“We always have peace of mind whenever Moose stays with Stephanie. All those random photos that we received while we were away reassured us that he is happy a great time. I can’t count how many times moose stayed with her, but she’s definitely our go-to gal.”
“Griffen and Gloria were nothing short of amazing taking care of my Crystal, who had never been with anyone other than family before. The updates were comforting and the quick response in communication were much appreciated. I like that they limit the amount of dogs and only take small ones. Absolutely recommend!!”
“Stephanie was quick responder and saved us from a very stressful last minute cancellation from another sitter. She sent lots of pics and updates from the weekend, putting as at ease. Would highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Rhiannon and Rachel took great care of Carson. Communication was excellent. Drop off and pick up went smoothly. Looking forward to using them again!”
“Chrissy was great; similar age, size, and demeanor pets in the home, drop off and pick up was easy, unsolicited updates, and kind of let my dog take her spot in the house where she felt most comfortable. Beside being fed and watered, you really can’t ask for anything more.”
“Chris was able to take Oliver at short notice for a trip I went on. We had a prior meet and greet so I felt comfortable with what to expect. Chris updated me on Oliver and sent pictures. Oliver looked like he had a great time with Chris and Dolly (his pup). He went straight to sleep when I brought him home!”
“Susan and her family were absolutely amazing with our goldendoodle! We received multiple pictures and updates throughout the day and felt completely at ease, while on our vacation. We knew they were treating our pup so well, we actually booked another boarding for our next vacation! Very thankful for this family!!”
“Cassie and Ben and their kids are the best! I know Berkley is loved and well cared for while I'm away, and I can't say enough good things about them!!!”
“Erin was excellent at keeping me updated about my Miso. She sent pics and videos often which I really appreciated as we were out of country for two weeks and wanted to know our girl was happy and safe. We ran out of dog food near the end and she was able to get her some more. We will definitely use Erin again as our pet sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Highly recommend! Linda was very thoughtful in her approach to caring for my dog, Ruby. Her daily rate was higher than other sitters I looked at, but her "one-pet-at-a-time" policy and excellent setup made it worth it. Thank you!”
“I have and will continue to keep sending my pup to stay with brittany. She is great at communicating, quick to reply, and always sends several pictures during the stay. My dog gets lots of play time in her large backyard and is always well taken care of!”
“Jessica took such great care of our 3 pups on their very first stay. She kept them an extra night since we were delayed by thunderstorm. We got daily cute pictures too! We’ll definitely use her as our sitter again.”
“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!”
“Derrika and her family are so sweet and amazing. Kiki might like them more than me! She has the best time when she says with Derrika, cannot reccomend more! Derrika will send all the cute pictures and you won't worry in the slightest. Book her immediately!”
“Tasha is an amazing pet sitter! Thank you so much for taking such good care of my pets! She was very helpful, caring and flexible with my schedule. She sent photos and updates daily. She was so kind that she even helped me get more cat food when I ran out. I will book with her again on my next trip. Thank you!”
“This was the third time we have booked with Olga! She is absolutely fantastic. We got lots of updates and can tell the dogs are in such good hands.”
“Laura was the absolute best! Took in my anxious big baby pittie and loved him from the first second. My boy seemed so comfortable and Laura provided pictures, videos and updates during my 24 hours away from Blue. I couldn't be happier or have asked for a better person to care for my boy 💙🩵”
“Angie did a wonderful job taking care of Molly and Sophie. This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have felt more confident in their care. Angie gave us daily updates and pics which made us not feel guilty for being gone. We could feel easy about being away and would definitely use her again.”
“Becky is absolutely wonderful. We always know he is in good hands with her. She sends photos and videos every day to show us how happy he is to be hanging out with her.”

