“Rhiannon & Rachel are so awesome. They took care of my Jack Russell Betty with incredible care. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to know that their dog will be loved.”
“Crissy’s place was perfect for Eugene! She had small older pups with their own ramp to get on the couch! She sent a couple pics and it was a smooth overnight!”
“Ben and Cassie were fantastic! They sent pictures and updates each day and truly allowed Nellie to be a part of the family for a week. Thank you!”
“Tasha kept our two dogs for a week, while we were away on our honeymoon! We got multiple pictures of each dog, everyday as well as how they were doing. Would definitely recommend Tasha for your dogs sitter!”
“Derrika is the GREATEST! I am so happy I found her. She and her family are so nice and their love of animals is very apparent. I loved the pics she sent throughout the day. Within the first few hours of my Yogis first visit she sent me a pic of my doggo with his head in her sons lap. He only does this when he is EXTREMELY comfortable. Knowing Yogi is in excellent hands helps both his & my separation anxiety when we can’t be together. She is a true gem”

“Jay recently watched my dog, Fergus, while my husband and I were out of town. I appreciated the time he took to talk to us about our Fergus before hand. He wanted to ensure he would be able to provide the best care. Which he did! He told us his plans for caretaking at drop off and gave us updates while we were gone. Our dog is nervous around strangers but Jay strived to make him feel at home.”
“Jessie was great! She treats your dogs like family and gives daily updates on how your pups are doing. It brings such comfort knowing your dogs are being taken care of and loved.”
“This was my first time leaving Oakley with someone and I was really nervous. Erin gave tons of updates and put my mind at ease! Oakley loves going to see her now. I’ll only ever be booking with her in the future.”
“Alyssa is the absolute best! She was very communicative, kind, and treated our dog like one of her own. She made sure he was comfortable and well adjusted while we were gone. I especially loved all the pictures and notes she sent of how our dog was doing throughout his stay. We would absolutely book with Alyssa again!!”
“This was my first time leaving Lucy with a sitter like this, so I was definitely a little anxious. Melissa made the whole experience really easy and kept me updated while I was gone. Lucy came home happy and well taken care of, and I felt like she was in good hands the whole time. I’d definitely trust Melissa with Lucy again!”
“Brittany and Franklin were great hosts! Our dogs loved running around and playing with Franklin in their big back yard and then relaxing with everyone at night! Brittany was great about sending updates of how the dogs were doing and very responsive about any and all questions. Highly recommend and we’ll be reaching out next time we head out of town!”
“My sweet Sadie had a blast! She must have really Enjoyed her time with Susan and her family Because she was so tired when she got back! I was sent pictures and daily updates to reassure my worrying about her. Highly recommend!”
“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!”

“I can't say enough good things about Deidre! She took the best care of our two kitties and really eased my worries while we were on the other side of the world. She was easy to communicate with, reliable, thoughtful, and kind. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for the best pet sitter for their fur babies.”

About: I LOVE cats — and I wish I could have one! I grew up with cats my whole life and love how sweet and silly they are. My dog wouldn’t do well with one, so I’m happy to help out with yours since I can’t have one. I have a consulting business, and just wanting to add this stuff to make some supplemental money for trips and other expenses.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Holmes Park

“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!”
“Ron provided a safe and comfortable setting for an anxious rescue dog who had never before been boarded. He gave Peanut the space he needed and waited for the dog to come around. Any other approach would probably have heightened Peanut's stress. Ron is patient. He also doesn't rely on a cage, another reason we picked him. Hoping for future visits. ”
“Christine and family were great with my Beagle mix Waylon for a quick weekend boarding. Timely updates and plenty of pictures. Thank you so much!”
“Stephanie provided excellent care for Elvis during his daycare! She sent me pictures of him throughout the day. I will be booking with her 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!
“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 🥰🥰”
“Hayley is so warm and personable. She jumped in with my 2 fur babies and was super understanding and accommodating. She truly enjoys dogs and I felt completely relaxed leaving our dogs with her. A++ I highly recommend her.”
“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!”
“Can’t recommend enough. Stephanie was available short notice & super considerate before/during Shiloh’s stay. She kept me up updated & Shiloh seemed very comfortable.”
“I can't thank Griffin enough for taking care of my dog on such short notice. They were incredibly accommodating and provided excellent care. Highly recommended!"”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for our bulldog. He loved her so much and her space was just the right size with a fenced in yard. Highly recommend her and will be using her again.”
“Chris was very responsive and easy to work with. He took great care of our new puppy when we needed someone to watch him during the day. We will definitely continue to use Chris in the future!”
“Allison was fantastic! Ozzie adored her and her dog, and by the third day when I told him he was going to see her he got excited. She kept me updated with lots of photos and was also very understanding of my shifting drop-off and pick-up hours due to the nature of the daytime event I was working. I will definitely be sending Ozzie to stay with her again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone.”
“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!”
“Jessica was great! We needed a sitter in a pinch, and she was there with open arms for our senior dog. He had such a great time relaxing in the warmth with other puppies. I would recommend Jessica: excellent communication, nice picture updates, and overall wonderful experience.”
“Clementine loves staying with Melissa and her family. They do such a great job with her and are great communicators. They are my first choice for doggie daycare!”
About: I’ve been caring for my owns animals since I was young. I have a large home and a large yard perfect for play and sun bathing. I’ve recently moved to working from home full time which will allow me to ensure proper care and love is given at all times. It's all day puppy love around here now. At the moment I have no personal pets of my own. We lost our old beagle over the winter. You can be sure that your family member will be treated as one of my own when they are here in my home. Can provide light grooming (including bathing). Have experience with medical needs as well if needed. I really look forward to the opportunity to watch and love on your puppers.
“This review is slightly overdue but Megan is amazing! She has been working with my puppy for a few months now, letting him spend the day with her. She is great with dogs, spends time teaching him commands, helped with potty training, the works! I cannot recommend her enough to someone looking for a new rover to care for your pup.”

