“Our dogs spent a week with Steve and had such a lovely time! Steve was very easy to work with and took great care of our pups. Also, if you have a pet with special needs (one of our girls is partially paralyzed and the other needs eye drops twice a day) I would absolutely recommend Steve.”

“Natalia was an amazing sitter! She was so caring and flexible! Our travel plans changed unexpectedly and she cared for my dog an extra day/night after our flights were cancelled. Communication was top-notch and she sent LOTS of photos which I really appreciated! I felt so safe and comforted knowing my baby was in great hands and truly a part of her family for the week. My dog has mobility issues and requires extra care which was lovingly provided. We will definitely be repeat customers and she will be our first go-to the next time we need boarding!”
“Made me feel a lot better leaving my dog by receiving pictures and updates from petra regularly. My dog is elderly but hyper, and I can tell he had a extremely fun weekend because he slept for a few hours when he got home. He is a very happy puppy and I will definitely be back for our next trip! Thank you petra!”
“Amelia & Matthew quickly responded to our request for dog sitting within a few days before our unexpected trip out of town. The greet & meet was helpful, since we haven’t used this service in years. We were getting fun updates, videos & pictures of Bailey! Definitly makes it easier to leave our sweet girl, knowing she’s having fun! Excited to have a great option for dog sitting in Lawrence! Thanks again! ?”
“Another absolutely amazing experience with Erin! I really appreciate the detailed communication and pictures for my dogs stay. It’s always a good sign when she comes home and just wants to nap! I can tell she got lots of love, play time, and was well taken care of! 10/10 as always! Thank you, Erin!!”
“We will definitely book with Melanie again! She took great care of Rosco and I think he would have been happy to stay even longer. Lots of walks and cuddles were very appreciated :)”

“Cheryl was great! I was worried Daisy might not get along with the other dogs but Cheryl assured me they'd be fine and they were. Within an hour I had a picture from her of them playing in the backyard. She sent texts and photos every day and I was very relieved (I'm an over anxious dog mom). Highly recommend Cheryl. Will definitely use her again.”
“We have used Nicole multiple times! She is very responsive, friendly and flexible! Our dog, Teddy always enjoys his time there! He loves their huge fenced in yard and playing with their dogs and kids. He feels right at home:) Our kids love seeing the picture updates Nicole sends too.”
“This family was marvelous with my two dogs. I felt they were well taken care of and got plenty of love. I received an update on both of them and pictures at the end of the day, which was perfect. They both got plenty of outside time and felt comfortable there. I never felt worried and they will go there again when my family goes out of town.”

I'll definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Tamber is amazing. I have left my dog with her twice now and she is not only super responsive, but was flexible with me when my travel plans changed. Never once had to worry about my dogs care plans with Tamber. HIGHLY recommend for your fur babies.”

