Dog Sitting Raytown

“Destiny is amazing. She’s been my pet sitter for years (prior to Rover sign up.) While this visit was for checking in on my cat Destiny has always been an exceptional pet caregiver. She went above and beyond taking care of my older dogs prior to becoming a Rover sitter and I trust her implicitly caring for my animals. I come home and my pet is not anxious from my departure and it’s so relieving to know my cat is so well cared for while I’m away.”

“Gabby did great with Tess. She arrived on time. She sent pictures and a status update of what they did. We were pleased and we'll use Gabby again.”

About: I have hands on pet care experience from working in doggy daycare & being a dog mom myself! I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, including puppy care, basic training & those who need a little extra help getting around these days. I'm also comfortable administering medications as directed, but I don't currently administer insulin. While house sitting, I'm happy to help with light housekeeping, tidying up, and little extras like bringing in mail or watering plants at a small extra charge. My goal is to keep your pets happy, safe, and loved while keeping your home tidy! I work Monday - Friday until 4:30pm, so I'm generally available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. I'm happy to coordinate with pet parents to find a schedule that works best for their pets' needs. I'm also open to house sitting and being flexible to the pets' schedule while I'm in home as well! Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities! I follow your care instructions, maintain your pet's normal routine, and keep doors, gates, and outdoor areas secure. I'll send regular updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I also have a 1 yr old Bernese Mtn Dog who may be able to keep your pup company with your permission and only if it's a good fit for both dogs. I treat your home with respect and strive to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable!

“Makenzie provided excellent care for my three cats during a long 10 day trip! The cats were very comfortable with her, greeting her at the door every day, including the shy kitty. Makenzie paid attention to details like a power outage due to a storm, potential frost affecting my outdoor plants, and damage to a toy that the cats chewed on. I highly recommend her, and would definitely call her again in the future.”

“Best sitter ever! Hilary was incredibly communicative, attentive to my cats needs, and had creative and warm ideas for how to engage him and build trust. She even bought him an awesome catnip meow-icule treat and took the most amazing videos of him playing with it!”

About: I’ve grown up having dogs and taking care of them my whole life, became a part time dog sitter out of college and was booked almost every week of 2022 when I was living in St. Louis. Recently moved to Kansas City and would love some more regular clients! In St. Louis, I had a regular that was an elderly dog that required pills twice a day, so I have dealt with older dogs. I also got a puppy with my parents during that time, so I have recent experience with raising a puppy and keep up with her training (she was trained professionally, I just kept it up at home- I am not a professional trainer). Overall, I miss being around dogs and will make sure your pet is well taken care of and loved while you’re away! I work full time with the ability to work from home. I prefer to go into office for at least part of the day, but am flexible based on your pet’s needs. I typically stay overnight with my clients’ pets. I will base a typical day based on your normal schedule- if you work during the day but come home for lunch to walk the dog, I will do that. If you normally work from home with them all day, that can normally be arranged. I want to make sure to keep to your pet’s routine to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible while you’re away.

About: Hello, I have had experience with dogs my whole life, especially giant dogs, from Great Danes to mastiffs, from Shepard to labs, my family has owned and trained them all. I love to spend time learning how to train and engage with dogs of all breeds, I am not discriminatory towards any breed! All our dogs were raised since they were weeks old. Walking, exercise, training, feeding, snuggling, I’ve done it all. I work as a mechanic 4 days out of the week from 7-6pm. My shift rotates I always have Sunday and Mondays off and every other Friday and Saturday. If you have questions about my availability I’ll be happy to answer, I don’t mind pet sitting at anytime. I am willing to work around my schedule. I am currently in an apartment, if your puppet has good behavior when I step out I don’t mind leaving them out. I am familiar with crate training, so I can also put your puppet into crate if you feel more comfortable. Since I am in a small home I would take the pup out 3 times a day for walking/bathroom/exercise.

