“This was my first time using a Rover sitter but it won’t be my last. I loved Georgia’s regular updates and photos each day. She seemed to care about my kitty and providing her with loving care while we were away. Thank you, Georgia!”
“Rachel was fantastic, and our Penny loved her! Rachel was very prompt with all of her communications, and she offered to come by and do a meet and greet before our appointment with her. We also appreciated her willingness to stop by for a second puppy visit after we found out we would be delayed getting home. Great young lady and a great puppy sitter!”
“Amber is super accommodating and flexible with all the odd requests that I have used her services for! She’s exceptional at listening to direction and helping with training!”
“This was my first time with Kelley but I was impressed with her when she came for a meet and greet. She's calm and self-assured. She spent some time with the dogs and the initial visit went well. She arrived promptly at our scheduled time and sent me a detailed report with lots of cute photos. I'm fortunate that she lives close so that it's not an inconvenience to come during the day or in the evening. I've already scheduled another appointment with her!”
“Gabrielle was great! She was available for me last minute. She kept me updated about the dogs and sent me photos that gave me a reassurance that they were in good hands! Highly recommend!”
About: I am an Animal Science Major at ISU and worked at a vet clinic recently! I am looking forward to having process in my career and loving what I do best! I am full time in school and the rest of the day throughout homework and studying I’m up and about with my animals fitting in their needs and care. I value their space when giving me signals of stress and being overwhelmed as very excited with them when that is what they need. Full energy dogs are so loving and we have the best time as well as calm and old souls who needs more naps.
“Peggy is an excellent petsitter-- we had her drop in to check on our cat while out of town, and she was really attentive and kind to our girl! I really appreciated her daily updates, and everything went perfectly-- 10/10, would recommend to friends nd family!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve been the designated pet sitter for all my family and friends since I was 10. Over the years, I’ve gained very diverse experiences and skills in pet care, including: • Caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Aiding dogs with mobility issues • Caring for blind and/or deaf dogs • Administering medications, including insulin • Managing conflict between dogs • Basic grooming of all coat types • Basic training techniques, as learned through a service dog training program I’m free whenever your pets need me, weekends and weekdays. I only have one online class this summer, so I can give your pets all the attention they need! Let me know any specific care preferences such as crating, separating certain pets, preferred route for walks, cleaning instructions, etc. I only use positive reinforcement and refuse to use any tool that can harm the dog(s), including prong collars.
“Alyssa was amazing! We were so nervous to leave our 4-month-old kitten at home while we were on vacation. We have an 8-year-old cat as well, who loves alone time…but our kitten needs a lot more attention! Alyssa sent so many pictures and detailed updates. We felt at ease knowing she was there! (:”
“Andrew and Haley were perfect! They dropped in on my cat for a weekend and were very thorough with their petsitting. Most importantly, my cat Dino trusted them and was very comfortable. They fed him and played with him during their visits. Would definitely book them again!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Chris and Kate! They provided a daily drop-in visit to check in on our kitties while we were out of town. Our playful kitty Lin met them at the door each day, our shy kitty Dottie quickly warmed up to them, and they were even able to spot our senior cat Smokey a number of times (before he ran off to hide, as he usually does, haha!) I also really appreciated the detailed notes and adorable photos of the kitties they sent us each day -- you could tell how comfortable the kittens were with them by the end of the week. It's such a relief to know your pets are being well taken care of when you're out of town! This was our first time using Rover, and I'm so glad to have had such a great experience with Kate and Chris! We will be booking them again in the future! :) Thank you!”
“Jaclyn dropped in on my cat while I was out of the country for two weeks. This was a huge relief because not only did she take pics and fill out his card, she also kept me informed of a possible illness and engaged with me in multiple texts on his care and well being. 100% will book with Jackie again!!”
About: I am a teacher and have summers off! Let me and my sweet daughter help take care of your pet this summer. We are too busy during the school year to justify having our own pet, so let us spoil yours! I have lots of availability this summer- let's work something out! Just reach out and we can get something on the calendar- whether you need over night care or your furry friend needs a walk. We have a partially fenced in yard. We live close to the trial, so we will go on many walks. We have a leash outside as well as room to crate inside.
“Renae is always our first choice for a pet sitter. She recently checked in on our cat while we were gone for a week. She even clipped his nails for us which we super appreciate! She is kind and caring and always sends lots of pictures.”

Jill took great care of our cats Artemis and Teddy. She was very professional and polite during our meet and greet as well. Everything was kept clean and well stocked and our cats got plenty of playtime and pets. If you are looking for anyone to watch your pets for a short or extended period of time I recommend Jill!
Chris and Kate are fantastic! This is our second time booking with them to watch our kitties and will not be the last! They provided detailed notes after each visit to let us know how things went - I love how quickly our kittens became comfortable with them almost immediately! Thank you, Chris and Kate, for providing such great care for Lin and Dottie while we were out of town. It's such a comforting feeling knowing they're in great hands!
MacKenzie was fantastic with my drama cat Flash! MacKenzie was responsive to my emails. She helped my Flash get through a very traumatic time for Flash, as his companion cat had recently passed. MacKenzie went the extra mile trying to comfort Flash each day while I was away. MacKenzie is truly a great cat lover, and I would recommend her to anyone.
Jaclyn was fantastic. She provided detailed updates and photos that reassured us our kitties were in good hands. She gave our needy boy extra attention and snuggle time. She even earned the trust of our shy girl. We will definitely be using Jaclyn again in the future.