“Steve is amazing! Leaving our fur babies behind is hard, but it’s so much easier when you know they are getting excellent care. Steve agreed to help with short notice (which we sooo appreciate). He loved on our four-legged furries and took great care of critters with scales, fins and our house!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 13 and house sat since I was 15!! I was also a kennel tech for a year! This included giving medication, bathing, feeding, and just plain old watching the pets! I know CPR for our fury friends too! I have two dogs of my own as well as four cats so I am completely comfortable with a variety. I am a college student working on my masters online while working another job as well. My schedule is pretty straight forward for me so pet care will fit well as long as I keep my calendar balanced. I am comfortable house sitting for both dogs and cats. I am more than capable of crating or letting pets out to potty. I usually keep treats on me anytime I care for a furry friend. When I walk animals, I usually go for 30 minutes to an hour so that they get the excercise needed. I also have bags for when they do their business on a walk.
About: I have plenty of experience providing compassionate care to cats of different ages and temperaments. From feeding, litter box cleaning, administering medication, and providing compassionate care, they will be treated as if they were my family.
“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.”
“Ava was very responsive, nice, and did an excellent job communicating any changes. The kitties seemed to love her and I would definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies. :) She was also kind enough to bring in the mail for us on our extended trip.”
“Elyea is a great kitty sitter, she has watched my (3) kitties for the second time now and I’ll definitely continue to have her watch over them when I am not able! She tends to all their unique needs and puts them in their catio safely when it’s nice outside or in the garage when the kitties decide being indoors isn’t for them. She does a great job making sure their food, water, litter is all handled and up to standard! Also, any package that may have come while I was away she’s sure to grab it for me and bring it in. So nice to have someone for not only me but for my sweet cats!”
About: As a cat owner, I understand firsthand the unique needs and personalities that come with caring for cats. I’m experienced in maintaining feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes regularly, and creating a calm, safe environment where cats feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to their behavior and body language, which helps me recognize when they want attention, playtime, or space. Whether your cat is energetic and playful or more independent and reserved, I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure they feel cared for and stress-free while you’re away.
About: Hi! I go by Ronan and am currently a student at KU (Rock Chalk!) studying elementary special education. I have always had a deep love of animals! My family has had at least 3 dogs my whole life, on top of a cat and three rabbits, all of which I have had a hand in taking care of as soon as I was old enough for chores, and eventually majority of the responsibility in feeding, walking, and playing with them, in addition to the general upkeep that comes along with pets. I also have many years of experience looking after other family's pets, with the largest family consisting of 6 dogs, 2 cats, and a whole reptile room! I have been a part of 4-H and competed in multiple FFA competitions for plants, animals, and vetrinary science for most of my life. I still want to keep working with animals, even though I have my own sweet fur baby cat. I am extremely active and love playing with animals until they're worn out (if thats what they want), and walks are amazing! As a student at KU, I leave for class around 7-7:30 every weekday morning and return around 4 PM, except on Wednesdays and Fridays, when I return around 6-6:30 PM. On weekends, I have flexible availability! I live in an apartment, but it has a lot of open space, and I live close to parks such as South Park and North Park. I have a sweet girl cat who loves all living creatures. I can easily crate any pet who needs to be crated, and I have plenty of forms of enrichment!
About: I have had cats my whole life, and I love being around their clever and fun energy. I have been a pet sitter for several different cats, and my responsibilities included playing with the cats, preparing food and water, cleaning litter boxes, and occasionally administering medication.
“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!”
“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!”
“Alejandra did an amazing job looking after our two kitties! It can be very difficult to find a sitter that you trust to look after your babies and she proved to be very trustworthy and attentive. We will book again! 💕”
“I'm so glad I had Ashley look after my cat Charlie while I was away! She's very responsive and her check-ins gave me peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her or book her again.”
“Joel is fantastic! He’s very gentle and kind. This is the first time I’ve used Rover, and I was nervous to have a stranger in my home taking care of my girl. However, Joel put my mind at ease immediately and has been a lifesaver. Definitely plan to continue booking with him in the future.”

“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 had never had a puppy sitter before, and Daniel was the best first experience we could have hoped for! We needed a last minute sitter for the super bowl, and Daniel was incredibly helpful. His home was clean, he has a number of dog-friendly toys for your pup to play with, and he sent the CUTEST photos of the puppy while we were out and about. He has a wealth of knowledge about dogs, and our puppy was comfortable immediately in his space. We'll definitely be reaching out to Daniel for any of our puppy daycare needs :)”
“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 :)”
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.
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.
“Madison did so well with our energetic 6 month old GSD mix! He can be energetic and she went above and beyond to get him the playtime and exercise he needed. This included walks and playing fetch outside, among other things. He came home a very happy pup!”
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: Taking care of your pets is my top priority and making sure you get back to a happy dog. I’ve dog sat and cat sat for neighbors, family friends and friends of my own. I always have a lot of energy and I enjoy being around dogs and playing with them and walking them. I’m always making sure I’m on top of things to make sure everything that needs to be done is done and all the requirements are fulfilled. Pets always do a good job at comforting and making us happy, so I want to make sure I do the same and give back to them. I’ll treat your furry friends as they were my own with love and care and a lot of playtime. I also do house keeping and anything else you need help with around the house or errands.
About: I grew up taking care of dogs and cats. My family always had either a dog or cats or both. I’ve always loved taking care of them and loving on them. I work from home on weekdays so I’m always around, and my husband is home at night and on weekends. Our home is dog friendly and revolves around our dog, Millie. There are dog toys in every room, treats in the cupboards, and all furniture is dog approved and appreciated. I’m self employed and I work from home, so I’m able to give your pets lots of attention and care. They will get plenty of potty breaks, time outside, and walks around the neighborhood and to the park. We have a fenced in yard that has plenty of room to run and play in and windows for people watching and neighborhood patrolling. We also have a friendly dog who loves to play and meet new people. Your pets will be watched closely and loved on thoroughly!
About: Between Elijah and Sarah, we have taken care of 5 personal pets, including puppies and big dogs. We have a border collie/lab mix who would love to have a friend around to play with! We have a large fenced in backyard perfect for a dog who loves to run. If you have a larger dog who is friendly and good with cats this is the perfect home for your dog to stay! We have a strict one-client policy so you have the guarantee your pets will be the only ones staying with us. We both work from home, so we are readily available at all times to take care of any dog’s needs, including many breaks to play with the doggos and run around with them outside. We have experience handling pills and can watch any high-needs dog. We have a large fenced in backyard and there are very few circumstances where someone is not home. We have a 1600 sq ft, 4 bedroom home with plenty of room for your fur baby! Our dog, Georgia, would love to keep your little pup company!
“Romeo was so well taken care of by Gina! He had so much fun with the other dogs. Gina communicated well and sent lots of updates which I appreciate! We will definitely be using Gina again :)”
About: I've always been passionate about animals. From a young age, I've volunteered my time at animal shelters and walking/taking care of my friend's and family's dogs & cats. I have years of experience caring for animals and love getting to know all of your pups! I have had experience with puppies, senior dogs, and specialize in dogs with separation anxiety. I am knowledgeable on training habits & exercises as well. I had a Maltese for 16 years, and currently have a 4 year old Morkie and 3 year old rescue Lab/Hound. They go everywhere with me when possible and I'd love to spoil your pets as well! I mainly work from home, so I am flexible do boarding, daycare, home check-ins & walks throughout my week and weekend. Rest assured that someone will always be with your dog while you’re away! I will have an initial consultation with you to review your individual wants & needs, discuss your pet, and set expectations for all of our visits to ensure a happy and well cared for dog!
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.
About: I’ve always loved caring for animals and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’m experienced with keeping pets on their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand how important it is to feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I’m happy to care for pets before and after work and on weekends. I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of each pet and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m dependable and will always communicate clearly about my availability so you know your pet is getting the care they need. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, playtime, and any special instructions.

