“Tim did a wonderful job with my 9year old dog. He was available to watch her extremely last minute while I was in town and sent me lots of photo and video updates throughout her stay. Tim took her on lots of walks and lots of love and snuggles.”
About: I worked at a dog boarding/playcare facility for 2.5 years. I was responsible for monitoring dogs body language for safe and healthy off leash play. Administered medications according to owner and vet guidelines to dogs and cats. Bathed, blow dried, brushed, and gave nail trims to dogs. Prepared food and water for 40+ dogs according to owner guidelines and allergy restrictions. Trained to watch for pet related issues such as seizures, kennel cough, heat stroke, bloat and other serious issues, and to act accordingly. I currently don’t have a job as I just moved and graduated from college. I absolutely love all animals and love taking care of them. I have a large fenced back yard that has a dog pool. I have a 9 month old golden retriever puppy to keep your pup(s) company while in my care! I can crate your dog if needed or preferred.
About: My experience caring for dogs comes from having dogs in the house growing up, big and small! I absolutely love meeting new dogs and learning about each of their personalities. I am the person you will catch staring at your dog from my car as you walk down the sidewalk :) I have 2 spoiled rotten dogs and a kitty, which means I know the stress that pet moms and dads can go through trying to find the best care for their babies. I would love to have the opportunity to care for your pets, while offering you peace of mind that your babies are being loved and cared for. I am willing to work with different pricing options for extended jobs. Drop-ins and walks can occur anytime after 7:15 AM and I can accommodate afternoon and evening visits with some flexibility. I make my own hours and as long as your pet can be taken out within a window of time, I can make almost anything work! I always ensure that I have an eye on the animals at all times, especially when using outside doors, to prevent anyone slipping out. On drop-ins, I play with, pet, feed, and water your dog, I can pick up after your pet (outdoors, same day "business")
“Kimberly was fantastic! She was so kind and nice to me and my dog Hanna. Kimberly sent me updates and photos of Hanna to help ease MY separation anxiety. Highly recommended Kimberly!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Salina
Tim was great with our doggo Rascal. Rascal is hesitant around new people, but Tim got right down to his level and let Rascal come to him. He warmed up quickly when Tim took him for a neighborhood walk and played with him. Rascal also got plenty of chill time. All in all, a great day!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Salina commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in KS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.
To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
