“Taylor was absolutely amazing! Communication was outstanding from the first day and she continued throughout the time she watched our cat. She sent daily updates for our kitty, Bubbles, and even brought our mail in when we asked! We would recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a cat sitter!!!”
“Samantha is my go-to sitter for drop-in visits for my little guy. When I'm out of town I don't stress knowing he is in good care. She is a very dependable person who cares much about the pets she is taking care of. I would gladly recommend her to others as I know she will give your pets the same love and attention as she does mine. <3 Thanks again for watching Finn!!”
“Rachel did an amazing job with my reactive dog. This was our first time using rover, so I was a bit nervous but Rachel sent updates and many pictures everyday!! I will be booking again in the future🤍🤍🤍”
“Susan is hands down the BEST pet setter we’ve ever had!!! We had a bit of an ant problem while we were out of town for the weekend—Susan offered to pick us up some ant baits from Home Depot since she was planning on going the next day anyways (this was on my to-do list, but I didn’t have time to get them before we left for our trip, so I was so stoked to see her kind offer in my messages!) Not only did she buy us ant baits, but she carefully + creatively placed them around our kitchen, making sure our cat wouldn’t be able to reach them. Thank you, Susan!”
“Theresa took great care of my two cats while I was out of town. She was super responsive and gave daily updates with lots of pictures. She even got my shy kitty to come out from under the bed after a couple of days.”
“Noelle did such a wonderful job dropping in and taking care of my two mini dachshunds. She had great communication and I loved the sweet pictures! Will absolutely book again and would recommend her to anyone. :)”
“Nicole was professional and flexible and helpful throughout the visits, and very kind to our Petz. We would definitely ask her to look after them again!”
“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!”
About: I was raised taking care of cats and dogs from the time I could walk. I recently moved to the area and I would love to spend some time with your animal. I currently work an 8-4 maybe a little longer on some days, so I would be able to stop in after I get home at four or anytime on the weekend! I will be able to come over for drop in visits and give your pets a potty break and some attention or anything that’s you need to make yourself and your animals more comfortable!
“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've been caring for dogs since I was seven years old, ensuring they are walked, fed, and loved every day. Growing up with golden retrievers and currently living with a small pup, I have extensive experience with both small and medium-sized dogs. In addition to my personal pets, I have also provided care for my neighbors’ dogs and fostered puppies during middle and high school. My hands-on experience with a variety of dog breeds and sizes makes me a reliable and dedicated sitter for your beloved pets. I understand the importance of trust and affection in pet care, and I am committed to providing a safe and joyful environment for your dogs while you're away. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, or just keeping your pup company, I am here to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. I work in person 8 AM - 5 PM but am available before or after work. I work from home on Fridays and am available anytime during the weekend. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment. I adhere to your pet's routine for feeding, walking, and playtime to ensure consistency. I provide daily exercise, follow dietary requirements, and ensure they have fresh water. I spend quality time with your pets, offering affection and mental stimulation. I maintain cleanliness, monitor their health, and ensure their safety at all times. My goal is to provide personalized and attentive care to make your pet's experience enjoyable and stress-free.
“I needed recurring visits & Arrica was more than helpful with my dog! She truly saw my dog as her own & took wonderful care of him. Will be booking with her again if I need someone to drop in on him!”
“Rafaela was amazing with my cat and dog! They were both so comfortable and happy when I got home, and she kept me updated with photos and messages while I was away and even made me aware of a beeping noise that was coming from the laundry unit. You can tell Rafaela really cares about animals — my pets were in great hands and I would gladly book Rafaela again!”
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.
“Kellie did a great job caring for our furbabies while we were out of the state. She was attentive, responsive, and reliable! We will be booking with Kellie again the next time we travel!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Kansas City
Jasmine took such great care of our kitty! She was quick to respond when I reached out last minute about drop in visits and she arranged to meet our cat promptly. She was extremely sweet and kind when she came to our house and we can tell our cat enjoyed her visits! She sent detailed notes and lots of pictures of our cat while we were out of town and she even offered to water my plant! We will definitely ask Jasmine for help the next time we go out of town!
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.
Derek was great to work with!! Our cat Rini really liked him and he greeted her immediately when he came to our house for an introduction. He shared a few photos during his check in visits and was prompt in responding when we had questions and while setting up the visits. We will definitely ask Derek to check in with our cat in the future!
We had an excellent experience with Kara! From beginning to end, communication was prompt and meticulous. While we were away, she kept us completely at ease by sending lots of photos and detailed updates after each in-home visit. We especially appreciated how thorough she was in describing how each of our cats was doing—their moods, eating habits, playtime, and any little personality quirks that came up. She took the time to get to know our animals individually and cared about their comfort and routine. We would absolutely book with Kara again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and communicative pet sitter!
This was my second time leaving my two cats in Rafaela's care, and I have no worries about them when she's watching them. They can be shy at times but they really seem to be comfortable with her. She sends great photos & updates, and communicates well. I highly recommend her!
Jessica was a lifesaver! Someone had cancelled on us at the last min and we were scrambling to try and find someone to help drop in and feed/check on our cat while we were away during the holidays. Jessica found time in her very busy holiday schedule to meet up for instructions and stop by to check in on our cat while we were away. Truly a very kind person and did a great job making sure our cat was taken care of while we were away. Would absolutely recommend.
This was the first time I have had Claudia watch my two cats, and it won’t be the last! She is wonderful, paying attention to detail and had great communication. She was patient and loving to one of my cats who can be difficult. She was always on time and made sure to reach out with any questions. I’d highly recommend Claudia for any of your fur babies needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Kansas City on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,285 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Kansas City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 cat, 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, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kansas City. On Rover:

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.
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.
