About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my 10 years of hands-on experience caring for my own Chihuahua, a small, energetic little brown bean with a shiny coat. Through the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of small dog care, from daily morning and evening walks to preparing soft meals tailored to her needs. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to providing pets with personalized care, whether it’s ensuring they get the right nutrition, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I strive to make them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I work hybrid from home, which allows me to provide attentive care for pets. I'm available for boarding, house sitting, and check-ins from Thursday to Sunday. Additionally, I offer check-ins and house sitting on Monday to Wednesday from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM. I live in an apartment, but my complex is surrounded by beautiful trees and open space, perfect for walking and running around. There’s always something fun to do outside, whether it’s exploring nature or playing in safe, pet-friendly areas. Inside, I ensure a comfortable and secure environment, keeping toxic foods and hazardous items out of reach.
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life! My cats are my best friends, so I know how special a bond can be with a furry friend! My goal is to always make sure your pets are comfortable, respected, and happy. I'm currently only working part-time, so my schedule is pretty open! I have weekday + weekend availability, and you can always shoot me a message if you have any questions/concerns! I want to make sure your pet is taken with the best care possible. Every animal has their own quirks and personality, and I aim to make sure they are always comfortable 100%! I love getting to know animals and am happy to have a conversation beforehand to learn about them & make sure they are getting all the care they need.
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy with Kristina. She definitely gave me a peace of mind. She sent me pictures and I loved seeing my little kitty girl having fun! Thank you so much Kristina! 🤗”
“Ross was fantastic. My Cru can be a handful at times and he really showed up for me when she was not exhibiting her best behavior. He handled the situation professionally, calmly, very effectively and I am very grateful for his time spent with my two dogs. I could not have asked for more. I would definitely rebook him but that’s assuming he would even accept us again given her little spectacle she caused.”
“Alex has been doing drop in visits during the work day for our 2 pups for a few weeks now and he’s been wonderful!! Our 2 are polar opposite ends of the spectrum of personality/energy levels and he’s so great/patient with them both.”
“Lorrie was great. I had an unexpected funeral out West and Lorrie was able to step in and make sure my fur babies were loved. Lorrie was super flexible which is always a plus when you're planning on the fly...”
“Amber was wonderful with our cat. She was responsive, professional, and took some great photos to check in and make sure we got updates! Would definitely recommend Amber and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”
About: Hello! My name is Megan. I started raising dogs from the time I was 9. Im from Kentucky, so i’m quite used to farm dogs or bigger breeds. Currently, I have a German Shepard, Miniature Blue Heeler, a Beagle, and a Pit bull who live with me. Not to mention our cat, he kinda does his own thing. All of the animals I have are my children, I love them with every bone in my body. I hope you’ll allow me to love yours too! Currently, this app will be my job. I commute back to Kentucky about once every 2 weeks, and my dogs go with me! We do treat rewards for good behavior, and after every long ride they get plenty. I have a fenced in yard that all of our dogs run around in! Sometimes, I take them to the dog park to play with other pups. My German Shepard is still in training so I have a lot of focus on him. Walks are frequent, food is scheduled, and naps are always!
“Adam did an awesome job with my pups! Adam has cool vibes, communicates very well, and put my mind and heart at ease with my fur bumpkins. Even with a Reno project going on, Adam came through and assisted. Looking forward to the next time Adam gets to work with my trio!”
“I have used Kort several times now and Piper, my 3yr okd rottie, seems very content and happy when he is around. He is very considerate of my home, and my pets. He sends pictures amd messages to let me know how they are doing, and has no issue cleaning up if one of the pets make a mess. Thank you Kort for taking such good care of my girls.”
“Leta was wonderful. She was punctual, respectful, and also was very detailed when it came to providing updates which was much appreciated. I would definitely book her again.”
“Malika did a great job with house sitting and drop in visits with my dog, Dolly! Dolly is a foster pitbull who was recently pulled from a shelter, and she can be nervous around new people. Malika helped her relax and send lots of pictures and video updates!!”
“Clarissa is always so great with our dogs. She follows the instructions and gives them so much love. She is always on time and checks in with us often. She sends us a lot of photos. Most importantly, our dogs love her.”
“Desiree is always amazing! She takes great photos and leaves detailed notes so I know exactly how my precious cat-son is doing. I can go on trips/vacations knowing my son is in good hands. Because of this, Desiree is my go-to sitter and I am very grateful for her.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lawrence
Amber has been watching my cat for me for the last five years. My cat is older girl she’s 14 now and Amber is amazing. She’s perfect. She takes really good care of my older cat and I would not have anybody else. Take care of my cat besides Amber when I’m on vacation.
They made us feel really at ease about leaving our dogs for a long day. Knowing they were coming over to spend quality time with the pets, and not just a quick stop, was really reassuring. They clearly love animals and enjoy spending time with them. Highly recommend!

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 Lawrence. 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.
