“Michelle was very punctual and communicative during the stay. Kirara loved her and she sent photos each day. Definitely recommend for check ins or house sitting. Will most definitely book again!”
About: Hi! I'm Michelle, I've been dogsitting for friends and family since ~2016 and finally became a dog mom in 2020--it's the best! My husband, Brad, and I both love animals and are excited to join the Rover sitter community. We are comfortable with dogs of any age and any breed, and would care for your dog as if s/he were our own. We can administer medications as needed (we mostly have experience with oral and topical meds, but are willing to learn what's needed for your furry friend) and are very attentive to your dog's diet and feeding regime. We can't wait to welcome your dog into our home while you are away! Michelle works from home so your dog won't be on their own for long periods while staying at our home. We love taking our dog, Joni, on walks (& runs) everyday (we usually go several times each day) and we have a large fenced in yard for additional playtime, so your pup will get lots of outside time to burn off energy and sniff. Your dog will have full access to our home, just as our Joni does, with a variety of toys and bed options (including couches) available throughout the day. You'll get regular photo updates of your pup's adventures while you're away (unless otherwise requested). My husband and I have a large, fenced in backyard that's perfect for zoomies and playtime, and live in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Our 6 year old pup, Joni, is always looking for new friends and someone to share her toys with (she's up to date on her vaccinations and preventative meds and ask that your dog be as well). If your dog is crate trained, we'd be happy to find a space to set that up for them in our home during their stay, or they are welcome to use Joni's old crate which we can set up if needed. Additionally, feel free to bring any toys or bedding/blankets that help make your dog feel at home; we want him/her to have what they need to be comfy while you are away.
“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 am grateful that I got to grow up around animals and build special bonds with them! Ever since I was little, I cared for my own pets, my family’s and friend’s. I am detail oriented and care about you and your pet! I work full time during the week and I am off later in the evenings. My weekends are open to care for your furry friends! It is my top priority to create consistency and safety for my own cat, and that is still just as important when it comes to your pets! I appreciate clarity when it comes to expectations regarding your pets care.
About: I have had animals my whole life and love animals of all varieties/dispositions. I also have over 4 years of experience working in an animal shelter. My experience is primarily with dogs/cats but I have cared for guinea pigs/reptiles before, as well. I currently own a cat named Elle and I consider her to be my daughter. She gets endless attention from me and I'll provide that same attention to your pet(s) while I'm watching them. My schedule is currently very flexible so I should be able to make most times work. Any day of the week works for me, as well. I am a lax cat dad and let her do what she wants to, basically. Even if my furniture doesn't like it. She does pretty much everything with me, including cooking. I make sure she has plenty of enrichment in the house, as well. I'm happy to have a similar approach with your pet(s). If you prefer a more strict environment, please just let me know what that entails/what's off limits and I'll happily accommodate.
“Amina was great with our two cats for the weekend. We just added our kitten Boots to the family so we were nervous leaving for a quick weekend trip. Amina was understanding about the introduction process between the two cats that we were going through and made sure everyone was well taken care of and happy.”
“Vanessa was wonderful with our cat. We haven't felt comfortable leaving him in a while but we felt comfortable with Vanessa and we were able to take a short trip, knowing he was in good hands. Her communication was great and I would definitely use her again. 🐾”
“Mikayla has been a blessing for Murphy. He is excited to see her when she comes to drop in. You can tell she has a calm presence with him. I highly recommend her and have told people she would be one they should use.”
“Maggie was great at communicating about our cats and any important updates. She also proactively reached out for any schedule adjustment requests and made sure they were well taken care of”
“Kelly was super communicative and showed up on time for each of the drop in visits with my cats. She took tons of photos and when I came home a week later the cats barely reacted, which lets me know they were well looked after and didn't feel starved for attention (or food!). I would definitely recommend Kelly!”
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!
“Katelyn is great! She takes excellent care of my boys when we are away, she's flexible and communicative. I have a high anxiety cat, a velcro cat and a kitten who is terrified of most people. These boys are almost never alone most days and I'm grateful that Katelyn keeps them company when we are out of town.”
“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!”
“Hayley was great with our sassy cats, she checked in on them, gave them treats and tried to play with them! She sent me photos every visit and took such good care of them!”

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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Mission is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 404 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Mission. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
