About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10 years old, including family pet care, professional pet care and personal pet care. I am experienced in dog walking, dog boarding, in home pet sitting and diabetic pets/sick pets. I have reliable transportation and am available at all times to give your pet the care they need! I am committed to being available at all times including weekends and evenings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it doesn’t feel like a task, it’s something I intentionally build into my schedule to make sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. This includes making sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of affection and attention. I love animals, so I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, playing, going for walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, and I follow any specific instructions the owner provides to ensure their pet feels happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a diabetic dog owner myself I am committed to giving your pet the best care I can!
About: I have taken care of animals by volunteering at the Kansas City pet project as well as fostering animals. I love being around animals and making sure they are well taken care of. Starting January 6th, 2026, I will be starting my student teaching semester, where I am at school from 7:40-3:30 Monday through Friday. Other than that, I can be with the pets as much as you need! I care for pets by making sure they are let out when they need to be, making sure they are fed, and by giving them plenty of love!
About: While I don't have formal experience, I've spent my whole life taking care of pets at home. I've even raised our current pups from puppies to adulthood, handling everything from feeding to playtime. My goal is to treat every pet like part of the family. I'm currently a college student down in Springfield, but whenever I'm back in town for breaks or summer, I will have a fairly flexible schedule! I'm available on the weekends, evenings, and soon to be during the weekdays as well! Every pet deserves the family treatment! I'm careful to follow their set routines and rules - whether it's playtime, feeding, or crate time. Your pet's safety always comes first!
“She and her kids had a great time with our fur baby cat! She pet her brushed her and just kept her a happy camper. When she came over and met her she was amazed how docile she was with people. I would definetely hire her again. She seems like a great sitter. She sent us lots of pics of Pretty too.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Mya made the experience amazing! I will definitely be using her again. My dog is very shy and not good with strangers but Mya took her time to be patient and calming. My dog started warming up to her very fast and I belive dogs have a good judge of character ;)”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to travel for pet-sitting jobs and even stay overnight when needed, as long as there’s Wi-Fi so I can keep up with my classes. Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.
About: Hello! I currently own a Goldenlab-Bella and a Lionhead Bunny-Pumpkin. They are my loves and my whole world! I want to take as great of care of your fur babies as I do my own! Bella is quite the adventure buddy! She loves being outdoors almost as much as I do! She doesn't care much for fetch, but dog parks, hiking, roadtrips--that's right up her alley! Pumpkin is quite the explorer! He loves romping through the house and discovering new treats! Bella and pumpkin are both rescues and now spend their days lounging around he house together. I look forward to meeting your furry kiddos and sharing in their special moments! I only work in the afternoons during the week, so I spend quite a bit of my time taking my dog on walks are exploring new trails. I have worked as a vet assistant for the last three years, so I have had plenty of experiences working with high energy or nervous dogs and creating and environment where they can thrive!
“Jacki is amazing with our pets. We have used her several times and she is always a great communicator, punctual and takes excellent care of our pets while we are out of town. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Saige is awesome! She goes above and beyond to care for my pup and to communicate concerns. Great peace of mind when traveling knowing my pup is receiving high quality care. Thanks!”
About: I've had pets from all walks of life since I can remember. Everyone of them has been a cherished family member, friend, and confidant. I'm experienced with every stage of life from puppy potty training to the senior medication needed stage. I love them all! As a work from home pet parent and sitter, I'll have all the maximum personal time and attention you expect for your four legged loved one. I have two friendly dogs to keep your loved one company and a five year old to wear them out! I have plenty of space to keep all pets separated if need to be.
About: I've been caring for cats since l was about about 6 or 7 years old. After I lost my oldest cat Sailym at 17, I've decided I wanted to continue helping others with their pets while they travel and give them a peace of mind like I had during my trips to Spain in college. The past few years I have dedicated some of my free time to help a few family and friends with their other dogs and cats while they take long travels at a country. I currently work full time but am free throughout the entire weekend which is why I prefer cats. I am able to stay overnight at places as long as I can commute to and from my own office as well as drop by my house to see my cats too. My house are currently has one to two dedicated rooms just for pets that includes cat trees, extra litter boxes and places to play, as well as toys. This allows an easy transition if they need to be separated from my own animals or they need some time to decompress.
