“Rachel was awesome! I felt so relaxed knowing my pets were in her care. She was very communicative and always provided updates with a lot of pictures. Will for sure use her again!”

About: I’ve experience with dogs of all ages and sizes!!!! I’ll love them like my own!!!! Whether energetic or lazy, I am happy to take excellent care of them. I do have a full time job Monday thru Friday but am available almost every single weekend. If you need a weekend away I am happy to take care of your pooch! I love taking walks and playtime inside or outside with your 4 legged loved one! I am experienced in giving medicine for pets that need it too.
About: I grew up with dogs and all of my kids have dogs, so not only am I a grandpa, I was a dog grandpa first! I also sit and love cats. They always find me. Had four dogs in my house for many times watching when my kids traveled, but now they moved so I have more time to get my fur feed. I take walks and would love to walk your pups but also can follow your guidelines doing the best to keep their routine. I work from home but occasionally have appointments outside of the home, so I am very available to work with your schedule. I will share my schedule with you when booking. I have a fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walking. Friendly home environment with access to fresh food/water and sunshine. Your dog/cat will be well-loved.

About: I have three years of consistent dog-walking experience with the same family and their two dachshunds, visiting three times a week (1 hour walking) without missing a scheduled walk. That long-term commitment taught me the importance of reliability, routine, and building trust with both pets and their owners. I have also provided dog-sitting care for several families, often for about one month at a time, and have cared for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I take time to understand each pet’s normal routine, energy level, preferences, and communication style so they can feel safe and comfortable in my care. In addition to dogs, I am comfortable caring for cats and have many years of experience around horses through riding and handling. This has helped me become patient, observant, calm, and attentive to changes in an animal’s behavior. I genuinely enjoy building a bond through dependable care, play, companionship, and respect for each pet’s individual needs. I currently have a flexible weekday schedule and am usually available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. I have plenty of time to give each pet calm, unhurried attention and am happy to follow their usual routine for walks, meals, playtime, rest, and companionship. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own routine. I take time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, personality, favorite activities, boundaries, and any special instructions from their owner. Whether I am caring for a dog or a cat, I keep doors and gates secure, handle leashes and carriers carefully, and pay attention to their behavior and comfort level. I also respect the owner’s home, keep pet areas clean, and leave everything as I found it. I am happy to send photos and updates during each visit, so you can relax knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, attention, and kindness.
“Kelly was super communicative and showed up on time for each of the drop in visits with my cats. She took tons of photos and when I came home a week later the cats barely reacted, which lets me know they were well looked after and didn't feel starved for attention (or food!). I would definitely recommend Kelly!”

About: I work from home full-time. This means your pet will receive frequent supervision, companionship, potty & play breaks and lots of attention throughout the day! I will provide a safe and loving environment where your pet will be comfortable and cared for like they are part of the family. I've cared for animals in every stage of life. I have extensive experience with cats including bottle-feeding orphaned kittens, caring for senior cats, and supporting pets with age related needs. I also have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I understand that each pet requires individualized care, patience, and attention. Open to hosting dogs in home and drop ins for cats. I work from home full-time, allowing me to provide frequent supervision and attention throughout the day. Work is flexible allowing for lots of love and activities. I have a large, fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play with my dog. When not outdoors our house guest will primarily stay with me in my home office as my co-worker and side kick. With lots of breaks for tummy rubs and head scritches of course!
About: Since I was a child, I have loved and shared my life with warm, furry or feathered creatures. Mostly dogs, but also canaries, parakeets, hamsters, guinea pigs, and bunnies have shared my home; I also love cats, horses and other companion animals. I have raised and trained seven dogs of my own as an adult and cared for numerous others. I am now retired with my pup who is an AKC registered therapy dog, but I still have plenty of love to give your pet, walking or dropping in for meals, medication administration or general care. Every pet is a precious gift and it gives me great joy to make them feel cherished, as they deserve. I am retired and so I have plenty of time to walk or do drop-in visits to care for your pets. I enjoy the exercise and fresh air and I know most pets do too! I prefer to walk dogs in safe neighborhood setting during daylight hours. Safety is very important to me. I always have my phone on me when visiting or walking your pets for immediate access to emergency services, if needed.

