Dog Walking in East Community Team North, Kansas City

“Kat was absolutely amazing. I originally asked for 1 walk but then I realized I wouldn’t be getting back to my babies for another day. When I let Kay know she was eager to help and walk my babies again the next morning. She even fed them! When I got back they were happy to see me but I know they enjoyed Kat! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You are a life saver!!!”

About: I have a pet of my own, specifically a cat. I have taken care of many of my families dogs and cats when needed. I play soccer at UMKC and am able to keep up with high energy dogs. I am currently going to school at UMKC and will have lots of time in my morning and throughout the day to come by and check on your loved ones! I am not in season at the moment, so I will be available on weekends. I will be respectful to your home by taking my shoes off and being calm and quiet when entering the home. I will lightly call for your pet while cracking the door open to let them know I am not a threat.

“Blair is an animal lover through and through. Be it caring for friends’ pets while they’re away or helping out stray animals in the neighborhood, he is always loving and seeking the best for his furry (and scaly and finned) friends.”

“Love having Jessica over to walk my pup. She's so good with animals and you can see how much see loves them. Such a comfort having her walk my sweet pup during the day”

About: Hi. My name is Keele. I love animals. I admire pet parents who use these services to provide their loved one/s the opportunity to have their own vacation while they are on theirs. Our guests can play, run in the yard, enjoy walks, squirrel watch, and take couch naps. All of those activities offer enrichment which has a positive impact on keeping your pet healthy and happy while you are away. That is why I am committed to delivering that vision so clients can have peace of mind and enjoy their time away knowing their loved one is having the best care. To answer some commonly asked questions: ANXIETY: Walks. After drop off they will get a walk. This helps decrease their initial bout of anxiousness. I also try to keep them engaged as to not allow boredom to creep in and breed anxiety, confusion or worry. DOG PARKS: I do not take client’s pets to dog parks. This is for their safety from other dogs. SLEEP: Pets have full roam. Most guests jump in our King bed and snuggle on us and our two dogs, but they are more than welcome to cozy up anywhere please. I make my own schedule. Pet care is top priority with an emphasis on exercise. Once we work out the details I adjust my schedule accordingly. Fenced Yard is first on the list for physical safety. For emotional safety and wellness we respect guests personalities and can read their mood. We do not force petting or engagement. We do not yell, spank or boss animals around. Enforce physical boundaries when needed. If my dog wants to play and we can see our guest is tired we will take our to another part of the house where either me or my husband are and put the door so they can stay in the room we are in to give your pet a break.

“Melissa is the best! She always takes excellent care of my sweet kitty boy Prince when I am out of town. I can tell by the pictures and updates she sends me that he has really bonded with her. He’s a very sensitive cat and needs a lot of attention. I am so grateful to know that he is being well taken care of and loved on when I’m away! Melissa has great communication and genuinely loves animals. Your fur baby is in good hands with her!”

“Sean is a FANTASTIC pet sitter. He took amazing care of our dog for 5 weeks. I was a little nervous at first, because our dog is so protective around me and at times anxious when I'm gone. Sean was completely undaunted by my dog's initial barking at their first meeting. By the end of day one, we got fotos of Sean and our dog hanging out together. Then came the videos of our dog going absolutely nuts with happiness upon Sean's return from an outing. Our dog LOVES Sean. Whenever Sean comes to visit, our dog swoons with excitement and is happier to see him than anyone in the world (other than my son or me.) Could pick a greater guy for the job.”

“Tori was absolutely amazing! Really took the time to understand my girl's needs before and during the visit! Even was able to make it a little earlier since I got called into work early. I would highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again!”

“Rodrigo was on time and took great care of our sweet doggy walking her all over the place. He seems very responsible and I felt super comfortable leaving our dog in his care.”

“Amanda is a trustworthy pet sitter/walker. She has taken care of my corgi, when I'm out of town and has taken him on a walk while I was at work. My corgi has leash aggression, and it is something we are working on. Amanda followed my specific instructions when taking my corgi outside on a walk. Ex: where to take him, how to hold my Corgi's leash, distancing away from other dogs while on the walk. It eased my anxiety that she followed these instructions and was good to know that she really cared about my corgi and his safety.”

