“Our two boys love Angie! She’s very attentive, and treats our boys like her own. Love the pics and updates she sends throughout the day! She’s very flexible and we highly recommend her. Will definitely continue booking with Angie!!”
“Jessica was an amazing house sitter. The boys got spoiled with her and she was so loving to them. Hey miss her already. She was very prompt with communication. We plan on using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica!!”
“Amber was great. She took great care of my dogs and house. My Beagle does not like storms and she kept him calm during a little storm. This was my first time using Rover and she gave me a great first experience. I will be hiring her for future needs.”
“Allison was AWESOME!!! She took excellent care of our babies. Our house was clean and tidy when we returned home. She communicated often and asked great questions to make sure she was the right things for our babies. She was also very flexible as our leave and return times were not definite. I would highly recommend her!”
“Nancy stayed at our house for two nights and was great with our two cats! One needs liquid medicine administered twice a day and she handled it with no problem. Nancy was very communicative, and sent pics & videos for us to see how well our kitties were doing while we were away. We will feel perfectly comfortable using Nancy again!”
About: New to Rover, not new to pet care. My golden retriever Annabelle has trained me well. I know the drill: the zoomies that need burning off, the "I definitely didn't just eat" stare, the way every dog thinks their routine is sacred (it is). I've also got two guinea pigs, Mimzy and Pip, so I'm no stranger to smaller, more delicate care too, if that's ever part of the mix. I care for pets of all shapes, sizes, and species. Big, small, fluffy, scaly, I've got you! I help pet parents actually enjoy their time away with peace of mind that their animals are okay. Here's how: 📸 Photo & video updates 🚶 Walks 🏠 Multi-pet households 💊 Medication administration 🧓 Senior pet care 🍽️ Picky eaters & special diets 🐾 Comfortable with reptiles & small animals too I work from home with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my day. Walks around the neighborhood are already part of this routine, and I'd love to bring your dog along! When I care for your pets, their safety is my number one priority. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure so pets can't slip out unexpectedly. I keep your contact details on hand at all times, and I do a quick safety check of the space before I leave. If anything ever went wrong, I'd contact you immediately and get your pet to a vet right away.
“Adrianne took wonderful care of Oliver. She kept us updated and sent pictures throughout the weekend. Oliver has a happy pup when we returned, we will definitely be booking her again!”
“We loved having Megan stay with our three kitties. She sent texts, pics, and videos every day, and I could tell our boys were well cared for. We have a senior cat who needs meds daily, and she kept a daily record of his meds. I enjoyed meeting Megan, highly recommend her, and wouldn't hesitate to reach out to have her stay with our kitties next time we take a trip.”
“Yasmin was very diligent about sending pictures and updates about our cat while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our cat. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Stacey is awesome!! I'll admit that I'm not the most timely communicator, but Stacey is! She She always confirmed with me before our scheduled meet and greets, she was confident with our dog that isn't the best with new people, she kept us up to date regarding how our three pups were doing, and sent some sweet pictures. Our pups were clearly content hanging out with her. We will definitely be asking her to stay again! Thank you, Stacey!”
About: My animals are my family members. I grew up in the show ring with both horses and dogs. I’ve had dogs, cats, horses and chickens for most of my life. My family has raised Australian Terriers (think Toto) since I was about 8 years old. I have shown dogs, raised puppies, had cats, chickens, a cockatiel and fish. I’m an avid animal lover, and would love to help care for your furry family member! I currently work full time, so I am unable to provide around the clock care for your pet. However, I only accept clients within a small service area in order to provide a quick lunch time potty break if needed. I love exercise, and am happy to take your dog for a walk! I am also comfortable with farm care, and happy to feed the horses, chickens, goats…. If you need this care, just send me a message! I currently work full time, and am only taking on house sitting clients within a close range in order to provide a lunch time let out if needed. Drop-ins that are not part of house sitting are accepted on a limited basis. I would love to feed the horses, walk the dogs, play fetch with your furry best friend, give the cat a scratch…. All animals are welcome. Safety is paramount. I firmly believe in leashing pets on walks, have experience with when to seek vet assistance, and believe that communication with you is the highest priority! I am confident that I can provide the best service to your family member. Meet and greets encouraged!
“I use Molly regularly as I have trips every couple of months out of state. Molly is great at communicating and sending updates. I know my boys are in good hands with her and she makes these stressful trips so much easier knowing this. I recommend her every chance I get!”
“Justus did an AMAZING job of watching my 1year old German Shepherd, Violet! She was there for 3 days and she sent tons of photos and updates so I didn't have to worry. She played with her a lot, left my house spotless and was respectful of everything there. I know Violet will love having her back next time I have to go out of town with her. Lastly, if she can handle my puppy and her energy for 3 days.. she can handle anything!”
About: I’ve had for dogs of every age and size for my entire life, but have been a serious caretaker of them for about 10 years. I can give medicines including insulin shots, and will heed every dietary and exercise need given to me. I’m currently working full-time, however I commute from Ames to Des Moines every day so I am used to driving long distances. I also have a very flexible schedule and can work from home if I can give at least 2-3 days notice; I can leave for long periods at lunch; and I can get off work early if a drop-in visit is needed before 4:00. I can also stay as late as necessary into the evening, as long as expectations are communicated beforehand. I am extremely communicative and I will let my clients know if I am early, behind, or unable to complete a task. I cannot take pets into my apartment or workplace, however, I have experience with strictly and loosely trained animals in just about every situation under the sun. I am comfortable staying the night in a well secured home, or taking a few minutes to play with the pet(s) in the middle of the day. I am extremely clean and organized and will strive to leave my clients’ homes in the same shape or cleaner in case there are any accidents, as I am also well-versed in cleaning up after any mishaps from being left alone or too excited.
“Donna was nice and very easy to work with. She was reliable and on time for both the initial meeting and for the stay so we could leave on time. She did a great job and provided some good updates and pictures of the dogs. Thanks for taking good care of them!”
“Travis was exceptionally quick to respond and very attentive to my three dogs. Two of my dogs can be hyper and he never once seemed put off by their behaviors. I got photo updates from him without having to ask and he was on time to get to my house before we left out of state. If we needed a sitter again, we’d definitely book with Travis.”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bondurant walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bondurant maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Bondurant 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!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
