“Nicole is the reason I was able to spend a week with my GREAT grandchild whom I’d never met! Knowing Loki wasn’t simply cared for, but loved and treated like one of the family, gave me the peace of mind I needed to do this. He always has such a good time with her kids and dogs… to the point he mopes when he has to come home. As soon as I show him a picture of where he is going he gets excited and wants to grab the leash to go. If that doesn’t say exceptional care.. nothing does! Thank you , Nicole. You will always be my first choice from now on! Y’all are amazing and a perfect fit for a high energy dog whom still thinks he’s a puppy! ❤️”
“Lizmarie was fantastic! It was so great to see pictures and videos of our little Molly through the day. It was so reassuring to see and to know that Molly was so happy and was taken such great care of. Will definitely use her again. Great experience overall!”
“Elizabeth and Christopher were great with our dog Bailey. I got a good feeling about them and their home as soon as I dropped Bailey off. They sent pictures and updates and Bailey was well taken care of. Would definitely use them again if available x”
“Alyssa is the absolute best! She was very communicative, kind, and treated our dog like one of her own. She made sure he was comfortable and well adjusted while we were gone. I especially loved all the pictures and notes she sent of how our dog was doing throughout his stay. We would absolutely book with Alyssa again!!”
“Helen is an absolute joy! I don’t board my dogs very often and she makes them so feel welcome and at home. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. She is very responsive and provides regular updates. It is such a peace of mind for me knowing my dogs are in good hands with such a caring person.”
“Angie did a wonderful job taking care of Molly and Sophie. This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have felt more confident in their care. Angie gave us daily updates and pics which made us not feel guilty for being gone. We could feel easy about being away and would definitely use her again.”
“Erin was great! She was incredibly responsive and made me feel at ease while I was away. I loved getting daily updates and pictures. She clearly took great care of my pet and treated them like her own. I would highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“Brittany and family take such wonderful care of Rose! I really appreciate frequent photos of the dogs playing together and comments about how well Rose is doing. Rose returns home a totally happy and relaxed dog. Best dog sitter I’ve ever had!!”
“This was my first time using Kasey and I could not be happier doing so! Kasey's attention to detail and her willingness to go above and beyond taking care of my senior puppy provided this very anxious pet parent the reassurance that he was in the best hands for his care! Kasey does an amazing job with keeping you up to date with pictures and videos so you can rest assure that everything is going well!”
“Richard was awesome. From the day of our meet and greet I felt very comfortable with him, his wife Serena, and his home environment, and he showed nothing but love and compassion for my puppy. My puppy came home happy and healthy! Our dogs got along great and Richard sent me pictures, video, and we held a couple of Facetime chats. I would absolutely hire Richard again. ”
“We always have peace of mind whenever Moose stays with Stephanie. All those random photos that we received while we were away reassured us that he is happy a great time. I can’t count how many times moose stayed with her, but she’s definitely our go-to gal.”
“Stephanie was quick responder and saved us from a very stressful last minute cancellation from another sitter. She sent lots of pics and updates from the weekend, putting as at ease. Would highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“This was our first time using Rover and I’m so happy we found Griffin! He watched our chihuahua for a week and I think she had a better time on vacation than we did! The kids (and adults) absolutely loved getting the picture/video updates and we so appreciated how they let Tallulah make herself feel right at home. We will definitely be asking for Griffin again next time we travel.”
“This was our first experience using any type of dog boarding service and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Deanna and her husband were AMAZING! They are just great people overall. With daily updates and pictures of the dogs, we never worried about our dogs’ wellbeing. They went above and beyond to accommodate for us and our dogs. We will definitely board our dogs with Deanna in the future!”
“Molly seems to have enjoyed her time with Evelyn and clearly she enjoyed playing hall with the boys. Molly ate her food, which is a sign she was comfortable and not too lonely.”
“Cristina was amazing! This was our first time using Rover so we didn’t know what to expect. Cristina made our three-legged fur baby feel right at home. I really appreciated the picture updates she would send us throughout the stay. Will definitely use again in the future!”
“Response time: 5 stars. Communication: 5 stars. Updates and pic during stay: 5 stars. Overall experience and feeling comfortable with her: 5 starts. Thanks Susan (and family) for accepting 'Bago into your home and treating him as your own. We will certainly use you again and recommend.”

“Here's what's great about Alex, other than the fact that my animals love her. She is the consummate professional - she handles things well, she cares about your pets and home as if they were hers, and she keeps you informed! I'd take Alex at 75% over anyone else at 100%!”
“Highly recommend Lindsey for all your kitty sitter needs. She was amazing watching our shy and quiet kitty. By the end of their time together, they were best of friends. Truly gave us peace of mind.”

We always prefer someone who has experience with cats, and Susan’s experience and love for all animals shone through from even the first meeting. When we had questions after coming home, Susan was responsive and helpful.”

