“I needed recurring visits & Arrica was more than helpful with my dog! She truly saw my dog as her own & took wonderful care of him. Will be booking with her again if I need someone to drop in on him!”


“Vanessa was awesome! We only booked a drop in, but she helped us out a lot when we needed our girls to be taken potty while we were out of town for the day. Thank you again! We’ll definitely rebook in the future.”


“Kellie was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond to help us during one of the most difficult times in our lives. She was patient, understanding, flexible, and gave us such peace of mind allowing us to focus on being with family during the loss of my father and one of our fur-babies. I couldn't have asked for a better individual to come into our lives at our lowest point. She did such a great job with our fur-babies as well! It's not always easy working with stray/feral cats (which both out girls are), but she was amazing with them. I will definitely call her again for our next trip!”


About: Growing up with German Shepherds and a corgi, I learned patience, training skills, and responsibility. I also had two horses and often volunteered at the local stables caring for others' horses. Since then neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets. I hope to care for yours as well! I am currently working a full-time job, but I can care for pets in the evenings, on weekends, and I can house sit during trips or longer absences. I am unable to bring pets into my current home, but in my car I can transport your pets to necessary appointments or to favored dog parks. Whatever training you have with your pet, I will maintain, whether that means crate training or keeping pets out of certain locations in your home.

About: I grew up with dogs and small animals, and I’ve cared for pets at every stage of life, including comforting a big dog scared of storms and giving medications to cranky senior animals. I have two cats and a 9-yr-old chinchilla with big personalities. I know pets are our family members, and I look forward to caring for yours! Available for drop-ins and walks in the evenings and weekends. I live in River Market and work in midtown, so I can be available for some morning or lunchtime needs in those areas. I can house-sit nearby, too. Im very respectful and love detailed instructions. I’ve owned feisty, picky pets, so I’m happy to do whatever your animals need! I know it can be stressful having someone else come into your home and care for your pets, so I’ll take every measure to make sure you and your animals are comfortable

About: Family and friends come to me first if they need pets taken care of. I'm excellent with cats and dogs and follow instructions well. I know how picky I am about a sitter for my cats, so I promise to ease your mind and take care of them like I would want mine! I'm a marketer in the greater KC area and my schedule is very flexible. Other than lunchtime most days, I can move my day around to accommodate needs. We can definitely chat about your pet's schedule and work something out! I will follow your instructions exactly and respect your home like mine. Your peace and security is important to me so I will double check your requirements, and the door before I leave. If there is inclement weather, I will go straight to your place to check on everything and report back!

About: Had animals in my house since I was a child (dogs and cats). I have experience with animals of all ages which include puppies and senior animals. I work from home three times a week which gives me time for quick mid day walks/check-ups. I also could check in on your pet in the afternoon and early morning! I live in an apartment that has open outdoor space. I currently have a kitty of my own who does well with other animals !

About: I've been a lover of puppers and kitters since a very young age. I have never met an animal I didn't love, and would love to look after your baby 😍 I am currently in between jobs so I have plenty of availability to look after your pet! I look forward to hearing from you soon. I have a fenced in back yard and if your dog gets along with ours they will have tons of fun! Your pets safety and well being is priority number 1.

“Erica has done drop ins with our 2 labs a couple times now & is always reliable & takes great care of them! They love having her come over & it’s such a relief to be able to keep them at home. We would recommend Erica to anyone!”


About: WHY PICK ROVER: Because you get the assurance of knowing your beloved pet is enjoying their vacation as much as you are. WHY PICK ME: Because I love dogs. I enjoy spending time playing, cuddling, and relaxing. Typical kennels, both at your vet/groomers and the "pet resorts" have multiple pets, and employees that are on a set schedule. Your pet still spend 85% of their time in a kennel/crate/enclosure. While in my care they will be given individual attention. they will have free roam and access to the outdoors as needed and be home to attend to their needs. The safety, health and happiness of my fur friends is my priority. I have had multiple dogs my entire life. I have been hired by friends and family since I was in my teens to watch and care for animals during vacations. I have owned and tended to dogs as small as 10 pounds up to 200 pounds. Security and safety of your pets are of the utmost importance. I am a part time remote worker, so my time really belongs to your fur family. 90%. I may leave for occasional meeting or meal. I will take every effort to stick to your rules and your environment with your pup.. I don't mind dogs want to cuddle at night or that need to be crated. Having lived with both puppies and geriatric dogs, I am more than willing to do late night potty breaks or whatever necessary.

