“Our flight got delayed and September accomodated our request to hold Lucas past the pickup time. She send nice photos and when picking him, we can feel he was happy and safe.”
“Merry and Tucker love Cato come to Kayla’s home. They out of the car and head directly for the front door. Merry even had a fury friend for the last visit. They played until exhausted. Great time for our high energy girl. Our old boy was able to get plenty of rest. Kayla always ensures Ricker gets her medication. Both come home happy, and relaxed!! Thank you again Kayla”
“Ruby and Leia loved their time with Brittany and family (even the kitties!)! We enjoyed working with Brittany and appreciated all the updates throughout our dog(s) week long stay. She sent us updates when Ruby was a little sick and helped reassure us that she was doing better! She sent photos and videos throughout the week to let us know they were doing well and we so appreciated that! We plan to reach out to Brittany for our future needs.”
About: I have 2 senior dogs, I know how difficult for me to leave them when I can't take them with me for the trip. I know what kind of sitter that I need that can calm me down and make my getaway easier. I am the sitter who knows how to care for your pups and make your mind at ease. I am working home. I have plenty of time to walk your dog, play with your dog or just cuddle with your fur baby. I have very flexible time. I have a fenced big yard and two friendly dogs who can keep your pup company. I can follow whatever specific instructions you need of me to best care for your pet.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life and loved them each so much. I am experienced with a gentle heart and genuine love for animas. I’m currently home all week raising my kids and cats. I’m available anytime throughout the week to take care of your animals needs and wants! ❤️ I have a fenced in yard and can easily crate your animal inside my house. I have three friendly cats that sleep on their own level of the house at night.
“We had to leave our dog for 3 weeks, which is the longest we ever been away from him or that he’s ever been away from home. I was so happy to find Amanda! She and her family took great care of him and it eased our minds knowing that he was getting walks and lots of attention every day and wasn’t stuck in a kennel the whole time. Amanda was very flexible with pick up and drop off times, and she was good about sending pics and updates while we were gone.”
About: Dogs in the family for over 20 years. They are part of the family. Rest assured, well fed, exercised and rest. And most importantly done with affection. Currently work from home so the dogs have constant interaction and access to yard. I have a 1 1/2 aussie and a toy poodle who love the play with other dogs. Large fenced in yard with pool for dogs to run or swim. Your pet will sleep with ours inside, crated or not depending on what they are used to.
About: I've dog sat for many years. I have had 5 consistent clients who always contact me if they need a sitter. I have a good understanding of animal care and needs as a pre-vet student. In addition I have a good understanding of what is expected when working with pets. I also am a student trainer for service dog organization Paws Giving Independence and have learned lots about dogs from this. Through this program I also fostered a puppy, Sherman, and learned a great deal about puppies and how to train them for basic house manners. I am a pre-vet student at ISU. My classes are not super time consuming currently so I have lots of availability. I am an ISU cheerleader however sports season is over so we no longer have lots of commitments only weekly practice. Lots of experience with kenneling dogs and working on kenneling. I personally have a kennel in my house and am allowed pets in my apartment. Lots of experience with in home pet care and am willing to do whatever is needed whether that is picking up waste, giving medication, baths, anything that is needed!

“Kelli was so wonderful... this was our first time. Our dog was extremely nervous, but Kelli really was going above and beyond trying to help our dog feel at home. Her care and love for dogs is very apparent and she's very willing to be flexible and work with whatever the situation!”
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and pets have always been a big part of my life. My family and I rescued a dog when I was in elementary school, and I still have my childhood pup by my side today. When I moved out for college, I started fostering dogs of all ages and sizes, eventually adopting one of my own. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of pet-sitting for family, friends, and coworkers, and they always knew their pets would be loved and cared for like they were my own. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or long walks, I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and at home! I currently work part-time, mostly on the weekends from 10am-3pm, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur baby! During the week I have two classes, Mondays and Wednesdays 1pm-3:20pm and Tuesdays and Thursdays 12:30pm-1:45pm. Outside of these hours I am mostly free and spending time with my own pups and doing homework. For boarding; I spend a majority of my time at home and wouldn’t leave for more than a couple hours at a time. I have a fenced in yard and one large dog and one small dog to keep your fur babies company. I am very attentive to each pet's and happy to accommodate any needs to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. You can count on regular updates, photos, and open communication so you always know your fur baby is in great hands!

Amy P.
“It is my genuine pleasure to recommend Amy for any position in pet care. She is a warm, nurturing soul by nature, and her love for animals is evident in every interaction I’ve witnessed. Whether she’s caring for her own pets or looking after someone else’s, Amy approaches each animal with patience, gentleness, and a deep sense of responsibility. What stands out most about Amy is not only her attentiveness, but also her willingness to learn and adapt. She doesn’t just go through the motions—she takes the time to understand each animal’s unique personality, needs, and quirks. I’ve seen her research new techniques, ask questions, and go the extra mile to make sure every pet in her care feels safe and loved. I would entrust Amy with any of my animals without hesitation. She has both the heart and the work ethic to excel in this field, and I know she will bring warmth, reliability, and dedication to any pet care role she takes on. Sincerely, Maggie Holliday”

Bloomington pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kenna and John are simply the best! They have loved on our first fur baby several times and recently welcomed our new puppy with open arms, even though we all know how challenging the puppy phase can be! They are kind and professional and we trust them completely. Their communication is top notch and we really appreciated the pics and videos while we were away. They will continue to be the first people we reach out to when we need a sitter for our dogs!
Keandra went above and beyond to make sure my dog had a good time. She also was very flexible with pickup/drop off times which was helpful since I had a flight early in the morning. She also gave my dog a free shower and made sure he got plenty of exercise and play time with her dogs. 100% would recommend Keandra
Chris, Erika and family made my Ellie part of their family during my 2-week trip to Africa. I could travel across the world knowing that my Ellie was in good hands. They communicated frequently and sent pictures throughout the 2 weeks. Being about 18 months old, Ellie needs to burn off a lot of energy and it was blistering hot and humid while I was gone. But they took Ellie on a good walk early every morning before the heat hit. If you want your dog to feel like they are in a home away from home, a stay with Chris, Erika and family will do just that. Thank you for your attentive care that allowed me to thoroughly enjoy my trip abroad.
sarah was very sweet and gave updates about my baby girl. she followed our instructions for care well and harley came back a happy and tired girl. we booked last minute but she was very accommodating for us. if you need care in the normal / blooomington area, reach out and see if she’s available. :)
Laney was absolutely amazing with my senior Chihuahua, Pixie! My little one can be quite a handful because she’s older, needs special care, and doesn’t always warm up to new people easily. But Laney was incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive from the very beginning. Laney proved her dedication to make sure Pixie and I were comfortable from the start. We chatted during a video call and arranged an in person meet up from there. Laney took the time to understand my Pixie’s unique needs and daily routine. Laney sent me regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that Laney truly loves animals and has experience with senior pets. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and I will not hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Laney to anyone looking for compassionate, reliable care!
Madison and Jason are lifesavers. I was traveling to Bloomington for a work meeting and unexpectedly needed to have my dog in tow. They agreed to dog sit for a few hours while I was occupied with my work call. They sent me so many pics in only the few hours that they watched Chevy, and I could tell he was very comfortable with them. 5/5
