“So great. This was the first pet sitter I’d hired and she did amazing with our older cat. She gave her pills and so many cuddles while we were out of town. I also appreciated all the Rover cards, updates, and great communication. When we go out of town again, Maddie will be the first person I contact.”
“Joan was absolutely amazing! She sent us updates at every drop-in. She was always on time and went above and beyond to care for our furry babies. We were able to enjoy time with our family for Thanksgiving without worrying. I highly recommend her.”
“Chandler was awesome watching my cat Margot! She sent the best pictures and took time to play with her and ease her anxiety about me being away from home. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have shared my home with various dog breeds and personalities since birth. I will love your dog as much as you do! I look forward to providing your dog with the same care they receive from you. Whether that's giving them long walks or playing with them around the house, I will maintain your dog's strictest routines. My flexible schedule allows me to visit your home multiple times a day to give your best friend the attention they deserve. My extroverted personality, attention to detail. and positive attitude will grant you peace of mind, and your dog a new best friend! Please do not hesitate to ask for my previous dog owners for their references. They were very satisfied! Now that I am working from home several days, my availability is more open. With my flexible work schedule, I am available to walk or check in on your pets. I am also available in the evenings when you need a break. I am happy to continue your routines when dog sitting to keep your pet comfortable. We can easily discuss what that looks like for you.
“I’ve used Rover as a caretaker but never as a pet parent before and Jake calmed all my nerves! He kept me updated with pictures and notes about how Obie was doing in my absence. Seeing Obie warm up to Jake and become friends was so sweet. I’ll use him again in the future.”
“We had Vanessa watch our two young cats over Thanksgiving week. Vanessa was great with them and with us - attentive to their needs and very responsive to us. Our favorite was the pictures she shared in the after-visit reports, and our cats’ favorite was seeing their new buddy. Vanessa was very respectful, professional, and kind. Would definitely ask Vanessa to come back in the future!”
“Kirin is the best! She’s one of the few people our nervous little Bean trusts. She’s helped us out numerous times over the past 5 years & has always been kind to our pups & respectful of our space.”
“Megan was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our three little ones and treated them like her own. From the very beginning, she showed great attention to detail and made sure every need was met — from feeding and walks to cuddles and playtime. It was clear how much love and care she put into everything she did. We came home to three happy, relaxed pups and couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and attentive sitter!”
“Jenna was absolutely incredible! Super friendly, sent lots of photos, always made sure their food was full and their litter was clean. Gave constant updates which was deep appreciated as someone who is an anxious cat mom!”
About: -- Grew up with medium sized dogs. Our parents bred our dogs, so I am versed in the young puppy stage. -- Lived with cats, aiding with their care I love any and all furry creatures and am always down to make a new furry friend. Any questions, just ask! I currently am working part-time and have time to take care of dogs and cats alike. I have yet to meet a furry friend that I don't get along with. I adapt to each pet's home environment and/or training. Consistency and routine is important for any animal and I strive to incorporate that both in my personal and professional life.
About: Like many kids, I wanted to be a veterinarian. Like most, that didn’t happen. So I have 4 dogs instead (and a tortoise!). I have trained all of my dogs, helped friends and neighbors with dog training, do all grooming in-home, and I absolutely love caring for furry friends. I have a flexible work-from-home schedule and would love to check in on your dog(s) and go for a walk! Early mornings, mid-day, or night-time is a-ok. As a therapist, I love how dogs can tune in to their owners’ nervous systems and detect when comfort is needed. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, including puppies. Whatever you need, I’ve done it and can do it!
About: My job is to help your dog(s) be most comfortable while you're away. Be it through daily exercise, romps through the dog or neighborhood park, constant rub downs and playing chase, your pup(s) won't even have a moment to realize you're gone, but they'll still be thrilled to see you when you get home. I've been dog sitting for over 20 years and have experience with various types of dogs, dog personalities, and health conditions. Contact me to watch your pooch(es) and you won't regret it! I love dogs and walk my dog regularly. My dog loves being around other dogs but we’re a single dog house for our full-time lives. I’d love my dog to get some extra friend time while I get to love on other pups. I have a fenced yard, the perfect raised deck for puppy tv, yard leashes (if needed), a crate (if needed), several bedroom options if your pup needs a quiet place to rest, and sooo many dog beds! I do use furniture protectors to keep my couches clean for the humans but it allows the dogs to live among us on our elevated perches.
About: I enjoy taking care of all types of animals. Family and friends have relied on me for years to spend time with their best friend I’m working part time, with school and working out. I have flexible hours so I’m available when needed. I will plan around walking hours or just stopping by if needed I have a fenced in yard with a lot of grass for outdoor activities. My house is well equipped for any type of animal that would need a home for a little
“Ryan did a great job and the pets loved him! We appreciate him taking our last minute request and will definitely consider him if the need arises in the future!”
“An absolute sweetheart and was very attentive to the needs of my cat, King. Always would keep in communication regarding his well being. She even noticed that he wasnt eating much out of his new automatic feeder to which she put some food for him in his old bowl which then prompted him to eat! Highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her again :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Roeland Park
Ron was absolutely wonderful with our senior dogs, Buddy and Darla! He took such great care of them over the weekend and made sure to give us updates and pictures. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands and being well cared for. We truly appreciate the love and attention he gave them and would highly recommend Ron to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. We will definitely book with him again!
Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Marci, Chandler! Knowing you were popping in three times a day and being so reliable brought me total peace of mind. The regular photo updates were fantastic and made me feel so connected while I was away. I truly appreciate your exceptional care 🧡
Kirsten was outstanding! She was so easy to work with and flexible. She followed all +the instructions and sent great (and humorous) photos each visit. My cat loved her! What a relief to come home to a relaxed, happy cat. I highly recommend her, and will definitely ask her back for my next trip!
One word: incredible. From the moment I met Joann, I could tell she was a very genuine and caring person (& my dog could too)! Throughout the visit, I was updated with pictures & she handled my dog’s many needs with ease - bladder expression, mobility, wound care, etc. Highly, highly recommend!!
Jennifer and her husband watched our cats while we were on our honeymoon for two weeks and did a fantastic job. They sent us thorough updates each day and gave our problem cat his pill each morning. They followed instructions perfectly, played with them, cleaned up nicely, and gave us peace of mind while we were gone. This was our first time booking with them and would do it again in a heartbeat. We appreciate the care you provided to our boys! Thank you!
We had a great experience with Emily. She was very attentive, caring and sent pictures. I was pretty particular about who I trusted with Sol my French Bulldog, so finding her is a relief. Our dog seemed very happy and relaxed around her even at the very first visit. I will for sure use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Roeland Park is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $19 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,801 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Roeland Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