“Melissa is exactly the sitter every pet owner hopes to find. From the moment I reached out, Melissa set the tone for what turned out to be a genuinely stress-free experience. She responded quickly to my initial message and stayed communicative throughout — consistently sending updates with her photos. What really impressed me was how adaptable she was. When an unexpected schedule change came up on my end, she handled it gracefully and found a solution right away — truly resourceful in the best way. Reliability matters most when you’re trusting someone with your pet, and Melissa delivered on every front. She showed up when she said she would, followed care instructions carefully, and went above and beyond to make sure my cats felt comfortable and loved. If you’re looking for someone dependable who actually communicates and genuinely cares — look no further. Melissa has a returning client in me. 🐾”
“Madeline was incredible with my sweet kitty! The time she spent with her and the care provided was so comforting! I've already booked Madeline again. So happy!”
“This is my second time booking with Nicole and she’s always so great with my cat Dilly. She’s punctual and always sends a ton of great photos and a very thorough note. Always recommend!”
“Sharon did a great job. My kitties were happy when I returned home. In the past one of them would have behavior issues, not using box, when we were out of town. Having Sharon spend an hour a day with them solved this problem.”
“My cat loves Rachel! I couldn't be happier with the care my pet received from Rachel. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure my pet felt comfortable and loved while I was away. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Rachel was the perfect fit for my cat Ruthie! She connected right away with her. I love the report card details of observations Rachel made as well as the photos or Ruthie I received from her while I was away. I would highly recommend Rachel and Rover in general. What a wonderful service they provide with wonderful caregivers!”

“Ella did a great job with our kitties. She was consistent and reliable, and she always sent the cutest pictures of our very shy cat, which made me laugh and was so appreciated. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing someone to stop in and care for their cats! We also had a lot of unexpected packages (registry gifts we weren’t expecting) and she brought them inside for us which was very kind.”
About: I’m a PA at local clinic and when I’m not busy taking care of people and their health, I love spending time with my 3 “nuggets.” I trained & cared for dogs growing up, and have volunteered w/ local humane societies (usually as a dog-walker) throughout my life.

“Nicole was excellent! She was so enthusiastic and caring, and she even handled Lily’s insulin injections like a pro. She was super respectful of our home and gave us detailed updates with each visit. We highly recommend her and would love to have her care for Lily again in the future.”
“Chandler is wonderful! She’s very communicative and sends great updates with so many cute pet pics. Being away from your pets can be hard, but she definitely eases that stress. Would love to book with her again in the future.”
“This was our first time ever hiring a pet sitter so we didn’t quite know what to expect. We picked Lindsay based on her profile and reviews and we liked that she lived really close. We met her and immediately knew that she would be great with our two cats and dog. They all immediately took to her as well which was a great sign! We only did a two day one night trip but we will definitely look forward to having Lindsay watch our pets again! She communicated how they were doing and sent lots of great pictures. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our pets while we were able to go on a quick trip. Looking forward to longer trips in the future and I’ll know that our pets are in great hands!”
“Eva did a great job with our two kitties. She dropped in twice a day during the week we were gone, which is a big commitment. She kept them on a good schedule and sent photos and updates. I could tell from the photos that our cats felt comfortable with her as they rolled around in the floor looking all cute and happy! I would definitely recommend Eva and use her again.”
“Kara has been watching my cat on and off for the past year. She is incredibly reliable and always responds quickly to a request. This last booking I was gone for almost a week and she noticed that my cat was lonely and offered to spend extra time with him the next day to help lift his spirits. I couldn’t recommend her enough for you furbabe. Thanks Kara!!!”
“Bones and Margie absolutely love Christina! Shes always on time and with me working over an hour a way shes someone i can trust. Highly recommend her for your fur babies!”
“We had Vanessa watch our two young cats over Thanksgiving week. Vanessa was great with them and with us - attentive to their needs and very responsive to us. Our favorite was the pictures she shared in the after-visit reports, and our cats’ favorite was seeing their new buddy. Vanessa was very respectful, professional, and kind. Would definitely ask Vanessa to come back in the future!”

