Highly-rated overnight sitters - Avon
“Kristy was amazing!! She sent pictures and updates everyday and was very communicative. She took our pups on an adventure and even went the extra mile and gave one of them a bath. Ranger and Koda had a great time and will definitely be visiting again!!”
“From the moment I met Brittney and Max I felt very comfortable having them watch Seamus. Their dog and kids were perfect companions for him and guaranteed he’d get plenty of love and affection. I also received plenty of pictures from Brittney which put me at ease and was a nice touch when I was missing him. He got plenty of time outdoors, cuddles, and play time. I will definitely be using this family in the future.”
“My little Maltese is very attached to me and is very much a lap dog and gets on our furniture. We left him with Bridget for 8 days and I felt very comfortable with her when we did our met and greet with her. She sent me pictures every day of my baby and he pretty much got to run her living room like he would do in my house. He was up on her furnature making himself at home. I could tell in the pictures that my dog was comfortable so that made my time away more enjoyable and I wasn't worrying about my doggie. I would recommend her everytime and do plan on using her again. He was well cared for.”
“Chloe and Collin were recommended to me, and I’m very grateful for their hospitality. They extended Tucker’s stay for us due to an unforeseen circumstance, which we appreciate immensely.”
“John and Rachael are the absolute best you will ever find to care for your hounds, amazing and professional in every way! My pack is high energy and one in particular can get a little bossy around new people. John and Rachael were extremely patient and caring to ensure the little boss man felt safe and comfortable, putting his mind at ease as well as my own! They provided updates and pictures, and I could tell my dogs had a great time during their stay, getting lots of exercise in the yard and then lounging on the family as if it were their own home. The whole was family was simply fantastic in every way, they and their kids helped me move and pack up the crates, treats, and dishes, it was like white-glove service at the doggie hotel. I will for certain be bringing my crew back to them every chance I get!!”
“Carly took excellent care of Titus and we appreciate her attention to detail and communication. Titus can be difficult for some sitters being a big dog with quirks so we are grateful to find a sitter who is able to provide quality care. Will definitely book her again!”
“Ben and Cassie are extremely kind. They were accommodating to us forgetting our dog food, updated us during Ivy’s stay and were very professional. We will be using them again in the future, overall a great experience.”
“Stephen and his family were great with our dog (and family member) Rainey. So much better to have a loving family take care of her than boarding her. I highly recommend them. Scott”
“I had never boarded my dog before, and Saige made the process seamless. I had many questions and had to change a few timelines at last minute and she was very patient with me! My Great Pyrenees chewed a little sore on her paw and Saige tended to it which I very much appreciated. I enjoyed getting and reports of how Willow was doing. I will use Saige again! Thank you!”
“Stevie was great! She worked with our schedule for dropping off and picking up. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our furry family member was in good hands.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Griffin made the experience (from pre-booking to pick up) an absolute breeze - he made us feel so comfortable, put our mind's at ease, and had great communication. He proactively sent frequent video, photo, and text updates of our puppy and was very responsive when we checked in! I love that he has a dog of his own and they both became fast friends. We will 100% rebook with Griffin and will recommend him to anyone needing services!”
“Derrika was absolutely phenomenal with Baker!!! She went above and beyond, truly treating him like family. She’s so genuine, caring, and attentive. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was not only safe but truly LOVED. I can’t recommend her enough!!!”
“This was our first time boarding with Michael and Danielle. They were very easy to work with. I received photos throughout my dog’s stay. They took great care of Toby and I felt like he was safe. Michael was very honest with me when I asked about some behaviors. I really appreciated that! We usually take Toby with us when we travel, but on the occasions we do not take him, I will definitely be sending Toby to Michael and Danielle for care. Thank you so much!”
“Sharon helped us when we needed a sitter last minute for our Escobar. She kept us updated with pictures and videos! Escobar was well loved and cared for while we were away!!”
“Really wonderful sitter! Our elderly dog was well taken care of, and I got a lot of great updates. Our Ainsley is historically stressed when away from home, but she was comfortable enough to rest, eat, and learn how to use the doggy-door on her own! Definitely a rebook if/when we have to leave our girl again.”
