About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pets for family, friends, and neighbors. As a college student and athlete, I’m dependable, responsible, and active, so your pets will get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’m a full-time college student with a mix of online and in-person classes, which gives me flexibility throughout the week. I also play collegiate soccer, but I plan my schedule carefully and update my availability regularly. I’m available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks during my free time, as well as many evenings and weekends. I’ll always communicate clearly to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I will follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special requests to help them feel comfortable. I’ll provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always keep their well-being first.
“I’m so thankful for Erika! I was nervous about leaving our 14 year old cocker spaniel Sophie for a week long trip. Erika was conscientious, communicative, flexible, professional, kind, trustworthy, mature, and responsible! She really loves animals. I can’t recommend her highly enough. When we returned home, Sophie was peaceful and content, calm and happy. Thank you, Erika, for making our vacation enjoyable by taking such good care of Sophie and our home.”
“Jennifer was fantastic! Bill had a blast with her and she kept the house in great shape. Would highly recommend having Jennifer watch your pets / house!”
“Angela was amazing! She took great care of our dog, three cats and chickens. We are always nervous to leave our little family behind when we travel, but Angela was very responsive and we knew they were safe and in good hands. We'll be going to Angela for help whenever we can. We cannot recommend her enough!”
“We could not have asked for a better first experience using Rover than with Mya! From start to finish, she made leaving our boy so stress-free. She took the absolute best care of him, treating him like her own and sending the cutest picture updates that completely brightened our days while we were away. Beyond being fantastic with him, Mya took wonderful care of our home, leaving everything so tidy and well kept. It was such a relief to come back to the happiest pup and total peace of mind. We are so grateful to have found Mya and will definitely be booking with her again—we couldn't recommend her more highly!”
“Jenna was great. Super communicative, very attentive during the meet and greet, and sent regular updates for both my pets. I would definitely have her house sit again!”
“Lauren was great with Cai, an indulged Cardigan Welsh Corgi. Cai was happy and looks forward to Lauren's visits. . Lauren connects with openness and kindness. Cai liked her immediately and enjoyed her visit! Thanks, Lauren for sleeping with Cai and letting him show you his world.”
“Erin was fantastic! We had severe storms while we were away and Erin was conscientious enough to watch the sump pump and take care of the patio furniture so it wouldn't get blown away too. We were grateful for that!! She took several amazing photos of our dog and communicated daily. We will definitely use her services again in the future. She has a very sweet personality too!!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have cared for them all through college. I have a background as a Registered Nurse, so keeping your pup safe, happy and comfortable is second nature for me. Whether your dog needs medication, a specific routine or extra gentle care for their senior years. I’m fully comfortable handling whatever they need. Your pup will get endless cuddles, playtime and attention while you're away! Plus plenty of photo updates so you always have peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I have completely open availability right now and am at home all day, so that your pup gets 100% of my time, attention and care. My home is very pet friendly with cozy spots for naps, dedicated feeding areas, and plenty of room for play. I stick strictly to your routine so they feel right at home
“This was my first rover experience and Monica was so communicative with photos of Charlie during the weekend which was awesome! Had such a great experience and I know Charlie did too!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a young child. I have experience with puppies, large and small dogs, and cats too. I house sit for all of my friends when they leave town. Whether it’s stopping by to check on kitties or staying in home to watch the pups, I’ve done it all! I just love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I am a full time student in Lawrence, KS and also work as a part-time float medical assistant around the Kansas City Metro Area. I work on Mondays and Fridays from 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM (This is the maximum amount time I would be away from your pet). My classes are on Tuesdays 9:30 AM - 3:15 PM and Thursdays 12:00 PM - 4:30 PM out in Lawrence, KS. I’m essentially off on Saturdays, Sundays, and Wednesdays. I will make myself available as possible for your beloved pet within these limitations. I cannot offer care in my house, all care provided would either be outside (for walks/play) or inside your home. I can offer to either come by at your requested times or I can stay in-home during your leave.
“Maryn did an amazing job taking care of my 2 dogs. When we returned the dogs were happy and the house was clean and neat. She is very responsive when you contact her. Great job!”
“Julia stayed at our house with our dog while we were out of town! She was great, would recommend & would have her house sit for us again! She sent photos, communicated promptly & left our home just the way she found it. We appreciate you Julia!”
