“We had a fantastic experience with our Rover sitter, Mallory! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we really appreciated the frequent updates, photos, and messages while we were away. It was clear that our dog was receiving lots of attention, care, and affection. The biggest compliment we can give is that our dog came home calm, relaxed, and happy, a sure sign that he felt comfortable and well cared for during his stay. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Mallory again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter.”
“We had the most pleasant experience! This was our first time ever using Rover, and they made it such a positive one. They kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that our dogs were receiving lots of love and attention! We honestly felt like they were being spoiled the entire time! They truly went above and beyond for our pups and treated them as if they were their own. Their care, communication, and kindness made all the difference, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend them and would absolutely trust them with our dogs again. ❤️🐾”
“Roger is fantastic with our dog, Zeke, and he always looks forward to staying with Roger. He never fails to send daily pictures and updates. Roger is definitely a family favorite!”
“Jill and her family took good care of Stella while we were gone for 2 weeks. This is the 2nd time Stella has stayed with Jill and her family. She was so excited to stay and play with the family. Jill sent pictures and told us how Stella was doing. We will use Jill and her loving family again.”
“My baby travels with me 98% of the time, he has frequent flyer miles! I am not blind, he's a spoiled (I hand feed him) only child (lives to be held, and needs attention). So when I had to leave him for 48 hours with someone I did not know, I was a little anxious, Amber really put my mind at ease within a few hours. She sent update pictures (which I loved the proof of life) of him chilling, sleeping and begging for treats. Then showed him getting some male bonding time with her husband. She kept me up to date on how Gizmo was eating and how he was acting. When I picked Gizmo up he was tired (in a good way) and I could tell he was well taken care of. He wasn't shaking from trauma, he was happy to see me, but content in this home. I will definitely use her again.”
“Absolutely top-notch care for our two little Schnauzers who had only stayed away from us once in their lives! They walked them, played with them, took them to the dog park and even bathed them! We forgot their treats and they supplied them some!”
“Justine and Justin took great care of my girl while I was gone. I received multiple daily pictures and updates. I could tell she had a great time with them and their fur babies ❤️ Will definitely be back!”
“She did an excellent job keeping me informed about Lulu. Lulu decided to be a bit difficult and Ashley handled it perfectly! . Lulu has never stayed with someone not family but I felt comfortable and happy knowing she was with people who would give her lots of love and attention. Highly recommended and would stay with again”
“Amanda and Rachel always take such good care of Pepper! She even came back with a paw print/nose print ornament. She loves going to boarding with Amanda, Rachel, & their family.”
“Alexis did an amazing job watching my doggo for me over the weekend while I was out of town! She sent multiple updates daily which included pictures of my dog having a great time:) I never had any doubts as to his safety and wellbeing. If you need your dog boarded I cannot recommend Alexis enough!”
“We had an awesome experience with Allyson. She is a true animal lover and treated our dog like she was her own. She was great with daily communication and sent lots of cute pictures. Definitely recommend Allyson.”
“Milo had the very best time this week! He was cared for so well and has been missing Maya very much since he came back home. We can't recommend Jessica and Robert enough and look forward to using their services again the next time we go out of town!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Jaclyn. She not only helped us out in a last minute emergency, but our dog was welcomed with open arms as if she was her own. She also sent sweet pictures and updates throughout the timeframe she watched her. 10000% I would recommend her to anyone. She really is the best!”
“Ryne was a wonderful caretaker for our pups! Great place for them to stay where they have their own room but can go outside as needed. On sunny days, Ryne put their dog beds outside so they could enjoy the sunshine. We greatly appreciated the extra care of making sure my anxious sighthound would eat. I knew the dogs weren't stressed when I picked them up after their stay and it was the easiest hand off yet. Thanks Ryne!!”
“Jennifer and her beautiful family were amazing with Mylow! She provided daily updates and pictures while we were on vacation. Her family loved on our dog like he was their own. Pick up and drop off were seamless and you could genuinely see and feel Jennifer’s love for animals. Mylow came home one happy dog. We will definitely use Jennifer in the future. Thanks again Jennifer! 💜”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Crescent 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 Crescent.
<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 Crescent 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.
