“Mark was a perfect pet sitter. He gave our dogs lots of attention including walks and belly rubs. He even got down on the floor to pet them. He would send a picture every time he went to our house to update us. He’s very professional and takes the responsibility of the dogs seriously. He loves dogs and it shows in how he treats them. We would definitely have him watch our dogs again.”
“Sophia did an amazing job taking care of our dogs, Prince and Caddis! Our house was spotless upon our return and our babies were so relaxed and well taken care of. Would love to have Sophia back again.”

“Michelle was awesome, super flexible with some schedule changes and was very attentive to my dogs individual needs. They loved spending time with her. I would for sure use her again when the time arises.”

“Christine is a great caregiver! My dog & cats were given excellent care. She stayed a week and kept in touch so I knew how they were all doing. I came home to very happy, relaxed pets because Christine was so good to them. She fed, walked, administered medication and even cleaned up after them.”

“Charlotte did a great job tending to my littles while I was on a work trip. The frequent updates and pics were appreciated. She was neat and respectful staying at my place. Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and communication I provide to every pet I watch. As the owner of two French Bulldogs who require medications and specialized care, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and follow routines exactly as instructed. I pay close attention to details, follow care instructions to the letter, and genuinely treat every pet like they’re part of my family. Friends and family constantly joke that in their next life they want to come back as one of my dogs because of how loved and spoiled they are. I also have a close personal friend who is a vet tech available to me anytime for added peace of mind, allowing me to provide an extra layer of attentiveness and support while caring for your pets. Pets are a huge part of my daily life and routine, and honestly, I couldn’t imagine life without them. My dogs aren’t just pets to me they’re family, companions, and the best part of my day besides my wife. My routine naturally revolves around making sure they’re happy, healthy, comfortable, and loved, from walks and playtime to cuddles and maintaining consistent schedules. I work remotely, which makes scheduling flexible and allows me to provide dependable care, consistent attention, and timely visits throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and giving them affection, companionship, and one-on-one attention, which is why caring for pets feels so natural to me. I truly believe dogs are some of the best humans we’ll ever meet, and every pet I care for will be treated with the same patience, love, and attention I give my own. I provide attentive, loving care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. As the owner of two French Bulldogs who require medications and specialized care, I understand how important routines, patience, and attention to detail are when caring for someone’s pets. I follow all instructions exactly as provided, from feeding schedules and medications to walks, playtime, and household routines, ensuring your pets experience as little disruption as possible while you’re away. I treat every pet like family, giving them plenty of affection, supervision, and one-on-one attention — which is why friends and family often joke that in their next life they want to come back as one of my dogs. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates for peace of mind, and I have a close personal friend who is a vet tech available anytime should I ever need additional guidance or support while caring for your pets.
“Natasha took delicate care not only of my pet, but of my space too. My cat is on the shy side and can be slow to warm up to new people, but I can attest that Natasha's energy can bring those types out of their shell. I occasionally received picture and video updates which I loved. I highly recommend Natasha--she's dependable, respectful, and trustworthy.”

About: I go the extra mile for the animals and the owners to make sure the pets are getting the best care possible. Respect is very important to me and showing respect to your animals and you is more than everything to me. I have taken care of (walked, home stay, drop-in) a variety of pets and will send updates and messages throughout our visits and time together. I love all animals but dogs have a special place in my heart ❤️. I am a high school student but get out at 11 everyday so I try and take advantage of that opportunity as it allows me to be flexible for your needs. I’m a very clean and organized pet owner! Their bowl of water is always filled and cleaned, I’ll clean up after your pets as needed, and the environment in which the pet is in will be tidy for you to come home to.

“Kristin stayed with our pups for three nights! She was very accommodating of their schedules and they seemed to be happy! She sent pictures daily and kept us updated on how they were doing. We would recommend Kristin to others!”

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats in many different ways. I have owned dogs my entire life, plus a few cats. I volunteer at the Humane Society in Kansas City while at school where I work directly with the shelter dogs. I have house sat for multiple family friends and am ready to take on new pups and cats! I am currently home from school for the summer so am looking to fill the time. I work part time as a server a few times a week. During the day I often just workout, read a book, or hang with my own dogs. I have fostered a dog before and can adjust well to your dogs needs. I’ve practiced crate training, furniture restrictions, and other small training tasks. My house has an open yard which my dogs are free to run around in when they are not on leash to go potty.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages. I love going above and beyond for your pets! I will play with them, take them for walks, and do whatever best fits their needs and usual routine.

I will follow all directions given to me regarding the care of your pet. I want to make them and you as comfortable and happy as possible!

“Leann did a fantastic job caring for our 2 dogs, one of which we adopted just 3 days before our trip and she was more than willing to take on a second dog! She helped him acclimate to our home and other dog and even taught him how to sit for us! She kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures and our house was very tidy when we came home. Would definitely recommend!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver to our 2 little dogs. Judy was absolutely wonderful with them and gave them the best attention and care while we were gone that week. Excellent communication throughout with pictures and updates and gave them so much love and attention. Took great care of our home and left things very clean when we returned. We will definitely contact Judy in the future to care for our little girls. So very grateful!”

Lakeland Shores pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mark did a fabulous job watching our dog. From the meet and greet to the final goodbye, Breck was in very good hands with Mark. I appreciated the great communication, and daily picture and video updates. Breck even had a playdate with Mark's pup. Mark not only took care of Breck, he also left our house in clean conditions. I highly recommend Mark for your pet sitting needs.

Maiya is fantastic! Great communicator and worked really well with our sweet pup. She not only took great care of our Cleo, but also our home while we were away. We highly recommend her- even though we selfishly would love to gatekeep her. ;) Thank you Maiya for everything. We look forward to working with you again in the future!

Leslie was absolutely amazing with our two Boston Terriers, Gracie and Gus! From the very beginning, it was clear that she truly cares about the dogs she looks after. She took the time to get to know both of them and made sure all their needs were met. I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care — she kept us updated, and it was obvious that Gracie and Gus were happy, safe, and having the best time. They went on fun adventures and came home relaxed and content. It’s such a wonderful feeling knowing our pups were so well cared for and loved while we were away. We can’t thank Leslie enough and will definitely be booking with her again!
