“Christine was super flexible with our last minute need for someone to watch our dog while we were on vacation. Our dog came home happy and tired from a day of fun playing with Christine and her kids.”

About: I have dogs, puppies, kittens experience since 9 years old. I'm a very loving, protective, clean sitter. You can trust me in any situation. I am currently on summer break from school, I am available anytime of the day. I am very organized and if I sign up to work I will always make it on time. I'm very clean, it's safe where I live and it's running water, air conditioning, WiFi, food, I provide as much care as possible for guests and animals.
About: Please claim a a spot for the holidays early :) I have 2 years of dedicated pet care experience looking after a variety of breeds. I focus on creating a safe, fun, and stress-free environment for your pets while you are away. I love providing long walks, plenty of playtime, and lots of individual attention. Because I dedicate myself to pet care full-time, my schedule is completely open and flexible. I am fully available for overnight boarding, weekend stays, and daytime visits, ensuring I can perfectly match your pet's normal daily schedule. I love taking care of animals, and nothing is more important to me than making sure every single pet feels loved and safe. I have a secure fenced yard for outdoor playtime and can easily take your pet on long walks if needed. For pets who aren't well with other pets, I will make sure to reserve those days for ONLY that pet. Every animal deserves to be comfortable. I only accept pets that are friendly and comfortable around other dogs during bookings that require more than one pet. NOTE: For safety reasons, I cannot accept pets that are aggressive or lash out at people. Safety is my top priority, and I reserve the right to decline bookings if a pet is not a good fit.
“Stephanie took such great care of our two dogs during the five days of daycare. She was so kind and flexible with my work schedule. My dogs loved going over there and we'll definitely be using her in the future!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old. I am very good with following schedules, walks, food times, going out, administering meds, giving pets and hugs, etc. I have fostered dogs, owned and raised dogs, and love working with dogs of all ages and groups. I have extensive experience in working with senior dogs who may need a little extra time and attention. I’d be happy to take care of your pet while you’re away and you can be reassured he/she is in caring hands. Daily walks and dog parks? Not a problem! I work from home; so, while you’re away, I can be available in attending to your pet’s activities. I have a senior dog who is very dog friendly. We live in an apartment downtown and go on several leashed walks throughout the day and night.
“Nathan was great! Quick to respond and took our little guy for daycare on VERY short notice. No communication issues and we would definitely trust him to pet sit for us again.”

About: I am a dog-loving person who said goodbye to my beloved puggle after 15 wonderful years together. After caring for friends' dogs, I realized how much I missed having furry companions around the house and decided to open my home to Rover guests! I provide a calm, loving environment and are best suited for small to medium-sized, family-friendly dogs of all ages. Whether your pup is playful or prefers a cozy nap on the couch, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. My home has a large, unfenced yard, so all outdoor time is supervised and on a leash. I also live on a quiet dead-end street with very little traffic, making it a great place for safe walks and fresh air. Because I primarily work from home, your dog will have plenty of companionship and won't be left alone for long periods. I treat every Rover guest like they're part of the family and look forward to giving your pup a happy, stress-free stay! I work remote with a flexible schedule, so dogs are rarely left alone. If I do need to step out briefly, I'll follow your dog's normal routine—whether that's being crated, staying in a gated area, or another arrangement you're comfortable with. My home sits on a large lot at the end of a peaceful dead-end street with very little traffic. Although the yard is unfenced, I've always used leashes for potty breaks and walks with my own dog in the past, so supervised outdoor time is simply part of the daily routine. Your pup will receive one-on-one attention every time they go outside, and safety is always my highest priority.
“Stephanie provided excellent care for Elvis during his daycare! She sent me pictures of him throughout the day. I will be booking with her again!”

“Our puppy had a great time. He came home tired and just laid around the whole night. He acted just as tired as he does coming home from doggy daycare. Huge plus when you have a puppy. They took them on several walks during the day too! would definitely recommend and we hope Dennis gets to go back soon!”

“Sarah was amazing. This was our first time with a Rover and Lexi felt comfortable and apparently did well. I appreciate Sarah being patient with Lexi as she navigates our new schedule and doggy daycare.”

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of him. He loves hanging out with you. It's funny because we will tell him where he's going in the morning and he gets so excited!”


About: About Me: Hi, I’m Andi! My goal is simple: to be your pup’s second best friend and to give you absolute peace of mind while you are away. As someone who has personally raised and loved four dogs of my own, I know firsthand that pets aren't just animals - they are family. I understand how tough it can be to leave them behind, which is why I treat your pet's routine, comfort, and safety with the highest level of care and respect. When I’m watching your dog, keeping their regular routine is my focus. Whether they have a strict feeding schedule, specific potty and playtime breaks, or just do best in a calm predictable environment, I make sure everything goes smoothly. You can travel guilt-free knowing they are happy, safe, and sticking to their normal routines. Because I work from home most days, I am nearby to ensure your pup has consistent companionship and care. My workday structure allows me the flexibility to step away and manage whatever your dog needs, keeping their daily routines seamless. Mornings: The day starts with a timely potty break, breakfast and fresh water, with some morning companionship before I focus on work. Mid-Day: I am easily able to take breaks for mid-day potty runs, quick playtime stretches, or a walk. Your pup will have a buddy nearby throughout the day to ensure they feel safe and secure. Evenings & Nights: Dinner is served right on time, followed by an evening with walks, playtime, and cuddles. Before bed we'll do one last potty break and settle into a calm, relaxed environment. A Quick Note on Schedule Variations: While I am home most of the week, I do work from the office on Wednesdays from 7:00 AM to 2:30 PM. I always make sure dogs get a great morning routine and potty break before I head out, and I am right back in the afternoon for their next break. Additionally, I occasionally work a second job on weekends. If a stay falls over a weekend, there may be stretches where the pups are left alone, but they will always be safely settled and completely taken care of before and after! Because I view your dog as family, their safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. Having raised four dogs of my own, I know how to spot potential hazards and maintain a secure, low-stress environment. I only host or sit for one family's pet(s) at a time. Your dog will never have to compete with unfamiliar dogs for attention, and you don't have to worry about the unpredictable behavior of other people's pets. They get my full focus. I am incredibly mindful of open doors, gates, and secure leash attachments. I keep a tidy, dog-friendly space so your pup can lounge, explore, and enjoy a truly relaxed environment. Trust starts before the stay even begins. I never skip a Meet-and-Greet because I want to learn your dog's unique quirks, what makes them nervous, and exactly how they behave in different situations. If anything ever seems off—whether it's a change in their usual energy, appetite, or bathroom habits—you will be notified immediately. I treat your pup with the same watchful eye and care I gave my own.

“We just adopted our dog about a week ago and needed doggy daycare so we could be out of town for a day. We weren’t sure about leaving Sid for so long because he was still adjusting to us and our home. Our concerns were needless because Greg did a great job with Sid. We plan to book with Greg next time we need day care for Sid. Thank you, Greg.”

“Clover has done day Carr with Rocio once before and this time like last she was a tired and happy pup after her visit! So appreciate the communication and photo updates! Thank you”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Kansas City commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in KS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 718 sitters in Kansas City, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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 sitter.
