“She was able to watch our little cat Georgia on such short notice and was incredible!! Definitely reach out to Amber the next time you need someone to care for your pets!!”

About: I have grown up with many pets and have always loved animals. I train my own pets and have worked with a variety of animals. I have the energy to match those pets they needs to play and get out! I currently work odd hours so I can get pets out mid day or in the evening or help provide late night care! I have long breaks in the middle of the day to stop by and provide care. I will follow all rules and guidelines given by the client when caring for a pet in their home. I will treat your home and pets as if they were my own and always make sure to leave things tidy.
About: I grew up taking care of indoor/outdoor cats, and outdoor hunting dogs. I have 3 cats of my own currently and often sit for family and friends’ pets. I am currently in between jobs, so my availability is open to care for your pet. I am happy to do weekends, and can stay overnight if needed. Pet care will need to happen in your home, as my home is not suitable for boarding. I am comfortable with walking and crating and I am respectful while in someone else’s home.
“Lucy is the best! Treats my pets like her own and I never have to worry when I'm out of town. I've been with Lucy for a couple years now and am always happy with her care and communication!”

“Becky is a wonderful caregiver for dogs. Stella just loved her. She is conscientious and so pleasant to work with. Considering our brief time in town and that we hadn’t had a meet & greet, it couldn’t have gone better.”

“Our first drop in with Lilly was great! We appreciated her willingness to do a meet and greet beforehand. Lilly is super communicative and made sure we went over all the details that might be needed during the visit. Our dog warmed right up to her! She fulfilled all our requests for the visit and sent detailed notes after with some great pictures. She even went as far as to share dates a month out where she would and would not be available for ongoing visits. I’m glad we found Lilly for our Rover rotation, it is a huge relief to have someone so professional and reliable for our drop in needs!”

“We had an excellent experience with Tyler and Lauren. They were trustworthy, always on time, and communicated clearly throughout our trip. Our vacation was less stressful knowing Toby and Skye were well cared for, and they were flexible and able to make adjustments on the fly when things came up. We would absolutely use them again and highly recommend them.”

“Jacob was an absolute professional! Extremely polite and sincere. He took amazing care of our 6 dogs and 2 cats while we were away on a weekend trip. I would highly recommend Jacob if you’re looking for someone who truly loves animals.”
“Anna did an amazing job taking care of my dogs! She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated throughout the visit, which gave me peace of mind. My dogs were happy and well-cared for when I returned, and it’s clear she truly loves animals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Reagan was so great with our kitties. They instantly took a liking to her and were well taken care of. She was very communicative and shared daily updates with pics. Highly recommend”

“Myranda & Kary were great as always! They gave us peace of mind that our cats weren't completely alone during the holidays and even fed our fish. We couldn't recommend them enough 💜”

About: I’ve helped care for a wide range of animals some being as young as a week old to being over 14 years old. I have loved caring for hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits and the average house cat and dog. I have some free time with college classes being over for the summer and my student worker position that doesn’t require much of my time. So I would love to fill that time doing something I would love. At home I have a friendly and energetic blue heeler that loves to play ball and a senior orange tabby cat that is sweet but on his own time. I love caring and playing with them and any of my family and friends animals.
“Adelina stepped in very last minute when we had to leave quickly for a family emergency. She kept our little guy company the daily pictures were our favorite part. He loved her and so do we! We will definitely be requesting her again in the future!”

“Jen did a great job taking care of our cat Phoebe while we were out of town! Jen sent great updates every day including photos of the happy cat, and did everything on the daily checkup list at every visit. We would definitely choose Jen again if we got the chance.”

Rockhurst pet parents share their Rover experiences
Tyler was exceptional and provided outstanding care for our dog during our time away. They were punctual, reliable, and maintained excellent communication throughout the duration of his care. I would highly recommend Tyler to anyone seeking a responsible and dependable sitter, and we look forward to booking with them again in the future.

Isabelle took great care of our two cats while we were on vacation. She was always on time and communicated with us via pictures and text messages. One of the cats was a little difficult due to separation anxiety. Isabelle communicated the situation, listened to our suggestions, and worked extra hard to make him feel less sad. She cared about the cats and was extremely professional.