About: I have over two years of experience working in a dog boarding facility, where I developed strong skills in animal care, supervision, and handling dogs of all temperaments. I am currently pursuing my Veterinary Technician degree, further expanding my knowledge and passion for animal care. In addition, I have provided trusted house and dog sitting services through personal recommendations and referrals. I genuinely love working with dogs and plan to dedicate my career to caring for and improving the lives of animals. A dog fits well into my weekly routine because I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to dedicate time to feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, and companionship. I enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Incorporating a dog into my routine feels natural, and I’m able to provide them with the attention and structure they need throughout the week. I provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. While dog sitting, I make sure pets maintain their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I prioritize each dog’s safety, comfort, and well-being, and I always keep owners updated with photos and communication for peace of mind. My goal is to create a calm, caring environment where dogs feel happy and secure while their owners are away.
“Madison was great with our Dalmatian, Dash! We had Madison come in for 3 days to do drop in visits with our Dalmatian while we were gone for Thanksgiving. She was great and took time to feed, water and play with Dash each day! Would highly recommend Madison for your pet needs.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. My family frequently took in rescue pitbulls, so from a young age I learned how to train even the most stubborn animals. I began pet sitting for family/friends as a teenager. Many of the animals I took care of during this time were seniors, so I got quite a bit of experience in senior dog care. During college, I brought home a very energetic and very stubborn Cane Corso. I hired a professional trainer and learned many important tips on top of my already existing knowledge about dog training, which came in handy when I got a second corso. Throughout my life I’ve gained experience training puppies, taking care of senior pets, and caring for pets with diabetes and other chronic conditions. I’m currently PRN at my other job, so I can work my other job completely around the needs of your pet and what they’ll need while in my care. I have a fenced in yard and two bigger pups that are incredibly friendly and love having new dogs to play with. I also have a two year old daughter who is obsessed with animals, so needless to say your pet will not be spared any attention while in our home. Even if you’re not looking to board your pup, I have full availability to take care of your pet in the comfort of their own environment, and am willing to stop by as often as needed to make sure your pup gets all the care and attention needed while you’re away.
About: Experience caring for all creatures from livestock to small animals. I love all animals, and I am happy to make their routine as normal as possible while you are away. I love to walk and play outside as well as stay in and snuggle on the couch. What ever your pets need, we can make it work! I am used to following detailed plans, routines and instructions to make sure your absence is as easy as possible for your fur kids! I am more than happy to send updates and photos as often as you would like, I know how great it can be to see them when you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your companions! I am currently working remote Tuesday through Friday and have the ability to complete dog-walks or drop in visits for all species during those days. I always strive to make pets feel as comfortable as possible during our interactions, and stick to their routines as much as possible. From crate training to play time my goal is to have pets enjoy their time spent with me.
About: I have a flexible schedule and can adjust visits as needed. You tell me what you need and I will try to provide the hours you would like. I can come to your home and will respect your home while I am there. I am an older person and is responsible. I have experience with cats of different personalities.
About: Gone on a business trip? Family emergency on the other side of town? Just want a night out without thinking “did I let the dog out?” Never fear leaving your pet again! My name is Kayla, I’m 27 years old and I’ve been involved with animals all my life. Dogs, cats, hamsters, hedgehogs, goats, horses, cows, you name it! I pride myself in a crazy dog lady, and take care of every animal like they’re my own. Every animal is different and has specific quirks and needs that I’ll quickly pick up and adapt to. Your pet and I will without a doubt become best pals by the time you return, and you’ll never want another pet sitter again. Book me and find out! :) I currently work full time on the weekends, with occasional days during the week, but am able to be flexible with scheduling with advanced notice. Care would be best in your home, but we could possibly arrange care in my home with proper introduction to my animals and children first.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Grain Valley
Kathleen is awesome! Our request was a little different than most - we needed someone to care for our koi pond and keep an eye out for critters in the pool! She sent awesome pictures and updates, and even went the extra mile to net frogs out of the pool, which isn't easy! We felt very confident that our fish were in good hands, and they were! Thanks Kathleen!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Grain Valley choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
