“Cassie and Ben and their kids are the best! I know Berkley is loved and well cared for while I'm away, and I can't say enough good things about them!!!”

“Kristy was fantastic! She was very communicative and sent pictures and updates of how my dog Scout was doing and treated him like he was her own! Would definitely book with her again.”

“Olga is such a kind person and it is very clear how nice she loves and cares for dogs. I was anxious about leaving my pup because it was our first time apart. I got so many updates, my mind was put to ease right away! Highly recommend. I am absolutely going to use Olga in the future!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Brandon and Nicole were awesome hosts for my Bud Man. He enjoyed the whole week with them. Looking forward to having them watch him again this summer. Thanks!!”

“Billie was very informative, loving & caring when my Raelyn was under the weather. She kept me posted & sent pictures. Any questions I had she responded back immediately. She took excellent care of Raelyn. I recommend her highly. Very capable & kind. I will be using her services again. I trust her completely.”

“Elaine was absolutely wonderful! I’d definitely recommend booking with her. She’s took great care of my dog, Kenzo. Sent pics each day and responded in a timely manner. Thank you Elaine ❤️”
“Lauren was great with everything from special accommodations for our fur babies to meeting our needs as the pet owners. She kept us updated hourly/daily on how our puppies were doing and also sent pictures showing how much fun they were having. We highly recommend Lauren to anybody that is looking for a babysitter for their fur babies. While attending a graduation in Kansas seeing that our hotel is not pet friendly , we found her on Rover and that was the best decision we ever made. Thanks again so much Lauren and we appreciate you !”


About: After years of specialized transport with Mother Nature's Express, I am bringing that same USDA-certified level of safety and care to Mother Nature’s Boarding—a dedicated sanctuary for your furbabies. Professional Pedigree & Expert Care: I am not just a pet lover; I am a career animal professional with a decade of high-stakes experience. My background as a retired USDA-certified animal transporter means I have spent years safely navigating the logistics of animal behavior and safety across the country. I’ve handled animals of all temperaments and sizes, ensuring their health and security while traveling state-to-state and staying in pet-friendly luxury environments. Your furbaby's safety is my absolute priority. I am Red Cross Animal CPR certified, and my home is run with the precision and cleanliness of a professional facility, but with the heart of a dedicated stay-at-home parent. The Boutique Environment: Because I am home 24/7, your dog receives constant companionship and expert monitoring. My specialized setup includes: A dedicated "Guest Suite" located upstairs with me, completely separate from my personal pets to ensure a zero-stress transition. Safety-First Rotations: Utilizing my professional handling skills to manage pack dynamics, ensuring every guest feels like the "only" dog in the room. Expert Medical Oversight: Comfortable and experienced in administering medications and managing strict health protocols. A Lifetime of Devotion: My life has been defined by the bond between humans and animals. While I have over 12 years of adult experience managing my own multi-pet household—including dogs and cats—my journey actually began 25 years ago when I welcomed my first cat at age four, followed by a trio of small-breed dogs just two years later. I grew up learning the unique nuances of small-breed personalities, which is why I now specialize in providing a "big-dog-free" sanctuary for your little ones. As a career animal professional, pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it's the center of it. My schedule is designed to provide 24/7 supervision and companionship for my guest dogs. Because I am home full-time, I can maintain strict, consistent schedules for feeding, potty breaks, and medications that mimic your furbaby's home environment perfectly. My week is built around 'Restful Rotations.' While my mornings and evenings are for structured care, the daytime is filled with enrichment and one-on-one attention in our dedicated upstairs boutique area. This setup allows me to give your pet the high-touch care they deserve without the chaos of a traditional kennel. I care for every guest with the same expert precision I used as a USDA-certified animal transporter. My home's layout has been designed for maximum safety: all guest dogs enjoy the entire main/upstairs floor as their private 'boutique' sanctuary, completely separate from my personal pets who reside in their own personal basement suite while guests are here. Safety is my absolute priority. I utilize: Rotation-Based Exercise: I rotate my own dogs before guests enter the fully fenced backyard, ensuring a stress-free environment. The Double-Leash Rule: For front-yard strolls, I strictly follow the USDA safety standard of two points of contact (harness and collar) to ensure your pet is 100% secure at all times. Crated Security: To prevent nighttime scuffles and ensure a restful sleep, all guests sleep in their own individual, cozy crates with fresh water and orthopedic bedding. (The same protocol follows for feeding times to ensure absolute safety while eating) Medical Peace of Mind: Being certified in Animal CPR, I am highly experienced in monitoring health and administering specialized care.
“Five stars are not enough to convey how much we love Abby! Our dogs love her and she is an amazing dog carer. Highly recommend and will use again and again!”

