About: Hi there! I'm Derek, and I've owned my wonderful dog Scout for 5 years. Growing up with both dogs and cats, I've developed a deep love and understanding of our furry friends. I can't wait to provide your pet with the same care and attention that I give my own. Let's make those walks fun and enjoyable for your dog! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. As a full-time consultant working from home, I have the flexibility to provide ample attention to pets throughout the day. I have plenty of time in the early mornings and evenings for walks and playtime, and my Sundays are typically wide open, allowing for extended care and activities. Your pet's well-being will always be a top priority in my schedule. In my home, I ensure pets have a safe and engaging environment. My apartment complex features a rooftop dog park, perfect for regular play and exercise. Additionally, I love taking my dog to various parks in the area and enjoying long walks together. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I adhere to their routines and preferences, providing attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and any specific needs your pet may have. Your pet's happiness and comfort are always my top priorities.

Jennifer was FANTASTIC! Her care was top notch and I felt so secure leaving my kiddos with her. I genuinely think that one of my cats, Toast was disappointed to see us, and not Jennifer. She gave great updates and photos at every visit and we appreciated her so much! I will absolutely contact Jennifer again for care of our kitties.

Rachel was the perfect fit for my cat Ruthie! She connected right away with her. I love the report card details of observations Rachel made as well as the photos or Ruthie I received from her while I was away. I would highly recommend Rachel and Rover in general. What a wonderful service they provide with wonderful caregivers!

Sharon did a great job. My kitties were happy when I returned home. In the past one of them would have behavior issues, not using box, when we were out of town. Having Sharon spend an hour a day with them solved this problem.

I'm thrilled to have found Emma on Rover as my new go-to pet sitter for Popcorn (my cat). Popcorn warmed up to Emma immediately, and Emma was communicative and a real cat pro. I loved the photos she sent while we were on vacation.

Hallie visited Charly exactly when she said she would. I received emails and photos of Charly's food bowls so my mind was at easy. No photos of the puss because Charly is very shy around people she doesn't know, so that was not unexpected. I am very happy how this experience turned out.

About: I've had a dog of my own all my life who recently passed, and I've had a bearded dragon, fish, and other animals as well! I've been working with pets for a while now (walking/sitting pretty much everyday) in college and it's one of my favorite jobs I've ever had. I am just starting out on Rover, but I have a High Demand profile on Wag!, with 15+ five star reviews and 13 badges earned through customer satisfaction. I tend to be pretty chill and amicable for new pets, and I work well with seniors and youngsters alike. I just really enjoy meeting new animals and getting to hang out/run around! I'd love to answer any questions you may have for me, I'd even be happy to set up a call to chat face to face if it would make you feel more comfortable! I am on summer break from college right now, so I can make myself available for whatever time you need assistance! I am particularly available for long daytime hours and overnights for those who need a housesitter! I am great at de-stressing pets and am very flexible when working with new challenges. I also am completely able to keep up with pets that like to play and get out and about! I can even bring my own treats if you want!

About: I love animals and will provide care as if they were my own while following your instructions to the T. I do work from my laptop and it’s very flexible so my availability to you and for your loved ones needs are immediate. Day/night. This is fun for me, and yours! 😎 take your vacations and enjoy too if that’s a need! As a remote worker and business owner I enjoy having the fun life interaction of animals. They offer a change of pace especially if they want to walk or play. I have no issues with feeding and cleaning either. Pets are under our care and give us maximum trust to provide for them. I will do everything possible to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for your loved ones.

About: I'm recently retired and lost the best dog ever. I'm not ready for another. I must the walks and the playtime. I will do that with your dog. I'm retired so I have flexibility throughout the day. Weekdays will work the best and some weekends. I can work with your schedule. Just let me know. I would walk around your neighborhood and surrounding area. I can play inside too, if that's what your pet prefers. Cat's will always have my undivided attention when I visit.

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.

Jennifer is an absolute sweetheart and Louie loves having her as a sitter. He even goes to his kennel all by himself while I'm getting ready for work. She checks in regularly and gives me photo updates. The most important thing is that she gives him the care and attention I'm not able to give him while I'm at work. I book with her every week because I'm so happy with the way she takes care of my baby boy.

Taylor was so awesome. My hubs and I came to KC for a wedding and just needed a sitter for a few hours each day while we attended the wedding activities. Taylor was able to stay with Murphy on short notice. She took him to a park and played ball with him for a hour. We are so grateful to her. It’s hard to stay with an active dog in a hotel and Taylor just made it so easy for us and made our sweet boy a happy dog. 10 outta 10. Highly recommend Taylor for taking care of your fur babies. 🥰

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!

Cannot say enough about Kennedy. I had updates all the time and pictures and this is the first time I left my dogs in someone else's care and I was 100% comfortable with her! She was amazing and so caring for my babies. And my dogs loved her! Not sure they were even excited to see me when I returned...LOL. A 5-star dog sitter for sure! Total dog person with a HUGE doggy heart!!!! Thanks Kennedy for all your sweet love and care for my boys!

I was very nervous to leave my animals with someone for the first time and Jaden completely dissipated those fears! She was willing to come meet them beforehand and was super communicative! She was kind enough to help my dog with some unexpected heath needs that required passing meds and spent time with all the animals to make sure they were doing okay. I would definitely use her services again and refer her to anyone!!