We've returning, and it's the best decision we've made for his socialization and happiness!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was a little girl. I’m the owner of two fur babies with our oldest being with us for the past 13 years. I’m comfortable with taking care of new puppies or senior pets and can administer meds as needed. I’m currently working from home so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby, walking them and playing with them throughout the day. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs, a Pomeranian and a golden doodle who love new friends. I can easily crate your pet if needed.
“Ashlyn was amazing! She has a beautiful home in a beautiful neighborhood that’s close to downtown KC and amazing parks, it was very convenient to drop Snowy off every day while I played in a tennis tournament. She sent photo’s every day, I’ll absolutely book with her again if I’m in town.”
“Jamie was prompt in her response to my initial inquiry and we were able to set up a meet and greet right away. Her home is lovely, clean, and has a fenced in backyard. She spoke so highly of my puppy and it really made me feel like she cared about her. She spent time training her every day and adhered to the schedule I provided for structure. She set up play dates to socialize my puppy as she doesn’t have any pets in her home. She went above and beyond training on concepts I hadn’t introduced to my puppy yet. She was thorough in our initial meet and even recapped with me at the end of the week. Her daily recaps shared so much info about my puppies day and I loved hearing about everything they did together and how much she enjoyed her time with my puppy. Jamie is a stellar caregiver, accommodating of my schedule, loving towards my puppy, and great with communication.”
About: We love dogs, and after a short break while renting, we're thrilled to be back in business now that we once again have a fenced yard and the space to give dogs the care, attention, and spoiling they deserve! We're experienced in administering medications and caring for older dogs or those who need a little extra support, and we're happy to follow your dog's specific routines and care instructions. I work from home on Monday and Friday. My office is 10 minutes away so I can come home at lunch time on Tuesday-Thursday for those who need more frequent potty breaks. I have a fenced backyard with lots of shade for those who prefer prolonged sniffing and lounging. For tiny guests I have an inflatable collar so they can't wander between my metal fence posts. If your dog loves walks, we have quiet neighborhood sidewalks and nearby walking trails. I feed all dogs separately and can provide a separate area for a dog who may be feeling uncomfortable with other guests. I have experience giving medications, shots, and caring for older dogs or those who need a little extra support.

About: I am available for drop ins over the holidays! I have spent my entire life around animals! I have extensive experience with cats, dogs, and horses, as well as some experience with small pets, including rabbits, ferrets, and aquarium animals. I am certified in Cat & Dog first aid through the Red Cross, and I have previously worked full-time at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, so I have plenty of experience with all different types of dogs. I am also comfortable administering oral and topical medications, and have limited experience with injected medications. My schedule tends to be very flexible; however, I appreciate requests made well in advance. Please be aware that on a typical day I am ONLY available in the mornings and evenings, not at midday. I have experience taking care of many anxious pets, so I always work hard to make sure that each animal is as comfortable and happy as they can be! During walks, that means sniffing if they want to sniff and running if they want to run. I do not interact with other dogs or people on walks, no matter the friendliness/reactivity level of your dog, to keep yours as safe as possible.

When caring for pets, their safety and comfort are my top priority. I follow each owner’s instructions closely to maintain their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest.

Specialties: I have a soft spot for shy or nervous pets, and I take extra care to follow their lead and let them warm up at their own pace. My experience caring for my own anxious and reactive dog has given me extra understanding for pets who need a predictable environment and time to build trust. I am also experienced with puppies and young dogs, and I understand the importance of consistency, routine reinforcement, and providing outlets for their energy while they’re still learning. Meet & Greet: I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet with new clients to make sure everyone feels comfortable and that we are a good match.

“This is my first time ever using a dog service app. My search was short notice. I am forever grateful for Ms. Lindsey and her compassion for animals. I was very upfront to Ms. Lindsey for everything. I even got home early, therefore she was not able to walk my second. However, because it was short notice, and I’ll invest money into my babies, I did not care about the second walk or paying for it. For a person like me to have trust issues, is not easy to have strangers come into my house with animals that have never had a chance to defend themselves. Ms. Lindsey was so kind, etc. that I felt as ease with her coming in. I EXTREMELY recommend her. I am also disabled and will use Ms. Lindsey in future services from her. A shout out to you Ms. Lindsey and thank you to Rover that helps the community in big ways! 🫶🏼💕🐶🤙🏽👍🏽🙏🏽”

I’m very comfortable with both large and small dogs, energetic dogs, and puppies. I also have experience around litters of puppies since one of my dogs had puppies multiple times while I was growing up, so I’m used to younger dogs and all the energy that comes with them. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether that’s playing, going on walks, giving attention, or just making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m very patient, responsible, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m a college student home for break, so I have a very flexible schedule and lots of free time. I just ask for 3 days notice for changes! I have two big dogs at home, so I’m very comfortable with active dogs and daily care routines. I love playing, cuddling, feeding, and keeping pets active and comfortable.

