About: I have taken care of animals since I was 9. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets while they were out of town. I have experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities of dogs from gentle greyhounds to energetic border collies! I also have experience petsitting multiple dogs and cats at once. I am a teacher on summer break so I have lots of time and attention to devote to your animals! I am available at any time of the day. I have a fenced in backyard and currently no animals in my house. I live walking distance from a lot of great dog walking spots! I am also available to care for pets in their own home.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I also just graduated with my associates degree in elementary education, and am hoping to spend time with furry friends this summer before returning to my school district! I consider myself very adaptable, and will work with you and your pet to make sure you’re satisfied with my care! Whether your pet needs hours of snuggles or play, I’m happy to be able to spend some time with them! I currently have a very flexible schedule to be able to cater to your pets needs! I enjoy waking up early and getting outside anytime the sun is out! I consider myself adaptable and am able to cater to most of your pets wants or needs. I don’t mind cuddling for hours, or playing and being energetic for hours, whichever your furry friend would prefer!
“Kind and compassionate.l! Took the time to learn about our pups and their schedule and was very positive, friendly, and knowledgeable in our meet and greet. Would book again in a heartbeat! Nothing but a positive experience.”
“Jessica was very easy to work with and attentive to our dogs. She checked in each time, sent us pictures and noted how they are doing. Highly recommend and will use her again!!!”
“This is the second time that Jenna has cared for my fur babies, while I was gone for a few days. Once again, she did a great job and I would highly recommend her!!”
“Dana did and excellent job doing drop in visits for our two cats. We’ve booked her twice for our cats and have been happy both times. Shes punctual, sends pictures/updates, and everything was clean and well taken care of when we came home. We will definitely continue to use her to care for our cats in the future.”
About: I provide attentive and loving care to pets of all sizes, from small lap dogs to active breeds, as well as bunnies, cats and birds. As I work from home, your pet will receive consistent attention throughout the day, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I take time to understand their needs so they feel secure and relaxed. Every pet in my care is treated as if they were my own. With my work from home environment I am able to deal with pets all times during the week. I do travel some weeks, in which I will not take on any pets. I am flexible on schedules. In the spring I will note I coach, and may be gone for 2-3 hours maximum on some nights if there is an overnight pet. This scheduling information will of be provided ahead of time to ensure you know exactly how your pet will be cared for. As I work from home your pet will be watched all day. Whether they choose to join me or relax elsewhere in the house is up to their preference. I do not have a kennel and am okay with pets being able to roam. I also want to break up my day so they will get walks every 2-4 hours if they would like. I also have a fenced yard that I can see from my office if they are wanting to spend more time outside. Personally I’ll probably be outside with them :)
“Andrea took great care of my dog while I was away! She was attentive and responsive and I’m glad I trusted her with my pup. She clearly has a lot of experience with rescues and mine warmed up to her quickly. ❤️”
About: Ever since I was little, I have taken care of both young and senior animals, dogs and cats. I share love all the same no matter the size, age, or breed. I work full time, 9am-5pm on Monday and Tuesday, then 8am-4pm on Wednesday, friday, and Sunday. I am open to leaving work on my break, which can be taken at any time to feed, play, or let your animals outside. I will utilize the environment in which your pets are in to ensure they have the best and safest time possible, whether that's playing in the yard, walking your furry friends, or just lounging inside.
About: Hi! I’ve always loved being around animals. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pup has different needs and will be diligent in ensuring those needs are met. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, and excited for our time together. I’ll always keep you updated so you have peace of mind! I am currently a stay at home mom and have availability throughout the day along with the needed childcare as jobs arise. I am free during the day for walks or check-ins while you are at work! I am a caring and patient person who loves all animals. My goal is to make every animal feel safe and cared for when in my care!
