Personalized care for your dog or cat - Goddard
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Goddard
“As soon as we were going out of town we knew right away we wanted our Honey girl to stay with Aurora and her sweet family! Aurora is quick to send updates with pictures and quick to respond. When we go pick up honey from her stay, she is so well taken care of and tired out from a good time. ☺️”
“Our dogs love Sam! They’ve stayed before, and will hopefully be back soon! I have absolutely no worries when we leave our babies in her care. Thanks so much, Sam!”
“Zhou was amazing with our dog Kylo! We needed someone last minute to watch him…he responded immediately to our request and was great!! He sent us the cutest pics through his stay! Highly recommend and will use Zhou again!”
“Debbie and family did a fantastic job with Murphy. He slept for two days when he got home as he played so much. Will most certainly be using Debbie and family again!”
“Dennis took care of our dog, Kuna, for the second time and it was a 10-day stay. He took excellent care of her! It is obvious that she loves to go to his house as she gets excited when she sees us packing her bags to go. He has a great routine for her and takes her on walks. He communicates with us and sends pics and updates while we are gone. I highly recommend him.”
“Keitel was great and the dogs really enjoyed the family time away from their family. Keitel communicated early and often and ensured everything was understood before drop-off. I appreciate that so we can all be prepared for a new sitter. AND the dogs were well taken care of with regular pictures and updates.”
“Kelly did an awesome job taking care of our two Cavaliers! She has a very dog-friendly home and yard. She sent me several photo updates every day to ensure that my pups were comfortable and having a good time. I hope to use Kelly again in the future and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Samantha was great watching my cats last minute. She ensured they had a cooldown space and company when they were ready. On top of all that, she’s just super cool person.”
“Kyndal had a great time with Cheryl! When I picked her up, you could tell she had been very well taken care of & SO happy. I will be booking with Cheryl again in the future!”
“Kylee was amazing!! We have 2 high energy dogs and she handled them beautifully, lots of attention and activity. She was communicative and very easy to work with. Definitely recommend!!”
“Chloe is the best. This is the first time I've used. Rover.com, so I was a little nervous. Chloe put me at ease and my cat loved her. I would definitely leave Sadie with her again.”
“Jeffery was reasonably priced, prompt in replying and communicated well what to expect. He was very kind and seemed to let Abigail get comfortable at her own speed as she's never stayed with anyone other than 2 or 3 immediate family members. Jeffrey sent pictures as promised and had her packed and ready to go when i picked her up. This was my first time using Rover and very relieved to find Jeffery! I hope he agrees to keep her should the need arise in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and friends’ dogs since I was a child. I’ve also trained my own. We love dogs of all breeds! I work from home with a flexible schedule and my dog is with me all day. Kennel trained is preferred in case I do leave the house. My own dog, Olivia, loves to play with dogs of all sizes! She has a fenced in area to get her zoomies out or play fetch. She also loves walks and car rides. She is kennel trained and often in there if I leave the house for long periods. I have a camera on in this room so I can peep at her! I would provide this same love and care for your pet. We do have a cat, Stormi, who couldn’t care less what is going on in her house. She stays in her own zone!
“Thank you for taking care of our 2 girls, Ron! They had never stayed away from home and didn’t have much socializing beforehand. Ron was patient and understanding. He sent pictures and updates to let us know they were behaving and having a good time. When we picked them up, I don’t think they wanted to leave!”
“Kylie was great with our dog who was a little nervous at first being left in a different environment and meeting new doggie friends and a cat. Kylie took the time to let her get comfortable. Will definitely use her again”
“Brittney did a great job communicating and had all of our dog’s stuff nicely packed for pickup. She’s got a huge fenced in yard that would be great to run around in. She was really sweet and our dog seemed to really like her. Would definitely book with Brittney again!”
“Darian was absolutely amazing with my dog Baxter. He stayed w her for a few nights while I was out of town and had a great time. She sent frequent updates, pics, and videos. She even sent him home with some goodies! Will definitely be using again in the future”
““She was amazing! Took the best care of my dog, sent updates regularly, and it truly felt like he was treated as one of her own for the whole week. I could not have asked for a better experience or better individual to leave my dog with for a week!””