About: I’m originally from Florida, where there certainly is a wide range of dogs to experience! I’ve always been around dogs, the one in the family and friend circle people call to drop their pets off with for any vacation, or trip they may need. I’ve done tons of volunteering but I’ve always wanted animals to essentially take up my whole life so to speak! When I moved here to Lawrence and saw how many more opportunities there was for this kind of thing I was ecstatic. I’m currently working at a daycare and boarding center where I get to spend my time taking care of animals, managing playgroups, and meeting so many sweet different pups! I would love to just keep expanding and opening up possibilities for myself to take care of and provide top level care for people’s pets! With my current job shifts are usually no more than 5-6 hours and I work in the morning a lot (getting off at about 1) so I usually have a lot of time left in the day! Sunday is my only day that I’m pretty much unavailable altogether! Other than that depending on the time frame you’re looking for a walk/check in I am more than able to work around! I have two large dogs myself so needing a large dog, a puller, or reactive pup walked is no problem for me! I love spending time with animals in any way, shape or form. So it won’t bug me if you prefer your pup walked to a specific spot every day, or if you need them checked in purely to be given a kiss and a treat at a certain time in the day! If there’s anything you’re curious of please don’t hesitate to ask! I’ve administered medicine, handled more than one dog at a time, done specialized food/care for pups, and helped out/sat in on training sessions!
About: I have extensive experience caring for animals, as I’ve had pets in my home since I was a baby. Growing up around pets taught me responsibility at a young age, including feeding, grooming, cleaning, and making sure animals feel safe and comfortable. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of pets and have become very attentive to their needs, behaviors, and routines. I understand how important it is to provide not just basic care, but also companionship, patience, and love. My lifelong experience has made me confident in handling different personalities and ensuring pets are well cared for while their owners are away. I am a full time college student and work a part time job as a server. Most of my availability is in the mornings on weekdays and weekends as needed. I am a reliable and caring pet sitter with extensive experience providing private pet care for families. Over time, I’ve built trust with pet owners by consistently showing up on time, following specific care instructions, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I’ve cared for pets with different routines, temperaments, and needs, which has made me adaptable and attentive in any situation. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering basic care, or simply spending quality time with pets, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness while their owners are away.
About: I grew up on a farm taking care of a wide variety of animals, and have a senior husky of my own who is my family. Compassionate care and enrichment is my specialty - exploring sniff spots, play time, having a calm demeanor, and understanding animal behavior is essential to ensure they are happy and healthy! I have logged over 500+ hours as a wildlife rehabber, which includes caring for a variety of animals with different needs and diets, administering medication, and even tube feeding the young so they can eventually be placed back into their natural habitat. Originally from Topeka, I've volunteered extensively at Helping Hands Humane Society and now at the Lawrence Humane Society, spending time in the cat and dog socialization areas. Pets are our family. Whether your dog loves long adventures, leisurely walks, or simply relaxing at home, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is being treated with the same care and attention I'd give my own. I work a remote job which means I have flexibility to take care of your pet(s) throughout the day, and of course flexibility in the evenings and weekends. I am highly active and take advantage of getting steps in, and what better way to do that than with a furry friend (or two)! I currently do not offer in-home care at this time due to limited space. However, I am available to visit your home for check-ins and walks.
About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m 18 and I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and cats, and I currently have four dogs and one cat of my own, so I’ve always been around animals. I work at a dog daycare in Lawrence, where I get to work with all kinds of dogs. I help with playgroups, feeding, medications, and making sure everyone is safe and doing well. I’m also comfortable with cats, including cats that are a little shy or like to keep to themselves. I recently graduated high school and just started at JCCC. I’m taking my prerequisites there and hopefully will eventually transfer to K-State and continue working toward my goal of becoming a veterinarian! My boyfriend, Cameron, is 20 and helps me with pet sitting. He loves animals too and has a lot of experience with them. He helped train our German Shepherd from a puppy and grew up with several cats, so he’s comfortable around both dogs and cats. I just like to let everyone know that Cameron may come with me for visits or overnight stays. We both really enjoy being around animals and will take great care of your pets 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. 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.

