“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 am a third year veterinary student in KC for the summer at an internship! I have worked as a Veterinary Assistant for 6 years now and have gained experience in handling and working with all breeds and sizes of dogs, as well as cats. I have also been petsitting for family friends for 5 years and have plenty of experience making pets feels comfortable while their owner is away. I am comfortable handling any dog or cat, with anything from giving medications to your senior pup to walks and exercise for the more energetic ones! I’m currently working full-time during the week with some evening hours available. I am also typically available all day during the weekend and on most holidays. As I am currently renting, I am not able to care for pets in my own home. However, I am more than willing to travel and take care of your fur-baby in the comfort of their own home! I have been trained on how to handle all types of animals with care and respect towards them, and would feel comfortable assisting with any training you are working with them on. Most of all, I absolutely love to hang out with any animal and would be honored to care for your fur baby!
“Carmen and Katie were amazing! They were always on time and sent us lots of (happy) pictures of our furbaby. Ping-Pong is elderly and needs meds twice a day. All meds were dispensed as directed and cuddles were given liberally. We will use them again and I highly recommend them! I guarantee you and your furbabies will not be disappointed!”
“Fantastic job and super helpful!”
“Taylor was a great communicator, flexible with her schedule, and patient with my shy pup! She also sent updates and pictures of my dog which was great to see! Couldn’t recommend her more for anyone needing a rover”
“Olesya did such a wonderful job with my kit cat Jackie while I was on a week long vacation! Jackie is usually pretty skittish around new people but took to Olesya right away! I would definitely recommend her to care for your pets!”
“Thanks so much for taking such good care of everybody! All three pets were very comfortable with her, I loved getting photos while I was gone, and I so appreciate the attention to detail.”
“I was very nervous to leave my boys for the first time while also being first time I've had to book a sitter. Claudia made sure to send me pictures with every visit while updating me on any shenanigans my boys caused. She eased my anxiety and allowed me to enjoy my vacation. Will definitely request Claudia again!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. caring for them has always come naturally. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like they were my own. Most recently I had a sweet pitbull mix, Lilo, who sadly passed in January after 11 years together. Using Rover is my way of staying connected to the joy animals bring while soothing the heartache of not currently having one of my own. I’m attentive, gentle, and genuinely love bonding with every pet I meet. I work Monday-Friday 8am-4pm. I am available to walk, play, feed and care for your pets outside of those times! My weekends are completely free! I am not able to care for your pets in my own home, as I live in a rental property. However I will treat your home with the upmost respect, and care for your space and pet as if they are my own! Please let me know if your pets aren’t allowed on any furniture!!