She is the best pet sitter I've had far best, definitely will ask her to pet sit again in a second.”
“Mandy did a great job taking care of my cats and was very kind and helpful. Communication was great as well. would highly recommend Mandy as your pet sitter, and I will definitely be using Mandy again in the future!”
“I still can’t believe how much our senior dog loves Morgan. And he doesn’t love anyone! She gets the best photos of them, is always great at communicating with us, and seems to love them as her own! We couldn’t recommend Morgan enough.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Goddard
“Zhou took excellent care of our two dogs, Mochi and Chipotle, for two nights, three days while we were away. From the beginning, he was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure they were comfortable and happy. He made sure they were fed, walked, and well cared for, and he kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was clear our dogs were in good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with Zhou again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”
“On the days when I have lots of errands to run it’s nice to give our pup an afternoon with other dogs. Mike and Debbie were great with her and I’m looking forward to doing it again!”
“Brittney is awesome! She totally put me at ease when leaving my puppy Grace in Daycare for the first time. She made sure Gracie had time to adjust before introducing her to the resident dogs. She provided me with updates during the day. Gracie wanted to go with Brittney the second day so drop off was easy. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare and volunteered at the humane society- I have also had dogs and cats for 17 years of my life! Currently, I have purposely left my schedule completely open for pet care during the week. I am available day or night, 7 days a week. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog in my home. I am very good at reading dog body language and knowing their limits while caring for them.
“Veronica provides a safe, cosy place for dogs to stay when they can’t go with their owner, and my dog Bear was treated like family. Bear is almost 14 years old and not interested in playing, but he got along well with Veronica’s gentle dog, who Veronica carefully introduced to him. He likes to be with people, and he was so comfortable with Veronica that he relaxed at my feet when she and I chatted, instead of pulling me out the door. Veronica was very careful to help Bear negotiate around her house, as he doesn’t see well, and she was clever in making sure he could safely go out. Bear says he would go back anytime and I can heartily recommend Veronica to care for beloved pets.”
About: I grew up in a pet loving family, we always had at least 5 fur babies! I loved having the responsibility of caring for them by myself. I would sometimes bring them over to my neighbors for play dates, I could teach them tricks and play with them all day. I am always home or going for walks, and having a pet by my side always makes my day better. From running around outside to laying on the couch watching a movie having a pet with me always makes it so much more fun! No pet is the same, I adapt to what the pet wants. If it’s an energetic puppy i’ll be energetic if, it’s a relaxed elderly pet i’ll relax with it, they all get the care and environment they will need.
About: I have owned 4 dogs and treat each one like family. My little one goes with me about everywhere I go. I love to walk dogs for good exercise. I'm currently working from home so I have my own schedule. Weekends are great too. You're furry friend will have plenty of good loving fun. I have a fenced area and dog run to let your beloved dog run and play. I also like taking my own dog to the dog park to meet and greet other pets.

“My family and I are very glad that we found Keitel to care for Goldendoodle (Meelo). As dog lovers, we always wants to ensure that our fur buddy is taken care off in our absence. Keitel check all the blocks and exceed our expectations. Keitel is not only great with dogs but also very knowledgeable with them. Keitel afford my wife and I the opportunity to meet him in advance for us to ensure that the environment was suitable for our Goldendoodle. Throughout the stay, Keitel and his family treated Meelo as if he was his own. We received regular updates and pictures of Meelo and his new favorite family. Meelo was pampered and well taken care of and our mind was at ease. We can’t wait to rebook you again. I highly recommend Keitel to anyone looking for a doggie day care.”
“Cheryl was wonderful with Dixie and Luna. She had plenty of fenced yard for them and even welcomed them into her house and bed to watch tv🤣. She also sent plenty of pictures which always helps when you’re away from your babies. I would not hesitate to take them to her again.”
