About: I'm a health care worker who will put your pet's safety first! Friends and family rely on me to take care of their dogs while they're away on trips. If your pet needs medicine or special care, I pay careful attention to instructions & make sure your pet is happy & healthy! I'm a phlebotomist by day, so I can take care of your pet in the mornings & evenings! I am a very active person, & will spend quality time with & actually play with your pet -- not just sit around with them. I am more than happy to watch your pet in your own home. I make sure your pet is happy, & treat them like my own.
About: I have taken care of dogs for the majority of my life. I’ve grown up with them in many parts of my family and i’ve also taken care of family-friends animals when needed! I have no problems with providing animals with the care they deserve! I am currently working full time as a Waitress/Bartender! I have three dogs of my own that I take care of during my off time! My schedule does vary week to week, but it can also be flexible! I currently live in an apartment. I love taking my dogs on walks or to the dog parks around town. I also love just sitting outside with them on my porch and enjoying the weather!
About: I have been an active foster parent at a local dog rescue for 5 years. I have fostered more than 10 dogs since volunteering, 2 of which were newborn puppies. I specialize in working with dogs that have anxiety issues. I am currently working full-time so my availability during the week is limited to the evening drop-in visits. My weekends are free to offer reliable sit-in and overnight pet care for your furry friend. I have been trained in Advanced Animal Handling through a local shelter and foster dogs regularly through a local rescue. I have experience working with a number of different pet personalities.
“Kendall was great! She took the best pictures and was so flexible and adaptable! I would 100% book with her again! I knew my pet was in good hands with her, and I never had to worry.”
“Jenna is a real professional that has been wonderful with my 8-month old new puppy. She is punctual, trustworthy and is charges a fair rate. She is working with Brigitte on basic skills. I feel Jenna is a God-send and I am very thankful to have found her!”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on animal care background. I previously worked as a zookeeper, where I cared for many different animal species and was responsible for daily feeding, cleaning, medication administration, and monitoring overall health and behavior. I also helped train animals for medical care, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to recognize signs of stress, discomfort, or illness. On top of that, I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets with special routines, including medication needs, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or structure. Pet care fits really well into my weekly routine. I coach Gymnastics Monday through Thursday, but I have a few open gaps throughout the day that allow me to stop by for check-ins, potty breaks, walks, feeding, and medication if needed. I also have Friday through Sunday off, which gives me much more flexibility for longer visits, extra walks, overnight care, and weekend house sitting. Since my schedule has built-in availability during the week and open weekends, I’m able to give pets consistent attention without feeling rushed. I prefer to watch and care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safe and familiar. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owners' instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, cleaning up after them, and keeping their routine as normal as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort while their owner is away. I also respect the client’s home by keeping things clean, secure, and leaving everything as I found it.
About: I have increased my prices slightly. Pet care should be affordable. No one wants to leave their pet behind and I understand that. While I was in the military I had to leave my dog monthly. The prices were eating me up. I'm here to offer a fair, cheap, short term solution. I ideally work for 5 or less days! M-TH Home 24 hours F-SU Work 14 hour shifts. I try to avoid weekends but I can still host if you're okay with my work schedule. My dog will be kenneled for the first few interactions, your dog will free roam the living room.if the dogs get along they will be supervised in the living room together. If the dogs do not get along in an unsafe manner, I will work with the owner to develop a new plan.
About: I have taken care of all types of animals since I was young. I’ve worked with dogs, cats and farm animals. Nothing will surprise me!! I work as an athletic trainer at a high school. I don’t go into work until 1:30 or 2 pm everyday so why not spend my mornings with your lovely pets! I will take your dog for walks/runs and play with them to get all that energy out. If they are good they will be rewarded with treats (if you prefer them to not have treats then they can be showered with love). If it’s a drop in visit then I will take them to the bathroom and feed them if necessary.
About: I've been working in the dog care industry for at least 10 years! Certified through Animal Behavior College,(abcdt) 2014 and the Council of professional dog trainers (ccpdt) since 2017. I can train your dog or just snuggle them and play with them! I am working towards going full time care taker so that I can build my clientele. As of now I work full time at a doggie day care as their manager and dog trainer and will be decreasing my hours as my clients increase! I can travel to your home or bring your best friend to mine! I have a very large fenced in back yard, and a very friendly dog. A few kennels for rest time as well.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a very long time. I own a cockapoo named BaeLee and she is the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet. I now own 2 dogs: Benito and Bernie. Benito is a Rottweiler mix and Bernie is a lab/pitbull. I adopted both from the shelter and have loved my new additions to my family. I take care of my family’s and friend’s dogs all the time from watching them, playing with them, feeding them, and walking them. I am very good with dogs and can be very patient if I need to be. I love sitting down and working on tricks. Having two puppies has taught me the importance of routine and training but also fun! I take care of my pup daily. From the time I wake up until I go to sleep I am always attentive to her needs. Every now and then I’ll take care of my uncles dog throughout the day and take him out every two hours. I am very nice and patient with animals. I love to pet them and play fetch or tug of war. I do not like to touch other’s things when I go to their houses and I respect their rules. I don’t do what I wouldn’t like done in my home to other’s homes.
