“Nicole is the reason I was able to spend a week with my GREAT grandchild whom I’d never met! Knowing Loki wasn’t simply cared for, but loved and treated like one of the family, gave me the peace of mind I needed to do this. He always has such a good time with her kids and dogs… to the point he mopes when he has to come home. As soon as I show him a picture of where he is going he gets excited and wants to grab the leash to go. If that doesn’t say exceptional care.. nothing does! Thank you , Nicole. You will always be my first choice from now on! Y’all are amazing and a perfect fit for a high energy dog whom still thinks he’s a puppy! ❤️”
“We can’t be happier to have Luna in care of Griffin & Gloria. Luna plays all the time and they make sure I get videos updates every day to see her having fun”
“Susan and her sweet family always take such great care of Charlie! They treat him as if he were their own and I think he'd rather live there. Ha!”
“Lona and Alan were amazing at watching my baby! They have wonderful ideas and games for mental stimulation. They make sure to get all the details and preferences for caring for your pet, and are on top of sending updates multiple times a day so you don’t worry. I have no doubt for any future trips I’ll take that my dog will be in great hands!”
“Sarah was absolutely phenomenal! She was so accommodating/flexible and reassuring. She send plenty of updates and I know my two pups had an absolute blast with hef. She has the perfect set up! It made me feel way less guilty leaving my babies behind knowing that Sarah has a fantastic yard for them to play in. Almost felt like dropping the pups off at a Summer camp. I am a very anxious dog mom and I felt at ease knowing that my babies were in great hands. If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would!”
“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!!”
“Jessica always takes such amazing care of our little Hallie! I very highly recommend her. Her family is so loving and wonderful, and makes all of the dogs in their care feel loved and welcomed. Thank you, Jessica!”
“Jillian was absolutely amazing with our baby, Scooby! She took wonderful care of him and provided updates and pictures! Scooby definitely enjoyed his "vacation" with Jillian and I will DEFINITELY book services with her again! This was the first time he has been away from us overnight and we were a little worried, but the updates she provided, we felt very reassured that he was in the best hands! Thank you Jillian!”
“Shannon is awesome. She took great care of my older goldendoodle, and he was able to use her doggie door which was a huge plus. She walked him every morning and sent regular updates. I hope to use her next time I’m out of town if she’s available.”
“Derrika was great. She took great care of our Charlie, was great with drop off and pickups, and excellent with providing updates and communication. What a blessing it is to have a safe loving home for our little guy when we’re away. Gives us great peace of mind that he’s well taken care of and loved.”
“Linda was amazing! She was an absolute lifesaver and did great with my little dog (who can be a bit energetic and needy at times). Linda never missed a beat, and even sent little updates on how she was doing. Highly recommend, and your dogs are in EXCELLENT hands with her!”
“Dana was so fantastic! She watched our energetic pooch for two nights. And sent plenty of pics and updates of our energetic puppy having a blast in her yard and with her dog. During the meet and greet, she asked questions and graciously showed her home inside and out to see where our Boba would be spending her time. Our dog had a blast with her and we definitely will be hiring Dana again”
“We absolutely loved Alyssa!!! She watched our very anxious pup over an extended 4th of July weekend and she was amazing 🤩. We received regular updates and fun photos. I could tell she was getting the lovings she would normally receive at home and that it’s important for us in a sitter. We usually have to medicate our pup due to fireworks and she was able to keep her clam without the meds which was fabulous! I could tell Gigi was sad to go, but rest assured we will definitely be returning customers 🐶❤️.”
“Best experience! Katie and Carmen are very accommodating and easy to work with, plus they’re fun. It’s clear that they really enjoy animals and my quirky little dog sure loves them. After a lengthy stay, he still wasn’t ready to go back home! I am happy to have found a great sitter and will be choosing them every time!”
“Stephanie is the perfect person to watch our dogs. They immediately felt comfortable with her and the pics showed how happy they were during their stay. Will certainly get in touch with Stephanie the next time we need help!”
“Chloe and Collin were absolutely wonderful. I always get nervous because of Babs’ diabetes, but because of Chloe’s updates I was able to fully relax while out of town. They treated her like family. I’m so grateful to have found such a wonderful family to watch my sweet Babs.”
“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.”

She was fantastic with my pet and I felt very comfortable knowing she would be checking in. I would not hesitate to book Samantha again!!”

About: I have been a cat lover my entire life. I would go to the library as a child every few days and check out a new cat book.I am very familiar with body language, different breed temperaments, and aware every cat has their own quirks and social pace. I will do everything I can to cater to your cats specific needs and temperament. I am available in the evenings and all day on weekends!

I'm happy to have found someone like Jackson whom I can trust to take care of my cats again in the future! I highly recommend booking Jackson for your pet needs.”
“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!”
“Shelby is amazing and went above and beyond for our old kitty! She made extra time to make sure she got her meds even when our cat was putting up a protest and took the time to play and hang with her. She even watered our plants without us asking! Highly recommend and will definitely ask Shelby to sit again!”
“Nicole is a phenomenal, friendly, and detailed sitter. Each day we looked forward to her updates and photos with our pets. And she was thorough in ensuring that she knew every aspect of what our pets needed. We’ll be more than happy to have her sit for our animals again.”
“Jennifer was FANTASTIC! Her care was top notch and I felt so secure leaving my kiddos with her. I genuinely think that one of my cats, Toast was disappointed to see us, and not Jennifer. She gave great updates and photos at every visit and we appreciated her so much! I will absolutely contact Jennifer again for care of our kitties.”

“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!”
“I booked with Taylor to watch my dog for a couple hours one morning. He has separation anxiety. She understands the needs for a dog with SA and was able to help manage his nerves while we were gone for some errands.”