About: I have been dog and cat sitting since middle school! I live in Oklahoma and Kansas and do Rover in both for half the year. I have a bigger dog and smaller cat of my own at home but not in Kansas. I volunteer at the Lawrence Humane Society and love all types of animals!! I’m currently in school but am available most hours of everyday. I don’t have many other obligations during the weekdays so I am very flexible with timing! I am willing to work with whatever the owner would like. I am definitely willing to spend the night if necessary and can let out however often you would like.

“Our dogs spent a week with Steve and had such a lovely time! Steve was very easy to work with and took great care of our pups. Also, if you have a pet with special needs (one of our girls is partially paralyzed and the other needs eye drops twice a day) I would absolutely recommend Steve.”
“Natalia was an amazing sitter! She was so caring and flexible! Our travel plans changed unexpectedly and she cared for my dog an extra day/night after our flights were cancelled. Communication was top-notch and she sent LOTS of photos which I really appreciated! I felt so safe and comforted knowing my baby was in great hands and truly a part of her family for the week. My dog has mobility issues and requires extra care which was lovingly provided. We will definitely be repeat customers and she will be our first go-to the next time we need boarding!”
“Made me feel a lot better leaving my dog by receiving pictures and updates from petra regularly. My dog is elderly but hyper, and I can tell he had a extremely fun weekend because he slept for a few hours when he got home. He is a very happy puppy and I will definitely be back for our next trip! Thank you petra!”
“Amelia & Matthew quickly responded to our request for dog sitting within a few days before our unexpected trip out of town. The greet & meet was helpful, since we haven’t used this service in years. We were getting fun updates, videos & pictures of Bailey! Definitly makes it easier to leave our sweet girl, knowing she’s having fun! Excited to have a great option for dog sitting in Lawrence! Thanks again! ?”
“Another absolutely amazing experience with Erin! I really appreciate the detailed communication and pictures for my dogs stay. It’s always a good sign when she comes home and just wants to nap! I can tell she got lots of love, play time, and was well taken care of! 10/10 as always! Thank you, Erin!!”
“We will definitely book with Melanie again! She took great care of Rosco and I think he would have been happy to stay even longer. Lots of walks and cuddles were very appreciated :)”
“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!!”
“Daisy loves to stay with Regan! And I know I don't have to worry while she's there. I get updates and photos everyday and I know Daisy is well taken care of. I highly recommend Regan.”
“Cheryl was great! I was worried Daisy might not get along with the other dogs but Cheryl assured me they'd be fine and they were. Within an hour I had a picture from her of them playing in the backyard. She sent texts and photos every day and I was very relieved (I'm an over anxious dog mom). Highly recommend Cheryl. Will definitely use her again.”
“We have used Nicole multiple times! She is very responsive, friendly and flexible! Our dog, Teddy always enjoys his time there! He loves their huge fenced in yard and playing with their dogs and kids. He feels right at home:) Our kids love seeing the picture updates Nicole sends too.”
“This family was marvelous with my two dogs. I felt they were well taken care of and got plenty of love. I received an update on both of them and pictures at the end of the day, which was perfect. They both got plenty of outside time and felt comfortable there. I never felt worried and they will go there again when my family goes out of town.”
“Elizabeth and Chris were great! We left our 7 month old puppy for the first time for a family trip and she had a blast. Pictures from Elizabeth showed how much fun our pup had doggy ‘summer camp’”
“Theses were the nicest people I have ever met. The cared for my boys. The came home happy and tired. Just like I like them. Both dogs were well taken care of. I will be using them again.”
“Valentine was great with my cat and very flexible with booking last minute. My cat is usually very shy but she warmed up to Valentine quickly! Valentine is also great with keeping you updated with pictures. I will be booking again!!”
“Magen took care of Buddy for me while I was away. She kept me updated with a couple of photos each day and let me know he was doing well. He seemed happy and relaxed when I got home, and it was nice to know he was being walked and cared for. I appreciated having the peace of mind while I was gone. I'll definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Tamber is amazing. I have left my dog with her twice now and she is not only super responsive, but was flexible with me when my travel plans changed. Never once had to worry about my dogs care plans with Tamber. HIGHLY recommend for your fur babies.”
