About: I have always had a passion for animal care and have been involved with Rover since 2016. In addition to my years with Rover, I have a background in veterinary care, which means you can breathe easy knowing your fur baby is in safe hands. I have two sweet cats at home, so I mainly offer house-sitting services. This allows your pets to be in a familiar place and stay on a routine. Your pet's safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities. I love balancing fun playtime with structured care, and I will keep you connected with updates at least twice a day. My lines are always open—please feel free to reach out with any questions! My part-time job at a veterinary lab offers excellent flexibility for house sitting. I maintain a reliable routine and will never leave your pets unattended for more than 4 hours during the week. When house sitting, your home and your pets are treated with the utmost respect. I prioritize routines, house rules, and pet safety. Because of my veterinary background, I am always hyper-aware of subtle changes in a pet's behavior or health, ensuring they stay safe and happy under my watch.
“Kendall was great with our dogs! We were able to book with her last minute on the same day, which was super helpful as our trip was last minute. She took great care of our dogs and sent pics for each visit. She even bought our puppy a toy which was super sweet of her to do. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: I fell in love with my high school best friend’s beautiful cat, Tiger. Which taught me the value of furry companions. Later on in life, I went on to get my own pets, my dogs, Mahrie, Jiraiya, and Xavier. Getting dogs of my own taught me a lot and brought a lot of love to my life. I also helped one of my neighbors care for pets they would foster as well. which taught me even more. I am off work on Sunday and Monday. So I am available on these days. I work from 2:30-11pm Tuesday thru Friday. I can come at night and before work and early in the morning! I provide play and enrichment (for cats and dogs) both indoor and outdoor. I do walks as well. I love to tucker them out with play though. It’s fun for both of us.

About: Hi! I’m new to Rover and would love the opportunity to earn your trust and care for your furry family members. If you’re looking for someone dependable, loving, and experienced with dogs of all ages and personalities, I’d be honored if you’d book with me and help me get started on Rover! I have found a passion for being kind and loving to every dog I meet. I’ve noticed I’m naturally great at bonding with dogs and gently helping with training. What better way to fill my cup than by spending time with animals while helping people feel confident their pets are truly cared for? I currently have two dogs: JT, a Jack Russell Beagle mix, and Miss Kahlani Ann, a 3 year old Rat Terrier Corgi mix. I adopted JT when he was 5 years old and have helped him adjust to stairs, car rides, and a daily routine that includes dog park visits. Kahlani Ann keeps life fun with her playful personality and energy. Before them, I shared 10 incredible years with Stewart, my soul dog, who joined me for road trips, everyday life, and miles of running together. Stewart shaped not only my love for animals but how I love them: deeply, patiently, and fully present. I also had a dog named Hoagie for 17 years. He sparked my lifelong love for dogs and taught me just how special the bond between people and pets can be. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to seniors needing gentler attention. As a teacher, I bring calm energy, structure, and clear communication to every interaction. Whether your dog needs exercise, affection, or quiet companionship, I treat each pet like they’re my own. I truly understand the emotions that come with leaving your dog because pets are family. I’ll always go above and beyond to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet feels safe, seen, and cared for. I’m currently off for the summer, which means I have full availability for pet care — especially daytime walks and drop-in visits. This is the perfect time for me to give your pet consistent attention, playtime, and companionship while I build a strong routine with these services. As I build my Rover presence, I’m offering discounted rates for my first few clients. Just reach out and let’s chat! As the school year begins, I’ll continue to offer evening and weekend availability, along with care during school holidays. I'm currently focusing on getting drop-in visits and walks running smoothly and will always do my best to work around your pet’s needs and your schedule. When I care for pets in their own home, I treat the space with the same respect I would want for mine. I follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules to gate locks — and take time to learn your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I do love to be outside and play with our pups if they won't leash walk as well. We will spend the time together! I make sure doors are locked, leashes are secure, and that your pet is never rushed or overwhelmed. I build trust by being consistent, calm, and communicative. Whether it's a walk or a drop-in, I always take time to greet your pet with warmth and patience so they feel safe while you're away. I also send updates and photos, so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a positive, low-stress experience — one where your pet feels loved, and you feel peace of mind.
About: I have been pet sitting for over 10 years. Not only have I taken care of my dog since I was 8, but I also now have kittens of my own who I love dearly. I deeply care for animals and see them as part of the family. I promise to care for your animals with the same love as I do my own. I am currently home from college for the summer, so I have a very open schedule! I am very flexible with the days and hours I do pet care, so I am always able to work with you! Since I have two new kittens, I will not currently be offering in-home care where I live, but am happy to work with you on visiting in your home where your fur baby is already comfortable!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lees Summit
Sidney did an awesome job! Our dog was well taken care of and got lots of walks and attention while we were gone. Sidney was great at communicating and even picked up an extra stop for us so we didn’t have to rush home. I highly recommend Sidney as a sitter. She exceeded expectations!!
Tayler gave our dog Luna special care, gave us specific daily notes about her time with Luna, and was warm and friendly in all of our interactions. We could tell that Tayler loves dogs, discovers their likes and caters to them, and enjoys what she does. We will definitely book Tayler again if she is available!
Jazz was so good with our dogs, it was a huge ask on her time to come and let the dogs out 3 times a day for 6 days. Jazz was very responsible, great communication, had pictures of my babies every single time she came over. She is a very sweet person and you can tell she really loves animals. Highly recommended!!!!
Claudia was awesome! We were able to book with her last minute before our trip and she was such a great help. Always on time, sent us photos and went above & beyond to make sure that our pups were taken care of. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lees Summit choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
