“What a fantastic experience! Marissa looked over my two cats during our extended honeymoon stay. Marissa was so easy to work with and allowed us to add four additional days onto our honeymoon thanks to her flexibility and professionalism. I truly cannot give a high enough rating for the experience and piece of mind she provided.”
“Nancy did an outstanding job dog sitting for our 77 pound Golden Retriever! Nancy was a great communicator and came to meet Molly with treats in her pocket and made an instant connection with our dog! Nancy was prompt with her booked times and gave our pet medication as well. Finding the perfect dog sitter is always a nerve wrecking process. We were thrilled when we found Nancy nearby and we will definitely have her back again!”

“This was my first time to use Rover and I had such a great experience with Marinda! She watched my cat while I was away for a few days and she kept me updated with photos and videos on each visit. I recently changed my cats food and he has been iffy with it, but Marinda gave me peace of mind letting me know how he was eating with each drop-in visit. She kept the litter box clean, vacuumed up messy litter, and even washed a few dishes! I could tell my cat Buzz loved playing with her based on the videos she sent. She was always quick to respond and thorough in her updates. I will definitely use her services again and I highly recommend her for your pet!”
“Ron took great care of our dogs over a five day period during a busy holiday season. His drop-in visits occurred in the schedule we had requested, and he managed the daily walks we had asked for in addition to the regular feeding, watering, and backyard visits. With all the real-time notices of his visits, and we were able to relax and enjoy our trip. Great experience!”

About: With over 50 years of hands-on experience in pet care. I've dedicated my life to understanding and supporting the well-being of animals, especially dogs. For 8 years, I have worked as a veterinary technician, where i gained in-depth medical knowledge and practical skills in animal heath, emergency care and preventative treatment. My background also includes extensive experience in both basic and advanced dog training focusing on obedience, behavior modification and building strong bods between pets and their owners. Over the decades I've cared for animals of all ages, breeds and temperaments - from raising litters of puppies and kittens to providing compassionate support for senior pets. My approach combines patience, consistency and a deep respect and love for every animal's unique personality and needs. Things to consider prior to booking: • Are they friendly with other pets? I have one dog and 3 cats in our home. • Are they able to jump a 5ft fence? • Are they protected against Heartworm, Fleas and Ticks? • Potty Trained? I am happy to help train but just need to know ahead of time. • Up to date on all vaccines? • Big chewers? • Let us know if your pet has any special need or accommodation we should account for! I can accommodate a variety of needs! I am happy to provide whatever care your pet needs & make sure they are happy & comfortable in our home. A few things to know about what I offer: 100% Love and Care I take photos of your pet (I am not a professional photographer) – I will try not to overwhelm you! I do not require a meet and greet but am happy to do so. My preference is to introduce your pet(s) to mine slowly and very controlled environment. SAFETY is my #1 Concern for your pets and for mine. What to bring for your stay: Collar with a tag & leash Food (Label with the amount per meal) - Slow feeder if needed Medications, if needed Kennel (for boarding stays) - Anything to make them comfortable in their kennel (blanket, toys, bed) I generally don’t use a kennel if they are good house guests (no destruction or accidents) they can have house privileges. I will provide: Water Bowls (I have many throughout the house and outside) Foods Bowls Toys - Treats - Chew bones & treats Dog beds around the house (I have many) A Typical Day can be: Wake up and take them out to potty (I have a big, fenced back yard). Feed them breakfast Out for potty about 2 hours (or sooner) after breakfast. Relax, play and/or snooze as they want. Potty breaks are directed by their needs, they let me know they need to potty, and we go outside (I am their servant, and I stay with them while they are outside). They potty and play and then we come in. This goes on all day as needed. Cuddles on command and if they just want to lay around, I’m ok with that as well. I have taken all my dogs (past and present) through many different levels of training session – Puppy, Basic and Advanced. Let me know what you need, and I am happy to help. SPECIAL NOTE with Regard to Cats Cats do their own things and totally dictate their day to day and I respect and honor their wishes! I do have a room set up that they can call their own (if needed) and I have a secure Catio they can hang out in and enjoy fresh air. I am retired and love to help people and their pets. I have lots of free time and want to offer my knowledge and experience to people who have busy lives but want the best for their furbabies. I live on 3/4 acre and I have a large fenced in back yard. I do have a dog and 3 cats at home so any pets that need to be watched at my home need to be able to get along with them. I am dependable and honest and can also take care of your pets in your home. If you need to know anything else, please ask.
“Kirin is always reliable and consistent. She often takes the dogs for walks even when not requested. She is so caring, spends time playing with our pups and gives them a fun midday potty break 3x a week. She goes above and beyond, would recommend to anyone!”
“Great communication and flexibility when my booking was last minute! Phoebe is fearful of meeting new people but Katie gave her space and let her get comfortable with her during her drop in. Katie even took her out in the pouring rain!”
“Chandler was fantastic with Kacy and took some amazing photos that we looked forward to seeing each day. She gave us thorough updates on Kacy and we’re so grateful she was able to check in on her every day. She is a great communicator.

