About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and love them more than people so let me put all my dog-loving energy into spoiling yours! I work in education so am off during summer break (all of June through mid-July) and available to meet your dogs needs whether it’s a puppy working on training or a senior who needs to take it slow :) I work full time in education so have long break availability (winter and summer break). During the school year, I am mostly only available on weekends but can be flexible with some evenings during the week. Just let me know what you need! I will be respectful of your space when in your home. I can come in and out or sit and stay awhile to keep your pup company.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pets for family, friends, and neighbors. As a college student and athlete, I’m dependable, responsible, and active, so your pets will get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’m a full-time college student with a mix of online and in-person classes, which gives me flexibility throughout the week. I also play collegiate soccer, but I plan my schedule carefully and update my availability regularly. I’m available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks during my free time, as well as many evenings and weekends. I’ll always communicate clearly to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I will follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special requests to help them feel comfortable. I’ll provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always keep their well-being first.

About: I am an experienced house sitter, and I love helping animals feel safe and comfortable! I have a lot of energy to give to pets that need it. I work four days a week, and then have three day weekends. On the days that I work, I will spend all of the other time with the dogs I'm taking care of, and on days where I don't work, I might be out of the house for short appointments, but most of my time is spent at home. I am very detail-oriented, so I will make sure I follow instructions and schedules accurately. I respect the privacy of homeowners, and will gladly communicate with the client as much as desired.

About: I’ve spent 7+ years caring for pets of all kinds, taking the time to learn each one’s routine, quirks, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to help with puppies, seniors, and pets who need a little extra care. I work a full-time job from 10–5 on weekdays, so I schedule pet care around my work hours. I’m available early mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, playtime, or visits. When I’m with pets, I give them my full attention and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for, even with my regular work schedule. I provide attentive, patient care whether I’m at your home or mine. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, playtime, walks, litter box care, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. If pets are in my home, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family, giving plenty of attention, cuddles, and play. I always prioritize their happiness, health, and comfort.

About: I have cared for my friend’s dogs while they are away many times. I enjoy providing animals with enrichment and making sure they get ample exercise. I am careful around new dogs to let them show me what kind of care they prefer, and strive to make my time with them as enjoyable as possible for both of us. I have full time evening employment. I am available to care for pets Sunday-Thursday 9am to 2pm (meaning my latest available visit would start at 1:30pm for an 30 min visit), and All day Fridays and Saturdays! I have lots of experience with sneaky animals who love eating things they are not supposed to eat or hiding in places they should not be. I am diligent with putting away foodstuffs and making sure doors/ screens are shut. Please let me know if your pet has these behaviors so I can be prepared before the visit.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats and have taken care of them since I was a little girl. I was very close with all my pets. Growing up I was a main caretaker for two dobermans and a cocker spaniel, teaching me many responsibilities in petcare. I am a full time student. I take part time online classes during the summer, and only have small time commitments throughout the week, regarding my health. This leaves me with a lot of flexibility to tend to any of your pet care needs! My top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a positive environment for your furry friends! I aim maintain trust by communicating openly with you, providing regular updates and photos during our time together so you can see how your pet is doing. I focus on creating a comfortable and stimulating environment tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether it's engaging in playtime, ensuring a routine, or providing plenty of love and attention, I aim to make your pet feel at ease while you're away. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I look forward to giving them the care they deserve in familiar surroundings.

About: I started my experience caring for dogs in High school. I would spend my nights and weekend going to the local shelter to walk, play and even read books to the dogs. I have experience with bottle fed orphans all the way up to geriatric pups. Rest assured, no matter what stage your dog is at, I can meet them at the caring need they require. I enjoy spending my time with dogs, watching them play, grow and thrive! I currently have a flexible schedule and am able to spend a lot of quality time with your pup. We will go on walks, play fetch and send you lots of pictures to bring a smile to your face. I'm more than happy to work to accommodate special requests for the low and high maintenance dogs alike!

About: Hey! I’m Brendan. I’m new to Rover, but I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I currently live in downtown Kansas City with my two best friends, Malakai, an 8 year old Siberian Husky, and O’Malley, a 3 year old Frenchie, so I’m very comfortable with both high energy dogs and smaller companion breeds. I work from home full time, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, and I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work from home full time, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. My dogs already keep me active with walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day, so adding another furry friend to the mix feels pretty seamless. I’m home most of the day and have a flexible schedule during both weekdays and weekends. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first with me. I live in a pet friendly apartment downtown with plenty of walking areas nearby, and my two dogs are both very social and friendly with other dogs. I’m also comfortable crating your dog if preferred or following any routines, feeding schedules, or care instructions you already have in place to help them feel at home.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, have fostered in the past, and continue to care for my friend’s pets while they are away. I am open to house-sit, drop in, or go on however long of a walk your best friend needs. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets in their own homes, making sure they are safe and comfortable. I have experience with different breeds and temperaments - cuddlers, partiers, grouches, and loungers all deserve love! I can’t wait to spend time with your best friend and give you peace of mind. I work full time, but work from home Mondays and Fridays. Currently I could do drop-ins and walks anytime Fridays through Mondays. For Tuesday through Thursday, I would only be available early morning and evening. I’m available any day for house sitting stays which includes overnight care in your home with evening and morning routines. We can discuss if midday drop-in or walk are needed on the days i’m in the office. Drop-ins include feeding, water refresh, play/potty time, and quick updates. Walks include a 30-minute walk at your dog’s usual pace, leash handling, water refill if needed, and notes to the owner. If your dog needs longer than 30 minutes, Incan also do a longer walk for an hour. I make a point to ensure pets are following their schedules and any training they are working on. I always make sure to double check any needs/wants with the owner, to make sure pets are at their most comfortable. Let me know how your pet thrives in their environment, the more details the better! I will keep you updated on anything you specifically ask, or of any questions I might have that will help me get to know your pet better.

About: Hi everyone! I am an animal lover and would love to help you out by letting your pets out during the day, taking them on walks, or even watching them while you are out of town. I have grown up with both dogs and cats all my life, as of right now though I currently only have a cat but love dogs just as much. I’m extremely patient, understanding, and trustworthy. I’m comfortable with both large and small dogs, and of course puppies! I am flexible with whatever your pet’s needs might be, just let me know and I’m sure we can figure out a way to provide them with the care that they need. I look forward to meeting you all and your pets! I currently work full time during the week but free in the evenings. I am available during the week after 4p and anytime on the weekends. I currently live in an apartment so if pets stayed with me, they would need to be comfortable with cats and quiet due to apt living. I am comfortable coming to your house and looking after dogs or cats.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Kansas City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Kansas City on Rover is $13.91 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 2,536 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Kansas City. 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 Kansas City. 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 Kansas City.

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 Kansas City. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
