“Truly an awesome experience! I can’t thank Megan and super sweet family enough for welcoming my high anxiety girl into their home and loving on her as if she was their own. I could tell by the updates and pictures that Megan sent daily that Rosie was happy and enjoying her stay, which gave me great peace of mind and allowed me to throughly enjoy my vacation. I have no doubt Rosie will miss playing with the kiddos and family pets, but not for long since we’re already planning another stay in just a few weeks!”
“Elizabeth gave great care to my two dogs. They were very happy there. It was such a good experience. So much better than putting them in a kennel. She walked them twice a day and gave them love and attention. I will definitely board my dogs here again.”
“My dog loves staying at Nicole’s. We have used her numerous times and she always sends pictures, videos and updates. My dog turned six while staying with her and she made a special treat and her family sang HBD to her and she sent me a video. I absolutely loved it and highly recommend her. ❤️”
“Steve is great. Really good guy who obviously cares about his and other people’s pets. He’s very accommodating and flexible. My dogs enjoy being there. Steve has become my go-to pet sitter in Lawrence.”
“Mo has always been taking great care of my little dachshund! Her and her family just loves his little ball of energy and she provides so many great pictures and videos throughout the day to show that.”
“Erin was very responsive and kept me in the loop on my puppy’s daily goings on. I appreciated all of the photos she shared. My furry dude was having the time of his life and had a big grin on his face in pretty much all of the pictures. We would love to use her again.”
“Natalia is so nice and accommodating! She has a huge heart, and I trust her with my sweet babies! She was willing to walk me every step of the way, and have the patience to talk to me anytime I needed to express care and concern. I’ll definitely be using the service again!”
“Carissa took great care of my Nala. Nala hurt her leg a few days before we were going out of town and Carissa was very willing to give her the extra attention she needed! She will definitely be hangout out with Carissa again!!”
“Karrie was fantastic! She was so accommodating and let us meet her before our trip. She sent us so many updates and I absolutely trust her with my dog. We’ll absolutely be requesting her in the future.”
“Angela was very accommodating and took great care of my cats! I would definitely book again and would 100% recommend her services to anyone looking for excellent pet care 😊”
“Alyssa and her furry fam were wonderful! We received lots of photos and updates regarding our pup's activities. He had so much fun romping with his two new friends. Alyssa will definitely be at the top of our list next time we need a doggy sitter. Thanks Alyssa!”
“Nate took great care of our pup and sent regular photos and videos for our peace of mind. She loved playing with his dog and the other he was sitting! Will trust him with Ayla anytime.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of my sweet boy and providing him with his very own favorite tiny chair to keep him comfortable during his stay! Haha for real, thank you for helping me out in a pinch!”
“Kathi was a pro at dealing with our little Charlie. I could tell that he bonded with her based on his body language. Thank you Kathi, for taking the worry out of this doggie mama.”
“Xue did a great job of keeping us updated on how our dog was doing. Our dog had some struggles being away from home, but Xue made it work so that we could finish our vacation”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dogs received while we were away! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Our two dogs were treated like family, and it was clear they were loved and well looked after. They had plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles, which we could tell by their happy and relaxed demeanor when we returned. It was such a relief to know they were being cared for with so much attention and affection. Highly recommend Daniel & Carolyn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog-sitter!”
“Brittany was absolutely great for us. She provided daily updates and was very flexible with drop off and pick up. Russell loved playing with their dog and kids. Would highly recommend”

