“Lindsay and family were awesome! They took such good care of Ozzie and sent lots of updates. They have a great yard that she was able to run around in and the experience was great overall. We will definitely choose them again.”

“My puppy ended up giving her some troubles by going potty in her house. I offered to give her extra for the trouble as I didn’t expect him to do that. When I went to pick him up she said she would love to watch him again and they had fun with him. I will definitely be asking her again to watch my puppy when needed!”

“This was our first time using Rover to board our energetic Golden while out of town and I was nervous, but we picked the right person. She was great, she sent us pics, videos, and updates. I can tell Archie had so much fun playing with her dogs and running around in her yard.”

About: I have completed countless hours of training and grooming with dogs. I am certified with the American Red Cross to provide if needed Canine CPR. I am able to provide day care and boarding needs to pet parents. I have had countless hours in training on canine behaviors and temperaments. I will provide care for your pet while you are away. I will always treat them as if they are my own. We have a very large fenced yard for your pet to run in while you are away. If its cold outside we do have an area indoors.

“Eric and Kristy took great care of Koka. We appreciated the personal care she recieved. The photos and updates were great. She seemed comfortable. They even helped her through her first night when she was feeling some anxiety sleeping at a new house.”

“Jenneth and her family watched my two dogs for a week and they were awesome! I received regular updates and photos. My dogs loved playing with her dog. I was especially thankful for her fenced-in yard and allowing my dogs to be on her furniture. I received photos of my dogs snuggled-up to her kids which brought me joy. I would use Jenneth again.”

“I was very nervous leaving my fur baby for 2 weeks. Kayla eased me with pictures and updates and Henry had a good Dogation! He fitted right into the family and will definitely recommend for a home from home for your fur babies and will be booking again in the future.”

“Robin was very understanding with our dog, Tabitha's needs - with her in mourning after the recent passing of our other dog, her closest companion and with us needing to be away from home for 8 days. Robin listened to all of the details of feeding and meds. Then she stayed in contact with us, updating us on Tabitha's adjustment to her new surroundings, sending great pics and playing the games she likes to play (FRISBE!) Robin was also VERY accomodating with our crazy flight schedules on drop off & pick up. Tabitha had such a good time she has returned to her joyful self! I highly reccomend Robin and she will be the first person we will reach out to the next time we need a dog sitter!”


“Abbie took great care of the dogs. She was accommodating and easy to work with arranging drop off and pick up. I would trust her with your furry family members. They will come home happy and you will feel the same knowing they were well cared for during your trip.”

About: Dogs have been part of my family for most of my life. I enjoy finding out what their personality is like as well as what their preferences for play/affection are. I recently retired from my job so I have very flexible schedule now. i will have time available to help people out with pet care. When caring for others pets, I ensure all of their needs are taken care of. My yard is not fenced in, so if they are staying with me I will take dogs out in my yard on their leash. I am a runner so I can run with them if they enjoy that type of activity. There is plenty of room where I live for running and walking!

“Jana did a great job with both our cats, she followed the instructions given to her plus went the extra mile to send us pictures while we were away. Highly recommend her and will be working with her again in the future.”

“As usual, Eloisa did a fantastic job of caring for my two cats. They both like her, and I like knowing that Maya is getting her medicine and that they are both getting food and water and clean litter boxes when they should. Eloisa is a kind, caring pet sitter. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Highly recommend! Bekha was great at communicating with us and providing updates on our dog. We had to extend our trip and she was available, which we appreciate having the same sitter- same familiarity with our dog, routine, etc.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lily was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond while caring for our pets during our Florida trip. She communicated with us after every visit, sent plenty of pictures, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She administered medication to our feisty cat, Piper, without any issues, and took such loving, attentive care of our elderly dog, Gabby. It was clear she genuinely cared about them and treated them like they were her own. I can’t recommend Lily enough! We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pets, and we’ll absolutely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you, Lily!”


“Jessica went above and beyond in caring for my 3 cats while I was gone. She spent extra time making sure my house was clean and made an extra trip back to check on my cats. She always responds quickly when I contact her and was always right on time for check ins. I would highly recommend her and hope I can use her again.”


“Brooke went the extra mile for my cat! She sent lots of pictures and videos and updated me after each visit. I know my cat was very well taken care of with her! Will definitely book with Brooke again!”

