“Derrika and her family are so sweet and amazing. Kiki might like them more than me! She has the best time when she says with Derrika, cannot reccomend more! Derrika will send all the cute pictures and you won't worry in the slightest. Book her immediately!”
“Christine takes great care of my 2 dogs every time. When they stay with her, they get to hang out with her kids and dogs so it's a mini vacation for them. I trust her to make sure they get fed and get to spend plenty of time outside, so it's money well spent!”
“Griffin and Gloria are awesome!! They sent plenty of updates and pictures, putting us totally at ease! Our dog was very well taken care of and seemed to thrive in their care!”
“Shannon was absolutely amazing with Sully! 💛 From the start, she made me feel completely at ease, and it was clear he was in the best hands. She sent daily pictures and updates, which I loved! I made it being away from him so much easier. She kept him active with walks and made sure he got plenty of playtime. Honestly, I don’t think he wanted to leave, which says everything about how much fun he had with her! I couldn’t recommend Shannon more. She’s kind, attentive, and truly treats your dog like her own. We’ll definitely be back 🐾”
“Susan was great! She was very easy to communicate with, kept me updated on my dog with photos every day, and made a pleasant, comfortable home experience for my dog while we were on holiday!”
“Stephanie was quick responder and saved us from a very stressful last minute cancellation from another sitter. She sent lots of pics and updates from the weekend, putting as at ease. Would highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Lindsey is AMAZING! She kept our 1 year old puppy while we were on vacation. It was our first time as puppy parents that we had left our dog, and we were understandably anxious about being away from her. Lindsey put us at ease. She cared for our dog as if she were her own and kept us consistently updated with photos and messages. Our dog was able to play and interact with Lindsey’s dogs, which our dog thoroughly enjoyed. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our dog or for us. Knowing that our dog was in good hands while we were away helped to ease our anxiety and allowed us to enjoy our vacation to the fullest. I highly recommend Lindsey and will definitely be seeking her out anytime I need a dog sitter in the future. She is a true dog lover and is absolutely wonderful.”
“What wonderful caregivers. Crissy and her husband always take wonderful care of my fur babies. We received regular updates and pictures. They also were flexible when needing to add another night to our stay. I highly recommend them!”
“Stephanie was amazing and treated our little guy like family. Every picture she sent was of him smiling, playing with his new friends or digging into the dirt. (His favorite hobby). Highly recommend Stephanie for the care of your pet!”
“Cassie and Ben and their kids did an amazing job keeping our dog for a week. It felt like family was keeping him. They played with him and treated him like their own. They sent us pictures and videos throughout the week. We highly recommend them.”
“Tasha did a wonderful job with my Milo. He’s a nervous pup with some anxiety and she did really good with helping him to feel comfortable. She sent multiple pictures throughout the day each day and loved on him.”
“Rhiannon and Rachel were fantastic with Lovie, they were very responsive when checking in and made sure she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend booking with them!”
“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!”
“Katelynn was awesome! She was incredibly attentive to details in my dogs’ profiles and I was pleasantly surprised when she just started rattling off information about the meds they take and their different needs I had written out. My dogs were clearly happy and well cared for when I picked them up and we have already rebooked with her for next week!”
“Jessica and her family were ideal caretakers for my pup! It was his first time away from home, and the family made it really special - lots of love and attention, plenty of patience for Boomer's extreme-puppy behavior, plenty of activity to keep him occupied. I really liked the fact that it was a family affair. Jessica sent pics regularly too, giving me confidence that all was going well. I highly recommend!!!”
“This was a longer trip than usual but I didn't worry at all about Beau the entire time. I know Becky takes the best care of him and he loves visiting her. I appreciate the daily pictures and videos to show that show how happy he is.”
“Nicole was wonderful! She provided excellent communication throughout our trip and sent photos, which gave me great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was well cared for, and having fun. In fact, when he came home, he cried because he missed his new friends and the environment he had grown so attached to. We couldn’t ask for a better indication of how happy and comfortable he was in her care. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Taylor is wonderful! She sends photo updates of the dogs while we’re away, and the dogs always come back happy and well taken care of! Will definitely use her again :)”

“Madeline was incredible with my sweet kitty! The time she spent with her and the care provided was so comforting! I've already booked Madeline again. So happy!”