“Ron did a great job accommodating my 10 month old standard poodle who can have a lot of energy at times. The other two dogs that we're also staying for day care on this day were a great match for Link. It is obvious that Ron loves the company of dogs and I plan on having Link visit him for daycare each week! Link came home happy, well cared for, and calm.”
“Christine is absolutely wonderful! She is always so understanding and flexible — she even watched my dog two hours past the planned time so I could take care of my niece on a school night. I never have to worry when bud is with her. He walks right in and makes himself at home, which says so much about how comfortable and cared for he feels. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind Christine gives me and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and trustworthy to care for their pet.”
“Always the greatest feeling to leave Kayla or Winston with Stephanie, who absolutely loves her. When both dogs are dragging you to the front door to get inside it’s always such a good feeling.”
“Couldn’t be a better first time Rover experience! Clover had a great day and Allison was awesome in communicating and 6:20 am pick up sure made my day easier. Will use again! 10/10”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of him. He loves hanging out with you. It's funny because we will tell him where he's going in the morning and he gets so excited!”
About: Hi, I’m Chris! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life—I’ve spent 30+ years caring for pets for friends and family and I volunteer at a local shelter as a dog walker. I work from home and now have the flexibility to spend more time doing what I love: keeping good dogs (and cats) company. Your dog will get plenty of attention, care, and a walk they’ll look forward to. With a work-from-home schedule, I’m able to offer flexible, attentive care for your pup. We regularly walk around Loose Park and the Plaza and would love to include your dog. When visiting your home, I make sure each walk is tailored to your neighborhood and your dog’s routine. I provide a safe, structured, and attentive environment tailored to each dog’s needs. I take the time to understand your pet’s routine—feeding, exercise, and any specific preferences—so they feel comfortable and cared for from the start. In your home, I’m respectful and detail-oriented, ensuring doors, gates, and leashes are handled carefully at all times. Walks are attentive and controlled, with a focus on safety, awareness, and your dog’s comfort level. With my background in shelter volunteering, I’m experienced with a range of temperaments and prioritize calm, positive interactions. I also provide regular updates, so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands while you’re away.
“Great communications (several check ins, including picture) to let me know my mini goldendoodle Enzo was settling in with the other dogs and doing well during his first day. Enzo was calm and confident when I picked him up - indicating it was a good experience for him too :) Thanks!”
“Rachel was awesome! She answered my request fast, and accommodated watching my dog on very short notice. She sent me pictures right away, was communicative and super sweet. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Absolute wonderful rovers, will definitely be rebooking in the future!! Thank you so much Ramon and Nicole for taking such good care of our boys!! They loved their stay 🥰🥰”
“We feel like we won the lottery with Stephanie and Willow. Odin is so so so happy to visit and they take such great care of him and he has friends to play with. We are so GRATEFUL!”
“Paige was amazing! She made sure to keep us up to date while we were gone with messages and pictures. We felt completely comfortable with birdie staying there and knew she was in good hands. We will be using Paige again!!”
About: I have been the "go-to" dog sitter for my circle of friends for years, and I’ve realized that the only thing better than having one dog in the house is having two (or three if you have a pair of pups!). I’m opening up my home to Rover guests primarily to provide some social fun for my own dog, Ripley. Ripley is a high-energy ball of joy who loves to play, so if you have a dog that never seems to tire out, they’ll find a kindred spirit here. Whether it's rounds of fetch, wrestling in the yard, or just having a buddy to nap with, your dog will be integrated into our daily routine. What to Expect: • Individualized Attention: Because I only sit 1 family’s dogs at a time, your dogs will get plenty of attention! • Active Days: We specialize in high-energy play. If your dog loves to move, they’ll come home happy and exhausted. • A Present Sitter: I work from home so your dogs will have plenty of face time with me! All dogs with an easy going temperament that are ready to play are welcome. I work from home so your dogs will get plenty of belly rubs and play time. I typically give Ripley a long walk (3 miles) after work that your pup is welcome to join or we can just stick to outdoor play time. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog that would love to play outside with your pup. I will send you daily updates and photos. I am happy to accommodate crate-trained dogs (bring your own crate) or dogs that roam a little bit more free (provided they don’t have destructive tendencies😂). I am a bit of a toasty sleeper so unfortunately no dogs in the bed, but they are welcome to sleep at the foot of my bed or anywhere else in the house!
“These two are SO GOOD with my pup! They have a great backyard, are always welcoming and love on him like I would. My pup never wants to come home at the end of the day 😅”