“In the short time we have used Abby as a Rover, she has been a great fit for our family and fur baby, Finn. She has been reliable, responsible, and caring towards her. We appreciate her flexibility with scheduling and ability to work with Finn's specific needs. We would highly recommend Abby to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“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.”
“Amber has been the best! Used her on a weekly-basis for walks.. reliable, flexible with my changing schedule and took great care of my dog who is pretty selective with who he trusts!”
“If I could have Evey as Gus's personal nanny, I would! She is top notch from communication, to pictures, to reliability. She goes the extra mile and truly enjoys what she does and it shows!”
About: I’ve been the resident cat and dog sitter since I was a teen in my family and friend group. I have worked with dogs big and small, and cats of many temperaments. I have been an overnight sitter for both animals, and have experience walking, playing, following routines, and making the pets feel comfortable and loved. I have followed medication routines and given medications for both cats and dogs as well when needed, and am comfortable doing so. I am currently working part time while going to grad school, so I am back and forth from the house and able to check on any pets throughout the day. My home has plenty of space for another cat to hang out. In my home, I try to make the environment as comfortable for other pets as possible and make sure they feel safe and secure as they would in their own home. As for visiting pets at their homes, I enjoy knowing their habits and preferences, so I can cater to their needs as closely to their normal lifestyle as I can. Simply put, I want pets to feel at home and safe regardless of their location, and do my best to love them and their needs whatever they may be.
“Cara is wonderful! Patient, caring, and great communication. Tev loved her walk! Cara asked great questions and made sure all were comfortable. Highly recommend and we will definitely book with Cara again!”
“Michaela is so good with my rambunctious boys! I don't trust many people can handle them and she has my absolute trust. She's very friendly, responsive -and most of all - a kennel break savior! I absolutely recommend her...as long as you don't take her away from us!”
“Absolutely wonderful! Paloma let me know when they were on their way and was super sweet and kind. Even ran with Percy a few times at my request and he came back wiped- goal achieved! Will def be back again! Tysm!”
“Erika was able to meet with me on a moment's notice and was very reliable. She even worked it out to drive a little farther than she would have liked. Thank you Erika!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up with dogs taught me not only how to care for them, but also how to understand their unique personalities, needs, and routines. For the past 13 years, I’ve provided trusted pet and house sitting services for families, caring for pets as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I understand how important it is to maintain their routine, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and create a safe, comfortable environment while you’re away. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and communicative. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a familiar and caring presence, I’m committed to making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands. As a full-time artist, I have a flexible schedule and don’t work a traditional 9-to-5 job, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, whether that means drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, walks, administering medications, or simply providing companionship and comfort. Because I work independently, I can be flexible with scheduling and am often available throughout the day for check-ins and updates. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I make it a priority to maintain their routines so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, and I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely so pets can stay in a familiar environment with minimal disruption. This includes feeding schedules, walks or litter box care, playtime, medication if needed, and any specific routines or preferences your pet is used to. I also focus on giving pets plenty of attention and companionship so they feel calm and secure while their owner is away. I’m very mindful of keeping the home clean and respecting the space, and I always provide updates so you know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s dogs or cats, my goal is to create a stress-free experience where your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for until you return.
“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.”
“Meg was amazing and that’s is still a understatement!! My dog absolutely loved her. She messaged me the whole time to make sure I felt comfortable while on a trip. Will definitely be booking with her again and again in the future. I highly recommend. Just don’t keep her to busy I still need her lol.”
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.
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!

“Brittany and Franklin were great hosts! Our dogs loved running around and playing with Franklin in their big back yard and then relaxing with everyone at night!

Kasey's attention to detail and her willingness to go above and beyond taking care of my senior puppy provided this very anxious pet parent the reassurance that he was in the best hands for his care!

She was very responsive to communication and sent me lots of pictures and updates. She is very knowledgeable of dogs and provides a safe and caring place for them. We’d definitely leave our puppy with her again. I highly recommend her.”
“We booked with Christine for 5 days and I will definitely be booking again in the future. The meet and greet prior to booking really helped put my mind at ease and was nice to introduce my dog to Christine and her family. The backyard is a great size for allowing dogs to burn off some energy. There were a bunch of toys and having other dogs to play with was important to me as we only have a cat for our dog to play with back home. When we picked her up she was so exhausted and went to bed earlier than usual so I think she had an awesome time at Christine's.”
About: Hi! I’m Olivia, a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently work from home, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I’m very active and love making sure dogs get the exercise and stimulation they need. I also have an English Cream Golden Retriever named Sully who is extremely playful, friendly, and loves having dog buddies around. Because of that, I’m looking for dogs that enjoy playing and socializing! Creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I’ll care for your dog like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention and companionship. I typically do a 30-minute morning walk, a lunchtime walk, and an evening walk to help dogs stay active, stimulated, and on a consistent routine. I’m also very active myself and love spending time outdoors with dogs. Since I already care for my own playful Golden Retriever, Sully, having dogs in the home is already a big part of my everyday lifestyle. Sully loves having dog buddies around, so I’m looking for dogs that enjoy playing and socializing as well! I provide a safe, loving, and active environment for pets in my home. I have a fenced-in backyard for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks, along with a large finished basement where dogs can run around, play, and burn off energy indoors. Since I work from home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and exercise throughout the day. I follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from owners. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while they’re with me.
“Naji was incredible. She gave both our dogs the live and attention we were hoping to find in the River app. She sent us videos and pictures every day. Kudos to your skills as a sitter, Naji! We truly appreciate you!”