“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!”
“Jasmine has been a lifesaver for the 2 kitties! They were available on short notice and have gone above and beyond to help with the cats health needs. Jasmine was communicative and sent lots of photos! I would highly recommend Jasmine!!”
“We had Vanessa watch our two young cats over Thanksgiving week. Vanessa was great with them and with us - attentive to their needs and very responsive to us. Our favorite was the pictures she shared in the after-visit reports, and our cats’ favorite was seeing their new buddy. Vanessa was very respectful, professional, and kind. Would definitely ask Vanessa to come back in the future!”
“Nicole was amazing - she graciously stepped in to check in on my cat when my prior sitter canceled the day before I was supposed to leave for my trip. I’m so glad she did, because she’s truly the best sitter I’ve found on Rover. Very kind and gracious - she went above and beyond sending me 7-8 photos each time, a detailed summary, and even some videos! Will definitely be booking with Nicole again. Can’t thank you enough!”
“Jessica is such a wonderful person! We are going to be away from our cats for a month while in Europe and Jessica's presence has made the distance so much easier! She's very responsive and has been excellent at completing the daily task and connecting with our cats!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, but what really sets me apart is hands-on experience actually raising and training one myself. I grew up training my German Shepherd from a young age, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to understand dog behavior, not just watch them. As a student athlete, I’m very active, so I naturally bring a lot of energy to walks, playtime, and keeping dogs engaged. At the same time, I understand that every dog is different, some need structure and training, while others need calm, gentle care, especially seniors. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training, handling larger or high-energy breeds, and making sure pets feel safe and understood while their owners are away. I don’t just “watch” dogs, I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and building trust. As a college student athlete, I keep a very structured schedule, which actually makes me reliable and consistent when it comes to pet care. I plan my days around responsibilities, so I make sure pets are fed, walked, and given attention on time. I also work part-time at a golf course, but I’m looking to spend more of my free time doing something I enjoy, being around dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it gives me a break from school and sports while still staying active. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or evening care, I’m used to balancing multiple commitments and staying dependable. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine, feeding times, walks, play, and any training habits they’re used to. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s environment, making sure everything stays clean, safe, and stress-free. I give dogs plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision, and I always keep owners updated so they feel confident their pet is in good hands. I’m especially attentive to energy levels and behavior, whether that means getting a high-energy dog out for a long walk or just spending calm time with a more relaxed or older dog.
“Thank you Keesha for doing all you could to keep my kitty stress free while we were gone. And for all the updates which kept me stress free ?.”
“Jackson took great care of my two cats while I was away. He sent me daily updates on how the cats were doing and made sure to take time to play with them. 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.”
“Monica provided great care for my cat like she always does. she provided pictures and videos of him and also gave updates as she did the drop ins. Monica administered his insulin well and with care! My cat loves her!”
“Lindsay is great with my dogs. She is flexible and always super helpful if my plans change, even going above and beyond when we had an out of town emergency. I don't have to worry when I know she is coming!”
“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!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Knoches Park
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Naji and her two dogs were awesome! My puppy came home happy and exhausted from all the fun! Naji was very sweet sending me cute videos and photos throughout the day. You can tell she truly loves having your fur babies around! We already booked doggy daycare for October! Highly recommend Naji!”
“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. ”
“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!”
“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: Hello! I’ve been dog sitting for over a couple years for friends and family and I can’t wait to do more for the community. I love all animals and treat them like family. I’m excited to meet more furry friends! I’m currently a medical student at UAMS. I usually just stay at home and study. I’ll have plenty of time to go on walks, dog parks, and much more! I have a back yard and a smoke free home to keep your furry friend company whenever needs be. I can adapt to your needs as long as we communicate and work through it!
“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!”
About: I grew up raising and caring for dogs, gaining hands on experience with feeding,grooming, and understanding different behaviors, needs, and personalities in a loving, responsible environment. I am available during the day but I work from 1a-11a . Please note that my children may also be present at my home during the stay. I will get the extra accessories I need , due to me not having a fenced in yard,such as a leash, a harness, and toys if not provided ! I will ensure to keep your fur babies entertained!
