About: I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by furry family members. I’ve had a variety of different dog breeds — especially those labeled “aggressive.” Because of this, I know every dog has a story and is capable of love regardless of how they’re stereotyped. All animals deserve the same love and kindness as I would give to my very own. I have some experience volunteering at my local humane society & dog sitting for family members & friends. I have no problem tailoring to your animals’ needs and I will treat them with the same love, respect, and adoration that I have for my own fur babies. During the school year my schedule can be a bit hectic with classes and work; however, I can easily move around my schedule and fit in time to care for your pet. If you are willing to be flexible with time, I can easily squeeze you in! If we cannot arrange something, I will be sure to let you know as soon as possible to allow time to find another sitter/ walker. When caring for your pet I expect to find food with instructions (feeding time, how much food, etc.), treats & how many they can have, toys or puzzles, and any other equipment you want me to use when looking after your furry friend. Please do not hesitate to share any boundaries or silly rituals that your pet requires.
About: I’ve had cats in the family for my whole life, I’ve never really known a life without cats. I adopted my first cat over a year ago and started working at an animal shelter this winter, so I’ve gained more and more experience with handling cats that aren’t my own pets. I’ve also gained lots of experience working with dogs through my job and have loved every second of it! I have experience in administering oral medication and would be very willing to learn how to administer medications by injection. I work 5 days a week from 11-6, so I would love to do drop in visits before and after I have work. I would even be open to doing visits later in the evening! I like to start my drop-in visits with scooping litter/filling food and water bowls as soon as I get there. After that, I like to stay and hang out with your pet for at least 30 minutes to keep them company and get to know them. I also like to send you an update (with pictures!) at least once a day!
About: I love dogs and have had dogs my whole life. I have been trusted by friends, family, and coworkers to take care of their dogs whether that be walking, bathing, or just simply staying with them! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I only work four days a week starting at 5 pm! I can crate your dog if needed or I can provide loves of snuggles if they don’t use one! I don’t have any other dogs in my home so they wouldn’t have issues with any other animals.
About: I love to walk with dogs. My dog Buddy and I have walked and ran countless miles around Cedar Falls for the past 9 years. I believe that every dog can benefit from exploring the environment outdoors, and regular exercise is very important, so I would love to make that happen for them. My schedule is very flexible so we can meet at a time that is convenient for you. My dog enjoys longer walks during the later morning time and/or at night with a playtime scheduled in between. Just message me and I will get back to you soon! My senior dog has lots of energy because we have exercised quite often together throughout the years. When we are not walking or running, we enjoy spending time on our balcony, watching tv together, and playing with toys. Buddy loves to run and play with giant bouncy balls. I would love to spend time with your pet and/or take them for a walk.
“Jennifer was responsive communicative and right on time for the meet and greet. She is responsible and knowledgeable with dogs and Josie loved her. Highly recommended”
About: I have taken care of many dogs throughout my life weather that be my own parents dog for periods of time, or friends and families pets as well. I love taking dogs for walks, playing with them, and just being around them in general. I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I’m dependable, organized, and make sure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, meals, and care according to their normal routine. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep a close eye on pets, and make sure they are secure both inside the home and during walks or outdoor activities. I also respect the client’s home and keep it clean and tidy while I’m there.
About: I've lived with cats and worked with dogs my whole life. From bathing my grandma's dog to walking pit bulls at the shelter, animals have always been a part of my life. Over the summer I'm looking for work wherever I can take it but mostly open. In the school year I am usually never gone more than 3 hours. I live in a pet friendly basement apartment with air conditioning. There is space for a kennel and other supplies if needed. It's not gigantic is very clean and the complex has a bark park.
