“Shelby is one of the most kindest caregivers I have ever met. She is super communicative and always eases my mind when I worry. I will most definitely book with her again if I ever need. She is compassionate and kind for all furry friends. Shelby will always be my first pick!! She should be yours too. Thank you from the dearest of my heart for taking such sweet care of my minmin.”
“I had an amazing experience with Natalia for a two-week stay while I was away. She took care of my three dogs, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in a good hands.”
“I could tell my pup was well taken care during her time with Donald & Affton. If possible they will be the ones I’ll have her start with every time I need Rover!”
“Bailey and her family were so great! They took such great care of our fur baby and was great about sending pictures and videos! I can also tell she took some time brushing her. She’s a Husky and shedding like crazy. Kimber had a blast making new dog friends and new human friends! We will be using Bailey and her family going forward when we are out of town! Thank you for taking care of our Kimber and being so good to her!”
“Sheila is extremely kind, professional, and loving to animals. She went absolutely above and beyond caring for my very rambunctious puppy and I was touched to see how much she cared. She is an excellent communicator and I hope I have the privilege of working with her and her family again’”
“Gina was the perfect host for our fur babies, Bentley 11 1/2yr Golden and Milo 8 month Golden. We are not accustomed to leaving them with others and were very comfortable with Ginas level of love patience and understanding towards the boys. Her communication was amazing with cute little videos and pics. When the need arises Gina will be our first go to.”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with Elizabeth but it won’t be the last. She was great!! She sent lots of pictures and daily updates, and I could tell our dog was happy and comfortable with her. He was excited to see us at pick up, but he didn’t come home with the normal anxiety he usually shows after staying with a sitter. That told me everything I needed to know. So glad to have found her and she will be our #1 choice from now on.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. During my time in college, I worked for a humane society and have extensive knowledge on how to care and play with many different temperaments. My most recent beloved cat, Mufasa, was diabetic, which has help me puuurfect my skills of administrating shots and taking care of ill kitties. I have a full time job from 9-5 on M-F, but my weekends and evenings are free to give all the love and care to your furbaby. I live in an apartment complex that allows all breeds. There is plenty of space outside to play with your dog, and many walking trails and parks nearby. There is also a dog park close by.
“Susan was AMAZING with Annie! I was so worried about leaving her, because we have really never left her. The minute that we met Susan, I knew that we were in great hands! She has such a calm and loving demeanor! She communicated daily with pictures and updates and gave Annie all kinds of love while we were gone. I am definitely going to rebook! I could not recommend her more (and I am very picky when it comes to my dog)!”

“We are so happy that we found Zachary and Emily. They treated our two dogs (Luna & Polo) like family! They played with our dogs and provided activities, and I could see from the pictures that they were very happy to be with Zachary and Emily. We received regular photo updates and were kept informed about his activities each day. Luna & Polo clearly enjoyed their time with them, and we felt very confident in their care. I will book with them again. Thank you, Zachary and Emily, we really appreciate your care for our dogs.”
About: I’ve always loved caring for animals and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’m experienced with keeping pets on their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand how important it is to feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I’m happy to care for pets before and after work and on weekends. I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of each pet and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m dependable and will always communicate clearly about my availability so you know your pet is getting the care they need. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I provide a clean, comfortable environment with plenty of attention and supervision. I also understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel right at home. When caring for a pet in their home, I’m respectful of their space and will follow their usual routine and your instructions closely.
“Lyndsey is the absolute BEST! She watched my two dogs for three weeks while I went to Europe and they got the best care ever from her. She regularly kept me updated and I had such a peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands with Lyndsey, and they loved playing with her dog Indy. I will definitely keep using Lyndsey in the future!”
About: Hello, I love dogs and I’d love to take care of your loved pets and provide excellent care. I will be providing multiple updates through out the stay and as many pictures as needed. I have a total of 15 year experience with dogs. I have a German Shepherd of my own who is extremely friendly. The services I provide are the following: drop-in visits, walking of your dog/s, and boarding. Let me know if you have questions or concerns. I am always open to a meet and greet as well. The objective is to make you and your dogs as comfortable as possible before moving forward. Thank you! Lupe
About: Well, I currently have 4 dogs at home, so I figured why not add to the fun and let others stay over from time to time. If requesting to have your dogs stay here, they’ll need to be okay with other dogs. When it comes to me coming over to your house, I’m pretty flexible. I have a wife and kid that can always hang back at home with our fur balls. On the drop ins and walks, I cover a good chunk of the Kansas side for work, so I’m always out and about. I’ve had dogs most of my life so I always enjoy interacting with them. I’m comfortable with all breeds and all sizes so don’t hesitate to reach out to me to help take care of your pups.
“Melanie is a wonderful sitter. She and her husband have watched my dog a number of times for several days at a time. They are home quite a bit and my dog gets along with their dogs, so I feel like she’s right at home with them. She is always clean and happy the way I left her. Melanie is always super responsive with texting and flexible with me on drop off and pick up times. Can’t ask for anything more from a petsitter.”

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
98% of sitters in Osawatomie can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Osawatomie home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Osawatomie.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Osawatomie. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
You and your Osawatomie sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in KS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