About: I have experience house/dog sitting. In the past year, I've watched and taken care of three large dogs, a Boxer, and two Labradors, many times. For about two weeks or more depending on the owner's schedule. The boxer has some health issues so I also have some experience with giving medication. I've taken care of two Great Danes who I would classify as loving adorable couch potatoes. I also own two small dogs. My first dog was a Maltese she lived till she was ten but the last year of her life she also had some health issues. I currently have a dog who is also a Maltese Bichon Frise mix who just turned eleven. He is energetic so I'm a very active person and can keep up with your pups too. I understand the importance of giving your pup all the love and attention they need to have a happy life. I will do my very best to provide that for your animals too! I work full time at a car dealership up in the office. I am in the office by 7:00 am and I am typically off by 3:00 pm. I can do late in the evening walks or around when I get off. For drop ins\check ins I could come early in the morning for one and later in the evening for the other on a weekday. As long as it isn't end of month or mid month Fridays I can be off by 1pm. Weekend I am off so I'm more fixable with what I can fit in. I offer drop-in visits and dog walks. During visits, I provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and any routine care requested by the owner. During walks, I ensure pets get safe exercise and attention while following their normal routine. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication with pet owners.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for various pets, including my own two dogs—a Boxer and a Pit Bull. I played a key role in training them, ensuring they were well-behaved and happy. Additionally, I've taken care of pets for my parents' friends and looked after a friend's dog during her late-night clinicals in college. My diverse experience and dedication to each pet's well-being set me apart, ensuring your furry friend receives top-notch care and attention. As a full-time college student with a flexible schedule, I can easily fit pet care into my daily or weekly routine. I'm available to work whenever needed or requested, ensuring your pets get the attention they deserve. I genuinely love working with dogs and have a natural ability to connect with them. My calm and patient demeanor helps me handle pets effectively, even when they don’t listen right away. With my own dogs, we’ve successfully trained them while maintaining patience and understanding. When caring for other dogs, I follow the owner's instructions carefully and handle any issues with a caring and attentive approach, ensuring your pets feel safe and loved. I understand as a dog owner myself that pets are also a member of the family and they need about the same care and attention as a human.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog lover who enjoys spending time with dogs of all breeds and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or more laid-back and cuddly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, giving medications if needed, and sticking to any instructions that help keep your dog happy and stress-free. I understand how important routine and attention are, and I treat every dog like they’re my own! I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. My goal is to make sure your dog gets plenty of care, exercise, affection, and companionship while you’re gone. I’d love to meet you and your dog(s)! I'm a May 2026 Augie grad who is navigating my first full time job post grad, but with a pretty flexible schedule outside of that! I am free weekends at pretty much any time and Monday thru Friday after 4pm. I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and care based on their individual needs and energy levels. For cat sitting, I understand the importance of patience and creating a calm environment so cats can feel comfortable at their own pace while maintaining a clean litter box, offering attention (if wanted), and of course food/treats and water. I always follow owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, leash handling, litter box cleaning, and any special routines or preferences. Safety is very important to me, so I’m attentive during walks, careful with doors and gates, and always mindful of pets’ behavior and surroundings. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and in good hands while they’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bettendorf
Heather was wonderful with our dogs. She showed up for us on a last minute request for the 4th of July. Needless to say that is the hardest day for our dogs with all the fireworks. She helped calm them and care for them while they were stressed and was prompt, personable and communicative. Thanks Heather!
Genevieve is an incredibly calm, patient, and gentle sitter who connected instantly with my guinea pigs, even though they are usually very shy and wary of new people. This was the first time we ever felt comfortable leaving our little ones with someone, as we hadn’t found anyone we trusted enough to care for them and give them their medications (Mazapán is a senior piggy with arthritis, and Mocha is prone to developing stones). Genevieve listened carefully as we explained their cage‑cleaning routine, feeding schedule, and special needs, and she stayed in constant communication with me whenever she had a question. We’re so happy we found her, and we absolutely want her to continue being the one who gives them love and care during our future vacations—which will now be more frequent thanks to her!
Sydney was great with Jax and Gemma. They can be very excitable but after being away and cared for by Sydney they were calm when we arrived home. She was very communicative while we were away and I could tell by the pictures she sent that they enjoyed having her look after them! I couldn’t have asked for anything more from a sitter and will definitely be booking her if we go away in the future!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bettendorf stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bettendorf choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Bettendorf with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
