About: I grew up taking care of my family’s dog. Additionally, I have assisted friends in taking care of their animals whilst growing up and through to the present. One of my favorite skills is I can take the silliest photos of any pet I have a full time job, but I am pretty flexible with my mornings and evenings. I work in downtown KC, so I am not too far from anywhere in the metro I have to cats of my own, and they live in a lovable environment where they have full reign. I pour my love into any animals that I am near. I give the attention animals needs whenever I do a drop-in.

Kaitlyn was super professional and wonderful with our cats. She sent pics and communicated along the way. She spent extra time with them and the cat litter and food areas were spotless. Will definitely be using her again!!!!!!

About: **Cats-only boarding + Dog walking + Drop-ins** Adopted my fur baby over 2 years ago and have been in charge of pet sitting for my friends, since! I know the stress of leaving my pet in others’ care too well, so be prepared for daily proof-of-life pics from me 🤗 I’m also a type a med student, so you best bet my place is cat-proofed and i quadruple check anything that will come in contact with the pets ‼️ Pets will receive personalized attention based on need, but I will have my own cat here as well!! She’s very social and sweet, so she enjoys company. I have a room for your baby to acclimate slowly if need be :) My apartment has a pet elevator and areas to walk dogs, as well. I have a pretty flexible schedule this year, so I will be available at home for most of the weekend and weekday afternoons-evenings. I might skip breakfast if I wake up late, but keeping pet food out is non-negotiable ‼️ I clean litter boxes, groom, brush teeth daily. No cat-toxic plants in environment and all cabinets with household supplies are pet-proofed. Have a cat tree, cat tunnels, and plenty of places for cats to perch and scratch. I use Feliway Multicat calming diffusers to ease introduction between cats. I have experience giving my cat oral medications, training her to use an inhaler as well. My place is kept clean with a cleaning robot and weekly deep cleans.

Rafaela was amazing with my cat and dog! They were both so comfortable and happy when I got home, and she kept me updated with photos and messages while I was away and even made me aware of a beeping noise that was coming from the laundry unit. You can tell Rafaela really cares about animals — my pets were in great hands and I would gladly book Rafaela again!

About: I have had many animals over the years. As I child, we had so many breeds of dogs. From Saint Bernard, Great Dane, and Bull Mastiff. To sheep dogs and small mixed breed dogs. We currently bace 1 cat, who is the chillest, sweetest cat I’ve ever known. We have 5 kids, who LOVE animals. Your sweet fur baby won’t even know you are gone, with all the love they would get at our house. I was laid off in 2024, so I am currently home with our toddler, while the big kids are at school. So your fur baby would have someone with them all day! We have a big fenced in yard, and a great neighborhood for walks! Your fur baby would be well loved in our care. I am currently home with our 1 year old daughter. My oldest are in school. We go to the gym a few times a week, and do some reselling on the side. But we are never gone for very long and can give your fur baby lots of love and attention. I have a fenced yard, with a 6 foot fence. So your fur baby will be safe! We have plenty of space to crate if needed. We also have a cat tree and lots of good hiding spots for more timid kitties.

Taylor did a fantastic job with my kitties! They both came out for her. She spent lots of quality time with them. My home looked and smelled clean when we got home from vacation, which never happens. She refilled my auto feeder when it got low and kept on top of the wet food and water refills. She even ran the vacuum and swept up litter kicked out of the box by my crazy young one. 10/10 recommend!

About: I grew up with 2 cats, 2 dogs, and 2 birds; Big animal lover! I have experience being around previously abused dogs, particularly anxious cats, and blood-thirsty parrots. I’m a firm believer of taking everything at the animal’s pace. I work from home with flexible scheduling, so I can be available any weekday between 7-10am, noon-1, and 4pm onward. I just need a day’s notice for timing. I live in a small apartment with my two cats, so I will not be offering boarding. However, I’m happy to walk, check-in, or house sit your pets in their safe space!

About: Hello! My name is Kate. I have owned dogs from shizus to pit bulls and loved them all. I believe all dogs need the most care and affection while also having a space to run free and play, which is why I currently do not own a dog due to living in an apartment. Sadly, not having a dog, has left me with a void that needs to be filled by longs walks and many belly rubs. I care for my family and friends’ dogs when they are away. I enjoy walks with dogs and playing fetch. I am free on weekends and at night. During the summer, I will be home full-time as well. I also have two cats of my own that I've raised since they were kittens. As of right now, I am off work all summer and go back on August 9 as a teacher. This means I will be available anytime after 4:00 pm during the week and am free all weekend. When housing another animal, I always separate them when leaving the house. I believe in meet and greets with the pet and owner to ensure that the pet trusts me and the owner feels safe with leaving their animal with me. If you have a strict diet or routine for your animal, know that it will be followed to a tee. I know how easily an animal can get off its routine, so I hold it in high regard.

