“Lulu was amazing! She gave us daily updates and pics of our animals and took excellent care of them. I felt very good about leaving them in her care. She will 100% be our first choice next time we need pet care!”


“Taryn was great with our animals and very responsive with us while we were away. Can’t compliment her enough and appreciate with the quality of her work.”

“So grateful to have found Erin! She was so wonderful with my two dogs over the holidays! She sent me several updates throughout the day & left my home spotless. She has such a warm spirit & loved on my boys so well while I was traveling. I can’t recommend her enough!”


“Gabriella was fantastic! This was our first time with Rover and we had heard good things, but this helped us feel so much more comfortable. We will definitely use Gabriella again!”


“Kellie took such good care of my furbaby, Dexter. I was so nervous and was put at total ease as she updated me throughout the evening with notes and pictures! We will most definitely be using her services in the future. Thank you, Kellie!”


“Gave updates, took very good care of my dogs. Even when i was sick & unresponsive for a few days, she still gave updates and kept me in the know. I appreciate all the help & care she gave my boys! Super happy.”


“Virginia was awesome and took care of our pups while we were away for a week. House was left very clean and she even took care of some of my mail that was delivered throughout the week. She asked appropriate questions and double checked anything that was not clear with our instructions. She was very knowledgeable and you can tell she is passionate about her job while pet sitting. I can't think of anything that would have made this a better experience. I will certainly use her again in the future.”



“I am very happy that I found Michelle. She did an absolutely wonderful job dog sitting Snowee over the weekend. She sent pictures of Snowee playing and resting in the comfort of his own home. Snowee loved her so much that when she left he went downstairs several times to the door, hoping that she comes back in because he missed her already! I will definitely be rebooking with her and it is very comforting to know that Snowee will be in GREAT hands if I ever have to leave town again. Thank you x million!”



“Jennifer came to dogsit for us for the day. She went above and beyond all our expectations. So communicative, went through all our instructions, and really took the best care of our dogs. They were absolutely spoiled. She even managed to get our very anxious, afraid of the world dog to go out on walks, something we often struggle with. Jennifer was phenomenal! I would highly recommend her and look forward to using her again in the future.”


“Abby is wonderful and I would highly recommend her. We did an initial meet and greet and I immediately felt comfortable with her. We were gone for 11 days and Abby stayed at our home with our 5 pound Yorkie. We choose an in home sitter because our dog has major separation anxiety. Abby sent us daily updates and pictures and our dog was living her best life as usual!! We already have our next stay scheduled with Abby.”


“We are so grateful for the care Ellie provided our puppies (72 and 57 pounds puppies). She stayed in our home with them for 5 days and took the best care of them. Our puppies are active and energetic Doodles and require a lot of attention around the clock. Ellie went above and beyond to meet their needs. We will definitely book Ellie again. We could enjoy our time away knowing Ellie was engaged with our pups and made us feel they were in good hands.”


“Kelsey is Mr. Big’s favorite babysitter! She loves him and treats him like the king he is! ☺️ She is always our go-to when we are in need of a safe and loving sitter.”


About: I am a third year veterinary student in KC for the summer at an internship! I have worked as a Veterinary Assistant for 6 years now and have gained experience in handling and working with all breeds and sizes of dogs, as well as cats. I have also been petsitting for family friends for 5 years and have plenty of experience making pets feels comfortable while their owner is away. I am comfortable handling any dog or cat, with anything from giving medications to your senior pup to walks and exercise for the more energetic ones! I’m currently working full-time during the week with some evening hours available. I am also typically available all day during the weekend and on most holidays. As I am currently renting, I am not able to care for pets in my own home. However, I am more than willing to travel and take care of your fur-baby in the comfort of their own home! I have been trained on how to handle all types of animals with care and respect towards them, and would feel comfortable assisting with any training you are working with them on. Most of all, I absolutely love to hang out with any animal and would be honored to care for your fur baby!

“Emma did me a great service and booked an overnight stay with my pup very last minute when my original sitter backed out. Emma took my pup on a drive and took great care of her. She also sent updates and pictures throughout the night while I was at work, which was greatly appreciated! Would book again!”


“Russ exceeded every expectation. Constant communication, pictures, and play with our three animals. I would trust and hire him any time to watch our animals, stay at our house, and help out with anything we needed. 15/10, if that were possible. He stayed at our house and cared for our 4 month old puppy, our 5 year old terrier, and our 3 year old cat.”


About: I'm a cheaper sitter who likes animals. I've taken care of pets and understand that every pet is different. Thank you if you choose me. I am free all week, any time, anywhere within 50 miles of my location. I can do whatever you ask for a decent price. This is all I’m really doing right now. I follow instructions to a t and use common sense to fill in any blanks. I will not treat your pet less than the small or big chunk of dopamine that walks our earth.

About: I am a responsible and reliable person who loves animals, has had five dogs of her own, and wants to help others keep their pets happy and healthy. I’m currently working a shifted schedule. Saturday I am off most of the day. Sunday and Monday I am off the whole day. This is great for people with busy weekend schedules or long work days who need some extra help. I am also an early riser everyday, so I can let you run out of the door without worry or you can just sleep in and know your pet is covered. I ensure all doors are closed and locked when visiting your pup. If we’re leaving for a walk, my attention is fully on the safety of the dog. No matter what, I preemptively cross the street if another person or dog is approaching so we have a fun and safe walk.