About: I have had dogs almost all my life. From as early as I can remember I have enjoyed the character of dogs and how they interact with the world around them. Curious, loving, direct, playful, and led by natural instincts. I am a certified professional dog groomer that also offers these additional services to include well rounded pet care. I currently do work at home and can be pretty flexible with scheduling. I can take new appointments within a day or two. I prefer three days notice to cancel but handle all situations case by case. When caring for a beloved four-legged fur baby I treat them with the love I show my own pet companion with kindness, love, compassion, and comfort. I typically allow pets on my furniture and interact with them throughout the day. I enjoy walking with and having playtime in the yard or at a nearby dog park. If there is a more structured environment that you prefer with your dog that can almost always be accommodated.
About: I have had dogs in my family since I was a child and have years of experience with various breeds. I work from home most days and happy to get active with the doggos. I have a loving a cuddly home and treat all my fur guests as family. As someone with a senior dog, I am very patient and know how to accommate the additional needs some pets may have. With my flexible work from home schedule, I am able to be home during the week, to take your dog out for walks, potty breaks, cuddle, and to play. I am also available on weekends. With the exclusion of running errands, while your dog is with me, they will never be left alone for more than a few hours extended amount of time. I have a fenced in back yard for your dog to run free in. I also have a senior chihuahua who is very chill and unbothered, so as long as your dog likes other dogs, they will get along just fine. I do let dogs sit on the couch and get on the bed, however, I will respect that boundary if you do not allow that for your pets. I know all families have different schedules for potty and feeding times, and my schedule is flexible so I can keep your dog on track even while you are gone.
“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!”
“Couldn’t be a better first time Rover experience! Clover had a great day and Allison was awesome in communicating and 6:20 am pick up sure made my day easier. Will use again! 10/10”
About: I do believe my gift is natural. From reptiles to dogs to ferrets, I believe all pets deserve love and patience. I’ve loved on all walks of life and species. I currently work from home. 7:30-3:30 is my schedule, however we will still have potty breaks every two hours. My pups go on at least two 30 minute walks. I do have a fenced yard, with multiple tethers just in case your dog is a escape artist. I have a dog room, where dogs sleep at night time, in case they are high on nerves. We will offer mental stimulation as well as some continuous learning of basic manners.

About: I have cared for my friend’s dogs while they are away many times. I enjoy providing animals with enrichment and making sure they get ample exercise. I am careful around new dogs to let them show me what kind of care they prefer, and strive to make my time with them as enjoyable as possible for both of us. I have full time evening employment. I am available to care for pets Sunday-Thursday 9am to 2pm (meaning my latest available visit would start at 1:30pm for an 30 min visit), and All day Fridays and Saturdays! I have lots of experience with sneaky animals who love eating things they are not supposed to eat or hiding in places they should not be. I am diligent with putting away foodstuffs and making sure doors/ screens are shut. Please let me know if your pet has these behaviors so I can be prepared before the visit.
“Jessica was great! You can tell she truly cares about building relationships with the dog as she came to our home to meet our pup before watching her solo. Communication was great and she was very respectful of our home.”
“Came over the day before to meet Sawyer. Went for walk on trail near my house even though I said they could just walk the neighborhood. Went above and beyond, would book again!”
About: I’ve been owned by several (rescue) dogs and a few cats. Am capable a caring for multiple pets in household. Have lived with 3 dogs for several years. I’m good with all animals and have a tendency to make a critter calm. Senior dogs are a specialty and regular medications are no problem. Done a lot of house sitting for pets and home security. Day care and overnights easy as I am retired with only a few obligations with my time. I am retired so an abundance of time is available. I do have a commitment to sit with a dog and two cats every Wednesday. I feed/walk/play with two dogs every evening and a long walk on Saturday afternoon. I clean a home once a month on my schedule. I am involved in my church (Sunday worship and once a month vestry meetings). If you desire overnight stays or extended visits I’m able to do that as long as leaving for above mentioned obligations works with your pet. My specialty is senior dogs. I prefer smaller dogs as I am older fella and wouldn’t want to lose grip walking or caring for large dogs. Feeding/walks/medications not a problem If doing check ins I am punctual and trustworthy in your home.
