Personalized care for your dog or cat - Orrick
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Orrick
“Outlaw and Lola were well taken care of and had a great staycation. They made me feel at ease and treated the pups like family. Thanks for that. It’s important to me and the only way I can enjoy my time off. We will be back.”
“Sharon helped us when we needed a sitter last minute for our Escobar. She kept us updated with pictures and videos! Escobar was well loved and cared for while we were away!!”
“Catherine was just awesome. We have a 10 lb jack Russell mix, Sammy, who is a very nervous, anxious little guy. When we went for our meet and greet, he just ran around and made himself at home. We have never left him with anyone other than family but I just felt extremely comfortable with Cathy and knew he would be good with her. She sent me some pics of him and kept me updated during his stay of 6 days. She keeps the large dogs separate from the smaller ones which was good for Sammy as he has not really been around other dogs much. She will definitely be my go to sitter from now on. If you choose to leave your pet with Cathy, you can relax and enjoy your trip because she will give him care, attention and all the love they need.”
“I went into Jacquelines house and just got the best vibe. I felt totally comfortable leaving my baby with her and her family! Which is such a huge relief because that always has not been the case with other places!! I was sent pictures of my boy having a great vacation while I was on mine! I would totally recommend!”
“We highly recommend Naji! She took wonderful care of Winston and Poppy for nine nights while we were on vacation. Communication was great, and we loved the updates and fun videos of the dogs. They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Ashley was amazing! I had a sudden family emergency and she took such great care of my dog. She was very responsive, sent lots of cute pictures and updates, and was flexible when I had to extend my trip by a day. She also sent my pup home with a paw print with her name on it, which was super cute. I would definitely book with Ashley again!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10 years old, including family pet care, professional pet care and personal pet care. I am experienced in dog walking, dog boarding, in home pet sitting and diabetic pets/sick pets. I have reliable transportation and am available at all times to give your pet the care they need! I am committed to being available at all times including weekends and evenings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it doesn’t feel like a task, it’s something I intentionally build into my schedule to make sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. This includes making sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of affection and attention. I love animals, so I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, playing, going for walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, and I follow any specific instructions the owner provides to ensure their pet feels happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a diabetic dog owner myself I am committed to giving your pet the best care I can!
“My fur babies had a blast with Kathleen! I had no worries that my babies were in the right hands for being taken care of by being given daily updates and photos. Kathleen was very sweet and responsive! Would definitely book again!”
“Bridget loves her doggie customers! She is cheerful and pleasant and detail oriented. She will keep you totally informed about your dog’s activities and their stay at her house. Our Samantha is an extremely old dog who has several needs. Bridget met everyone of them with a high degree of excellence. We totally recommend her to you. You will have no need to worry about the care your pet will receive. She’s great!”
“Lona & Alan took phenomenal care of our precious goldendoodle! They loved her like she was their own and really made sure they were respectful of our wishes for our dog’s care. I loved getting pictures and videos of our pup throughout her stay and she was clearly happy and well loved! My only concern with them watching our dog is if my dog would want to come with me after such an amazing time 😂 (which she did thankfully 😁). They were amazing to our dog and very trustworthy! Amazing experience ❤️”
“I used to be so anxious finding a place for my guy to go to when I’m out of town. He has a personality, and can be reactive in certain situations. I knew this was a possibility adopting a dog though. Knowing he’s in the best hands MacKenzie gives me so much peace when I need to leave since she has experience with training reactive dogs. He LOVES going, knows exactly where we are when we get close, and cannot get away from me fast enough after I open the car door. We love it here and will be booking another stay soon!”
“The best dog sitter in KC! My dog Coco has the best time with Angelica and her dogs. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter who's friendly, accommodating, and an overall great experience. You can tell she really cares about you and your dog”
“Nicole was great! Super responsive, even on short notice, as we had just learned about Rover.com. We were able to set up our booking & begin it within a few hours. Received pictures & reassuring texts from Nicole periodically through the entire booking. Will definitely use her in the future!”
“Amanda did an excellent job! She sent updates twice a day with pictures and was very understanding with how dogs are in new environments. Nice big fenced in backyard and a very dog friendly environment.”
“She always takes great care of my fur baby! Her and her family are wonderful. She keeps me updated, and I know my pup feels right at home with her and her family! Ms. Derrika is the best!”
“Kaya came home happy and tired. She clearly had a great time at Chloé and Collin's house! They communicated very well. My kids loved seeing pictures and videos of our pup.”
