1. Jenevieve Y.
“Jenevieve was so wonderful to work with! She wanted all the info to make sure was fully prepared to take care of our Phil and super patient with all my questions! I literally could not have asked for a better first Rover experience! Jenevieve did have other bookings that were her regulars, but to make things more comfortable for our pooch, she had us come a little early so he could see that all was good, and he could get familiar before more friends came to play. I got lots of pictures of Phil having lots of fun and getting lots of snuggles. He truly made himself at home and that made us so happy! I appreciate how accommodating and thoughtful Jenevieve was throughout the whole processes and that made our visit to DSM really stress-free because I didn't have to worry about our little buddy at all! Thank you, Jenevieve!!! If we ever come back to Des Moines, you will be the first person we look up!”

“Alice is absolutely amazing ! As soon as we dropped Benji off, we felt like he was in the best hands! This was one of the first times we were away from him this long and Alice made us feel so at ease and reassured throughout the whole trip! I’ve found a permanent dog-sitter in Alice ! I highly recommend and appreciate you, Alice ! Thank you for everything !!”
3. Madison P.
“Ollie adored Madison! This was our first booking with Madison and we couldn't be happier. She took excellent care of our pup and sent a ton of adorable pictures!”
4. Lisa S.
“Lisa did a great job with our dog who suffers from separation anxiety. She gave him all the snuggles he wanted and kept updating us regularly. We will be sure to use Lisa again!”
5. Justin Z.
“Justin was great watching our dog Chase for a week! He added all the supplements into our dogs food daily, gave him 1:1 time, let him play everywhere (in his home and the backyard,) and sent us daily update photos and videos of Chase! When we first met Justin he asked appropriate questions about Chase and was very welcoming to us and Chase. We are extremely happy to have someone we completely trust to take care of Chase in the future!”
6. Mackenzie W.
“Super nice, great communication! Received pictures&/or videos every day. Coco really seemed to enjoy herself and came back happy and freshly bathed! Thank you!”
7. Jaden B.
“Jaded was very communicative and flexible! He was willing to work with our schedule and gave great care to the pups. We appreciated all the photos and know they had a great time.”
8. Scott S.
“Freya had the best week with Scott and Jess! If you’ve got a pup that loves to play, look no further for the best boarding experience. From the meet and greet, it was clear that Scott and Jess have dog boarding down to a science. They have a great space for it, and dogs are clearly their passion. After that, drop off was a breeze, even for us teary eyed owners. We received picture updates every day, and we could see the joy and care in each one. Freya experienced a doggie birthday party, time in the pool, and running with the pack around the yard. Since picking her up, she’s been out like a light! We couldn’t recommend Scott and Jess more—they took the anxious/guilty feeling of leaving our pup behind for vacation and turned it into “Freya’s on vacation, too!””
9. Jessica V.
“Jessica is a terrific dog sitter. We rarely leave our dog, so when we do it is nice to feel comfortable leaving her with a trusted sitter. Our dog spent her weekend away from us playing with Jessica's dog and being treated like family. She is worn out from all of the fun she had. We will be using Jessica again!”
10. Alexandra H.
“This was my first time leaving my senior rescue pups with a Rover sitter. Alexandra was patient with my dogs and the time it took them to settle in, get comfortable and bark less. Appreciated her prompt responses and communication. Her setup was great for my dogs and she has a giant fenced in backyard!”
11. Ashly B.
“Ashly was amazing!! She took great care of my dog, Franny came home exhausted. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day, I had never used rover before so I was a bit nervous but she assured me all would be great and it was, I have no doubt that we will absolutely be back! :)”
12. Elizabeth W.
“My Buddy had a great time with Elizabeth. He made good friends with her dogs, loved her backyard, and enjoyed his walks. This is my first extended time leaving him so I really appreciated all the pictures and video updates.”
13. Ashley G.
“Ashley was great! I did not worry about our dog Harley while we were gone. Ashley answered me immediately when I checked in. I will definitely use her again, and highly recommend her.”
14. Carlee J.
“Carlee did great with our pup! We were gone at a music festival, and we received so many updates. We felt that she had a great time with her and her family.”
15. Evan H.
“Couldn't have been better. Evan was super accommodating with our last minute travel plans and answered all questions and texts back very quickly and professionally. He even texted us photos so we could see she was happy and having fun. Will definitely use again.”
16. Patricia ..
“I can't recommend Patricia enough. She did an outstanding job and gave us updates every day while we were on our vacation. It was reassuring seeing our little guy taken care of so well. He had a warm bed, house and friends all around him the whole time. We often wondered if he'd even want to come back home 😊 We will definitely use Pat to take care of our little guy on our next family vacation.”
17. Maggie G.
