“Had such a great experience with Shelly and her husband watching my 2 dogs while I was out for 2 weeks. They are very welcoming and friendly. I could tell my two were very well taken care of and had a great time playing while there. Highly recommend!”

“Elizabeth and Chris were great! We left our 7 month old puppy for the first time for a family trip and she had a blast. Pictures from Elizabeth showed how much fun our pup had doggy ‘summer camp’”

“She was very polite and she kept me informed daily about Jazzy. When I picked Jazzy up she looked very well taken care of . Yes I would recommend her to any one who needs to board ther furry friend.”

“Jill and her family were fantastic watching our pup for the weekend. She provided frequent updates with pictures and quick responses. Jill has two dogs of her own that are wonderful and great with other dogs. I knew our dog Maggie was safe and very happy for the weekend.”

“as all pet parents I’m sure, I’m super protective of my fur baby. Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of Lucy and keeping me updated during my travels. Will certainly be having Lucy stay with Sarah again”

About: My job is to help your dog(s) be most comfortable while you're away. Be it through daily exercise, romps through the dog or neighborhood park, constant rub downs and playing chase, your pup(s) won't even have a moment to realize you're gone, but they'll still be thrilled to see you when you get home. I've been dog sitting for over 20 years and have experience with various types of dogs, dog personalities, and health conditions. Contact me to watch your pooch(es) and you won't regret it! I love dogs and walk my dog regularly. My dog loves being around other dogs but we’re a single dog house for our full-time lives. I’d love my dog to get some extra friend time while I get to love on other pups. I have a fenced yard, the perfect raised deck for puppy tv, yard leashes (if needed), a crate (if needed), several bedroom options if your pup needs a quiet place to rest, and sooo many dog beds! I do use furniture protectors to keep my couches clean for the humans but it allows the dogs to live among us on our elevated perches.
“Danielle and her family always take the very best care of Frankie! He literally gets excited and can’t wait to see them when we pull up to their home for drop off. Frankie feels at home when he is there, which gives us great peace of mind!”

“She did a great job! Daily pictures and updates on our Minnie and Ernie! They were very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend sending your dogs to her. She responds fast to any questions you have.. she's flexible if your schedule changes.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up on a farm where caring for them was just part of everyday life. From early mornings feeding animals to learning how to read their personalities and needs, I developed a lifelong comfort and love for all kinds of pets. About 10 years ago, I found my soul dog as a stray, and bringing her into my life only deepened my understanding of patience, trust-building, and the unique bond we share with our animals. These days, I’m often the go-to friend for dog sitting when people head out of town, whether that means overnight care, walks, playtime, or just making sure pups stick to their normal routine while their humans are away. I genuinely love dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities, there truly isn’t a dog I don’t want to pet (with permission, of course). I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I aim to make both you and your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and at ease. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I work from home alongside my senior dachshund, who keeps me on a pretty strict (and often demanding) schedule. I’m used to building my day around walks, feedings, and the occasional demand for attention. Because of that flexibility, I’m able to adjust my schedule easily and can often be available on short notice when needed. Whether it’s a planned trip or a last-minute change, I’m used to stepping in and making sure pets stay comfortable and cared for without disrupting their routine. I tailor my care based on each pet and the service needed, because every dog has their own routine, personality, and comfort level. In a client’s home, I do my best to keep things as familiar as possible, sticking to their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and downtime. I’m mindful of their space and habits, and I make sure they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my home, they’ll be in a calm, comfortable environment with plenty of attention throughout the day. Since I work from home, I’m around to keep a close eye on them, give them regular potty breaks, and make sure they’re not left alone for long periods. I also have a fully fenced backyard with a privacy fence, so dogs can safely get fresh air and exercise. I also have a senior dachshund who is deeply committed to a lifestyle of sleep, food, and belly rubs. She’ll most likely acknowledge your dog’s existence once and then return to her regularly scheduled lounging, so it’s a good fit for pups who don’t need or want constant interaction with another dog. Whether it’s high-energy playtime, slow walks with a senior dog, or just hanging out with a more low-key pup, I adjust my approach to what they need. My goal is always the same: keep them happy, safe, and as stress-free as possible.
About: Hey there, I’m Mattie. I work for a great nonprofit here in KC & tend to need supplemental income. I have had pets, been around pets, & done pet sitting almost my entire life. I hope my references from previous dog sitting stints display that I am a reliable & outstanding caregiver. I’d love to hang out with your four legged friends whenever you need me and will send lots of updates & pictures your way so you know your pet is in good hands. For Boarding interest: I live in a home with a fenced yard and I work from home on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. If I am watching your pet during the week, my partner who I live with will let them out for potty breaks on the days I am in office. For House Sitting interest: I’ll be sure to be respectful of your home when I visit. If you need your plants watered or errands ran while you are away, I am happy to help out. Please don’t hesitate to reach out 🐶 I am in office on Wednesdays and Thursdays, but otherwise I work remotely and will have lots of time to spend with your pet. Our street is great for going on walks and I usually like to go for a walk or two during the day. I am comfortable and experienced with staying in my clients’ homes. You can have peace of mind when you book with me, I promise to leave your space like I found it. Boarding is new to me. I recently moved into a home that used to be home to a senior dog as well but sadly she passed earlier this year…me and my partner look forward to trying out boarding since she passed.
“This was our dog’s first time staying with Grace, and she was awesome! Communicative, friendly & punctual! We hope to book another stay with her in the future!”