“Kylee was a WONDERFUL Rover sitter! She was on time based on our agreement every day, she treated my pup like her own, and sent the best pictures! I will definitely book her again! (Once Coronavirus allows me to get back to business as usual).”
About: Hi, I’m Madison! Animals have always been a big part of my life. My mom owned a grooming salon, so I grew up around dogs and learned early on what it means to care for them. In 2009, I became a professional dog groomer and have spent years working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My grooming background has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, safe handling, and the importance of meeting each pet where they are. Whether it’s a confident puppy, a senior dog, or a pet who needs a little extra patience, I enjoy getting to know what makes each one unique. I’m also a cat owner, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. Along with walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, I offer my professional grooming experience for services like nail trims. I know how important it is to find someone reliable for your pets while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable care, follow your pet’s normal routine, and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I look forward to getting to know your pets and providing the kind of dependable care I would want for my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, drop-ins, and attention throughout the day while keeping pets on their normal routines. Caring for animals has always been a part of my life, and I enjoy making time for them. I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes, where I can keep pets comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow their normal routines, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I’m also a cat owner, so I understand the importance of a calm, safe environment and individualized care.
About: I have had a number of families count on me to take care of both their children and pets for over 20 years (including dogs, cats, birds, and fish). Recently, I've taken care of a few family members' senior dogs and cats so I am experienced with administering medications. In my own free time I love going for walks (as well as runs if your dog would like that). I am a flight instructor at one of the local airports which gives me a flexible schedule. There are also days when the weather isn’t “flight friendly” (hello spring!) which allows me to stop by and walk your dog/feed your pet. I show up when needed, talk to the pets, show them lots of love and attention, and take care of my responsibilities (feeding, letting outside, walking, medication etc). My main gig is flight instructing. Everything in flying has a checklist so you can count on me to follow any instructions you leave me.
“Gordon was awesome! Our 8-year old Pyrenees, Nala, who is good aggressive and has never been left with non-family members. Gordon made it manageable. He even dropped back by an extra time (after Nala caught and ate an adult squirrel) to take her out for an extra poo. Gordon’s pictures and funny comments gave us peace of mind during our son’s wedding in Texas.”

“Elizabeth watched our 2 kittens for our first weekend trip away. She was so responsive, shared the best updates and photos and even came to meet us/the cats prior to the weekend to make sure she understood what was needed. Will definitely use her again!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong passion for dogs and my personalized approach to each pet’s needs. I’ve had dogs all my life, from puppies to seniors, and I absolutely love them all—no matter the size! I miss having a dog around since going off to college, and working with your doggo is the perfect opportunity to get my fix! Plus, I offer daily updates so you can feel at ease while you're away. I currently work full-time as a HR Generalist for a local Industrial Sales company. I work a hybrid schedule so Monday and Tuesdays are in office and Wednesday-Friday are from home. I already try to manage my schedule in sections and like to take a break in the middle of most days to recharge and get outside when it is nice. I could use this time to travel to your locations and offer potty breaks for the animals. I'm pretty open on the weekends without commitments so putting your animal first will always be important. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for them. I stick to their usual routine, from feeding times to playtime and walks, ensuring they feel secure and at ease. I maintain open communication, providing regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing. I also make sure to keep your home tidy, following any specific instructions you provide regarding your pet's needs or preferences. Whether it's cuddling on the couch or going for a walk in the neighborhood, I treat your pet like my own, offering love and attention every step of the way.
“Victoria’s help was fantastic. My younger dog had never acted out before and she did this time, unfortunately. Victoria handled everything like a champ. Victoria follows instructions exactly as needed and is great with the updates.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lenexa
Vasily was amazing! She was always on time for every visit with our pups while we were out of town. Each visit came with an update including pictures about what they did together and how the dogs were doing. She made sure they were very well taken care of and we had absolutely nothing to worry about. We have three big dogs and she got to know each one of their personalities and took the time to play with them and give them lots of love every visit. She even left them with adorable bandannas. We will most definitely be using her in the future and recommending her to friends/family.
We had a fantastic experience! Communication was excellent, and we received plenty of updates and photos throughout our dog’s booking. When we unexpectedly got stuck out of town, she even came by for an unplanned visit to make sure our dog was cared for, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she looks after. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!

Perfect for peace of mind when we take a quick overnight trip. All of our drop in visits went as planned right on schedule with good communication. I love seeing pictures of our pets relaxing at home while we have adventures, and all the animals were doing great when we got back.

Stacy took car of my 3 large dogs while I traveled for a day. She took them to the dog park, walked them, and sat with them and loved on them outside during the day. They had a great day even though “mom” was off having her own fun. Good communication and pictures. Would definitely have her watch them again :)

Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for our three dogs - one of which is a senior dog. She is a great communicator and established a strong rapport quickly with our fuzzy family. We strongly recommend her to anyone needing professional, compassionate care for their pets.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lenexa choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Lenexa with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