About: Hi! I’m a full-time registered nurse looking to pick up some side gigs doing what I already love—caring for animals. I have a strong medical background and bring a calm, attentive, and responsible approach to pet care, including pets with medical needs or special instructions. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve personally cared for cats and dogs for over 5+ years and feel comfortable with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. Whether it’s walks or drop-ins, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well taken care of while you’re away. I work as a Registered Nurse and find that working with animals helps recharge my compassion and social battery before my next shift. I work 3-4 days a week and like having the flexibility to pick up jobs through Rover when I am available. Each of my cats have their own special needs. I am comfortable giving medications to your pets if needed as well as brushing, bathing, going on walks, and of course giving lots of love and affection. I use a pet sitter myself when I am out of town and know how important it is to pawrents that their babies are safe. No matter the pet, big or small, I'm happy that you would trust me to care for them while you're away!
About: Love to work with all types of pets! Years of experience with dogs and cats, I am very attentive to care instructions and always leave the pet and parent happy! I’m always family & friends first option for pet care🤍 which is where I got my experience from. In Saint Joseph for college, originally from Hawai’i so I’m pretty far from home. I love pets so this is the best way I could be spending my free time. I am very attentive to care instructions I do love dogs of all sizes🥰 I am not knowledgeable about trainings however I do appreciate a dog that can listen to simple commands.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets, I bring both deep personal commitment and professional insight to every pet I care for. My background includes working in a veterinary clinic in an administrative role, where I gained valuable knowledge of animal health, client communication, and the importance of attentive, compassionate care. I have shared my home with several senior pets over the years and understand the patience, gentleness, and specialized attention they require. Elderly animals hold a special place in my heart, and I am especially attuned to their comfort, routines, and medical needs. Your pets will be cared for with the same thoughtfulness, reliability, and respect I give my own.

About: I have never not had cats in my home. Growing up on a farm we had a ton of barn cats and I had my cat Tabitha for 21 years! I have a disabled cat that was shot and his leg is paralyzed. A cat who has an enlarged heart and asthma. I'll do anything for kitty babies. I go to the shelter to pet the ones available. We recently adopted 2 more kittens.

“If I could leave Marianna a 500 star review, that still wouldn’t be enough. I needed last minute care due to a medical emergency, and she not only accommodated my need with less than 18 hours notice, but she did so with a level of care for my kitties that I have never experienced before. Within 15 minutes of her arrival, I had photos and videos of all of my babies (which is no small feat in itself), and she continued to provide multiple updates, photos, and videos. She was so so so loving and gentle with my kitties, stayed with them all day and overnight, and gave me the comfort and reassurance I was desperately needing. I will absolutely be hiring her every time I need a sitter moving forward (hopefully sans the hospital stay and ideally for a fun getaway instead). Thank you so much, Marianna. There are not enough ways to express my gratitude!”

About: I am married and have two daughters and a son. They are 12, 8, and 5. I have a wonderful German Shepherd, an Alaskan Klee Kai, and a 20 pound cat named Karen. We love caring for other animals.

We have a German shepherd that loves the extra play time!
“Wonderful!! Kayla and Taylor LOVE animals. They were so amazing. Excellent communication and attention to detail. Great pics sent at every check in. Do not hesitate to book them. Will definitely use them again.”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience caring for equine, dogs, cats and many other animals. While I'm comfortable caring for a wide variety of pets, my greatest knowledge and experience are with equine, cats and dogs. I previously worked at KV Dressage, where I expanded my equine care skills and developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and daily management. I currently work at the hospital and am looking to provide flexible, part-time pet sitting because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I strive to provide reliable, compassionate care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are in experienced, trustworthy hands. I currently work full-time at Mosaic Health Care, so my availability varies from week to week.

Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. My home features a fully fenced yard, providing plenty of space for supervised play and exercise. I have two friendly, fully vaccinated dogs of my own—a senior Black Lab/Boxer mix who loves cuddles and relaxing, and an energetic Black Mouth Cur mix puppy who enjoys playing all day. If your dog enjoys socializing, they'll have wonderful companions. If they prefer their own space, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your home and follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you're away.
“I was visiting the area to attend a course and found this resource on Rover. Lindsey (and her family) is absolutely wonderful! She accepted my fur baby as one of her own. Noodle loved being there which was a great relief to me so I could attend my courses without additional pet caregiving stresses. I can’t say enough good things about this experience and will definitely use the service (especially with Lindsey) any time I am in the area. I hope that if I have to travel elsewhere that I find someone as great as Lindsay to care for my baby Noodle.”