“Lainey just had her first stay with Billie and it was for two weeks. Lainey has some separation anxiety and, if I'm being honest, so do I. But Billie made our two weeks apart so easy and seamless. I had a couple scheduling issues with pickup, like my flight home being delayed, and Billie was entirely understanding, accommodating, and flexible, which was especially appreciated. I know Lainey had a great time with Billie and am grateful for the several photos and check-ins Billie provided. Definitely going to be a repeat customer!”
“Angela was absolutely wonderful! She’s very easy to work with and was willing to let me extend his stay when my flight was delayed. She has a plethora of fun friends that he could play and cuddle with. I only had to bring Ham and his food as she took care of the rest; she ate even wrestled him in his carrier so all I had to do at pick up was scoop him into the car. She’s my go to now for sure!”
“Had troubles with travels, dogs going into heat, and anything else that could of happened. MacKenzie always spoils my pops and take away all my stress 💛”
“I was super skeptical about using this app. My pup doesn’t always do the greatest being away from me. Let me tell you, I am super thankful to have found Erin. She does an amazing job. She communicates and updates you frequently. She has been extremely flexible and patient with me when I have ran late.”

“Great having Saige as my first sitter! We met at a Starbucks to do a meet and greet and I instantly felt comfortable. Scary bringing a stranger into your home these days, so I was thankful she was open to answering any questions and wanted me to feel comfortable. Days later, I then had Saige come to my home to meet my cat and see the space to ensure she would also be comfortable sitting at my home. She petsitted or pet sat(?) lol, for 4 days and there’s hardly a hint that she was ever here - meaning she left the place as she found it and didn’t leave a mess or anything. I don’t think my kitty ever got super used to having a stranger in her home but that’s not Saige’s fault. My kitty is just super shy and takes a while to warm up to strangers. I just asked that Saige respect her boundaries and space and I believe she did that! My kitty is almost 16 years old and I just really wanted that reassurance of having someone around more often than just bopping in for 15 mins a day - so I’m thankful for finding this service and the sitting going smoothly! Would book Saige again!”
“Kaitlin was great! She was happy to play with my puppy and sent me picture updates from her drop ins! My doggo looked very happy and well-taken care of! I would definitely use Kaitlin again in the future!”
“Morgan was great with Wilson the first night! I was able to be worry-free at work while she was there. She was very thorough and updating me and got Wilson everything he needed at drop in!”
“Cameron took great care of my cat while I was out of town! I had scheduled drop in visits and she made sure he had food, water and treats and she spent a good amount of time just loving on him! She sent lots of pictures and I could see he was happy and content while I was away. Thank you, Cameron!”
“I really appreciate Aliceyns help taking care of our Turkeys while I was catching up with a friend from out of town. There aren't many I trust with taking care of them while I'm away and she gave me peace of mind so I could focus on having a good time. We'll be requesting Aliceyn in the future. Thanks!”
“Jill is The best as usual! She takes care of the three cats and then anything I might need like scooping litter or getting trash to the curb so I didn’t miss trash day while I was away. I highly recommend Jill for my pet needs and don’t even think I’d take a trip if Jill were unavailable! The best!”
“Leaving my 14-month-old cat, Oreo, for the first time was nerve-wracking, but Kristi made the entire experience so easy. She was immediately responsive from the time I booked, through scheduling, drop-off, and pickup, and always answered my messages quickly. She sent plenty of updates and photos during Oreo’s 3-night stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked Oreo up, she meowed the whole ride home like she was telling me all about her vacation while I was on my vacation! 😂 I’m so grateful for the wonderful care Kristi and her family gave Oreo, and I will definitely consider booking with them again!”
“She is magnificent trustworthy on time wonderful wonderful person so decent and so honest and so classy and so helpful. Thank you for helping me today. Such a short notice. Appreciate that God bless you. Hopefully, we see you soon.”
About: I’ve owned two cats since I was a baby, as well as other experience with cats from family and friends both for fun and taking care of them in general. I have cleaned litter boxes, changed them, fed cats and provided water for them, on top of playing with them of course. I love cats and I would be very happy to watch or care for your cats!
“Elise was great. I didn't worry about our kitties during our trip. She sent pictures of them every day and they always looked happy and content. Thanks for doing a great job Elise!”
“Katie helped us in a stressful time to find our dog that went missing. She also took on more time than originally agreed and her husband helped too. Nothing but positive things to say. She gives grest updates and does exactly as agreed.”
