“From the moment I met Shannon, I knew that my pet was gonna be taking care of! She’s awesome understanding and knows what she’s doing when it comes to dealing with people and pets. My dog Bailey had a really amazing experience and I will be definitely using Shannon in the future. Thank you so much again!”
“Bridget was very good with my dachshund over the weekend. I rarely board lady. But Bridget made her feel very comfortable and happy. Lady even enjoyed her roommates as well. I liked that she didn't have to stay in a kennel the whole stay. She got to go out and stretch her legs and play with her roommates while there.”
“Susan and her family were great sitters! My pup seemed so happy to stay with them, and the photos Susan shared during my trip left me feeling at ease about being away for a weekend.”
“Lona and Alan were amazing at watching my baby! They have wonderful ideas and games for mental stimulation. They make sure to get all the details and preferences for caring for your pet, and are on top of sending updates multiple times a day so you don’t worry. I have no doubt for any future trips I’ll take that my dog will be in great hands!”
“Brandi is the best. I’ll never be able to leave Bo with anyone else. She is the standard by which all other dog care professionals should be judged by.”
“Dana was very responsive and very easy to deal with in setting up my booking for Rocco. She and her dog, Herbie, were very good hosts and it is obvious to me that Rocco really enjoyed his stay with Dana and family. I highly recommend them for boarding your dog!”
“Damonte is incredibly kind, reliable, and generous with Kuba and Ashanti. He always keeps us informed by sending updates and videos, which gives us great peace of mind while we’re away. Our dogs absolutely love him and treat him like family. We are so grateful for the care and attention he provides, and he will always be our go-to pet care provider. Thank you, Damonte, for taking such wonderful care of our furry family members! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommended!”
“Loving caring home. I am a Tiger fur baby mom and I felt completely comfortable leaving Daisy with Linda. She was very flexible and Daisy was happy and well taken care of. Linda’s home is very pet friendly and it was obvious she loves dogs!”
“Lori was great with my dog Parsley! She kept me updated and assured me Parsley was doing well and was comfortable so I didn't have to worry! I would definitely recommend her if you need someone to watch your pup.”
“My fur babies had a wonderful stay with Taylor. She is so kind, even my sensitive pup, June warmed up to her instantly! Taylor was very flexible when our pickup /drop off times shifted and checked in during the visit to let me know the puppies we doing good. Highly recommend Taylor for anyone looking to have a pet sitter they can trust. Thank you so much Taylor! We will book again with you soon! ☺️”
“Jessica and her family took the upmost care for our dogs while on vacation. One of our dogs is typically a little nervous and she went out of her way to calm her and make her feel welcome. She sent pictures daily showing how the dogs were doing and could not have gone better. Thanks”
“Great experience from start to finish! We have a 16 week old puppy ... Stephanie was great with him! Communication was perfect, Stephanie shared photos, and our pup was thrilled to have some playmates for the weekend!”
“We trust Brittany with our dog and he was in an amazing mood when we picked him up! Plenty of room for him to run around and he loves playing with the kids and other dogs. Never had an issue with our dog here.”
“What a great experience for me and my dog. I booked Abigail and would do it again. She was very responsive to messages and tons of pictures and updates. My dog had a great time.”
“They took care of my dog for a week and I definitely recommend them they are good people. They made my dog feel at home and made me feel at ease knowing she was in good hands.”
“Daisy seemed to have a great time with Mackenzie! Very well at communicating and sending photos! When I picked her up she was bathed and even had a bandana on her! Mackenzie took very well of my doggie. Will book with her again!”
“Joseph took care of Luna for a little over 2 weeks, and we couldn’t be more pleased. We got the perfect amount of updates and pictures/videos. We’ve left Luna in Jospeh’s care several times at this point, and have no plans of stopping in the future.”
“Catherine was amazing! This was our first time leaving Dixie with a sitter so of course I was worried about our gIrl. Catherine was great she eased those fears and welcomed Dixie right in! We received many pictures throughout the week showing her having so much fun! We would definitely use and recommend Catherine do all dog parents!!”