About: I’ve been pet sitting and fostering with KCPP for over 10 years and truly love caring for animals. While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for pets. References are available upon request! Through the years I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels, medical conditions, and I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. I’m big on following your instructions exactly, as no one knows your furry loved one the way you do. I also have personal experience caring for a senior dog, which taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of paying close attention to comfort, routines, and changing needs. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and understand how important consistency can be, especially for older dogs. Whether your dog loves walks and playtime or prefers a slower pace with extra cuddles and attention, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently work full-time remotely from home, from 6am-2pm. Then I nanny from 3-6pm. The only time I’m unavailable for drop-ins is during my nanny shift from 3-6pm, my full-time job allows me a lot of flexibility. I find it very important to follow a pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep things clean, calm, and consistent. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, medications as needed, and get the right amount of playtime and attention based on their needs and energy level. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality, whether they need extra cuddles, a slower pace, or lots of activity—and I adjust my care accordingly. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs and understand the importance of patience, gentle handling, and monitoring for changes in comfort or behavior. Since I’m new to Rover but have years of dog sitting experience, I take communication seriously and follow instructions carefully while providing updates. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away, while also bringing peace of mind to their owners that their pets are being lovingly and properly cared for.

“Ashley was amazing! We were honestly a little hesitant to let someone new around the boys as they are a tad territorial and a little apprehensive, but she was great with them. Our older one accepted her instantly and our little one was so happy to have a playmate for a bit during the day. She gave us updates the entire way to make sure we were okay. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”

Spencer S.

“Shelby is amazing and went above and beyond for our old kitty! She made extra time to make sure she got her meds even when our cat was putting up a protest and took the time to play and hang with her. She even watered our plants without us asking! Highly recommend and will definitely ask Shelby to sit again!”

Mary Beth E.

“Chandler was fantastic and went above and beyond! Even my more shy cat warmed up to her.”

Anna C.

“Morgan did a great job caring for Mr. Thick Whiskers. She provided helpful daily updates and found a new hiding spot for his food after it became apparent that we have an acrobat cat. I would highly recommend her.”

Ashley S.

“Katie did a fantastic job taking care of our perfect handsome Walter. We asked him how it went and he said I like Katie a lot mom. She was very nice to me and she took great care of me. You would approve mom!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16 years old, and we always had a dog or two in the house when I was growing up. This taught me responsibility and love for all dogs! I’ve taken care of many puppies, trained my own dogs from birth, and more. I tend to gravitate towards dogs and dogs tend to gravitate towards me. In my care, your dog will receive endless amounts of love and playtime between myself and my dogs, responsible care, a yard and frequent potty/food breaks, and a stress free experience for both you and your dog! I’m currently working full-time, but I am able to come home on lunch breaks Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to interact with the dogs. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, off Saturdays and Sundays. My schedule is pretty flexible so you can bet your dog will be taken care of! I have a fenced in back and front yard, and two sweet, trained, cuddly labs for your fur friend to play with (they love playing)! If I need to be away at any time, I can easily crate your dog next to my crate trained dogs. My dogs also enjoy the off leash dog parks, so if you are comfortable with it, I would take your dog to them for extra playtime! I feed my dogs twice a day, but can adjust to your dogs feeding schedule. I take my dogs out to potty about every 4 hours, but again, can adjust to your dogs potty needs. If in your home, your rules will be followed and I will only accept as long as I’m able to meet ALL of your needs. My goal is to provide a stress free home/experience for any fur friends needed!

About: I've spent years watching the pets of my friends and family. They have trusted me to bathe, feed, play, and care for their fur babies. I’m in between jobs and have lots of time to fit the needs that are required of me :) I am mostly free on the weekdays and my weekends are always free. Where I live currently isn’t suitable for pet sitting but I am more than willing to dog sit at the clients home if need be.

“Sarah was great! She was available last minute and was in contact with me the whole time. Highly recommend”

About: While I don't have formal experience, I've spent my whole life taking care of pets at home. I've even raised our current pups from puppies to adulthood, handling everything from feeding to playtime. My goal is to treat every pet like part of the family. I'm currently a college student down in Springfield, but whenever I'm back in town for breaks or summer, I will have a fairly flexible schedule! I'm available on the weekends, evenings, and soon to be during the weekdays as well! Every pet deserves the family treatment! I'm careful to follow their set routines and rules - whether it's playtime, feeding, or crate time. Your pet's safety always comes first!

“Abby was fantastic with my dogs, especially my new puppy. She responded quickly and politely. She was punctual and took the time to walk and play with my dogs. Highly recommend!!”
