“This was my first time using Rover and Mya made the experience amazing! I will definitely be using her again. My dog is very shy and not good with strangers but Mya took her time to be patient and calming. My dog started warming up to her very fast and I belive dogs have a good judge of character ;)”

“Kate was wonderful! Our cat Myla was very well taken care of, as was our home. She kept in touch providing detailed information about Myla and her status. Being an older cat, sometimes small details can be very important. She went above and beyond and we are very grateful to her. Can't wait to have her watch Myla again!”
“Jacki has watched our girl multiple times this past year. She is always on time, gives wonderful updates, and does the little things that are above and beyond! We appreciate her so much and always know our girl is in good hands when we are gone!”

About: I have pet sat for many friends and family with multiple levels of care, multiple ages and breeds. I have multiple years in the pet industry growing my love and care experience to more than just dogs and cats. Also worked closely with multiple shelters in Kansas City during this time in the pet industry. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to play and care for your pets! Lots of love, walks, and playtime to give. If you just need a quick check in or a longer walk with play time I am your girl! I will be offering services for walking and pet care in the pet parents home. I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby and build strong relationships.
“Highly recommend Meggie, she took such good care of my pup. My dog is a senior and she was very supportive of his age and asking about specifics when it came to his diet. Lots of walks for my dog and good conversations that made me feel comfortable while I was away. Reliable and responsible.”

“Connie is so great with my fur babies and they love her so much. She is very respectful and helpful to me and my girls.(Roselee and Marley). She works with my 2yr old lab Roselee (who thinks she still a little puppy) and throws the ball for her till she’s worn out. I couldn’t imagine not having her in our lives.”

“Caitlin was wonderful at taking care of my two spoiled enormous dogs! This is the first time we've used a pet sitter and we will be using Caitlin's services in the future. The dogs were more relaxed being at home and frankly I was relaxed on vacation. She gave them medicine they needed and kept us updated with lots of pics and it was truly a great experience.”

“Autumn has watched our dog over a long weekend at her home and dropped in to let our dog out while we were out of town for the day. She always sends us pictures and keeps us updated on how she’s doing. She does a great job!”

“Delaney was great with my dog, she made sure to meet him before letting him out for the days I needed help, which I really appreciated. She was great with communication and with my dog. I am thankful and definitely recommend!”

“If there was 10 stars I’d give them. She is very kind, responsive, and is great with all my animals ! My animals are a bit misbehaved and she did amazing and gave me feedback the entire time. I would 110% recommend!”


About: I've worked in the field of caring for others for a long time..babies, special needs, elderly, dogs, you name it! I have fostered several dogs and even a cat! I have also had cats in the past. I have also owned and helped care for friends lizards, snakes, guinea pigs, etc. I'll be devoted to providing the best care and fun for your pup as I can!

I like to stay busy and I love meeting and helping new and returning pets. :) I am flexible when caring for dogs in your home and can meet you where you’re at as long as it’s possible! I have crates for both of my dogs so I would be able to rotate caring for pets if they were to stay in my home.

Sterling Acres pet parents share their Rover experiences
I had a great experience with Jessica and would absolutely book with them again. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my cat’s comfort and well-being. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My cats were happy and well cared for when I returned, and everything was left clean and tidy. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!

I've used Michaela for years now and and not only do I trust her with my 4 cats, but my house as well. This last trip took 10 days and not only did she come in and feed, water, clean litter boxes, but also brought them new toys and treats, and made sure my house was presentable for prospective buyers.
