“Johemy was amazing with our Daisy! She sent us daily pics, and it was obvious Daisy thrived in her care. Excellent communication from the very start. We would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter! Thank you so much Johemy!”
“Kylie was very patient with me and our pups seemed to be very happy during their week long stay. Daily updates were appreciated and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Kylie in the future. She let our pups live right alongside her family and I definitely appreciate that. Thanks Kylie”
“Debra S really kept us informed about how our dog was and sent us pictures, which was awesome. This was our first time away from our dog since we adopted him in 2017. Excellent experience for both our dog and ourselves. Thank you very much Debra!!! Your awesome! She understood the grumpiness and medical issues our dog had and was patient with him, which was appreciated. Would definitely use her services again and recommend her to our friends.”
“We left our cocker spaniel, Honey with Aurora and her family for a few nights while we were away on a trip. We had the most at peace mind knowing our Honey girl was very well taken care of with pictures and videos! Will definitely be re booking for future trips! Thanks again ☺️”
“My dog was very well taken care of at Eric's. I received pictures throughout my trip which was very reassuring. Eric is pleasant, helpful and easy to work with. He was a very good sitter for my precious dog! I'll use him again.”
“Genuine 5 star review for Karlee. I was traveling through Wichita and had made arrangements with another Rover in town who ended up cancelling on me less than 24 hours before my arrival. I reached out to Karlee who communicated clearly, concisely and very quickly. She really came through for me and I had no question that my pup would be well cared for within minutes of meeting her. House, yard, and fenced yard were perfectly suited for boarding. Highly recommend!”
“Keitel is super friendly, responsive, and lives in a safe and nice neighborhood. I received daily pictures and updates. I will definitely be reaching out next time I have a trip!”
“Misty was my first experience with Rover, and I am so pleased we found her! She was even more accommodating to our situation than was expected, and I so appreciated it! I would highly recommend Misty and will use her again should we need to. Her response time was quick and her communication was just great! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!”
“Roselyn was wonderful! I’ve never used Rover before and was nervous about leaving my boys with someone. She sent many pictures of my babies being spoiled and it made me feel so much better. By the end of my trip I was completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. It’s evident that she really cares about them. I believe Having them in a home environment with someone there to give them attention all day really made the difference of easing any stress they might have been under. We’ll definitely be using Roselyn’s services again!”
“Kate is awesome! Can tell from her dogs’ behavior that she really loves e-mails. Also think she may have a future as an animal photographer cause she took the best shots of my dog!”
“Sasha does a great job watching Peggy for me when I need to go out of town! Peggy loves Sasha and was very excited for her to pick her up for this visit. Sasha makes sure to take good care of Peggy and to give her lots of love ❤️.”
“MK really enjoyed his stay! As a fur-mom it’s very important to have confidence that your sitter will update you on your fur baby stay and how they are adjusting to a new environment. Zhou provided that and beyond. We will definitely be him in our future vacation plans.”
“My puppy came back to me in mint condition. She seemed to be pretty happy, and really enjoyed being around Amber. She will probably be the first person I ask to watch my little Mazie when needed.”
“I felt so comfortable having my pets stay with Shelby! She was extremely understanding and did everything possible to make my pets comfortable while they took a bit to settle into a new space. She was very responsive when I texted her and she gave me plenty of updates and pictures. I could tell in the pictures that my pets really liked her and eventually relaxed”
About: Hello! I've had a variety of pets over my 43 years of life: dogs, cats, hamsters, horses, chickens, goats, rats, a bearded dragon, fish, hermit crabs, snakes, a chinchilla, eta. and absolutely love all animals. I've had experience in taking care of pets in all stages of life and don't mind if they may need a little extra TLC and medical assistance. I also have 2 kids (18 & 19) that both work at the Kansas Humane Society at home and they are also experts in animal care. I currently work from home and have the availability to keep a close eye on your pet baby while giving them a safe, caring and loving environment. We have a big, privacy fenced-in backyard if your pet requires outdoor exercise time. If your pet is a bit stand-offish and prefers a quite space we also have spare bedrooms in the house that they can have all to themselves. Want me to come to you? That's great too! I've been trusted by many families to take care of their babies and don't mind spending a little extra time keeping them company while their owners are away. I hope you like pictures and updates because I will send plenty, unless requested otherwise. We are open to caring for all pets and creatures! We have 4 kids at home so they are sure to get all the love and affection they deserve, if they are into that. If they don't like too much ado, we know how important it is to respect their boundaries as well. Got other species you need care for? Message me for rates and details! I work full time from home and am usually available 7 days a week! Every once in a great while we are might go out of town but that's a rare occasion. We are very flexible to meet you and your pets' needs so you just message me with your preferences and I will make it happen! If you're dog likes to walk down the street but wants to be carried home, no problem! If your bearded dragon wants to be spoon fed baby food, no problem! If your cat likes their wet cat food lightly fluffed with a fork, no problem! If your parrot likes to be groomed by a human tongue.....uh....that's probably where I draw the line. 😁
