“Jenny was amazing with our 6-month-old golden retriever, Winnie! Our puppy has tons of energy, and Jenny handled her with so much patience and care. Winnie had an absolute blast playing with Jenny’s dog, Remy; they were the perfect duo! We got plenty of photo updates and could tell Winnie was having the best time. We felt totally at ease knowing she was in such great hands. Highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”

“They were very good to communicate with. They were very good with my dogs. They sent me photos to let me know how my dogs were doing just super easy to get a hold of and my dogs really enjoyed being there and wasn’t cooped up the whole time and they made sure to watch my dogs carefully and kept them busy so they didn’t get depressed”

“Lindsay was terrific. Jason immediately felt comfortable in her home, climbing up on the coach and rolling around happily. She did a great job providing food and snuggles and walks.”

“Kaylee and Nick were fantastic. Our pups were well taken care of and wore out when I picked them up. They communicated with me throughout the week and even sent a couple pics. Highly recommend and we will for sure be back.”
“Bethany was great! I never like to leave my pup with someone else but Bethany sent me pictures and videos everyday. She reassured me he was having a great time playing with her dogs and getting lots of attention. I would highly recommend her and will definitely stay with her next time!”


“Deirdre was absolutely amazing. She sent many pictures and updates. After meeting her I felt completely comfortable and at ease leaving my Fur baby with her. Definitely recommend working with her!”

“Jennifer was A++! This was the first time leaving our pup as he's only 6 months old. She sent us daily updates of him, videos of him playing with her dog, and he came home tired. We didn't worry about our pup for one minute while we were away. We would definitely book her again to care for our little Rowdy ❤️ Can't thank her enough for taking such good care of him!”

“Angie is such a quality caregiver. She truly enjoys welcoming her pet visitors and they love her back. My dog has a great time interacting with other dogs during her visit and always leaves happy.”

“Tyler did a fantastic job! Jason had a blast supervising workouts and taking naps on couches. Tyler even helped Jason stay calm during a stormy evening. I will definitely use Tyler again.”


“I don't even know where to begin! This was the absolute best discovery for myself and Sammy Sue. Everything about Nicole's care was top notch. My dog has never come home so well adjusted and behaved from me being gone. Her fenced in back yard was an absolute life saver and Nicole's loving nature made Sammy feel right at home instantly. If you want your pet to receive %100 loving care while you are away then this is the place to take them! 5 stars all the way!!!!!!! We will be back for sure, as I will never board my baby girl again! So glad we found you Nicole!!!”

About: I have been involved in caretaking pets through Rover, my private pet sitting business, and through local pet shelters over the course of three years. I have also pet sat for friends and relatives. I am very passionate about the well-being of all animals and have even received training at pet shelters in order to provide optimal care. I have a part time job but can easily provide pet sitting services. My job requires me to work 8 hour shifts two to three times per week. If my work schedule ever interferes with a scheduled visit, I offer additional visits that day free of charge. I love incorporating pet caretaking into my day to day life. It is a big priority for me. I want to care for the pets based on their individual needs. I am here to help you keep them moving and healthy while you are traveling or busy with other important things. I’m very flexible and willing to help however best fits your unique situation.
“Chelsey was a fantastic caretaker for Hawkeye while we were out of town! He loved her fenced in yard and all the walks she took him on. I loved that she sent photos and updates while we were away. She has a lovely home with a nice, fenced in backyard. We will definitely ask Chelsey to take care of our boy again!!”


“Eric was great with our girls! They were so happy and had such a good time while we were gone! Also 10 stars for his flexibility for drop off/pick up! It was a huge help when our flights were delayed coming back home! Will definitely be a repeating client!”

“Adriana definitely eased our minds while we were away on vacation! Not only did Adriana care for our family 😻 pet we all love very much, but she also “looked after” the outdoor neighborhood “pets” that sometimes eat & stay in the makeshift “house” built to help them stay as warm as possible during these winter months!! She also went above & beyond doing some light housework inside & outside!”


About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life and I love them all! I have taken care of dogs and cats in my family as well as animals of family friends. I am looking for a job for the summer and love animals, so this job would be a great fit. My summer schedule is very open so I can give lots of attention to your pets. My family has a Saint Bernard, so I know what it is like to handle big dogs if needed. I can stay in your home or just drop in for bathroom and play time! I will give your furry friends lots of love and attention.
“Rachel was great about giving me updates, sending pictures, and video. Overall communication was excellent. Our dog looked like he was at ease and enjoying his time with Rachel and her family. We will definitely book with Rachel and her family in the future.”


About: I grew up on a small farm with dogs being part of my life since birth. I have had some classes in dog training and take care of my parents dogs on the routine.

While you are at work your lovable animals can get their much needed walks and attention. Additional details upon request. I have plenty of space and a small yard.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Dike on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 50 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Dike. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Dike 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 Dike.
Tip: 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 Dike 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.
