Hollys communication is great! I appreciate that she was willing to cut walks short during a heat wave and hang with Pepe inside a little bit to give him the full time together!

About: As a lifetime dog owner plus having trained my own therapy dog, it is essential to understand the characteristics of each breed and listen to their owners. I am currently retired and have a passion for helping people. I think it is essential to have a mature, dependable person you can count on. Caring for pets in the client home requires listening to the client and being aware of any special circumstances. This way the pet feels security with a known routine.

Ashley is great! Our dog, Arlo, is a 75lb, 8 month old puppy and while he is the goofiest, most loving guy...he can also be a pain in the butt sometimes. Ashley handled Arlo (and our home) with great care. She is reliable and has great communication. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and loving dog walker!

About: I absolutely love taking care of home pets! You will feel stress-free with me while taking care of your animals until you return home. I believe that animals need more love and care than just being let outside and fed. I have house and pet sat for two summers now, and I really love it! I am home from college, looking to have a simpler job during the summer! I am fully available all week and usually the weekends as well unless I'm on a trip! Very open to anything. I have a fenced yard for my pup at home, which helps them have more fun outside! I could also crate the animal if that is what is needed.

About: Before I had children, I had a pointer puppy. She was my world and I adored her like a child. I have had pointers, a springer spaniel, horses, a bird, a series of reptiles and cats since. My late husband was a rural veterinarian, so I am comfortable giving medication to pets. I am currently out of work and have a lot of free time during the week. I am also available most weekends. I can help with your busy schedule! I treat pets and homes as if they are my own. Your space will be cleaner than when you left so that you come home to a relaxing environment. I want to do what is most comfortable for your pets so I will keep their routine as closely as possible as when you're home.

About: I keep water out all day so they are not thirsty. I feed my dogs once in the morning and then before bed. I take them put multiple times a day either to potty or play but they are always on the leash. I play with them inside also. I'm a big cuddler with pets if the animal will allow me haha. They are allowed on furniture bed or couch does not matter. My daughter is a big animal person too she loves both dogs and cats and will sit there and watch TV with them or even fall asleep on them haha. I have had 6 years of personal experience with animals they have not be consecutively but all together it has been 6 years. Im a stay at home mom so im pretty available aside from the random appointments. I have 3 kids that all love animals and always want to play with our own animals or help feed and water them. They want to be the ones to let them out to potty and feed them. I have a big fenced in yard for the dogs and kids to play and run in. They are allowed on furniture so we all cuddle up on the furniture. I also have some dog toys. I can offer a separate space for those dogs that want to me alone.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals (some were rescues and some came from the farm) and now share my home with two cats, so I know that every pet has their own personality. Over the years I’ve provided pet sitting for friends, family, and the military community, offering drop-ins, dog walks, and overnight care. I also volunteered as a foster for dogs and cats, including high-energy puppies and even a senior hospice dog. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs—including administering medications. With my nursing background, I bring patience, responsibility, and attention to detail, while my experience as a military spouse makes me adaptable and dependable. Most of all, I want pet parents to feel secure knowing their animals are safe, loved, and cared for while they’re away. I am currently a stay at home wife, supporting my husband in his military service. And that gives me free time to spend with our loving furr family members and provide the same care to other pets. My schedule is very flexible to help other families out. In my home, pets are treated like family. They’re welcome throughout the house, and depending on the owner’s preference, they may join us on the couch or bed. We have a fenced yard, and I provide potty breaks every 2–3 hours (or more if needed), with daily walks in the cooler morning and evening hours. New pets are introduced to my own cats slowly and safely, using baby gates and separate spaces if necessary. Anxious pets are given a quiet room of their own, puppies enjoy extra playtime, and seniors receive the gentle attention they deserve. I ask owners to share their pet’s daily routine and favorite items like beds, blankets, or toys, so they feel right at home. Every day, I send photos and videos to keep owners connected and reassured that their pets are safe, loved, and comfortable

About: I have had experience with cats my whole life, dogs about half. I own two cats and have had them since I was born, but I have had friends and family with dogs along the years. I pet sit often for my Uncle and Aunt for their three dogs, and other family members for their dogs and or cats. I have plenty experience walking dogs, taking them outside, cleaning up after both animals (litter boxes or not), as well as both playing and feeding them! I am currently working part time, so I will have a decent amount of time to care for your pets! My timeframe does vary, but I am very punctual and flexible with my times. I am unavailable most every Sunday, but I will always let you know what works best for me so I can help you out! I love getting to know their personalities and sitting or playing with them, no matter how mellow or how excited! It is very important to me that I learn their boundaries and behaviors so I can give them my best care, like offering my hands out for them to smell or standing or sitting a certain distance away from them until they are comfortable with me.

About: Growing up in the country, I’ve had years with our dogs, cats and many other animals! Raising and wrangling 3 puppies from the shelter, we had them all 13 years. We had cats from birth to grave, and cared for them inside, outside and in the barn! I love to care for your pups and kitties, now that I don’t have any of my own. I keep our home and little one alive and well, and love to add a dog to our daily walks! I’m flexible during the morning+afternoon, and available some Saturdays as well. Although we don’t have space for our own pup right now, I love to come make sure your pups are well taken care of! I’d love to help, whether it’s just a check in and friendly pat, or a walk and belly rub!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for 5 years. I’m experienced with pets of all kinds. Newborn and elderly pets, healthy and sick pets, small and large pets. I’m used to dogs who are untrained and can handle pets on the wild side. I’m a full time student at UMKC, and have classes two days a week. The longest stretch of time the pets would be alone would be about three to four hours. My schedule is flexible other than my class times, and can accommodate your pets needs. My services offer taking care of your pets in their homes, so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I can fit my schedule around your pet, letting them stick to their normal routines.

About: I’ve also had guinea pigs and rabbits and birds and goats. I love all animals and am happy to care for them no matter what shape or size. They all deserve love and attention and as long as I have solid instructions then I got it covered and they’ll feel like they’re my own babies. I’m currently unemployed. I’m getting certified to sell insurance and am home. I have two children in pre school and elementary school and the extra money would help a lot in this transitional period. I can happily come to your home and give your animals all the love they need. I’m in an apartment so coming to my home isn’t available currently but I can do check-ins or extended stays at your home depending on what you need.

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: I have three dogs, two wonderful twin golden retrievers that are 5 years old. They are my whole world and so are my sister and brother’s dogs/cats! My sister has been doing rover in KC for over 7 years so it’s been a great way to experience rover and the necessities for all kinds of pets. Additionally, I’ve been a volunteer at Unchained Melodies puppy nursery and KC Pet Project for the last few years <3 I’m currently a post-graduate student preparing for medical school here in a year so I have a lot of time for longer term pups. I’m preparing for work part-time as well in the fall but I have a very open and flexible schedule. I have helped dog sit for years now and of course I’ve taken care of my own dogs since they were just babies. Unfortunately, I’m unable, for the most part, to have animals stay at my house however, I’m open if necessary. I walk and feed my own dogs daily and they take a lot of space so I want them to feel comfortable in their own environment.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 416 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Holden. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Holden. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Holden.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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 walker 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Holden. On Rover:

  • 78% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
