Personalized care for your dog or cat - Linwood
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Linwood
“Elizabeth and Christopher and their family took excellent care of our dog Bruce and cat Toast. They communicated promptly and kept us well updated while we were gone. I can tell our boys were well cared for, we would definitely use them again! They also made drop-off and pickup and a breeze.”
“New to Rover, Steve was at the top of the search list and surely Tako and I experienced why. He was great, he has a way with dogs and absolutely loves them! Very chill, laid back, and accommodated very well to my requests or changes. He is very responsive, updates on how Tako is doing, and detailed Tako’s visit at the end. The added bonus is that all I had to provide for Tako for his stay was a bowl and food, Steve took care of the rest! Tako was in very good hands, allowing me to enjoy my trip with no worries about my furry son. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else and will be asking Steve to dogsit Tako in the future!”
“Nicole is absolutely incredible. She treated our pups like family for sure. Her backyard is an oasis for any dog that likes to run. And her kids are ready willing and able to play with the dogs. Thank you so much for the wonderful care and love you gave to our doggies.”
“Emily was absolutely amazing! She agreed to our booking last-minute and was so friendly and welcoming when I dropped off the cats. She provided lots of pictures and videos and gave great updates of our kitties! She was definitely knowledgeable about cats and was very comfortable handling the two different personality types of our cats. She also has a beautiful home with lots of space for your pets to roam around! I HIGHLY recommend to board your pets with Emily! She is worth every penny! So much better than boarding your pets at a vets office! Thank you so much 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!!”
“We can’t recommend Colter enough! He took wonderful care of our Corgi Saffron for two stays recently. One overnight and one 6 night stay. He communicates promptly and his home has been very clean each time we’ve been there. Saffron had never been anywhere overnight and she was excited to see him when we took her the second time and we’ve already booked another stay with him. His dog Rumi is very calm and sweet.”
“Natalia was legit the BEST. She kept me updated on sundae all throughout the day. I was also late picking up the fur babe and she was so understanding! She’s your girl! Sundae will be back! ❤️”
“Michele was great! Our dogs loved her home and they came back DOG tired from all the playing. I received pictures and videos while we were out of town and she gave them their meds. I know they enjoyed the bedtime snuggles too! I highly recommend her for dog sitting.”
“It was amazing, I felt comfortable let her watch my pup. Much better than hotel. She text me often and pictures and videos also. I felt nice to hear from her during trip. I highly recommended Mo.”
“Evelyn was excellent! She communicated well and was SUPER patient with my very nervous dog. I would highly recommend her and will reach out to her again in the future.”
“Karrie took wonderful care of Barley for us! She was a great communicator, whether it was setting up the meet and greet, leading up to the stay, or providing us with great updates and pictures (without us having to ask for them)! She was kind, loving, and Barley came home happy. We would definitely use her again. Thank you Karrie!”
“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!”
“This was our first time using Rover to board our dogs for a weekend at the lake. We were very pleased with Nate and his communication. Would definitely board our dogs with Nate again. Thank you!”
“My Mushu is always happy to stay with Griffin and Gloria. They take such good care for my dog and always send us updates on how she's doing. They were gracious and flexible over an earlier drop-off time because my time to leave town for a conference got moved to earlier in the day. As always, thank you for treating Mushu like family!”
“She took very good care of my pets. Kept me updated and sent many pics. Definitely recommend her for anyone that’s looking for someone to take care of their pets. Will book her again in future”
“Carolyn took great care of my fur baby! She took him for a lot of walks, sent daily updates and pictures. Nice to have the peace of mind that my baby was well cared for!”

