“This was our dog's second stay with Deana and Gerald. They again took wonderful care of Savannah. They go out of their way to make sure she feels comfortable and are willing to deal with her little quirks. It is obvious that they love dogs! We are grateful to have found Deana and Gerald and highly recommend them!”
“Jenny was absolutely wonderful! Our first time using rover and she made us feel so confident that Stella was in great hands during our time away. She sent regular updates and photos every day, it was clear Stella trusted her very much!”
“We were really happy with the care Kodiak received during her stay. We loved the picture updates and hearing what she was up to while we were gone. Kodi came home much more relaxed than she ever has after staying at the kennel. Thanks for taking care of our girl! We will definitely look to book again for future care.”
About: Warning ⚠️! Your furry companion will be worn out with fun activities in my large fenced in backyard, with additional happy walks and hikes. When it's time to rest, they will enjoy relaxing in my spacious clean home with plenty of love and care. I am a stay-at-home mom with children who attend summer camps. Drop off can be as early as 7:00 a.m. and for overnight stays 6:00 p.m. Pick up times can be negotiated. Large safe neighborhood, in the heart of Independence. You can trust that I will be with your pet for most of the day and I always let the owners know if I have errands to run or appointments to attend.

At no time will the children be left with your pet alone. When my husband is in town, he arrives home around 5:45 every evening and is a big dog lover. He misses having a dog but travels too much for the military.
“Want to thank Abbie for watching our 2 dogs Winston and Jet for 4 days while we went on a short vacation. She was easy to work with and provkded text updates and pics of our dogs playing and relaxing at her home. Would recommend. Thanks again Abbie!!”
“Sabrennah was an excellent sitter for my two dogs, Annie and Duke. Both have special needs: Annie is 15, and slowing down; Duke was rescued from a hoarding situation and has never been apart from me since his adoption 1.5 years ago. He is anxious and fearful, and my plan had been for him to be boarded at the vet’s with sedation, but my vet closed their boarding facility. I introduced Duke to Sabrennah a couple hours at a time, and after his second visit, it was clear that he would be happy with her. Sabrennah is a warm and gentle soul who loves animals. She communicates throughout your pet’s stay. You can trust her with your cherished pets!”
“Leeann has cared for our girl, Cami, on two occasions, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! She provides excellent care, keeping us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos, which gives us such peace of mind while we’re away. Her communication is outstanding—always clear, timely, and professional. What truly sets Leeann apart is her dedication. When a snowstorm disrupted our travel plans, she didn’t hesitate to extend Cami’s stay for two extra days, ensuring she was safe and well cared for. That level of flexibility and kindness means the world to us. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who is thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely loves what she does, we wholeheartedly recommend Leeann. Your fur baby will be in the best hands!”
“Kelti was awesome with my pup. I could tell she had a great time with their dogs and they even took her with them to a dog friendly brewery! The photo updates were perfect!”
“Marina and Michael took excellent care of our furry baby while we went on a trip and left her for the first time ever. She sent lots of updates with pics and made it so much easier being without our girl for a week, knowing she was in good hands :-)”
“Jane was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience! She went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable with the stay by meeting Poppy beforehand, sent pictures and updates while she was there, and Poppy was happy (and worn out) when we picked her up! We will 100% be using Jane again, highly recommend.”
“Patricia was on top of communication and took great care of our boy while we were gone! She sent updates frequently and made us feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend her! Thank you so so much Patricia!”
About: Growing up, I was always the go-to dog sitter for family and friends. From playful puppies to senior pups, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities in my home and theirs. I learned early on how to give each dog the individual attention they need—whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, feeding schedules, or just cozy couch cuddles. Those experiences taught me how important it is to create a safe, loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and happy while their families are away. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and would be thrilled to bring that same care and reliability to your furry family members. I have taken care of dogs with medical needs(diabetes) and other condition and know hiw to care for them. I work from home Monday- Friday so I have plenty of time to let them out and take care of them. I don’t go out too much on the weekends and if I do I’m usually at the golf course and then back home. My house is very pet friendly. My yard is completely fenced in. I do not mind that they go on the couch. I will love your pets as you love them.
“Tammi always does an excellent job with my dogs. My older dog takes a lot of medication and I never worry, bc she takes such great care of him. She sends updates and pics, which I love. Her home is clean and neat and the backyard is a dog oasis. Tammi is fabulous!”