About: I currently work as a zookeeper and have years of wild and domestic animal experience. Working with wild animals means I have a much deeper understanding of animal husbandry, psychology, and behavior that allows me to provide better care for your pet! I'm especially comfortable around and handling large dogs due to the nature of my job. Professionally, I have cared for a variety of wild animals including large cats like lions, tigers, and leopards, dolphins, seals and sea lions, and several canid species. That being said, I'm able to provide a deeper level of personalized care. I currently work 5 days a week, usually Wednesday-Sunday. On my weekend, I'm home all day. On my workdays, I'm able to leave during lunch to provide dogs with potty breaks. There is a dog park within walking distance of my apartment that I bring my dogs to every morning and evening. I do also have a dog potty set up inside my apartment just in case a dog can't wait for me to get home. I provide this because I personally wouldn't make myself hold it, so I would never force a dog to do the same. I provide a very safe, relaxing environment where your dog will be treated like family. I approach care with a proactive approach, rather than reactive. This means I always keep a close eye on individual pet behavior as subtle cues can indicate how a pet is feeling at a given moment. Many pet owners miss out on these cues, especially if they aren't trained to look for them. Overall, this means I try my best to create a safe environment for and trusting bond with any animal I work with via positive reinforcement and never push past an individual's limits.
“Linda took great care in reviewing and understanding the needs of my pup. We did a brief introduction to be sure her pets and mine would get along and I was very comfortable leaving him with her. They took several walks so he would settle and he was relaxed when I picked him up. Will definitely be booking again! Thanks Linda!”
“I cannot tell you how happy I was with Jamie and her family. I came for state track meet from Texas and needed a place for my doodle to go for the day. Jamie sent me videos of him having fun and napping. I felt so relaxed and able to enjoy my day knowing Jack was having the best day. At meet and greet I knew she would spoil my Jack! Thank you so much Jamie. I cannot say enough wonderful things about you!!”

About: I have been a vet tech for 10 years. It is my passion. I had a disabled boxer so I am familiar with need to help disabled pets. I currently share custody of an energetic border collie. My 14 year old daughter loves to assist me when caring for your pet, please let me know if that is okay. I do work full time. If the pet is staying at your house, time permitting, I will check on them before work, lunch, and spend time after work with them. I will treat every pet as if they are mine. I normally feed twice a day and go outside as often as possible; weather permitting of course. If anything seems off, I have experience and a clinic I can take them too if needed.

About: For over 10 years, I loved and cared for my own beloved dogs before they passed away a few years ago, and for the past 4 years, I have been occasionally sitting for my neighbor's dog. I have a 6-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son who share my deep love for animals, so your pup will get plenty of gentle affection and enthusiastic playtime from our family! In our home, your fur baby will have a secure, fenced yard to explore. Whether they prefer high-energy fun or just lounging around and getting belly rubs, we adapt to whatever makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I am a Special Education teacher currently on summer break, which means I have a highly flexible schedule and open availability! My own children are in summer camp Monday through Friday during the day, giving me plenty of dedicated, uninterrupted time to focus entirely on your pet's routine, walks, and care. I am available for boarding and daytime companionship, ensuring your fur baby gets plenty of attention and love. As a SPED teacher, I bring patience, structure, and deep reliability into my pet care. I offer a very secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe playtime. Because my husband works night shifts and sleeps during the day, our home maintains a wonderfully calm, quiet, and peaceful atmosphere during the daytime hours—perfect for dogs who get stressed by loud noises. In the evenings and weekends, my 6 and 7-year-old children join the fun, and they are incredibly gentle and respectful animal lovers. Your pet will receive 100% of our family's care and focus!

“First time Rover user, Zhou went above and beyond my expectations. Prompt and professional. Handled all 3 of my large dogs with ease. Will definitely use Zhou in the future. 5 star rating!”
“Ari is great! She was kind, communicative, punctual, and took excellent care of my pups. She is obviously a natural with dogs. We even had a broken collar situation while I was at work and she found the harnesses and made the walk happen. I highly suggest hiring her to care for your animals. Thank you, Ari!”