“Amanda was great. Socialized with our cats each day, in addition to feeding and cleaning up after them. Sent us pictures and videos everyday with an update on how the cats were behaving.”
“Thank you so much Tiffany!! Sorry my cats are scaredy cats, but I'll work on that for future visits. Tiffany does great job looking after my kitties. Loved the pictures.”
“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!”
“Jenna was absolutely incredible! Super friendly, sent lots of photos, always made sure their food was full and their litter was clean. Gave constant updates which was deep appreciated as someone who is an anxious cat mom!”
“Ashley was great! This was my first time to use Rover and I am so pleased with the service. Ashley was so good with communication, thorough and complete service, friendly, and good pictures of my cat, Luna! I would definitely recommend her for your pet care and visits.”
“Katie did a great job with our two cats. She was on time, provided outstanding care & feeding, & gave us daily pictures of them. We couldn’t be happier. Definitely recommend her for drop-in care of pets.”
“I have a somewhat unique situation with my cats and I was going to be gone for about 12 days—longer than I’ve ever been away from my boys. I was able to completely trust Connie to take care of them while I was gone, and I will booking her in advance going forward whenever possible! Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Great having Saige as my first sitter! We met at a Starbucks to do a meet and greet and I instantly felt comfortable. Scary bringing a stranger into your home these days, so I was thankful she was open to answering any questions and wanted me to feel comfortable. Days later, I then had Saige come to my home to meet my cat and see the space to ensure she would also be comfortable sitting at my home. She petsitted or pet sat(?) lol, for 4 days and there’s hardly a hint that she was ever here - meaning she left the place as she found it and didn’t leave a mess or anything. I don’t think my kitty ever got super used to having a stranger in her home but that’s not Saige’s fault. My kitty is just super shy and takes a while to warm up to strangers. I just asked that Saige respect her boundaries and space and I believe she did that! My kitty is almost 16 years old and I just really wanted that reassurance of having someone around more often than just bopping in for 15 mins a day - so I’m thankful for finding this service and the sitting going smoothly! Would book Saige again!”
“Kristen was wonderful with my indoor kitty and the two outdoor stray kitties I have been taking care of. All three cats took to Kristen immediately and loved her! Kristen sent me all kinds of pictures and updates also. I couldn't recommend her more. We will 100% book with with Kristen in the future!”
“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!!!”
“Shelby is amazing and went above and beyond for our old kitty! She made extra time to make sure she got her meds even when our cat was putting up a protest and took the time to play and hang with her. She even watered our plants without us asking! Highly recommend and will definitely ask Shelby to sit again!”
“Jessica was great! She was very respectful of my home and made sure Spot got the kind of food she wanted. She brings a lot of experience and knowledge when she comes to take care of your pet!”
“Meggie is the best cat sitter I have ever had and I’ve had several! She goes above and beyond and most importantly she is incredibly affectionate to my shy cat Dexter!!! I can’t recommend her enough!!!”
“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!”
“Arabella was super responsive and communicative while checking on my kitties. She sent lots of videos and pictures that helped ease my traveling anxiety and let me know they were in good hands. Would absolutely recommend her services to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“Olivia gives us great peace of mind when we travel. She's utterly reliable, arriving on time and sending pictures every day. Our shy cat warmed right up to her and was happy and healthy when we got home. Olivia is a natural animal person.”
“Maggie did a great job caring for our senior kitty, Jade! She sent daily updates and photos and even arranged her schedule to be there during the fireworks to keep Jade calm and distracted while they were going off. She also picked up our mail for us and the place was clean and tidy when we arrived home. Would highly recommend!”
“Rebekah has checked on my boys before and I was thrilled to book her again last minute when travel plans changed. She is amazing and sends great pics and detailed reports. Would definitely book again!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet. I know that trusting someone with your furry family member is a big decision, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to following your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. This is my only job at the moment so I am very flexible. Soon, though I may do some substitute teaching but that is a nice job too because it’s also very flexible. I care for every pet according to their individual routine and needs. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, and I’ll follow any specific instructions you provide, including medications, feeding schedules, or other special care.

“Gail was very personable and knowledgeable about animal behavior. She handled my dogs with great care and they felt very comfortable with her. I would not hesitate to utilize her services again.”
“Christine was kind to care for my pup, Phoebe, on short notice when my regular sitter couldn’t come last minute. She and her kiddos kept Phoebe safe and comfortable!”
“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!”
“Sarah was amazing. This was our first time with a Rover and Lexi felt comfortable and apparently did well. I appreciate Sarah being patient with Lexi as she navigates our new schedule and doggy daycare.”
“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. 😄”

About: I’ve had dogs from a young age. Staying with me, they will get attention, love, play time and cuddles. They will also get to play with my dog Lexi.

I just ask for a notice as soon as possible so that I can be available for you. I love animals I love dogs and cats. I am currently going to school which is all online this makes my schedule open. I have baby gates around my house so that if my dogs start becoming very mean towards the cats, the cats have a place to run. I always make sure to stay calm with the dogs in any situation. I personally turn music on and it's mainly calm sleepy music like Enya or sleep jazz music on YouTube.