“Erin IS SOOOOOOOOOO AWESOME 👌 SHE IS THE BEST SHE KEPT US INFORMED WITH HOW MY BABIES WERE AND THEY REALLY LIKED HER ALOT ...SHE IS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND EXCELLENT PLEASE BOOK WITH HER YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT SHE IS AWESOME!”

“A wonderful loving environment, where I could leave my furry friend and know she was being well taken care of. I highly recommend Karly and her family.. our teenage children adored my dog and even allowed her to sleep with them, just like she does at home.”

“Ryan was great with our cat, sent images throughout the whole stay and made sure to inform us if there was any shift in the cats behavior. Our cat even got to be around other dogs which was awesome! Will board with him again”
“Highly recommend. Was great with my dog and very easy to plan drop off/pick up. My dog loved it and good communication while he was staying there (pictures, updates, etc.).”

“This was our first time using Rover.com and Bridget stood out to us right away. She was very flexible with scheduling and very understanding when we had to change some times around. She watched Kaycee for a long weekend and Kaycee was immediately comfortable. She provided daily pictures so we continued to have peace of mind. During the meet and greet, she was prepared with questions regarding health, habits, and training; she eased my mind by answering all my questions regarding potty times, sleep arrangements, payments, and pick up/drop off times as well. We felt she was affordable and provided far more attention to our puppy than any dog boarding place would have. We will definitely be using Bridget again for a sitter. Kaycee loved her!”

“Absolutely amazing!! I can always trust them to take great care of my 2 old kitties while I'm away. I know that they are getting plenty of love and attention. So thankful for them!!”

“Mallory was a wonderful sitter for my two cats! It was very easy for me to leave them in her care. She followed all instructions and even helped clean up scattered litter, which is always appreciated when coming home from being away. Would recommend/book again!”


“Maddie is great! We have hired her for two vacations now, she is reliable for check-ins with my group of kittens and takes photos to let us know they’re doing well. We will definitely be using Maddie again in the future!”

“I freaking love Alex!!!!! She is always reliable, goes above and beyond, and makes my work travel weeks so much less stressful by knowing my fur babies and home are taken care of. Thank you 10x over!!! ❤️”

About: I've had pets for ages, cats & dogs. Right now I don't have any, home is lacking! I have a special heart for smaller dogs! Right now, I'm working from home part time. So am pretty flexible watching your pet. My preference is to have your pet here in my home. I have a large fenced in back yard, dogs seem to love roaming in it! I prefer to crate at night and have always crated my dog when leaving home. I find dogs seem more secure when crated.

“Monet was great. I had never left my cats alone for a long trip and was very anxious about them being taken care of. She was great with them and even coaxed my shy cat out and I think he has found a new best friend. I would refined recommend her and use her again for any trips I may take in the future”


About: I have experience, both personally and with side gigs, caring for cats of all ages, all energy levels, and MANY feistiness levels. Growing up with a barn-cat-turned-house-cat taught me how to read cat behaviors and not bother them unless they want to be bothered! But trust me, if they allow it, I can play or cuddle with your kitty for hours.

“I was very anxious about leaving my 2 cats to go on vacation. Joanie listened to my concerns and we discussed them. She reassured me and made me feel better. My cats were relaxed and happy when I returned. Joanie is awesome!!!!”


“Olga was fantastic! Our cats typically do not do very well with temporary changes in their environment and have not done well when boarded previously. Olga sent us regular updates and photos of them and it was very clear that they got much more comfortable staying with her after a short adjustment period. Can not recommend her enough! We will absolutely bring our pets back to her in the future any time they need to be boarded! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boys Olga!!!”

“Quick response for a late request. Let me know when she was headed over and checked if there was anything else to get taken care of. I appreciate the comms and tryin to play with Tanqueray. Def will use again.”

“Nathan is terrific! His care for my Pastis went above and beyond. My return home included being greeted by a well cared for fur angel, and a walk into a totally clean home. Litter was swept up, trash was taken out, dishes were cleaned. Nathan checked in at agreed upon times with pictures and assurances that all was well. I cannot begin to express my appreciation for his professionalism and personal care for my furry companion. This first visit will turn into more. Two thumbs up!”