“Amina was super flexible and squeezed my puppy in her schedule, and on very short notice! She also snapped some cute photos of them outside, he looked like he loved it. So glad i reached out to her will definitely be using her in the future :)”
About: My whole life I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats. I’ve done some overnight house sitting with dogs within the last couple of years. Im comfortable with both older and younger animals. I personally have one cat of my own. I adore all types of animals. I work remotely with a very flexible schedule. This allows me to have the time to make sure the best care is given to your pets. I have always been a very vigilant pet owner. Having grown up with many different kinds of pets, I’m well aware each animal has their own needs. Whether that be a dog who has a ton of energy and needs a more engaging walk, or one who like to take a slower stroll. I’m ready for whatever needs your animal may have.
About: I have worked with and loved many animals throughout my life; gaining experience by working with rescues, shelters and non-profit organizations benefiting dogs, cats and horses in Iowa and Virginia. I have also worked in the pet care industry my whole life. I was a Pet Groomer for 10 years, have worked closely with trainers, supervised daycare & boarding, and have spent the last 3 years in Veterinary Medicine as a Veterinary Assistant. I currently share my home with Clover a Toy Poodle, Salbert a Standard Poodle, Cas the kitty and Mocha the hamster ❤️ I have experience in most aspects of pet care; dog sitting, boarding, basic First Aid, administering oral & injectable medications, grooming and training, and know that each pet needs a unique, gentle approach. First and foremost I believe in making your pet comfortable by sticking to their (and your) schedule as much as possible. By keeping feeding, walking & potty times the same, I can provide a calm and happy presence for your pet through a positive attitude and relaxed demeanor. I also enjoy providing enrichment for you pet through play, walks, games and treats. Pet care is my life! I am available most every day to help you keep your pets happy and healthy, and to help them thrive in their own, comfortable environment. From a walk around the block a couple times a week, to daily drop in visits while you're at work, and finally house sitting when you're on that special trip, I'm here to be that special friend your pet needs! Keeping your pet safe is my number one priority. From making sure doors and gates are securely shut, to triple checking medicine before it’s given and using an additional slip lead for walks and transport, nothing goes unnoticed!
About: I am passionate about animal care. I love to clean and make sure everyone in the home is as happy as can be. I will treat your pet like a member of my family. I am available through the end of the summer. Until then my schedule can be very flexible. After that I will only be available on weekends. I like to respect the animals space and not be disrespectful to a stranger in their space. Some animals can be more anxious or have certain needs of care that I’m happy to provide.
About: I have always loved pets. Throughout my entire life, I have had both cats and dogs, and recently my family adopted a gecko from my stepsister. Pets have always been the center of my day, and I always look forward to seeing my little fur-babies, and taking care of them. With this I have been referred to many family friends to extend the love and care I have for my babies onto their babies. I will always take care of your fur-babies as I would my own. I also am very good at giving pets medicine, as I have done it for a few years now. I am a full time college student at UNI, and I love taking care of animals. Being away at college has made me miss my own animals, so I fill that gap by getting to take care and love other animals, and give other families peace of mind while away. I am super open to any environments, whether it be a fenced in yard, or a yard where I will need to leash the pups/kitties up to take them out. I will listen and obey any instructions the client may give, whether it be for respecting the pets, or respecting the house.
About: I currently have four teens and three dogs - I do a great job of keeping them loved and alive and I’m happy to do the same for you. I work a part-time flexible job and my kids are all drivers so with all this free time I’m looking for something to fill it up with! I have been around dogs since birth. Oh, and raised four children - I got this. I have reliable transportation and an obsession with getting lots of steps in a day.
About: Hi, my name is Lexi and I would love to take care of your pets! I have a wide variety of experience including; overnight care, drop ins, senior cat and dog care, medical needs, special dietary care, and kitten/puppy care. Pets have always been a huge part of my life and I would love to have the privilege to take care of yours! I will be a student at Hawkeye community college with two classes in person and the rest online. Meaning that my schedule is very open and suitable for pet care. I will also attend dance team practice three times a week for two hours each time. I have no other current occupation so I have a very open and available schedule.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers 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 walker.