About: I have been walking, pet-setting, and playing with/ for family’s with dogs for years! I love taking them on walks to local parks as well! I have 5+ years of experience of house-sitting and walking dogs. I am currently available anytime! I am in sales and have a hybrid schedule and want to make this a fun vacation for your pets. I love taking dogs to the farmers markets, parks, riverfront, etc. I want to make sure they are having the best time possible during their stay.

About: Hi I’m Alicia! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. As I get ready to transition off of active duty, I’m looking to spend more time with animals and give local pet owners peace of mind. I know how it feels to worry about your fur babies at home. I have experience with a wide variety of pets. I have raised puppies, timid rescues and cared for elderly dogs with significant medical needs. Cats also hold a sweet place in my heart and I love giving them the attention they deserve. I have experience administering medication and tending to whatever specific needs your pet has to make them most comfortable. I am working remote and mostly available during lunch, late afternoon and early evening for offsite visits. Any guest staying in our home will have my attention and the opportunity for plenty of dog walks. During my visits or an in home stay it is my goal to make the pet experience the least amount of stress possible. If your pet is happy, than you can be happy and enjoy your travels, work or any other life demands. I will take care of your pet as my own and provide the highest standard of care. We have a fenced in back yard and our dog Sheldon serves as a great buddy to other pets who may be homesick.

About: Hi there! I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 16 and working at a doggy daycare/inn. We were in charge of feeding, medicating, exercising, bathing, and running play groups. Since then I’ve become a dog bather where I’ve learned more about proper handling and animal body language. I would love to take care of your baby! Whether that means walking, playing fetch or tug-of-war-ing, getting some cuddles in, or a combination of all of the above, I’m your person! I have a pretty open schedule, I bathe dogs in the mornings Tuesday-Thursday and Saturdays. My afternoons are open, and I can make early mornings work if we need to:). I offer animal sitting in your home, so they can be as comfortable as possible. I’m also very aware of animal body language and think the best way to dog sitting is to meet them where they are and do what makes them happy. If that means we’re playing tug of war for hours, we’re doin it! If it means we sit on opposite sides of the room while your baby slowly decides if they love or hate me, we can do that too! I want to provide them with safety and security while their parents are gone.

About: I've been taking care of dogs almost my whole life, and cats for at least 10 years. I'm most experienced in taking care of bigger dogs, but can do smaller as well. For age, I've had puppies, seniors, and everything in-between. Neighbors, family, and friends have always enjoyed whenever I take care of their loved animals. I currently have a mostly open availability, especially on week days. I take care of mine, and my roommates pets on the daily, and would have plenty of time to come take care of yours too! I would not be able to board in my home, but I am more than willing to stay as long as needed in your home to give your pets the best care I possibly can. I would follow your instructions on your specific pets care routine, and ask any questions I have. As well as walks, I can play with your pets or give them space.

Carson C.
“If you are looking for a caring, compassionate person to come visit with or walk your dogs, you couldn't do better than Carson! You know how dogs just have that "sense" about who will be good to them? Well, they definitely know Carson is in that group. They react with joy when he comes to visit. I'm a Rover host, myself, but when we're away I feel 100% comfortable letting him stay in my home. He's such a reliable guy that I know he'll keep me up to date with how things are going and send me pictures so I'm more at peace being away from my pups. I'm sure you'll feel the same way!”

Your pets will be in great hands with Alicia!”


Tatum O.
“Tatum is the most dog obsessed person I know. From taking care of their own dog to seeing a passing dog on the street, they care so deeply about each dog that they encounter.”


Kodiak K.
“Kody has great experience taking care of a variety of pets. Kody took care of our dogs, a Siberian husky and a German Shepherd mix, our bunny, and two cats when I was out of town on a number of occasions. Each time the pets were well cared for and happy. Kody is very attentive and responsible while being understanding and compassionate with the animals they watch. I highly recommend Kody!”
North Kansas City dog parents share their Rover experiences
I was very nervous to leave my animals with someone for the first time and Jaden completely dissipated those fears! She was willing to come meet them beforehand and was super communicative! She was kind enough to help my dog with some unexpected heath needs that required passing meds and spent time with all the animals to make sure they were doing okay. I would definitely use her services again and refer her to anyone!!

Brianna was great, she came over last minute when we were in a pinch and hung out with the dogs. We asked for a quick potty break and she stayed around longer so they can have more time out in the yard, which is very nice of her to do. Would recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter!

Samantha was EXCELLENT to work with when we had to change our plans last minute, and had an ill senior dog to boot. Her communication is very good, and I can tell from the photos and videos that she sent that our dogs and cat were very comfortable with her. You can trust Samantha to take great care of your fur babies!
