“Lily is the best pet sitter ever! This was my first time leaving my pup, and I was incredibly anxious. Immediately after meeting Lily, I felt a wave of relief about leaving her. She was so cheerful and attentive, asking questions on my preferences & my dog’s. When I was away, she sent tons of pictures and gave detailed updates. I needed to extend a bit longer than anticipated, and she gladly accommodated me. I can’t thank her enough and will definitely be going to her from here on out. Thanks Lily!”
About: My husband and I have been around animals all of our life. We have pet sit for our family and friends for many years and we love doing it so much that we have decided to extend our services to others. Being parents of a rambunctious cat and a Great Dane who is shy around people but gets along great with four legged friends, we know how scary it can be to leave your loved one with a stranger. With us your baby will not be a stranger for long, we will welcome them with open arms and care. We have 25 plus years experience working with all age ranges of cats and dogs. Between my husband and I we are able to arrange our schedules so your furbaby will have constant fun and loving interaction. For Drop-Ins during the week we are able to drop in anytime after 4:00 P.M. Monday-Friday but on the Weekends we will have more availability to drop in at any time of the day. We have a one story ranch home that is animal friendly. We have large chain linked fenced in yard in a quaint neighborhood. We have a 3 year old female Great Dane who is a big baby and loves to play with other dogs and gets along with cats. We have a cat who is a lover. If we need to go to a persons home we will be very respectful of their home and wishes.
About: I walked a dog 30 mins every week day along with in home care for 2 years. as well as four hour care on weekends when needed. I have cared for eight dogs in my neighborhood as needed, walking, house sitting and overall care. All of these owners feel l am a responsible caretaker of their pet. I work as a short term rental house keeper, but my schedule is very flexible and I have lots of free time and availability to take care of your beloved pets. I am well versed in making pets feel safe, well cared for and entertained. I will keep your home tidy as well as your pet happy and healthy. I have experience in cleaning, feeding, walking and overall pet supervision.
“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!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up on a farm where I cared for everything from horses and pigs to cats and dogs. Being the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family has given me so much experience, and I’d love to bring that same care to your pets. I have my own super friendly dog and cat at home who love making new friends, so your furry family members will be in great company and I’ll will treat them as my own. I am not shy to big dogs, my first ever dog was a Great Dane (gentle giants) as shown in my pictures named Malcom so all big dogs are welcomed. I can handle dogs who tug on the leashes, no matter the size, large or small so that will not be an issue at all. As of right now I’m only doing check ins and walking while I get acquainted with this app and new faces and puppers. Eventually I will do overnights. I’m happy to answer any question, no such thing as a dumb question. Especially when it comes to the peace of mind knowing your pet is safe. Thank you for your patience and I hope to hear from you! 🩷 I am a college student, and I am currently not working to focus on my studies. I figured pet sitting would be the best thing for me because I love animals and I can study, or do school work while I do it. I am willing to both pet sit at my or your house. I have a small fenced in backyard that is secure and safe for your pet. I have a dog named Sadie and a cat named Shayla at home who would love to meet some new furry friends! I would treat your pet as if they were my own with lots of love and care. I’m good at picking up the phone and can give updates as much as you need. Being a pet parent, I too love to see pictures and text letting me know that my dog is okay while I’m away. It is really hard to leave your pets behind while you go away, so that’s why I would make it very easy and comfortable for both you and your pet.

About: I’ve always had a dog since I was born which created my love for animals, especially dogs. Before I was old enough to have my very own dog, I worked at Blue Springs Animal Hospital. In college I poured my love into my first dog as a grown up, Bentley my Boxer. He was the absolute love of my life; my soul dog and we spent every waking moment together since he was 5 weeks and I was 19. I enjoyed every part that came along with pet ownership from puppy training to his wonky teenage stage and even when he came wheelchair bound at old age. The heartbreak of losing him never became easier to bare but I couldn’t imagine living live without a dog so we welcomed Boss our Rottweiler into our lives to love forever. With my girls being older and in school I’m looking to fulfill my passion of having fun with doggies! I’m a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule with Tuesday availability from 8:30am to 2:00pm and Thursdays from 8:30am to 11:50am and 1pm to 2pm. I will treat your dog like I do my own. With lots of love, pets and maybe a few treats if that’s okay 😉. I won’t leave without giving belly rubs, that’s on Girl Scouts honor!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have over 5 years of experience caring for them. I’m confident with all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, or just a cuddle buddy while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. I’m also comfortable with feeding routines, crate training, and keeping them safe, happy, and loved at all times. I’m a local property manager, just minutes from home, so I can drop in during lunch breaks, after work, and on weekends. I take my own dog to the park every evening for about two hours so he can play and socialize—your pup can join the fun if you’d like! I’m fully available after noon on Fridays and completely free on weekends for boarding, walks, or drop-ins. I treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained. I care for every dog as if they’re my own. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I always take dogs out on leash for potty breaks and walks. Inside my home, pets have a safe, clean, and calm space to relax and feel comfortable. I do have one puppy of my own—he’s super loving and playful, and I always make sure visiting dogs are comfortable and properly introduced. When caring for dogs in their own home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding routines, crate preferences, and walk schedules. I also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities.

“Sandra did a wonderful job for us while we were out of town for the weekend. She showed up on time and did everything she was supposed to do without any issues. Would recommend.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Mya made the experience amazing! I will definitely be using her again. My dog is very shy and not good with strangers but Mya took her time to be patient and calming. My dog started warming up to her very fast and I belive dogs have a good judge of character ;)”
About: I've been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years, including week-long stays watching dogs in their own homes, as well as regular check-ins on both indoor and outdoor cats. I know how much routine and comfort matter to pets when their people are away, and I take that seriously. I'm a lifelong cat person at heart—my cat Gemma (full name Gemma J Hendrix Shanahan, if we're being formal) is a black cat with a spunky personality, and my actual life mission is making sure she's the coziest gal in the world. That same mindset carries over to every pet I care for: attentive, affectionate, and tuned in to what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable. I'm currently in a flexible stretch while I await my bar exam results, which means I have plenty of availability right now for walks, drop-ins, and even extended or overnight stays. I know that kind of open schedule can be hard to come by, so I'm happy to be flexible around your travel dates or last-minute needs. I take caring for pets very seriously, and safety is always my first priority. Whether we're on a walk, playing in the backyard, or just hanging out on the couch, I provide individualized, attentive care based on what each pet needs and is comfortable with. In a client's home, I stick closely to your routines—feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific rules you have—so your pet's environment stays as consistent and stress-free as possible while you're away. I never leave pets unsupervised in unfamiliar or unsecured areas, and I keep a close eye on behavior and body language so I can catch early signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. I'm also happy to send photo or video updates so you have peace of mind while you're away, and I'll always reach out directly if anything seems off rather than waiting until you're back.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lees Summit
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.
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.
Jazz is absolutely wonderful! She is a great communicator and very reliable. We didn’t have to worry about a thing regarding our doggy “daughter” while we were out of town, she was well taken care of and we were able to have complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Jazz and will definitely be booking with her again!
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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lees Summit is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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. 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 October 2026, there are 2,551 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lees Summit. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise

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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
