“Whitney provided hands down the best rover experience anybody could ask for. She sent pictures, kept us updated, and communicated consistently, and her overall care for Julio was exceptional. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Highly recommend 20/10.”
About: Hello pet parents! I am currently attending veterinary school at K-State, and I have worked within the veterinary medicine field for many years. My own pets are my pride and joy, but I enjoy the opportunity to meet new furry friends through Rover. If you need boarding services, dog walking services, or drop-in services, then I’m confident in my ability to meet your needs. I truly love working with animals, and I look forward to all the tail wags and happy meows in my future! Besides caring for my own 1.5 year old Aussiedoodle, I also care for animals as a vet tech. My job includes everything from cleaning up messes, to administer vaccinations, to simply loving on the pets in the clinic. In my home, I make sure that dogs are always leashed when outside of my apartment. All possible hazards to a pet are kept out of reach and pets have 24 hr access to water. At clients homes, I make sure to keep the home clean and tidy, as well as making sure that the pet is entertained and cared for at all times. Anytime, anywhere! If there is a schedule conflict, then I will be sure to let you know in advance. Apart from being a student, my schedule is open. I have a large backyard and two dogs who would love the opportunity to meet other doggy/cat friends. My entire family adores animals, and you can be sure that I will strive to ensure the comfort and happiness of your pet.

“Kaylyn was awesome! This was our first time leaving Riley with a sitter overnight so I was pretty nervous, but Kaylyn really knows what she is doing and eased all my worries. She is super responsive, sent tons of adorable pictures of Riley and her pup Ragnar playing and snuggling. Riley was very happy coming home and seemed like he had a good time, we will definitely be booking with Kaylyn again! :)”

About: I've had dogs my entire life. My grandfather was a dog trainer and when I went to visit him, I helped him care for any of the dogs he had at the time. I currently have a 1.5 year old Husky German Shepherd mix. She has PRAA so I have become very comfortable with special feeding instructions as a result. I work during during the week. I am home everyday by approximately 12pm. On the weekends I am home all the time, we live a 5 minute drive or 10 minute walk from a dog park and we love going all the time. I have a large fenced in backyard. We live on a quiet street and all of our neighbors are very friendly. My dog loves sitting out in the backyard on the deck or playing fetch.
“Once again Daisy was in great care with Dori. Pictures are so reassuring, Daisy got to play in water and not get locked up at night but got to sleep with other pups and Dori. If you’re looking for someone to love you pup, she’s the person you want!! Thanks again Dori”

“Ms. Brandi and her family were amazing. Her and her daughter welcomed me and Arrow for a meet and greet and I knew right then that I wanted to choose their family. I received daily photos/videos/updates throughout the day. I would definitely choose them if they are available. Arrow enjoyed his stay and the proof was him sleeping the entire ride back home and through the entire night. Thank you again. -AA (Akita &Arrow)”

About: I’ve take care dogs since I was 7 always around dogs and always helping neighbors with their dogs. It is the best environment that I love to in it. I’m currently working on base but I’m always available after 5 pm and weekends for walking daily after 5 pm or staying with me if someone needs to travel. I have a fenced backyard and friendly dog that loves to play so I have enough space for more dogs and toys for them to play.
“Sarah was absolutely AMAZING! She was dependable, great at communicating and clearly cared about my dogs. Despite that they made her life extra difficult by finding every mud puddle in her yard, Sarah still managed to take excellent care of them, clean them up and bring them inside at night to ensure they wouldn't be uncomfortable. She was great in every way and I'll definitely be using her as a sitter in the future. 5 stars!”
About: For the last 20 years I've been deeply involved with dog rescue and fostering. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments as well as dogs in need of special care. I am an animal lover through and through and I will make sure your friend(s) will get the loving care they deserve. If your pets have medications that they routinely need I have lots of experience with administering meds and dealing with other health issues. I have a relatively flexible work schedule Monday through Friday, I can do walks and play in the early afternoon most days as well as evenings. Ask me about my boarding service as well ! I currently live with three seniors and two younger pups, I live out in the country and have two homes, on one of the properties there are two fenced areas with plenty of room for zoomies. If you would like to board your friends with me, I am fine with having them out and about in the house when I'm present, but they would most likely need to be crated if left alone. Contact me with questions and I can give you more details.
Manhattan pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jessi did a wonderful job with our girl! She has a very clean environment, individual kennel space and we loved receiving the daily pictures. Our girl felt right at home besides having more fur friends to play with. She came home very happy. We highly recommend her. Truly worth every penny!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Amazing Dog Sitter! I recently had my dog cared for by Colton and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that they genuinely love and understand animals. They treated my dog like family, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in their care. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates, pictures, and messages that showed my dog having fun, getting plenty of attention, and being well taken care of. My dog can be a little shy with new people, but he warmed up to them instantly which says a lot about their energy and patience. The home was clean, safe, and dog-friendly, and they followed all my instructions perfectly. When I picked my dog up, he was happy, calm, and clearly had a great time. It gave me huge peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Colton to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with them again!
Sylvie was wonderful watching my puppy over the weekend! She was so accommodating in taking in a young puppy and made sure he was well cared for. I really appreciated the daily pictures and updates—it gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely trust Sylvie to watch him again!
Nicole was amazing! She took great care of my Annie. She sent updates and pictures which made me very happy. Nicole seems very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors. My puppy started her period the day I dropped her off and Nicole took great care of her. Definitely recommend letting her watch your baby!
Crissie is a exceptional furbaby caregiver. From the start, she was very attentive to listening to our needs for our furbaby while in her care. She assured us that she was qualified to deliver and loved interacting with furbabies. And deliver, she did! She made sure she kept us informed of how our furbaby was adjusting to his new environment while we were away from us through messages, photos and video clips. This type of communication made us feel at ease, seeing that our little furbaby boy was enjoying his time with Crissie and Booker her dog, who is such a gentle spirited sweetheart. If you are looking for someone who is kind, considerate and cares about your pet's well being then look no futher as Crissie and Booker are perfect for the job🤗. She will help you feel that your furbaby will be in good hands while you are away from them. By the way, now when I say " lets go see Crissie and Booker, right away our little furbaby wags his tail and sprints towards the door with such excitement 😆. Seeing Gustavo show such excitement just mentioning going to visit Crissie and Booker assured me that he was well loved and cared for while in her care. Thank you Crissie and Booker for providing top-notched care for our little boy, Gustavo. We are looking forward to our next visit with you guys!🤗😺