“Vanessa was wonderful to work with! She was easy to communicate with and incredibly accommodating, especially with my last-minute request. We had to make a few adjustments due to the weather, but communication was seamless and she was very flexible throughout the process. I really appreciated how easy she made everything, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and responsive sitter/walker. Thanks again, Vanessa! 🐾😊”
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!
“Kat was amazing. My girl is scared being normally a country dog moving to the city. Kat was patient and kind with her. Ms Lagertha just adores her. Kat is a wealth of knowledge and provided me with some tips and tricks to help. I would recommend her a 1000%.”
“Cheyenne is wonderful. She is always on time and professional. More importantly my dog Grace looks forward to her walks with her. I like how she lets me know of her bathroom habits so I can monitor. Highly recommend her.”
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.
“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.”
About: I work part-time at CityDogs, a boarding/day care center for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I have experience with many types of dogs and their different needs. Other than dogs I have experience with cats, birds, reptiles, bugs and fish. I have taught my birds to talk and whistle, mice to jump through hoops, and I have trained my dog in basic tricks. I genuinely care for and love animals and will give your pet(s) my undivided attention when caring for them!! I am a full time college student so I won’t be available 24/7, but I will make sure to set aside time for your pet! My availability- Mondays: After 9pm Tuesdays: After 10:30am Wednesdays:After 9pm Thursdays:After 10:30am Fridays: After 7pm Saturdays/Sundays- Free! I don’t offer services in my own home at this moment, but when caring for pets in my clients home I make sure to respect and clean up my surroundings and their animals space.
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.
“Tori was absolutely amazing! Really took the time to understand my girl's needs before and during the visit! Even was able to make it a little earlier since I got called into work early. I would highly recommend her and will definitely hire her again!”
“Professional, accommodating, and reliable. Ashley did a wonderful job looking after my senior dog whilst I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to utilize her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16 years old, and we always had a dog or two in the house when I was growing up. This taught me responsibility and love for all dogs! I’ve taken care of many puppies, trained my own dogs from birth, and more. I tend to gravitate towards dogs and dogs tend to gravitate towards me. In my care, your dog will receive endless amounts of love and playtime between myself and my dogs, responsible care, a yard and frequent potty/food breaks, and a stress free experience for both you and your dog! I’m currently working full-time, but I am able to come home on lunch breaks Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to interact with the dogs. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, off Saturdays and Sundays. My schedule is pretty flexible so you can bet your dog will be taken care of! I have a fenced in back and front yard, and two sweet, trained, cuddly labs for your fur friend to play with (they love playing)! If I need to be away at any time, I can easily crate your dog next to my crate trained dogs. My dogs also enjoy the off leash dog parks, so if you are comfortable with it, I would take your dog to them for extra playtime! I feed my dogs twice a day, but can adjust to your dogs feeding schedule. I take my dogs out to potty about every 4 hours, but again, can adjust to your dogs potty needs. If in your home, your rules will be followed and I will only accept as long as I’m able to meet ALL of your needs. My goal is to provide a stress free home/experience for any fur friends needed!
About: I do believe my gift is natural. From reptiles to dogs to ferrets, I believe all pets deserve love and patience. I’ve loved on all walks of life and species. I currently work from home. 7:30-3:30 is my schedule, however we will still have potty breaks every two hours. My pups go on at least two 30 minute walks. I do have a fenced yard, with multiple tethers just in case your dog is a escape artist. I have a dog room, where dogs sleep at night time, in case they are high on nerves. We will offer mental stimulation as well as some continuous learning of basic manners.