“Lori is a great dog sitter. I appreciate not only how good she is with my resident dogs but also how well she cares for the more timid foster dogs who stay with me at times. She is very trust worthy and thorough.”

Ann J.
“I am pleased to write this reference for Ann, she has provided exceptional pet sitting services for my dog and cats on numerous occasions over the past 8 years. From the moment we met, Ann demonstrated a natural ability to connect with animals. My dog, who can be a bit shy around new people, immediately warmed up to them, and my cat—typically aloof—also responded positively. Ann is reliable, attentive, and has a genuine love for animals that is evident in everything they do. During my time away, I was always confident that my pets were in excellent hands. Ann provided regular updates, including photos and notes about their behavior and activities, which gave me great peace of mind. They followed feeding and medication instructions meticulously and ensured both pets received the attention and affection they needed. Beyond their experience with dogs, Ann is equally skilled at caring for cats, understanding their different needs and personalities. Whether it was taking my dog for long walks or spending quiet time with my cat, she showed patience, kindness, and professionalism at all times. I highly recommend Ann to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter, especially if you have multiple pets. They have always gone above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with my pets again.”

Roeland Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Grace was absolutely wonderful with Mia Peluche! She took such great care of her while we were away for the weekend. Mia immediately felt comfortable and happy around her, which says a lot—she’s usually very picky! Grace kept us updated and treated Mia like family. We came home to a relaxed, well-cared-for pup. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible pet sitter.
Chandler was so awesome and phenomenally sweet! she was attentive and communicative and on top of daily updates and pictures! we will for sure be using Chandler in the future to watch our 2 cats. this is the happiest and most stress free we’ve ever seen our cats after a trip away. We’re pretty sure the cats were disappointed to see it was us walking through the door and not Chandler :)
Nicole is so patient with my fur monsters. They like her so much. I love our pre-trip meets she's such a sweetheart. She also sends the best pictures.
Caitlin was a wonderful pet-sitter and I would use her again for sure. She was lovely with my cat, gave him lots of attention and made sure he had what he needed, and I loved the picture updates. Great communication and response times, and very accommodating regarding key exchange.
We love Jordan! She’s great with our boxers - I always have peace of mind when I know she’s caring for Millie and Milo!
Jill did so wonderful taking care of our sweet boy Tom!! Tom loved the attention and the love. Jill was consistent and super reliable and kind. Thank you for everything Jill!
Clove is great! Mo is pretty shy and usually doesn’t let people pet her, but she loved Clove and was very comfortable! Will definitely book Clove for future drop-ins.
Megan went above and beyond like she always has when watching como. I paid for a drop in visit and she even took como for a walk! It is nice having someone you trust drop in.
Amina did a drop in for our shy, senior girl. She gave pills and got her outside. Our girl seems to love her! :-)
Jacob did an excellent job. I made a last minute request for someone to drop-in on my dog, Blue. He always responded to my messages promptly. He followed all of my instructions and provided updates with each vist. While Jacob was caring for Blue, I didn't have to worry about anything which is exactly what I needed. My experience was 10/10. I would recommend Jacob for any Rover service you need. In return you will get peace of mind and a happy pet.
