“Sarah is wonderful! She asked questions & was attentive to my detailed communication. She is conscientious. She was sensitive to my feelings about being away from Sargent & sent pictures & communicated throughout the weekend. This eased my separation anxiety, allowing me to enjoy my time away. She was active with Sargent, which is what he needs. When we got home from our weekend, he slept most of the evening. A tired dog is a happy dog. Sarah has a genuine love of animals & it shows in her care of them.”



“Daisy did an amazing job checking in on Violet while I was away. She took time to meet Violet ahead of time. Sent me lots of pictures her and spent extra time with her when she could tell that she was anxious because of an event happening outside. Definitely will use her again.”


About: I love dogs! I have two precious pups of my own - a 9 year old Border Heeler, and a 3 year old Pit Bull Mix. They are my favorite part of the day... they are good around other dogs. I love working with and caring for animals. Dogs equal happiness to me. There is no problem a dog’s love can’t solve! My pups and I enjoy long walks or hikes. We also enjoy playing outside and learning new tricks. When we lounge around the house we make frequent stops at the toy and treats bins. I am the girl who greets the dog before I greet the owner. I will love your fur babies as if they were my own! I am a teacher so my availability is nights, weekends, and summers. Let me know what works best for you and I’ll do my best to accommodate it! I have a fenced in backyard and other dogs for your pup to play with. I will make sure your dog is comfortable and safe at my house.

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..

About: Hi!!! I’m a Freshman College student looking for something to do in my spare time. I have many animals of my own and have have plenty of experience raising and training animals. I always say that I get along with animals better than humans but who knows lol :) I personally have two wonderful cats and a very old lab that I spend more than half my day with. Every morning I make sure they have food and water and while I may not have an extensive food routine for them they do get their occasional healthy meal every so often so that they don’t only get dry food. I have a fenced yard and two indoor cats. I don’t personally use a crate but I can easily stick to that routine if needed

About: I've never met a dog that doesn't end liking me. I usually take care of my sisters dogs when needed vet trips and all goodies I'm currently working part time twice a week until the end of September. My schedule is very flexible, when you need me just call me We go for walks I'll have them on leash, play with them in your yard always having an eye on them, water and feed them

About: I can walk, feed, bathe, and play with dogs. I have taught my dogs how to sit. I love animals and taking care of them. I will give them the best care possible! I’m currently working part-time so my hours are very open. I’m a student here at USD staying over the summer. My dogs live in Arkansas with my parents and I miss them a lot. A few minutes with your animals will bring me happiness! I live in an apartment with no other animals but my lease doesn’t allow animals. I can easily go to your house and pet sit/walk. I have a leash and treats as well!


“Amanda was awesome!!! Honey thoroughly enjoyed her company while I was away and will definitely be hiring Amanda in the future. Even when there was a snow storm, she evaluated the situation and decided on the best coarse of action. 10/10”


About: As of right now I am working full time at Morningside Family Healthcare but I LOVE animals.. I am looking to grow my clientele so that I can be doing this FULL TIME. I am looking for repeat clients as well as weekly clients. Anything and everything you need from potty breaks. To walking them (not when it’s cold as Antarctica out) but I am willing to hang out with them and play! Currently pet care is my everyday job! I wouldn’t call it as much of a job because I love to do it. I want to help and hang out with them as much as you need me to! I respect everything in the house, if dog/cat makes a mess.. i will clean it up. You need me to help around the house, i ca. i used to clean houses.. i will leave your house in same condition or better when you come back home to your safe place!

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.

About: I am great with dogs. I absolutely love them and will keep them occupied and above all, happy. Trips to the off leash dog park happen often and snuggles are always appreciated. I love to run, play fetch, give belly rubs and teach new tricks. I will make sure each of your pups gets real one on one time and maybe learn a new trick to impress mom/dad!! I hope you contact me to take care of precious pups while you have to be away from them. I’m very excited to meet them! I currently work part time so I will have plenty of time for your pups! My schedule at work changes weekly so scheduling may be a couple hours off. A weeks notice is best to ensure prompt service. I have a very easy going attitude. I am calm and alert. Your pets 100% care is of the utmost importance to me. Potty breaks happen immediately upon arrival and love, play, and attention is never held back. I hope to become a great friend to your pet and they will be eager to see me again!

Benjamin C.
“Ben is awesome!! He watched my dogs (and cat) for a weekend. Both of my dogs are rescues, and one can be a bit skiddish and scared. Ben was so great with her!!! He has a special gift with doggies and wasn’t intimidated or worried about my dogs. He sent picture updates. I also wrote out specific details for my dogs’ care, and he did awesome with that as well. My dogs have their routine, so it was great having someone watch them and take care of their needs. I’d recommend him.”

I highly recommend Rover to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet care!"”
