“Mandy is amazing. We love having her watch our dog and now cat too. I always know my dog will be comfortable with her and she has a special way of being with animals. Every time we go somewhere we always try to book with Mandy!”
“Lindsey was AMAZING! She gave constant updates that were each at least a paragraph long each drop in. She was so patient with our reactive dog and made sure everyone felt comfortable. She also stepped in at the last minute when we had to suddenly change travel plans and immediately said yes when we asked her to watch him an extra day. We will definitely be coming back to her whenever we need someone to watch jolt. ❤️”
“Davina watched our 3 kitties while we were gone for two weeks. She’s very attentive, an excellent communicator and took the time to give the kitties much needed attention while we were away. She’s very conscientious and reliable. Every visit was accompanied by pictures of all three of our cats - even the one who hid from her the entire time! I have no problem recommending her to anyone. We are already making arrangements to have her watch them again in a month. Feel confident to use her without any reservations.”
“Sarah & Cyrus J were our first rover experience we have used and they did a phenomenal job. They were extremely flexible and went above and beyond caring for our two large dogs. We had booked two visits per day for 5 days over the thanksgiving holiday. They swept and cleaned up after our boys with whatever dirt and leaves they brought in from outside. We will be using them again in the future! And highly recommend them to anyone looking to book with them!”
“Kaysee watched our two English bulldogs during our wedding and was there for three separate drop ins. The boys were well cared for and we will definitely use her again!”
“Hope was amazing with our senior cat! She took time to get to know him and played with him during her visits. She was also able to give him his medication without issue. She was excellent with her communication and gave wonderful updates with pictures! We will be asking Hope to pet sit again in the near future.”
“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!”
About: Hi I’m Ellie and I’m 22 years old! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly believe they are one of life’s greatest gifts. Growing up, my family had six dogs, mostly large breeds, along with a couple of smaller dogs so I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I currently have two Black Labs, ages 3 and 5, who keep me active and remind me every day how important exercise, attention, and love are for a dog’s well-being. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved!!! My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. (: (I am unavailable Monday, Wednesday and Fridays from 7 am- 2pm due to school). I strive to be as flexible as possible and am happy to work with your schedule. I currently work as a server, so my weekday hours can vary, but I am often able to adjust my schedule when needed. I am available for early morning visits starting around 8:00 AM, as well as afternoon and early evening visits. If you have specific scheduling needs, feel free to reach out! I will always do my best to accommodate you and ensure your pet receives the care and attention they deserve. I am not offering pet care in my own home. However, I am available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking in my clients’ homes. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both their pets and their home with the utmost respect. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s normal routine, so I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. I also make sure your home is kept clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. Having owned dogs my entire life, I know that pets thrive when they feel comfortable and cared for. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for your pets while giving you peace of mind when you’re away
“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.”
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!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for neighbors, family, and friends since I was about six years old. My experience includes walking, feeding, playing, and keeping pets on their usual routines while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including older dogs that need a slower pace. I also have experience with cats and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I focus on being dependable, attentive, and making sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. I am unable to come for pets in my own home but am more than comfortable coming to yours. I am very mindful of peoples spaces and always try to keep the home in the same condition I left it. Before caring for your pet, I’d like to know as much as I can about them! Tell me their favorite toys and games, things they dislike (walks on leashes, paws being touched, etc.), silly quirks they may have, medication details and administration, fears or triggers they have and what to do if these arise, and any unconventional behaviors or references you guys may have. I also want to hear what you love about your pet. What are some ways I can care for them while making sure they are still getting the love and comfort they get from you? I am a full-time online grad student. I am working part time in the area and my schedule is very consistent and not flexible. I work Tuesday-Saturday 11:30am-4:30pm. Please make sure this works with your pets schedule before reaching out. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in my client’s home. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I always supervise pets during walks and playtime. I keep environments clean, calm, and low-stress, and I’m careful to notice any changes in behavior or health. I treat every home with respect and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“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.”
“Morgan has cared for my crew a few times now & I so appreciate her. She is reliable, easy to communicate with, and I know I can count on her. She is very sweet with them & they are happy to see her. It makes leaving them so much easier. Thank you Morgan!”
“Lori is timely, dependable, trustworthy and caring. Our small senior dog is in declining health and has limited vision. He has become very anxious. Lori was patient and kind even when he was grumpy. She communicated right after each visit. She monitored his food and water intake and administered meds. I would definitely have Lori as a care provider again.”
“Steve did a great job for me! He left everything sparkling clean and tidy in the cat area. He kept me informed each day and had great communication. I really appreciated his going the extra mile for me!”
About: Hi, I’m Tylar! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a multi-pet home, so I’m completely in my element whether I’m hanging out with high-energy pups, extra-large breeds, or independent cats. I treat every pet like family and strive to give owners total peace of mind while they’re away from home. Whether your dog needs an early morning walk to beat the heat, a midday energy release, or a quick potty break, I tailor every visit to your pet’s routine. I am also super comfortable with cats—making sure food, fresh water, litter boxes, and play/cuddle time are all checked off. Flexible Scheduling: Early morning walks, midday check-ins, and flexible drop-in times. Same-Day & Short-Notice Friendly: Open to last-minute requests when unexpected plans or longer work shifts pop up. Consistent Routine Care: Available for daily recurring dog walks or multi-day vacation drop-in schedules. I treat every dog and cat in my care with the exact same love, hyper-vigilance, and safety-first mindset that I give my own animals at home. Your pet’s physical safety and emotional comfort are always my highest priorities. Safety & Security First: Leashes and harnesses are double-checked before stepping outside, doors and gates are strictly secured, and I stay fully aware of our surroundings during walks to avoid aggressive dogs or hot pavement. Respecting Your Environment: I leave your home exactly as I found it—securing doors, locking up properly, and ensuring your pet is happy, hydrated, and settled before I leave. Open & Honest Communication: You’ll receive real-time updates and photos during every visit so you never have to wonder how your family member is doing.
About: I am the biggest dog lover. I’ve always took care of my neighbors, friends and families fur babies while they're at work or out of town. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’ve built my schedule around making sure the dogs in my care get plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. From morning potty breaks, lunch potty breaks and playtime in the afternoon walks and evening wind-downs, every part of my day includes time dedicated to their well-being. I’m always available to monitor and care for them, making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and dog-friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at ease. I have a secure space for plenty of cozy spots for naps and downtime. I stick to each dog’s routine as closely as possible whether that’s specific feeding times, medication, walks, or crate time to make their stay stress-free and familiar.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Olathe
Kim was fantastic! We were in need of a drop-in visit for our anxious boy Roscoe. To Kim’s credit, she has never met our dog, and with the thunderstorms that popped up, Roscoe was I’m sure very anxious. Kim was able to provide him comfort during her visit. We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. Thank you Kim.
"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!
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!

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 September 2026, there are 2,775 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.
