“Meghan was very accommodating with my senior special needs dog. He needed the comfort of someone's home. Her children were an added bonus because he loves kids. We don't travel often so being able to find a place Woody felt comfortable as well as myself helped relieve the anxiety of traveling. Our drop off and pick up time needed to be flexible and Meghan was very available via text to and work with those times on the fly. If we have to travel again I will feel comfortable leaving Woody with her.”

“Libbey was amazing! Sent daily photos and gave my pup her daily meds. Libbey was truly excited to spend time with my pup. My pup was exhausted from all the exercise/play time after spending a weekend with her”

“Hari and her husband took great care of our goldendoodle! We received multiple pictures and updates daily, and they were very accommodating and easy to work with when our flight was delayed and we had to rebook on a flight that got us back the following morning. They have a nice, clean house, fenced in backyard, and a sweet goldendoodle plus other dogs they were watching for some good playtime, exercise, and socializing. Communication was great, and we would absolutely use them again!”

“Jessica did a great job with Bentley. She was very attentive to Bentleys needs and went above and beyond during the time she had him. You can tell she really cares about the animals she cares for.”

“Everything about our pet’s stay with Katherine was fantastic. Katherine sent photos and videos and kept us informed about how she was doing the entire time. We would definitely use Katherine again to watch our dog!”

“We had such a great experience with Dana! She was super dependable and easy to communicate with the whole time. We tossed a few curveballs her way, like meds and the fact that Dante is a newly adopted shelter dog with limited history, and she handled it all with total flexibility and care. Her place is such a great setup for dogs, and her two pups are so sweet and well-behaved. Dante clearly had an awesome time and came home happy. Would definitely recommend Dana to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
About: I’ve been around working dogs most of my life, breeding and raising high-drive dogs and learning how to properly handle different personalities and temperaments. I’ve worked with trainers across the country and have experience with obedience, structure, play, confidence building, and understanding dogs on more than just a basic level.

“Alyssa is absolutely lovely! She was so accommodating and flexible with the meet and greet and spent a lot of time getting to know our dogs, particularly our newest little rescue that's working through some fear issues, prior to coming for a home visit. It's obvious that she places a lot of importance on making sure the dogs felt comfortable with her prior to taking care of them and she went out of her way to help Lyla continue making progress in feeling safe. She handled my big, exuberant boys with ease and genuine affection while also being gentle and quiet with Lyla. During our meet and greet, she was more than happy to learn about the quirks of each dog and when asked, provided genuine and thoughtful suggestions about fearful rescues, including specific things she would do during her home visit. She was prompt on her timing and provided updates and pictures of her time with the dogs, accommodating a last-minute request for a medication administration. She's a joy to work with, communicates very well and promptly and all of my dogs love her. I'm so lucky to have found her and look forward to having her back.”

“Michelle was so amazing, it warmed my heart to know someone was actually giving my cat love and attention as much as I would because that’s usually a pet owners biggest fear. I was out of the country for around two weeks and worried about my cat because she tends to be a little shy and scared of new people and typically i only know how to deal with her. Michelle was perfect !! letting my cat slowly warm up to her presence visit by visit. She would send photos every visit and that was very reassuring, she would play with my cat and feed her and cuddle with gigi. I would get photos of gigi playing, running, and cuddling which is not her norm for when she meets new people so i was very happy with that.There wasn’t a moment where I was worried about my gigi. Michelle is so nice and compassionate and sweet and it shows because my gigi warmed up to her, she responds to messages and updates me where i felt reassured and comfortable, I could not be happier that i found her to take care of my cat and i was honestly lucky to have her as my pet sitter.I would definitely choose her again over anyone if I ever had to leave my cat again but in general with any animal because she actually cares.”
“Kaitlyn has been checking in on my dogs for a little over a year, and I couldn’t be happier with her service! Great communication, dogs love her, and always on time. Definitely book with her if you’re wanting a reliable and trustworthy person with your pups!”
About: My family has had dogs, cats and fish my whole life. I often watch them when my parents are out of town and I have dog and cat sat for family & friends for years.

