“Kat was a great cat sitter for my cat who recently was put on a slew of medications. She handled her complicated medication schedule very well. She took great care of my cat and of my home, and was very responsive to any communications I sent.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was about 10. Through family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. All pets I’ve had had been extremely well trained and behaved. I take care of them as if they’re my kids I’m currently working full time but get off early in evenings. I am available all day during the weekends so spending time with your fur baby(ies) won’t be a problem I can crate your dog if trained. My yard is not fenced but I do have a ton of trails near my house and am close to Shawnee mission park. Would likely keep your dog at your home so it’s more comfortable and come take care of it there!
“Shelby is amazing and went above and beyond for our old kitty! She made extra time to make sure she got her meds even when our cat was putting up a protest and took the time to play and hang with her. She even watered our plants without us asking! Highly recommend and will definitely ask Shelby to sit again!”
“Megan was great with our two cats! She gave detailed updates and photos during her drop-in visits while we were out of town. I appreciated her attempts to lure our shy cat out from under the bed with treats! She had no issues giving our older cat his oral medication and spent time brushing/playing with him when she visited. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Ashley was fantastic to drop-in on my cat while I was traveling. She's great with meds, so patient, and knows how to help shy cats like mine feel safe and comfortable. Thanks Ashley!”
“Mikayla is super sweet and went above and beyond to take care of my doggo over the weekend! Her pups are also very friendly and I appreciated getting to know her and her animals beforehand. I’d trust her with my dog any time!”
About: Lifelong Animal Lover with Advanced Care Experience I grew up surrounded by both dogs and cats, and my life has always revolved around animal companionship. I don't just love pets; I understand them deeply. Because I specialize in dog walking and drop-in visits (up to 3 times a day), my focus is entirely on providing structured, safe, and attentive care right in your pet's familiar environment. Expert Medical & Senior Pet Care I have extensive, hands-on experience managing complex care for pets of all life stages, including disabled senior animals. If your pet has specialized needs, they are in highly capable hands. I am fully confident and experienced with: Administering oral medications, pill hiding, and precise schedules. Managing advanced medical treatments, including injectables and subcutaneous (Sub-Q) fluids. Assisting pets with mobility aids, harnesses, and specialized diets. Managing senior pet hygiene, including diaper changes and cleanup. Understanding Behavioral Quirks & Big Personalities As a proud owner of two large bully breeds—one who manages severe anxiety and reactivity, and another a rescue recovering from past neglect—I understand that not every dog is a textbook "easy" walker. I am trained in patience, hyper-vigilant environmental awareness, and reading subtle animal body language to keep your reactive, fearful, or strong pup safe on walks. My home is also run by three incredible cats ranging from 3 to 10 years old (including an aloof kitty, a social butterfly, and a sweet disabled cat requiring extra patience). Having previously rehabilitated a rescue cat who became disabled with age, I know exactly how to respect a feline's boundaries while ensuring their needs are met. Whether your cat wants a high-energy play session, gentle grooming, or just a quiet human presence to keep them company, I adapt entirely to their mood. Because I work from home full-time, my schedule is highly flexible and reliable. I am available throughout the day to accommodate your pet's specific routine, offering dog walking and drop-in visits anywhere from 1 to 3 times a day. Here is how my lifestyle benefits you and your pet: Punctual & Consistent Timing: Since I am not tied to a rigid office commute, I can visit your pet at their preferred times for meals, medication, or potty breaks. Mid-Day Break Specialists: I am readily available for lunch-time walks to break up the day for high-energy dogs, puppies, or senior pets who cannot hold it for long. Rapid Emergency Response: Working locally from home means I am never far away. If your pet has a sudden change in schedule or an urgent need, I can adapt quickly. Your peace of mind is my top priority. I treat every animal with the same meticulous care, patience, and fierce love that I give to my own unique fur family. Here is what I bring to every walk or drop-in visit: Frequent Photo & Video Updates: My camera roll is already completely full of my own pets. You can expect detailed, visual updates during every single visit so you know your pet is thriving. Proactive Dog Safety: I bring hyper-vigilant environmental awareness, patience, and deep knowledge of subtle animal body language to every walk. This ensures your reactive, fearful, or strong pup stays completely safe. Customized Cat Care: I know exactly how to respect a feline's boundaries while ensuring their needs are met. Whether your cat wants a high-energy play session, gentle grooming, or just a quiet human presence, I adapt entirely to their mood.
“We can’t say enough great things about Samantha! She was so flexible with our work schedules and absolutely so sweet with our 2 fur babies. I think they miss her! Such a comforting thought, knowing that they were taken care of. Can’t wait to book again!”
About: Hi! My name is Amanda. I’ve been a cat mama to 2 of my own fur babies for about 5 years now, but I have always grown up with cats and the sweetest little Yorkshire terrier dog. When I’m not home with my kitties, I’m in the classroom teaching my 2-5 year old babies! The skills I’ve learned through being special education early childhood teacher go hand-in-hand with being a good pet mama. Although cleaning up 💩 isn’t my favorite part of the job, it’s worth it to love on BOTH the fur babies and human babies. 🤣 You can trust that I will show the utmost patience, care, and love with your animals as though they are my own. And you can trust that you will receive many photos! 🥰 I am on summer break until August 6th, and have lots of availability during the week and weekends! My daily routine with my kitties includes feeding, letting them sun-bathe on the balcony, and vacuuming litter all day (LOL). I care for any and all fur babies as though they are my own. You can trust that they will be addressed with care, patience, and lots of cuddles and kisses.

Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Marci, Chandler! Knowing you were popping in three times a day and being so reliable brought me total peace of mind. The regular photo updates were fantastic and made me feel so connected while I was away. I truly appreciate your exceptional care 🧡
Kirsten was outstanding! She was so easy to work with and flexible. She followed all +the instructions and sent great (and humorous) photos each visit. My cat loved her! What a relief to come home to a relaxed, happy cat. I highly recommend her, and will definitely ask her back for my next trip!
Michelle was so amazing, it warmed my heart to know someone was actually giving my cat love and attention as much as I would because that’s usually a pet owners biggest fear. I was out of the country for around two weeks and worried about my cat because she tends to be a little shy and scared of new people and typically i only know how to deal with her. Michelle was perfect !! letting my cat slowly warm up to her presence visit by visit. She would send photos every visit and that was very reassuring, she would play with my cat and feed her and cuddle with gigi. I would get photos of gigi playing, running, and cuddling which is not her norm for when she meets new people so i was very happy with that.There wasn’t a moment where I was worried about my gigi. Michelle is so nice and compassionate and sweet and it shows because my gigi warmed up to her, she responds to messages and updates me where i felt reassured and comfortable, I could not be happier that i found her to take care of my cat and i was honestly lucky to have her as my pet sitter.I would definitely choose her again over anyone if I ever had to leave my cat again but in general with any animal because she actually cares.
Amber is a very reliable, friendly and caring pet sitter! She took a fantastic care of our cat Elvis while we were away, followed all the instructions and our home was just in the same state as we left it. We appreciated daily updates and pictures and we will definitely book again when we go away! We highly recommend Amber!
Lauren was the absolute best! Meeting w her previously to scheduling visits, I could tell she was a real animal lover. My old girl Chloe was recently diagnosed with diabetes and I had only just started medication when I needed to schedule a sitter due to work. I was naturally a nervous wreck but Lauren was extremely competent & communicative. She sent me a bunch of updates and photos every time she stopped by and went above and beyond to make me feel better about leaving Chloe to someone else. I will absolutely be using her services again!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