“Lindsey was a fantastic sitter for my baby. She sent a ton of updates and pictures so I knew Juno was having a great time and adapting to her stay well. I will not leave my baby with just anybody but Lindsey's demeanor and experience immediately put me at ease. Juno can have a difficult time eating when she is away from home but Lindsey took the time to hand feed her. I would definitely use her again!”

“Raelee was amazing with my puppy, Wrigley. She was on time, dedicated time to helping with inconveniences, and was very communicative! I will recommend her a million times over and over, she’s the best!”
“Jenna was amazing with my two girls! They are normally very shy but they came out on day one for her. She kept me updated daily with the girls and also with my place. She does treat your pets as hers.”
“Kaylese took fantastic care of my animal crew! She responded quickly to my last minute request, and the dogs and Kitty instantly loved her. They were relaxed and happy when we returned from our trip.”
“Olivia has sat for us multiple times over the past three years (multiple cats and a dog) ranging from two week in home stay to daily visits - always does a superb job and has given us confidence our 'family' will be well cared for.”
“Milo didn’t want to come home! He meowed at me all the way home and even quite awhile after we got home. He obviously bonded with Jessica and enjoyed having full play of her home. So grateful!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Orrick
“My babies absolutely love going to doggy daycare at Sharon and Mike's! They always come home exhausted and happy. If you have small dogs, do yourself (and your pocketbook) a favor and use Sharon for daycare and boarding instead of an expensive pet resort or vet!”

She’s always watching the dogs so I know he’s safe and in good hands. If you have a dog that likes to be outside or just wants to be loved on then I highly recommend Erin. My dog is very particular about who he trusts and has some separation anxiety but he is so comfortable with her. Erin treats my dog as if he were her own and I couldn’t ask for a better sitter for him.”

About: I have taken care of dogs for my entire life, we always had at least in our care as I was growing up. When I was 13 I got my first puppy, I potty trained him, leash trained him and trained him on the basics with a few tricks. When I turned 19 I became an Animal Caretaker for a dog daycare and boarding facility and loved it! I cared for up to 20 dogs at a time, observing dog behavior for any signs of aggression, anxiety distress or medical needs. I provided personalized care for dogs who needed it including giving shots, giving pills, staying up to date on their dietary guidelines and any restrictions they required, as well as any behavioral issues to look out for. I also maintained a clean environment for the safety of the dogs and staff. While I am not a certified dog trainer, I do know approved methods of correction and redirection for dogs. I will not correct your dog's behavior unless specifically asked, and we can talk about what is best for you and your pet! I have worked with dogs of all ages from a few months old to senior dogs as well as dogs of all sizes from teacup chihuahuas to great danes! I know leaving your pet in someone else's care is scary, which is why I emphasize that your and your furball's wellbeing are my number one priority! My schedule is currently wide open and available, but if or when that changes I will update my profile and any current clients, making sure you come first. Currently I live in an apartment with my two cats, they are groomed daily, the litter boxes are always clean, water fountains are always running and of course they have a clean open environment for their zoomie sessions! My motto is to leave a place better than I found it!

About: I've volunteered and worked at shelters taking care of both cats and dogs with basic training sessions as well as physical therapy recovery for dogs I am currently looking for work but I unfortunately am not having the best of luck so this would be my only responsibility at this time Well I currently am not able to board at home but I am familiar with kennel training as my own dog is trained but I'm able to adapt to the customers needs
About: I am blessed with a sweet boy of my own and have had dogs in the house growing up. I have always had a natural touch with animals. For instance, my neighbor has a Saint Bernard who is not sure of humans in general but especially human males, however this dog becomes a giant puppy when I come around. I am a full time student doing school online so pet care can be done anytime in the mornings and afternoons and on any day except for Sundays. I have a fenced in yard at home, though I keep a watchful eye on my dog when he is outside. While inside, I keep anything that might catch his eye out of reach, and make sure he is always properly entertained. This happens to be easy for my dog since he loves antlers to chew on.
About: As an ER vet med worker, I understand that pets deserve to be treated with care and compassion. I have worked in the field for over 4 years and have experience with an array of behaviors and sizes. I own a german shepherd who is quite reactive, so I have special interests in caring for reactive and hard to handle pets. I do german style training with my own dog, and love to focus on obedience training. I am comfortable giving a variety of medications as needed and providing the best care for your fur babies. I work at an emergency veterinary hospital, so I do pet sitting on the side. I am familiar with the different lifestyle needs for each pet and willing to accommodate and provide:) Being a veterinary worker and student, I am very knowledgeable on pet care, illnesses, and many other aspects. I have cared for many pets in critical situations. I have a true passion for ensuring the best care for pets- physically and mentally!
