“Jenny took such good care of my reactive dog! She was patient and understanding, and knew what to do to get my dog to warm up to her. She also sent a nice amount of photos and updates which I sincerely appreciated!”
“Needless to say I was very apprehensive leaving Mya for the first time ever with a stranger. However, Rachel calmed my fears and did an excellent job caring for Mya. She sent numerous pictures and texts which assured me that Mya was happy and well cared for. Thanks Rachel! We will be back!!”
“Katie and Shaun are wonderful! Their place allows true outside dogs to be comfortable and Happy. Would highly recommend, and they treat your dog like family. They give awesome updates and videos of your dogs activities as well!”
“Bethany was wonderful your Benny! She exercised him, played with him and kept him entertained with her two other dogs. She communicated well and sent plenty of pictures while we were away! Will definitely be using Bethany again!”
“Angie was very sweet and welcoming, and clearly gives a lot of TLC to the dogs staying with her. I was so glad for our dog to have a good place to stay, with other dogs to keep her company while we're away.”
“Lindsay was terrific. Jason immediately felt comfortable in her home, climbing up on the coach and rolling around happily. She did a great job providing food and snuggles and walks.”
“Deirdre was absolutely amazing. She sent many pictures and updates. After meeting her I felt completely comfortable and at ease leaving my Fur baby with her. Definitely recommend working with her!”
“Kaylee spent time with Copper when I dropped him off to make sure he was comfortable. He only spent the night and he had a kennel between two others. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall to see how he responded to being in the kennel between the two other occupied kennels. He was very happy to see me the next day as I was him! Kaylee was very friendly!”
“Jennifer was A++! This was the first time leaving our pup as he's only 6 months old. She sent us daily updates of him, videos of him playing with her dog, and he came home tired. We didn't worry about our pup for one minute while we were away. We would definitely book her again to care for our little Rowdy ❤️ Can't thank her enough for taking such good care of him!”
“Chelsey was a fantastic caretaker for Hawkeye while we were out of town! He loved her fenced in yard and all the walks she took him on. I loved that she sent photos and updates while we were away. She has a lovely home with a nice, fenced in backyard. We will definitely ask Chelsey to take care of our boy again!!”
“Adriana definitely eased our minds while we were away on vacation! Not only did Adriana care for our family 😻 pet we all love very much, but she also “looked after” the outdoor neighborhood “pets” that sometimes eat & stay in the makeshift “house” built to help them stay as warm as possible during these winter months!! She also went above & beyond doing some light housework inside & outside!”
About: I've been caring for all kinds of animals since I was little. I have experience with animal all breeds, sizes and personalities. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with and care for their pets while away. I'm also a vet tech student and have worked with animals in a professional setting in the past. I treat every pet like they are my own family and provide updates as well. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, so I'll have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, medication if needed and lots of love. I always do my best to accommodate each pet's individual schedule and needs. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your care instructions and make sure pets always have fresh water, exercise, and plenty of attention. I provide a calm, loving environment and will send regular photo and text updates while you're away.

“We had a great experience with Janny and Tramyra! They are incredibly knowledgeable, laid back and patient. They watched our two dogs for over a week, took them on several walks and gave them lots of play time with other furry friends. One of our dogs has battled severe anxiety in the past when we’ve left her and also displayed nervousness around other dogs. Not only did she feel at home with Janny and Tramyra, but she felt comfortable enough to interact with and play with other dogs. Our dog who is on a weight loss journey even lost weight during his stay! They sent daily updates and lots of pictures to give us peace of mind. This was our first experience using Rover and it left a really good impression!”
“Rachel was great about giving me updates, sending pictures, and video. Overall communication was excellent. Our dog looked like he was at ease and enjoying his time with Rachel and her family. We will definitely book with Rachel and her family in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cedar Falls
Bethany was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She took such great care of him while I was in Seattle for a few days, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. She was caring, attentive, communicative, and clearly treated him like her own. I really appreciated the updates and could tell he was happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Bethany again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving dog sitter!
Deirdre provided great care for our puppy while we were away - providing regular updates and sending pictures often which gave us great piece of mind! Our pup loved playing with her dog Maverick. She was extremely understanding when flight delays caused us to have a late pick up. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cedar Falls home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Cedar Falls.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Cedar Falls sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