“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!”
“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.”
About: I've had my three cats since January of 2021. I fell in love with them while fostering and haven't looked back since. My love for them has taught me to love and care for all cats including calling myself an aunt to my friends cats. I'm their first call when it comes to taking care of their feline kids while they're away. I've taken care of up to three different cats in the same week while my friends and co workers were out of town and am always happy to do so.
“Savannah has been great! We’ve had her drop-in cat sit twice now and she’s given us great updates and showed great patience and care for our very... “particular” kitty 😸 We can’t wait to have her watch our pup!”
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 owned pets all my life from dogs and cats to ferrets and lizards. I am currently studying animal science in pursue of a degree in veterinary medicine. I have trained puppies and volunteered at shelters so I have been exposed to lots of different dog breeds. Last summer I worked side by side with a Vet and gained lots of experience with many animals. My schedule is very flexible considering I am a college student and only work when I am home on breaks. I am working at a vet clinic and getting experience in that field. I am also available on weekends and capable of working with you to put the needs of your pet first. My dogs have a fenced in yard so during this time of year they spend a lot of time outside and playing fetch. We have crate trained them as puppies so I can accommodate to any means necessary.
“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!”
“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!”
About: I am an insured pet sitter and also a teacher! I have watched several people's fur babies. I have lots of experience with animals and even own 5 of my own. I am trustworthy and reliable and you never will have to worry about your 4 legged family. Please message me regarding pricing. I work full time during the school year as a teacher and pet sitting works perfectly with that schedule as I am able to be available for all your pet needs and this is the only thing I do throughout the summer. I look forward to meeting your fur babies. I do my best to keep your pets in routine and follow directions very closely as to what my clients want done and make sure and send them updates throughout their vacation as well.
“I have been so grateful to have Amelia check in on my cats, three separate times now. She is so reliable, prompt to reply and I will continue to utilize her services as long as I can! She is a lifesaver, every single time!”
“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: 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.
About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m 18 years old and have been passionate about animals my entire life. Growing up with both dogs and cats, and currently owning four dogs of my own, I’ve developed a strong understanding of different personalities, routines, and care needs. I currently work at a local dog daycare in Lawrence, where I care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes supervising group play, feeding, administering medications, monitoring behavior, and providing individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra attention, I’m confident in providing safe, compassionate care tailored to their needs. I’m also an experienced cat caregiver and understand that every cat has a unique personality. From social and affectionate cats to more independent or timid ones, I take the time to help each pet feel comfortable and secure. I recently graduated high school and will be attending JCCC this fall to pursue a pre-veterinary track. My goal is to build a lifelong career working with animals, and I genuinely love every opportunity to care for them. My boyfriend, Cameron, accompanies me during pet-sitting visits. If you would prefer that I come alone, just let me know. You’re always welcome to meet both of us beforehand so you can feel completely comfortable. When caring for your pets, I treat them as if they were my own. Their safety, comfort, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities, and I’ll make sure you receive regular updates while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a very little girl. I love all types of animals and my children and I would do anything to provide for any animal. I am a busy mom with a full time job, that being said us moms have super powers so I can make pretty much anything fit into my schedule. The workweek I would be available for early mornings and evenings but the weekends are open and flexible. I have a big backyard and a lovable shitzu and lab to keep your animal company. I enjoy taking walks and getting exercise and playing inside or outside.
About: I've been lucky enough to take care of homes and pets in lots of different places, like California, Oregon, and even other countries. All that experience has helped me become really good at providing reliable and loving care for both pets and their people. I’m really good at going with the flow and can easily change my schedule to fit what a pet needs. Whether it’s walking the dog early in the morning, playing with them in the afternoon, or feeding them at night, I’m always flexible and ready to adjust. I always do exactly what my clients ask me to do, whether it’s about feeding their pet on time, giving them medicine, or teaching them good behavior. I know how important it is to keep things consistent for pets, so I try to make their routine as comfortable and familiar as possible.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Linwood
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 🩷”
“Cheryl is very friendly and excited to meet the owners and especially the Fur babies. The Fur babies were Immediately comfortable in her house. When we picked them up, I knew that she had treated them as if they were her own period they were very content and happy. She sent pictures to us twice during their stay.”
“Josh was very flexible, attentive, and caring for our pup! He sent us lots of updates and my dog came home every day exercised, socialized and happy! Would definitely recommend!!”
About: We have had dogs and cats our entire lives and helped with many friends and family pets when needed. We love walks and have a large fenced in backyard. Your furry friend is sure to be comfortable and loved on in our home. I am a stay at home mom and homeschool two of my children who LOVE animals! We have a flexible schedule and can sit in our home weekends and weekdays or come to yours for a walk or feeding. We have a large fenced in yard which is great for dogs! We have 3 cats in our home which has a basement and second story so plenty of space to spread out.
“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!”
About: I’ve got two dogs who are turning 10 this year. I had a mini hobby farm the last two years but we had to move and leave it behind and I’m desperately missing animals. I can’t wait to snuggle your pup! I’m currently working part time from home. So I’ll be here all day and can provide your pup/pups with all the snuggles and potty breaks they could need. We snuggle our dogs and let them on the couch and bed and go on walks quite frequently, so your pup would be in great hands and loved.
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 :)”

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.

