“Jason is wonderful! He absolutely loves cats! I can see that! I knew my cat would be better off with him. I liked how he responded quickly also!”

“Ali did a wonderful job of watching my 92 y/os Mom little white velcro dog. We felt like she listened to us and took loving care of him. Thanks for the great experience. We Highly recommend this sitter.”

About: Hi! I’m Zinia, a stay-at-home mom living in North Liberty with my husband, Grant, a resident physician at UIHC, and our 2-year-old daughter, Zoe. We lost our sweet Yorkshire Terrier, Missy, to old age after 15 years together. She was such a big part of our family, and we really miss having a dog around! We’re not quite ready to get another dog of our own, but we’d love to have a furry friend to spoil every now and then. That’s really what brought me to Rover. We miss the company of a dog, and I thought this would be a nice way to have one around from time to time while helping out other dog owners. Zoe grew up with Missy and absolutely loves dogs. She’s a gentle little girl who loves to cuddle, read books, and watch movies with any dog willing to keep her company. She’s used to being around small dogs, but of course, I’ll always supervise their interactions. Your dog and Zoe will never be left alone together. Since I’m home with Zoe during the day, your pup will have plenty of company and attention. We like to spend our mornings outside, going for walks around the neighborhood or exploring the nearby trails and parks. We usually go for another walk in the evening, too. The rest of our day is pretty relaxed, with lots of time for playing, lounging around, and cuddling on the couch. Our yard isn’t fenced, so all potty breaks will be on a leash. I take dogs out every couple of hours and more often if they need it. We only take dogs from one family at a time, whether that’s one dog or a few from the same household. We’re really just doing this because we miss having a dog around, so we’d rather keep things small and enjoy spending time with the dogs we have staying with us. That way, each pup gets plenty of love and attention, just like Missy did. I’m a stay at home mom so I am home all day unless I’m doing a grocery run or going to a doctors appointment We live in a townhome. We have an unfenced yard with a long leash in ground for quick potty breaks. We live across the street from a park and take daily walks.

“Anastasiia was EXCELLENT!! Communication was great and she included daily pictures and videos. My dog has anxiety during storms and she was very compassionate with him. I couldn’t be happier with the way she treated Chipper!!”

“Stacy did an AWESOME job with my 1 year old (LARGE) dog, Jemma. She worked with her on commands that we'd been working on and gave her lots of love! She sent pictures every day and was very easy to work with. She is great with animals and was able to watch Jemma for a week while I was travelling - what a life saver she is!!!!”

Sarah B.

“We love booking with Danny! She consistently sends us regular updates and photos throughout the day, which gives us so much peace of mind. She even took our dog to the park for some extra fun and exercise. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking to board their pet for a few days!”

Sydney T.

“We appreciated the photos and updates on Peanut's condition. She appeared to quickly blend in with Issac and his family. We will be sure to use him again.”

Ronald B.

“Andrea was awesome to work with! She has an initial Meet and Greet so we could meet her and see her home and yard where Frank and Walter would be staying. This helped put us at ease. When we dropped the boys off she was prepared and ready to take on whatever came her way. The boys had a great time at her home and she sent lots of pictures of them playing and snuggling. It’s obvious she cares about the dogs she cares for. She was also super flexible when we ended up with continuous issues getting home. We so appreciated this as we were stressed already with our many delays. We will definitely have Andrea watch Frank and Walter again soon. Thanks again Andrea!!”

Cynthia W.

“Brooke was communicative, understanding of accomodations for our dogs, and sent lots of photos! We would definitely recommend her. The dogs came back home very tired after a great day playing with the other dogs.”

About: I always knew I had this nature since I was little, on taking care of animals. I always want to protect them and make sure they are well, because I love them very much and I get upset when an animal is not okay. Been taking care of animals since I was 5 years old. I currently do not have a full time job but I do have offers around and I want to experience with this app too. My availability depends if I have an interview or I have to do an orientation. I currently have to go to Chicago every week starting on the 16 but I can do weekends. I am very exited, can’t wait to meet all these animals :) My house it is pretty big, and is very safe, there is no kids around and we can always place something on the side for them to stay put into one place !

