“This is the second time we’ve used Lulu. And we are so thankful she agreed and was available to look after our three pups. Lulu updated me on the dogs twice a day, took the dogs for a walk, played with them and followed all of the instructions I left for her. We are so lucky we have found her! I highly recommend.”

“Kadyn did a wonderful job watching our two kitties and left our apartment better than she found it. She was an excellent communicator and followed all our instructions exactly. Most importantly, our cats both seemed happy and healthy all in the pictures she sent!”


“Jenni was outstanding! She was great to communicate with, went above and beyond in taking care of the house, and most importantly, the animals really felt safe with her. We will absolutely be requesting her services again.”

“Deidre was great! Took good care of my girls and my house. She kept me very informed and sent lots of pics. She went above and beyond. Would use her services again!”


“Erika is awesome with our puppy Lola. She has been timely, reliable and trustworthy. We feel comfortable and happy knowing our puppy is in safe hands! We have enjoyed getting to know and working with Erika and we would recommend her to other pet owners!”


“Erin was just wonderful! She has a very calming presence that our doggies appreciated. They hardly missed us while we were gone! She took excellent care of our home as well. We really loved the daily updates and photos that she sent. 11/10; highly recommended!”

“Maryn provided exceptional dog/house sitting services. She made sure my dog was attended to as requested, provided walks, kept the house tidy, and provided me with regular updates on my dog. This was my first time using Rover and she made the process seamless and worry free.”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and I am super passionate about animals. I have experienced both owning and sitting animals of all ages (especially puppies) and I would love to get to know your fuzzy friends!😊 I am a student, but currently on break for the summer so I am very flexible! I am a runner so long walks don’t bother me at all. Animals are one of my passions so I will be giving your fur baby as much attention as it needs. Whether that is a walk, a food and water refill, some pets or a simple potty break, I will be there!
“Katy was exceptional with our anxious boys. It's such a relief to know we have a fantastic person to watch our dogs and house! The pics showed they were happy and having a blast. It means the world to us to know they are in such great hands with Katy. Thank you so very much!!!”

“Julia stayed at our house with our dog while we were out of town! She was great, would recommend & would have her house sit for us again! She sent photos, communicated promptly & left our home just the way she found it. We appreciate you Julia!”

“We've used Mirette twice now to house-sit/dog-sit our older Westie, and she did a great job! She was great at communicating with us and was at the house the vast majority of the time with our dog, which we loved! The house was clean when we got home and we had no issues! We would recommend Mirette, and would definitely use her again the next time we travel!”

“Our dogs can be a handful and we always have a hard time with sitters not being comfortable with three big, especially with one that can be a little temperamental, but Payton was amazing with them and all three warmed up to her quickly during our meet & greet. I’m so happy we found her!!”

“I can’t say enough about Susannah! This was the first time we’d left our 9 week old puppy and she made it so easy on us. Sent regular updates and the best pictures. Our puppy loves Susannah and we will have her back as much as we can!”

“Kayla was a phenomena sitter!! We needed a sitter for our dog a little last minute and I am thrilled we found Kayla. Kayla was very responsive and communicated well. She sent us updates on our dog throughout the weekend and our home was exactly as we had left it. Even our next door neighbor complimented on her friendliness! I would highly recommend Kayla as a sitter and will definitely reach out to her for our future sitting needs.”

“We expect a lot and Randy delivered. He even took the garbage out! Our dogs seem to really like him and he brought toys that are now favorites. Many pictures and status updates which were very appreciated.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting and fostering with KCPP for over 10 years and truly love caring for animals. While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for pets. References are available upon request! Through the years I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels, medical conditions, and I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. I’m big on following your instructions exactly, as no one knows your furry loved one the way you do. I also have personal experience caring for a senior dog, which taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of paying close attention to comfort, routines, and changing needs. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and understand how important consistency can be, especially for older dogs. Whether your dog loves walks and playtime or prefers a slower pace with extra cuddles and attention, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently work full-time remotely from home, from 6am-2pm. Then I nanny from 3-6pm. The only time I’m unavailable for drop-ins is during my nanny shift from 3-6pm, my full-time job allows me a lot of flexibility. I find it very important to follow a pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep things clean, calm, and consistent. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, medications as needed, and get the right amount of playtime and attention based on their needs and energy level. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality, whether they need extra cuddles, a slower pace, or lots of activity—and I adjust my care accordingly. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs and understand the importance of patience, gentle handling, and monitoring for changes in comfort or behavior. Since I’m new to Rover but have years of dog sitting experience, I take communication seriously and follow instructions carefully while providing updates. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away, while also bringing peace of mind to their owners that their pets are being lovingly and properly cared for.
“Jennifer was fantastic! Bill had a blast with her and she kept the house in great shape. Would highly recommend having Jennifer watch your pets / house!”

“Stephanie was amazing! I have an anxious elderly cat who takes an oral medication every day. She sent multiple updates and photos throughout the stay.”

“Rachel did an amazing job with our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing she was taking such good care of them. We got daily updates, with pictures. She gladly brought in mail and watered plants for us. She is very accommodating and fit us in to her schedule. She was able to pop in for 3 afternoons visits before her time here started when our son wasn’t able to get here during the day to let them out. We will definitely be calling her for future jobs! She’s a gem!!”


“Amina did a wonderful job with our dog and two cats. They needed to be rotated throughout the day because they can’t be in the same room together. I had no worries while I was gone, Amina communicated very well. And when I came home from my trip everybody was in good spirits and the house was clean.”

My kitty Arthur enjoys spending time with Lulu! I’m so thankful that he shows his personality when she is watching him. He is very happy and comfortable in her care. I can enjoy my time away knowing that he is in good hands and have no worries while I am away. Lulu is the best!

Dan was great with our little Nugget. We were on vacation and needed someone to stay with our 19 week old puppy while we went to an event. We hit the jackpot is Dan. We were very comfortable leaving our baby with him and if we ever come back to Lees Summit we’d rebook him again!

It was my first time using Rover and I came across Kayla’s profile. I thought she would be a good fit for my dog Marley and I was right! She did great with him and sent my walk updates along with pictures of him smiling. I left plenty of instructions which she followed 100%. I came home to a happy dog which I owe to her. Highly recommend Kayla!

Mirette was wonderful! She helped us out at the last minute when our original sitter plans didn't work out. She was flexible, reliable, and took great care of our pups. She kept us updated, was great at communication. and respectful of our house. We would trust her with our pups again without any hesitation!

This was my first time using Rover, and my first time leaving my kitties. I was blown away at how wonderful Ashley was! She was so attentive and wonderful with them. She did perfect with the insulin injections for Pedro and made sure he ate, sent me pictures and I swear my house was cleaner than when I left it! I highly recommend her. 🩵
Aaliyah did wonderful with my older pittie when needing someone to watch her last minute. She was reliably on time for visits and took her on plenty of walks. She came by before to meet her and get to know the house. She provided timely updates and responses. Will definitely use Aaliyah again!
