About: Hi! I'm Michelle, I've been dogsitting for friends and family since ~2016 and finally became a dog mom in 2020--it's the best! My husband, Brad, and I both love animals and are excited to join the Rover sitter community. We are comfortable with dogs of any age and any breed, and would care for your dog as if s/he were our own. We can administer medications as needed (we mostly have experience with oral and topical meds, but are willing to learn what's needed for your furry friend) and are very attentive to your dog's diet and feeding regime. We can't wait to welcome your dog into our home while you are away! Michelle works from home so your dog won't be on their own for long periods while staying at our home. We love taking our dog, Joni, on walks (& runs) everyday (we usually go several times each day) and we have a large fenced in yard for additional playtime, so your pup will get lots of outside time to burn off energy and sniff. Your dog will have full access to our home, just as our Joni does, with a variety of toys and bed options (including couches) available throughout the day. You'll get regular photo updates of your pup's adventures while you're away (unless otherwise requested). My husband and I have a large, fenced in backyard that's perfect for zoomies and playtime, and live in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Our 6 year old pup, Joni, is always looking for new friends and someone to share her toys with (she's up to date on her vaccinations and preventative meds and ask that your dog be as well). If your dog is crate trained, we'd be happy to find a space to set that up for them in our home during their stay, or they are welcome to use Joni's old crate which we can set up if needed. Additionally, feel free to bring any toys or bedding/blankets that help make your dog feel at home; we want him/her to have what they need to be comfy while you are away.
About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of dogs since I was about 15 years old. I’m an Eagle Scout and my project for becoming Eagle was with Great Plains SPCA. I have a pretty flexible schedule, so feel free to reach out! I’m currently working and going to school part time so I have plenty of free time to spend with your furry friends, big or small. I treat your pet or pets like a member of the family with love, care, and enthusiasm. Same goes for your home, belongings, and community.
“Stephanie was so helpful and kind with our two dogs! This was a first time using Rover and Stephanie exceeded all needs and eased our worry. With a senior dog who needs extra care and a younger dog who has much more energy, she was able to accommodate both of our boys to keep them happy and safe!”
“Ron is great and SO reliable. I never wonder for even a moment whether he’ll show up as scheduled or care for our dogs as we request. I can see in the photos he takes that the dogs greet him at the door with toys to show off to him — an unmistakable sign that they are happy to see him!”
“So great. This was the first pet sitter I’d hired and she did amazing with our older cat. She gave her pills and so many cuddles while we were out of town. I also appreciated all the Rover cards, updates, and great communication. When we go out of town again, Maddie will be the first person I contact.”
“Jennifer was great! She came over once a day to feed the cat and clean the litter box. I got lots of updates and photos. It was nice to get messages from someone who enjoyed hanging out with my cat.”
“Bones and Margie absolutely love Christina! Shes always on time and with me working over an hour a way shes someone i can trust. Highly recommend her for your fur babies!”
“Deidre did an amazing job getting my cats to trust her! She was consistent, communicative, and professional. She went above and beyond, and made me feel confident that my cats were in good hands while I was away. Highly recommend!!”
“Amber did an absolutely outstanding job and took really great care of Beckham! I had a somewhat short notice situation that required some flexibility and accomodations for shifts in the timeline of when I was coming & going/ None of that was an issue for Amber, which really helped smooth things out & took the stress out of the situation. Communication was great and everything was a total breeze. I will definitely be reaching out to Amber the next time I need a fantastic, responsible sitter for drop-ins or walks - and you should too! Super grateful to have found Amber and I would highly recommend!”
“Nancy was awesome! I hired her on short notice and she was so good with my puppy, giving him lots of loving and cuddle time during a pee and play break. Would definitely hire her again!”
“August is very thorough and takes great care in providing updates. My cats were provided with one on one treatment during the time they were cared for which was greatly appreciated. I will definitely use August again!”
“We’ve used Valerie numerous times for both short and long trips. She is currently the only sitter we use and have been more than satisfied with every booking! Would highly recommend her!!”
“Michael is wonderful! Our cat has to be pilled manually every day and is very attention hungry. Michael spent quality time with her and pilled her daily while we were out of town. He also took lots of pictures.”
“Marissa is fantastic!!! She took into great consideration of my cat’s boundaries while providing quality care when I am away. Will provide pictures and follows through with the schedule. Super sweet and handles last minute changes well. Highly recommended her services for anyone looking.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Prairie Village
Rachel is the best, hands down. My pets typically have some form of separation anxiety but they warmed up to her very quickly (which is a ringing endorsement in and of itself). My dog needed some medication while we were out of town and Rachel took care of it without any issues. She’s an absolute rockstar and I will be reaching out again when we travel next.
Amber came to our home for the first time to sit with our new (to us) dog Rigsby. Amber not only arrived on time she followed our guidelines to a tee. Rigsby took to her immediately which allowed me to get to my appointment on time. I would highly recommend this young lady to help you with your dog needs.
Dani took wonderful care of our cat, Dali! She was reliable, kind, and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Dali was well cared for and comfortable with her. We really appreciated her attention and care, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with Dani again. Highly recommend!
I cannot thank Griffin enough for my last minute request coverage. Nothing makes you more anxious than worrying about who is caring for your baby. I know she was a little stand offish at first but he was patient and took great care of her. Would definitely hire again!
So great. This was the first pet sitter I’d hired and she did amazing with our older cat. She gave her pills and so many cuddles while we were out of town. I also appreciated all the Rover cards, updates, and great communication. When we go out of town again, Maddie will be the first person I contact.
This was our first time using Rover and Kristin was fantastic with our two Frenchies! From the start, she was very fast to respond and I loved her experience. She came by for a meet and greet so our little rescue who can be nervous around new people would be comfortable. I got an update and pictures after each drop in so even while I was traveling, I had peace of mind they were okay. Highly recommend Kristin!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Prairie Village on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,882 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Prairie Village. 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 Prairie Village 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 Prairie Village. 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.
