“What a fantastic experience! Marissa looked over my two cats during our extended honeymoon stay. Marissa was so easy to work with and allowed us to add four additional days onto our honeymoon thanks to her flexibility and professionalism. I truly cannot give a high enough rating for the experience and piece of mind she provided.”

“This was our first time booking drop in visits through Rover and we are so glad we found Meg! She was very friendly and patient with our skittish senior cat. Meg was very communicative throughout the whole process which gave us peace of mind on our trip. Will book Meg again in the future!”


“Ron took great care of our dogs over a five day period during a busy holiday season. His drop-in visits occurred in the schedule we had requested, and he managed the daily walks we had asked for in addition to the regular feeding, watering, and backyard visits. With all the real-time notices of his visits, and we were able to relax and enjoy our trip. Great experience!”

“Sarah is the best! Always takes excellent care of my puppy and is so amazing about communicating!! We’re always happy when she can stop by and play for awhile. :)”

“Mallory was our savior! On a trip out of town, our automatic chicken door stopped working in the mornings, and she was able to start right away to let our girls out, even with all of the snow. She was quick to respond and always arrived on time.”

“Reagan was great with my kitty Bowie! She was very patient and helpful while I wasn’t home allowing me to enjoy my vacation. I will definitely request her again.”

“Becky was a lifesaver with a last minute request! This was our first experience using Rover and we feel so lucky to have found Becky. We enjoyed the updates during her visits and returned home to 2 very well cared for doggos. She even brought in our mail! ?”

“Marlee was great with my Bengie boy! This was my first time using this service and Marlee. She was friendly and professional, easy to communicate with and was great with Bengie. She left great notes each day. She will be my go to kitty sitter!”

About: Dog and cat lover preset! 🙌 I love getting to come around and make your animal happy. It’s absolutely fun for me to bring joy to your dog & cat family. I have worked at Pet Resource Center of Kansas City for the last 8 years and have a wide array of animal veterinary knowledge. I’m currently unemployed and searching for my next career. My schedule is very open and flexible. I have 1 dog of my own that I care for but my flexibility allows me to help many more people and pets. I have 1 dog that doesn’t like other animals in her space so I would primarily have to come to your house where your dog would be. I have the flexibility to stay overnight though so that’s not a problem.
“This was our first time using Rover and Dalton really helped us feel comfortable with the process. He was really great with our dog and gave him the attention and exercise he needed.”

“Megan was so wonderful with our two dogs. She was timely, a great communicator, and I loved getting the pictures from her drop-ins while we were away. I would 100% book her again to care for our dogs.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs at every stage of life, from newborn puppies to senior dogs requiring extra care. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions when needed. I also have experience working with dogs that have behavioral challenges such as separation anxiety, resource guarding, and reactivity. While I’m not a certified trainer, I’m very familiar with canine body language and believe strongly in calm, consistent handling. I’ve helped puppies learn leash walking, basic obedience commands (sit, stay, down, etc.), and have supported owners during early potty-training stages. For boarding, I do require that dogs are already potty trained so they can comfortably integrate into the household routine. Exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis for an additional cost. My goal is always to create a calm, safe environment where each dog feels comfortable and well cared for. I work from home full-time, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, and boarding. Dogs staying in my home receive regular potty breaks, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. Because my schedule is flexible, I can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits and will adapt to your dog’s routine so their schedule stays as consistent as possible. I prioritize a calm, safe environment for every dog in my care. I intentionally board dogs from only one household so each dog receives individual attention and a lower-stress environment compared to high-volume boarding homes. I have my own friendly dog, and I always ensure dogs are a good temperament match before confirming a stay. Meet-and-greets are encouraged so both dogs can become comfortable before the booking. I carefully follow each dog’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any medications or special instructions provided by the owner. Safety and consistency are always my top priorities.
“Georgia did absolutely wonderful taking care of my fur babies. I will have Georgia watch them again. She made them feel very secure and happy. Thank you so much Georgia for making them feel love while I was away!!!”

“Our pets loved having Katy watch after them while we were out of town. We have two senior cats who both need medication/insulin twice daily, and as Katy has two senior cats and two senior dogs of her own, she is very skilled at administering medications if your pet has that need. Our cat Birdy suddenly took ill while we were out of town, and Katy was very prompt with letting us know what was happening and took Birdy to the vet when she needed professional intervention. We are grateful to Katy for her kindness and helpfulness and love for the animals in her care.”

“Michelle was an amazing sitter. She cared for our cat while we were gone for the holidays and knowing he was in good hands made our trip much more enjoyable. She was very attentive and provided us updates. We would highly recommend her.”

Ward Parkway Plaza pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily was very responsive in the process leading up to her time caring for our dogs. She took great care of them and provided a timely update on how they were doing including pictures of their happy faces! We will definitely be using her services again in the future!
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!

Crissy went above and beyond to take care of my 3 pets. I had a family emergency while I was traveling, so they extended the checkins. When we had a blizzard, they took my dog Sadie to their house and cared for her until the storm cleared. It means a lot to me that they took care of things so I could attend to my family in Pennsylvania. Thank you!

Georgia did a meet and greet with us and our doggos before booking. She was kind and patient and asked pertinent questions. I felt safe and that our dogs were in very capable and caring hands with Georgia. The Rover app is so easy to use and the process was smooth.
