“My big dog can be a little temperamental with new people but he took to Kylie right away. She knew exactly how to greet and flow with him, her background as a vet tech is also a solid plus. Very professional, very nice.”

“Ari is great! She was kind, communicative, punctual, and took excellent care of my pups. She is obviously a natural with dogs. We even had a broken collar situation while I was at work and she found the harnesses and made the walk happen. I highly suggest hiring her to care for your animals. Thank you, Ari!”

“Debbie fills in when we ate not able to take Layla on her walks due to work or traveling. Layla does not like people but does know that Debbie takes her on her favorite activity. She is so good with our cranky old lady doggo! 💕”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with an orange tabby cat who taught me the basics of daily pet care from a young age. In high school, my family adopted a snorkie, and I’ve helped care for him for the past 12 years—everything from daily walks and playtime to grooming and giving medications. I’ve also had my own cat for the past seven years, and through his renal issues I’ve become very familiar with the early signs of urinary blockages, bladder stones, and the importance of special diet management. Because of this, I’m extremely attentive to subtle behavior changes and comfortable supporting pets with chronic or sensitive medical needs. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I am a medical student who spends several hours a day studying, making my schedule perfect for house sitting and using study breaks to take dogs on walks. I have class every week day from 8-12 so I can do anytime after that. Unfortunately, I am unable to do Thursdays due to long lecture and lab times. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like my own. I’m really big on keeping things safe, calm, and consistent so your pet can settle in and feel comfortable. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and any little changes—especially since I’m used to managing my own cat’s medical needs. I’m super reliable and I always follow instructions exactly how you give them. You’ll get plenty of updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Whether it’s sticking to a schedule, handling special diets, or just giving them extra love and attention, I make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well-cared for the entire time.
“Jennifer was an excellent dog walker for our beloved husky, Milo. She showed up on time, walked him the agreed amount of time, and sent us report cards and photos of her walks. I would not hesitate to hire her again and highly recommend her services.”
About: Hi! My name is Katie and I have been around animals my entire life. Growing up, we always had cats in the house and when I was 12, I got my first dog. When I was little, I ran a small pet sitting service in my neighborhood and had so much fun taking care of dogs and cats of all sizes. I recently moved to Wichita to attend Wichita State University but I try to visit my furbabies at home as much as possible. My roommate, Jimme, and I love animals and spend as much time with them as we can, whether it's visiting pets we know, spending an afternoon in pet shops, or volunteering for various animal organizations. We are both active people and love going on long walks through our neighborhood. I am a very responsible, attentive sitter and treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. One of my favorite things to do when caring for a pet is to take lots of pictures! You can be sure that I will keep you updated on all the activities we do so you never have to worry about your pet while you are away. You can expect your dog to be spoiled with treats, cuddles, and lots of playtime while visiting! I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I often work remotely here in Wichita, so I am available to care for your pet all day! I am extremely flexible and can usually modify repeat bookings as requested. One of the first things I like to do with the pets in my care is gain their trust by feeding and playing with them. Then, we go on walks around the neighborhood to get some exercise and explore. Dogs are usually ready for a treat and a nap when we get back home so I let them relax before we do it all again!
About: I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog lover with a calm home environment, perfect for pups who are friendly, well-mannered, and crate-trained. I also have a resident dog and cat, so I prefer guests who are respectful of other dogs’ space and social cues. I enjoy going for walks and providing enrichment, but I’m best suited for dogs who are leash-trained and not overly high energy. Please feel free to message me first so we can see if it’s a good fit! I work full time as a middle school teacher, so I have a very caring heart. I’m available after 3pm most days and anytime on the weekends and during summer (May 25th-August1st). I love walking my dogs and would love to walk yours too. I can work on leash training with your dog, as well as the basics. I can drop in and visit your dog or cat, walk them, feed them, and keep them company for a little while. I make sure that animals are never left unsupervised. If I’m not home, animals will be kept separate. Anything you need when it comes to walks and visits, I’m your gal!
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life! I love being around dogs and giving them the best life they deserve! I will go above and beyond taking care of your furry friends! Per care would fit perfectly into my late afternoon, going into the evenings. I am a teacher and so summer is fast approaching, opening up my schedule to a full day! I keep a safe, clean, and pet friendly environment at all times. I make sure pets have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention while following any feeding schedules or care instructions left by the owner. I also monitor pets closely during walks and interactions to ensure their safety, comfort, and well-being in the clients home.
About: I have spent my whole life surrounded by cats and dogs, both my own and others and have an intense passion for caring for animals the right way! I have basic care skills, but can ensure diligence, active and engaging time spent with your animals, timely care, and commitment to following care guidelines to a T. I know what it’s like to leave your animals in the care of someone else. My personal pet sitters are accustomed to abnormally and intensely detailed printed guidelines with care instructions for my animals, so regardless of how detailed your care instructions are, I have the aptitude to follow them in their entirety plus more to the best of my abilities! I am a medical student in my first year, so I do have the ability to have more control of my schedule. I will continually update my time availability to be accurate weekly. I will not commit something that I cannot guarantee availability for! I will only be able to give care in your home due to living in an apartment complex and having animals of my own. But in caring for my own animals, I am quite neurotic in how detailed and specifically I care for them. I make sure my animals have daily mental and exercise stimulation through playing with toys, walking, and engagement with me and each other. I am adamant about giving my animals affection, and provide them meals in a timely and measured way. I brush all of my animals teeth daily, walk my dogs daily, and clean my cats litter box at least twice a day. I am very attuned to subtleties and changes in my animals behavior to ensure that they are in good health! I want to give my animals the best life and care possible just as I will do for your animals!

About: My pets are the most important thing in my life and I would like to take care of your fur babies the same way I do mine. I am able to check in on your pets during the day as well as take them on long walks. I have cared for both cats and dogs for my entire life and currently have two of my own cats and a dog. If your dog likes to socialize I am also able to bring along my own pup on walks or for playdates at the dog park. I also able to let your dogs outside during the day when you are busy working so you can have peace of mind. I am comfortable with all sizes and ages of dogs.

North Riverside dog parents share their Rover experiences
I absolutely recommend Veronica. I first hear about her from a friend that used her. Reached out to her very last minute and she was so accommodating to fit me in. She took so many photos of my pup and I’m loved seeing my pup enjoy her time with Veronica. I will definitely be rebooking with her!

Ari is great! She was kind, communicative, punctual, and took excellent care of my pups. She is obviously a natural with dogs. We even had a broken collar situation while I was at work and she found the harnesses and made the walk happen. I highly suggest hiring her to care for your animals. Thank you, Ari!
