“Morgan is amazing and ultra-reliable pet help. She was available to give my older diabetic cat insulin injections twice per day for a long weekend so I could be on vacation with no worries.”
“Austin and his wife were amazing! They treated my cat, Moose, so so well. They have a separate room to help her feel safer as well! They also kept great communication, and sent updates throughout the days! Overall, they were great!”
“Katelyn is great! She takes excellent care of my boys when we are away, she's flexible and communicative. I have a high anxiety cat, a velcro cat and a kitten who is terrified of most people. These boys are almost never alone most days and I'm grateful that Katelyn keeps them company when we are out of town.”
“Victoria is a wonderful cat sitter. She checked in exactly when we asked and spent time with our senior cat. We had to add medication in between booking and the visit and Victoria was willing and able to help us with that. We will 100% be using her again in the future.”

Please message me to let me know what you need and what kind of care I can do to help you and your four legged friend.

“Elizabeth did a great job with our two cats! She made sure to give them the attention, and at times, the space they needed to feel comfortable and well cared for! She was also great at communicating with any questions and updates. We will definitely request her again for the next time we’re away from home!”
About: I have worked at a vet, taken care of my own animals as well as family and friends. I have dealt with dogs and cats of all sizes. It will work with my job, get me exercise, and give me extra income I need. If I didn't have a weakness to blood, I would have been a veterinarian. I always make sure that they are exercised, played with, and taken to a park if necessary. I never hurt an animal but believe in discipline.
“Lauren was A M A Z I N G and very attentive to our cat’s needs. She did everything exactly how we asked and beyond. We felt comfortable and confident in our weekend getaway with our cat in Lauren’s care.💙 10/10, very trustworthy and friendly. We will be returning to Lauren 😄”
“Morgan did great with my 4 cats! She sent me at least 2 sets of pictures every day, along with text updates on how everything was going. She also took the time to make me little wallet photos of each cat, as a little surprise when I returned home -so precious! Morgan also followed up to make sure I had returned safely, so as to make sure the kitties were again being looked after by me… it was a seamless handoff. Special bonus; she had done housesitting for me, and she even washed the sheets and towels that she used while here, and put the sheets back on the bed – bravo!! Definitely above and beyond, and we are all excited for her next stay with the boys next month!”
About: I have been a pet owner for over 40 years. I work from home, so I am always available for your precious pets! I also have a half an acre, fully gated yard-for plenty of space to roam! I am great with dogs, and also the Purrfect Cat Sitter! I work from home, so that allows me the flexibility to have extra daytime snuggles. I have always been great with animals, so a Sitter spot on Rover is totally a perfect fit for me! My home is gated around the half acre perimeter, and very pet friendly. If away with a client in their home- I make sure the animals have ample space to get to know me on their terms, as often they might be sad to be in the care of someone other than their #1's. I believe their comfort and safety is most important, so I strive to be their favorite substitute!
About: Hi, my name is Kathleen, and I am an experienced pet care handler. I have cared for dogs and cats of all various sizes and behaviors. A few examples of dogs I've worked with are corgis, pitbulls, and great pyrenees. I can handle most breeds and have worked with shy dogs, protective dogs, and highly energetic dogs. For the last 3 years, I have also volunteered as a dog walker for an animal shelter. I feel comfortable around most types of dogs and cats, and I would love to give them the best care possible while you’re away! I currently have 2 cats of my own while living in KC for Grad school. I am mature, energetic, reliable, dependable, and, most importantly, sensitive to the unique needs of our furry babies. I'm currently in grad school and looking to fit this into my schedule. I'm available most mornings, 6 am to 8 am, and in the afternoon, after 4:30 pm for dog walking. I do have lunch breaks where I can do a drop-in and check on your furry baby. I am available weekends for walking, drop-in, or house sitting. I want to assure animals in my care will feel comfortable, loved, and safe. During visits and/or walks, I will always have my attention focused on your pet and will immediately remove them from any dangerous situation right away. I want them to be happy going on walks and getting to spend time out in nature.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for quite sometime and even have experience with giving dogs pills as well. I’m willing to not only stay and house sit but ensure the animals have a good time. I work part time and have a lot of gaps in my day for side jobs. I live an active lifestyle so there’s no such thing as too many walks or too much playing! I make sure water is full all the time and food arrives on time with no fuss. I can easily pick up after any animals ensuring a clean lawn as well as a clean home. No pet goes unloved!
“Annicka was kind and professional - I could tell that my cats were in good hands. Her home was clean, and she was very responsive to messages. Thanks for working with me so last minute! 🙏🏻”
“Allison was great, she was easy to get a hold of and was always on time. Allison was great with both my dog and cat and the pets really liked her. She even went the extra mile and changed her schedule so it would work better for us. I would recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes — from tiny lap dogs to big breeds like Great Pyrenees — so no dog is too small or too large for me to handle. I’ve also looked after a busy farm household with five dogs, two goats, and two donkeys, which taught me how to juggle multiple animals at once, stay calm under pressure, and adapt to whatever each animal needs. I have pets of my own, and I love taking them for walks and having play time! I work full-time on weekdays, so I’m typically available for walks and drop-ins in the early morning before work and in the evenings after 4pm. Weekends are wide open for boarding, sitting, or longer visits. I like to keep a consistent routine so your pet gets predictable care and plenty of attention while I’m home. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with nearby walking paths and green space for exercise and bathroom breaks. My home is clean, quiet, and set up to keep your pet comfortable, with fresh water always available and a secure space to relax. I’m happy to follow your pet’s specific routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to keep things as close to home as possible!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lenexa
Linda takes really great care of my 3 cats when I am out of town and able to book her services! She knows each cat as the individual they are and each ones personality and needs. She spends time playing with them and gives my 1 cat on medication his arthritis support without any confusion. I know I can count on her to take care of them like I would, and that is everything when traveling. Would recommend, without reservation!
We were hesitant to use this type of service, because our 16-year-old cat is old and highly spoiled! But Rover was wonderful. We were lucky and found Emily in Lenexa and she made everything so easy. We always got alerts when she arrived and left and looked forward to the daily picture she would send. We would highly recommend this service and highly recommend Emily in Lenexa.
Another successful stay with Kim. She always does a great job but I tipped her extra this time since she called out that my kitty hadn’t gone to the bathroom in 24 hours. Turns out kitty was being stubborn and anxious but I still appreciated her diligence in letting me know so I could have my emergency contact stop by and do a more thorough check..
Amanda was very sweet with Phoenix and updated me every visit how it was going. She provided lots of play and checked on her food and water for me. I asked her to come back before the end of the visit as she kind and caring and all we could hope for in a sitter.

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 .
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.
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 .

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 , 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.
