“Chris and Erin were fantastic with Arya. They sent pictures daily and they definitely treated her like their own. She had a blast and hopes to have more play dates in the future. Thank you so much for caring for our girl♡”


“Jessica was great with our pups. She made sure Chopper got his medicine every day and they had so much fun playing with the other dogs that were there. Jessica was also super friendly and sent pictures and videos regularly”


“Jenevieve was so wonderful to work with! She wanted all the info to make sure was fully prepared to take care of our Phil and super patient with all my questions! I literally could not have asked for a better first Rover experience! Jenevieve did have other bookings that were her regulars, but to make things more comfortable for our pooch, she had us come a little early so he could see that all was good, and he could get familiar before more friends came to play. I got lots of pictures of Phil having lots of fun and getting lots of snuggles. He truly made himself at home and that made us so happy! I appreciate how accommodating and thoughtful Jenevieve was throughout the whole processes and that made our visit to DSM really stress-free because I didn't have to worry about our little buddy at all! Thank you, Jenevieve!!! If we ever come back to Des Moines, you will be the first person we look up!”


“I always book Alice to look after my Frenchie. She is so communicative and loves my dog like her own. I know he is in the best hands whenever I drop him off.”


“They took extra special care of Pause and made sure he felt at home. They even sent him home with an extra doggie bag of treats!! He is tired out from all the fun and will be staying over again in the future!”


“Scott and his wife were great with our mini golden doodle while we were away! I received an update and pictures almost daily which eased our worry! He administered daily medication without issue, and my dog came home very happy! We would definitely recommend Scott and his wife !”


About: I have spent my entire life around animals, especially larger, older dogs. I am home full time while classes are online and am very flexible with sitting times. I am currently taking classes online for the summer, so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends! I tend to be busier on the weekends but if you give enough time in advance I am pretty flexible. I live in an apartment complex, and don't have a yard, so animals will have to be leashed when outside. I do not have a lot of space, so smaller animals are preferred, especially for longer stays.

“Cassandra is amazing! She sent videos and pics of Chief showing how much fun he was having. He played with other dogs, played fetch, played in water, and was tired. She’s the best!!”


“Another great visit with Christy and Ekram. I’ve never left my baby with someone else this long but they sent pictures and updates every day and made a huge effort to make sure she started eating again.”



“Lucia took great loving care of Stella, sent pictures and videos and gave daily updates. Stella is terminally ill and Lucia made us feel at peace leaving her while we attended a family emergency. I highly recommend her.”


“Jaden was responsible and communicative throughout the booking. I really appreciated the timely updates and great pictures—gave me peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend!”


“This was my first time leaving my senior rescue pups with a Rover sitter. Alexandra was patient with my dogs and the time it took them to settle in, get comfortable and bark less. Appreciated her prompt responses and communication. Her setup was great for my dogs and she has a giant fenced in backyard!”


“Elizabeth provided a safe and fun place for our energetic dog to stay and play all week. I think our dog may have been more spoiled than we were on our vacation! I know Elizabeth spent ample time walking, snuggling, and playing fetch. The updates and photos she sent often were comforting and reminded us that our dog was in very god hands. We will definitely be back!”


“Super nice, great communication! Received pictures&/or videos every day. Coco really seemed to enjoy herself and came back happy and freshly bathed! Thank you!”



“Cory was very responsive and had great communication before and during Moose’s stay! When we picked up Moose after his stay he was happy and tired. He even got to meet new friends! Cory was easy going and handled my high energy dog well!”


“Kevin was amazing at working with me when I change her drop off time twice due to flight changes. He sent me pictures and videos and let me know Cookie was warming up to him (as I was worried about that, as she is wary of people she doesn't know). He was also accommodating in letting someone else pick up cookie for me as I wouldn't be able to. Cookie seemed to be her normal self when I returned home and hopefully she was good for Kevin during her stay. I would book with Kevin again as he was very chill and laid back about Cookie.”


“Kaylie took such wonderful care of our new little puppy, who was away from home for the first time. She made us feel confident he was in good hands, so we didn’t have to worry while we were away. Kalie made sure Benny got lots of love, attention, and care. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter!”


“Georgie had the best time staying at Alicia’s house! I really enjoyed the daily photos and seeing Georgie smiling and playing. I felt very comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands with Alicia and her family. Thank you so much for taking such great care of her!! Would highly recommend Alicia.”


“Morgan took amazing care of our senior dog Riley! He was so comfortable with her and she did amazing sharing pictures with us while we were away. Definitely recommend her!”

Beaverdale dog parents share their Rover experiences
Penny and Marvin loved their stay with Elizabeth. It was great knowing they had all their needs met and such excellent dog and human company while we were away. I got several updates each day, which was both fun and reassuring. Elizabeth’s place is a dog’s ideal home away from home.

Kaylie took such wonderful care of our new little puppy, who was away from home for the first time. She made us feel confident he was in good hands, so we didn’t have to worry while we were away. Kalie made sure Benny got lots of love, attention, and care. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter!

I highly recommend Casandra ! This is the first time I have ever left Daisy ( she is 11). When we met for the first time my son and I both felt at ease and that Day would be in good hands. We were right. We received pictures every day !! ( really appreciated that) If we take another vacation. I won’t hesitate to use Casandra again.

Joseph was very accomodating as this was a last minute reservation. My babies seemed to be at ease there, enjoyed the backyard, etc. Joseph sent pics to us as well so we could see how well they were acclimating to his home. Would highly recommend and will definitely reach out to Joseph the next time we are needing care for the pups when we are out of town.

Julia was so great with Monte. She sent a bunch of fun photos and communicated throughout his entire stay. I appreciated how thoughtful she was about the hot summer days and making sure Monte was safe and cool. We feel lucky to have found her as a sitter for Monte and will definitely be in touch for future stays.

Elizabeth was a last minute booking for us after all our usual pet friends weren’t available. We were grateful to find her but even more grateful for how wonderful she was with Brody! We loved her updates and Brody seemed to settle in with her and have a nice time.

We were a little nervous to leave our Stella with someone new, especially someone with dogs. We've always brought her with us or had family watch her. After an initial meet and greet, and a play date at her house, we felt very comfortable leaving Stella with Anna. Initial impressions were great! Anna very clearly has a strong, deep relationship with her dogs, Ren and Shelby. They were both extremely well trained and behaved, which was a direct reflection of how much she cares about them. This structure was exactly what Stella needed in a sitter. She did so well staying two days and an overnight with Anna. Anna kept us informed on how she was doing with pictures, videos, and updates. She got lots of love, play, and cuddles. We wouldn't hesitate to have Anna watch Stella for us again! Thanks Anna!

Our first time to use Rover. Luca’s host, care giver was great! We received daily reports and pictures. Luca upon coming home is enjoyable tired from the activities and walks he was taken on. Would recommend Traci to anyone. Thanks Traci we will keep your Rover info for the future! Again thank you very much.
