Cacy was the best! I was so worried about leaving my young and active dog while I was out of town but they had so much fun together. I was able to travel with peace of mind that she was getting all the love and exercise she deserves. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

I was at ease since the meet and greet! She is extremely communicative and makes sure to ask questions if she needs clarification. My dogs have special needs, including reactivity, medication, and a crate and rotate system, and she handled it all very well. I came home to a clean home and happy dogs!

Kaley did an outstanding job house-sitting and caring for our elderly pup. He was happy and well when we returned, and the house clean. She communicated exceptionally well throughout. We’d definitely rebook with her!

Nick is so conscientious and definitely cares about our "high" need pups. He checks in and responds quickly to any message I send, even when I just let him know we're home because I'm pretty sure he cares and likes us too!

About: I have had animals for as long as I can remember. My husband and I have two senior large dogs, Cooper and Thor, and 6 chickens. Shortly after my husband and I adopted our second dog (Thor) in 2015, we became involved in fostering dogs for animal rescues. We have since taken a pause on fostering but when we were active we were able to rescue and find homes for over 50 dogs. We have been able to pet sit for local family and friends whether it's cats, dogs or even just fish. I am very reliable and happy to either stay in your home or have multiple drop in visits. I hope to meet you and your beloved family member soon! ❤️ 🐕🐈 I currently work 8-5 Monday through Friday, I am free after work most days and do not work on weekends. I am happy to help whenever you need someone to stop by or stay while you're away. I am happy to take your pups for a walk, let them out and play in the yard if there is a fenced yard. I would update after each visit or multiple times a day.

About: I have both small animal and large animal experience. I love pets of any kind! I am currently a veterinary student looking to fill my afternoons with walks! I am currently a full time veterinary student so I am looking for afternoon walks after 3 pm and anytime on most weekends. I will absolutely work with your schedule! I currently live in an apartment so I am unable to board pets. I would love to take care of your pets in an environment that they are most comfortable and take them on long walks!

About: I have been pet sitting for many years and I have lots of pets of my own! I have been working in veterinary medicine since 2019 and I am currently a veterinary student at K-State! I am a veterinary student at K-State so I have class Monday through Friday. While in school I do have breaks throughout the day and I am done before 5 most days, which leaves plenty of time for fetch, snuggles, and walks! I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs of my own who love to play. I also have 3 cats at my home.

We have a special needs pup that needs a lot of care, and she had no problem taking on the chaos! We did a meet and greet, she was so friendly! During the stay, she was so good about checking in as well as sending multiple photos, which I loved. If she wasn’t sure about something she asked, and she followed all of our directions perfectly! My pups loved her and we will definitely be using her again!

Presley was incredibly communicative and professional throughout the entire booking process and was always quick to answer any questions we had. This was our first time using in-home care for Cooper, and she made us feel completely comfortable and confident leaving him in her care while we were away. She took such wonderful care of him, every photo update she sent had him literally smiling! It was clear he was happy, relaxed, and well loved the whole time. We will absolutely be re-booking with Presley and highly recommend her to all of our friends and family looking for someone to care for their fur babies!

About: I have always had pets growing up, so I learned at a young age how to care for dogs, cats, fish, and Guinea pigs. I have my own pet currently! I have a cat and her name is Willow. I take care of my cat every day, I check her food and water bowls twice a day and make time to play with her to give her a workout. I do have a cat, so if I end up taking car of your dog for the day I will most likely avoid bringing them to my home unless you tell me that they get along well with cats. I can take them for walks and to the park or for rides if they enjoy that too!

About: Every pet is unique, and I take pride in providing care that fits their individual needs. Whether your pet is high-energy, anxious, has behavioral challenges, or requires medication, I have the experience to handle it with patience and confidence. With over 7 years of experience in veterinary hospitals, I’m comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of medical and behavioral needs. I also grew up showing cattle and horses, so animals have always been a central part of my life. My goal is simple: to provide safe, compassionate, and reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and strive to give them the attention, comfort, and care they deserve. I am currently working full time at the Veterinary Health Center at K-State so I do not have time during the weekdays during normal working hours but I would love to be there for you after work, walks in the mornings, or during your weekend get-a-way. Unfortunately I cannot have pets at my house but I would love to come and watch your pet/s to keep them happy in their own home with the surroundings they are used to!

We booked Kaley for a second time for a last-minute weekend trip. She communicated throughout the week confirming her availability, so we didn't have to wonder if we were forgotten or if anything else had come up. She took amazing care of Leo to our exact specifications and provided updates after each meal and medication dose. Highly recommended!

We were a little nervous, this being our first experience with Rover, but we got spoiled with Kailey! She immediately put us at ease with her authenticity, calm and friendly presence, and her knowledge of animal care and behavior. She was also patient with all our questions, our learning how to use Rover, and a schedule change. She went above and beyond, meeting our fearful dog without the other pets around, and won her over quickly! She also made good headway with our fearful kitty! She took excellent care of our home and all our pets' needs, and we came home to happy, stress-free fur-babies! We can't say enough good things about Kailey, and we would LOVE to have her pet-sit again!!

We looked forward to the pictures she sent every day. We did not worry at all while we were gone. We knew our two cats were getting exceptional care. We will definitely use Kaley again!
