“A fantastic sitter who truly goes above and beyond. During a storm, a tree blocked our road, and she and her partner helped clear it—an incredibly kind and unexpected gesture. She also took the initiative to restock our dog food, which saved us a trip after a long vacation. The dogs were happy and well-cared for, and we loved the photo updates. We'll definitely be booking with her again! Both of these options highlight the incredible things Lillian did, focusing on her proactive nature and the peace of mind she gave you. They also end on a positive note that makes it easy for other dog owners to see why she's a great choice.”



“Nicolas responded promptly to communications and did what we'd asked, even dealt with a rather complicated feeding process with grace! As a bonus, he was even already familiar with Litter Robots. Thanks for taking good care of our pets while we were away.”


“You can definitely trust Marlie to take great care of your dog! She sends us lots of pictures and our dog always seems stress free when Marlie takes care of her! Would highly recommend!”


“Casey was awesome with our dogs! She had wonderful communication with us and we could see that our dogs were well taken care of when we came back. Looking forward to working with her again in the future!”


“Camryn was wonderful caring for our pups at our place. We were out of town for a wedding for 4 days and you wouldn't even have known anyone was at our place. I would highly recomend having Camryn look after your home and/or dogs.”



About: Hello everyone, I recently graduated from the University of Michigan school of Dentistry and just began my residency here in Kansas City. As a double Wolverine, Go Blue!! Growing up I had a German Shephard and have two Yorkies although they currently live with my parents. I miss them every day so I am looking to direct my love and care towards your lucky dog(s)! I have dog sat for friends and family before and work regularly for Wag maintaining a 5-star rating. I have had plenty of people tell me I am very good with dogs, which inspired me to get involved with providing these sort of services for local dog owners. I am a fairly athletic individual so I enjoy playful dogs and am willing to put in the work to make sure they get the exercise they need. Additionally, I love making sure all dogs receive sufficient affection to aid their emotional development. Our furry friends positively contribute to uplifting our mental health, so I believe they deserve to be held in such importance and treated with respect. Sincerely, Torrey My residency will keep me busy 9-5 every day. I have no problem staying at your residence, having done many house sittings throughout my care career. I typically let my pupper visitors sleep or hang out wherever I am as long as they do no shed profusely and it aligns with their home experience.

“Janelle was great and we look forward to booking with her again soon! This was her first time staying with our pups and she took great care of them. Almost positive they were hoping it was her instead of us when we got home :)”



“One of our best experience on Rover with Rachel! She took care of our cats so well and even kept the house in perfect shape while we were out for a long vacation. I would totally recommend her for any of your house stays or visits. She's timely, organized and very particular about giving medicines, treats or even playing with your kitties. ❤️”


“Katelyn did a wonderful job taking care of our elderly dog while we were away for a long weekend. She was very diligent and we had clear communication throughout. I highly recommend her for pet sitting.”



“Super communicative and made our pets feel comfortable. It seems they really loved her and it gave me such peace of mind to know they were well cared for. Would hire again.”


“This was our first experience using a pet sitter and Tierra took care of our pets exactly as we do. She promptly answered all communications and sent picture which reassured us while we were away.”

“Alyssa was great with my dog! She was very responsive and started the process of meeting my dog right away. She sent me pictures pretty much every day I was away and I can tell my dog was well taken care of. On top of that, she was a courteous guest and my house was cleaner than I left it.”


“Kennedy did a great job with four big, energetic dogs-even the timid one likes her! She took care of them over a weekend. She communicated well and kept everything clean. I would definitely book with her again.”


“Ivanis did everything this rather nervous owner asked. She even made two trips to get familiar with Piper and everything went well. I recommend without hesitation.”


“Candice did a fantastic job with my pup Bo. By the pictures sent to me he appeared to be having a blast. Once she left he was one tired pup. He went to the bedroom to lay down and I hardly heard a peep out of him the rest of the day/night. Thanks for making his day fun!”


“Lily kept our sweet dog in our home and did a great job. She sent pics and kept us updated. We felt so relieved to have found her and had a great trip knowing our dog was in such good hands. Would highly recommend her.”


“Ronnie was the best! He housesat our dog Goose for a week and watched over my two kitties. He kept everything organized, sent frequent pics, and left the house cleaner than it was when he got here. Super trustworthy and communicative and spent so much time with our pup while we were away. Thank you Ronnie!”
