House Sitting in Accent, Des Moines, IA

“Victoria was amazing. All the boys seemed to have a great time with her while we were gone. She went above and beyond to make us comfortable leaving. She also left a few extra touches around the house that showed just how well she cared for our home as well.”

“Allison stayed with our 3 Golden Retrievers (two puppies & a 13yr old) for 5 nights. She was so great with the dogs and we really appreciated the communication with us while we were away. The care she provided our pups while taking care of the house as well was so appreciated (bringing in mail/packages, having house clean when we got home, ect). We will definitely use Allison again!”

Melissa C.

“We really liked Keli, but more importantly, our dogs really liked Kelli! She was sweet and attentive and made them feel at ease. It was almost like we weren’t even gone.”

Mindy H.

“Daniel sat for our pups for the 2nd time last night. They were so happy to see him again! He is the best! I know they are in good hands with Daniel! :)”

Shari D.

“Our pets loved Ashlee and I felt confident leaving them with her. She sent me regular updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. We will definitely book her again!”

Alison K.

“Thank you for taking such great care of our furry family members while we were away. And thank you again for extending the stay last minute. We really appreciate your care and professionalism.”

“I appreciated Nadine sending me updates and pics of my dogs. One of my dogs is very skittish and scared, I know that couldn’t have been easy. But I know he was still well taken care of! I would book her again!”

“Great job by Yasmin. Cyrus the dog got to run in the yard and play tug, and Frank the cat was safely fed in the privacy of his bedroom. Well done and we appreciate Yasmin's pet care.”

“I wish I could give Megan more than 5 stars! Megan was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Benji! She came to our home to watch him, & I could tell right away she genuinely cared about making him comfortable and happy. She was punctual, kind, and so easy to communicate with. While we were out, she kept us updated with messages and adorable photos, which gave us total peace of mind. Megan treated him like her own, which made us feel so at ease! When we got home, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly had a great day. It’s rare to find someone so reliable, caring, and trustworthy, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend Megan to anyone who wants their pets cared for like family!”

Brett & Jessica C.

“We were apprehensive leaving Joey with someone we didn’t know due to some special needs but felt at ease when connecting with Dawn during our meet and greet. Dawn was great and Joey was well cared for. She provided us with updates and we didn’t worry about him one bit. We’ll definitely ask Dawn to care for Joey again!! Thank you Dawn!!”

“Cory was awesome. I will definitely book with him again. He was on time and kept in contact with me throughout the house sitting process. I had a bad experience with Rover before and he has certainly renewed my faith about the program. Thanks again Cory!!”

“Abby was wonderful and very communicative. She made sure to send lots of pictures and some videos which brought me so much joy! Abby took great care of all 6 of our babies, you won't be disappointed with her service!”

Vannah G.

“Emily was amazing with our two pets! We got lots of updates and photos and came home to two very happy and relaxed animals after a week away. We've already got Emily booked to come back!”

Katie P.

“This was my first time with Molly watching the boys. She was awesome! She sent so many pictures and videos which was great, I could tell that they were comfortable with her. She even let them sleep with her and hog the bed! I had several issues with my flights and she was more than willing to be on standby if I didn’t make it home on time. I’ll definitely use Molly again in the future 🌟”

About: I grew up always having cats and being a total cat lady, however after bringing home my first dog ever I realized how much I absolutely love and adore dogs! I have experience with having a dog of my own (sadly he went on to the rainbow bridge), plus caring for my sisters dog who I jokingly say is my part time dog. I also have experience with all the dogs I’ve gotten to meet through Rover. I would love to have a dog of my own again but I don’t have the proper time or space to have one right now, so I’m looking to get my fix by spending time with your dog! I’m currently available any time of day on weekends and anytime after 4:15pm during the week to care for your fur babies since I work until 4pm during the week. Im very attentive to your pets needs and making sure they are comfortable this includes lots of outdoor time with nice walks, and giving them lots of love and attention(not to mention treats!). :) I work until 4pm during the week, and I’m off on weekends. So I’m available anytime on weekends, and anytime after 4:15pm during the week to care for your fur babies! I live in an apartment with 2 cats so any pets that stay with me need to be familiar and friendly with cats. I do have a spare bedroom that I can use for separation purposes however prefer to be familiar and good around cats if I will be watching in my home. If house sitting I will be available to stay after work and will send lots of pictures and updates along the way.

About: I live and work downtown (full-time remote). I can host your pet overnight in my home; stay overnight in your home if needed. Pop-in visits to provide breaks, walks, feeding if you live within a reasonable distance. I can also provide day care services if needed. I do not have a crate but bringing your own crate is optional but not required. House broken/trained is preferred. I prefer to host 1 dog at a time. 2 dogs from the same household would be possible but prefer not to mix dogs from multiple households. ***House-sitting notice - I do have an 11lb Havanese puppy that would accompany me for overnight house-sitting assignments. He's house-trained and does not shed and very friendly with other dogs.*** I usually reply to requests within 10-20 min. If it's after 11 then the next morning. I work remote full-time Mon to Fri 8-5. Can do pop-in visits, walks and feeding as needed or on a set schedule that works best for your pet's current routine. Condo here and unfortunately do not have a yard but there are lots of green spaces near my condo at 10th and Mulberry. Space is over 1200 sq ft so plenty of room for your pet. I do have an 11 lb Havanese puppy that loves attention but is very smart and picks up on queues from other dogs. Shy and timid upon introduction and will play only if the other dog engages. Loves people and attention.

“Highly recommend!! Andrea has stayed are our house two times for long weekends and watched our 14 year old Pitbull who can't go to dog parks or really be around other dogs. She gave him his medication which is about 8 pills and tried different things to get him to eat. She stayed in constant contact with me and left our house spotless. We already scheduled her for another weekend in August.”

“Gabby was exceptional! Jojo and I are sad she’s moving away, we’d love to have her back. ❤️”

“Travis was exceptionally quick to respond and very attentive to my three dogs. Two of my dogs can be hyper and he never once seemed put off by their behaviors. I got photo updates from him without having to ask and he was on time to get to my house before we left out of state. If we needed a sitter again, we’d definitely book with Travis.”

About: I am available 7 days a week. I can come to your home or your dog can stay with me as long as its 25 lbs or under; senior dogs okay. I'm retired so I'm available 7 days a week, no job too small, you can call me when or if you have a last minute cancelation. I live in a townhome community so your dog should be able to walk on a leash if staying at my home. (No fenced in area)
