“Kayla was great to work with. She was efficient and organized. It’s clear our little guy received great care with her. We will totally contact Kayla again if we need a sitter! She seems to have a true heart for animals!!”
“Liz did a wonderful job! We were so happy to find her and gained peace of mind knowing Hazel was being well cared for. Hazel can be timid around other dogs, but Liz was able to get her to warm up to her dogs and treated her like one of her own. We would definitely have Liz watch Hazel again.”
“Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I needed her the next day and was very accommodating to the short notice booking. She was flexible with the drop off and pick up times. needed her an additional night and she was also very accommodating with making that work. Communication was amazing, sent updates with pics. I can’t say enough good things- again, highly recommend.”
About: Having grown up with dogs my whole life, I have gained extensive hands-on experience and know exactly how to take good care of them. I love animals and enjoy taking them on long walks, playing with them, and ensuring they’re happy and healthy. I currently work part-time at Brekky’s coffee shop, where we always close in the afternoons. So, after 3:00 PM, I am always available to walk dogs. My schedule varies weekly — sometimes I work early mornings and can’t walk dogs beforehand, while other times I start later and have more free time. Because my schedule changes frequently, daily communication would work best for me. I’m very flexible and responsive when it comes to updating and managing those changes I have a fenced yard — it’s small but secure, perfect for dogs to play in. I live right behind Morningside University, which gives me access to many great places to walk dogs. I share a house with my boyfriend and roommates; we have separate rooms in the basement, providing plenty of space for dogs to stay overnight comfortably..
“Daisy was an excellent dog sitter for my pup for a week. She kept us updated with daily pics and answered all texts. She took him to the dog park and her home had a yard which he enjoyed playing in. Definitely will be looking forward to having her as a dog sitter again.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with our dog Gumbo. Her communication was awesome - sending many photos and videos. Super easy with drop off and pick up. I know she truly loved having our pup and loved him and cared for him as if he was hers. I can’t recommend her enough. Will 100% rebook.”
About: I love animals as if they are my own kids. I can promise you that your pet/pets will be safe with me and will love me. I work full time M-F but can fit schedule into mine. Let’s give it a go. If it doesn’t work I am sure we can figure something out. I don’t currently have pets of my own so I would have to use your kennel but I do have a big back yard. They will have fun.
About: I have trained and owned animals my whole life. I graduated with a veterinary assistant degree from western Iowa tech in Sioux city Iowa. Animals are my world and I love working and hanging out with them daily. I own a dog and 2 cats and love to cuddle them and train them so they can become and live their best life possible. I can give all my animals baths, exercise, positive reinforcement and love anytime they need it. I have a huge back yard and love to play with them outside too.
“Samantha made everything wonderful for our dog, Stanley, while we were away. She sent messages and pictures to keep me updated on how things were going. I would highly recommend Samantha as a dog sitter!!”
About: I treat all animals as if they’re my own and have a undeniable love for dogs as I am a proud fur mom to my dog vander. I work early in the day and have lots of spare time in the evening to help out with walking and checking in on animals I care for animals in my home by making them feel as if it’s a second home for them. I play catch with tennis balls in my backyard and cuddle on the couch and watch movies
“Brianna was so great with our girl! Raina tends to be timid at first but Brianna gave her time to warm up and was great about updating us on how Raina was doing with lots of pictures. We will definitely be using Brianna again in the future!”
“Our dog had a great very with Jennifer. She was very warm to both our pup and us, and assured us that he would be well taken care of. We met her pets (1 dog, 2 cats) before we booked and felt comfortable that our boy was in good hands. Jen was great about communicating every day we were gone. Our dog clearly had a good time and came back to us healthy and happy.”

“I couldn't be happier with my experience using Rover! My sitter was incredibly kind, professional, and provided regular updates with pictures of my pup. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. When I returned, she was happy, well-cared for, and had clearly been treated like family. I highly recommend Rover to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet care!"”