About: I've been living my dream for the past three and a half years, pet-sitting in exchange for accommodation as I travel the U.S. as a full-time digital nomad. My extensive nomadic pet-sitting experience has largely been built through a different platform (where I have over 50 five-star reviews for my pet-sitting services) while I worked an unrelated job remotely, but I have converted to / added on Rover in light of being impacted by a mass layoff several months ago. As you can see, I've completed Rover sits in other parts of the U.S. But, Kansas (City) is my home base (I used to live in KC, and I have family/friends all over the area), and I'll be back for a bit in July. I am certainly looking to spend some time in the city while I'm in the area this summer, and I know from experience that pet-sitting is a great way to do it! In the aftermath of my layoff, I have remained very stable through remote side gigs and projects that keep me busy and fulfilled (e.g., a paid remote internship teaching me something new, travel blogging). Still, I have more flexibility in my days to travel to other parts of town and do my work in various settings, so I enjoy utilizing my extensive pet-sitting experience to even further stabilize my life financially. Over the past few years, I've cared for all sorts of pets, ranging from one healthy cat to a seven-animal pack including previously-stray dogs who need to be proven to that they're safe. I've truly made some best friends in these pets; my top favorites have been pitbulls with a personality, as well as cats who provide me some freedom in my daily routine. I've also provided all sorts of medical care to my furry friends: simple pills in pill pockets, "pilling" a cat, checking glucose levels of a diabetic cat and giving it insulin injections, giving a dog allergy immunizations, post-seizure comfort care to a dog, and sincere patience with senior dogs on walks, going up stairs, or who are in the stage of life of needing to wear diapers. I've also watched service dogs who adhere to a different set of rules/commands than their siblings. (When I was younger, I helped train a litter of puppies, so that's also not foreign to me.) While my experience is top-quality, I also have a true love for just spending time with animals, especially dogs and cats. What you can count on from me as your pet-sitter: 1) I will send at least one/two picture(s) a day (if not more because you request it or they do something extra cute/funny!), 2) I will end the sit with various nicknames for them, 3) I will talk to them all day and invite them into every room I hang out in (as long as they're allowed), and 4) I am very attentive to their nonverbal cues, and I will contact you and/or a virtual vet if something seems really off. Pet-sitting has been such a huge part of my nomadic journey thus far, and I've absolutely loved it. . . . I see an opportunity through Rover to monetize and further stabilize my life - as I conduct a full-time job search and pursue adventures I have planned, but also beyond. In my profile pictures, I have included some of my reviews on the other platform I've used for the past few years. If a pet-owner is still curious, I would be happy to provide them with my full profile link. I'm a digital nomad, and pet-sitting has been such a huge part of my journey! I am excited to be back in Kansas City for a bit this summer, and I'm eager to share my time with your pets! My calendar is updated for those dates I'm available. I've spent lots of time in KC over the years, through pet-sitting and living there before I got on the road. I can start my days early and stay up late; I've watched pets who rise before the sun comes up, as well as ones who sleep in like teenagers! I have a lot of remote, digital work to do (ranging from my remote internship to my full-time job search, to running a blog), and your pet is welcome to sit in my lap / at my feet while I work. In my part-time employment era, I have more flexibility and time on my hands, so I figure I might as well expand my time with pets! I look forward to keeping your pets company overnight while watching over your home. But, if you just need someone throughout the day, I love a good coffee shop, so I can hang out at one in your area between drop-ins. In my free time, I enjoy blogging/writing, reading, practicing yoga, cooking and baking, enjoying coffee shops and parks, and going on walks. So, both energetic and calm pets will have a buddy in me. I love a good night in, but I also love to explore new neighborhoods. I look forward to doing so while watching over your furry family! I only agree to pet-sits I feel confident about meeting the pet/home-owners' expectations. Luckily for those searching for the best care for their fur family, I have an extremely wide range of successful experience, including medical/anxiety/senior and home care. Some pets simply need--and want--a human to take them outside and feed them. Others require a bit more attention. I think I really have done it all. I've watched over and bonded with eager, cuddly pets, as well as many rescued/previously-stray dogs who take quite a bit of time to warm up, and cats who fill the litter box and empty the food bowl but rarely show their face. I'm always eager to give the animals my love and affection, should they welcome it, and to fulfill their care needs. I follow all procedures and care that your pet is used to / that you request for them and your home. I am very attentive to pet-owners' instructions, from feeding instructions to crating needs during specific amounts of time alone/overnight, to medication instructions and signs to look out for, to times your fur baby needs to be let out or wants to wake for the day or go to bed. If your pet loves to cuddle and is allowed in the bed or on the couch, they will be welcome to join me. Additionally, I've been astounded to learn how important the HOUSE-sitting portion can be. . . . I've saved a flooding bathroom caused by the connected unit, handled a creepy neighbor while keeping the homeowner involved, kept a saltwater pool clean and operating, oversaw an AC and furnace replacement, and more. Especially for overnight stays, I am known to leave homes just as clean if not cleaner than I found them, with bedding and towels taken care of if my departure time allows.

