Jodi, Thank you so much for staying with our dogs for a whole week. There are so many things that I'm impressed with. Daily updates, taking care of Justice's ear infection, vacuuming daily and all the other things that happened in between... We will definitely be using you every single time we travel.

Raelee was incredible with Ollie. Early the first day he was cuddled up next to her and he normally doesn't like other people in his house. I got lots of pictures that showed how happy he was. When we got back, you couldn't even tell someone else had been here. I will definitely use her again!

About: I’ve also had guinea pigs and rabbits and birds and goats. I love all animals and am happy to care for them no matter what shape or size. They all deserve love and attention and as long as I have solid instructions then I got it covered and they’ll feel like they’re my own babies. I’m currently unemployed. I’m getting certified to sell insurance and am home. I have two children in pre school and elementary school and the extra money would help a lot in this transitional period. I can happily come to your home and give your animals all the love they need. I’m in an apartment so coming to my home isn’t available currently but I can do check-ins or extended stays at your home depending on what you need.

Evelyn did a great job with Stella, who recently went through tail surgery and had some extra needs. She sent photos, cared for Stella well, and left the house in great condition after her stay.

Draven was fantastic. There was work being done outside the house that couldn’t be rescheduled and she was ok with taking the dog out front for a bit instead. She even kept me updated when there was a power outage after a storm ❤️

Freddy was so happy with Abby. While we were away Abby sent pictures of Freddy and we was definitely enjoying his time with Abby. We will be requesting Abby with our next need for Freddy to have a friend stay with him.

About: I currently work from home but I am the the process of making a career change and will eventually be working out of the house. I have a German shepherd that loves everyone! He does well woth small dogs, big dogs, aggressive dogs, and shy dogs. I do have cats but they are outside, they have claimed the frontyard and porch and stay out of the backyard. I have been watching animals on Rover since 2020 and I was a horse trainer/ranch hand before that. If you have any questions feel free to ask! I currently work from home so I let the dogs out many times throughout the day. When I do make a career switch I have a babygate to seperate the house to make sure there are no incidents while im out and then before and after work they will get plenty of exercise. I tend to spoil animals. I love playing with them and giving them scratches. My animals are allowed on the furniture so when we aren't playing there is a lot of cuddle time.

We absolutely LOVED Lucas! Even Bobby Cat loved him and and Bobby doesn’t like anybody! This was the first time we have ever left our boys with a stranger. We did a meet and greet with Lucas several days before we left and our beasties all went crazy over him. I trust their instincts over anything. Lucas sent us pictures and messages daily. I felt comfortable and confident that the boys were in good hands, and able to relax and enjoy myself. The entire experience was great! Lucas will be our “go-to guy” for future travel!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. My family frequently took in rescue pitbulls, so from a young age I learned how to train even the most stubborn animals. I began pet sitting for family/friends as a teenager. Many of the animals I took care of during this time were seniors, so I got quite a bit of experience in senior dog care. During college, I brought home a very energetic and very stubborn Cane Corso. I hired a professional trainer and learned many important tips on top of my already existing knowledge about dog training, which came in handy when I got a second corso. Throughout my life I’ve gained experience training puppies, taking care of senior pets, and caring for pets with diabetes and other chronic conditions. I’m currently PRN at my other job, so I can work my other job completely around the needs of your pet and what they’ll need while in my care. I have a fenced in yard and two bigger pups that are incredibly friendly and love having new dogs to play with. I also have a two year old daughter who is obsessed with animals, so needless to say your pet will not be spared any attention while in our home. Even if you’re not looking to board your pup, I have full availability to take care of your pet in the comfort of their own environment, and am willing to stop by as often as needed to make sure your pup gets all the care and attention needed while you’re away.

About: I treat every dog like family—not just a job. I learn their quirks, their favorite toys, and what makes their tail wag. I build trust with both dogs and their humans, creating a calm, loving environment that feels like home. I will ALWAYS send updated pictures a videos! Even with a full-time job, pet care is a priority I plan around, not squeeze in. I only accept clients I can fully commit to—meaning your pet gets the time, energy, and attention they deserve. I offer early morning, evening, and weekend care, and I’m highly organized to keep everything running smoothly. Pet care isn’t a side hustle for me—it’s a passion I build into my daily life. When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and structure. I stick closely to their home routines—feeding, walks, medications, and bedtime habits—so they feel secure and comfortable. I make sure they get mental stimulation, physical activity, and lots of love throughout the day. In-home care means your pet stays in their familiar space, which helps reduce stress. I keep everything consistent with your instructions—from feeding and potty breaks to walks, play, and downtime. I respect your home like it’s my own and always send updates, photos, and quick check-ins to keep you at ease while you’re away.

About: I love all animals. I’ve primarily had rescue cats & dogs and wish I could save them all. I’ve bottle fed abandoned kittens and rescued pregnant cats. I have experience with an abandoned, abused and anxious dog who needed patience and compassion on a daily basis. I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs from tiny chihuahua’s to large labradors & Dobermans. Each one with a personality all their own. I’m retired and I’m looking for a meaningful way to fill my days. I’m available most of the time, although I do love traveling when I can. I will follow every instruction you have in order to provide exceptional care for your pet in your home. My Rover reputation is based on you & your pets happiness!

About: I have two fur babies of my own so I relate to the stress of finding the perfect sitter. I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and caring for them has become a true passion of mine. Ace is a rescue who taught me the importance of trust and patience. Maple I have raised since she was 3 months old. Through my experience I’ve learned how to help a timid rescue dog feel safe, or keeping an energetic pup happily engaged. From daily walks, training, cuddles, and maintaining a routine I understand every dog has their own personality/needs and I love getting to know what makes each one special! At the moment I am only a part time student, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur baby and/or babies! Rest assured! When caring for a pet in your home my goal is to keep them comfortable, safe and happy! I’ll learn your routines including feeding times, walks, any medications or special instructions. I’ll take time to build trust so your pet will feel relaxed. You can count on regular updates and photos. I love getting to know your dogs personality and what makes them unique. I will treat your babies like family making sure they feel loved while also respecting the space of your home.

About: I have hands on, everyday experience caring for four Golden Retrievers of my own. Managing a multi dog household has given me skills in canine schedule structure, supervision, and understanding of different personalities and energy levels. I also have experience caring for infant puppies, including feeding schedules, potty training foundations, crate introduction, and the patience that can sometimes be needed during those important early development stages. I’m comfortable maintaining routines, reinforcing basic training, and providing both high-energy play and calm, attentive care. Your pet will be treated like part of my family: safe, loved, and well cared for! I work remotely full time, so I am very flexible and am able to meet you and your schedule requests, whether it be for in-home visits, walk outing, or overnight stays. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise routines, and any specific instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also reinforcing any training or household rules you have in place. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

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.
