“Iryna was amazing with my senior furbaby. We are traveling for work and staying in a hotel and she literally went above and beyond for my girl. My dog was very nervous due to being in a new town and new surroundings but Iryna really worked with her and my girl is coming around now. She even walked her in the rain. I totally recommend her and will be using her in the near future.”
“Jennifer is thoughtful, dedicated, and takes great care of our dog. She’s particularly good at communicating with us about questions and happenings during her visits. Our dog is triggered by other dogs and she does an awesome job managing him, calming him, and loving him. He loves when she visits!”
About: Hi! Since a little girl, I have had a passion for animals. I have made it my mission to help all pets in any way possible. I have years of experience with all animals, including dogs, cats, small animals, and reptiles. I have worked in animal welfare, doggy daycare, and vet clinics. As a certified obedience trainer, I have the extensive knowledge of canine and feline behavior and know what makes them comfortable. I am trustworthy and reliable. I have the perfect home to host your furry loved one! I currently stay home full time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pup and give them all the attention. I am happy to keep their schedule as similar to what they are used to at home. I have a large fenced in back yard that they can have all to themselves to run and play ball. My kids love throwing balls for whoever will fetch them!
“Tyrese is very kind, friendly & patient with Miss Peanut. She's skeptical, shy & intimidated by all strangers. Tyrese took his time with her, showed her love & she allowed him to pick her up to go for her walk. I will ask Tyrese to walk Miss Peanut again & again! Great service!”
“Chris was absolutely a wonderful dog walker for our two dogs. He always came on time, and the dogs really looked forward to their walks with him. He is a great communicator so he and my husband were able to communicate through Rover and that was very helpful.”
“Griffin walked our dog Bailey while we were out of town. Bailey looked forward to it everyday!! He is kind and reliable!! We greatly appreciate him and recommend him! Thanks!”
“Michael has been a wonderful addition to our girl’s daily routine. She is so excited to see him in the morning, and comes back from her walks so relaxed and calm. I cannot thank Michael enough for his care.”
About: I am currently providing primarily providing dog walking services. I intend to walk every dog at least 3 miles. With the exceptions for older dogs I will walk slower and for younger dogs I will walk more brisk so that when I bring your fur baby home they are thoroughly excercised and they will be well rested. Furthermore I will always bring my dog water bottle so that you all of your dogs needs are met while they are in my care. I am currently in school so I am mostly unavailable Tuesday-Friday but if you reach out to me most Mondays I have an idea of how my schedule is looking for the week and would be more then happy to make arrangements. I look forward to making new furry friends in the Overland Park are and the surrounding areas. I currently go to school Tuesday-Friday, but im available most evenings during those days and I am available every other day of the week I do not have a place to care for dogs, but if at a client's home I will follow your instructions to the letter and ensure your dog is kept on any schedule you would like them kept on.
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.
“Rachael did a great job walking our German Shepherd. She is very professional and our dog loved her. We will definitely be hiring her again for our dog and also my mom’s golden retriever.”
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: Your pup's home away from home! I am a highly experienced dog sitter providing a safe, loving, and structured environment where your dog is treated like family. I’m currently working Monday through Friday 7-3, so I am able to provide care before of after those hours. I am available during weekends. Safety is always top priority! I’ve work with kids and have my own animals. In a clients home I like to know as much as I possibly can about the animals and their needs.
About: My wife and I have both grown up and taken care of animals since we were born. We have been approved fosters with the Lawrence Humane Society since 2018. We have experience in cats, dogs, puppies and kittens. Currently I own four cats and two dogs. One of my dogs is a certified therapy dog and the other dog is a breeder release. The breeder release was previously afraid of the world and with proper training and love she has become the happiest ever. They both love to play and are welcoming of other furry friends. The cats tend to do their own thing and are used to guest animals in and out of the house. We have a fully fenced in yard and can offer a separate room for your animal to help with any needs. My wife works hybrid remote and is home about 80% of the time allowing for more attention to go to the animals. We can provide services for any dog/cat of any size, age, or needs. Message us to discuss logistics for your pet and we can’t wait to provide loving care to your fur baby! My wife and I tag team animal care and she works hybrid so she is home most of the day. We own our own animals so pet care is natural to us. We have a full fenced in yard which adds to safety but still allows your animal to run around. We have a separate room designated to visiting animals if they stay at our house and need some alone space. I will communicate openly with homeowners and complete the needs of their pets.
“James was walking my dogs for almost 3 weeks. He was remarkably punctual . I have two large dogs and James was able to handle them both at once. He was great with my dogs and they loved him, they are still watching the door waiting for him to come and get them for a walk. I would certainly recommend James to anyone who is looking for a responsible and punctual dog walker. I will definitely use his services in future.”
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 goes out of his way to make his commitment in walking the dogs. My dogs love having him take them for a walk & it’s a big help to me. I would strongly recommend Gordon if you need a dog walker.”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Lenexa is $20

Iryna is so dependable and takes my girl on her walks. She’s very aware of the weather and if it’s hot she takes her to a shaded area and they kinda just hang there. Very caring and mindful of the best interest of my dog. Ava just loves her and can’t wait to see her when she’s coming!
Kris made sure not only my dog was comfortable the entire time, but he also eased my anxiety with pictures and updates!! My dog is a strong stubborn lab, but Kris was the perfect fit. Highly recommend him to anyone who also has anxiety about their puppy like me.
Elena was wonderful - This was the first time we used Rover after a negative experience with a private dog-walking service, so we were a little nervous to try someone new - but Elena was exactly what we needed: punctual, responsive, attentive and caring toward our dog, noting and following all instructions on food, water, walking habits, etc. She gave us every assurance and confidence - Would highly recommend her and would definitely be using her again if we travel out of town again!
Jennifer is thoughtful, dedicated, and takes great care of our dog. She’s particularly good at communicating with us about questions and happenings during her visits. Our dog is triggered by other dogs and she does an awesome job managing him, calming him, and loving him. He loves when she visits!
Stacy Y. is the absolute best! My dogs LOVE her. She is great with stubborn and strong dogs as well. We liked her so much, several of my neighbors now use her as well! She is a wonderful communicator and is always on time. I would book her every single day if I could!!!! Huge endorsement for Stacy.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Lenexa. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Lenexa.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lenexa. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
