“Sharon and Glen(Eric) were great with Peanut, He enjoyed himself with them so much. It was evident of that with all the pictures and updates Sharon sent. We were able to focus on our show and not worry that Peanut was doing ok. We will definitely ask them to board Peanut again in the future.”

“Amanda was great! This is was the first time using Rover and was such a seamless process. She sent pics and updates throughout the time which reassured Kodiak was in good hands!”

“Abigail was amazing! We needed a last minute dog sitter. She was super quick to respond and was glad to help. We were gone for a couple days. She was very communicative, sending us updates and photos throughout. Abigail clearly has a love for animals and knowledge about caring for dogs. We’re so grateful for her accommodating our last minute request and would highly recommend her to other potential clients.”

“We are so glad to have found Dana. She has been open, flexible and attentive to Frankie who stayed with Dana for the first time for three weeks. She tore her ACL right before our departure and so arrive for her stay with medications and criteria for healing that certainly added to Frankie’s care. Dana was up to the task and kept us well informed of Frankie’s adjusting and her new friends that she made during her stay. It was a great experience and we would recommend Dana and hope that she would care for Frankie in the future. It was wonderful to have the peace of mind while we were so far away.”

“Jessica and her girls were great to my Lucy and Otis. Jessica sent daily update photos twice a day, morning and evening. She was just the right amount of communicative and provided a great sense of safety while we were away on a trip for five days. Her doggy Rain seemed like a great companion to also get some needed socialization for our Lucy who just loves being around other younger pups. Overall, I would recommend Jessica and her girls to anyone needing a safe place to keep their pups in the KC metro area.”

“Lauren was great with everything from special accommodations for our fur babies to meeting our needs as the pet owners. She kept us updated hourly/daily on how our puppies were doing and also sent pictures showing how much fun they were having. We highly recommend Lauren to anybody that is looking for a babysitter for their fur babies. While attending a graduation in Kansas seeing that our hotel is not pet friendly , we found her on Rover and that was the best decision we ever made. Thanks again so much Lauren and we appreciate you !”

“Michelle has a big heart for the dogs and spoils them with lots of love and toys. She has 2 adorable dogs of her own. We were happy to know she has a 6ft fence to keep my fence jumper in and safe. Both my dogs seemed happier and more at ease when we picked them up opposed to boarding. We would love for Michelle to watch our kids again sometime. Thanks!”

“RaeAnn and her partner took amazing care of Kennedy while I was away. She sent daily updates with pictures and embraced his weird personality and habits. He has horrible storm anxiety and she made sure he was as comfortable as he could be while it was storming. Truly the best dog sitting experience we’ve had!”
“Awesome boarding family. Anne went above and beyond for my untamed puppy. She had all types of activities for him and a family of fur babies that welcomed my little one with opened arms. Highly recommend!”

“Five stars are not enough to convey how much we love Abby! Our dogs love her and she is an amazing dog carer. Highly recommend and will use again and again!”

I have experience with big dogs, small dogs, dogs with quirks, dogs with special needs, and senior dogs. I have trained puppies and dogs alike; consistency, patience, and persistance is key! I have always loved dogs and they have always gravitated towards me. I love being outdoors rain or shine, and love to walk. I cannot wait to meet and love up on your fur babies. While your dog is in my care, I can assure you they will be relaxed and happy. Your dog is my number one priority. I have relocated to Kansas City! Dog walking and pet sitting has my full time attention for the foreseeable future. I am excited to meet new furry friends. :) While in your home I will abide by your rules and do my best to emulate your routine with your pet to eliminate any anxiety your dog may feel.

“Mikayla took great care of my pup while I was away! She sent a bunch of updates and pictures throughout the time my pup was with her too, which was so nice to put my heart at ease. I highly recommend her to care for your pup! 10/10 will definitely use her again.”

“Awesome experience! Our pup Odessa came back happy and relaxed. Juneall is a great communicator and kept us updated with pictures while we were out of town. Will be using Juneall’s expert ad professional service agan.”

“Mei was so sweet and her family was great with our little man. We were traveling through and asked about sitting at the last minute. She was responsive, polite, and even sent pictures that night. Next time I’m in town I I will absolutely ask her to watch Comet again. Five star service all the way!!”

“My fur baby had an extended stay, and by extended I mean 6weeks that turned into 7weeks that turned into almost 8weeks (due to circumstances not in my control); but Mackenzie was very flexible and accommodating, allowing me to pick up and spend time with my pup when I was in town. He always had lots of other doggy friends to play with or given space if he needed it. He has anxiety and I was so worried about him coping with being away from me but Mackenzie handle all his strange quirks well.”


“Miss Michelle was the most amazing sitter for our two dogs. Having never left either of them with a stranger before, we were very selective with who we considered and our choice couldn’t have ended up more perfect. One of our pups has a rigorous medicine schedule and she made sure to not only give the medicine at all the exact times necessary but also researched his condition so she was prepared for everything if needed. We received regular pictures along with adorable little “messages from the dogs” updating what our fur kids were up to. Michelle’s home is more of an extended stay personalized dog park than you could ever dream of with a boarding facility. We Look forward to working with Michelle for all of our future boarding needs.”

Katelynn was very good with communication. We appreciated that she was able to help with Buddy last minute. We don’t just leave him with anybody, we are happy we found a great sitter for his personality while visiting KC! We would book with her again if in the area .
Malavika is top notch! She is kind, accommodating, and cares about her clients - both human and feline! She went out of her way, at the last minute, to house our 2 kitties while we were traveling cross country and we appreciate her so much. I recommend her to anyone and give her an A+ rating! Thank you Malavika!