“Morgan did a great job caring for Mr. Thick Whiskers. She provided helpful daily updates and found a new hiding spot for his food after it became apparent that we have an acrobat cat. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have always loved being around animals and caring for them. I am committed to providing loving, reliable care and making sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. When I come to care for your pets, play with them, and walk them, I will dedicate my time to giving them the attention and love they deserve. I am willing to adapt to your pet’s routine and individual needs to ensure they receive the best care possible. I have dogs of my own and understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. As a teacher and Master’s student, I pride myself on being responsible, dependable, and communicative. I will always treat your pets as if they were my own. I am currently enjoying my summer break from teaching and have a flexible schedule for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting. I can often accommodate daytime visits and some last-minute bookings. During the school year, I am available before and after work, evenings, weekends, and holidays. When caring for your pets, I will do my best to maintain their normal routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether I am caring for your pet in your home or on a walk, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a calm, caring environment where they can feel at ease. I enjoy spending time outdoors, taking dogs for walks, playing with them, and making sure they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need. I am also happy to provide updates and photos throughout the stay so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. For Example 30-Minute Dog Walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your pup the exercise, fresh air, and mental stimulation they need throughout the day. 30-Minute Drop-In Visits include potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, belly rubs, and plenty of attention to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away. House Sitting includes staying with your pets in the comfort of their own home, providing companionship, potty breaks, meals, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention throughout the stay.

“Maddy is a great sitter! She is quick to respond to messages and makes sure to provide you plenty of detail in her updates while you’re away. She was also really flexible about coordinating our meet & greet as well as our key exchange when I got back into town. Very grateful for Maddy and her service! Definitely recommend!”


“Lulu was amazing, she was so great when checking in on my little lady. Super helpful and caring along with providing great photos and updates over the whole sit.”

“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. 😄”
“Elaine is friendly and warm and I felt good about leaving Olive for her first day of doggie daycare with her. I will certainly plan on using her services again. Thank you Elaine.”

“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: I have had pets since I was a child, so I am very familiar with their needs, behavior and the care they require. I am a responsible, affectionate and patient person, and I always make sure that pets feel safe, comfortable and well taken care of. In addition, I also have experience taking care of children, which has helped me develop my patience, attention and sense of responsibility even more. I like to treat each pet with love and care, as if it were part of my own family. 🐾 I work only four days a week and usually get home early, so I have plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. I have had pets since I was a child, so I am very familiar with their needs and the affection they require. In my daily routine I always include time to play with them, feed them and make sure they are comfortable and well taken care of. Many friends trust me and bring me their pets when they need help, which has also given me experience taking care of different animals and adapting to their needs. 🐾 I offer pet care during the night in my home or at the owner's house, making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well taken care of. It includes food on time, walks if necessary, playtime, company during the night and a lot of attention and affection. I always follow the routine and instructions of the owner so that the pet feels as calm as possible. My goal is for the owners to have peace of mind knowing that their pet is in good hands and receiving care as if it were part of my family. 🐶🐱
“Ryan was fantastic! My boys really struggle in the summertime due to the heat. He took that seriously and made sure to only have them outside for brief potty breaks. The boys had fun making new friends at daycare! He made sure they stayed cool and hydrated! As a helicopter mom I really worry about my fur babies, so I really appreciated that he sent videos throughout their visit to show me they were doing fine and having a great time! He spent time with them as well! My boys were in good hands with Ryan!”

“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.”


“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!”

“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!”

“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!"”

