About: I've had indoor dogs my entire life. I currently have a 13 year old Senior Beagle and his sister, 10 year old Beagle mix. I will treat your animals with the same care as I do mine. I know what's it's like to be busy and not be able to get home during the day to care for your dog. I will walk, or let your dog out to potty. I will give medication if needed along with check for food/water. I can also text, send pictures during my visit. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexibility daytime schedule to walk, let out to potty and play/interact with your dog or cat. I will show your pet love and care for your piece of mind. I have a fenced yard for my two dogs, but I also see the great benefit in walking them daily. I will gladly come to your home, let your dog(s) out and walk them if you like.

About: Grew up with dogs and now have two Golden babies at home. Love to play and interact with them so they feel secure and loved. Used to high energy pups and willing to take the extra time to make sure they get their energy out. I am a Real Estate Agent. So, my schedule is flexible. I am usually available after 7am and up until 10pm. I am used to entering homes, since my job requires me to. I am reliable and honest. I have watched my friend's dogs for many years. I am comfortable with walking your dogs and playing with them in the yard or inside. I enjoy the time with them as I am a huge lover of all dogs.
About: I’ve cared for dogs for friends and family for years, including up to three at a time! Every workday, I get to play doggy daycare for my sister’s Australian Cattle Doodle. We go on walks, play, and sometimes work on her training, which has taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and making learning fun. I’m just as comfortable with cats! I have one of my own and have cared for everything from adult cats to a mama cat and her entire litter. I genuinely love animals of all kinds and would love the chance to spend time with yours. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet, so I’ll make sure they’re getting plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away. I’m also the type of pet parent who’s constantly taking pictures and videos of my own baby, so I know you’d probably love updates too! You can expect lots of photos and videos of your happy, spoiled pets so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work from home Monday through Friday, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the day. As long as I can plan around my scheduled meetings, I’m able to accommodate most weekday visits, walks, and drop-ins. I’m also available on weekends, so I can provide care whenever you need it. I enjoy getting out for walks, sticking to your pet’s routine, and making sure they get plenty of attention and love while you’re away. At this time, I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, medications (if needed), or just plenty of cuddles and companionship. I know every pet is different, so I always do my best to match their routine and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I also love sending photo and video updates, so you’ll always know how your furry family member is doing!
About: I've trained service dogs and puppies. I've also cared for multi-animal (species and number) households and I've been doing so my whole life. Whether the dog is big or small, I'd love to help! Pet care is an integral part of my daily or weekly routine. I have ADHD that leans towards forgetting to do stuff for myself. To counter that, I connect my human activities with my pet activities. Like "I fed the dogs and cats" and then the next sentence is "Oh! I will feed myself too!" I have crate trained dogs before and can reinforce that training to ensure that dogs feel safe and secure in their resting area. I like to familiarize myself with their habits. For instance, where does your dog like to go for a walk? How do they exercise? What's their favorite treat and when do they usually get them? Do they like doing a particular activity? This is my client's home and with that it is my client's pet's home. I take that to heart and try to embed these habits into their daily routine so that they can be cared for well and in the way that they know.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10. I’ve worked in dog boarding for 4 years and I love dogs and caring for them. When I worked in dog boarding I was in charge of feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and much more! I have experience working will young and old dogs, I have no problem giving medicine to pets either! Currently my schedule is very flexible. I’m looking to find a part time job and in the mean time, but will continue using Rover to care for pets. I have one dog, a cat, and a lizard that I care for at home. I am willing to go to others house to care for their pets! I walk my dog daily and clean up after my pets, feed them on time.
About: I’ve been apart of rover for 5 years now, and my experience in pet sitting proceeds that for 10+. I love pets and have a very flexible schedule. I am freshly back to the area after college graduation so I will be around for the near future with lots of free time. My work schedule is 8-4:30pm M-F so I will be out of the home during those times, with availability to stop in for a visit around lunch time. I am energetic and willing to work with you to give you the most peace of mind as possible as you go on your trips! I work full time 8-4:30 Monday-Friday with special cases on holidays. I am available any time outside of those hours and short period in the middle of the day to drop in during my lunch hour. I am not able to house pets in my house but I am more than comfortable to watch them in your house. I have practice and experience with all safety measures that are needed with pet and home care.

