“Saige was a fantastic sitter! She communicated well and was very kind and timely. My cats were very well taken care of and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her hands, especially because they seemed to like her right off the bat which is not normal for them! We will definitely be using her again!”
About: Had dogs and cats my whole life. I have had as small of a dog as tea cup chihuahua and as big of a dog as a German shepherd and Great Pyrenees mix. Love cats too but honestly I'm more of a dog person. I have cat sit for friends and family before and happy to do that to!! I work full time in the operating room 7a-5:30p, except for Wednesdays and weeekends. I have two boys aged (age 3 and 5) every other weekend. Currently no pets but we've had dogs and the boys do well with small and big dogs alike. They loveeee cats. I let animals on my furniture, provide lots of snuggles, back/belly rubs, fetch, walks outside and happy to let off leash trained dogs roam in my backyard depending on the owners preferences and how well behaved the dog is. Happy to follow whatever schedule you need for you fur baby.
“Makenzie provided excellent care for my three cats during a long 10 day trip! The cats were very comfortable with her, greeting her at the door every day, including the shy kitty. Makenzie paid attention to details like a power outage due to a storm, potential frost affecting my outdoor plants, and damage to a toy that the cats chewed on. I highly recommend her, and would definitely call her again in the future.”
About: I work at a veterinary clinic so I see dogs and cats everyday (and I LOVE it). Working at a clinic has given me a good amount of knowledge on health issues and when situations are urgent. I also have two dogs and two cats at home who I take care of on a daily basis. I also have 3 frogs and I have had lots of different amphibians, reptiles, and fish. I will treat your pets like they are my own! I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager and it’s something I love doing in my free time. I do work full time at my clinic but I am available every Friday, most weekends, and every other Tuesday. I should be available to do multiple drop ins a day. I am very diligent and I pay attention to pets individual needs. I understand emotional cues and medical emergencies since I work at a veterinary clinic. I have worked as a house cleaner in the past as well and have been trusted by many clients (with or without pets) to make a safe and responsible entry and exit into and out of the house.
“Maddie was great with my 3 cats who are a little shy. She was able to administer medication to one and made sure she sent pictures of them all during her visits. Highly recommend!!”
“Nathan is terrific! His care for my Pastis went above and beyond. My return home included being greeted by a well cared for fur angel, and a walk into a totally clean home. Litter was swept up, trash was taken out, dishes were cleaned. Nathan checked in at agreed upon times with pictures and assurances that all was well. I cannot begin to express my appreciation for his professionalism and personal care for my furry companion. This first visit will turn into more. Two thumbs up!”
“Meggie is the best cat sitter I have ever had and I’ve had several! She goes above and beyond and most importantly she is incredibly affectionate to my shy cat Dexter!!! I can’t recommend her enough!!!”
“Kathleen was great! She followed my instructions, always kept me updated, and took great care of my fur baby. Wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m Halle, and I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years. I currently work as a horseback riding instructor, where I care for horses every day and have learned how important patience, safety, and reliability are when working with animals. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or lots of love and attention, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I have a flexible schedule and do my best to accommodate my clients’ needs. I plan my day around providing dependable, on-time care and always make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, potty breaks, and affection they deserve. I’m committed to keeping owners updated with photos and messages during every visit! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I treat every home with respect and every pet like a member of my own family. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away!
“We had a great experience with Emma checking in on our sweet cat! We greatly appreciated the updates and the photos. We could tell our cat was in good hands! We would definitely recommend and would happily have her watch our cat again!”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to travel for pet-sitting jobs and even stay overnight when needed, as long as there’s Wi-Fi so I can keep up with my classes. Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.
“Megan was wonderful with my 3 cats while we were out of town. I was worried the cats wouldn't warm up having a stranger show up to feed them, but Megan was patient and won them over. As a Rover sitter myself I appreciate the effort it takes to make that happen. I will be recommending Megan to anyone that contacts me to sit that I'm not able to do myself!”
“Ashley was wonderful with my cats! Even with one of them hiding the whole time, she tried her best to find him and still give him the care he needed. I will 100% recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter and will be using her services again when I need them!”
“Lily was amazing with our cat in our home, who is not the friendliest cat in the world. Lily was very dependable, has amazing animal skills, sent great updates each day, and went above and beyond when we had issues with our travel plans. I would not hesitate to use Lily in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Chantelle is obviously very experienced with cats and provided an environment to let my cat be as comfortable as possible. She offered a dedicated space and was very attune to my cats behavior. She was also very kind to me as I was a nervous mother leaving my cat child for the first time. She provided me reassurance, communication and care that saved my out of town trip, making the whole experience a success.”

Alaina was awesome with the care she provided Lucie. Although I was in an area that had limited cellular service, she still continued with her updated notes about her visits. It was very comforting to read when I was able to catch up. Lucie isn’t the easiest to get along with but Alaina read her “moods” exceptionally well. Thank you again Alaina!

Gracie liked Saige immediately, which came as a surprise as our cat likes no one. Saige kept to the schedule promised and documented each visit. It was nice to have the peace of mind of your pet being cared for properly. We will look to book Saige again for our next trip.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lees Summit is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $9 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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.

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 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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 sitter.