About: With over 20 years of dedicated experience, I bring an unmatched level of expertise and heart to every pet I watch. I specialize in the gentle, attentive rhythms of senior care—from precise medication management to mobility support—as well as the patient, consistent guidance needed for puppies and young pets finding their paws. Because I understand animal behavior inside and out, I offer far more than just a watchful eye; I provide a calm, confident, and deeply intuitive environment where your best friend can truly thrive. When you leave your pet with me, you are choosing two decades of proven, top-tier expertise and total peace of mind. My schedule is built entirely around providing dedicated, focused attention, meaning I have plenty of time to make your dog my top priority every single day. Because my routine is highly flexible, pet care isn't just a task squeezed into my day—it is my day. Here is how that dedicated time translates into top-tier care for your pup: Frequent Potty Breaks & Outdoor Play: Having a wide-open schedule means I can maintain your dog's exact bathroom routine, minimizing accidents and keeping young or senior pets comfortable. Structured Attention: Whether it’s reinforcing basic training with a puppy or providing calm, gentle companionship for a senior dog, I have the time to sit, observe, and engage with your pet on their terms. Consistent Medication & Feeding Schedules: If your pet requires a strict routine for meals or medical needs, my availability ensures they are taken care of exactly on time, every time. Calm, Supervised Environment: Because I am around and available throughout the day, your dog will enjoy a secure environment with constant supervision and plenty of belly rubs. In short: I have the time, the space, and the flexibility to ensure your dog never feels rushed or overlooked. Their comfort and happiness set the pace for my entire week. Whether hosting your dog in my home or managing their care, my setup is designed to keep them safe, active, and completely entertained. I focus on creating a seamless blend of home comfort and exciting structure so your pup feels like they are on a premium vacation. Here is what your dog can look forward to: A Massive, Fully Fenced Backyard: Your pup will have all the room they need to stretch their legs, play fetch, and safely burn off energy in a large, secure outdoor space. Built-In Playmates: With my own friendly dogs around, your pup will have instant companion socialization and plenty of opportunities for supervised group play and afternoon naps. Endless Neighborhood Adventures: We are perfectly situated near fantastic local walking trails and dog parks. If your dog loves exploring new sights and smells, our daily routine includes plenty of fresh air and active outdoor adventures. A Seamless Home-Away-From-Home Experience: Because I am steps away from beautiful trails and have a secure yard right at home, I can perfectly balance high-energy outdoor activities with quiet, comfortable indoor downtime. The Goal: I mix a secure, dog-friendly home environment with the best activities the local area has to offer, ensuring your pet is happy, well-exercised, and thoroughly loved.
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.

“Ron did a great job accommodating my 10 month old standard poodle who can have a lot of energy at times. The other two dogs that we're also staying for day care on this day were a great match for Link. It is obvious that Ron loves the company of dogs and I plan on having Link visit him for daycare each week! Link came home happy, well cared for, and calm.”

“Another great daycare experience. Naji is so flexible and I love how she returns the food containers cleaned and returns the baggies the dog food was sent in. I appreciate her so much.”

“So grateful for Morgan’s help today - she even trimmed the dogs’ nails for me. Glad she was able to take both my dogs for daycare and she sent videos and pics throughout the day, which was so much appreciated. Morgan is super friendly and great at what she does. Looking forward to next time!”

“Lulu has been wonderful! She has been walking my 10 month old puppy who was not great on a leash but seems to be doing well! My puppy cries for her when she drops her off! Lulu is very punctual and professional and has answered any questions I have. She also leaves a detailed report after each walk. I would highly recommend her!”

“Olga always does a great job with my four dogs. Ivy has been even walking just with a collar and leash. Olga works on some of their training while she has them and my dogs have fun every week.”


About: Been taking care of a doggo since I was six... From bathing them after a nice roll in some poop to giving them all the snuggles in the world, I have done it all.

“Katie was AMAZING! There was great communication and she always showed up on time with a smile on her face. Our dog absolutely loved her. He would wait at the window for her when I would tell him that she was coming. I felt very comfortable in having her walk him and had absolutely zero worries. I will definitely be using her again in the future for all my dog walking needs.”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own in the past years, as well as taken care of many of my friends dogs in the past years. I run my own business from home so I have all the time in the world to be attentive of your pet. I will always keep you updated as well. I can have your pet kenneled until it’s time to go do business. I work from home so I will be checking your pet often. I have a big yard for your pet to run around in. It is not fenced but I will put the leash on the pet if needed.
“Morgan and her mini-assistant 😉 are they best team! They show up early, and are very communicative. Pippa absolutely adores them. Would recommend to anyone, and will definitely use again.”

About: Family pets have been part of most of my life. With no pets of my own now, I would like to enjoy and help other pet owners. I also enjoy walking. I am a retired RN who is looking for part time activities and income. I have elderly parents and grandchildren whom I help with but extra time for pet activities. Our yard is not fenced but larger sized and the neighborhood is mostly 5-20 acre homes. Our street is not a busy one, so walks are easy to do. I can also get to the Lees Summit doggy park in about 15 minutes.

We’re from out of town, but if we lived here, we would definitely be a repeat client.”