About: I've been a cat owner all my life, and for the past 12 years I've volunteered with animal rescue organizations. I've had the opportunity to learn from my own animals, foster animals and feline behavior professionals and veterinarians. For the past two years I've run my own licensed, foster based cat rescue organization. I am very passionate about feline care in so many ways. I have experience with and am comfortable with special needs cats, medicating, giving fluids and injections. I have a flexible schedule operating my rescue organization and the freedom to schedule my days as needed. With a few days advance planning I can work with most schedules. I will care for your cats in your own home, their familiar environment. Basic care of course, feeding, watering, cleaning litterbox and the cat's environment. And depending on the cat's needs and personality I can build trust, sit with them for companionship and attention, provide playtime, etc.
About: I’ve had and cared for pets for as long as I can remember. Currently I have two big babies, Duke and Bandit. I have cared for many of my friends and families animals over the years and I am excited for the opportunity to meet and care for more fur babies. I worked at a Vets office for a little less than a year. I worked in reception then worked as an animal care taker. Some of my responsibilities included daily walks, Animal playtime as well as bathing. I’ve been a SAHM for the last couple years and with my children getting ready to head back to school i will have a pretty open schedule to be able to care for your fur babies. I love going for walks and meeting new pets. I have a fenced yard and two pups to keep your babies company. With my experience working at a Veterinarians office I am aware of signs to watch for when your fur baby might need some space or when they may not be feeling like themselves.
“Nicholas was a great cat sitter for us! He made sure to give her lots of love and play time. This was the first time away from our cat and we loved the daily updates and pictures Nicholas sent us. We definitely recommend him for all your pet-sitting needs!”
“Amy done drop in visits for us with our 2 pups while we went on vacation. She was wonderful and the pups loved her. Even our cat that has nothing to do with strangers came out to visit her while she was there which is not normal. Will definitely use her again if need someone to come cheek on them again.”

“Sophie had a fun day playing with Sprout and was well taken care of while I was away. She came home exhausted, and for me a tired pup is a happy one. :) Thank you for all the photos and vids Kathleen! Hope Sophie gets to visit and play again soon!”
“We had a wonderful experience, Shawn kept me up to date with pics and texts telling me how my pup was doing thru the trip. Very trustworthy and will definitely be booking another trip for Bentley soon with Shawn!”

“Billie gives such kind, loving care to Ginger. She makes adorably decorated little jars of home made treats for special holidays and is a wonderful caregiver to our senior dog. Her own dog is an easy going older fella himself, and they ignore each other companionable. 😄”
“Leslie kept me updated on Pookie and answered all of my questions, concerns. I felt safe leaving my dog with her. She gave him his eyedrops as instructed. Pookie will be most definitely will be staying with her next time I go out of town !”
“Merley was great! Very hospitable and welcoming. Her own dog met ours and they were friends in less than ten seconds! We will use Merley again when we are back in her area.”
About: I grew up surrounded by lots of animals! I love dogs of all sizes and kinds, although I have to say my favorite is any smush faced breed! Sadly, I recently lost my baby boy, an english bulldog, Dozer. But I still have my kitty, Ms. Olive 🫒 I really miss the happiness a dog brings and I’d love to care for, walk, and love your fur babies as if they were my own!! I have experience with anxious, reactive pets and will always put my best foot forward for them. I have also cared for pets with medications and special regimens. I am very free to enjoy time with your pet! I do online school and have a part time job that is less than 20 hours a week. I will care for your pets as my own and follow all safety measures in order to keep them safe, happy, and healthy. I believe our pets are our children and should be loved and taken care of as such!
About: I have had pets since I was a young child. My children have had pets since they were babies. My oldest two girls are excited to help and play with your fur babies. Both have done dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family overnight and during the day. I currently work during the week, but my husband and children are home all day. We are all home on the weekends and evenings. We currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats. We do not a have a fenced in yard, but have several leashes. We also have crates that we use for 2 of our younger dogs when we leave the house. Dogs are out and about at all times when we are home. We go for walks in the evenings when it’s not too hot. Our cats are out at all times and have no trouble with the dogs.
