“This was my first time leaving Oakley with someone and I was really nervous. Erin gave tons of updates and put my mind at ease! Oakley loves going to see her now. I’ll only ever be booking with her in the future.”
“Evelyn was great! My two bulldogs boarded with Evelyn for one night. One of my dogs is anxious in new places and Evelyn did her best to ease his nerves. She was so successful that he barely left her side the next day when she was working from home. 😆 She had all their items ready to go at pick up & helped me get all the items loaded back into my car.”
“Danielle and her family always take the very best care of Frankie! He literally gets excited and can’t wait to see them when we pull up to their home for drop off. Frankie feels at home when he is there, which gives us great peace of mind!”
“Sara was amazing with our senior pup! She sent daily updates with photos and our shy pup was well-loved throughout our time away. We will definitely book with Sara again in the future!”
“Ali was the best sitter for my pug, Atticus! She was super communicative, accommodating, and thoughtful. Her family is wonderful too. Could not speak more highly of her! ❤️”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Addie during her stay. Your daily updates and pics are greatly appreciated, and your thoughtful, compassionate care truly makes her feel right at home. We appreciate your great communication and will definitely be booking with you again. Mary Ann A”
“Jessica and her girls were great to my Lucy and Otis. Jessica sent daily update photos twice a day, morning and evening. She was just the right amount of communicative and provided a great sense of safety while we were away on a trip for five days. Her doggy Rain seemed like a great companion to also get some needed socialization for our Lucy who just loves being around other younger pups. Overall, I would recommend Jessica and her girls to anyone needing a safe place to keep their pups in the KC metro area.”
“Second time Louie has stayed with Michelle and Bradley. He loves being there, is well cared for and enjoys their dog, Joni. Michelle and Bradley are clear communicators and great representatives of Rover.”
“Response time: 5 stars. Communication: 5 stars. Updates and pic during stay: 5 stars. Overall experience and feeling comfortable with her: 5 starts. Thanks Susan (and family) for accepting 'Bago into your home and treating him as your own. We will certainly use you again and recommend.”
“Daniel did an outstanding job taking care of Toto, my 12 year old schnauzer mix. He sent lots of photos, which I really appreciated; and it looked like Toto was so happy with all the attention from Daniel and his 2 children. His dog Kali is very sweet and Toto got along with her. Daniel truly did welcome Toto into his family and cared for him as if he were his own. I highly recommend him.”
“Super nice and able to accommodate my dog on short notice. My dog definitely had a blast and instantly made himself at home, playing with their dogs and getting cozy.”
“Alma fue excelente cuidadora para Dublín, siempre estuvo en comunicación y enviando fotos de cómo iba el día. Dublín fue muy consentido el tiempo que estuvo con Alma. Super recomendada ❤️”
“Austin took great care of my cat while I was out of town for a few days. My cat, Kat, had her own room while she adjusted to her new environment. Eventually, she shared the rest of the space with the other pets in the household once she was comfortable. Aside from just caring for my cat, Austin sent frequent photo and text updates, and always quickly responded to my messages. On the subject of punctuality, Austin was quick to answer the door when I arrived to drop off my cat, and had everything prepared for me upon my arrival. I'll also add that I ended up picking up my cat a little earlier than expected, but Austin still had everything ready. In a rush to prepare for my trip, I forgot to bring my cat's litter box and fresh litter, even though I had said I would bring them. Austin supplied litter and a litter box for my cat. I really appreciate this gesture, especially considering it was 100% my fault that I forgot to supply the litter and box. As for the space itself, Austin's place has plenty of room for the pets to explore and, as I mentioned before, a spare room is available for those who would prefer that for their pet. Ultimately, Austin seems like a qualified sitter who did a great job caring for my cat for a few days.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. During my time in college, I worked for a humane society and have extensive knowledge on how to care and play with many different temperaments. My most recent beloved cat, Mufasa, was diabetic, which has help me puuurfect my skills of administrating shots and taking care of ill kitties. I have a full time job from 9-5 on M-F, but my weekends and evenings are free to give all the love and care to your furbaby. I live in an apartment complex that allows all breeds. There is plenty of space outside to play with your dog, and many walking trails and parks nearby. There is also a dog park close by.
“Sara and her family were the absolute best! They took amazing care of our pups while we were away which allowed us to enjoy ourselves without worry. We looked forward to her daily updates and accompanying photos, too! I loved the fact that there was someone home during the day and that our dogs were able to play with Sara’s children and pets, too. She was very communicative, professional and most importantly kind. Amazing experience!”
“Gina was great with our dog! She sent us frequent pictures & videos and was very communicative. She definitely knows what she’s doing and we will be bringing our dog to Gina again!”
“Ashlyn was my hero! I had a last minute situation and she sweetly took on my pup. He went right with her, which he doesn’t do at other places. She sent pics when I asked, but I often was not in a situation to ask during normal hours and would have loved to have pics waiting on me at the end of the day to pick me up. But that’s my only feedback. My pup was happy and healthy when I picked him up. I will book again.”

Iryna did a great job with Gracie. I can't say enough kind words about how well she treated our little Gracie. She sent pictures every day or 2 and I knew our little girl was in good hands. I was actually worried that Gracie wouldn't want to come home! Can't recommend enough her sitting services.
I was a little worried about leaving my dog with a sitter for a whole month, but Kelsey quickly put my mind at ease with her great communication. Gladston and Kelsey got along just fine, and Gladston was so happy to see me when I got back. I’d definitely use Kelsey again and highly recommend her!
Pepper was with them for almost 3 weeks, she settled in quickly and really made herself at home. It was clear from the pictures she was very comfortable and settled in at their house with their dogs and family. We would definitely trust them to care for Pepper in the future and would recommend them to anyone needing care for their dog.
Leanna was great! Easy to communicate with, regularly sent me updates, and took great care of my dog. He tends to be shy and depressed when I'm gone, but he latched onto her right away, and it sounded like he had a great time with her. And her dog was a perfect, low-energy companion for Miska, too!
Shauna has helped us numerous times and done an absolutely phenomenal job every time. Our older dogs love hanging out with her at her home and on walks. She’s very engaging with our dogs treating them very well. Is always reliable and timely. We appreciate her very much and highly recommend her service.
Danielle and her family took great care of our dogs. They were happy and healthy upon our return. Their positivity and enthusiasm towards our dogs put us at ease which allowed us to enjoy our time away. I am grateful that Danielle accepted our spoiled, attention seeking and special need dogs for such a long stay. Thank you!
Victoria did an AMAZING job taking care of my Corolla! Corolla is initially a timid dog, so I was worried she’d spend her whole stay feeling stressed out and anxious. But Victoria and her family were very welcoming - and they were great with the slow introductions to other dogs and kiddos. I got fun pics every day, and I could tell by day two that Corolla was having a blast! I really feel like she was treated like family here. Highly recommend!!!
This was our first experience with needing to leave Bailey, who is 14 years old, with anyone. We were extremely nervous, apprehensive and anxious about leaving her with anyone however after meeting with Tori and meeting her family, I knew I had made a right desicion. Tori was open to communication and I loved the pictures she sent me. I would definitely use her again.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Lenexa can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lenexa home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Lenexa.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lenexa. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
You and your Lenexa sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in KS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