“Shanelle went above and beyond to ensure our cats were well-fed and happy for the week were out of town. She kept in regular contact with us on the app with daily updates and pictures. She was also right on time with the initial visit. I would not hesitate to hire Shanelle again.”
“Michelle was very punctual and communicative during the stay. Kirara loved her and she sent photos each day. Definitely recommend for check ins or house sitting. Will most definitely book again!”
“Michele took great care of our cat Veronica. Our shy kitty even came out long enough for Michele to take a photo, which is a first in all of our Rover visits! Thanks for everything Michele!”
“Sarah did a fantastic job taking care of my difficult cats. I have one shy cat and one territorial cat and they did not phase her at all! I really appreciated knowing they had someone experienced looking out for them while I was out of town.”
“Savannah was amazing! I had a trip come up with very short notice, and not only was she accommodating, she made time for a meet & greet to make sure she knew the routines and everything. She had already read through the pet profiles when she arrived and had great questions to make sure she had all the right information. When she came for visits, she did everything she needed to do (water, litter, food) and sat and played with my very spoiled cats! I think it’s a huge signifier when my nervous, scaredy-cat kitty came out of her shell and hung out with her. Overall, I loved how communicative and flexible Savannah was! I copied her profile link to send to some coworkers as soon as I’m done with this review. If you’re looking for a good sitter, look no further!”
“Terra was amazing! We found her on Rover somewhat last minute after some issues with our other sitter, and I am so glad we did! Terra was so flexible when we had to make some last minute changes to her care schedule due to our kitty, Nickel, coming down with a UTI the morning we were leaving for vacation. Terra proceeded to take such great care of Nickel. She kept us regularly updated about how Nickel was doing, and sent pictures, which were so comforting to see. Nickel was not so sure about taking his meds from a new person, but Terra did a great job working with him and trying different strategies to help him. All-in-all, Terra went above and beyond in so many ways, and we feel so fortunate that our little guy was in her care. We definitely highly recommend, Terra!”
“Michelle is wonderful. Besides being professional, friendly, and dependable our cats LOVE her. She took great care of them including brushing and playing. We highly recommend her and we plan to use her for our future pet care needs!”
“Ashlyn was fantastic!! I was so nervous about leaving my cats with a stranger. I have only ever let family watch and take care of them. It can also be a little nerve wracking to let a stranger into the house. But Ashlyn made me feel so at ease knowing she was coming to see my cats. She arrived on time every single day. Never left a second early. She made sure to send me pictures, which I loved and made me feel confident that my cats were being cared for. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not have to check in with her everyday to ensure she was doing what needed to be done. When I got home, the house was just as we’d left it. Ashlyn even brought in a package from outside when we didn’t ask her to!! I will absolutely use Ashlyn again (if she takes me)”

About: Growing up I was never without a pet. We always had cats and dogs. I have helped care for pets since I was a little girl and often watched animals for family friends. I had my very first dog at 18 who turned out to be deaf. Taking care of him was not easy but so worth all the love we shared. Sadly he passed away from Cancer in 2013. I live a few blocks from the Eudora Elementary school and love walking the trail that goes behind it. I find joy in watching my own animals run and play. I treat all animals as if they were my own children. I currently work through the week but I am looking to grow my clients through Rover so I may watch animals full time as I absolutely love them! Right now I am available in the early afternoon/evening and most weekends to do check-ins. I currently work from home and can do doggy day care or boarding through the week and your pet will not be left alone. I hope to be able to watch animals full time eventually. I am married and have a 7 year old son. My husband and son share in my love for animals. We have 2 cats and 2 dogs who are super spoiled just like our son. We love to play and cuddle as a family. Our favorite is to cuddle up on the couch with our fur babies and watch a movie. In the client's home I will respect specific requests and respect your home as if it were my own. I can assure a safe, loving, and loyal friend to walk/care your animal. I will gladly take and send picture updates while with your pet to help ensure your pets safety. I'm also happy to help with an special accommodations your pet needs.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, pot belly pigs, and rabbits professionally over the summers during undergrad. I have walked, played, fed, medicated, cleaned up after, and cared for in whatever way owners have needed and preferred.

I can make any day or night of the week work with notice, and I usually can make it work without warning.