About: All my life I have had dogs and cats at home. I’ve always enjoyed not only spending time with my own pets, but also my friends and neighbors pets! I’ve pet sat on many occasions for both dogs and cats (and even a turtle!). I am a pet lover and I am more than happy to take care of any other pets you have besides your doggo. I will gladly scoop some poop and feed all the pets you have! Along with dog walks, I would love to take your dog for a run too (only if they like running of course)! I can’t wait to love on your fur babies and make sure they feel comfortable and loved when you’re away from the home.

“Carson is a very responsible and loving pet sitter. She is very conscientious with our cats when we are out of town. Besides checking to make sure they have food and water she also always spends time playing with and loving on them. She has also walked our dog when we were out of the house for many hours. We have known Carson for a long time and trust her with our home and our beloved animals.”

“Kaylin is an animal lover and has a unique calm about her that I have observed be compatible with even the most anxious of dogs. Kaylin is good at reading different pets and knowing what they need. Whenever she has babysat my animals in the past she understands whether they want to play, cuddle, or have their space. She is responsible and treats people’s pets like her own.”

“I am writing to highly recommend Aaron to be a dog watcher with Rover. I have witnessed firsthand his exceptional care and love for animals. Aaron is not just reliable; he goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of every furry friend he encounters. His compassion towards animals is truly remarkable, and it reflects in the way he interacts with them. Whether it's taking long walks, providing gentle belly rubs, or simply offering a comforting presence, Aaron understands the needs of each pet on an individual level. His sincerity as an animal lover is evident in everything he does. Aaron is deeply committed to the welfare of all animals. His dedication extends beyond his own pets, and he consistently seeks opportunities to make a positive impact in the lives of those in need. I am confident that Aaron's combination of reliability, care, compassion, and genuine love for animals makes him an ideal candidate for pet sitting with Rover. Any pet under Aaron's care is sure to receive the utmost attention, affection, and top-notch care.”

About: I’ve lived with 3 dogs since I was in high school over 10 years ago and share a dog, Charlie, with my former partner, but he doesn’t live with me. I love animals and pride myself on being reliable for great care for your pet. I work from home currently so will have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets and host at a restaurant for 4-5 hours at a time a few days per week, but pets are welcome if that’s too long of a gap! I don’t have any pets and live in a very walkable neighborhood with a dog park less than a block from me for dedicated play time and potty breaks.

“Ilia was a savior! Not only did she take complete care of my pup for a weekend, I had a crisis from New York and she saved me! I'm already getting my schedule together to have her stay with my dog in upcoming weekends. 10/10”

“I have seen Wendy take care of her own cat and several other animals for about 10 years now. She has even rescued a bat trapped in an apartment before. She spends time and plays with the animals she has had in her care. Wendy also takes care and precautions for the health and well-being of her animals. She has taken her cat Izzy diet and vet visits seriously. Giving a loving happy home to a cat that had been returned twice to the shelter with food and behavior issues, but thanks to Wendy these issues are no longer a problem with Izzy, who now is over 13 years old. Wendy will take very good care of you pet with love, understanding, and care.”

“Shannon has tons of experience with dogs and cats! She not only has several fur babies of her own but also fosters for the rescue Pawsitive Tails. She loves taking care of our four legged friends and makes sure to shower any animal she meets with love!”

“When I think of a great pet owner, Roxanne always comes to mind. She truly loves all animals and is willing to give them the best care that she can. I know that she has been fostering both dogs and cats within the recent year. She has been able to provide the care that they needed to eventually get adopted. I've watched over her pets whenever she goes out of town, and her pets attitudes while she is gone is a true reflection of how great of hands they are in. I trust 100% that if I were to leave my own pets with her, that they will get the best care.”

“My dog loves Eunice Joy! She does a great job with her and I appreciate it!”