“Christine takes great care of my 2 dogs every time. When they stay with her, they get to hang out with her kids and dogs so it's a mini vacation for them. I trust her to make sure they get fed and get to spend plenty of time outside, so it's money well spent!”
“Shannon was absolutely amazing with Sully! 💛 From the start, she made me feel completely at ease, and it was clear he was in the best hands. She sent daily pictures and updates, which I loved! I made it being away from him so much easier. She kept him active with walks and made sure he got plenty of playtime. Honestly, I don’t think he wanted to leave, which says everything about how much fun he had with her! I couldn’t recommend Shannon more. She’s kind, attentive, and truly treats your dog like her own. We’ll definitely be back 🐾”
“Susan was great! She was very easy to communicate with, kept me updated on my dog with photos every day, and made a pleasant, comfortable home experience for my dog while we were on holiday!”
“Lindsey is AMAZING! She kept our 1 year old puppy while we were on vacation. It was our first time as puppy parents that we had left our dog, and we were understandably anxious about being away from her. Lindsey put us at ease. She cared for our dog as if she were her own and kept us consistently updated with photos and messages. Our dog was able to play and interact with Lindsey’s dogs, which our dog thoroughly enjoyed. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our dog or for us. Knowing that our dog was in good hands while we were away helped to ease our anxiety and allowed us to enjoy our vacation to the fullest. I highly recommend Lindsey and will definitely be seeking her out anytime I need a dog sitter in the future. She is a true dog lover and is absolutely wonderful.”
“Cassie and Ben and their kids did an amazing job keeping our dog for a week. It felt like family was keeping him. They played with him and treated him like their own. They sent us pictures and videos throughout the week. We highly recommend them.”
“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!”
“Jessica and her family were ideal caretakers for my pup! It was his first time away from home, and the family made it really special - lots of love and attention, plenty of patience for Boomer's extreme-puppy behavior, plenty of activity to keep him occupied. I really liked the fact that it was a family affair. Jessica sent pics regularly too, giving me confidence that all was going well. I highly recommend!!!”
“This was a longer trip than usual but I didn't worry at all about Beau the entire time. I know Becky takes the best care of him and he loves visiting her. I appreciate the daily pictures and videos to show that show how happy he is.”
“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!”
“Taylor is wonderful! She sends photo updates of the dogs while we’re away, and the dogs always come back happy and well taken care of! Will definitely use her again :)”
“Amazing sitter! My dog Jerri had a fantastic time and was very tired when she came home (it's really hard to tire her out). I will definitely be using Deanna again and I would encourage you to also.”
“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!”
“Had great experience with Jessie! She was super patient with both of our dogs, but especially with our dog who takes a minute to warm up to new dogs. She kept me updated all weekend with videos and pictures. Couldn't recommend enough!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog with someone. Actually, it was his first time staying with anyone at all, so we were very anxious and worried about him—we really care about him like our own child. That’s why it was so important for us to find someone responsible. When I saw Olga’s profile and read her reviews, I immediately felt like she was the right person for us. They are very friendly and gave us such a warm welcome. She did everything to help Tyson feel comfortable, especially since he was very nervous at first. Olga always kept us updated, sent photos, and responded to my messages every time. I’m truly very grateful to her for taking such great care of Tyson. We will definitely be reaching out again.”
“Erin was great! She was incredibly responsive and made me feel at ease while I was away. I loved getting daily updates and pictures. She clearly took great care of my pet and treated them like her own. I would highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“Jay took great care of our dog. He sent us an update with a picture to let us know how she was doing. She got lots of snuggles during her stay and came home happy. We would definitely consider using Jay as a sitter again.”