“Derrika was great with our pup! She was very professional and I had a high degree of confidence that our little guy was well cared for and loved while we were away. I loved feeling like it brought her joy to be with him too and not just a transaction. We’ll definitely be back!”
About: If you're looking for genuine, dedicated care, look no further! My name is Ryan, and as a full-time, stay-at-home step-dad, I have the inherent flexibility and unwavering devotion to ensure your pets have a comfortable, fun, and personalized stay. With no children of my own, my commitment is complete: I treat every animal I care for as my own child. I recently made the move from California and am using the financial stability created through different ventures to pursue one of my passions: pet sitting. This isn't a job for me; it's a heartfelt side venture, meaning your pet gets my undivided attention during their stay. My goal is simple: for your animals to have the absolute best, most loving experience possible while you're away. Unlike part-time sitters who squeeze visits between other obligations, my schedule is structured around consistent pet care and family time. As a stay at home pet parent, caring for my two Golden Retrievers and cat forms as a constant of my daily routine. This means all walks, feeding times, and play sessions are scheduled with precision and are not subject to outside work conflicts. Whether I am providing in-home boarding or day stays, I am always present and available. I commit to maintaining your pet's exact routine, from specific medication times to late-night potty breaks, ensuring a stable, predictable, and stress-free experience. 1. Trust and Availability Trust is the foundation of my service. As a full-time, stay-at-home sitter, your pet receives genuine, focused attention that is simply unmatched. My flexible schedule means I am not juggling another job; I am fully dedicated to their care. This constant presence allows me to quickly recognize any change in behavior, diet, or health and respond immediately. Please feel free to observe my home environment and my interactions with my two Golden Retrievers and cat. I provide updates, photos, and communication so you always feel connected and assured that your pet is safe and thriving. 2. In My Home (Boarding/Daycare) For in-home boarding, I provide a safe, secure, and pet-proofed environment. My home is designed to be a comfortable, low-stress retreat. Dogs enjoy a consistent routine of feeding, play, and scheduled outdoor time in a fenced yard (with or without my two dogs- preference based). All medications are administered exactly as prescribed and logged. For the safety of everyone, only pets who are current on vaccinations and demonstrate friendly temperaments are accepted. The environment is always low-density, meaning I take a limited number of guests at any time to guarantee that every animal receives the maximum amount of personal attention, love, and care.
“Amazing. Sylveena is wonderful. She fit me in last minute and my Snick loved being there. She sent plenty of photos and most of all my baby slept like a baby when I picked her up. Sylveena is great and I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I own a dog myself and have raised her and trained her on my own since I was 14. I love being surrounded by all types of dogs and their own little personalities. I’m a college student, so with the summer starting I want to dedicate my time spending it with dogs! I enjoy taking them on walks to give both of us some exercise! I care for my own dog by prioritizing activness. She loves to go outside, with our fenched in backyard, and we play with a ball. I also love taking her for walks. But outside time isn’t always available, so I like to teach her new tricks or (gently) play with a toy inside. I think it’s also important to prioritize their health, making sure they eat and drink plenty of water.
