“This was our first time using Rover and I’m so happy we found Griffin! He watched our chihuahua for a week and I think she had a better time on vacation than we did! The kids (and adults) absolutely loved getting the picture/video updates and we so appreciated how they let Tallulah make herself feel right at home. We will definitely be asking for Griffin again next time we travel.”

“Prior to meeting Ron, I was very nervous about leaving Mina at a sitters or dog daycare. But after meeting Ron, all of those reservations and nervousness completely disappeared. He provides an excellent dog care service. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needed a highly qualified, capable and caring dog sitter. If Mina could speak I'm sure she would say the same! ”

“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!"”

“We feel like we won the lottery with Stephanie and Willow. Odin is so so so happy to visit and they take such great care of him and he has friends to play with. We are so GRATEFUL!”


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!

“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.”
“Jessica & Josh were amazing! They excitedly agreed to take care of my very young puppy. They sent lots of updates, responded quickly, and were flexible with pickup/dropoff. Ill definitely use them again and I highly recommend!”

“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 🥰🥰”

“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.”

“Lindsey was wonderful with our pup, Carlton! He spent several hours exploring in the amazing backyard with the sweetest dog, Stella. Love Lindsey’s care of our boy!”


“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.”

About: Hi! I'm Michelle, I've been dogsitting for friends and family since ~2016 and finally became a dog mom in 2020--it's the best! My husband, Brad, and I both love animals and are excited to join the Rover sitter community. We are comfortable with dogs of any age and any breed, and would care for your dog as if s/he were our own. We can administer medications as needed (we mostly have experience with oral and topical meds, but are willing to learn what's needed for your furry friend) and are very attentive to your dog's diet and feeding regime. We can't wait to welcome your dog into our home while you are away! Michelle works from home so your dog won't be on their own for long periods while staying at our home. We love taking our dog, Joni, on walks (& runs) everyday (we usually go several times each day) and we have a large fenced in yard for additional playtime, so your pup will get lots of outside time to burn off energy and sniff. Your dog will have full access to our home, just as our Joni does, with a variety of toys and bed options (including couches) available throughout the day. You'll get regular photo updates of your pup's adventures while you're away (unless otherwise requested). My husband and I have a large, fenced in backyard that's perfect for zoomies and playtime, and live in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Our 6 year old pup, Joni, is always looking for new friends and someone to share her toys with (she's up to date on her vaccinations and preventative meds and ask that your dog be as well). If your dog is crate trained, we'd be happy to find a space to set that up for them in our home during their stay, or they are welcome to use Joni's old crate which we can set up if needed. Additionally, feel free to bring any toys or bedding/blankets that help make your dog feel at home; we want him/her to have what they need to be comfy while you are away.

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.
“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 has walked our dog several times during the day. We appreciate his punctuality and ability to help on short notice. He came to meet our dog before the scheduled walk and we really appreciated it. Good communication as well.”

“Michael does excellent work. He is always on time, provides excellent, thorough info on the walk and status of our pet. He is very caring, and playful with our pet. Michael is also respectful of our home, takes off his shoes when entering and always cleans our pets paws after the walk. I highly recommend Michael.”

“Jessica was wonderful with our Irish Setter, Brody! She is incredibly professional, compassionate, and patient. She is very knowledgeable having cared for a variety of breeds and having had her own active dogs in the past. She was timely and creative at ensuring he got exercised properly even on days where the weather wasn't cooperative. When we arrived home, he was excited yet calm and happy. Clearly, he was well cared for each day. Thank you, Jessica!”

“Really appreciated how Jennifer wanted to get to know our doggie better before she is boarding him in March. She genuinely was interested in what was best for him and putting him at ease. You could tell how comfortable she was with any situation and we can't wait for Zachy to spend some time with her!”

“Amber is great with my malinois Hendrix! She always leaves good notes on how he did on his walks and sends photos so I get to see my sweet boy while I’m at work! She has great communication and has been very flexible with me.”

“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!”

About: One of the happiest days of my life was when my parents surprised us with a dog for Christmas as a kid. I have a year of working at a dog daycare under my belt and come from a family of dog lovers (seriously we'll watch entire dog shows together and commentate it the whole time). Even though my dog has recently passed, I am very excited to help care for your dog!!! Currently my schedule is wide open for looking after dogs! Recent college graduate in graphic design, not a great market out there lol... so looking for something to do. Fenced in backyard with plenty of space to roam. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, and love walking around town. My sibling is a dog groomer and is also quite capable at caring for dogs in case I'm not around. Full of love and patience, but also able to be firm when needed.
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.
“Mia was very punctual, trustworthy, and a great playmate & walker for our Ralph. She communicated throughout the day and I really appreciated her attention to his needs. I would highly recommend her services to anyone!”


About: I have volunteered at Kansas City Pet Project since 2024 where I have walked dogs with many different attitudes, been trained to help socialize puppies and been trained in working with shy and fearful dogs. I’m available 10am-4pm for dog walking. I am available throughout the week and I am happy to work with you if you need a time outside that range. I am flexible! I care for all dogs and homes of my clients as if they were my own. Your dog will get all the attention and care they deserve!
“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.”

“Can’t imagine having a better person to walk our dog, Guinness. Clearly loves dogs, conscientious, punctual and an easy going personality. Not to mention Guinness LOVED him immediately. We are very pleased and look forward to having him back.”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with a caregiver, so there were some nerves involved. Overall, we had an excellent experience with Michelle from start to finish! She’s was very thoughtful and attentive to Spice, we got to bring her own bed and food and she seemed to settle in right away in Michelle’s home. We got some fun updates along the way, and Spice made a buddy or two while she was there. We plan to make doggy daycare a regular thing since she did so well. Highly recommend and will book again any time a trip comes up.”
