“Jadyn does such a fantastic job caring for my pups! I can always count on multiple photos and descriptions of how she’s spent her time. I would highly recommend her if you want peace of mind that your babies are in good hands 🐶”
“Sidney was great! She not only took care of our cat but also looked after the house exceptionally. She gave wonderful detailed reports each day with pictures. I never felt worried or stressed our Bobbi girl was taken care of. We highly recommend her.”

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, small pets, and some small farm animals. This diverse background has taught me how to recognize different needs, behaviors, and personalities, allowing me to provide attentive and individualized care. I will focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while maintaining each pet’s normal routine. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I will treat every animal as if they were my own and will keep pet owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands. I'm currently looking to do pet care after work, and on the weekends with my kids. During the week I am looking for late afternoon to early evening opportunities, from about 2:30pm-4:30pm or a little later. On the weekends, however, I am open to mostly any day/times needed. During the week I can offer quick stop ins or walks after work. On the weekends I will typically have my kids with me, and we can give your animals more attention, and for longer periods of time! I can't wait to meet your babies!

I will have plenty of time to play, go on walks and provide bathroom breaks. I do work hybrid, so there might be a day or two where I'll be away for maximum 8 hours. I have a fenced in backyard and no pets. I do have a crate on hand if your dog prefers a crate. I know some dogs are crate trained and/or prefer crates.

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!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,717 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lees Summit. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lees Summit stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lees Summit. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 pet, 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.
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 sitter.
