“Saige is awesome! She goes above and beyond to care for my pup and to communicate concerns. Great peace of mind when traveling knowing my pup is receiving high quality care. Thanks!”
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: 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.
About: I promise to treat your fur baby as my own! I’ve grown up and been around dogs my whole life as well as fostered 3 different dogs. I own a golden retriever as well! Please note that I will not be able to do walks/drop ins until after 4! I do work full-time now so I won’t be able to let out your dog until after four during the weekdays. You can message me if you are wanting a weekend visit though! Please also let me know if I need to crate them or do anything special before I leave to ensure your fur baby is safe
“Brandon & Nicole are excellent caretakers and took such good care of my kitties. I had no worries and left my fur babies in good hands. We will definitely re-book!”
About: Hello! My name is Dani (Kathryn is my legal name, which was required to include on my profile 🙂). I understand how challenging it can be to leave your dog when you're away, and my goal is to make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible, almost like they’re on a little vacation of their own! Your dog will stay in my home, receiving plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I have a year old dog, Marty, of my own and I foster from time to time for a local rescue, so I plan to keep my boarding group small in order to give each dog the individual attention they deserve. 📸 You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and having a great time. 🐶 I welcome friendly, well-socialized dogs and take the time to learn about each dog's personality, routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any other individual needs prior to their stay. 🏡 Your dog will be treated like part of my little family while they’re here. I’ll do my best to maintain their normal routine, so they feel comfortable and at home. My dad is a retired veterinarian, so I have extensive experience with animals of all kinds and sizes, and I love them all! Before their first stay, I would be happy to arrange a meet & greet to help ensure your pup feels comfortable with me, Marty, and our home. I look forward to getting to know you and your furry friend! 🐾 🥰 I have daytime flexibility that allows for shorter walks during the work week and longer walks & visits to the dog park in the evenings. I enjoy visiting any and all dog friendly places around the city. I have a fenced in backyard and a very sweet and playful 10 month old shepherd mix named Marty who has never met a furry friend he doesn’t like! He enjoys being outside so we walk frequently, as well as go to the local dog parks.
About: I am a dependable and caring pet sitter who treats every animal like family. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and maintaining consistent routines. I am attentive to details, communicate clearly, and focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment so pets feel relaxed and well cared for. My current availability is primarily in the evenings and on weekends, with boarding available on weekends. Exceptions can be made on a case by case basis depending on individual needs. I care for pets by following their established routines and preferences to help them feel comfortable and secure. In my home or a client’s home, I ensure they receive proper feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I maintain a clean and safe environment, monitor behavior and health closely, and provide any medications or special care as instructed. I also prioritize clear communication, giving regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.
About: I have grown up always having dogs in my house. When I left for college, it only felt right to get a dog of my own. I have always been the dog sitter for my friends, and former teammates. I have experience of giving medicine and cooking up some food for our lovely pups. I am a very active person, I love long walks, but also enjoy a relaxing day with some extra pets/scratches. I have my Fridays and weekends off. I am able to board for the weekend starting Thursday night. I am typically home all day during the weekend. The maximum I am out of the house is about three hours for my workout and church. During the week I can do drop ins or walks between 6am-8:30am or 6pm and after. I live in a two-story townhome with a basement. I have a dog of my own, who is friendly. I have a long leash line in the back to allow the dogs to be outside. I also live across from the dog park. I currently live with my sister and her boyfriend as well, so somebody will usually always be home.
“Catherine is wonderful with all the animals, it's clear she loves what she does and really cares. I'm so happy, I have peace of mind knowing my babies are I such good hands when I'm away. Thank you Catherine!”
“Tiffany is the best sitter we’ve had by far. Every time we come back from a trip, we can tell how well she took care of our dogs. It’s obvious she cares so much because she even leaves special treats for them. As long as Tiffany is available, she will always be my go to.”
About: I’m an experienced dog walker, dog sitter and cat sitter. I’m aware of positive reinforcement training techniques. I will give your pet all the love and care! I work a hybrid, flexible, work schedule. I am available during weekdays weekends and evenings. Please let me know your schedule and we can work something out! I like to meet pet parents before the start of services to learn about your pet. I will follow your schedule and instructions to provide the best care. If your pet has special instructions, please let me know!
“Maddie is great! We have hired her for two vacations now, she is reliable for check-ins with my group of kittens and takes photos to let us know they’re doing well. We will definitely be using Maddie again in the future!”
“Meggie goes above and beyond. She’s been checking in on my buddy for over a month now and she always does a great job. She’s prompt and never misses a day! She’s incredibly sweet to my boy and let’s him stay outside as long as he can. I always get pictures and a nice little update, and she checks in if something seems out of the ordinary. Overall I highly recommend Meggie ♥️🐶”

“I feel so lucky to have found Katie! She is AWESOME. She is communicative, trustworthy and professional. She has a really calm, kind energy and befriended my dog right away. And I loved all the photo updates! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“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 ;)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lees Summit
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!
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.
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 November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $21 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 November 2026, there are 2,568 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 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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
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.
