“Jasmine was great with my Kobe! This was my first time using Rover and based off of my first time I would highly recommend the services. Jasmine dropped in to feed my dog as scheduled and even had a little play time with him. I got regular updates along with pictures of Kobe as well. Will definitely book again! ⭐️”
“Kathleen came by for a meet and greet with our pup, Poe. She was timely and communicative. She was patient and kind to Poe as they got to know each other. I look forward to having her come by to take care of our dog.”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of growing up with all types of animals and learning at a young age the responsibility of caring for them. I started pet sitting when I was 15 and have been comfortable with all sizes of dogs, cats, and critters in between. I am comfortable administering medicine if needed and have had experience doing so with my own fur babies as well as the ones I have cared for. I also have experience and am comfortable with caring for animals with anxiety. I know that it can be challenging finding the right person to fit the needs/wants that your companion requires and I strive to provide the dedication, patience, and love your friend deserves. My hours are flexible and I am able to make my own schedule for work, therefore I am able to accommodate the needs of your pets care at your convenience and am a very dependable pet care taker. I have always had so much love for animals since I was a little girl and that love has only grown more as I’ve matured. I know how weary it can be trusting a new person with something so precious to you and I want to be someone who can put your mind at ease knowing that your fur baby is in great hands! I am a very responsible, reliable, and loving individual who really enjoys caring for and being around animals. Your companion will get all the love and attention they deserve while in my care!
About: I’ve always have pets in my life since I was young. I’ve cared for cats, dogs of all sizes, fish, birds, mice, hamsters, rabbits, turtles and small snakes. This includes cats and dogs with special medical needs. My family, friends and coworkers often turn to me to care for their animals when they leave town, I’m always delighted to help. I promise to love your pets as much as you do! I work a PT with a rotating schedule alternating AM and PM availability. I’m more than happy to accommodate to meet any specific time constraints! I have a small fenced in yard and access to large grassy areas for exercise if boarding at home. I’m very respectful of personal property and will follow any specific directions left to care for you home as well as your pets.
“Nathaly is caring and dependable. My pets look forward to their time with her playing and being snuggled. I have an elderly dog who requires medication and a special diet and Nathaly carries her down the steps and makes sure her needs are met. She is a loving person and flexible with my crazy schedule and long shifts. 💕”
About: What sets me apart from other care takers is the level of care and attention I give every animal. I take the time to understand their personality and routine and I prioritize inclusion. I love to keep them active and mentally stimulated especially the ones that are ready to rock and roll! I am always available to give updates and even FaceTime so the owners have peace of mind. I would expect that from anyone taking care of my fur baby as well. I am naturally a very active person and being able to play, walk and care for animals is something I genuinely enjoy doing, so pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I provide attentive, compassionate, and reliable care for pets in my home.I respect each pet owner’s instruction's, including feeding schedules, fresh water, exercise, playtime, medication (if needed), and maintaining a clean environment. I make pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them attention, monitoring their behavior, and respecting their routines.
About: I specialize with big dogs and elderly dogs. I'm a taller guy with a longer walking stride so larger dogs can get more for workout. My schedule is daily throughout the whole day. I normally like to plan 24 hours in advance but if my schedule is open I don't mind same day or last minute. Tuesday -Thursday from 11am-3pm I am not available I currently have no pets right now at my home I do have a rather large backyard. At the parents home, I do make sure that the pets are well fed and hydrated before leaving unless otherwise told.