About: I've either owned or taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. I love furry friends and I'd love to help you. I'm currently working a position remotely with some minor travel.

My house is heated and cooled based on the time of year.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was at least 10 years old. I have pet sat, walked, fed, bathed, and helped provide basic training for friends, family, and neighbors who relied on me to care and love for their pets. Animals have always been a big part of my life! They love unconditionally and deserve to be spoiled with walks, play, love and treats!! My own pets and experiences with other animals has brought me so much joy that I want to give back to those animals that live in my community! I work as a teacher Monday-Friday so during the week I’m only available in the evening. Weekends are much more open! However, once summer hits I will be available during the day, evening, and weekends! I have had experience with dogs and cats as pets! When I had dogs I would provide daily walks, feedings twice a day, water, and of course daily plays. On top of that, grooming was a top priority to keep them clean and brushed so their coat and skin is well cared for. I currently have two cats! They are fed twice a day and their liter boxes are emptied every day as well. They are brushed regularly. They are inside kitties and play with the toys provided to them and take lots of cat naps between sun bathing in the sunlight! ☺️

I’m also comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention and consistency, as well as senior pets who may need a calmer environment, medication reminders, or extra care.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets, I bring a deep personal commitment to every pet I care for. When I come to care for, play with, and walk your dogs I'll dedicate my time to really getting to know them and their preferences. I have shared my home with several senior pets over the years and understand the specialized attention they require. Elderly animals hold a special place in my heart, and I am especially attuned to their comfort, routines, and medical needs. I have three pets - a spunky, energetic Chihuahua and two senior cats. Your pets will be cared for with the same thoughtfulness, reliability, and respect I give my own. I’m a professional photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to be reliable and present when pet families need support. Running my own business has taught me the importance of communication, trust, and attention to detail. I’m also a parent to a teenager, so responsibility and consistency are a big part my everyday life. I value routine, patience, and creating a calm, steady environment, which is something pets truly benefit from. In my free time, you’ll often find me outdoors exploring nature with my camera, taking walks, or simply enjoying fresh air. I appreciate the simple joy animals bring to our lives and feel honored to care for them with the same thoughtfulness and respect I give my own. I know it can be hard on animals when their humans are away. Transitions can feel big for them. I move slowly, pay attention, and let trust build naturally so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re gone. My animals are the world to me. I love the everyday rhythms — the walks, the play, the brushing, the quiet moments on the couch. I lead with love and consistency, and I bring that same energy into your home. When I care for your pets, they’ll have plenty of playtime, walks tailored to their needs, and as much cuddle time as they’d like (or space, if that’s more their style). You can trust that I will respect your home, honor your routines, and care for your animals with the same attentiveness and affection I give my own.

About: I grew up on a farm, so I was raised around animals. I volunteer at a wildlife rescue in Blue Springs, Missouri. I partner with them to transport and foster any wildlife in need. I'm a plant-based eater, I love animals so much I will not even eat them. I risk my own life to save animals. So when I say I'm an animal lover I absolutely mean that 100%. I have six cats, one Dog, four Snakes, one Bearded Dragon, one Tarantula, 2 fish, 2 mice and a disabled footless Rooster as pets. They mean the world to me. I would go without before they would. Growing up my parents were AKC dog breeders . We had Beagles, Basset Hounds, Labradors and Pomeranians. So I've had my fair share of helping deliver babies. I also did Wildlife removal from homes. I would exclude or trap and relocate any Wildlife that was invading homes. Never kill any. I would educate people on the importance of Wildlife and why they are here. I have taken my animals to schools to do educational programs to teach the children to love all animals. I have taken my animals to educational programs in the summer at kids summer camps in Savannah, Missouri. Because I work with Wildlife I do have my rabies vaccination. I have always pet sit for my friends and family when they are out of town and local farmers when they are needing help. I love nature going on walks and being outside is my favorite. I'm experienced in giving oral medications and shots. I currently work full time but in able to leave at any given time to care for the pets. This includes going for walks, playing in the yard, staying the night, staying for feedings and giving medications. I live in the country with a big barn. I do have a fenced run where a dog could stay outside. I am able to crate your dog in my home at night and let him/her run free when I am home.
About: I have had animals all my life and have watched neighbors cats and dogs!

