About: I’ve had years of experience with dogs and cats. Growing up in a rural small town we always had animals. I have a huge love for all animals and would be happy to take care of yours! I am currently a stay at home mom of a child with special needs. Who goes to school full time so I have all of the day to help take care of your pets needs. I have a fenced in backyard to keep my dogs safe. I also have crates in the house that my dogs like to be in from time to time to feel safe and when we are gone from the home.
“Hope was absolutely amazing! This was the first time I knew my dogs were comfortable and well taken care of when we were on vacation. Hope is very knowledgable and great with communication. She truly cared about my dogs and for that I cannot thank her enough!”
“Piper was super attentive and spent a lot of time getting to know Finn we really appreciate her! And we will definitely use her again She was also really super communicating with me.”
About: I grew up with many dogs and many, many various animals. My father was a veterinarian so you name the animal, we likely had it as a pet at one time. I often spent my free time at my dad’s clinic working as a vet tech or cleaning out kennels. I’ve always had at least one dog at a time and am my happiest when surrounded by man’s best friend. I recently had to help my senior dog, 20 years old, cross the rainbow bridge and I would love to welcome all the senior pups to my house. I have a very large, securely fenced back yard. I also have an 10 year old puppy who has never met a stranger, including his fellow four legged companions. During the week, I work out of the home but can come home during lunch to let dogs out. I am a single mom who is home most evenings and weekends, outside of my kids sports. I have a large fenced yard and one extremely friendly small dog. I have a split level home so larger dogs with ambulation issues may struggle in my home.
“Lori is a fantastic dog sitter! My dog fell in love with her at our meet and greet. Lori took great care of my dog. She checked on Lexi twice a day and gave my dog a lot of petting and attention. I will book her services again in the future.”
“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.”
“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!”
“We are so thankful for Elizabeth looking after our cats. They were all happy, healthy, and playful when we got home. Elizabeth sent the best pictures every day, along with how each of them were doing. She played with them every day, and they were just such happy cats when we got home! Such a relief to know your cats are getting wonderful care while you are away. Our cats will be so happy to see her again for the next trip, they got really attached to her!”

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 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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Olathe on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,875 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Olathe. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Olathe. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
