“Taylor was great with my cat while I was away on a work trip. She sent photos of him each visit and effectively administered his medicines 2x a day. She’s thorough and helpful! Highly recommend!!!”

“Taylor did a fantastic job with my kitties! They both came out for her. She spent lots of quality time with them. My home looked and smelled clean when we got home from vacation, which never happens. She refilled my auto feeder when it got low and kept on top of the wet food and water refills. She even ran the vacuum and swept up litter kicked out of the box by my crazy young one. 10/10 recommend!”

“Samantha was truly amazing! Communication was always persistent and we got the best updates with lots of pictures/videos. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”

About: Hi!! My name is Alyssa, and I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter in the Kansas City area! I have experience working with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and any specific needs your pet may have. I also have hands-on experience caring for my diabetic cat, including administering insulin injections and monitoring routines. Because of this, I’m comfortable supporting pets with medical needs and understand the importance of consistency, timing, and gentle handling. Outside of pet sitting, I work in the counseling field supporting children and families, which has strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to stay calm in all situations, these skills I bring into caring for your pets as well. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and secure while you’re away and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I am getting my master’s, so I have some evening classes, but I am still able to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting during weekdays and weekends. Because of my schedule, I’m able to prioritize your pet’s routine, including feeding times, walks, play, and any medical needs like medications or insulin injections. I do my best to be reliable, on-time, and responsive to messages. I prioritize safety, structure, and a calm environment for every pet I care for. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any specific instructions you provide. I have experience administering medications, including insulin injections, and understand the importance of consistency and careful monitoring. In your home, I am respectful of your space and ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, especially for anxious or shy pets, and adjust my approach to meet their needs. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress environment where your pet feels cared for and you feel confident they’re in good hands.
“Keesha was a great sitter! She was took amazing care of our 12 year old Maine Coon. The daily drop ins for food, water and treats was just what our grumpy old man needed during our quick weekend away. Daily updates/photos put our minds at ease knowing he was in great hands. Highly recommend Keesha to care for your fur baby! We 100% will be using her again soon!”

“Jasmine has been a lifesaver for the 2 kitties! They were available on short notice and have gone above and beyond to help with the cats health needs. Jasmine was communicative and sent lots of photos! I would highly recommend Jasmine!!”

About: i’m a very responsible pet owner and lover living downtown. willing to give you an easy peasy experience while still delivering peace of mind. i’m already the go-to sitter in my friend group 🫡 i work a regular 9-5 in office only four days a week. i am able to prioritize pet care as early in the day as you want, and will always be able to come straight from work. fridays-sundays i am free all day! i have been urban living with my dog for 8 years, so i know the importance of routine and a good walk! i’ve lived with multiple cat owners as well, and always loved the opportunity to get to know the kitties.
“Rafaela was amazing with my two cats. They are anxious (like me) and they were comfortable with her immediately (rolled on their backs for belly rubs) which made me comfortable. She sent great photos and updates, communicated thoroughly, and I felt confident that the cats were well taken care of. When we met to exchange keys, she asked thorough questions and made sure she was prepared with all instructions. Rafaela is really kind, has a gentle energy with pets, and definitely understands how much humans cherish their animal companions. If I need a petsitter in the future, I'm definitely contacting her again. Highly recommend!”

“Lindsay is great with my dogs. She is flexible and always super helpful if my plans change, even going above and beyond when we had an out of town emergency. I don't have to worry when I know she is coming!”

About: **Cats-only boarding + Dog walking + Drop-ins** Adopted my fur baby over 2 years ago and have been in charge of pet sitting for my friends, since! I know the stress of leaving my pet in others’ care too well, so be prepared for daily proof-of-life pics from me 🤗 I’m also a type a med student, so you best bet my place is cat-proofed and i quadruple check anything that will come in contact with the pets ‼️ Pets will receive personalized attention based on need, but I will have my own cat here as well!! She’s very social and sweet, so she enjoys company. I have a room for your baby to acclimate slowly if need be :) My apartment has a pet elevator and areas to walk dogs, as well. I have a pretty flexible schedule this year, so I will be available at home for most of the weekend and weekday afternoons-evenings. I might skip breakfast if I wake up late, but keeping pet food out is non-negotiable ‼️ I clean litter boxes, groom, brush teeth daily. No cat-toxic plants in environment and all cabinets with household supplies are pet-proofed. Have a cat tree, cat tunnels, and plenty of places for cats to perch and scratch. I use Feliway Multicat calming diffusers to ease introduction between cats. I have experience giving my cat oral medications, training her to use an inhaler as well. My place is kept clean with a cleaning robot and weekly deep cleans.
“Super sweet to help out super last minute as we got stuck 10 hours away. Our poor babies had pooped inside and she picked it all up so we wouldn’t come back to a total mess. She was also amazing with our GSD who can be shy/timid. We will definitely use her again!!”

About: Hi! I’m Piper, and I’ve been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember! I currently have a dog and a cat, but I also have experience with kittens/puppies, elderly cats/dogs, injured cats, and sick cats. I also have experience with farm animals like goats and chickens-safe to say I love animals, and none are too big or small! At this time, I do not offer boarding as I do not have a proper area for your pet. My apologies! I am available 7 days of the week, and have plenty of time for your pet! I cannot sit overnight, however I can wake up bright and early to let them out, along with staying later at night to keep them company. My hours are 8am-12am, with some breaks in between to check on my own pets/run errands. I am unfortunately unable to offer boarding at this time. On walks, I do not allow off leash time unless you (owner) can provide a safe, fenced yard for your pup to play in. This is for your dogs safety! I follow instructions to a T, so please provide me with any medication/feeding information, as well as your typical daily schedule! This helps me make your pet feel more comfortable and ensures I’m meeting your standards when it comes to caring for them. This is required for full/multi day services.
“Jessica knows her stuff! She also booked with us last minute which was such a lifesaver during the holidays! Thank you Jessica!! We highly recommend her”

“Monica provided great care for my cat like she always does. she provided pictures and videos of him and also gave updates as she did the drop ins. Monica administered his insulin well and with care! My cat loves her!”

Kansas City cat parents share their Rover experiences
Regan did a wonderful job with the drop in visits. My dog really liked him and my shyest cat came out to see him, which I consider a good sign. Regan also made sure the feral cats had food and water as requested. Sent me photos & quick updates. I would love to hire Regan again when I go out of town.

The sitter was kind and my cats were okay when I returned home, which I appreciated. She followed the main care instructions and communication was good overall. However, I did notice that the visit seemed shorter than the 30 minutes booked, and I also had an issue with the automatic litter box running low on litter sooner than expected, which required me to book an additional visit. She mentioned not being very familiar with this type of litter box, so I would recommend leaving very detailed written instructions if you use automated pet devices. Overall, not a bad experience, but there were a few details that could have been handled better.
