“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.”
“Mackenzie was so amazing! She stayed right on schedule and made sure to communicate with me each day and even helped me recognize that i incorrectly scheduled her assistance plan and got it all squared away for me. Will definitely be requesting her services again!”
“Davina watched our 3 kitties while we were gone for two weeks. She’s very attentive, an excellent communicator and took the time to give the kitties much needed attention while we were away. She’s very conscientious and reliable. Every visit was accompanied by pictures of all three of our cats - even the one who hid from her the entire time! I have no problem recommending her to anyone. We are already making arrangements to have her watch them again in a month. Feel confident to use her without any reservations.”
“Erin was great! She responded right away when we were looking for someone to care for our cat, Max, over the holiday. We set up a meet & greet and she was very friendly and accommodating. This was our first time w/a Rover sitter. The evening she was scheduled, she arrived at the right time to feed Max & give his insulin. It was a good experience!”
“Victoria is great with our elder cat Lola! She is always on time and gives Lola all of the love she needs. Communication is great. We are so happy we found someone we can trust.”
“Phoebe did an excellent job of taking care of Frye! She did exactly as I asked her too by giving him a dish of what cat food everyday and checking his water and food supplies. She was very friendly and took pictures and very knowledgeable. I would totally recommend her and I'm planning on using her again the next time I need help. What a wonderful relief to have someone reliable to care for your pet when you're gone :-).”
“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!”
“Kelsey was the best! She cared for our cat like she was her own and sent lots of pictures. When we returned home, everything in our house was in perfect order. I felt so much better having a caring person checking in on our cat while we were away. Totally recommend!!”
“Jordan was wonderful to my pup Lilli! She stopped by for a drop-in to check up on her. She followed all instructions, kept me updated and sent me pictures! I highly recommend her for any pet care needs! Lilli is a higher needs dog and Jordan was able to check off all the boxes for her!”
“Muskaan was amazing! She took such good care of our elderly dog and our home while we were gone! She went above and beyond what was asked of her. We will definitely have her help us again!”
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 taken care of pets since I was about 10. Through family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. All pets I’ve had had been extremely well trained and behaved. I take care of them as if they’re my kids I’m currently working full time but get off early in evenings. I am available all day during the weekends so spending time with your fur baby(ies) won’t be a problem I can crate your dog if trained. My yard is not fenced but I do have a ton of trails near my house and am close to Shawnee mission park. Would likely keep your dog at your home so it’s more comfortable and come take care of it there!
About: I have a passion for caring for dogs and professional experience to match! I’ve completed six months of dog training education through Kennelwood Academy, have 1.5 years of veterinary experience, and have worked in daycare and boarding. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, and dogs with different personalities or behavioral needs. I focus on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while following their individual routines and care instructions. I work 8-5 shifts but will happily spend my time off and days off loving on your babies. I take my youngest pup to work with me to make sure her potty schedule stays the same. I feed my animals 2x a day. Morning and night and let them run and play outside as much as I can. I have 3 loving and friendly dogs of my own with a big fenced in yard for your fur babies to play and prance around in all they want. I will happily go on long or short walks with your pet if there’s no yard for them to be secure in. As well as making sure they will get all the cuddles and play time they wish to have.
“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 taken care of entire farms since I was a teenager and have raised kittens and trained puppies since I was about 10. My love for animals runs deep and taking care of doggies, kitties, and everything in between has been one of the greatest joys in life for me! I love meeting new furry friends and look forward to caring for your pet like they are my own. I would love to book walks throughout the day, or stop in whenever fits your needs! My job is flexible as long as I have time to plan for it. I prefer not to have pets stay overnight as I live in an apartment. If I am caring for a pet in a client’s home, I am extremely respectful of their home, the pets’ dedicated areas of where they are allowed to go, and I make sure to keep both myself and the pet safe by following the owner’s instructions! I leave each place exactly how I found it and pride myself in being tidy.
“Our pets loved having Katy watch after them while we were out of town. We have two senior cats who both need medication/insulin twice daily, and as Katy has two senior cats and two senior dogs of her own, she is very skilled at administering medications if your pet has that need. Our cat Birdy suddenly took ill while we were out of town, and Katy was very prompt with letting us know what was happening and took Birdy to the vet when she needed professional intervention. We are grateful to Katy for her kindness and helpfulness and love for the animals in her care.”

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 .

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.