“Savannah was SO great! I have never used Rover before, but I had such a good experience with Savannah. She and Frankie got along great and I felt super comfortable with leaving him with her. She made sure he got lots of love and she kept me updated during the day with pictures. I will definitely book with her again.”
About: I grew up on the family farm surrounded by dogs and cats and all kinds of animals - caring for them was part of my life. That lifelong connection led me to volunteer at a local dog and cat shelter where I've gained even more experience with pets of all temperaments and needs. I treat every animal like a family and I willl give your pet loving care whether it's for a quick walk or an overnight stay. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fully prioritize pet care. My days naturally revolve around the animals I am caring for and I enjoy creating routine that suits their needs. My home, farm in the woods, is a dog paradise where they can relax, go for walks or play. In client's home, I'm respectful of their space and routines, I communicate with the owner, send updates and make sure the pet has all my attention.
About: Located just 10 minutes west of the Legends of Kansas City, your fur-baby will get the TLC that you’d provide in your own home. Plenty of attention and room to run! I currently work some evenings and weekends in order to homeschool during the day so we are home often. I will be clear about availability during bookings. My family is fur-baby friendly with 4 goats, a flock of chickens, two sweet puppies, and a cat currently. During bookings my two dogs (one is an outdoor farm dog) and cat will be kept separate to ensure the safety and comfort of all. Any medical, training, attention, and care needs will be accommodated as requested by the owner.
“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.”
“Lauren really loves animals and it shows. I’ve never met anyone so kind and caring with their pets. This is the best pet sitting experience I’ve ever had by far and my dog seemed really happy. I’ll be using Lauren exclusively from now on. Thank you so much Lauren 🩷”
“Awesome experience for our 2 crazy maligators! Anna was very flexible with our schedule as we were coming from out of state. Great communication. Will absolutely book again next time we're in Kansas!”
“Steve is so very sweet. Juniper is a big puppy with lots of energy and emotions. Tbh, an exhausting toddler. He has so much love to give he just explodes. Until he collapses into sweet dreaming mode😂 Steve has been so patient and understanding of family circumstances and has been so supportive. Even reinforcing training and exposure on the daily to keep Junie the bestest boy ever. I’m grateful for Steve.”
“We knew we were going to be happy with leaving our Stella at Josh’s house, just from the meet and greet we had with him. His home is in a country setting and there is a huge fenced yard for the dogs to play in. Josh sent us several pictures during the day of Stella playing with the other dogs, and we could tell she was having a great time! His hours are much more flexible than the boarding place we have used before. When we got Stella home, she was totally worn out from playing so much. We will definitely be bringing Stella back to Josh’s for day care and boarding!!”
About: I have had dogs in my home for almost my whole life. I have a pug, golden retriever, and a mutt that are all a couple years apart in age. For two years, I volunteered at a humane society where I walked and cared for dogs of all kinds. Senior, puppy, sick, I have a lot of experience and I would love to get more! I’m currently working at a golf course near Forest Lake. My schedule for work comes out weekly, so I’m unaware what my weeks look like well in advance. I don’t like to do this, but if your pups are able to be home for about 6-8, then this would be a great fit! Obviously I wouldn’t work every day of the week, so I will be available to give them my full attention. Your pups are my priority and I wouldn’t want them to feel uncomfortable with my wack work schedule in any way. My shifts will either be 6-2 or 2-9, or shorter. I prioritize respect for your space and routines. Whether your pet prefers potty breaks in a fenced yard or leashed walks, I’ll follow your preferences to keep them comfortable and safe.
“Regan was amazing with my puppy. She sent me multiple updates throughout the days, fed my dog, took her potty, played, etc.. while I was at work. I plan on using her again :)”

“Our dog took to Cristina, and it made me feel at ease the way Cristina interacted with our dog. She was personable, and my dog came home tired from her stay, which is a good thing for us. We would absolutely use Cristina again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, took care of them and have a great passion for animals. I’ve had my own pets since 2007 (2 cats and a dog). Since 2020 I have fostered animals for a local shelter including dogs, puppies as young as 6 months, and kittens as young as 5 weeks. I have basic experience in dog training. I’m currently working on a part-time contract basis so my schedule is very flexible and I would love to help you care for your pet(s). I am available daily with a set schedule to accommodate your needs. I am an experienced foster of dogs and kittens. I have a dedicated space (spare bedroom) to keep any animals separate from mine, but if they are dog and cat friendly they could be free roaming in the house when I am home. I have a cable for supervised potty time in the yard. I am experienced with crate training. I am clean and professional, respecting your space and routines in your home.
“Beth was amazing! We met beforehand to make sure our pups got along and she was so kind and accommodating! She sent pictures to keep me updated and filled out the Rover cards everyday to let me know how it went! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Pablo loves going there ! He gets so excited when we pull up and he literally plays the whole time he's there ! I feel like he's apart of the family when he goes. He always come back home so tired from all his play. Kim is wonderful ! ”

Rest-assured, your dogs will be loved here and get to play with our 12 year old Terrier and our 7 year old Austrian Pinscher. We have a large fenced yard and LOTS of toys and nearby trails where I'll take our dogs and yours for walks several times a day. I do allow pets on furniture and to sleep in our bed if that's what they're used to. If your dog plays well with others they will fit in perfectly here! I’m currently working from home 2 days a week so typically always home during those days to care for your pups! They will get lots of outdoor breaks and at least one walk while I’m home.

About: I grew up around dogs and have always had a love for caring for animals.

I’m always active I work as a medical assistant. I am a trustworthy and dependable dog sitter who treats every pet like they are my own.