About: I have a huge heart for pets & animals in general - I have been drawn to them since I can remember! Growing up I used to assist our local vet with surgery prep and wound care. I realized I was meant more for the "loving" of animals rather than the "medical care" when vaccinations or other scary things happened - all I could do was comfort the pet! I have cared for almost every kind of pet there is, and I enjoy giving Moms & Dads the peace of mind I know that I need when I am busy or out of town. I work in West Wichita (my office IS pet friendly if your pup has the right temperament) and my hours are Mon-Thurs from 8am-5pm, and Fridays 8am-3pm. This limits my ability for mid-day stop ins during the week, but I am fully available in the mornings, evenings, and all weekend hours. All pet care routines are different! Since the level of care required can vary greatly from family to family, I offer a few different "versions" of each service, and modify my rates according to time/effort committed. Please reach out if you have a hybrid (drop-in/house-sit/boarding) request - if we are a good match I am confident we can find the right arrangement for your pets needs. I recognize that your fluff-butts are part of your family, and pride myself on the ability to make them feel loved and comfortable while in my care. Photos & videos are consistently sent along with scheduled updates - you will NEVER have to wonder if your pet is happy with me! If booking a longer stay, I prefer to iron out all details of your request with an hourly schedule so there is no room for confusion or misunderstanding. It is my first priority to make sure pet parents know that their baby is in the best hands so they can enjoy their time apart.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds, and even reptiles. Growing up with so many different animals taught me how to understand their unique personalities and care for their individual needs. As an adult, I’ve owned and cared for two German Shepherds, along with cats, and I know the love, patience, and responsibility that come with being a pet parent. My pets have always been part of the family, and I will treat your pets with the same kindness, attention, and respect that I give my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, feeding, cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work from home and am easily able to fit pet care into my day on breaks and lunch hour, as well as afterward. This provides me plenty of time to provide service. I have a German Shepherd male dog as well as a female tabby cat. I live outside of the city so I will not be offering boarding services, but travel to Wichita surrounding areas daily. Would be happy to provide care in home care and dog walks.
About: I learned everything I know about pet-care at the vet I worked with many years ago. There my love and passion for animal…especially dogs… grew. It was also there that I learned cats are not my favorite. 🥴 Though I learned a lot from my time working at the vet, I realized that seeing animals suffering or in pain was not something I could do on a daily basis. That realization led me to this job. In my spare time I enjoy my community at Life.Church. Service there has taught me the importance of consistency and reliability. I was recently given a new mental diagnosis, and having my community, my family and my therapist surround me with love and support has been life-changing for me. I would love to get to know you and your furry family members! Because this is my full-time job, I have open availability, and would love to help with scheduled or drop-in visits. Please just leave written instructions that I can recall later, as your pup will not be my only furry client I will need to care for. I have loved dogs ever since I can remember. While I do enjoy my work as a house sitter, watching and caring for dogs is what brings me the most purpose. I have experience with big and little dogs, so whether you have a golden retriever or a Shih Tzu, rest assured, they will be well taken care of.
About: I have always grown up with pets! From cats to dogs to hamsters, everything between! I currently have two cats of my own that are my entire world so I know what it feels like to trust others to take care of your fur babies :) I do work full time, but I am available early mornings, late evenings, and full availability on weekends to hangout with any and all friends! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home. I’ll stick to your pet’s schedule, keep things neat, send plenty of updates, and make sure your furry friend gets all the love and attention they deserve while you’re gone.

About: I have done rescue work for dogs. I actually have two dogs of my own one. I saved from the Humane Society and one I saved for a rescue who is going to be put to sleep for no reason. I am currently not working so I would be home all of the time with them. They would get all the attention in the world. We have a a fenced in backyard that they would be able to run around in and the cats would be kept inside and fed. What food daily if you please. I have a fenced in backyard and two very very friendly dogs who love new friends. Your dog would be very loved and taken care of. I also have four cats who love to have new friends in they would be very loved and taken care of and would not be let outside at all

“Our dogs love Sam! They’ve stayed before, and will hopefully be back soon! I have absolutely no worries when we leave our babies in her care. Thanks so much, Sam!”