This was the first time I have had Claudia watch my two cats, and it won’t be the last! She is wonderful, paying attention to detail and had great communication. She was patient and loving to one of my cats who can be difficult. She was always on time and made sure to reach out with any questions. I’d highly recommend Claudia for any of your fur babies needs!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own, so caring for dogs isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s already built into my daily routine. My schedule is structured around their needs, including multiple long walks each day, consistent feeding times, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I live this every day, I understand how important routine, exercise, and a calm environment are for dogs. I’m especially attentive to energy levels, behavior changes, and making sure each dog gets the right balance of activity and rest. What sets me apart is the level of consistency and care I provide—your dog won’t just be watched, they’ll be integrated into a structured, active, and attentive environment. Whether it’s walks or boarding, I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, exercised, and well cared for. I work full-time with a mix of work-from-home and in-office days. On days I’m home, your dog will have consistent attention and regular breaks throughout the day. When I’m in the office, I come home over lunch to let dogs out and check in. I primarily offer boarding on weekends but am open to weeknight stays as well, depending on your dog’s needs. Your dog will be cared for like part of the family while staying in my home. I have two playful, friendly dogs who enjoy making new friends and can help keep your pup entertained and socialized. I focus on maintaining routines, providing regular walks and potty breaks, and making sure every dog gets the attention, exercise, and comfort they need to feel at home.

About: I am new to Rover but I have watched my friends and families dogs over the past few years. I live with my girlfriend and am a dog dad to 2 senior dogs named Roxy and Andrew. As a UMKC business student, I'm hoping to start my own doggy daycare business in the future with my girlfriend and figured Rover would be a great place to start! My dogs are 2 of the most important things in my life and I make sure they know it. At my home your pet will be no different and I hope to become part of their extended family away from home. At my home I will be making sure your pup is comfortable, happy, and enjoys their stay. They will get plenty of potty breaks and exercise in as well as all the R&R that their heart desires. My pups love meeting new friends that they can lounge around with as well. My house is always dog safe and I will always make sure to keep you updated. I currently live with my girlfriend and I've had a dog since 2010. I have 2 senior pups named Roxy and Andrew who are currently living their best life. I make sure that they are fed twice a day with some snacks or treats in between. On nice days I make sure they get enough exercise in the back yard or at the park. I have plenty of dog toys for your little one to play with. We can do a meet and greet as well to make sure everything is perfect during your stay.

About: With a lifelong love for furry companions, my pet care journey has been shaped by the joyous company of a Labrador and a Chihuahua, both cherished members of my family since their puppy days. This hands-on experience has instilled in me patience, a positive approach, and an unwavering commitment to providing animals with engaging and fulfilling experiences. I am dedicated to extending this passion to your beloved pets, ensuring they receive the utmost care, attention, and joyful moments during our time together. I have flexibility in my day to stretch my legs and accompany your dog on a walk prior to work, during my lunch, or after work. When I take dogs for a walk, I make sure to stay attentive to their requirements. I make a conscious effort to prevent any reactive situations for the dog, strive to make the walk enjoyable by incorporating numerous grassy sniffing areas, and remain consistently vigilant to ensure a positive and pleasant experience for the dog.

Regan did a wonderful job with the drop in visits. My dog really liked him and my shyest cat came out to see him, which I consider a good sign. Regan also made sure the feral cats had food and water as requested. Sent me photos & quick updates. I would love to hire Regan again when I go out of town.

Jennifer is an absolute sweetheart and Louie loves having her as a sitter. He even goes to his kennel all by himself while I'm getting ready for work. She checks in regularly and gives me photo updates. The most important thing is that she gives him the care and attention I'm not able to give him while I'm at work. I book with her every week because I'm so happy with the way she takes care of my baby boy.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - North Kansas City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in North Kansas City on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,700 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across North Kansas City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a North Kansas City stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in North Kansas City choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in North Kansas City with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Kansas City. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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 calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
