1. Debbie A.
“My sister and I contacted Debbie the morning of our planned arrival into Wichita. Debbie quickly responded to our dog sit inquiry. She was flexible with meeting up with us as our travels did cause a delay in our arrival time. Daisy dog was excited to meet Debbie, which is always a good sign. Debbie walked Daisy a couple of times in the two and a half hours that my sister and I were away. Debbie texted me pictures and updates on what they were doing during the evening. When we returned to our Drury Plaza hotel room, Daisy was well brushed and happy. We thank Debbie for working with us on this doggie sit and highly recommend her to others.”

“Ari watched my two pitties overnight and was gracious enough to do a meet and greet ahead of time so they could get to know her. She did an awesome job and my dogs were happy! I definitely plan on using her again.”
3. Linda A.
“Linda is a true animal lover. She bonded immediately with our orange tabby. She was even able to bond with our timid, young tuxedo kitty. Her love of animals is felt by our furry friends. I highly recommend Linda as a pet sitter. We're going to use her again. The kitties miss her already!”
4. Taylor W.
About: Hi there! I’m Taylor! I am a full time social worker, working with foster care kiddos & kiddos with juvenile offense charges. I’m passionate about community care, you can usually find me reading about how to implement it or volunteering with organizations here in Wichita that already are! Outside of that, I like to hang out with my cats and help folks take care of their animals while they’re out experiencing life! I have over five years of pet care experience, plus pets of my own, so you can rest assured that your babes are safe with me. Luckily, I have a pretty flexible work schedule so I can be working from home and spending time with your pets, or dropping in as needed. I know pet care can be expensive so I try to work with you on rates. Just message me to set up a meeting time! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I work part-time and attend school full-time, stopping by the house to hang out and play with animals or take them for a walk wouldn’t be any conflict in those times as they are super flexible. My job understands that dog sitting and walking are important to me and will help me flip some shifts around to make it happen, if needed! I don’t have a fenced in yard but I take my dogs to a fenced in dog park everyday so they have plenty time to run around and socialize. I’m sure to take extra snacks and water when we go, sometimes they get really tired and those always help. If it’s way too cold to go to the park, because one of them refuses to go out without her coat and boots in that weather, I will make sure to walk them until they let me know they’re done and then we head home to warm up and spend time together.

She goes above and beyond to ensure their well-being, providing not just basic care but also companionship and love. Kyra is trustworthy, reliable, and always attentive to the needs of the animals in her care. I have complete confidence in her abilities, and I wholeheartedly endorse her to anyone looking for a dedicated pet caregiver.”
7. Kylee F.
“Kylee was amazing! I don’t think we could have had anyone better to watch over our pups. She left the house just as we left it, and went above and beyond to watch our dogs. She was very kind, kept us updated and treated our dogs the best. We would hire her over and over again.”
8. Janette D.
“Janette did a great job watching my pups! She sent photos and communicated daily. And my home was in at cleaner when she left than when she arrived!!”
9. Ingrid B.
“Absolutely phenomenal!!! This was my husband and my first time having a dog/house sitter. We met Ingrid months before we booked her. Our 3 dogs were 100% at ease with her from the start. Ingrid put me at ease from the start as well. As any dog mom I was nervous about leaving my babies, not because of Ingrid. But because we never leave our babies. This was our first vacation since 2019. I could not recommend Ingrid more!!! She makes you feel like you're leaving your babies and home with friends or family. Ingrid was the perfect choice for us and we will definitely choose her again. Thank you Ingrid!”
10. Ellen W.
“Ellen was awesome! I reached out last minute and she was able to make it work with her schedule. She gave me updates daily with pictures and was super responsive. Will definitely put her on my rebook list.”
11. Mya S.
“I’m always so anxious about leaving my dog for vacations, but he was in GREAT hands! Mya’s communication was top tier, she even sat with my dog to make sure he ate when he was being finicky, and I was just all around impressed. I can’t say enough how grateful I am that I was able to be worry free about my baby boy while I was on vacation.”
12. Kary & Myranda S.
“Kary went above and beyond for our pups. She sent lots of updates and came to our house to meet our dogs to ensure it would be a good fit and go over our routines. Kary is wonderful!”
13. Emilee E.
“Emilee did such a fabulous job caring for our kitties! She played with them and spoiled them even more with treats. She treated them as if they were her own. She checked in frequently, communicated well, and sent plenty of photos and videos. You can tell she’s passionate about what she does and trust her with your fur babies!”

16. Cali M.
“We have always left our "kids" with close, trusted friends or family when going away on a trip. None of them were available this time and we needed a new resource. We had heard of Rover so we tried it. This was a true leap of faith for us, but we were not disappointed . Cali took great care of WallyP and MinnieT, sending daily videos, pics, and updates. She was very responsive, prompt, and gracious and we appreciate her very much. We will ask her to watch our kids again and it's a relief to have someone like Cali when we need to get away. Thanks Cali!”

20. Haley J.
“Haley did an amazing job taking care of my 2 pups. She is very nice, attentive, and great communicator. She texted me updates & pictures of my dogs while I was away. Loved that! This was my first time using Rover and hiring a pet/house sitter, so I was quite nervous, but after meeting her during the meet & greet, I knew my dogs and my house were in good hands. I would highly recommend Haley and I do plan on using her again for future trips if she is available.”