About: I previously cared for two cats in the same household for one month, following their established feeding, cleaning, and daily care routines. I understand that every cat has a different personality. Some want affection and play, while others need more time and personal space. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can interact with each cat in a way that helps them feel comfortable and secure. I also follow owners’ instructions carefully, keep feeding and litter areas clean, and observe each cat for changes in appetite, mood, or behavior. My goal is to provide calm, respectful care while maintaining the routine they are already comfortable with.

“This was my first time using Rover, and my first time leaving my kitties. I was blown away at how wonderful Ashley was! She was so attentive and wonderful with them. She did perfect with the insulin injections for Pedro and made sure he ate, sent me pictures and I swear my house was cleaner than when I left it! I highly recommend her. 🩵”
About: I have three dogs, two wonderful twin golden retrievers that are 5 years old. They are my whole world and so are my sister and brother’s dogs/cats! My sister has been doing rover in KC for over 7 years so it’s been a great way to experience rover and the necessities for all kinds of pets. Additionally, I’ve been a volunteer at Unchained Melodies puppy nursery and KC Pet Project for the last few years <3 I’m currently a post-graduate student preparing for medical school here in a year so I have a lot of time for longer term pups. I’m preparing for work part-time as well in the fall but I have a very open and flexible schedule. I have helped dog sit for years now and of course I’ve taken care of my own dogs since they were just babies. Unfortunately, I’m unable, for the most part, to have animals stay at my house however, I’m open if necessary. I walk and feed my own dogs daily and they take a lot of space so I want them to feel comfortable in their own environment.
“Justin was great. Between the cats and the dogs and all the nuances of each pet, Justin managed it like a champ. Our cats were not very cooperative, you know, like cats can be. Justin provided us daily updates and pics. He was also super responsive to the many texts I kept sending. He was also kind enough to grab out mail/packages, too. I would definitely recommend Justin if you’re looking for someone to care for your pets.”

About: Dogs come close second, but I love cats more than anything in the world. I’ve had cats since I was a kid and was raised around them. My grandparents took in stray cats from the street and always had at least 5 in the house. In 2020, my parents got 2 tabby cat siblings that we’ve had since. The male is my cat that I take care of and spend all my time with. I also am currently taking care of the female because they are on vacation.
“Thank you, Kassidy for taking such good care of my scared cat. My 5 day get away was much better knowing Bodhi was in good hands. I received daily updates from Kassidy and she promptly replied to any messages I sent her. I will definitely get ahold of Kassidy if I am needing a place for my cat.”

About: HIIII! ♥️ My name is Libbey and animals have always been a huge part of my life. As a Pet Owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, dependable, and loving to care for your furry family members while you’re away. ♥️ I currently care for multiple pets of my own, including dogs, cats and even reptiles so I’m comfortable with a variety of personality sizes and care needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved and well cared for. 🥰 Your dog doesn’t like cats? No problem. I built my four cats a haven in one of our large rooms, where they can stay separate, away from your pup. The whole room has climbers, they love it and it’s hard to get them out of there if I need too during the day! 😂 I LOVE photography-so expect photoshoots and lots of photos, if your pup stays with us! 🥹♥️ I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to details. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I make sure to treat every pet as if they were my own. I don’t have many reviews for right now, because most of my clients I’ve met through different events, or dog parks, etc. I look forward to meeting you and treating your pets like they’re part of our furry family! 🐾 I am currently a stay at home pet mom already. I am able to give your pet the attention and love they need 24/7, round the clock. I care for my pets in my home by providing occasional separation breaks from each other in different rooms, entertainment with cat trees, and dog toys. I also provide the nutrition needed to raise healthy fur babies. I keep my reptiles enclosures clean and kept as well.