“Stacey was great! I was very nervous about leaving my boy with a petsitter for the first time but everything went very well. Stacey was very professional, great with dogs & made me feel at ease. Highly recommend her!”
About: Growing up, I was always around dogs and developed a strong love for them. I have owned German Shepherds, Labrador Retrievers, and German Shorthaired Pointers. I have always walked, and fed the dogs in the house. I work early mornings and am finished before noon, so I have plenty of time during the day to care for pets. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and enjoy some fresh air. I also have a friendly German Shorthaired Pointer/Beagle mix named Oreo who loves having other dogs around. We can play catch in the yard, go for walks around the neighborhood, and I’ll make sure each pet is fed, cared for, and given plenty of attention.
About: I've owned and taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. I have experience with various breeds and ages, including senior dogs. I offer consistency and the utmost care, so you can rest assured that your pup is in good hands. I am a full time dog mama of a 6 year old Lab Mix with plenty of time to devote to your furry best friend. To care for your pup I create a home away from home environment and a balanced routine and schedule catered to their needs. I have two enclosed porches, a backyard, crates if needed, a doggie splash pool, plenty of toys, and a friendly Lab Mix to keep your doggie company. While caring for your pup here or in your home, you can expect the utmost responsibility and consistency.
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. I grew up with dogs, have two cats of my own, volunteer with a senior dog rescue, and have fostered around eight dogs—all of whom found loving homes through adoption. I'm comfortable walking up to three medium- to large-sized dogs at a time and always prioritize safety on every walk. I enjoy taking dogs on different routes so they can explore new sights and smells while getting safe exercise and mental enrichment. I provide drop-in visits that include feeding, refreshing food and water, cleaning bowls, scooping litter boxes, picking up after dogs, playtime, and plenty of affection—whether that's belly rubs, ear scratches, cuddles, or a game of fetch. I have experience administering oral medications to both dogs and cats, as well as applying topical ointments to dogs when needed. I understand how important it is to follow care instructions carefully and treat every pet as if they were my own. Communication is important to me, so I'll keep you updated with messages and photos, sharing the fun moments from each visit as well as any concerns if they arise. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your beloved pet is receiving loving, dependable, and attentive care. I work full-time Monday through Thursday, but I have flexibility to provide evening visits on workdays, as well as more open availability on Fridays and weekends. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, medication, or some extra love and attention, I'll do my best to accommodate your schedule and provide dependable, consistent care. I believe every pet is happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's schedule, personality, and preferences. During drop-in visits, I'll provide fresh food and water, clean bowls, scoop litter boxes or pick up waste, administer medications if needed, and make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. For dog walks, I focus on safe, enjoyable walks tailored to your dog's age, energy level, and comfort. I always prioritize safety by using secure leashing practices, staying alert to our surroundings, and following any instructions you provide. I'm respectful of your home and will leave it just as I found it. I'll also send updates and photos after each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to care for your pets as if they were my own.
“Dalton was awesome! He dropped in on cats twice a day while I was on vacation and always made sure to give updates, which I really appreciate! By mid-week both cats were comfortable with him and didn't hide. Dalton also went above and beyond and watered my plants for me!”

About: I took care of my neighbors pets all my life. House sitting, sometimes just going over to let them outside. I’m trusted with pet care I work full time but off on most weekends, so I’m free most weekends. Usually off during the week by 3:30 pm. Major holidays I’m off as well I prefer to house sitting dogs at the clients place. That is preferred just because the dogs are already in a good environment at their house. I have two dogs currently and my mom lives at home as well.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Parkville is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Parkville
Catherine has made traveling stress free for our family, and we’re so grateful we found her! We first booked her last minute over Memorial Day, and she was incredibly accommodating, calm, and thoughtful with both us and our 9 year old Border Collie/Lab, Raine, who gets a serious case of the blues and anxiety when we leave. Catherine met Raine exactly where she was, and by day 3 she was all tail wags when Catherine showed up. Her detailed updates gave us peace of mind, and we knew right away we’d book with her again. On our most recent trip, Raine was excited to see her from the start, which says everything about how caring and fun Catherine is. She also handled an unexpected encounter with an unruly dog during a walk with good judgment and care, making sure Raine and everyone involved stayed safe. That kind of attentiveness means so much when you're trusting someone with your pup. I feel completely comfortable leaving Raine in her hands, and I’d recommend Catherine in a heartbeat. We already have future trips planned and will absolutely be booking with her again!
Crissy took great care of Vinny during her drop-in visit. We did a meet and greet first and she was super patient with him since he is slow to get to know new people. She asked great questions at the meet and greet, then gave thorough (and cute!) updates after the visit. He was comfortable with her and she kept his occupied and happy.
Erin was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Lola, while we were away for a week. She stopped by twice a day to walk her, feed her, and give her plenty of attention. Lola adored her from day one. What really impressed us was Erin’s calm, thoughtful care during an unexpected heat wave. She kept us updated, adjusted Lola’s routine to keep her safe, and made sure she stayed healthy and comfortable despite the weather. Her communication was timely, kind, and incredibly reassuring. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup — the best sign of all. We highly recommend Erin as a sitter to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and truly attentive.
Laura was so great! She came right on time, did a 30ish minute walk, and spent the remainder of the time feeding/playing with/enriching Brinkley. She was willing to work with a high energy puppy who doesn’t know personal space yet, and handled it wonderfully. We would absolutely love to have Laura look after Brinkley again.
Our 8 year old chocolate lab thinks Michael is the best....and so do we! Recently he took care of Ladybug in our home for five days and everything went perfectly: Many updates and pics reassured us that she was being well taken care of. Michael was also clearly respectful of our home. We returned to a happy and healthy Ladybug and a neat and orderly house. We are so grateful to have found Michael! The most recent check-in on Ladybug went just as well, allowing us peace of mind that all was well with our pup when we were out.
Katie was wonderful! She was available to help me out on short notice and was dependable, communicative, and caring. I had total peace of mind knowing my pup was in her hands. Katie was easy to work with and gave Penny lots of love. I will definitely book with her again; highly recommend!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Parkville 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.
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 Parkville 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.

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.

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.