About: I’ve have taken care of animals my whole life. Both of my parents are veterinarians! I’m able to give medications & care for many animals! I also recently worked as an apprentice at a dog training facility & can help with basic obedience. I am currently working in the Kansas City area with plenty of free time to visit or stay with your pets! I will be available most weekends & weekdays. I recently lost my 11-year-old french bulldog, Scout. She meant the world to me & showed me how to be the best owner/friend I can be. I will treat your animals with the same love & respect.
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals, and I’ve taken care of cats and dogs ever since I can remember! While growing up I cared for dogs and cats of friends, families, and others who were referred to me by word of mouth. Now I use Rover to connect with other pet owners and my services include dog walking, check ins for potty breaks, medicine administration, pet sitting… and I will go above and beyond to give your furry friend lots of love and attention! I live in a house with a Saint Bernard mix, a German shepherd, a golden retriever, and a cat so I am no stranger to fur and slobber!! I’ve even been able to gain the trust of a runaway German shepherd and I returned him home safely! Pet care can fit into any time of my schedule! The times I prefer are in the morning and afternoon but I am open to evenings. With summer coming in I’m more comfortable walking in the mornings or evenings for the sake of your dog’s comfort and paws! :) My experience with almost all dogs and cats is safety follows trust and you can’t have trust without a positive environment. Which is why I find the meet and greet not just for the owner’s sake but for the welfare of who I’m caring for. I have never broken trust with any of my clients. I always send a follow up message letting them know how the time went.

“Elena was wonderful - This was the first time we used Rover after a negative experience with a private dog-walking service, so we were a little nervous to try someone new - but Elena was exactly what we needed: punctual, responsive, attentive and caring toward our dog, noting and following all instructions on food, water, walking habits, etc. She gave us every assurance and confidence - Would highly recommend her and would definitely be using her again if we travel out of town again!”

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I have 3 dogs, a cat, and a 75 gallon fish tank in my household and I love them all dearly. I take my dog Willow to the dog park regularly and I hope to be able to help keep your pet active as well! I am an honest a genuine person who you can trust in your home and with the safety and happiness of your pets. I used to work as a veterinary assistant and am more than capable of administering medication, including insulin and checking glucose levels. I hope I can bring you and your pets happiness with my services! I’m fine with any ages as well :) Puppies and senior dogs are always welcome. Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions. I am currently in school and doing Rover full time, so I tend to leave periodically throughout the day for drop ins and I also play volleyball. But besides that I am able to stay in your home most of the time :) I live in a shared house, so if you would like me to take care of your animals in my own home, I would need to clear it with my roommate first! I have plenty of space that isn’t shared so as long as your pet is small/medium and fully potty trained, that most likely won’t be an issue. I have a fenced in yard. I am also receptive to those who are very particular about their pets as well. Whether they are handicapped and require extra attention, need medication at certain times, or if you would like me to take them on a certain amount of walks per day etc. I should also mention that I am a people please at heart, so you are guaranteed great service! 😊
About: My name is Olivia L. and i recently moved back to Kansas City. I have had a passion for animals since i was a child, always looking to go to the farm and take care of the animals, looking after my friends and family’s pets, and trying to see if i could convince my parents to add a new edition to the family. I have had many pets over the years and i am always interested in giving some love and attention to any animal who is willing to love me back!

About: Animals have been a major part of my life since I was a child. I grew up on a family farm with all sorts of animals. We also had plenty of indoor pets such as dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, and the occasional reptile. I have had years of experience house and pet sitting. In undergrad, I work with a large and small veterinarian for several months and took several animal husbandry classes. I've also worked at a doggy daycare center in the past with roughly 70 dogs per day. I am a student currently pursuing a doctorate degree in chiropractic. I have classes monday-friday, but there are breaks in my schedule throughout the day. I am comfortable and adaptable with any situation or furry friend that needs to be looked after. I live in an apartment so watching a pet in their owners home is preferable.