About: Hello! **Repeat Clients get specialized Discount** I am an avid animal lover. I got my first pet when I was 3 years old. It was a kitten named Nicky. He taught me a lot of responsibility and showed me a lot of love. A few years later my my mom added several dogs to the family - miniature Schnauzers, Standard Schnauzer, and a Beagle mix Having these animals in my life has given me great experience and also taught me unconditional love. My previous dog helped me get through the rough days when I lost my mom to cancer. I have learned to care for seniors, animals requiring medication (orally) and how to work with young animals especially puppies. In your employ my top priority will be your pets happiness. Working for you is my only employment and my focus will be on your dog or cat only. They will get my undivided attention and I hope to spoil them like crazy. Since I have dealt with several puppies I can even try to bring some training tips to your dog if needed. Personally, I do still have my pup Julius but he lives with family out in the country loving his best life in open fields He is 12 now, He is my furry angel in he was my little protector. It is so true that not all angels have wings. I would have kept him but I could not afford all of the vet bills when you take care of a pet properly, luckily I have a family member I love so much that was able to provide that. I love spoiling dogs of course with the doggy parental guidelines, this includes specific food regiments and pills. I hope that I will get to meet you and your fur babies soon! I have a very go with the flow attitude, I make any animal I care for #1. I dont work full time, so time for pet care is very important to me. Whatever routine the family has I stick to for consistency. I do have other activities I do but they are always scheduled around my work as a pet care provider. 🙂 In my home I create a safe environment. I'm very aware of other animals around to keep your dogs safety number one priority. Unfortunately in this world people at their dogs off leash and that can be a problem. I have no problem following any regimented food or medication delivered to the animals. Also if I'm in a client's home I would treat it with respect and basically make it look like nothing has changed except your dog has gotten top-notch care. If there's anything specific in the requiring overnight boarding I am more than happy to oblige with that.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who understands how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Dogs have always been part of my family, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I work from home full-time, which means your pup will have plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and outdoor breaks throughout the day — not long stretches alone. My home is in a quiet rural town with a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, and relax. I love getting to know each dog’s personality, routines, and comfort needs so they feel right at home here. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers naps and cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive patient, loving care and lots of affection. I know leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I’ll do everything I can to give you peace of mind with updates, photos, and dependable communication during their stay. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I work from home and have been a lifelong dog owner. Pets get plenty of attention, outdoor time, playtime in my fenced yard, regular potty breaks, and lots of affection throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, dogs are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, comfortable environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I provide dogs a safe, secure place to be themselves with personal attention and mindful consideration of their needs. Because I have dogs of my own, any visiting dog will have playmates and socialization throughout their stay.

About: I currently work at a Vet Clinic, I have had animal shelter experience since I was little because of my mom, she was an Owner/Manager for Second Chance Pet Rescue in Grove Oklahoma. 💞 For jobs I have had a year of vet care experience, working in Animal Shelters, and I always make tons of trips to go down to Grove Oklahoma to donate and volunteer. 🐾 My life runs off of being surrounded by animals. ✨ When I watch your fur-baby(s) I make sure I send daily photos and information so everything runs smoothly. 🎉 I’m currently trying to start doing Rover for Full time, 🐾pets have a special place in my heart and my heart always comes back to spending time with them. 💓 In my free time I’m watching clients dogs or I am at home with my own 3 dogs, walking, playing, training the new puppy or cleaning. How I care for my pets in my home🐶, I am walking them in the mornings & at night time. I take them to the Lake in my town to swim, hike, walk, and play. We are always doing something with the pups, I believe they deserve to see the world like we do. I also just got a new puppy so I am working on training her myself.
“Stephanie has been very helpful in walking our dog while he is staying with my elder parents and we are traveling. She was easy to coordinate with, fast response rate, and helped our dog get some exercise until we get back home!”
About: I love dogs, they are phenomenal and loving, it just seemed to fit that the understanding of dog behavior was the next step. I've been caring for dogs in my neighborhood and advising pup parents on their dog behavior and offering insight for years. I have three beautiful dogs that are all off leash trained and positive behavior trained. Our fur friends are not pets they are companions. I can't wait to meet your companion! Working on opening a non profit for abandoned dogs currently. Let me help you and your fur pets make those memories by making things a little bit easier while your not, at home. Let's talk about what you need. What are you waiting for? Let's discuss what you need, thanks for your consideration. The schedule is fairly flexible obviously preplanning is important to all involved, especially our pups. Let's discuss what you need to see what we can come up with. We have play time outside and inside. That includes mental stimulation with toys, tricks and treats. Meal time and rest time either indoor or out door up to the dogs preference.