About: I’ve always taken care of animals, but for the past five years I’ve been doing it on my own.I would watch friends and family’s pets whenever they needed it. Cats or dogs, it doesn’t really matter. I work Monday - Friday 8 to 5. I am able to take some breaks through out the day to help out when I need to. If there’s an emergency I’m sure I can work something out. I love taking dogs on walks and playing with them. I have dealt with small dogs to big dogs, so I’m comfortable with both. I’ve also have done basic training with them.
About: I have taken care of my grandsons sick cat by giving medication when needed. I have cared for my neighbors cat. I have brought their cats into my house so I could keep an ee on them. I am a retired grandma that believes all pets should be spoiled with love. I love all animals and am very excited for this opportunity to house them. I have a nice size fenced backyard with lots of shade. I have a lot of free time to give to other pets. Dogs are the love of my life and I am so very happy to help them, love them, feed them and play with them. I think it will be exciting to watch other pets.

About: I’ve had many many different types of animals all of my life such as pigs, dogs, chickens, cats, and more and I think I have a lot of experience in taking care of the animals too. I would love to watch your animals whenever you need me too! I have basketball in the morning until 9 but after that I’m free and Wednesday I have games later in the night but I can watch them any time between then! I really would love seeing your animals and giving them love ! I can deal with about any size of animals and I’m not allergic to any other animals! I hope you consider me when looking for an animal sitter and I will ask for reasonable prices!
About: As an insurance agent I look forward to my afternoon walks. So why not enjoy them a lot more with your furry family member. I have always had a dog and have two now. I enjoy walking, running and playing with them just like I will enjoy playing and walking your dog or dogs. I'm adult, responsible, love dogs and am even an Eagle Scout :) I have a life time of experience with dogs and always seem to be their favorite at friends houses and parties. I look forward to sharing my day with your dog :) Whether I'm just dropping by to let them out or exploring the neighborhood on a nice walk in good or bad weather. I look forward to making both your dogs and yours acquaintance. I have a super flexible schedule so I can make meeting and playing with your dog a priority. I work all over the city and am able to get to all parts of town. When taking care of your pet I will be fully engaged with them. I don't just let them out the door. I play, pet and make sure your dog is happy and having fun.
About: My first dog was a St. Bernard named Abner when I was two and I've loved and had dogs in my life ever since . I always end up being the one people ask to watch their fur babies or help with them ( baths, training, socializing with people). I've assisted in training and working with dogs that were considered to have behavioral issues. Utilizing guidance and the experience of military k-9 handlers in the past helped me develop a confidence in taking the lead with dogs that are considered to have behavioral issues . The love and protection I've felt for my own fur babies is something that can reassure you that no matter what you need for me to know about your pet ...I will hear you and adhere to it. I know that I've been considered particular when stressing the care expected of my own .You'll have the security of knowing that no matter how "small " , that every detail will be important. From their favorite toy to medications, to fears and dislikes. I'm very active and can give high drive pups the outlet they need . A more mellow or elderly dog will get equal attention with lots of snuggles. Reassurance will be plentiful for the pups or kitties that are nervous or struggle with separation. I'm experienced in caring for elderly pets and the gentleness and patience needed there. Personal losses and empathy developed caring for my own through senior years will allow you the trust that I genuinely know how precious they are . I've had experience with service and service dogs in training and understand how essential the consistency and handler's direction is when caring for them. NOBODY knows your pet better than you and it's upsetting when guidelines aren't followed by someone. It's not just annoying but can be nerve-wracking when a sitter doesn't seem to take things seriously. With me ,if you say your cat won't eat unless I shake the bag twice and meow .. I got you . If you say that your dog is an escape artist and securing the perimeter like I'm transferring a prisoner is needed...I got you . I have a genuine love for animals and tend to feel a connection with people who know how deep that bond is . No matter what the level of care needed , I'll work with you to create the best experience that your beloved furry family member can have in your absence. I work remotely and am able to be flexible in my availability. Odd hours , including late nights or early mornings are not an issue . Overnights/ extended care are possibilities too . The circumstances of in home care will vary depending on your preference and location. I'm available for in home care ( overnights / vacation stays) in your home. I bring my own bedding/ food and will be the only person in or around your home. I'm comfortable with reasonable camera surveillance, drug testing, background checks or anything else needed to offer you security that not only your pet is in trusted hands but your home is secure too.

“Outlaw and Lola were well taken care of and had a great staycation. They made me feel at ease and treated the pups like family. Thanks for that. It’s important to me and the only way I can enjoy my time off. We will be back.”