About: I come from a farm happy family and managed a doggy daycare, with extensive work in animal rescue. I have dealt with just about any animal you can imagine. Dogs, cats, horses, goats, guinea pigs, fish, snakes, birds, etc. Not only that but I also have two fur baby's of my own, a black lab and a golden retriever. I have had my lab since he was about 2, and my golden retriever I got when she was about 12 weeks old. I love animals and am just looking to fill some of my free time and earn a little extra cash. My lab has since passed due to old age in 2019 but my golden loves the occasional company! I do work M-F and would be out of the home from 715am-5pm. I work full time for a nonprofit in Ottawa, so I am out of the house from 715am-5pm. I love going on walks and being outside before and after work! On the weekends aside from some errands I would be around. I take animal safety very seriously, especially after managing a doggy daycare, things can be unpredictable. I take extreme caution, and pay attention to all the signs your pet is giving me along with your requests to ensure they have a fun, safe time while in my care.
About: Since childhood, I have enjoyed the companionship of dogs. The first family pet I knew for nearly its entire lifetime was our rescue beagle my family adopted when I was about 8 years old. I have pet sat in the past, both overnight/in-home sitting, in addition to drop in visits to feed and let dogs outside for potty time. I have experience caring for senior pets, adults and puppies. I am available to care for your pets during weekday late mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and for overnight stays with your pet(s) as well. I am comfortable crating dogs if necessary and I have some experience caring for dogs with special needs, more specifically senior dogs that have mobility challenges.
About: Hey, I’m Alexis! I’m rather active and would love bringing your fur baby on walks/runs!! I don’t mind coming to check-in to play with, and provide your fur baby with food & water when you need the extra help! I don’t mind housesitting your pet(s) while you’re away. I do not provide doggy daycare, however I do allow you pet (singular) to stay the night at my place for x amt. of nights when you need it. You should be aware if your pet is coming over to my home, that I have an 8mo. old puppy named Lilo (American Eskimo) who loves to hang out and socialize with other animals (I do not allow animals over 15lbs to stay in my home due to my own puppy who is rather small). Thank you for taking your time to read this, and I hope to be of best help to you! If not, I wish you luck in finding a sitter that can! ~ Alexis
About: I’ve had a dog for most of my life, starting as a kid when I begged my family to have one. I’m looking forward to having the opportunity to care for your dog. My work schedule is flexible now, and will have time to give your pet the care and attention they need! I can spend lots of quality time with them. I consider dogs to be members of the family. When I have had my own dog in the past, they were generally rarely alone, always going to work with me and on errands.
About: Hi, I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been surrounded by pets—especially dogs—since day one! I recently got a puppy- a mini dachshund! I use Rover’s puppy sitting services when I am working so figured why not help others on my days off? I grew up with Boston Terriers, volunteered at a local zoo, and have cared for everything from birds and geckos to bearded dragons, chickens, dogs and cats! If it’s got fur, feathers, or scales, I’m all in! I’m always eager to learn more and give every animal the care and love they deserve. 🐾 I work full time 3-4 days a week with a rotating schedule. If I’m working on a day I’m only available in the evening. My off days are pretty flexible and I can be here to help with your pets! I have a fenced in yard at home for my pup. At client’s homes I will make pets feel loved, make sure they get lots of belly rubs and plenty to eat!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and i love them more than anything! That’s probably why i love babysitting other peoples as well it’s so fun and rewarding! Thanks i’m currently working part time and i also have the summers off and available whenever needed. I’m also available on weekends and holidays as well I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have a big open backyard but no fence. I have one indoor cat and one indoor dog
About: I’ve been around dogs since I can remember and always have had the best ones. My family has 2 great danes and a malte-poo. Quite the difference in size but love them all to death! I worked at a dog boarding/play for a year and am a certified dog handler. I’ve pet sitted many times in the past for people on vacation and have dogs of my own so I know a lot about all sorts of dogs. I’m just a college student now so no pets where I live, and hoping to take care of some! I’m a student at Washburn University. I have clinical days this semester on Mondays and Tuesdays! I am able to let out dogs during the day after class and can take the doggies on walks too! For overnight stays, it will be better at my house than to go to yours! I will care for your pets just like my own! Your doggies will be played with and loved on as if they were mine. I can promise you that :)

Hannah is great with my dogs! She is reliable and genuinely enjoys being around them. Hannah goes the extra mile and has cleaned up a messed when they have been sick while I was gone. She reached out after her visit to see how they were doing. I highly recommend Hannah! Thanks for all you do.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Topeka stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Topeka choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Topeka with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 91% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
