“Jaime was by far the best house/ dog sitter we have used since we started using Rover more than 5 years ago for our two dogs! I knew as soon as I met her that she was caring, responsible and perfect for the job, and the dogs loved her too! It was so nice not having to worry about our “boys” and enjoying our vacation stress free. It was very evident from pictures sent that she loved the dogs and they were in good hands. Coming home to a clean house after our vacation was another plus. I will definitely use Jaime again for upcoming vacations in the future!”
“Jasmine was such a blessing and truly met my needs and expectations. She took really good care of Bear while I was gone, playing ball, making sure he had his meds, and fed him each day. I would recommend her to anyone that is looking for someone that LOVES animals!”
“Evelyn is a super responsible home and pet sitter, our Golden girl Pennie just adores her! We are always able to enjoy our trip knowing our home and Golden girl is in very good hands <3”
“Ranae was the best pet sitter we've ever used. I HIGHLY recommend her!! The dogs warmed to her right away, she was great at communicating, sent us adorable pictures of the animals every day, and left the house immaculate. We will use her again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have helped take care of our family dogs since I was a little kid. I’ve also helped care for a few friends’ dogs, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I work full time at chick fil a 5 days a week. I usually work mid shifts like 7-4, 8-5, 11-5 about 4 days a week and I always do some type of activity with my dog before I leave as well as feeding and letting him out. After I am always down to having fun with the pups! I have a fenced in backyard with one very playful, sweet pup who wants to be friends with every animal he meets! He’s very energetic so we are always going to the nearest park (which is basically right behind my house) or on a walk or playing in the yard! I also love to take the pups on a joy ride to get treats or just get some breeze!
About: I have always had a dog and been the main caretaker. I love spending quality time with pets. I love to go on walks and take them to dog parks. I work full time but have ability to work remotely when needed. I am able to make lunch visits when needed or work from home. I have a fenced in backyard should your pet need to stay overnight. I would take dogs on walks in safe environments. Safety is very important.
About: I love playing with cats and dogs to make sure they get the attention they deserve i will do do anything extra to help the owner like take out trash ect. Almost everyday when I'm not busy i make sure i take my feed my cats ol L Play with them using their toys and give lots of pets I make sure they are fed well i take them for walks if something is wrong i will contact the owner and i make sure they are safe.
“Ramona was a wonderful sitter for our two pups. She is extremely responsive and communicates frequently. We felt very comfortable having her in our home while we were away and our dogs fell in love with her. She sent lots of photos and videos of our pups and actively played with them in the house and our backyard. Ramona truly made sure they were cared for when we had a family emergency and had to leave the state quickly. I absolutely recommend her if you need someone trust worthy and honest!”
About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets throughout my life and feel comfortable working with animals of all kinds! I’ve always had both dogs and cats in my home. I’m confident handling animals of all ages, from young to senior, and I’m experienced in administering medications when needed! I take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care and adapting to each pet’s unique needs and personality💕 my dog Ivy is a built in bestie for your puppy while they stay here! She loves big dogs to play fetch with !!! Being home during the day allows me to give your pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day!! Love taking puppers on walks, grooming and love giving treats! My flexible schedule also means I can accommodate SAME DAY bookings, so feel free to reach out—even for last-minute needs!😇 We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as a crate available if your pet prefers or requires one.

About: As a dedicated veterinary assistant I have a lot of experience with various animals' needs and an adept ability to give my pet patients and clients the greatest sense of love and care. Over the course of many years I have worked with livestock, dogs, cats and pocket pets in one form or another. I am very confident and proud of my animal handling skills and devoted to providing the best, most tailored care to each individuals' needs. My schedule is relatively flexible and I am more than happy to work out a plan the benefits both my clients, their pets and myself. I have a fenced yard and many parks in the general area that my personal dogs and I regularly visit. I am a firm believer in appropriate enrichment for a healthy life for all animals.
“Our cat Luna was a pandemic kitty and thus, has some separation anxiety, but Yasmina was super patient with him and got him to come out of his shell! It was our first time having someone house-sit but Yasmina sent pictures and video updates of Luna that eased our worries, and she left our place as clean as she found it! She was also super flexible and we really appreciated that!”
About: Hi! My name is Darius and I truly love being around animals. I don't have any right now, but I've had pets almost my entire life including a yorkie, two pomeranians, three cocker spaniels, a foster kitten, and a German shepherd. I used to live with two adult cats, but my ex got them in the breakup sadly. Fortunately, I've got another friend with older cats that lets me check on them when she's away. More recently, I've been the go-to pet sitter for my friends because I have a big house with a fenced in yard and a lot of squirrels to yap at. Long story short, I just want your baby to feel loved and taken care of while they're away from home. I'll be with them most of the day because I typically work from home. As long as they don't mind chilling around the house, walking around my beautiful neighborhood, or chiming in on the occasional business call, we'll get along great. Like I mentioned, 99% of the time I work from home M-F. I might occasionally go into the office but only for a 2-4 hours max. Three days a week I go to the gym for an hour but for the most part I'll be working, chilling at the house, or outside exploring the neighborhood with my new furry friend. I like to curate a calm, peaceful environment that's full of love for your pet to feel relaxed and at ease during their stay.
About: Hi! My name is Helen. I enjoy spending time with animals, and taking care of them. I have experience looking after 2 dogs in the last couple of years - Charlie, the Labrador, for my brother; and Freya - a glorious mutt - for my friend. I've looked after them while their owners were away overnight, as well as hung out and taken them for a run in the park or the beach, just for fun. For pop-in visits, feeds and walks, I am available from 4.30am to 9pm. I can also stay at your home overnight, or take care of your pet in my home. I can look after the pet in my home, and I have 2 beautiful, friendly dogs (Poodle and Poodle-Shitzu cross) in my home for your pet to play with, if appropriate.
“Carol was amazing house sitting for my dog! I could tell how much of a dog lover she is and knew my dog would be in the best of care! She kept me updated and shared pictures during my trip! She left my home clean and tidy as well! Highly recommend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,226 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Harrisonville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Harrisonville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Harrisonville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Harrisonville 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!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
