About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up with dogs taught me not only how to care for them, but also how to understand their unique personalities, needs, and routines. For the past 13 years, I’ve provided trusted pet and house sitting services for families, caring for pets as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I understand how important it is to maintain their routine, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and create a safe, comfortable environment while you’re away. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a familiar and caring presence, I’m committed to making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands. As a full-time artist, I have a flexible schedule and don’t work a traditional 9-to-5 job, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, whether that means drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, walks, administering medications, or simply providing companionship and comfort. Because I work independently, I can be flexible with scheduling and am often available throughout the day for check-ins and updates. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I make it a priority to maintain their routines so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, and I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely so pets can stay in a familiar environment with minimal disruption. This includes feeding schedules, walks or litter box care, playtime, medication if needed, and any specific routines or preferences your pet is used to. I also focus on giving pets plenty of attention and companionship so they feel calm and secure while their owner is away. I’m very mindful of keeping the home clean and respecting the space, and I always provide updates so you know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s dogs or cats, my goal is to create a stress-free experience where your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for until you return.
“Absolutely wonderful! Paloma let me know when they were on their way and was super sweet and kind. Even ran with Percy a few times at my request and he came back wiped- goal achieved! Will def be back again! Tysm!”
“Can’t imagine having a better person to walk our dog, Guinness. Clearly loves dogs, conscientious, punctual and an easy going personality. Not to mention Guinness LOVED him immediately. We are very pleased and look forward to having him back.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and hands-on experience I bring to every dog I care for. I raised my own dog, Ivy, through every stage of life, which taught me patience, training basics, and how to truly understand a dog’s needs. I’m comfortable with puppies who need structure and positive reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who may need slower walks, medications, or extra TLC. I treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I naturally plan my days around walks, outdoor time, and being home. I enjoy starting mornings with fresh air and walks, staying active during the day, and winding down with relaxing time on the couch — perfect for giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Caring for animals feels like a normal part of my life, not an extra task In my home, I keep a calm, clean, and safe environment where pets can relax, play, and stick to their normal routines. They get regular walks, exercise, potty breaks, and plenty of cuddle time. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s schedule closely so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m mindful of feeding routines, medications, training consistency, and keeping your space tidy. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away.
About: What sets me apart is how attentive and caring I am with every dog I watch. I’ve been pet sitting for about 5 years for family, friends, and the nanny families I’ve worked with, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and routines. I have experience with walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m very patient, dependable, and pay close attention to a dog’s behavior and needs. I also know how important communication is, so I always keep owners updated with messages and photos. I treat every dog like family and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. As a recent college graduate, I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week for pet care. Aside from occasional job interviews or appointments, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care on both weekdays and weekends. With my open schedule, I’m able to be very attentive and make sure pets get consistent care, plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. I care for every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. In a client’s home, I do my best to stick closely to the pet’s normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any specific instructions the owner provides. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. I’m very attentive to a dog’s behavior and comfort level, and I always prioritize creating a calm, safe environment. I also know how important trust and communication are, so I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is being well cared for.
About: Hi! My name is Megan and I currently have three cats and a rat terrier puppy who 5 years old! Unfortunately in 2018 I lost my 14 year old Jack Russell Terrier. I love animals and have always had at least one pet in my life, usually cats and dogs at the same time so if you have cats too I'm good to go. I love hanging out with animals and would be thrilled to sit your whenever you need :) Since I have so many pets at my house at the moment, I cannot board dogs, but I can do anything else! I'm always ready to welcome new furry friends into my life, even temporarily. Please let me know if you have any more questions! I work full time in OP so I am able to drop in on pets before or after my 8-5 shifts and anytime over the weekends. I like to make sure pets are comfortable with me and with each other, so I don't have pets stay in my own home. This is because I have many of my own pets. I only watch pets in their own homes.
“Ron has walked our dog several times during the day. We appreciate his punctuality and ability to help on short notice. He came to meet our dog before the scheduled walk and we really appreciated it. Good communication as well.”
About: I have volunteered at Kansas City Pet Project since 2024 where I have walked dogs with many different attitudes, been trained to help socialize puppies and been trained in working with shy and fearful dogs. I’m available 10am-4pm for dog walking. I am available throughout the week and I am happy to work with you if you need a time outside that range. I am flexible! I care for all dogs and homes of my clients as if they were my own. Your dog will get all the attention and care they deserve!
About: I've had a dog ever since I was a child and I married into a cat-loving family so I have experience and love for both pets! I love being outdoors and active as I'm an avid runner in my free time. Walking pets outside is the best of both worlds! Midwest weather also makes chilling with them inside just as fun from time to time haha. I'm a flexible caregiver and my main goal is customer satisfaction. Reach out with any questions you may have for me before booking! I work full-time in a hybrid role from 8-5 and can take an hour lunch at any time. I'm consistently free mornings, evenings, and weekends. I'll always do my best to find a time that works for you! Respecting your home and leaving it just as good as you left it is something I pride myself in. Don't be afraid to ask me to complete any duties to clean up after your pet in addition to taking care of it.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Leawood
Cami has been so amazing to our puppy! She has walked him since we got him and has made us feel so comfortable and confident knowing he is getting taken care of. She goes above and beyond with communication, will take pictures of things requested by us, clean up any messes our pup made in our room during his time alone, and never cuts anything short. Our pup loves her so so much! We are so thankful to have her take such good care!
Dani has been walking my pup for the last week and a half and I couldn’t be happier. Dani is very respectful and asks a lot of good questions. My pup warmed up to Dani pretty quickly and her separation anxiety is decreasing. Could not recommend Dani enough to anyone looking for a dog walker. Thanks, Dani!
Really appreciated how Jennifer wanted to get to know our doggie better before she is boarding him in March. She genuinely was interested in what was best for him and putting him at ease. You could tell how comfortable she was with any situation and we can't wait for Zachy to spend some time with her!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Leawood. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Leawood.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Leawood. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
