About: Hi my name is Tony Navarro, I look forward to watching your furry family member(s). I have been around dogs since I was a child and I currently have a golden doodle who loves to keep me busy with play time. I love dogs! I recently had 3 at the same time. I would love to extend my love to your pet. Please reach out if you have any questions. **Meet and greet is required for all services**
“Susan did an amazing job with our animals!!! She provided us with lots of pics and kept us informed of all the fun they were having while we were gone. We loved that they were able to stay in their own environment and had someone to cuddle with at night. 😊”
“Couldn’t be happier with Natalie! We really appreciated having Natalie keep Puck company on her two visits while we were gone. Sharing pics of her spending quality time with Puck was great!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life through family, friends, and my church community. I've had opportunities to care for dogs and help look after them when their families needed an extra hand, including dog-sitting. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I believe they all deserve patience, affection, and attentive care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and want pet parents to feel confident that their pups are in caring, responsible hands. I'm happy to follow your instructions closely to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I have a flexible schedule and enjoy making time to care for your furry family members! I balance pet care with my graduate studies, so I coordinate bookings around my academic commitments to ensure I can give each pup my full attention. I have availability throughout the week, including select daytime hours and evenings. Please reach out with your preferred dates and times, and we can find a schedule that works for both of us! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved pet. I take that responsibility seriously and will do my best to follow your instructions, respect your dog's routine, and keep you informed during visits. I believe in taking a patient, attentive approach and allowing each dog to feel comfortable at their own pace. During walks, I'll prioritize safe handling and remain mindful of our surroundings. My goal is to provide dependable, thoughtful care so you can have peace of mind while you're away!
“Roxanne is fabulous! When meeting Roxanne for the first time, Ollie took to her immediately. We knew he would be in good hands, and he was. She followed the instructions we left her perfectly and sent us photos during her drop-in with Ollie! Thank you, Roxanne, for taking such good care of him and allowing us to relax and enjoy our wedding day!”
“This was our first time having Claire do drop in visits for our dog, and she was awesome! She let us know when she arrived and sent pictures every day so we knew he was being well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Claire the next time we need a caregiver for our dog.”
About: I have worked at a vet, taken care of my own animals as well as family and friends. I have dealt with dogs and cats of all sizes. It will work with my job, get me exercise, and give me extra income I need. If I didn't have a weakness to blood, I would have been a veterinarian. I always make sure that they are exercised, played with, and taken to a park if necessary. I never hurt an animal but believe in discipline.
About: I have been around family pets my whole life. I especially love dogs of all breeds. I am ready to care for your fur-baby. I'm available for short term and long term needs even with short notice. I'm available by appointment to serve you as needed for your dogs. I can work evenings, daytimes and even over night care when you travel. I can come to you and care for your fur-baby in the comfort of their familiar surroundings. I'm also available to pick your dog up for appointments or walks at the dog park.

As I approach retirement from the Sheriff's 911 center I plan to travel internationally and need to experiment with ways to get my dog fix when back in the USA. So the next 2 yrs I will try adding this (dog sitting) into my very flexible work schedule and see if it will become part of Carter 2.0 I can say with confidence I can't handle most anything that arises. Recently retired from the Sheriff's 911 center. I have a very flexible schedule. I can adjust as needed to fit the needs of the stay. I am respectful and caring. I will work with you to ensure that your family members are as comfortable with me as possible. If a few introductory visits are needed I will be available.

Super helpful with our puppy Pepper on a busy day where we needed to coordinate multiple things. Tylar communicated very clearly and I felt very secure with her letting Pepper out and playing with her. We had some lovely photos of her playing in the yard and Tylar asked great questions. Definitely recommend!
Ellie truly treated my pups as her own! We booked her for two drop ins. She took them for a walk and kept them active! Most importantly, we had a weird request as my pup is currently in heat and needed more care than usual… Ellie took care of everything and more. I so appreciate her dedication to taking such good care of my babies ❤️
"I cannot recommend Ashli enough! They recently did a drop-in visit for my dog, Stormy, and the experience was fantastic. Ashli was punctual, followed all care instructions perfectly, and sent the most adorable photo updates that really put my mind at ease. It’s clear they have a genuine love for animals. I returned home to a very happy, relaxed pup. I will definitely be booking again!"
Ali was absolutely wonderful watching our dog for a few days. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for while we were away. Ali was attentive, reliable, and kept us updated with great communication throughout the entire stay. We could tell our dog was happy and comfortable with her. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
Olivia was great! Came over a few days before to meet the dogs and myself, which made me feel more comfortable! Both of my dogs loved her. She let both dogs out, played with them and sent me a bunch of photos afterwards! Highly recommend and will be using again!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Olathe is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Olathe 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 Olathe with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
