Our dog and cat loved Aubri! It was so nice to leave for the weekend knowing they were so well taken care of! She sent us so many nice pictures and updates so we didn't have to worry at all! She went above and beyond to play with our dog and get his energy out. We will definitely be rebooking!!

About: I've pet/house sat for multiple people in the past. Animals include dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I like to have a meet and greet before ever staying with your pets alone. If you have any special diets or quirks make sure we discuss them in advance! I don't mind staying for a few hours to watch your animals or just drop in, whatever is needed! I have a nighttime job so, your animals will need to be able to be alone at night a few days of the week! I will discuss meal plan, how often you walk them/let them outside, and if they have meds with you prior to caring for your animals.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was 5 years old. I was raised on a farm, and now live on one myself I am a teacher, and I will keep my availability open as my schedule allows. I will always make sure my schedule is updated. I make sure that your pet is my priority when scheduling any other events. I love being able to help you out as a fellow pet-owner. I want this to be as stress-free as possible! I am taking a break from house sitting at the moment but still available for other services.

About: I love making sure animals feel comfortable and welcomed. I have dog sat for my family for many years. I grew up having animals all around me and I love them to death and could not picture life without them. Helping out is something I love to do for people and making things as easy as possible for everyone involved. Give me the chance to love your animal when it’s convenient for you and I promise they will come home to you just as you left them and they will be super loved while in my care. Pets are like family members and I will always treat them as if they were my own. I am very patient with shy animals and I’m passionate as well. I’d love to have the opportunity to work with your animals. I do this a a side job to earn money to help support my family. I have taken care of animals all my life seen as I grew up with them. So technically I do this daily but as far as customers pups I do it as needed. I never let a dog outside without a lease unless the yard is fenced. In my home the doors that lead to outside are always locked! I have my pups that would love to play and tire out your kiddo. If parents prefers the dog can be kenneled, and as always we will send pupdates to ease the parents minds!

Stephanie was kind, caring and professional. She took such great care of our Great Dane while we were out of town, we could never thank her enough. She was prompt and always spent the allotted time with our pup. Stephanie also always checked in and out and provided us with detailed updates. I would recommend her to anyone and will probably request her services again in the future!

About: Growing up, my family didn’t have pets, so I love my friends and family’s pets like they are my own! I am intentional and ask questions when learning from owners how to best interact with their pet(s). I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats, up to two of each at the same time. I prioritize playtime and being active with any pet I’m responsible for. I’m comfortable with both cats and dogs, and can adapt my skills and schedule based on their unique needs. My schedule is extremely flexible as I continue the job search post graduate school. I am able to support pet owners with short-term drop ins, frequent walks for high energy pets, and extended stays. I am available to care for pets in their own home. I aim to ease any stress by keeping their environment familiar and maintaining their usual schedule as much as possible.

Maya did an amazing job with our anxious pup. We unexpectedly had new neighbors move in above us the day before our trip. Maya did a great job at communicating how peanut was doing with the adjustment during the visits and provided lots of great photos as well.

Jess was such a great choice to watch my Sammy boy. We were gone from 5/22-6/1 and had no idea it was getting VERY warm here in Iowa. We did not yet have our window air conditioners in. At one point, it got to 85 in our house. I was able to have a neighbor install the window ac’s. Jess was concerned for Sam and offered to stop by to check on him (on a day that wasn’t originally on the calendar). I truly appreciate her doing that! We were in Florida and that helped eased my mind!! We’re already set up to have her take care of him later this summer. Thanks again Jess!

About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes small to extra large as well as cats and even some exotic pets. I have been the go to sitter for my friends and family every time they go on vacation. I love caring for animals and can’t wait to help you with yours. I am experienced with animals- puppies to elderly dogs, kittens to elderly cats. I homeschool my kids so I have a very flexible schedule and can work with what you need. I mostly have open afternoons and Friday through the weekend. While I’m taking care of your pet I will do all I can to assure they are taken care of physically as well as emotionally offering love, play and exercise, whatever it is they need that day. Every pet is different and I will work with you to ensure they are getting what they need from me, walks, pets or play.

About: Hi!!! My name is Kadyn and I’ve always had a genuine love for animals!! I feel the happiest when I’m caring for them:) I worked for two years at a local doggy daycare in waukee Iowa, where I gained lots of hands on experience supervising, playing with, taking care of, and ensuring safety of dogs of all sizes, ages and personalities. I have also been a dog sitter and walker for the past five years, building trusted relationships with both pets and their owners while providing dependable care, including administering medications and following detailed instructions to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved!!! I am a sophmore in college at the University of Iowa! So my schedule is pretty flexible during the week days between classes and I’m open most weekends! I care for them as if they were my own and I do my very best to make them feel comfortable and loved whether they are in my home or the clients!

About: I love dogs of all sizes and all ages!! I would love to care for your dogs when I am available. I have helped care for dogs outside of Rover for many years and have had a dog my whole life. I work from home so I have lots of availability! I do have children so sometimes that limits my availability if they cannot come with me. I can take your dogs for walks or let them out in fenced in areas! I am pretty easy going so will follow any specific instructions.

Rachel is amazing! Maybe a "cat whisperer?!" First time leaving my dog for more than 1 night. I loved the pics I got more than I expected! It eased my mind, so I could concentrate on my work trip duties. She gave great care & love to my 2 cats and 1 dog. Highly recommend! Good job, I will use again!
