has a very sweet personality too!!”

“Deidre did a fantastic job of taking care of my dog Blaze and providing updates on how my pup was doing! This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous about the process. Deidre was available for a meet and greet prior to accepting the house sitting request, which definitely helped me get comfortable. She sent photos and videos of Blaze playing fetch to brighten my days away (work trip) and confirmed I had made it home on the last day of my trip.”

About: I am an animal lover with a variety of experience in caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up in a loving home with multiple dogs and cats at all times. I am comfortable with both large and small dogs. I want to make sure you don't have to worry about the care your pets are receiving. I will follow all guidelines provided and make sure to give them all the love and attention they deserve. I've also volunteered with both the Humane Society and KC Pet Project. With KC Pet Project I would visit local PetCo's and take care of the cats for adoption daily. I am an active individual who loves to go on walks! If looking for boarding, Belle & Abbey (my babies) and my cat Phoebe will be present. If concerned, please let me know and we can discuss options. Please contact me today if your furry babies need some love and attention. I would love to help. I am currently a freelance worker, working from home, with plenty of time to spend with your fur-babies! My schedule is easily adjustable to meet your needs. Available 7 days a week. I am in a 1-story home with a fenced in yard where your dogs will feel right at home. Pets are allowed on the furniture, I have doggie-steps in the living room and bedroom for small dogs or dogs with joint issues. I do have 2 small dogs and 1 cat, if you're concerned about them getting along please let me know and we can discuss options.

“Lori took great care of my young puppy and was very conscientious in taking instructions. The pup clearly was a big fan of Lori's from the get-go. Highly recommend and I will certainly be using her for dog care in the future!”

“Maryn is amazing! She took great care of my boy while I was away for the week. I appreciated her updates and communication while I was away and will definitely reach out again for her services in the future.”

“I'm so glad to have found Mirette to housesit for my two dogs! It makes me feel better knowing that I have someone I can trust with my home and my fur babies. I've used Mirette several times now and highly recommend her.”

“Excellent sitter for my 8 year old and 2 1 year old Rottweiler puppies. Mya is a loving and compassionate person. She followed my special instructions to the tee and was especially great with my youngest puppy with epilepsy as one of the 7 dogs in her own household also has epilepsy. I couldn't have asked for a better person than Mya for my last minute booking while I had surgery. Will definitely use her repeatedly! Highly recommend.”

“Abby is wonderful and I would highly recommend her. We did an initial meet and greet and I immediately felt comfortable with her. We were gone for 11 days and Abby stayed at our home with our 5 pound Yorkie. We choose an in home sitter because our dog has major separation anxiety. Abby sent us daily updates and pictures and our dog was living her best life as usual!! We already have our next stay scheduled with Abby.”

“Jenny stayed in our home taking care of our 2 dogs - one dog is recuperating from a leg injury and she did a great job ensuring our girl got her exercise and rest. Jenny is dependable and communicates regularly. Highly recommend!”

“Luca was such an amazing dog sitter/house sitter! Our 2 bigger dogs loved having him around. They were very happy and content when we got back. Luca sent multiple updates and the house was amazing when we returned! Highly recommend Luca!”


“Jenni was outstanding! She was great to communicate with, went above and beyond in taking care of the house, and most importantly, the animals really felt safe with her. We will absolutely be requesting her services again.”

“We recently had Melissa pet sit for our dog and two cats, and we couldn’t be more impressed with the care she provided. From start to finish, she was reliable, attentive, and clearly devoted to making sure our pets were happy, healthy, and well cared for. Melissa took our dog on frequent, regular walks and kept us updated with tons of adorable photos that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. One of our cats had an injury that required a little extra attention, and Melissa handled it with such care and sensitivity—we were truly grateful for the way she looked after him. Both cats were well-fed and comfortable, and we came home to find all three pets relaxed and content. Not only were the animals happy, but our house was absolutely immaculate when we returned—it’s clear that Melissa takes pride in every aspect of her work. We would highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like her own. If you want your pets to have the absolute best care while you’re away, Melissa is the one to call!”

Citadel pet parents share their Rover experiences
Maryn was so great, our dog had so much fun with her and got so much love, attention, exercise, and play time! She sent so many pictures which put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was taken care of. Would definitely use Maryn again and definitely recommend her!

We have had Randy watch our puppy a few times now and we love him! He met her before their first sleepover and was very thorough with her intake so he knows all about her needs and our home. He also recommended we make a sitter cheat sheet which we have done and love, especially since she's a growing puppy and things are often changing. He always brings her a new little toy which she will proudly carry around and speak for days. He plays with her, walks her, loves on her, and let's her bask in the sunshine as much as her heart desires. He also fills out our dog log so we can keep track of all her activites and sends lots of photos so we don't miss her too much. We highly recommend Randy!

Kayma was AMAZING! She did a great job communicating before her stay and during the stay she sent lots of updates and pictures of Otis. My house looked as if she wasn’t there when I returned. I was able to relax during my time away because I knew my anxious dog was being well taken care of, thank you so much Kayma.

This was my first time using Rover, and my first time leaving my kitties. I was blown away at how wonderful Ashley was! She was so attentive and wonderful with them. She did perfect with the insulin injections for Pedro and made sure he ate, sent me pictures and I swear my house was cleaner than when I left it! I highly recommend her. 🩵
Kayla did a wonderful job taking care of our dog! She kept us updated the whole time with pictures and texts, which was great peace of mind! It was obvious how comfortable our dog was with her, from the pictures of him totally relaxed with his belly in the air and how much fun he was having in the yard when we got home!
