Erika is amazing! Her care for my pup was so appreciated. She gave him so much attention and love that he didn’t even miss me during my multi-day trip away. This is our second time working with Erika and we will be seeing her again in the future. A+ service!

About: I treat every dog like family—not just a job. I learn their quirks, their favorite toys, and what makes their tail wag. I build trust with both dogs and their humans, creating a calm, loving environment that feels like home. I will ALWAYS send updated pictures a videos! Even with a full-time job, pet care is a priority I plan around, not squeeze in. I only accept clients I can fully commit to—meaning your pet gets the time, energy, and attention they deserve. I offer early morning, evening, and weekend care, and I’m highly organized to keep everything running smoothly. Pet care isn’t a side hustle for me—it’s a passion I build into my daily life. When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and structure. I stick closely to their home routines—feeding, walks, medications, and bedtime habits—so they feel secure and comfortable. I make sure they get mental stimulation, physical activity, and lots of love throughout the day. In-home care means your pet stays in their familiar space, which helps reduce stress. I keep everything consistent with your instructions—from feeding and potty breaks to walks, play, and downtime. I respect your home like it’s my own and always send updates, photos, and quick check-ins to keep you at ease while you’re away.

Another 10 star performance by Abby! There are very few people we would trust with our animals and our house for a week while we traveled overseas— Abby is at the top of the list! We received daily updates/photos and she took great care of our boys. Excellent communicator before and during her stay which gives us peace of mind. House was immaculate when we got home. Thank you Abby!

About: I have hands on, everyday experience caring for four Golden Retrievers of my own. Managing a multi dog household has given me skills in canine schedule structure, supervision, and understanding of different personalities and energy levels. I also have experience caring for infant puppies, including feeding schedules, potty training foundations, crate introduction, and the patience that can sometimes be needed during those important early development stages. I’m comfortable maintaining routines, reinforcing basic training, and providing both high-energy play and calm, attentive care. Your pet will be treated like part of my family: safe, loved, and well cared for! I work remotely full time, so I am very flexible and am able to meet you and your schedule requests, whether it be for in-home visits, walk outing, or overnight stays. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise routines, and any specific instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also reinforcing any training or household rules you have in place. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

We absolutely LOVED Lucas! Even Bobby Cat loved him and and Bobby doesn’t like anybody! This was the first time we have ever left our boys with a stranger. We did a meet and greet with Lucas several days before we left and our beasties all went crazy over him. I trust their instincts over anything. Lucas sent us pictures and messages daily. I felt comfortable and confident that the boys were in good hands, and able to relax and enjoy myself. The entire experience was great! Lucas will be our “go-to guy” for future travel!

About: I have three dogs, two wonderful twin golden retrievers that are 5 years old. They are my whole world and so are my sister and brother’s dogs/cats! My sister has been doing rover in KC for over 7 years so it’s been a great way to experience rover and the necessities for all kinds of pets. Additionally, I’ve been a volunteer at Unchained Melodies puppy nursery and KC Pet Project for the last few years <3 I’m currently a post-graduate student preparing for medical school here in a year so I have a lot of time for longer term pups. I’m preparing for work part-time as well in the fall but I have a very open and flexible schedule. I have helped dog sit for years now and of course I’ve taken care of my own dogs since they were just babies. Unfortunately, I’m unable, for the most part, to have animals stay at my house however, I’m open if necessary. I walk and feed my own dogs daily and they take a lot of space so I want them to feel comfortable in their own environment.

About: I’ve been around dogs for the past 6 years and absolutely love spending time with them. I’m patient, friendly, and always do my best to make sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. I understand what dogs need, whether it’s playtime, a good walk, or just some quiet company. Every pup is different, and I make sure to treat each one with the attention and love they deserve. Taking care of animals is just part of my everyday life. I’ve got a handful of dogs at home, and they’re all very different, some full of energy, some more laid-back. My day usually starts and ends with walks, feeding, and playtime, and in between I’m checking in on how everyone’s doing. I’m used to balancing different routines and personalities, so giving each pet what they need just comes naturally. My older dog needs a little extra help, so I take time to help with potty breaks and sometimes hand-feed when needed. I make sure he’s comfortable and not rushed. My younger dogs are more active, so we go on walks, play outside, and spend time burning off that energy. I try to keep things balanced—making sure everyone gets the attention, care, and patience they need. Each of my dogs is different, and I’ve learned to adjust to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.

About: I have, alongside owning pets, cared for many within and outside of my family for 6 years now. I know to care for dogs, cats, big and small. I can only do it mostly on weekends or early mornings on any other day. My days off from my regular job are Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday so if you need anything on those days then I am your gal! We take care of many pets in our home. We have 4 cats, and 5 dogs, one including a standard poodle but they have plenty of room in and outside of the house so they can have fun and roam!

About: I currently work from home but I am the the process of making a career change and will eventually be working out of the house. I have a German shepherd that loves everyone! He does well woth small dogs, big dogs, aggressive dogs, and shy dogs. I do have cats but they are outside, they have claimed the frontyard and porch and stay out of the backyard. I have been watching animals on Rover since 2020 and I was a horse trainer/ranch hand before that. If you have any questions feel free to ask! I currently work from home so I let the dogs out many times throughout the day. When I do make a career switch I have a babygate to seperate the house to make sure there are no incidents while im out and then before and after work they will get plenty of exercise. I tend to spoil animals. I love playing with them and giving them scratches. My animals are allowed on the furniture so when we aren't playing there is a lot of cuddle time.

About: I am a dog owner myself and have a lot of prior experience with pet sitting dogs, cats, birds, fish, etc. I am extremely reliable and responsible. I follow directions and know how important it is to communicate with you - regarding all of your pets needs. I find joy in spending time and taking exceptional care of animals. I currently work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule during the week to stop by and care for your pet(s)/house (if needed). This goes for weekends, as well. An animals safety is my number one priority. If I'm taking them in a public setting ie park/walk, my attention will be on them and the surrounding areas. If something seems abnormal about your animal, I will immediately contact you to figure out next steps. I am trustworthy and care about all animals.

About: I love all animals equally (don't tell my cats) and would love to get to know your pets! I have 2 years of experience taking care of dogs. I am familiar with clean up, basic training methods (e.x. clicker training) and high energy playtime. I can lounge around with older puppers or run up and down the yard with high energy doggos! I am currently working on personal business ventures so I have plenty of availability when it comes to your pets! I am available all 7 days of the week and can happily service on weekends! I also can do stays up to or longer than a week! Communication and honesty are some of my biggest values. I can provide plenty of checkin with photos as well as timely cleanups of any accidents or spills. In my home I make sure to have any medications locked away and I always check what type of plants I'm bringing in for my cats!

Just relocated to KC and needed a sitter on short notice. Elyssia was amazing with my 4 pups. I was very excited to find a vet tech available as 1 of my pups needed an injection while i was out of town. My pups loved her and were so tired from play when i got home. I would definitely use her again in the future.

Adrienne did a fantastic job with our senior dog and challenging cat. She was so patient and caring and communicated well throughout the sit. She went above and beyond to make sure my pets were comfortable and relaxed. We can't wait to use her services again.

Adrienne is an amazing sitter. She's kind, she's patient and she's very intuitive. She cares deeply about people and animals. I have a somewhat challenging hoard of pets-an old half blind dog, an antsy spaniel, antisocial and social cats. Every one of them warmed up to her quickly. The pets were all calm and happy when I got home. Because of her I could truly enjoy my vacation because I didn't have to worry about anything! She tailored every day to their - and my - needs. I recommend her to everyone!