About: Hi! I’m new to Rover and would love the opportunity to earn your trust and care for your furry family members. If you’re looking for someone dependable, loving, and experienced with dogs of all ages and personalities, I’d be honored if you’d book with me and help me get started on Rover! I have found a passion for being kind and loving to every dog I meet. I’ve noticed I’m naturally great at bonding with dogs and gently helping with training. What better way to fill my cup than by spending time with animals while helping people feel confident their pets are truly cared for? I currently have two dogs: JT, a Jack Russell Beagle mix, and Miss Kahlani Ann, a 3 year old Rat Terrier Corgi mix. I adopted JT when he was 5 years old and have helped him adjust to stairs, car rides, and a daily routine that includes dog park visits. Kahlani Ann keeps life fun with her playful personality and energy. Before them, I shared 10 incredible years with Stewart, my soul dog, who joined me for road trips, everyday life, and miles of running together. Stewart shaped not only my love for animals but how I love them: deeply, patiently, and fully present. I also had a dog named Hoagie for 17 years. He sparked my lifelong love for dogs and taught me just how special the bond between people and pets can be. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to seniors needing gentler attention. As a teacher, I bring calm energy, structure, and clear communication to every interaction. Whether your dog needs exercise, affection, or quiet companionship, I treat each pet like they’re my own. I truly understand the emotions that come with leaving your dog because pets are family. I’ll always go above and beyond to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet feels safe, seen, and cared for. I’m currently off for the summer, which means I have full availability for pet care — especially daytime walks and drop-in visits. This is the perfect time for me to give your pet consistent attention, playtime, and companionship while I build a strong routine with these services. As I build my Rover presence, I’m offering discounted rates for my first few clients. Just reach out and let’s chat! As the school year begins, I’ll continue to offer evening and weekend availability, along with care during school holidays. I'm currently focusing on getting drop-in visits and walks running smoothly and will always do my best to work around your pet’s needs and your schedule. When I care for pets in their own home, I treat the space with the same respect I would want for mine. I follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules to gate locks — and take time to learn your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I do love to be outside and play with our pups if they won't leash walk as well. We will spend the time together! I make sure doors are locked, leashes are secure, and that your pet is never rushed or overwhelmed. I build trust by being consistent, calm, and communicative. Whether it's a walk or a drop-in, I always take time to greet your pet with warmth and patience so they feel safe while you're away. I also send updates and photos, so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a positive, low-stress experience — one where your pet feels loved, and you feel peace of mind.
“Katlin is great, Brew is comfortable with her and I immediately knew she would be a good fit the moment we met. She is prompt, communicative and has experience with dogs of all sizes (having a larger dog this is such a relief)! I would absolutely recommend her and will continue to book with Katlin.”
“Our pups had a great time with Jill! She even managed our stubborn dog and made him feel special even though he would only take one walk with her the whole time! We are so glad we reached out for Jill to help us with our pups! We would certainly use her again for future visits!”
About: What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and ability to make pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, including senior dogs and anxious pets. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine, get plenty of attention, and care, and I always keep owners updated with messages and pictures so they feel confident their pets are in good hands. Since I am currently on summer break, I have a fairly flexible schedule and free time to dedicate to pets throughout the day. This allows me to give dogs consistent attention, exercise, playtime, walks, and care while keeping them on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I also keep the home clean, provide updates and pictures to owners, and make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their family is away.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and animals hold a special place in my heart . I’m currently a Pre-Veterinary student at the University of Central Missouri, and for the past five years, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant at Pleasant Hill Animal Clinic, where my dad is a veterinarian. I’ve also been pet sitting for the past two years, caring for pets of all ages—from playful 10-month-old to sweet 12-year-old seniors. I have experience administering medications, including insulin injections for diabetic dogs, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I truly consider the dogs I care for as part of my extended family, and I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend and give them the same love and attention I’d give my own. I currently work part-time as a veterinary assistant, and I’m typically available every day except Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. On those days, I occasionally have morning or afternoon availability, and I’m always available after 6 PM. I offer in-home care, boarding, and drop-in visits. Even on my busiest days, I always have a lunch break, so I’m never away from pets in my care for more than six hours at a time. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priority, and I strive to provide dependable, loving care at all times. I have a fully fenced yard and one friendly Great Dane who can be easily kenneled or separated as needed. My home also features a dedicated, dog-proofed room that’s perfect for free roaming and playtime. Whether your pup prefers quiet relaxation or active engagement, I’m able to provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment tailored to their needs.
About: I’ve grown with cats since I was 4, my husband and I have 4 cats of our own along with a lab, she is our second Lab since 2010. I love to love on our furry friends that The Lord has created for us and to help take care of them. With cats-feeding, scooping/changing litter boxes. With dogs walking them and playing. With both loving on them. While my husband is in the profile picture, he will not be assisting with care. Currently I am not employed so my schedule is pretty open and flexible during the week, to either stop in for a quick need or if the owners are gone for a week or weekend. While this picture is of me and my husband, he will not be assisting with the care of your animal. We let our cats have run of our home and with our lab she is kennel trained, if my husband and I are gone for 24 hours or more we board her. With our cats we have one of my sisters or friend come and drop in to check on them and feed them.