I am very comunicative and willing to ask questions.
About: I absolutely love taking care of home pets! You will feel stress-free with me while taking care of your animals until you return home. I believe that animals need more love and care than just being let outside and fed. I have house and pet sat for two summers now, and I really love it! I am home from college, looking to have a simpler job during the summer! I am fully available all week and usually the weekends as well unless I'm on a trip! Very open to anything. I have a fenced yard for my pup at home, which helps them have more fun outside! I could also crate the animal if that is what is needed.
About: I have taken care of 2 dogs in my life. I know the basic’s, example , feeding, walking, and bathing. Wanting to spend my time to help all dog owners find someone they can trust while they are away. I’m working Full time currently but have time mostly in the evenings throughout the whole week. Giving time for your dog and providing love till you are ready to pick them up or drop off I have a fenced yard with neighbors fence near mine. They do have pets as well,Husky's, they are vocal and jumpy but I mostly supervise outside in case anything may happen. My home is near a dog park where they can have more space to roam and get all there energy out.
About: I have three dogs, two wonderful twin golden retrievers that are 5 years old. They are my whole world and so are my sister and brother’s dogs/cats! My sister has been doing rover in KC for over 7 years so it’s been a great way to experience rover and the necessities for all kinds of pets. Additionally, I’ve been a volunteer at Unchained Melodies puppy nursery and KC Pet Project for the last few years <3 I’m currently a post-graduate student preparing for medical school here in a year so I have a lot of time for longer term pups. I’m preparing for work part-time as well in the fall but I have a very open and flexible schedule. I have helped dog sit for years now and of course I’ve taken care of my own dogs since they were just babies. Unfortunately, I’m unable, for the most part, to have animals stay at my house however, I’m open if necessary. I walk and feed my own dogs daily and they take a lot of space so I want them to feel comfortable in their own environment.
About: I’m all about keeping dogs happy, engaged, and well cared for not just watched. I love mixing in physical activity and mental enrichment like walks, play, training basics, and enrichment games so they’re fulfilled while you’re away. I’ve worked with puppies, senior dogs, and shelter dogs, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities. Anything from shy and anxious to high energy and playful. I’m patient, observant, and always adjust to what each dog needs. I also have hands on experience with basic grooming like bathing, and I’m continuing to build those skills with my own dog. Every dog I care for gets treated like my own, with a focus on safety, comfort, and making sure they feel genuinely happy and understood. I have my own dog, so pet care is already a big and consistent part of my daily life. My evenings especially revolve around him with walks, play, enrichment, and just making sure he’s happy and cared for in the way I describe in my profile. I also work a full time 8am–4pm job, but I prioritize pet care outside of those hours and make sure I have the time and energy to fully focus on the pets I’m caring for. I’ve primarily only house sat for family and friends, and I always follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep things low stress and familiar for them. I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding, walks, and daily habits so pets feel secure in their environment. Any adjustments I make are minimal and situational for example, changing walk timing or length depending on weather or the pet’s comfort. My goal is always to keep pets relaxed, comfortable, and in their normal rhythm while their owners are away.
About: I have three years of consistent dog-walking experience with the same family and their two dachshunds, visiting three times a week (1 hour walking) without missing a scheduled walk. That long-term commitment taught me the importance of reliability, routine, and building trust with both pets and their owners. I have also provided dog-sitting care for several families, often for about one month at a time, and have cared for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I take time to understand each pet’s normal routine, energy level, preferences, and communication style so they can feel safe and comfortable in my care. In addition to dogs, I am comfortable caring for cats and have many years of experience around horses through riding and handling. This has helped me become patient, observant, calm, and attentive to changes in an animal’s behavior. I genuinely enjoy building a bond through dependable care, play, companionship, and respect for each pet’s individual needs. I currently have a flexible weekday schedule and am usually available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. I have plenty of time to give each pet calm, unhurried attention and am happy to follow their usual routine for walks, meals, playtime, rest, and companionship. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own routine. I take time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, personality, favorite activities, boundaries, and any special instructions from their owner. Whether I am caring for a dog or a cat, I keep doors and gates secure, handle leashes and carriers carefully, and pay attention to their behavior and comfort level. I also respect the owner’s home, keep pet areas clean, and leave everything as I found it. I am happy to send photos and updates during each visit, so you can relax knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, attention, and kindness.
About: I worked at Summit Pet Care for four years. I worked in the daycare, front desk, and kennels department. I have made valuable relationships with several clients. For those clients I have pet sat for them while they have been out of town. I have also walked many of their pups during a busy for them. I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and the rest of the week make time to exercise my own dog. Along with getting online classes done for UCM.. I care for my pets by always getting them with a clam but happy energy. First thing I always do with any pup is take them outside making sure there are no accidents in the home. If I am just meeting the pup I always allow them time to get used to me and make sure I am a loving person.
About: Before I had children, I had a pointer puppy. She was my world and I adored her like a child. I have had pointers, a springer spaniel, horses, a bird, a series of reptiles and cats since. My late husband was a rural veterinarian, so I am comfortable giving medication to pets. I am currently out of work and have a lot of free time during the week. I am also available most weekends. I can help with your busy schedule! I treat pets and homes as if they are my own. Your space will be cleaner than when you left so that you come home to a relaxing environment. I want to do what is most comfortable for your pets so I will keep their routine as closely as possible as when you're home.