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m 18 years old and have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both dogs and cats, and I currently have four dogs of my own, so I’ve always been surrounded by animals. I work at a dog daycare in Lawrence, where I care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I supervise playgroups, feed dogs, give medications when needed, and make sure they’re safe and having a good time. Working there has given me experience with all kinds of dogs and taught me how important it is to pay attention to each pet’s individual needs. I’m also experienced with cats and am happy to care for both friendly, outgoing cats and the more shy, independent ones. I recently graduated from high school and will be starting my pre-veterinary studies at JCCC this fall. My dream is to become a veterinarian! My boyfriend, Cameron, is 20 and helps me with pet sitting. He loves animals just as much as I do and has plenty of experience with them. He helped train our German Shepherd from puppyhood and grew up with several cats, so he’s comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I just like to let everyone know that Cameron may accompany me on visits or overnight stays. We both genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and we’ll make sure your pets are loved and well cared for while you’re away. I work Tuesday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, but I’m available before work, during my breaks, and after work. So I am able to check your pets every 4-5 hours. I also have full availability on weekends and Mondays. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, and I do my best to be flexible to meet your pet’s needs. When I’m caring for your pet in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. Whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pets! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet and greet.

I also monitor their interactions to ensure they are comfortable and safe. •Open Communication: I believe in building trust with both you and your dog. I encourage you to share any specific needs, preferences, or concerns regarding your pet's care. Regular updates and photos can help you feel connected while you’re away. •Consistency: I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walks, and playtime to help your dog feel secure and comfortable in my home. Familiarity fosters trust, and I aim to create a stable environment for your pet. •Positive Reinforcement: I use positive reinforcement techniques to build a rapport with your dog. This helps them feel more at ease and creates a trusting relationship. •Comfortable Space: Your dog will have access to a cozy area where they can relax.

I currently work full-time caring for pets at a daycare facility, typically working either 6-1 or 1-7 Tuesday through Saturday. Fully available on Sunday and Monday! I have my own pup who is fixed and very friendly! I can bring him along if you want your dog to have any socialization or burn extra energy, but I am also more than happy to focus on your pet!
About: I have always been known to my parents friends and neighbors and the person to call if you need help watching your animal. I’ve been pet sitting dogs specifically for just over 4 years but before that I watched everything from cats, to fish, and hamsters. I’ve dealt with numerous dogs suffering from seizures along with many recovering from surgery’s so I know how to handle almost everything. I’m currently a college student. I have some Morning commitments however I can be home with your pet for most of the day, or stop by at any point during the day to walk or let them out. I have an english golden retriever myself so there is another dog within my house, however he’s very friendly with other dogs. We don’t use a crate in our house and the dogs are allowed on the furniture but I’m happy to follow whatever you prefer for your own animal.
About: I’ve grown up with pets of all kinds. I love to nuture and care for people & animals. I’m new to Kansas, and would love to spend some time with furry friends as I settle in. My schedule is wide open and very flexible until nursing school starts in late August. I currently do not have a job because I will be a full time student come August, so I am very available! I have 5+ years of pet sitting experience. I am confident and trustworthy when it comes to providing care for animals. I am willing to follow any instructions given to provide the best care for your furry baby!
About: Emergency Veterinary Nurse <3 Super active so I love walking dogs! (I don’t have any because my cat is a diva) Have a soft spot for the oldies 🥹💗 Crazy cat lady as well 🐈⬛ Comfortable with most exotics/pocket pets! Message me to see what we can work out :) I work 3 12s at a VEG! (Veterinary Emergency Group) so always have doctors on call for your pet! Having the medical background I do, watching elderly/ health conscious pets is something I love doing! I’m familiar with nearly every specific medical treatment from mega esophagus, to cushings, to diabetes and more! Not to mention, if anything in the event goes wrong or something health wise happens to your pet. I have 24hr 365 days a year access to an animal hospital & many er veterinarians.
About: I have four years of animal rescue experience, as well as seven years of pet-sitting experience before that. My rescue work has exposed me to animals with all kinds of personalities, so I am comfortable working with animals that have behavioral challenges. I am currently a student at the University of Kansas Law School. My mornings, lunches, evenings, and weekends are free! I can do drop-ins or overnights at the pet owner's house. I will make sure that your pet's regular routine is impacted as little as possible. It's important that they feel safe and generally unaffected by their owner's absence!
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, pot belly pigs, and rabbits professionally over the summers during undergrad. I have walked, played, fed, medicated, cleaned up after, and cared for in whatever way owners have needed and preferred. I am very flexible to your specific requests and understand that pets are family. Currently, I am working part-time with a very flexible schedule. I can make any day or night of the week work with notice, and I usually can make it work without warning. I won't watch pets in my home as I do not currently have a fenced-in yard, however, I am happy to take them on walks and watch them from their homes. I respect your privacy and prioritize the comfort of your pet.
“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’ve always had a great love for animals. I currently pet sit for a couple of families when they are out of town. I love every type of animal and can provide the care they need! I am currently a stay at home mom and am available most of the time to provide pet care. My husband has a flexible work schedule as well so he is able to keep our kids while I take care of animals. I pay attention to detail and am extremely careful to follow the pet owners guidelines for pet care. It is so important to follow directions to make sure pets are taken care of the way they need and deserve!

