“A fantastic sitter who truly goes above and beyond. During a storm, a tree blocked our road, and she and her partner helped clear it—an incredibly kind and unexpected gesture. She also took the initiative to restock our dog food, which saved us a trip after a long vacation. The dogs were happy and well-cared for, and we loved the photo updates. We'll definitely be booking with her again! Both of these options highlight the incredible things Lillian did, focusing on her proactive nature and the peace of mind she gave you. They also end on a positive note that makes it easy for other dog owners to see why she's a great choice.”
“Nicolas responded promptly to communications and did what we'd asked, even dealt with a rather complicated feeding process with grace! As a bonus, he was even already familiar with Litter Robots. Thanks for taking good care of our pets while we were away.”
“Casey was great! One of our furbabies needs a lot of meds throughout the day. She gave us lots of updates and sent pictures which made us feel at ease while away! We definitely recommend her!”
“Camryn was wonderful caring for our pups at our place. We were out of town for a wedding for 4 days and you wouldn't even have known anyone was at our place. I would highly recomend having Camryn look after your home and/or dogs.”
About: Hello everyone, I recently graduated from the University of Michigan school of Dentistry and just began my residency here in Kansas City. As a double Wolverine, Go Blue!! Growing up I had a German Shephard and have two Yorkies although they currently live with my parents. I miss them every day so I am looking to direct my love and care towards your lucky dog(s)! I have dog sat for friends and family before and work regularly for Wag maintaining a 5-star rating. I have had plenty of people tell me I am very good with dogs, which inspired me to get involved with providing these sort of services for local dog owners. I am a fairly athletic individual so I enjoy playful dogs and am willing to put in the work to make sure they get the exercise they need. Additionally, I love making sure all dogs receive sufficient affection to aid their emotional development. Our furry friends positively contribute to uplifting our mental health, so I believe they deserve to be held in such importance and treated with respect. Sincerely, Torrey My residency will keep me busy 9-5 every day. I have no problem staying at your residence, having done many house sittings throughout my care career. I typically let my pupper visitors sleep or hang out wherever I am as long as they do no shed profusely and it aligns with their home experience.
“Janelle was great and we look forward to booking with her again soon! This was her first time staying with our pups and she took great care of them. Almost positive they were hoping it was her instead of us when we got home :)”
“One of our best experience on Rover with Rachel! She took care of our cats so well and even kept the house in perfect shape while we were out for a long vacation. I would totally recommend her for any of your house stays or visits. She's timely, organized and very particular about giving medicines, treats or even playing with your kitties. ❤️”
“Katelyn was great. Came over to meet and greet and all our pets warmed up ro her right away. Not only were fur babies well cared for, house was spotless on our return. Will definitely book again.”
“Super communicative and made our pets feel comfortable. It seems they really loved her and it gave me such peace of mind to know they were well cared for. Would hire again.”
“Tierra was awesome with house-sitting Millie. As a groomer she had tons of experience with dogs who are a little anxious. She was also quick to respond to messages. I would definitely rebook with her”
“Alyssa was great with my dog! She was very responsive and started the process of meeting my dog right away. She sent me pictures pretty much every day I was away and I can tell my dog was well taken care of. On top of that, she was a courteous guest and my house was cleaner than I left it.”
“Kennedy did a great job with four big, energetic dogs-even the timid one likes her! She took care of them over a weekend. She communicated well and kept everything clean. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Chloe did an amazing job with our two pups. One of our dogs had a last minute injury and had to take medicine while we were gone and Chloe handled it very well! She left our house in great condition and our boys were very happy to have her company. Chloe also sent a ton of photos to us which really helped me as this was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of family members’ pets since I was about 13. However, in the last 3 years I’ve built up my client list and have 4 consistent customers whose dogs, cats, and parrots I watch for days at a time. I’m trusted with house keys to watch their animals, feed them at specific times, administer needed medications at specific times, take them for walks, and give lots of love and attention. I’m currently working full time (9-5) in downtown Chicago. I live in Uptown, and would love to make some extra cash on the side doing something I really enjoy - walking dogs! My availability M-F is any time after 6. On the weekends I’m very flexible and open to anything. Unfortunately, at this time in my life I will not be providing home boarding, crating, or pet-sitting services at my own personal residence. Sorry for the inconvenience.
“Candice did a fantastic job with my pup Bo. By the pictures sent to me he appeared to be having a blast. Once she left he was one tired pup. He went to the bedroom to lay down and I hardly heard a peep out of him the rest of the day/night. Thanks for making his day fun!”
About: I grew up in a veterinary family! Does your dog require grooming daily, pills, insulin, or even daily runs? Perfect! I aim to be available for all dogs even ones with special needs! I love lazy breeds and have lots of experience with energetic breeds like malinois and greyhounds! I live on a lake so if your pet loves water, they can swim! I have a large fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood. I can send updates daily of your furbaby❤️ I am up for any challenge. I took up sport and obedience training 7 years ago as well so if you need help while your pet stays here, reach out for that as well! If your pet needs to be the PNLY one here, i can accommodate that too. I work from home so your furry friends will always have me! I am available 24/7 for you to call as well to check up I have a fenced in yard and can take them for daily walks. You have the option of having then crated or uncrated if they are house broke. I have cages here of all sizes and beds. My cat is flea treated so I require your pets be UTD on flea meds too.

Jamie was incredibly attentive to Mindi & Riley’s needs, ensuring they were comfortable and happy throughout the stay. She provided regular updates and an adorable photo which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was evident that Jamie genuinely cared for my dogs. I will definitely use her services again.
This was my second time leaving my girls with a sitter. Jacee was wonderful, and made me feel completely at ease from the moment I met her, along with my dogs. She came to meet us at our home prior, and the one dog who takes a minute to get close, quickly welcomed her. Communicated frequently, sending pictures every morning and evening, which allowed me to see how happy they were with her, and I was able to not worry about them and focus on visiting and helping my grandfather while he is recovering in another state. I am looking forward to having her come back.
Casey recently spent the night with our senior cat who struggles with separation anxiety, and we returned to a very calm and happy kitty! Casey is always very communicative, sending photos and updates during her stay. We're completely comfortable having Casey stay in our home - she always leaves everything just as it was and is very neat and conscientious.
Abby did a great job. She attended to the needs of our older dog, who has an injury and required medication. She also made sure our younger pup got lots of exercise outside. And she was very communicative and professional throughout our booking. We fully recommend her!