“Dominic and his team at home took great care of Maddie. She came home worn out from all the playing with the other dogs. They have a great yard for outdoor playtime and plenty of beds all around (and a lap or two).”

“Cynthia did an amazing job dog sitting our Hank. She communicated well and sent us pictures throughout our trip away. I highly recommend her dog sitting services.”

“Duane and family were great! I could tell at our meet and greet that they truly love dogs and would take very good care of my dog. They were flexible with me, very responsive in communication, and sent me photos. My dog was happy to return to their home after the meet and greet, which was great to see. They are a wonderful family.”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and have professional experience in walking as well so I know how to care for each pet's unique needs. Pet care is a top priority and my full-time job. I'm available full-time with a very flexible schedule including weekdays, weekends, mornings, afternoons, and overnight stays. I can do last minute appointments as well. Services include walking, feeding, establishing routines, playing, exercise, companionship, medicine administration (if needed), cleaning up, owner updates, full age range care from puppy to senior, and special attention to owner's wishes.
“Amber was great! I had a lot of anxiety about leaving my dog for so long, but Amber did a great job of addressing my specific concerns. She sent one update every day with pictures but was fast to respond if I had specific questions about how things were going. I have a very shy, low-energy boy, but he fit right in with Amber and her older dogs! She had a great backyard for the dogs to sniff and play in, and I highly recommend her, especially if someone has a shy or anxious dog. She was great!”

About: I am a responsible professional who is looking to make some extra money outside of my full-time job in tech. I love dogs and many other types of animals and have 2 dogs, Severus and Hagrid, whom I live with at home. My availability is relatively flexible, and I can work from home during the week. During the week I am available to stay overnight at your house and may be able to stop by in the middle of a weekday, depending on your location. During your absence I am also willing to take in your mail or water your plants. While I am available on weekends, I will need advanced notice to ensure that I am able to accommodate your request. My skills include experience training a puppy and caring for animals other than dogs. I have been pet/house sitting for families since I was eight, taking care of various types of animals such as dogs, reptiles, cats, and fish. I work full time M-F but have the flexibility to work remotely if I choose to do so. I am available evenings and weekends, as well as during the workday to let out dogs for bathroom breaks. I offer in-home boarding in my home for dogs, house sitting in the owner’s home (available to stay overnight in the home) for both dogs and cats, and drop-in visits.
About: I groom dogs as well as have an existing client base with pet sitting/dog walking. I also used to be a rabbit breeder and have general experience with many animals. I originally worked in a dog daycare/hotel and shifted to grooming after moving to PA My work/school schedule isn't consistent. But generally I'm awake between the hours of 5am-11pm with wake up times and sleep times varying around those marks. Whatever schedule your pup needs I'm able to accommodate. I have an extremely friendly and passive Corgi named Fiona and a friendly and playful Pomeranian named Victoria. I have have 2 cats but they are able to be separated if it's an issue for your friend.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westwood
oh, the way that we feel like we struck unicorn pet sitter gold with courtney and sara! gus’s second stay went swimmingly. know how i know? he stopped and looked back at the house and we had to convince him into the car when we picked him up! 😆 and i swear he loves us! seriously tho. it’s so clear that he’s very loved while we are away. also so grateful for the pictures and updates. highest recommend!

Kit seemed to have a great time with Jessica and her adorable Pomeranians and the Kitty. When we got home, she slept most of the day because she was so tuckered out from all of the fun. Jessica provided daily updates and pictures, which helps put my mind at ease. You are in great hands with Jessica…in fact, I just rebooked her for my next trip.

Jessica took amazing care of my dog Cooper. I felt completely at ease whilst I was traveling abroad knowing that she was staying in my home and taking care of him. She kept me updated and went above and beyond to make it positive and perfect for me. I will definitely be booking with Jessica again.