About: Pets have been a part of my life my whole life. I've owned everything from dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and ferrets. In high school I spent all my extra time volunteering at Kansas City Ferret Rescue. We even ran some of the shelter out of our house for a while. Currently I own 2 pit bulls and boy do I love my bully breeds. I have Marvel who is 11 and hes my gentle giant. We adopted his mother and had her her whole life and kept him from a litter of puppies she had. We've been together since birth. I also have Alice and she is getting ready to turn 5, we adopted her at 8 weeks old from a neighbor. She's super energetic. I have LOTS of training in taking care of puppies. I also own a 13 year old black Maine coon cat. I adopted him from wayside waifs when he was a tiny 8 week old kitten. My pets are very loved and yours will be also!

About: Hi!! My name is Alyssa, and I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter in the Kansas City area! I have experience working with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and any specific needs your pet may have. I also have hands-on experience caring for my diabetic cat, including administering insulin injections and monitoring routines. Because of this, I’m comfortable supporting pets with medical needs and understand the importance of consistency, timing, and gentle handling. Outside of pet sitting, I work in the counseling field supporting children and families, which has strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to stay calm in all situations, these skills I bring into caring for your pets as well. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and secure while you’re away and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I am getting my master’s, so I have some evening classes, but I am still able to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting during weekdays and weekends. Because of my schedule, I’m able to prioritize your pet’s routine, including feeding times, walks, play, and any medical needs like medications or insulin injections. I do my best to be reliable, on-time, and responsive to messages. I prioritize safety, structure, and a calm environment for every pet I care for. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any specific instructions you provide. I have experience administering medications, including insulin injections, and understand the importance of consistency and careful monitoring. In your home, I am respectful of your space and ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, especially for anxious or shy pets, and adjust my approach to meet their needs. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress environment where your pet feels cared for and you feel confident they’re in good hands.
“I have been so pleased with Kodiak walking my dog on a regular basis. I get great feedback and pictures of of Barbie out on her walk. It’s been a relief to find someone so responsible and caring. I would not hesitate to recommend Kodiak to anyone who needs a trusted dog walker or sitter!”
About: I've been around animals my whole life and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm patient, dependable, and pay close attention to the little details that matter, from following feeding schedules and exercise routines to keeping water bowls full and giving plenty of affection. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, energetic dogs, shy cats, and multi-pet households. My goal is simple: treat every pet like they're my own and give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, reliable hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be reliable and consistent for pet care. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or spending quality time with your pet, I'm happy to work around their routine. I love being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, not just a job. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions before each visit. Whether I'm in your home or taking your dog for a walk, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I'll make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime while also respecting the routines they're used to. I keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I always treat both your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. My goal is for your pets to feel comfortable, happy, and loved until you return.
About: I have three years of consistent dog-walking experience with the same family and their two dachshunds, visiting three times a week (1 hour walking) without missing a scheduled walk. That long-term commitment taught me the importance of reliability, routine, and building trust with both pets and their owners. I have also provided dog-sitting care for several families, often for about one month at a time, and have cared for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I take time to understand each pet’s normal routine, energy level, preferences, and communication style so they can feel safe and comfortable in my care. In addition to dogs, I am comfortable caring for cats and have many years of experience around horses through riding and handling. This has helped me become patient, observant, calm, and attentive to changes in an animal’s behavior. I genuinely enjoy building a bond through dependable care, play, companionship, and respect for each pet’s individual needs. I currently have a flexible weekday schedule and am usually available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. I have plenty of time to give each pet calm, unhurried attention and am happy to follow their usual routine for walks, meals, playtime, rest, and companionship. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own routine. I take time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, personality, favorite activities, boundaries, and any special instructions from their owner. Whether I am caring for a dog or a cat, I keep doors and gates secure, handle leashes and carriers carefully, and pay attention to their behavior and comfort level. I also respect the owner’s home, keep pet areas clean, and leave everything as I found it. I am happy to send photos and updates during each visit, so you can relax knowing your pet is being cared for with patience, attention, and kindness.
About: Since a child, I grew up with 4 dogs. My life has always had dogs around. We also owned horses, goats, chickens and more, so animals are my favorite. I watch after my friends, parents and family's dogs. I'm okay with giving meals/ medication as request; cheese and turkey wrapped pills are the way 😉. I'm a work from home environment. I'm around my dogs 80% of my day. They are taken on regular bathroom breaks and play breaks. To help release energy, long walks are also taken. If I need to head out, they are crated until I return to avoid any incidents. We have a fence yard and my parents two other dogs spend time together. As well with weekly walks with my 2 other nieces/dogs. They are kept on leashes when on walks. They are also given lots of treats :)