I’m currently available 7 days/wk I work as a server in my pleasant so whoever I’m staying with ideally should be able to go 6-8hrs between potty breaks! If I have 2 weeks or more advanced notice I can make arrangements to be able to check in more frequently. o o o o o o o o o o I love interacting with the pets and getting to see them get more comfortable with me. I am very comunicative and willing to ask questions.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, starting with fostering puppies through senior dogs. I’m experienced with different temperaments, routines, and basic care like feeding, walks, and medications. My neighbors trust me to watch their pets when they’re away, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cherished. I treat every dog like my own and prioritize their happiness and well-being. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute bookings when possible! I’m available most weekdays and weekends, especially mornings and evenings. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand every pet has different needs and responsibilities, so I focus on patience and making them feel safe.
About: 🐾 About Me: Hi there! I’m passionate about pets and have been taking care of dogs since I was just 7 years old. Throughout my life, I’ve had the joy of sharing my home with various breeds, including Cairn Terriers, Beagles, Dachshunds, German Shepherds, and a Pit Bull. Each dog has taught me something unique, and I cherish the bond we have/created. ❤️ Fostering Experience: I’ve also had the rewarding experience of being a foster mom for a dog rescue. Caring for these wonderful animals has been immensely fulfilling, and I loved being able to help them transition to their forever homes. My heart is always open to providing a safe and loving environment. 🐶 What I Offer: Playtime & Exercise:** I believe every dog deserves to have fun! Whether it’s a walk, a game of fetch, or just some cuddle time, I’m here to keep your pup engaged and happy. Personalized Care:** I understand that every dog has its own personality and needs. I’m committed to providing tailored care that suits your furry friend perfectly. Safe Environment:** Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, secure space where they can feel at home. 🌟 Let’s Connect! If you’re looking for a dedicated and experienced dog caregiver, I’d love to meet your pup! Together, we can ensure they have a fantastic time while you’re away. Feel free to reach out—let’s chat about how I can help! I work a full-time job remotely four days a week, which gives me flexibility during the weekdays. My schedule allows me to be available for dog sitting in the evenings after work and throughout the day on my days off. Additionally, I’m free on weekends, making it easy to provide care for your furry friend when you need it most. •Secure Space: My home is pet-proofed, with all hazardous materials (like cleaning supplies and small objects) stored out of reach. I ensure that windows and doors are secure to prevent any escapes. •Emergency Preparedness: I have a first aid kit specifically for pets and know basic first aid procedures. I am also familiar with the nearest veterinary clinics and emergency animal hospitals in case of any urgent situations. •Supervised Play: When dogs are playing, I supervise them closely to prevent any roughhousing that could lead to injury. 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 provide bedding, toys, and a quiet place for them to unwind. I also ensure that the environment is clean and free from any hazards.
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!

“Elizabeth and Christopher and their family took excellent care of our dog Bruce and cat Toast. They communicated promptly and kept us well updated while we were gone. I can tell our boys were well cared for, we would definitely use them again! They also made drop-off and pickup and a breeze.”
“New to Rover, Steve was at the top of the search list and surely Tako and I experienced why. He was great, he has a way with dogs and absolutely loves them! Very chill, laid back, and accommodated very well to my requests or changes. He is very responsive, updates on how Tako is doing, and detailed Tako’s visit at the end. The added bonus is that all I had to provide for Tako for his stay was a bowl and food, Steve took care of the rest! Tako was in very good hands, allowing me to enjoy my trip with no worries about my furry son. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else and will be asking Steve to dogsit Tako in the future!”

I got updates and photos/videos during Loki’s stay which was great!”

“We are so happy about our experience with Allen while he took care of Howie, our 12 year old domestic long hair Maine Coon mix. We were out of the country when Howie needed to be picked up from his previous owner's home, and Allen was able (for a small fee) to pick up Howie and bring him to Allen's home. Allen provided updates, pictures, and videos whenever we requested them, and several times when we didn't (a nice surprise waiting for us in the inbox!). Howie's 70 day booking was a new record for Allen, and if we ever need another record setting booking (or even for just a few nights) we would gladly book with Allen. When we picked up Howie at the end of the booking we were glad to see Allen provides a clean and safe setting for any pets in his care. Thank you again to Allen for such a great experience!”
