About: I've been a volunteer at Caring Hands Humane Society for 4+ years, and in January of 2022 I raised a litter of 6 Pomsky puppies! I have a 4+ year old orange Siberian Husky, and I've grown up with a couple family dogs, so I've always been around animals and want to pursue an animal related career! I'm currently working a part time job, and I would love to take your dog for a walk, play with them, or simply keep them company while you're away! I'm available 9am - 9pm Mon, Wed, Thu, but am somewhat flexible on weekends for house sitting. I have a fenced backyard and 2 energetic Siberian Huskies that are very friendly and play well with new dogs; I take them to the Newton dog park often and they absolutely love it! I can provide a crate for a medium - large dog if needed/requested. My dog sleeps in my room with an open crate so she can sleep in her crate or just on the floor. I have plenty chew toys, everything from tennis balls to rope toys to an assortment of squeakers!
“Alexis has been wonderful every time we’ve booked with her. She is tender with our animals and pays attention to them every second she’s there. She always reassures us of our doggies and goes above and beyond. We are grateful for her!”
About: I’ve had a dog most of my life, but I’ve owned Cavaliers for 15 years. I’ve cared for multiple dogs (and cats) at one time. I prefer to care for dogs in your home. I can also care for fish, chickens and do general housekeeping. I reside in El Dorado, but for the last year, I have been substitute teaching in the Wichita metro area. Therefore, I do have some flexibility in my schedule at this point. I’m able to do potty runs during the day provided the distance allows it. I prefer to care for pets in my client’s home so that the dogs are used to their normal environment and routine. If needed, I can care for a single small-medium sized dog in my home, although the dog must be comfortable being on a leash as I do not have a fenced yard. Also, I am not a smoker or drinker.
“Sent great updates, came on time and stayed the full duration, and I loved the pictures. Thankful that Sam was able to accommodate so many visits and my dog was happy and well taken care of!”
“Meghan & Kenny were wonderful! Yoda, our Bichon Frise was happy and content everyday we picked him up, he went willingly with them each day and that's saying a lot! They are flexible and when I said I was running late they said it was okay, they were warm and friendly and when I am in Wichita, KS I will definitely be looking them up again, highly recommend!”
“Alyx is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about taking care of animals! Our first meeting was the most thoughtful meet-and-greet I have had with a sitter and Alyx got along great with baby-cat. I felt completely at ease to leave my pet in her care, I definitely recommend Alyx’s services to anyone who wants to make make sure their pet is a priority!”
“Laine was amazing, she made sure my shy cat felt not only at ease but happy. My cat is usually shy but he is completely in love with her to the point that after I came back he kept looking for her!! She is the best pet sitter I've had far best, definitely will ask her to pet sit again in a second.”
“Madysen was great! She cared for our elder cat who needs medication daily. She sent us updates and photos daily and made us feel much more comfortable leaving our baby home alone.”
About: I've been an animal lover since I was four when my first dog came into my life :) I started pet sitting for family and friends when I was around ten, and it's been something I've loved doing ever since. I've cared for all types of pets - from puppies to senior dogs, cats of all personalities, turtles, fish, and even some farm animals! I have no problem giving medications - I've given insulin injections to diabetic dogs many times and understand how important it is to stick to medication schedules. I understand how pets thrive on their familiar routines and environment. I'll make sure to maintain their schedule and send you updates with plenty of photos while you're away :) I know firsthand that there’s nothing better than seeing your pets happy and relaxed when you can't be with them! I work remotely and choose my own hours, so my schedule is quite flexible! I’m a bit of a night owl naturally, so I especially love taking fur babies for evening walks, but any time I get to care for an animal is a great time :) I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, turtles, chickens, and everything in between for over ten years now, so I have experience handling almost every situation that could come about :) I’ve administered insulin via injection to dogs, fed both cats and dogs pills, cleaned up after them if there are any accidents, placed them in (and taken them out of) crates gently and calmly, and generally whatever was necessary to ensure that every pet in my care is happy and well taken care of.
“Kimber is positive, upbeat, and had wonderful energy the moment she stepped in to meet the pets. The chemistry between the herd and her was magnificent and the video I received supported it when they were playing. Would love to book her again in the future ☺️”
About: I have been taking care of my friends dog for 4 years. I love taking dogs on walks and I can drop in your dogs and check on them! I can take dogs on walks after work and weekends during mornings and nights as well! I can check on them during the evenings as well I will follow instructions that are provided to me by the owners! I will build a relationship between the dogs and myself and the owners!
About: I’ve taken care of animals such as fish, cats, dogs birds and even a turtle in the backyard for a while before! I love to work with animals once we know each other and be a new friend to them and relate my experiences with them and learn new ones I work remote so any of these options work as long as you have reliable internet and Wi-Fi connections at your place. That is a total necessity. I do not have pets where I live. I do not have the room. Most animals do best in their own environment they are familiar with in my experiences.
About: I have had 6 dogs in my lifetime 2 Labradors, 3 Miniature Dachshund and a Schnauzer. I currently live with 3 Miniature Daschunds. My favorite thing about my fur babies is to play and snuggle with them. My dogs are my world and I hope I get to meet your pets! I’m currently looking to help care for dogs when I am not at work. I typically work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays from 8-4. I am very flexible as well. I live with 2 dogs currently and I typically take the dogs out every 2 hours and take time out of the day to play with them and or go on a walk if I’m not busy.
About: Hi! I have taken care of animals since I was a young child. I grew up taking care of a German Shepard and two cats. When I was a teenager I was the primary caretaker for my cat. From age 16-20 I volunteered at two animal shelters working with horses, farm animals, dogs and cats. I gained many interesting experiences working with goats, chickens, ducks and other animals while at the shelter. I dedicated more than twenty hours weekly volunteering. I currently have an older dog, who I adopted over four years ago when I lived in Florida. I am passionate about providing people's pets with quality walks and care. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to trust someone to take good care of your pet, but I work hard to ensure the pets are well cared for while you are away. I am a nursing student and will be working at my job part time to accommodate my class schedule. When I am not in classes or at work, my availability is very open. My schedule does vary as nursing school schedules vary but I am very communicative regarding scheduling and availability. I care deeply about pet care and ensuring pets are treated with love and kindness. I saw first hand how hard it can be to trust someone to take of your pets while you are away. It is my mission to ensure that each animal in my care is treated with love, kindness and with the utmost care. I ensure that if you trust me with your beloved family member I will make sure that they are comfortable and happy while in my care. I appreciate you considering and trusting me to be apart of your animals life.

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.

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 .
