“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.”
“Stephanie was so helpful and kind with our two dogs! This was a first time using Rover and Stephanie exceeded all needs and eased our worry. With a senior dog who needs extra care and a younger dog who has much more energy, she was able to accommodate both of our boys to keep them happy and safe!”
“Emily is great! She is very flexible on dates and times. Has been great with my dogs and in following the routine my wife and I have for them. I know they enjoy it as they love attention. Highly recommend Emily!”
“Krystina was awesome! Booked her last minute, met up right away to walk through our routine and then scheduled for a couple drops ins a day because I had an elderly mom staying who can’t handle the dogs on her own. She sent lots of pictures, lots of play time and booty scratches. They looked so happy! She was so kind to help me with a few minor unrelated pet things here and there on some days when she was at the house. I will definitely book her again and recommend her to anyone I know!”
“This was my first experience using Rover, and Emily was the best! She was very communicative, send updates and pictures, and helped ease any fear or anxiety surrounding leaving my little kitties alone. 10000/10 stars for Emily!!”
About: ✨ About Me Hi! I’m Shauna — a full-time pet lover and trusted caregiver in the Lenexa, KS and surrounding areas. 🐶💖 Also Lawrence KS area. I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from playful puppies to senior sweethearts who need a little extra love and attention. I treat every fur baby like my own — with safety, comfort, and tons of affection. When your pet is with me, they’re family. ❤️ I do work a full time job but I can always get away to for your pets needs. We can always work out a schedule. My dogs are more then my dogs I see them as my kids so I make sure they are well taken care of even when I go out of town. Spoiled
“Griffin was awesome with my 9 month old, energetic puppy! He was reliable and prompt and sent awesome updates with pictures! Would definitely recommend!”
About: My family has owned yorkies for as long as I can remember and I have raised two of my own for the last 15 years. I also watch my brother’s lab/pit mix very frequently. She requires daily medicine (pills), extra attention with a bad hip, and constant love and affection. I am a big believer in the importance of walks and stimulation. In the 15 years with my yorkies, Rocco & Boo, they have never been boarded because not only would it be hard and stressful on them but on me too! Dog’s are our family and should always be treated like it ~ at home where they’re most comfy! I will always communicate thoroughly and provide detailed updates. I work from home and have a flexible schedule that can accommodate to your and your pets’ needs! There are no specific days or times that do not work - my schedule is flexible day to day! My dogs are pride and joy - I know that yours are too and I will take care of them as such! I will always communicate thoroughly and provide detailed updates. I like my house clean and well taken care and will ensure yours stays the same!
“Devin is extremely flexible and easy to work with. She’s been great for our Hunter and always provides us with a quick photo to ease our worries when we are not able to be at home with our sweet kitty.”
“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.”
“Kris did a great job with Chief. He was great at keeping me updated on visits and obliged to all of my requests. Would definitely recommend. Chief was a happy boy.”
“August was highly communicative and took great care of our cats! They were attentive and asked a lot of questions which I appreciated. I felt perfectly safe having them watch over our babies!”
“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!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a child, I am very comfortable with all sizes and ages of animals. Trustworthy, responsible and punctual. Love being around animals! I am a teacher so usually around in the afternoons. I live in an area that is great to walk in and I enjoy being around animals and taking care of them. I have been a pet owner all my life. My own dog, Olive, has regular walks, treats, toys and play. I love being around animals and would offer a pet the same type of love and care that I do for my own. I have a fenced in yard and am on my own every other week. (I have two boys-age 13 and 15)
“Austin was great with our cats! Our cats usually don't like new people but they both took to Austin very quickly. He sent plenty of updates and pictures throughout the week and even cleaned up their hairballs/vomit when it occurred. Would recommend booking with Austin if you need someone great and trustworthy to watch your pets.”

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..
Paul & Becky were fantastic! They were communicative, consistent and kind during a long trip away. They sent updates and pictures twice a day of our cat and gave him medication and lots of love. This was a last minute request, and Paul and Becky jumped in, cared for our cat and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Can’t thank them enough!
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.
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.
This is the second time we have used Elizabeth as a pet sitter with our two cats and, again, she did a great job! She is very responsive to our pets' needs, knowing when they need a little space and when they need extra attention. She always communicates clearly in her daily updates giving us peace of mind that our pets are being well cared for. We hope to have her pet sit again next time we travel!
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 :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lenexa on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,862 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lenexa. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lenexa stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lenexa. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 pet, 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.
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.