“I think she did a wonderful job watching our animals! She sent us a couple pictures and checked in just about every day. She stayed and hung out with our golden retriever and the house looked untouched when we came back! Definitely recommend!”
“Wendy watched our 2 dogs while we were away for a weekend. She was very attentive & sent pics throughout her stay at our home. We found her to be very trustworthy and will definitely be using her services again!!”
“Thomas was amazing with our animals. So loving and kind, they were happy and healthy when we returned. He also took immaculate care of our apartment, it was clean and tidy when we returned!”
About: 🐾Hello! I have over a decade of dog sitting experience, ranging from pomeranians to saint bernards.

We could not have asked for a better first experience using Rover than with Mya! From start to finish, she made leaving our boy so stress-free.

We are so grateful to have found Mya and will definitely be booking with her again—we couldn't recommend her more highly!
Lauren was a fantastic sitter! Communication was great whether it was asking questions or letting me know how my critters were doing. I could tell Rags (Brussels) and Clyde (Jardine) were well taken care of the week I was gone. Would highly recommend Lauren for pet care and will be using her again in the future.
Kaitlyn did an amazing job caring for our two dogs while we were away for the week. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure our pups were happy and well cared for. She also kept our home clean and tidy throughout her stay, which we truly appreciated. We came home to happy dogs and a well-kept house! We would absolutely recommend Kaitlyn and will definitely reach out to her again for future trips!
My highly anxious and fearful dog has some pretty rough "quirks" - It's hard to find a sitter who fits well with her personality. Rafaela was flexible when needed, had a very calm energy, and showed up to both the meet & greet AND the housesitting job clearly having reviewed all of the info on my dog's profile (she immediately asked - totally unprompted - whether my dog had already taken her medication for the day. Details like this made me 100% confident that she would follow all guidance exactly as planned). I felt very confident leaving my dog with her and would happily rebook!
We really appreciated how well Anna took care of our pup, Fern. She communicated well, sent pictures and updates and contacted me with any questions she had. It's not easy leaving an elderly dog with anxiety, but we felt assured that she was well taken care of, and a big bonus was coming home to a clean home! Couldn't have been more pleased with the job she did! Would highly recommend her services!!
Jennifer goes above and beyond, helps with watering the plants as well as making our little lady feel loved and safe while we are away. It’s hard being away from our dog while we are traveling but we know Ilsa is having a great time without us because she’s with Jennifer.
Michael was an incredible sitter for Buddy while I was away! He was so attentive and made sure Buddy stayed on his normal daily routine, which gave me so much peace of mind. He sent daily updates along with plenty of pictures, so I always knew Buddy was happy and well cared for. Not only did Michael take Buddy along with him when he ran errands (Buddy absolutely adores car rides!), but he also made sure Buddy got plenty of playtime with other dogs. It was clear that Buddy was treated like part of the family. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter during my time away. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for someone who is reliable, caring, and genuinely loves dogs. Thank you again, Michael
Regan was awesome. We were so relieved to have him on the job, and able to relax about both our pets and our home and posessions. He is perfect, and we will try to use him again, if he’s still doing this (he has a pretty glowing future ahead of him in the medical field), by the time we need a sitter again.
The best sitter we've ever had! He took the time to ask about any special needs, was communicative, and sent plenty of photos and videos so we didn't miss out on any fun moments when we were away. 10/5 stars for Diamonds. We will definitely be using him again!
I was so lucky to find Brenna!! She completed an in home sit for my two dogs and left them happy and the house spotless. She was a great communicator throughout, sending photos and regular updates. Nothing was better than coming home to fresh sheets, and she even left me a delicious homemade casserole for my first day back, which was such a lifesaver so I didn’t have to prioritize grocery shopping and food prep. Thank you so much, Brenna!!
Mattie really seems to love our fur babies when taking care of them in our absence. We regularly received text photos and updates letting us know how they were all doing. In one picture, one of our cats was laying on Mattie's legs while our dogs were snuggled up the each side of her. Our condo lobby attendant said Mattie was super nice and great with our pets.
Kara is awesome! She stayed with my cat while I was overseas for nearly three weeks and, for the first time ever, I returned to a content boy who acted almost like I hadn’t even been gone (usually it takes about a week for him to express his disapproval and get over my absence/return). My cat is very particular on who he likes, but from the first night he was wrapped around her neck and snuggled in as if she were me! I received plenty of photo updates and he received tons of love and snuggles and consistent meals schedules as if I were home. Kara is just the best!