“Kaylan has helped care for our dog for months now and has been wonderful! He looks forward to his mid-day walk and she gives great updates each time she sees him! Highly recommend 😊”
About: I am a 30 year old lover of all dogs and would love to help care after your pups when you're vacationing, busy, or don't have the energy to get your pup out to play or walk. I have had at least one dog for as long as I can remember and have been raising my own dog(s) for 7 years now! I would love the opportunity to get to know your furry family members and help them feel comfortable when you aren't able to be with them. Help me fill my want of more pups by letting me care for your pups while you're away, busy for the day, or accompany them on a walk during the day. I look forward to hearing from you all! :) I work remote so have a lot of flexibility to come and go when needed to care for dogs and cats throughout the day or evening! Leashes will always be used when a fence is not available to provide safety for your dog(s). Happy to accommodate your specific preferences as well!
About: My family has had cats my entire life and we got our first dog when I was 10. When I became old enough I began volunterring at Wayside Waifs and did that for about 3 years where I would go and walk dogs of all different behaviors and backgrounds. I have 2 cats and I love them so so much. Just as most pet parents know, they are my babies and I feel that our fur babies should be given all of the love and affection that they so selflessly give us. I am a full time student but my class schedule is pretty lax this semester and I also nanny part-time. This allows me a good deal of flexibility to walk dogs as well as do check-ins and house sit when needed. I know all of the good spots for doggy adventures about town that are safe and fun because of my family’s dog, and I am very adaptable to whatever pets need thanks to my experience at Wayside Waifs.
“Emily went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable since we are new to having a dog walker. Emily’s updates and pictures were fantastic. Cyrus loved her snuggles and pets! He was nice and tired after a 2 mile walk.”

“Nicole is the reason I was able to spend a week with my GREAT grandchild whom I’d never met! Knowing Loki wasn’t simply cared for, but loved and treated like one of the family, gave me the peace of mind I needed to do this. He always has such a good time with her kids and dogs… to the point he mopes when he has to come home. As soon as I show him a picture of where he is going he gets excited and wants to grab the leash to go. If that doesn’t say exceptional care.. nothing does! Thank you , Nicole. You will always be my first choice from now on! Y’all are amazing and a perfect fit for a high energy dog whom still thinks he’s a puppy! ❤️”

“This was my first time using Kasey and I could not be happier doing so! Kasey's attention to detail and her willingness to go above and beyond taking care of my senior puppy provided this very anxious pet parent the reassurance that he was in the best hands for his care! Kasey does an amazing job with keeping you up to date with pictures and videos so you can rest assure that everything is going well!”
“Richard was awesome. From the day of our meet and greet I felt very comfortable with him, his wife Serena, and his home environment, and he showed nothing but love and compassion for my puppy. My puppy came home happy and healthy! Our dogs got along great and Richard sent me pictures, video, and we held a couple of Facetime chats. I would absolutely hire Richard again. ”
“This was our first experience using any type of dog boarding service and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Deanna and her husband were AMAZING! They are just great people overall. With daily updates and pictures of the dogs, we never worried about our dogs’ wellbeing. They went above and beyond to accommodate for us and our dogs. We will definitely board our dogs with Deanna in the future!”
“Molly seems to have enjoyed her time with Evelyn and clearly she enjoyed playing hall with the boys. Molly ate her food, which is a sign she was comfortable and not too lonely.”
“Cristina was amazing! This was our first time using Rover so we didn’t know what to expect. Cristina made our three-legged fur baby feel right at home. I really appreciated the picture updates she would send us throughout the stay. Will definitely use again in the future!”
“Response time: 5 stars. Communication: 5 stars. Updates and pic during stay: 5 stars. Overall experience and feeling comfortable with her: 5 starts. Thanks Susan (and family) for accepting 'Bago into your home and treating him as your own. We will certainly use you again and recommend.”
“The boys had a great home (& backyard!) to play in while I was gone. I got a reassuring “they’re doing great” message a few hours after I’d dropped them off, and Michelle (and her mom) were wonderful pet caregivers. Mine came home happy & worn out from playing.”
“Danielle and her family always take the very best care of Frankie! He literally gets excited and can’t wait to see them when we pull up to their home for drop off. Frankie feels at home when he is there, which gives us great peace of mind!”
“I am deeply grateful to Nate for the exceptional care he provided to our pet Bjorn. He is also very flexible with timings. Bjorn always enjoys spending time at his home.”
“Bo was worn out (in a good way) after getting to play all weekend with Tori’s family. Thank you for taking great care of him! I will call on you the next time we are in Kansas City.”
“Highly recommend! This was our fist time leaving our dog with anyone. Andrea was excellent, she kept us posted of his wellbeing via text, photos and videos. Grizzly looked well taken care of and happy. Will definitely reach out to her again.”
“Lucy was amazing with my Golden retriever, Chip! She provided photo updates daily, a meet and greet before booking, and even accommodated us when we had an unexpected travel delay. We will definitely be booking her again!”