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 16 years old. I am often asked by coworkers of family to house sit during their vacations. I have pet sat dogs, cats, fish, and even chickens! I am comfortable waking, giving medication, and cuddling (my personal favorite), whatever your pup needs! I have two dogs of my own. One of my dogs is a senior and is high need due to his bone cancer. He requires daily medication and will until we are able to remove the leg. My other pup is a rambunctious lab, who is high drive and needs daily stimulation so he doesn’t anger his older brother. I often take him on walks or use the pond near our home to tire him out! I am used to house sitting in all types of homes. If your pup needs a daily walk I am can do that. If they’re an outside pup we can take a walk or even a hike! I stay at the home and don’t leave often. I ask that a physical copy of directions are left so that I can give the 100% proper care and able to contact through phone as well!
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been caring for cats since I was three years old, when I got my first cat, Fluffy. I currently share my home with five rescued cats, including two with special needs—one with FIV and another with neurological challenges—which has given me extensive hands-on experience with medical care, behavior monitoring, and daily medications. I also care for a managed colony of twenty cats on my property that I inherited when I bought my home, so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of feline personalities and needs. I have a particular affinity for senior and special-needs cats, including those with anxiety, and I approach their care with patience, consistency, and respect—on their terms, of course.
“Brooke was great with my kitty. She came in daily for a week and I could tell Ravi was very comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend Brooke to all! This was my first time using Rover and Brooke was very responsive which put me at ease.”
“This was our first time using Mattie to sit our 3 cats and it was the best experience! Mattie was extremely thorough with updates and went above and beyond with taking care of them. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our kitties while we were away!!”
“Bethany was wonderful! She responded at short notice and was able to come by and give our cat soft food and attention. Very reliable. The pics Bethany sent us from her visits were adorable. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Ginger went above and beyond! I just wanted someone to feed Harvey and give him his insulin but she actually cared and played with him! Made me feel better about being gone. Also the Rover Cards I got were some of the cutest pics of him ever!”
“Angela was a wonderful pet sitter. She took great care of my senior cat who needs medication. She was very communicative and friendly, very easy to talk with and a sweet person. Highly recommend.”
About: I have been a pet owner all my life and always have had a passion for animals growing up. I have been professionally pet sitting for many years now. I have 2 rescue dogs named Gemma and Ollie who I absolutely adore. I enjoy what I do and would be happy to watch your fur babies! I do accounting during the day but work from home so I have plenty of time to care and play with your pups! I have flexible drop off and pick up times too because of working remotely. I have a fenced yard with 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. We also have a camera to keep an eye on your pups if we step out for a bit.
“Blake did a great job checking on our cats while we were away! He was even able to help with the inhaler for our cat with asthma and feed our bearded dragon. Would definitely recommend Blake!”
About: I’ve had the privilege of growing up with dogs since the age of 10. I’ve never lived in a house without 1-2 dogs. It’s always been a priority of mine to take my dog on at least a 2 mile walk a day if not longer. I have pet sat for families in the past and fostered a puppy in college. Come July I start school T,TH,F from roughly 9-4:30. Otherwise I will be working my PRN job whenever they are in need and I’m available. Over the past 12-14 years I’ve grown up with dogs living in my household. I currently have one medium sized dog, Nala, whom I recused about 5 years ago. She’s a velcro dog and the sweetest they come. She was 5 months old when we adopted her and it’s always been a priority to enforce socialization from day one. When she was almost the age of 2 we bought a German Shepard, Bo, at 8weeks old who she has grown up and lived with over the past 4 years. Regardless of who they are around we make sure to properly introduce everyone who is welcomed into their/our space. After moving to Lexington Nala moved with me as Bo stayed back home. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to run and play. Nala likes to keep to herself most of the time, but highly enjoys walks, treats, and toys.

About: I have years of pet care experience. I’m great at walking dogs, playing with them, and giving them all the attention they need. I’m different from other sitters and walkers mainly because I have been around pets my whole life. I’ve even done volunteer work with both dogs and cats. I love going to the dog park when the weather is nice plus taking trips to petsmart and Petco to let my dog interact with new animals and people is fun for me. Seeing an animal grow by learning something new or just become more loving is a goal I present myself with every time I care for a dog. I’ve cared for animals so much that I even wanted to become a vet one day.

And I am a very patient person, acquiring that skill as I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and a whole barnyard of animals my whole life.

“Want to thank Abbie for watching our 2 dogs Winston and Jet for 4 days while we went on a short vacation. She was easy to work with and provkded text updates and pics of our dogs playing and relaxing at her home. Would recommend. Thanks again Abbie!!”
“Sabrennah was an excellent sitter for my two dogs, Annie and Duke. Both have special needs: Annie is 15, and slowing down; Duke was rescued from a hoarding situation and has never been apart from me since his adoption 1.5 years ago. He is anxious and fearful, and my plan had been for him to be boarded at the vet’s with sedation, but my vet closed their boarding facility. I introduced Duke to Sabrennah a couple hours at a time, and after his second visit, it was clear that he would be happy with her. Sabrennah is a warm and gentle soul who loves animals. She communicates throughout your pet’s stay. You can trust her with your cherished pets!”
“Kelti was awesome with my pup. I could tell she had a great time with their dogs and they even took her with them to a dog friendly brewery! The photo updates were perfect!”
“Patricia was on top of communication and took great care of our boy while we were gone! She sent updates frequently and made us feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend her! Thank you so so much Patricia!”
About: Growing up, I was always the go-to dog sitter for family and friends. From playful puppies to senior pups, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities in my home and theirs. I learned early on how to give each dog the individual attention they need—whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, feeding schedules, or just cozy couch cuddles. Those experiences taught me how important it is to create a safe, loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and happy while their families are away. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and would be thrilled to bring that same care and reliability to your furry family members. I have taken care of dogs with medical needs(diabetes) and other condition and know hiw to care for them. I work from home Monday- Friday so I have plenty of time to let them out and take care of them. I don’t go out too much on the weekends and if I do I’m usually at the golf course and then back home. My house is very pet friendly. My yard is completely fenced in. I do not mind that they go on the couch. I will love your pets as you love them.
“Tammi always does an excellent job with my dogs. My older dog takes a lot of medication and I never worry, bc she takes such great care of him. She sends updates and pics, which I love. Her home is clean and neat and the backyard is a dog oasis. Tammi is fabulous!”
“Alycia took great care of our dogs and kept us updated throughout their stay. She was very responsive, sent photos and updates, and made us feel comfortable while we were away. We appreciated the communication and would be happy to book with her again.”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“We really loved Mike and Amanda, they treated Rocky and Bella like they were their own and we loved the daily pictures.we will certainly use them again in the future!”
“Lauren and Wynn were great! It was our first time for our 13 year old Havanese, who is a little princess. She was well taken care of. I received pics and updates which were great! She was a very happy girl!”