About: I’ve taken care of numerous animals my whole life starting at the age of 5. I have 2 dogs of my own who are my world. Your fur babies will be in the best of care. I currently work Tuesday through Friday 11 am to 9 pm. I have Saturday, Sunday, and Monday off. I can provide pet care anytime through the day Saturday through Monday and mornings on Tuesday through Friday. Whatever your pets needs they will be provided. Whether they need to be walked or just checked on and given companionship they will be provided for

“Amanda’s communication was excellent and we discussed my dog’s feeding schedule and needs and she made sure to accommodate. I also received several cute photos during his stay. I could tell he was happy when I went to pick him up. Definitely recommend!”

“My dog had fun there! Nice sitting!”

About: I’ve watched many dogs and two cats over the past 4 years usually over family friend vacations. I’ve worked with reactive dogs as well as two young puppies. I spoil my dogs and would be happy to treat your pets with just as much love! I am a part time college student so I have a TON of time to pet sit! As I prepare for dental school in the fall, I will also be free for summer work. I love staying with dogs in either an environment they are used to or my own depending on what the pet parent prefers! There is a fenced in dog park behind my apartment that is never occupied where I run around with dogs. If it is occupied, I would walk around the park nearby with lots to smell on the trail. I also love giving dog baths, so that could totally be included!

“Ang was fabulous. She and her family took the very best care possible of our small dog, sending pictures and updates often! It was obvious that not only were his needs met, but he was smothered in love and attention--I was worried he wouldn't want to come home! :)”

About: I grew up on a farm, so I've always been surrounded by animals and have developed a natural ability to care for them. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of animal behavior. I’m not only comfortable with dogs of all ages but also have experience handling puppies and providing senior dog care. I work from home, which allows me to give your pet my full attention throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I'll be the one taking care of your pet personally, ensuring they get plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. We have a dog at home and an unfenced yard, but we're just one block away from a dog park, so your pet will have plenty of opportunities for outdoor play and exercise. If needed, we can crate our dog to ensure safety and comfort during your pet's visit. We always prioritize the well-being of all pets in our care and will adjust our home environment as needed to meet your pet's needs.

“Kenneth and his family were wonderful pet people! They work at home and have a high schooler, and live near great play places. My pup enjoyed playing with their dog and came home tired and happy. Got several updates through my trip with pics. I would have no reservations reserving with them again!”

Kathy W.

“Amanda did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 senior dogs. She provided daily updates for us. She was also very accommodating when I came to our plans changing last minute. Thank you so much.”

About: I have loved critters of all kinds since childhood. I attended obedience training for my family Rottweiler at age 6, and have cared for many big-breed dogs such as pitbulls, American bulldogs, mastiffs, Great Danes, labs, and more. I have been the trusted pet sitter for friends and family starting as early as middle school, and am also very comfortable around small breeds and senior babies. I have experience with Boston terriers, yorkies, daschunds, beagles, and more. I have and am comfortable with administering necessary meds or topicals for pets with extra health needs. I have also cared for cats, bunnies, fish, and turtles. I am very passionate about rescuing, and happy to discuss any extra care your pet may need due to a life transition like fostering or rescuing. I watched a PETA ad when I was 9 years old and have been vegetarian ever since… I just really love animals! :) I am working part-time from home at the moment, so I am very flexible currently with my schedule. I am typically available in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings! I have a fenced in backyard, and I do not have a dog of my own. I have a dining area with an extra couch that can be sectioned off if needed for a crate or food. I do have a senior cat who is indoor, who is very friendly with dogs. He grew up around my mom’s beagles, so he doesn’t mind company/energy! I can section off my basement stairs and kitchen for safety if needed. I cannot board any cat-aggressive dogs for my cat’s safety. I do not use any non pet-safe cleaners or pest control in my home.