About: I take my dog (Louie) on walks daily, so I would love to add your dog to our routine! I’ve been dog sitting for 20+ years, in addition to my family always having at least one dog. I personally love smaller dogs. I have experience with rat terriers, cavapoo, yorkies and cavalier king charles breeds. I love pets and think they’re so important to a family! Let me help you keep your pet happy and healthy 😁 I live on the Plaza so I’m in a very walkable part of town, near many parks. I walk my dog in the evenings after work - a quick workout for both of us. We love to walk around Kansas City together! When I’m home, Louie is always right by my side - on the couch, in bed or even while I’m cooking. I crate him most nights and while I’m at work. I live in an apartment so walks are very necessary - we go on at least one a day or we run in my apartment’s dog park. Would love to add your dog to the mix!
“Ron was terrific! I loved that I was able to find a walker in my neighborhood. He and Kerry bonded and they both seemed to love each other’s company.”
“Michael was great! Super quick to respond and willing to help on extremely short notice. My boyfriend and I are super sick and he took time out of his evening to come help our puppy get rid of some energy on a long walk. Much appreciated!”
“Ava does a wonderful job with Truly. She's been walking her daily for the past weeks, and is always punctual and professional. Comnunivation has been clear and easy, and Truly seems to love her walks!”
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. My husband and I currently have 3 cats and 2 dogs of our own - all rescues! We tend to gravitate towards the more challenging types, (older, behaviorally "challenged", or generally the "once you get to know them, they're really sweet" type). I've managed two different Doggy Day Care facilities: one here in KC, and another in White Plains, NY. I've also got years of experience working with dog rescue groups here in KC. Because of all this experience, there's no pet I can't handle. I'm comfortable with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes and attitudes! My current full time job is 100% remote, so I'm very flexible when it comes to your pet care needs, (pop-ins or longer stays. As long as you have wifi, I'm good). From my time working in professional pet care, I'm very used to all types of situations. I free-feed my own pets, but I have no problem following your feeding/care schedules, or maintaining a medication regimen.
“Came over the day before to meet Sawyer. Went for walk on trail near my house even though I said they could just walk the neighborhood. Went above and beyond, would book again!”
“Amber has been absolutely wonderful with my dog! She is communicative, shows good judgment and is excellent to work with. We are very thankful for her walks and attentiveness.”
About: I have cared for my friend’s dogs while they are away many times. I enjoy providing animals with enrichment and making sure they get ample exercise. I am careful around new dogs to let them show me what kind of care they prefer, and strive to make my time with them as enjoyable as possible for both of us. I have full time evening employment. I am available to care for pets Sunday-Thursday 9am to 2pm (meaning my latest available visit would start at 1:30pm for an 30 min visit), and All day Fridays and Saturdays! I have lots of experience with sneaky animals who love eating things they are not supposed to eat or hiding in places they should not be. I am diligent with putting away foodstuffs and making sure doors/ screens are shut. Please let me know if your pet has these behaviors so I can be prepared before the visit.
“Emily went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable since we are new to having a dog walker. Emily’s updates and pictures were fantastic. Cyrus loved her snuggles and pets! He was nice and tired after a 2 mile walk.”
“Lori has been wonderful with my goldendoodle! She is reliable and dedicated to her clients. She has been easy to work with and flexible with scheduling. I always know that my pup will be in good hands on his daily walk, and I receive several photo updates to prove it :D”
“Kimball is wonderful! She happily met our pup beforehand and was very professional and attentive to her needs. She did a great job of walking her and loving on her, making sure she got a good walk in while we are at work.”
“Sarah is always so great with my dog and he loves going on walks with her! She is so quick to respond to messages and really flexible with my hectic schedule! Would definitely recommend her working with any and all dogs :)”
“Chandler was wonderful. Alton loved her right away, and he’s usually a good judge of character. Not only was she fantastic with Alton, she was easy to work with and sent so many great pictures! Highly recommend.”

“This was our first time ever leaving our dog with someone. Actually, it was his first time staying with anyone at all, so we were very anxious and worried about him—we really care about him like our own child. That’s why it was so important for us to find someone responsible. When I saw Olga’s profile and read her reviews, I immediately felt like she was the right person for us. They are very friendly and gave us such a warm welcome. She did everything to help Tyson feel comfortable, especially since he was very nervous at first. Olga always kept us updated, sent photos, and responded to my messages every time. I’m truly very grateful to her for taking such great care of Tyson. We will definitely be reaching out again.”

“Tori and the kids, thank you so much for hosting Koda. We're so happy to see that Koda is settling in so well and getting all the snuggles. She's already feeling right at home. Thank you again for taking such great care of Koda.”