“Hollys communication is great! I appreciate that she was willing to cut walks short during a heat wave and hang with Pepe inside a little bit to give him the full time together!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 7 and dogs since I was 17! Friends and family have trusted me to take care of and walk their dogs when they need. I am also a zookeeper at the Kansas City Zoo & Aquarium and have two cats of my own! I work full-time at the Kansas City Zoo & Aquarium, but I am available wednesday evenings, thursdays, and fridays to give your pets all the time, attention, and care they need! During drop by visits, I will make sure your pet gets a potty break, food and water if needed, and lots of love and attention!
About: I have had experience with cats my whole life, dogs about half. I own two cats and have had them since I was born, but I have had friends and family with dogs along the years. I pet sit often for my Uncle and Aunt for their three dogs, and other family members for their dogs and or cats. I have plenty experience walking dogs, taking them outside, cleaning up after both animals (litter boxes or not), as well as both playing and feeding them! I am currently working part time, so I will have a decent amount of time to care for your pets! My timeframe does vary, but I am very punctual and flexible with my times. I am unavailable most every Sunday, but I will always let you know what works best for me so I can help you out! I love getting to know their personalities and sitting or playing with them, no matter how mellow or how excited! It is very important to me that I learn their boundaries and behaviors so I can give them my best care, like offering my hands out for them to smell or standing or sitting a certain distance away from them until they are comfortable with me.

I can provide constant companionship, regular check-ins, and ensure that pets receive the attention and care they need throughout the day.

About: I am home all day with my dog , the gentle giant Charlie, and my toddler. I take them to go on walks, play in the backyard, and everything in my house is baby proof and dog proof. My last dog would randomly be dog aggressive so I know how to handle those situations. I’m always excited to meet a new dog. I’m home full time so my day consists of hanging out with my toddler and dog. I have a very open schedule and can pick up pets if needed. I treat pets with respect and love. I use positive reinforcement (treats/praise). Every pet has their own personality and quirks that are so fun to learn about. I will also abide by any rules you have in place for your pet since consistency is important for a dog.
About: Hello! My name is Mak! I am a dog lover and enthusiast! I've had animals growing up my entire life and I have four pets of my own; two cats, a Pembroke corgi, and a black lab. We can't wait to meet your best friend! I'm sure we will have lots of fun with activities, car rides, and more. I have led two pets through therapeutic trainings, have cared for over 55 pets through Rover since 2019, and have the resources to ensure your baby is comfortable while you’re away. Put your buddy in good hands when you can't be home and enjoy knowing your best pal is at a safe place. I currently work from home so I am here for your dogs all day! We start the day with breakfast, potty breaks, play time, then we nap a bit; next we have lunch/ dinner and play some more! I have a large sized fenced in back yard. I also have two dogs of my own. We will take naps, snuggle, play fetch, go on car rides, to the park or nature, and enjoy a few snacks. :)
About: I have been around dogs my entire life and like most people, I love them. I am mom to Cooper, an almost 2 year old Cocker Spaniel/Border Collie mix. He is a shy, fearful, and anxious dog but he is becoming more and more outgoing and playful every day! I have years of experience with all types of dogs as my aunt fostered for Wayside Waifs and had no fewer than 3 dogs of her own at all times. From puppies to seniors, small to large, I’ve spent time with all of them. I currently live with my sister and her dog, Nala, who is a 4-year-old German Shepard mix…an energetic one! I am a substitute teacher and can help out after 3 o'clock on weekdays and most weekends! I would not be able to check-in in the mornings or in the middle of the day as I will be at school. I have personal experience with bathing dogs, crating, giving pills to dogs, walking, and more. I have looked after multiple friend’s and family’s pets for the past 10 years and as stated above, have experience withal a range of dogs!
About: I am a 35 year old accountant that lives Lee’s Summit and works from home full time. I have a 6 month old labradoodle puppy named Alabama who keeps us on our toes. She loves to play and has quite the personality. She has never met a dog she didn’t want to be friends with. I also have an 8 year old Great Dane that is more on the senior side. She mainly sleeps and doesn’t interact much. We have a 2 year old and a 7 year old that are with us part time but they are very well versed in being around new pets. I am a big dog lover and am excited to meet new fur ‘friends’. I am very active and have many years of experience with my own pets. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and will treat them as such.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since age 10. Every time family, friends and neighbors are out of town, I’m the one to call. I’m flexible with my schedule and very responsible. I am working part time which means I have time to play with your pups! Not only that I personally will want to spend more time with them I will make sure your dogs specific needs and wants are met beyond expectations. You can have trust in me that I will get all responsibility done.