“Catherine was just awesome. We have a 10 lb jack Russell mix, Sammy, who is a very nervous, anxious little guy. When we went for our meet and greet, he just ran around and made himself at home. We have never left him with anyone other than family but I just felt extremely comfortable with Cathy and knew he would be good with her. She sent me some pics of him and kept me updated during his stay of 6 days. She keeps the large dogs separate from the smaller ones which was good for Sammy as he has not really been around other dogs much. She will definitely be my go to sitter from now on. If you choose to leave your pet with Cathy, you can relax and enjoy your trip because she will give him care, attention and all the love they need.”
“I went into Jacquelines house and just got the best vibe. I felt totally comfortable leaving my baby with her and her family! Which is such a huge relief because that always has not been the case with other places!! I was sent pictures of my boy having a great vacation while I was on mine! I would totally recommend!”
“We highly recommend Naji! She took wonderful care of Winston and Poppy for nine nights while we were on vacation. Communication was great, and we loved the updates and fun videos of the dogs. They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Ashley was amazing! I had a sudden family emergency and she took such great care of my dog. She was very responsive, sent lots of cute pictures and updates, and was flexible when I had to extend my trip by a day. She also sent my pup home with a paw print with her name on it, which was super cute. I would definitely book with Ashley again!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10 years old, including family pet care, professional pet care and personal pet care. I am experienced in dog walking, dog boarding, in home pet sitting and diabetic pets/sick pets. I have reliable transportation and am available at all times to give your pet the care they need! I am committed to being available at all times including weekends and evenings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it doesn’t feel like a task, it’s something I intentionally build into my schedule to make sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. This includes making sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of affection and attention. I love animals, so I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, playing, going for walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, and I follow any specific instructions the owner provides to ensure their pet feels happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a diabetic dog owner myself I am committed to giving your pet the best care I can!
“Lona & Alan took phenomenal care of our precious goldendoodle! They loved her like she was their own and really made sure they were respectful of our wishes for our dog’s care. I loved getting pictures and videos of our pup throughout her stay and she was clearly happy and well loved! My only concern with them watching our dog is if my dog would want to come with me after such an amazing time 😂 (which she did thankfully 😁). They were amazing to our dog and very trustworthy! Amazing experience ❤️”
“I used to be so anxious finding a place for my guy to go to when I’m out of town. He has a personality, and can be reactive in certain situations. I knew this was a possibility adopting a dog though. Knowing he’s in the best hands MacKenzie gives me so much peace when I need to leave since she has experience with training reactive dogs. He LOVES going, knows exactly where we are when we get close, and cannot get away from me fast enough after I open the car door. We love it here and will be booking another stay soon!”
“Nicole was great! Super responsive, even on short notice, as we had just learned about Rover.com. We were able to set up our booking & begin it within a few hours. Received pictures & reassuring texts from Nicole periodically through the entire booking. Will definitely use her in the future!”
“Amanda did an excellent job! She sent updates twice a day with pictures and was very understanding with how dogs are in new environments. Nice big fenced in backyard and a very dog friendly environment.”
“Kaya came home happy and tired. She clearly had a great time at Chloé and Collin's house! They communicated very well. My kids loved seeing pictures and videos of our pup.”
“Lindsey was a fantastic sitter for my baby. She sent a ton of updates and pictures so I knew Juno was having a great time and adapting to her stay well. I will not leave my baby with just anybody but Lindsey's demeanor and experience immediately put me at ease. Juno can have a difficult time eating when she is away from home but Lindsey took the time to hand feed her. I would definitely use her again!”
“Taylor was great! She made her home super comfy for our two dogs; one of which tends to be very anxious. Taylor put her at ease, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation, knowing our pups were being well loved.”
“This was our fist time boarding our dogs. They did great and loved Joseph. He made them feel comfortable right away. They came back happy and tired. Would definitely recommend Joseph.”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
“Gail was very accommodating for my two dogs. She sent daily updates and pictures to put me at ease. My older dog Marble has anxiety and I knew she would take a few days to settle down. Gail assured me that she was doing ok. Ginger is a puppy and very high maintenance. I am glad she made friends to play with.”
“Once again a great stay for Nelson. This time he knew where we were going and got excited when I turned into Noreen's neighborhood. I got plenty of picture updates of Nelson throughout his entire stay. He enjoyed the walks and playing in the back yard. It snowed and he loves the snow. I highly recommend Noreen and will use her services again in the future for any trips I may have upcoming.”