About: I have tons of pet care experience. I used to work in a daycare/ boarding facility. I have also cared for dogs in my home before. I am available every day of the week with flexible hours.

I will love your dog as much as you do and will treat them like my own. I am respectful and responsible with any of your personal needs or wants when it comes you and your four legged friends. Please let me care for your pet while you are gone and trust that I will take good care of them. I am home full time with the exception of personal outings and running errands. I will be able to let your pups out for potty breaks, go for walks and have plenty of time to play. I make sure that a leash is always attached before opening a door to take your dog for a walk unless fenced in. We currently don’t have a fence, but will hopefully soon. We have two friendly dogs.
About: I have three dogs, two wonderful twin golden retrievers that are 5 years old. They are my whole world and so are my sister and brother’s dogs/cats! My sister has been doing rover in KC for over 7 years so it’s been a great way to experience rover and the necessities for all kinds of pets. Additionally, I’ve been a volunteer at Unchained Melodies puppy nursery and KC Pet Project for the last few years <3 I’m currently a post-graduate student preparing for medical school here in a year so I have a lot of time for longer term pups. I’m preparing for work part-time as well in the fall but I have a very open and flexible schedule. I have helped dog sit for years now and of course I’ve taken care of my own dogs since they were just babies. Unfortunately, I’m unable, for the most part, to have animals stay at my house however, I’m open if necessary. I walk and feed my own dogs daily and they take a lot of space so I want them to feel comfortable in their own environment.

My schedule is flexible, with some weeks working only one weekday and others working up to three weekdays. I do work most weekends, but I'm happy to discuss my availability in advance to find a schedule that works for both you and your pet. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I'll always be upfront about my availability and committed to providing reliable, dependable care whenever I'm booked. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. My home features a fully fenced yard, providing plenty of space for supervised play and exercise. I have two friendly, fully vaccinated dogs of my own—a senior Black Lab/Boxer mix who loves cuddles and relaxing, and an energetic Black Mouth Cur mix puppy who enjoys playing all day. If your dog enjoys socializing, they'll have wonderful companions. If they prefer their own space, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your home and follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you're away.

“Lindsay and family were awesome! They took such good care of Ozzie and sent lots of updates. They have a great yard that she was able to run around in and the experience was great overall. We will definitely choose them again.”

“My puppy ended up giving her some troubles by going potty in her house. I offered to give her extra for the trouble as I didn’t expect him to do that. When I went to pick him up she said she would love to watch him again and they had fun with him. I will definitely be asking her again to watch my puppy when needed!”

“This was our first time using Rover to board our energetic Golden while out of town and I was nervous, but we picked the right person. She was great, she sent us pics, videos, and updates. I can tell Archie had so much fun playing with her dogs and running around in her yard.”

“Eric and Kristy took great care of Koka. We appreciated the personal care she recieved. The photos and updates were great. She seemed comfortable. They even helped her through her first night when she was feeling some anxiety sleeping at a new house.”

“Jenneth and her family watched my two dogs for a week and they were awesome! I received regular updates and photos. My dogs loved playing with her dog. I was especially thankful for her fenced-in yard and allowing my dogs to be on her furniture. I received photos of my dogs snuggled-up to her kids which brought me joy. I would use Jenneth again.”

“I was very nervous leaving my fur baby for 2 weeks. Kayla eased me with pictures and updates and Henry had a good Dogation! He fitted right into the family and will definitely recommend for a home from home for your fur babies and will be booking again in the future.”

“Robin was very understanding with our dog, Tabitha's needs - with her in mourning after the recent passing of our other dog, her closest companion and with us needing to be away from home for 8 days. Robin listened to all of the details of feeding and meds. Then she stayed in contact with us, updating us on Tabitha's adjustment to her new surroundings, sending great pics and playing the games she likes to play (FRISBE!) Robin was also VERY accomodating with our crazy flight schedules on drop off & pick up. Tabitha had such a good time she has returned to her joyful self! I highly reccomend Robin and she will be the first person we will reach out to the next time we need a dog sitter!”


“Abbie took great care of the dogs. She was accommodating and easy to work with arranging drop off and pick up. I would trust her with your furry family members. They will come home happy and you will feel the same knowing they were well cared for during your trip.”
