“James was walking my dogs for almost 3 weeks. He was remarkably punctual . I have two large dogs and James was able to handle them both at once. He was great with my dogs and they loved him, they are still watching the door waiting for him to come and get them for a walk. I would certainly recommend James to anyone who is looking for a responsible and punctual dog walker. I will definitely use his services in future.”
“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.”

I work from home and have flexibility to care for cats and dogs. I also have three daughters that love cats and dogs as well. I also like to run and would love running or walking dogs. I am very friendly with dogs in cats in the client's home. I like to scratch them and make them feel loved and safe. I also like to walk/run with dogs and play with both dogs and cats.

“Hanna goes above and beyond to treat my dog the best he can be. She is super reliable and will always take great care of your animal. I appreciate all she does for my dog, and highly recommended for anyone needing great care.”
“Lulu has been wonderful! She has been walking my 10 month old puppy who was not great on a leash but seems to be doing well! My puppy cries for her when she drops her off! Lulu is very punctual and professional and has answered any questions I have. She also leaves a detailed report after each walk. I would highly recommend her!”
“Stephanie is a huge help. She walks Arthur twice a week and feeds him/ gives him more water while I’m gone. She’s super friendly, knows how to care for a dog who tries to eat everything and even puts my trash bins away on trash day. I would recommend Stephanie 100% to anyone who needs a dog sitter.”
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life! I’ve owned dogs, cats, suburban chickens, and thanks to raising boys, all other kinds of animals! I also help care for and ride my family’s horses nearby. In 2020, I helped my kids start a neighborhood dog-walking business, and they still have some of those same clients today! These days, I have three wiener dogs, and you might spot me walking all three on our beautiful KC trails. We usually give everyone a good laugh! I love the outdoors, dog parks, and exploring KC’s trails. I’m also an active CrossFitter, so I’ve got plenty of energy (and strength!) for your more adventurous pets, too. I can even transport your dog to nearby trails and dog parks for some extra adventure! I’ve called Glen Arbor home for nearly 15 years and love helping my neighbors care for their animals. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets like my own! I work in local real estate and coach volleyball at a nearby private school, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. The outdoors is my happy place! I’m an avid mountain biker and hiker, so I know all the great trails around KC, both near and far. Whether your pet needs a quick neighborhood walk, some playtime and companionship, or a longer outdoor adventure, I’d love to help! I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and your family’s schedule. I know firsthand that our pets are family! Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or heading out on a trail adventure, their safety and happiness are my priority. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routines, respect your home, and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know they’re in good hands! For special circumstances, please reach out! I’m very flexible and happy to accommodate unique needs. I also live on almost an acre with a fenced backyard and three little wiener dogs. If your pup would enjoy a playdate at our house, I’m happy to arrange one as long as everyone gets along!
“Kathleen is very knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. She keeps me informed when she is on her way and when she arrives. Kathleen provides updates on the walk, if needed. It is a pleasure and a relief to have Kathleen walking Bandit.”
About: I’ve taken care of and had my own pets since I was little. Growing up being the oldest sibling I had to do majority of the work for our pets. I am also in college full time so I enjoy doing this during my spare time instead of getting a job that requires a lot more mental/physical work. I would love to spend time and take care of your pet while you cannot. Currently I work in a nursing facility Monday-Friday evening shift for 8 hours. I am available to go on breaks in between my shift so you’re pet does not go without a bathroom break. I would have a nice talk with the owner of the pet regarding care. Some thing I would want to know is if the pet runs off easily, bites, doesn’t like certain things, when the pet eats, etc. If I was taking care of the pet in the clients home I would of course ask a lot more questions regarding where I take for potty brakes, where pet is allowed to be/lay, etc. I would try and make the client and myself as informed as possible.
“Madison was so great and came in last minute when I needed someone! She gave me lots of updates and checked in with me often! Definitely recommend!”
About: Hi Everyone! My 8 year old loves dogs and has been requesting that I pet sit so we can have more dogs around to love and snuggle. She wanted to start a pet sitting business but I told her she isn't quite ready to manage a business herself. I will be directly caring for and managing your beloved dogs but my 8 year old will be saving/earning the money for her college fund and/or future business (hoping we have a little entrepreneur :)) I work from home so am available during the day to care for and snuggle your babies as well. My kiddo is very sweet, gentle and understands how to treat and approach animals with various temperaments. I will be overseeing and managing all dog care but using this experience to help build responsibility and foster my child's caring nature. I work from home so am available basically 24-7 for direct care of any need. I am available most weekends but unfortunately, I do travel for some holiday breaks (which I know is when pet care is most needed but will try to be available as much as possible for those times that are difficult to find pet care.) Two houses with fairly large backyards in Prairie Village that are connected (see photos). If you have a pet that prefers to be alone or separated from other dogs (I have 2 very lovable labs), I can keep them separated at our second home that is right next door (currently being used as an office and grandmas house when she visits). I can also block off the access area between the two lawns if necessary. I am available to care for dogs in your house as well but would prefer to keep locations that are in very close proximity to Prairie Village only.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was a young child. Growing up, my family always had multiple dogs and cats. I grew up learning how to take care of them anytime my parents were out of town. I have experience taking care of dogs of all types, from young to old, and from big to small. I’m an elementary school music teacher, meaning I have more time in the summer! I’m a teacher, meaning I have the summers off! I’m available to care for your pets while you’re on a summer vacation or if you just need someone to take your dog for a walk while you’re at work. During the summer, I have a very open availability schedule. I have three pets in my home, 2 cats and 1 dog. I am a very astute pet parent, always making sure the areas around the house are clean and safe for them. I take my dog, Percy, on walks often. I am very comfortable taking dogs on walks, crating them if they need to be, and playing with them so they don’t get bored at home.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Leawood
Kylee has been so great with our Great Dane, Hank! Hank is a very anxious dog, but Kylee has been able to gain his trust more than any other walker we have had before. She is responsive and thorough, and super reliable. Recently we went out of town and we were so grateful to have somebody we could trust walking our boy. Highly recommended!!
Emma was absolutely wonderful! She took care of our dogs for almost two weeks, coming to our home every day to feed them, walk them, and make sure they were happy and comfortable. Our dogs absolutely loved her, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She also sent us updates every day, which we really appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our dogs. We highly recommend Emma!
Aaron was wonderful helping out with Mav. He came over before the first walk and met Mav in a nice, relaxed way. He spent time letting Mav get to know him and I felt very comfortable with him walking Mav. He came over when he said he would and gave Mav some good exercise on his walk. Very trustworthy guy and great with dogs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Leawood is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,586 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Leawood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Leawood. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Leawood after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