“Meghan was very accommodating with my senior special needs dog. He needed the comfort of someone's home. Her children were an added bonus because he loves kids. We don't travel often so being able to find a place Woody felt comfortable as well as myself helped relieve the anxiety of traveling. Our drop off and pick up time needed to be flexible and Meghan was very available via text to and work with those times on the fly. If we have to travel again I will feel comfortable leaving Woody with her.”

“We had such a great experience with Dana! She was super dependable and easy to communicate with the whole time. We tossed a few curveballs her way, like meds and the fact that Dante is a newly adopted shelter dog with limited history, and she handled it all with total flexibility and care. Her place is such a great setup for dogs, and her two pups are so sweet and well-behaved. Dante clearly had an awesome time and came home happy. Would definitely recommend Dana to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
About: I’ve been around working dogs most of my life, breeding and raising high-drive dogs and learning how to properly handle different personalities and temperaments. I’ve worked with trainers across the country and have experience with obedience, structure, play, confidence building, and understanding dogs on more than just a basic level. Whether it’s a high-energy working dog or a laid-back family pet, I focus on making dogs feel comfortable, exercised, and cared for like they’re my own. I work with dogs full-time, so your dog will get plenty of attention, structure, and hands-on care throughout the day — not just quick check-ins. I have crates available in multiple sizes, four outdoor runs, and a fully fenced yard to give dogs plenty of safe space and exercise. I also have a very social, well-mannered dog that can interact and play with client dogs if wanted. If preferred, I can also easily keep dogs completely separate thanks to how my setup is designed — whatever makes the owner most comfortable.
“Sarah and her family are so kind and were great with our dog, Nike! Our dog requires to have daily medication twice a day, and Sarah was great with giving his medicine. Nike can be nervous sometimes, but he immediately felt at home with Sarah and her family, which is such an attribute to how welcoming and kind they are! Cannot recommend enough!”
