About: Many years experience fostering dogs and caring for many types of animals. I’m home for the summer studying for the CPA exams and will enjoy much needed breaks to love on and care for your pets. Currently studying for the CPA exams at home so I can plan my day around the needs of your loved ones. I am available daily. I follow strict timing for medication schedules for your pets recovery and peace of mind. I ensure all hazardous items are secured and out of reach.
“We rebooked Jenny for in-house visits for our cat after a great experience the first time. We got loads of pictures and she's amazing with our cat - be it snuggling or feeding or playtime!”
“Tyrese has been incredible to work with! He is responsible, communicative, and kind. He has been taking great care of my dog and clearly has love and compassion for animals. We will definitely continue booking with him!”
About: What sets me apart is the love, patience, and real-life experience I bring as a pet parent to four amazing pets of my own: my cats Arcoiris and Benni, and my dogs Quico and Tina. I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I take the time to make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I have hands-on experience caring for pets with additional needs. When my cat Arcoiris was a kitten, he required both topical and oral medications for the first five months of his life, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and gentle care. I also have experience with puppies through raising Quico and Tina, so I know the time, structure, and attention younger pets need as they learn and grow. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding routines, fresh litter boxes, medication support, or extra cuddles, I will treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and my goal is to give you peace of mind while making your pets feel like family. I am available Monday - Thursday after 4pm and Friday - Sunday all day for dog walking, drop in visits and housesitting. This is my part-time job. I have a partner who takes care of our pets while I’m taking care of yours. We provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for all pets that stay with us. We live in a spacious home with plenty of room for dogs to relax, play, and feel at ease. Our large, fully fenced backyard is perfect for supervised outdoor time, whether it’s for play, potty breaks, or just soaking up the sun. We have two friendly dogs and two laid-back cats who are used to being around other animals. We always introduce pets slowly and carefully to ensure everyone gets along and feels safe. We maintain a calm, structured routine with regular feedings, potty breaks, play sessions, and quiet time. We also make sure to follow any specific care instructions you provide, so your pet's routine stays consistent.
“Matthew did a great job!! My cat had some stomach issues due to stress, and he helped clean the mess and let me know it would need some later care as well. Thank you so much Matthew!”
About: I have dedicated my entire life to canine care. My expertise spans across all life stages, from puppies to senior dogs, and encompasses a wide range of breeds, demonstrating my proficiency in providing comprehensive and personalized pet care. I currently operate remotely, which affords me a flexible schedule. I am generally available during most morning and afternoon hours. This includes both the work week and the weekend. While I do not provide pet care services at my residence, I am available to visit clients' homes to walk dogs and facilitate their access to outdoor areas for their needs.
“Christina is fantastic! We will continue to use her to take care of our little one because she was so good at communicating with us and letting us know how things were going.”
About: I’ve worked in the veterinary fields for a couple of years as a veterinary technician, I have gotten a lot of experience about animal behavior and will advocate for them. I am currently going back to continue my education, my school is based online which will give me the opportunity to be more open with my schedules. Throughout the years I’ve worked with dogs, aggressive dogs and cats I have focused on learning the body language and behaviors of our pet. Which I implemented my learning to any animal I see by not pushing their boundaries or making them uncomfortable, making sure pets feel safe around me. With my veterinary education I have been able to help clients who need to provide insulin injections to their pets as well as nail trims and anal gland issues.
“Highly recommend! We got great communication and felt like our dog was very well taken care of, which is all a pet owner wants when they are out of town!”
“Gordon was awesome! Our 8-year old Pyrenees, Nala, who is good aggressive and has never been left with non-family members. Gordon made it manageable. He even dropped back by an extra time (after Nala caught and ate an adult squirrel) to take her out for an extra poo. Gordon’s pictures and funny comments gave us peace of mind during our son’s wedding in Texas.”
“Thank you for checking in on our cats, Kato and Gypsys, and feeding them daily while we were away. We really appreciate all the pictures and updates we received. Additionally, you went above and beyond by even cleaning out the cat litter and other tasks we didn’t even request. We have other trips planned this year and will definitely be inquiring with you first to watch Kato and Gypsy if you are available. Thank you very much, Kelly!”
“Lori took great care of our boys while we were gone fishing for several days. We enjoyed the updates and photos from each visit. The 2 visits prior to our trip helped with communication, and we think the dogs remembered meeting her too!”
“Veda is amazing!! She took great care of our 2 dogs and cat while we were out of town for a week. Great at updating us with each visit. She also brought our packages in off the porch. Also left the animals some treats!!! So sweet!! Came home to happy animals. Thank you so much Veda!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for friends and family for years, including up to three at a time! Every workday, I get to play doggy daycare for my sister’s Australian Cattle Doodle. We go on walks, play, and sometimes work on her training, which has taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and making learning fun. I’m just as comfortable with cats! I have one of my own and have cared for everything from adult cats to a mama cat and her entire litter. I genuinely love animals of all kinds and would love the chance to spend time with yours. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet, so I’ll make sure they’re getting plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away. I’m also the type of pet parent who’s constantly taking pictures and videos of my own baby, so I know you’d probably love updates too! You can expect lots of photos and videos of your happy, spoiled pets so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work from home Monday through Friday, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the day. As long as I can plan around my scheduled meetings, I’m able to accommodate most weekday visits, walks, and drop-ins. I’m also available on weekends, so I can provide care whenever you need it. I enjoy getting out for walks, sticking to your pet’s routine, and making sure they get plenty of attention and love while you’re away. At this time, I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding, medications (if needed), or just plenty of cuddles and companionship. I know every pet is different, so I always do my best to match their routine and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I also love sending photo and video updates, so you’ll always know how your furry family member is doing!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Olathe
Deanna took wonderful care of our dog and two cats while we were away. She stayed on top of our pets’ medications, gave each of our animals plenty of love and attention, and even picked up after our dog in the backyard. She was incredibly attentive and kept us informed throughout our trip, even notifying us about an issue at our house so we could address it quickly. What really stood out was how much she genuinely cared about our pets. During the Fourth of July fireworks, she went out of her way to make sure our dog felt safe and comfortable, always putting his needs first. She was consistently on time, communicated clearly, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were gone. I would absolutely trust Deanna with our pets again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and thoughtful pet sitter!
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!
Elisha was phenomenal in taking care of my baby. She sent updates, pictures, and action shots. I was never nervous about him the whole week I was gone. She was that great at updating. This is the first time I have let a stranger watch my dog so I was extremely nervous leaving, but her updates put my mind at ease. We did a meet and greet/run through of care before I left. Booster (my dog) interviewed her and gave the signal she would be a good fit to care for him. She followed instructions well and gave exceptional care. I couldn’t recommend her more!!
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!
Our first experience with Rover was a breeze thanks to Lindsey. We loved getting pictures and a recap of how our dog, Lily, was doing while we were away. Lily is a busy girl and Lindsey provided lots of activities for her at each check in. Highly recommend Lindsey!
Elizabeth provided excellent care for our two dogs. She was very caring and spent time with them to make the dogs feel loved. She played with them each time and took them on walks. When we need dog care again, I will contact Elizabeth because I know my dogs will be well cared for.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Olathe stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.

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.