About: Please claim a a spot for the holidays early :) I have 2 years of dedicated pet care experience looking after a variety of breeds. I focus on creating a safe, fun, and stress-free environment for your pets while you are away. I love providing long walks, plenty of playtime, and lots of individual attention. Because I dedicate myself to pet care full-time, my schedule is completely open and flexible. I am fully available for overnight boarding, weekend stays, and daytime visits, ensuring I can perfectly match your pet's normal daily schedule. I love taking care of animals, and nothing is more important to me than making sure every single pet feels loved and safe. I have a secure fenced yard for outdoor playtime and can easily take your pet on long walks if needed. For pets who aren't well with other pets, I will make sure to reserve those days for ONLY that pet. Every animal deserves to be comfortable. I only accept pets that are friendly and comfortable around other dogs during bookings that require more than one pet. NOTE: For safety reasons, I cannot accept pets that are aggressive or lash out at people. Safety is my top priority, and I reserve the right to decline bookings if a pet is not a good fit.
“Awesome experience for our 2 crazy maligators! Anna was very flexible with our schedule as we were coming from out of state. Great communication. Will absolutely book again next time we're in Kansas!”
“Melissa was fantastic!! Our boy Lando had a great time. When we dropped him off we could tell he would be in good hands. Melissa was even able to keep Lando a little while longer than originally planned on short notice. We would absolutely trust her to watch Lando again!!”

“Theresa has been absolutely amazing! She is so kind and adaptable to my dog and his various levels of chaos for his twice weekly walks. She is punctual, spends an adequate amount of time with him, and always very loving. She has been the perfect addition to his routine.

About: Hey! I’m Brendan. I’m new to Rover, but I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I currently live in downtown Kansas City with my two best friends, Malakai, an 8 year old Siberian Husky, and O’Malley, a 3 year old Frenchie, so I’m very comfortable with both high energy dogs and smaller companion breeds. I work from home full time, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, and I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work from home full time, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. My dogs already keep me active with walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day, so adding another furry friend to the mix feels pretty seamless. I’m home most of the day and have a flexible schedule during both weekdays and weekends. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first with me. I live in a pet friendly apartment downtown with plenty of walking areas nearby, and my two dogs are both very social and friendly with other dogs. I’m also comfortable crating your dog if preferred or following any routines, feeding schedules, or care instructions you already have in place to help them feel at home.
“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 grown up with dogs all my life and love them more than people so let me put all my dog-loving energy into spoiling yours! I work in education so am off during summer break (all of June through mid-July) and available to meet your dogs needs whether it’s a puppy working on training or a senior who needs to take it slow :) I work full time in education so have long break availability (winter and summer break). During the school year, I am mostly only available on weekends but can be flexible with some evenings during the week. Just let me know what you need! I will be respectful of your space when in your home. I can come in and out or sit and stay awhile to keep your pup company.
About: I am a huge animal person and love to take care and play with your pets of any kind! I have been cat sitting and dog walking for years for family and neighbors, and have always been there for even a short pop-in visit. Working in my local animal shelter I specialized in both feline and canine care, and know everything about keeping your pet happy and healthy. I have two cats of my own that I treat like my babies and grew up with dogs all my life, and I hope I can treat your pets as good as my own! I am currently working part time with a varying schedule, but will typically have the same days off every week which will allow me to have a more consistent schedule when caring for your pet. I will always approach a new dog or cat with caution and assess their behavior before jumping right in, not only for my well-being but also theirs to avoid any extra stress.
“Kat is amazing with my little guy! He warmed right up to her which is no small feat with my anxious little dude! She is always mindful of the temp outside and does what is best for my pup! She is an awesome communicator and is really on top of things. She is also very flexible and I have really appreciated this about her!!!! I dont trust just anyone with my fur baby but I feel comfortable with her 100%!”
“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 :)”
“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: Hello!! Just as much as I love hugging people I love snuggling with dogs! My name is Kayla and I recently moved to Brookside MO! I am just a 4 minute walk to a nearby trolley trail. I got my first whiff of being a pet sitter when I became roommates with a couple of friends and their golden poodle! From there on out I became a dog/cat sitter for Rover.! I also shared a beautiful German Shepard / black lab with my best friend! If you are looking for a flexible schedule and a caring friend for your family then you are at the right place! I look forward to meeting your furry family! I am able to work from home if needed! Depending on what your pet needs and if they are being boarded my schedule is pretty flexible. I will follow all the rules of the homeowner whom I am petsitting for. Please let me know if there are any special instructions when pet sitting or coming in for walks.
“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.”
“Kamila has been taking my Goldendoodle on walks while I am at work and has been so amazing! She communicates very well with me and has been so flexible with my nursing schedule. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone!!”
“Abigail was simply amazing with the dogs! She was very good with them, send frequent updates when she walked them, including pictures! You could see the happiness in their faces, and that they were enjoying their time with Abigail. It was a huge relief to know that they were being taken care of when I couldn't be there for them. I would recommend Abigail to anyone!”
About: I strive to care for all animals with the utmost respect and kindness! I am very patient and will always interact with your pets as if they were my own. I have 6+ years of experience caring for my own cats, dog sitting, watching chickens, and volunteering through KC Pet Project. I’m currently available full time and free most evenings and weekends to care for your pets. I am also usually free and in town during holidays. I am happy to accommodate your busy schedule! I take a calm and gentle approach and will respect and accommodate any needs of the pets I care for. I understand that all animals are unique and am excited to cater my services to your pet's personality.

“Achilles has stayed with Cathy before, so we felt comfortable leaving him with her. She treats the dogs in her care as if they were her own. This was a longer stay, but she kept us up-to-date with texts and photos. She had another dog staying at the same time, and they made friends, which I think helped a lot. It certainly made us feel better. We will definitely book with Cathy in the future when we need to.”
