About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life! 🐾 I grew up with dogs from the time I was five years old, and my parents raised Boxer puppies throughout much of my childhood, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. As an adult, I’ve continued to have dogs of my own, including my Yorkie who has been by my side for the past 12 years. I truly believe our pets are family, and I’m always thoughtful about their individual needs, routines, personalities and comfort. When your dog is in my care, I’ll treat them just like I would want someone to treat my own—with lots of love, attention, patience and affection. Whether they need playtime, walks, cuddles, companionship or just someone who makes them feel safe while you’re away, their needs will always come first. ❤️🐶 I work from home, which gives me lots of flexibility to provide your fur baby with plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime and snuggles throughout the day. 🐾 I also teach a few classes at a local gym, so there may be short periods when I’m away, but I always make sure pups are taken care of before I leave and as soon as I return. Weekends are especially flexible for me, and weekday availability can vary. I’m happy to discuss your pup’s routine and needs before booking to make sure their schedule is a great fit with mine. ❤️ Your fur baby’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. ❤️ I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with my own sweet Yorkie, so any pups staying in my home should be friendly and comfortable around other dogs. I want both your pup and mine to feel safe, relaxed and happy together. I’m very attentive to each dog’s individual personality, routine and needs, and I’ll follow your instructions closely. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, snuggles or just relaxing nearby, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and are treated just like family. 🐾💕
“Samantha was fantastic with my cat over the holidays. She got our shy cat became her friend in just a couple visits and was great administering meds. Would definitely hire again!”
“Theresa took great care of my two cats while I was out of town. She was super responsive and gave daily updates with lots of pictures. She even got my shy kitty to come out from under the bed after a couple of days.”
“Brendan is the BEST! he took care of our sweet but very anxious girl amazingly. we have never seen her happier after a longer term stay with any other sitter. Brendan handles complicated pets with ease and patience.”
“Morgan was easy to work with for my last-minute request to have someone check in on my dog! I got cute pictures of him on a walk and the house was accident-free when I got home!”
“Shelby was very respectful, kind and attentive! She was also very flexible with me which was so appreciated! She made sure to spend the full time with my kitty and gave her lots of attention! I received many update photos.”
“Jessica is very nice and knowledgeable about dog behavior so I knew my boys were in good hands. It's freezing cold at home, but I knew I could still rely on her. The pictures at every visit kept my mind at ease. This was my first experience with Rover and Jessica was outstanding! So glad they got to stay home rather than some dumb kennel.”
About: I have grown up having various pets, but mostly dogs my entire life. I have a love for all types of dogs and pets in general. I have a dog that I have raised since he was a puppy. I have trained him to do multiple tricks and to obley not only me, but anyone who tells him a command. I have dog sat for many friends and family members when they have been away. I do mot have a lot or Rover experice, but the dogs that i have met through here have made a lasting impression on me and I cannot wait to meet more! I currently have a home with three small dogs that get along great with others. Myvprefrace would be going on walks with dogs after work .
“If I could give Kadyn 10 out of 5 stars, I would. Not only did she come to our rescue when our other sitter unexpectedly (and quite unceremoniously, I should add) canceled our pet-sitting while my husband and I were across the ocean, but she also consistently went above and beyond. I sent her all the materials I had sent the other sitter and tried to be as available as possible, but she honestly didn't really need me. She took such amazing care of our two kitties and sent even better pictures and updates. If you're able to book her, absolutely do. Impeccable isn't praise enough.”
“Keesha was so amazing! She checked in and gave a detailed update everyday. She even bought greg a new toy to play with <3 she met with me prior to meet greg and i could tell from her questions that she genuinely wanted to provide quality care for greg and im so thankful for that. she’s the best!!”
“Sophia loves her new friend. Laurie has been excellent in taking care of my fur baby. She has been awesome helping me out on short notice also. Thank you so much Laurie!”
About: I have the most experience caring for dogs and cats. Growing up, I always had pet dogs. Once I was finally on my own, I got my first cat and fully embraced the “cat lady” stereotype. I now have two other cats and one of them I raised from 4 weeks old. I therefore feel very experienced with bottle baby kittens. I am a full-time teacher so unless we are on a break, I am available during the week after 3pm. I don’t have any work commitments on weekends. I would follow whatever instructions you left for me regarding your pet. If I were to have any questions, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to you.
“Mya was great! She took on a last minute booking and it couldn't have gone more smoothly. Jax and Ruby seemed to like her and Peach actually came out of hiding when Mya was there! I would 10/10 recommend Mya for any pet needs!!!”
“Ariana was wonderful with Holly! She was sweet, communicative, and kept me updated throughout the drop-ins. I felt comfortable knowing Holly was in good hands and would book with Ariana again.”

“Jasmine took such great care of our kitty! She was quick to respond when I reached out last minute about drop in visits and she arranged to meet our cat promptly. She was extremely sweet and kind when she came to our house and we can tell our cat enjoyed her visits! She sent detailed notes and lots of pictures of our cat while we were out of town and she even offered to water my plant! We will definitely ask Jasmine for help the next time we go out of town!”

Theresa is a gem! She has watched over our cat twice now. Could not ask for a better person and caretaker for our cat. Plus, she takes care of us, the mom and dad, just as well with detailed daily messages and pictures. Theresa does everything she commits to and more. We've taken our dogs with us lately, but in the future for short trips we will definitely ask Theresa to help with our dogs as well. We are so fortunate to have been connected with Theresa. We've returned from our trip today, and our cat (nicknamed Mr. Handsome thanks to Theresa) is doing fabulously! He's received fresh water, medicine, food, treats, playtime, a clean litter box daily, and most of all, love while we were gone.
I'm so grateful to have found Rafaela. She does a great job looking in on my two cats when I'm out of town. She is gentle and intuitive with cats and my anxious pair interact with her easily. She's also very kind and easy to communicate with. I definitely recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in North Kansas City on Rover is $12.21 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,679 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Kansas City. On Rover:
- 93% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
