6. Nia G.

“Nia did a fantastic job with our 4 girls! A few of them are higher energy so it can get pretty crazy at times, but she handled it all easily. She was super flexible and willing to work with us to make the whole process as convenient as possible. Highly recommend!”


7. Alisha J.
“Alisha took wonderful care of our 6 cats while we were away for almost 3 weeks. She was aware that I’m a nervous pet parent so she took the time to send me pictures and updates on our babies daily. It made me so comfortable knowing that someone who is as caring and thoughtful as she is was there. When we got back the litter boxes were in great shape and the house looked like no one had even been there. We plan to hire her again the next time we take an extended trip!”


8. Jessie H.

“Jessie was great! I contacted her last minute and she made such a great effort to accommodate us. Odys loved her and enjoyed having a friend to play with when she brought her dog, Marley. The house was in perfect condition when we returned and Odys was happy and healthy, ready to see us. We got regular updates with photos. We could tell Odys really had a great time and was well loved!”


9. Lydia R.
“Our dogs LOVE her, and she is very attentive and loving to our pups. She is prompt, flexible, friendly, has excellent communication and is overall a delight. I STRONGLY recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to walk or care for their fur babies.”

“Melanie was a wonderful dog sitter for my puppy, Nova! Nova seemed very happy and comfortable at her home. Melanie watched Nova overnight and she stayed in contact with me by sending updates and pictures. She even made Nova some healthy dog treats!

13. Joshua W.


“We have used Joshua 3 or 4 times he loves our dogs and makes them happy, and of course that makes us happy: they love him and because we keep booking him, their anxiety when we leave has gone way down. Joshua makes our lives easier because he takes such good care of our 4 legged boys.”


14. Kathryn N.
About: I've owned and cared for many different breeds and ages of dogs my whole life! I have a soft spot in my heart for animals and promise to take the best care of your fur babies! I am a full-time teacher from 7-2:30, but outside of my hours I am very flexible! I am also flexible most weekends and have my own transportation. In my years of working with animals, I remain vigilant and caring of your animals, as I know I would want the same for my animals at home!


15. Bradley H.

“Brad did an amazing job housesitting and caring for my little Doxiepoo Lodi! He kept in great communication while I was out of town, and even brought Lodi some treats! I never had to worry about the care of my dog while Brad was taking care of him. Took him on regular walks and breaks outside. Felt secure having someone at my home over the New Year Holiday. Please contact Brad for any of your Rover needs. He will go above and beyond and deliver fantastic results. Our family will be booking Brad for any future needs. Even though he lives about an hour from the Cedar Rapids area, if you have a need be will help you out! Thanks Brad! We are glad Lodi has a new friend.”


16. Grace S.
About: I have been around animals my entire life! I am always going to enjoy and love all kinds of animals. I love to go for walks with them I even take my cat;) your pet will be in good hands I currently work full time and I will have plenty of time to hang with your family. And if your fury animals are staying with me they would only be alone for a few hours! I currently have two cats and one dog! They are both spoiled with toys, treats, and food. I do make sure he gets outside and walks around when it is nice. We love going on walks and to the dog park!




17. Hannah K.

“Hannah was a hit with the dogs as soon as she arrived for her get-to-know meeting! I have 3 dogs ranging from 4lbs to 70lbs and she was so calm and patient with all of them while they were greeting her!! She sent pictures, responded quickly to any texts I sent and was so flexible when our trip was shortened. I definitely will be using her again AND feel very confident in referring her to friends.”


18. Kylie F.
“Kylie is so good with dogs she spoils them like no other. She treats them so well and loves on them like they’ve never got it before.”


19. Emma S.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10. I grew up with multiple cats to care for and have been a dog owner for 11 years. I have experience with puppies/kittens, as well as seniors who may have medical needs. I am also capable of handling high energy pets and households with multiples. I do work full-time (M-F) but have a flexible schedule. I have time in the mornings, and after 5 during the weekdays to care for your pets, and times during the day. Most weekends are very open. I know all pet parents have different rules/expectations, so I am open and happy to follow your lead on how you would need things done. I have a senior dog who is used to no crate, taking full advantage of the couches and beds :) and enjoys moderate length walks. I have had him since he was a puppy, so I am able to provide long walks, exercise time outside and crating if need be.


20. Isabella K.
“Isabella is a fun caring animal lover. I had the pleasure of working with her for two year and never had a bad experience, she’s a bubbly driven worker who does their best at anything she is assigned. She has not only worked with dogs she also has dog sat on the side and gained all trust from the dog and the clients she has worked for.”
