1. Noelle D.

“Noelle took great care of our kitty while we were out of town for a few days. Our cat is normally very shy but befriended Noelle quickly. While we were gone, he made a mess in my plants which she helped take care of too.”


2. Taryn T.

“Taryn was fantastic! She showed up right on time, let our dogs out, and spent a full half-hour playing with them. Communication was quick and easy, and I really appreciated the picture updates—it gave me peace of mind knowing my pups were happy and well cared for. I would absolutely book her again!”


3. Taylor Z.


“Taylor was amazing and took such good care of our 2 cats while the family took off. Communication was great and she was a life saver by extending their care for an extra day. I will definetly rebook!”


4. Nicole D.

“Nicole is awesome. I felt very confident my cats were being cared for after the introduction (Henry did contemplate launching at her and she was ok with it) and the report cards. She also got some good pics of my babies.”




5. Ron T.


“Ron took great care of our dogs over a five day period during a busy holiday season. His drop-in visits occurred in the schedule we had requested, and he managed the daily walks we had asked for in addition to the regular feeding, watering, and backyard visits. With all the real-time notices of his visits, and we were able to relax and enjoy our trip. Great experience!”


6. Marinda M.

“This was my first time to use Rover and I had such a great experience with Marinda! She watched my cat while I was away for a few days and she kept me updated with photos and videos on each visit. I recently changed my cats food and he has been iffy with it, but Marinda gave me peace of mind letting me know how he was eating with each drop-in visit. She kept the litter box clean, vacuumed up messy litter, and even washed a few dishes! I could tell my cat Buzz loved playing with her based on the videos she sent. She was always quick to respond and thorough in her updates. I will definitely use her services again and I highly recommend her for your pet!”


7. Jessica M.

“I am so confident in Jessica's abilities to help and take care of my puppy when I am away at work! I look forward to our training sessions together! She is great with communication and even better with my pup!”


8. Samuel R.
“Sam is a special friend to people and dogs alike! He maintains a routine that will keep your pet on track and you in the loop while they are in his care. Sam is one of the only people I trust with my pets because I know he makes them feel right at home and loved in a situation that might otherwise stress them out. His commitment to providing a happy life for his own dog will translate to your pet’s experience. You (and your dog!) will love working with Sam!”


9. Taylor S.

“I’m so happy I found Taylor! She’s so great with my dog, Stella. I trust her with a key to my house and my dog. Taylor is friendly, reliable, and trustworthy! You won’t regret having her watch your fur baby!”


10. Erin L.

“My cat had a wonderful time from Erin's visits while I was on a trip. Erin made sure all of his needs were met each day, and treated him to great play and birdwatching sessions!”


11. Caitlin M.

“Caitlin was awesome with our giant lap dogs! We typically book drop in visits and have had others just let them outside by themselves, but she took the time to sit and play fetch with them during her visit. She even brought our packages in if we had any. We would highly highly recommend!”


12. Vanessa R.


“Vanessa was wonderful with our 2 frenchies! She sent updates on their bathroom schedule and photos and even cleaned up our puppy's crate and play area! She was very reliable, respectful and responsible!”


13. Cassandra T.

“Cassie was so reliable and great at communicating. She took great care of our dog while we were at work and would recommend her to anyone!”


14. Anna C.

“Anna did a great job of sharing pics so I knew my dogs were okay, and she did her best to accommodate my very skittish dog who is terrified of visitors.”


15. Clove L.

“Clove is great! Mo is pretty shy and usually doesn’t let people pet her, but she loved Clove and was very comfortable! Will definitely book Clove for future drop-ins.”


16. Taylor L.

“Taylor messaged and sent pictures from each visit. She kept us informed on how the dogs were doing and we were able to enjoy our short vacay knowing they were in good hands. Thanks!”


17. Carmen & Katie C.
“Carmen is definitely an animal lover! Funny thing is I think she prefers animals over humans! I would totally trust her with my animals! Great choice!”


18. Arrica W.

About: Ive gained my experience working with dogs of all size from my previous jobs, I've worked for Dog pawz(westport) and Noah's ark animal clinic as kennel attendants, as well as Woof's Stay and Play as a bath tech and pack leader The Pack leaders and Kennel Attendant's duty is to walk the pets,feed and clean up their kennel area as well as giving medication when required. I've also taken care of other pets outside of work when mom/dad are away or when they are just too busy to take their dogs for walks.Also I am interested in becoming a groomer and what better way to expand my knowledge on dogs than to work with them! The more experience the better! Currently, I am working at a new doggy daycare in Leawood and I'm usually surrounded by in average 60-100+dogs. A typical day for you pet will look like a whole lot of loving and play time with toys and long walks if the weather permits. I really love animals and just being around them brings me such joy and excitement. Im self employed so I'm pretty flexilbe for drop-ins and daily walks. Im avaible for drop-ins and walks from 8a.m.-4p.m and 7:30p.m-10p.m, but again I'm flexible. Whatever the client needs for their pet to be comfortable and whatever makes them comfortable having me in their home. I will clean up messes, take pet for daily walks, provide playtime, feed, medicate etc.


19. Kayla J.

“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.”


20. Sophia P.

“Sophia was very attentive to Molly the whole time and took great care of our home. She was responsive to any requests we had and took her role seriously. We returned to clean home and happy kitty!”
