Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Beaverdale, Des Moines, IA

“Jeremy was fantastic! He went above and beyond to take care of small housekeeping tasks for our kitties, and he captured photos of our babies having fun and playing despite their shy personalities. He was incredibly understanding and accommodating with communication while my husband and I were busy trying to plan our trip, and Jeremy is clearly a natural with animals and a kind, patient soul! We would hire him again in a heartbeat.”

“Monica was truly the best. We were gonna for two and a half weeks for our wedding and honeymoon & Monica treated our bengal cat like royalty by going above and beyond. She keeps you updated with daily messages, pictures, and responds quickly to any questions and requests. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Kassy has been helping taking care of our animals for years. She has bathed and walked my pitbull. Her help with our foster animals has been invaluable. She has also watched our two cats. We will definitely be booking her through Rover!”

“We added an extra visit on the night we came home - the puppies were all taken care of so we could just settle in and relax with them after a late flight back. Christina did an amazing job the whole week!”

“Andrea has been amazing, our dogs can be a lot and be very hyper. She plays fetch, gives them water and feeds them breakfast. She even takes the time to clean up if our dogs manage to escape out of the kennel and make a mess ( they counter surf). She Leaves a report card every time and sends lots of pics with just the hour she’s at our house. I would recommended Andrea 10/10!”

“Excellent service! I came back home to a happy and energetic dog. I would recommend to anyone interested in quality service for their companion.”

“Jessica was fantastic! She really listened to our concerns beforehand and took everything we said into account. She gave us detailed reviews for each visit and was friendly to both us and our pets. We will absolutely be hiring her for petsitting again!”

“Chelsie was so amazing! I had a medical issue come up and had to change our plans and she was understanding. I also read her report and she comforted Charlie during my absence which made me feel so much better!”

“Brad does a great job for us. He is always prompt and sends us pictures during every visit. Our two 75 lb rowdies were very happy and well cared for. We will definitely continue to use Brad to care for our dogs when we're out of town.”

“Nichole is amazing! She was great at communicating when we were setting everything up and our cat warmed up to her very quickly; they were already cuddling by the second day! We were really able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Nichole was taking care of our boy!”

“Ky has watched my dog several times throughout the years. She recently joined Rover, but I couldn't recommend her enough. She is very kind and attentive towards my dog, and my dog warmed up to her very quickly. She also has great communication and provides updates on how the stay is going. You can tell she loves doing her job.”

“Lisa was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and she made it so easy to work with her. She went above and beyond what I asked her to do and made me feel very comfortable leaving my cat. Will definitely be using her again :)”

“Cory has helped me out a couple times before and I'll continue to use him in the future. He is professional, timely, and communicates very well. Thank you!”

“Javon is always so great with my pups! I am confident they are being cared for and loved while I’m out and there are always wonderful pictures at the end of the day. Highly recommend!”

“Natasha’s experience and love for animals gave me peace of mind when leaving my cat at home while I was out of town. Natasha did a great job and I highly recommend her.”

“Jessica watched our three dogs several times. She was great with communicating throughout the process. One of our dogs is very nervous around new people and Jessica was super patient with her…by the time we came home from our trip they were best friends! I highly recommend Jessica for anyone looking for a super kind and patient pet sitter!”

“We’ve used Sidney for drop-in visits multiple times and she is always reliable, which we really appreciate. We return home from a long day away to find our dog content and comfortable because he’s had a break. We will use her again!”

“James is an outstanding pet parent. When I met James, he had a Labrador retriever named Albert. He had adopted Albert as a puppy. Albert was the best cared for pet ever! Albert just passed here recently at the impressive age of 14. He has also pretty pet sat for my Akita, Cash was a puppy mill rescue. I adopted him at about a year old and he was super under socialized and extremely fearful with strangers. James was wonderfully patient with Cash in giving him both the space and the nudges he needed. Rover would be fortunate to get James as part of your team”

About: Ive been taking care of dogs for neighbors and friends since my early teens. I moved to Iowa 3 years and have loved spending time with other people's pets and showing them love since I moved here! Im comfortable with all ages/sizes of dogs as long as they are not overly aggressive. I work full-time, but my job is hybrid and flexible. I work with a non-profit that has chapters on college campuses in Iowa. I am away from home for a few hours each day Monday-Thursday during scheduled visits with chapter leaders and meetings within the community, but work from home outside of that, so I have a lot of flexibility to work with pet owner's schedule and their needs. I am in graduate school at Drake, but I am fully online, so there are no scheduling conflicts. I occasionally have overnight trips, which I always make note of in my availability calendar. Always feel free to ask if you have any questions. I don't take care of pets in my home, but am happy to at yours. Im ok with pup sitting during the day, or overnights. I can spend a good portion of the day home with your dog, and provide walks and exercise. I am happy to check mail, bring in packages, water plants, and other light chores that need to be done to take care of your home while you are away.

“I trust Morgan with my two children (1 & 7) for any extended period of time. If I had a dog I would only choose one with her help. She has the perfect temperament for both dogs and children. She is also an amazing friend. She is very trustworthy, honest, and caring. Morgan takes care of her sisters’ dogs whenever they need her to, and she is accommodating to each dog’s specific needs. She has experience with both puppies and senior dogs. Morgan would make a great dog walker and sitter for your company.”