“Chloe and Collin were recommended to me, and I’m very grateful for their hospitality. They extended Tucker’s stay for us due to an unforeseen circumstance, which we appreciate immensely.”
“John and Rachael are the absolute best you will ever find to care for your hounds, amazing and professional in every way! My pack is high energy and one in particular can get a little bossy around new people. John and Rachael were extremely patient and caring to ensure the little boss man felt safe and comfortable, putting his mind at ease as well as my own! They provided updates and pictures, and I could tell my dogs had a great time during their stay, getting lots of exercise in the yard and then lounging on the family as if it were their own home. The whole was family was simply fantastic in every way, they and their kids helped me move and pack up the crates, treats, and dishes, it was like white-glove service at the doggie hotel. I will for certain be bringing my crew back to them every chance I get!!”
“Carly took excellent care of Titus and we appreciate her attention to detail and communication. Titus can be difficult for some sitters being a big dog with quirks so we are grateful to find a sitter who is able to provide quality care. Will definitely book her again!”
“Ben and Cassie are extremely kind. They were accommodating to us forgetting our dog food, updated us during Ivy’s stay and were very professional. We will be using them again in the future, overall a great experience.”
“I had never boarded my dog before, and Saige made the process seamless. I had many questions and had to change a few timelines at last minute and she was very patient with me! My Great Pyrenees chewed a little sore on her paw and Saige tended to it which I very much appreciated. I enjoyed getting and reports of how Willow was doing. I will use Saige again! Thank you!”
“Stevie was great! She worked with our schedule for dropping off and picking up. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our furry family member was in good hands.”
“Really wonderful sitter! Our elderly dog was well taken care of, and I got a lot of great updates. Our Ainsley is historically stressed when away from home, but she was comfortable enough to rest, eat, and learn how to use the doggy-door on her own! Definitely a rebook if/when we have to leave our girl again.”
“Had troubles with travels, dogs going into heat, and anything else that could of happened. MacKenzie always spoils my pops and take away all my stress 💛”
“I was super skeptical about using this app. My pup doesn’t always do the greatest being away from me. Let me tell you, I am super thankful to have found Erin. She does an amazing job. She communicates and updates you frequently. She has been extremely flexible and patient with me when I have ran late.”
“Lindsey was great! She sent me texts and lots of pics! You know she really cares for your fur baby while you are away. We felt really comfortable leaving Jake with her. I highly recommend if you need a sitter!!”
“Our Remi had the best time with Sylveena and her family. We received so many pictures, updates and notes throughout the days we were gone, it was so appreciated. She even kept a mindful watch over her time outside due to the intense heat we’re experiencing. It’s obvious that Sylveena loves animals and we are so happy to have found her!”
“Bubba was very happy and content when we picked him up. He was tired from all the activity and play. A very positive experience for us and was the first experience for us using Rover. Nate was great with Bubba and flexible also to meet some extra requests extending our sitting needs .”
“Medley was incredible. She stepping in at the last minute. Her home is full of love and care. Willow had all the play and snuggles she could handle. Bruno the dog is super patient and gentle. I would leave our pups here anytime!!!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my Blue Heeler received! When I picked her up after two nights, she was calm, content, and completely at ease — no anxiety at all, which says everything about the environment she was kept in. The dog area was spacious and looked brand new, giving her plenty of room to feel comfortable. I’ll definitely be back!”
“Shelly made the entire process easy. You can tell they love dogs and take good care of the fur babies. We would recommend Shelly and plan to board with her whenever the need arises.”
“Shawn was so great!! He met us for a meet and greet before boarding, and then when we brought the dogs back to stay they were excited as soon as they saw his neighborhood again. He took excellent care of our two pups over the weekend! He clearly was very attentive to my dogs while they were in his care because they came home happy and exhausted! He checked in daily and provided pictures of our happy pups while they were with him. He really went above and beyond and we will absolutely be using him again in the future because our dogs LOVED him.”
“Katy did a great job of taking care of my dog! She was also great about answering any questions or concerns I had. I loved getting the updates and pics of how my dog was doing. It helped make being away from her a lot easier knowing she was being well taken care of and loved.”