“Zhou was amazing with our dog Kylo! We needed someone last minute to watch him…he responded immediately to our request and was great!! He sent us the cutest pics through his stay! Highly recommend and will use Zhou again!”
“Debbie and family did a fantastic job with Murphy. He slept for two days when he got home as he played so much. Will most certainly be using Debbie and family again!”
“Dennis took care of our dog, Kuna, for the second time and it was a 10-day stay. He took excellent care of her! It is obvious that she loves to go to his house as she gets excited when she sees us packing her bags to go. He has a great routine for her and takes her on walks. He communicates with us and sends pics and updates while we are gone. I highly recommend him.”
“Samantha was great watching my cats last minute. She ensured they had a cooldown space and company when they were ready. On top of all that, she’s just super cool person.”
“Kylee was amazing!! We have 2 high energy dogs and she handled them beautifully, lots of attention and activity. She was communicative and very easy to work with. Definitely recommend!!”
“Jeffery was reasonably priced, prompt in replying and communicated well what to expect. He was very kind and seemed to let Abigail get comfortable at her own speed as she's never stayed with anyone other than 2 or 3 immediate family members. Jeffrey sent pictures as promised and had her packed and ready to go when i picked her up. This was my first time using Rover and very relieved to find Jeffery! I hope he agrees to keep her should the need arise in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and friends’ dogs since I was a child. I’ve also trained my own. We love dogs of all breeds! I work from home with a flexible schedule and my dog is with me all day. Kennel trained is preferred in case I do leave the house. My own dog, Olivia, loves to play with dogs of all sizes! She has a fenced in area to get her zoomies out or play fetch. She also loves walks and car rides. She is kennel trained and often in there if I leave the house for long periods. I have a camera on in this room so I can peep at her! I would provide this same love and care for your pet. We do have a cat, Stormi, who couldn’t care less what is going on in her house. She stays in her own zone!
“Thank you for taking care of our 2 girls, Ron! They had never stayed away from home and didn’t have much socializing beforehand. Ron was patient and understanding. He sent pictures and updates to let us know they were behaving and having a good time. When we picked them up, I don’t think they wanted to leave!”
“Kylie was great with our dog who was a little nervous at first being left in a different environment and meeting new doggie friends and a cat. Kylie took the time to let her get comfortable. Will definitely use her again”
“Brittney did a great job communicating and had all of our dog’s stuff nicely packed for pickup. She’s got a huge fenced in yard that would be great to run around in. She was really sweet and our dog seemed to really like her. Would definitely book with Brittney again!”
“Darian was absolutely amazing with my dog Baxter. He stayed w her for a few nights while I was out of town and had a great time. She sent frequent updates, pics, and videos. She even sent him home with some goodies! Will definitely be using again in the future”
““She was amazing! Took the best care of my dog, sent updates regularly, and it truly felt like he was treated as one of her own for the whole week. I could not have asked for a better experience or better individual to leave my dog with for a week!””
“Paige was excellent!! I was a little nervous about leaving my 5 month old shepherd puppy with someone new but she was perfect. Introduced my pup to her dogs slowly and with care, made sure she got lots of play and interaction. Will absolutely be using her again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have owned dogs most of my life (variety of breeds). I currently have a mini-Pomeranian and a Golden Retriever, who love making new friends! I've helped family and friends with pets over the years, and I also volunteered at a mill-dog rescue when I lived in Colorado - giving meds, cleaning, and socializing. I will make sure your fur-baby receives the best care!! I work full-time M-F (normal day-time hours) but can work from home whenever I want. I live close to work and, therefore, can drive home for check-ins/walks if I do need to be at my office. I have a lot of availability and flexibility on weekends. I have a small, fenced yard in a quiet, safe neighborhood. It's extra secure because my small dog would, otherwise, be able to sneak out of it. It's also partially shaded, but they would not need to be outside unless they preferred to be!
