“Gina was really great. This was our first time leaving our dog for extended time while out of the country. Gina sent updates 1-2 times a day and always let us know how it was going. We could tell our dog was being well cared for and having fun from the photos/videos. Would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“My pup loved staying over at Brandin’s! Highly recommend! I look forward having them care for my fur babe the next time we need a sitter! Thank you Brandin and Diana for taking such great care of my gentle giant! ❤️”
“Karrie is wonderful! She takes such good care of our fur baby, Lexi. Her home is clean which is important to us. This is more than just a job for her. She really loves what she does.”
“Aaron is our dogs favorite sitter and ours too! We can tell our dogs love staying with him and look forward to spending time on walks with him. He takes time to get to know their personalities and understand them.”
“A first experience away from a new puppy can be stressful but Tori and her family made it much easier knowing that Sadie was in great hands. We would happily have Sadie return as we have future boarding needs. Thanks again for caring for our important companion while we were away.”
“Natalia was great! My dogs were very well cared for & happy when I picked up. Her husband helped me out to my vehicle. My older dog has a hard time loading & he helped me get her in the vehicle. She was very generous and altered my booking because my son got sick at the airport & we had to cancel part of our trip & change to only 1 night instead of 4. She sent pictures & videos after only a couple hours & got our dogs comfortable in their home. Thank you very much!! Would definitely book again!”
“Super nice and able to accommodate my dog on short notice. My dog definitely had a blast and instantly made himself at home, playing with their dogs and getting cozy.”
“Brittney & Adam took great care of our pup while we spent a long weekend in Dallas. They were very accommodating and sent pics every day. We will definitely use them again. Thanks again!”
“Lucy is SO wonderful! She is flexible, communicative and welcoming. She made sure our shy girlie was comfortable and well taken care of. She provided photos daily and sweet updates! Whether you’re leaving your dog with her for a day or a week, he/she will come home happy and tired!!! 💛”
“Danielle and her family always take the very best care of Frankie! He literally gets excited and can’t wait to see them when we pull up to their home for drop off. Frankie feels at home when he is there, which gives us great peace of mind!”
“Jennifer took great care of Darby, which really put my mind at ease. She didn't do well at dog boarding, and Jennifer was the solution to our worries! We'll definitely book again!”
“Brittany and Franklin were great hosts! Our dogs loved running around and playing with Franklin in their big back yard and then relaxing with everyone at night! Brittany was great about sending updates of how the dogs were doing and very responsive about any and all questions. Highly recommend and we’ll be reaching out next time we head out of town!”
“Was perfect for our dog. Angie communicated and sent pictures regularly. This was the first time we have left our dog with someone besides family and everything went smoothly. I would highly recommend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lawrence
I cannot say enough good things about Steve! This was the first time Billie had ever stayed overnight away from home without me, and of course her first time was when I was out of the country for a week. Needless to say, I was a little anxious about how she would do. Billie is the sweetest girl, but she endured some cruelty in life before she joined our family, so it takes time for her to figure out new people and situations. Steve could not have been more perfect for her. He was so patient and kind with her, kept me updated, and honestly just made the whole experience so easy. I never felt like I needed to worry about whether she was okay, which meant more to me than he probably realizes. Being halfway across the world and knowing my girl was safe and loved was such a gift. I’m incredibly grateful to Steve for taking such wonderful care of her, and there is absolutely no question who I’ll trust with Billie the next time I travel. ❤️
Amelia and Matthew were a pleasure to entrust with Daisy. The meet and greet was very pleasant, and they asked great questions about how to take care of Daisy. I loved receiving the updates and pictures, and they were always very responsive if I had any further questions. I think Daisy will look forward to seeing them again, would recommend and have already booked a return :)
Tamber is a lovely person and great sitter. She sent regular updates, was accommodating of scheduling requests, and genuinely seemed to have a good time taking care of our dogs. Tamber is a good communicator and gave our pets the same love as if they were her own. I highly recommend Tamber for boarding and other care options.
Sarah and her son were wonderful with my elder dog. She took good care of the house, sent photo updates, responded promptly to all communications and overall was a pleasure to work with. When she returned the key, my dog was very happy to see her. That says it all.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in KS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