“Truly an awesome experience! I can’t thank Megan and super sweet family enough for welcoming my high anxiety girl into their home and loving on her as if she was their own. I could tell by the updates and pictures that Megan sent daily that Rosie was happy and enjoying her stay, which gave me great peace of mind and allowed me to throughly enjoy my vacation. I have no doubt Rosie will miss playing with the kiddos and family pets, but not for long since we’re already planning another stay in just a few weeks!”
“Elizabeth gave great care to my two dogs. They were very happy there. It was such a good experience. So much better than putting them in a kennel. She walked them twice a day and gave them love and attention. I will definitely board my dogs here again.”
“My dog loves staying at Nicole’s. We have used her numerous times and she always sends pictures, videos and updates. My dog turned six while staying with her and she made a special treat and her family sang HBD to her and she sent me a video. I absolutely loved it and highly recommend her. ❤️”
“Steve is great. Really good guy who obviously cares about his and other people’s pets. He’s very accommodating and flexible. My dogs enjoy being there. Steve has become my go-to pet sitter in Lawrence.”
“Erin was very responsive and kept me in the loop on my puppy’s daily goings on. I appreciated all of the photos she shared. My furry dude was having the time of his life and had a big grin on his face in pretty much all of the pictures. We would love to use her again.”
“Natalia is so nice and accommodating! She has a huge heart, and I trust her with my sweet babies! She was willing to walk me every step of the way, and have the patience to talk to me anytime I needed to express care and concern. I’ll definitely be using the service again!”
“Carissa took great care of my Nala. Nala hurt her leg a few days before we were going out of town and Carissa was very willing to give her the extra attention she needed! She will definitely be hangout out with Carissa again!!”
“Nate took great care of our pup and sent regular photos and videos for our peace of mind. She loved playing with his dog and the other he was sitting! Will trust him with Ayla anytime.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of my sweet boy and providing him with his very own favorite tiny chair to keep him comfortable during his stay! Haha for real, thank you for helping me out in a pinch!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dogs received while we were away! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Our two dogs were treated like family, and it was clear they were loved and well looked after. They had plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles, which we could tell by their happy and relaxed demeanor when we returned. It was such a relief to know they were being cared for with so much attention and affection. Highly recommend Daniel & Carolyn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog-sitter!”
“Brittany was absolutely great for us. She provided daily updates and was very flexible with drop off and pick up. Russell loved playing with their dog and kids. Would highly recommend”
“This is our second boarding with Lauren for our German Shepherd puppy and this day was wonderful for our dog and us. Lauren is great with communication and updates and our puppy loves spending time with her and her dogs. Highly recommend Lauren! She’s made being a new pet owner so much easier knowing we can entrust our puppy to someone loves him like her own!”
“Amazing sitter! My dog Jerri had a fantastic time and was very tired when she came home (it's really hard to tire her out). I will definitely be using Deanna again and I would encourage you to also.”
“First time using Rover and I felt comfortable immediately after getting to Shelly's to drop off our old guy. Picking him up, it was obvious that he was comfortable and loved while there. It was such a great experience!”
“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. ”
“Bo spent four nights with Lizmarie T. this past week. He appeared to have a great time at her house and with the other doggie buddies. Will definitely use her again in the future! Thanks so much for taking care of our Bo!”
“Petra was a phenomenal sitter for our dogs. She was very communicative and friendly when setting up boarding. She sent photos each day and her property was great for two herding dogs to run around off leash. Perhaps most importantly, our dogs took to her right away since she treated them like her own. Petra is a warm and caring person and I give her my highest recommendation!”
