“Robbie & Family are the best sitters we’ve ever had. They go above and beyond in taking care of our Bolt. We will continue to book Robbie every chance we get!!”

“Jenevieve was a great sitter for our dogs. Leaving your little ones is very hard, but Jenevieve made everything so easy. I'll absolutely ask her again for our next trips and I highly recommend her great service. Thank you so much for watching Mila and Bruno.”

“Absolutely incredible! Constant communication, reassurance as I was weary & a super happy pup at pick up. I am pleased & so thankful for her help & kindness. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Kevin was absolutely wonderful with my sweet Terry. From the very first day, he kept in constant communication, sharing updates that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear that Terry was not just cared for, but genuinely loved and treated like family during the 9 days she stayed with him. I’m so grateful to have found Kevin through Rover, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust him with Terry again. Highly, highly recommended!”

“Right when we walked in Wilbur sniffed out the toys and bully sticks! Cynthia kept us updates with pictures and videos of Wilbur running around and playing in the yard all weekend.”

“Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!”

“Kim was great with our pup, Maggie. We felt so at ease with her having fun in a great environment while we were away. She clearly knows how to handle dogs of all kinds and her family takes great care. We will definitely use and recommend Kim again!!”

“Cassandra was very understanding and accommodating of our Doggo's anxiousness. She sent us great photos of his time with her and he seemed relaxed and content. Love to work with her again!”

“Meagan was amazing. She sent us pictures daily and made sure we knew right away when Iris injured herself. Iris is a high energy GSP so we were not surprised but Meagen kept an eye on her injury and updated us often as she healed. Iris loved her time spent with Meagen and we would use her again.”

“Melanie was amazing with my 2 dogs! She updated me everyday with pictures and their day in her home. My dogs seemed VERY happy and relaxed. I definitely will be booking her again when my job calls me to be out of state. It's such a relief to know that your precious kids are in good hands!”

“They have watched my dog multiple times now! I won’t go to anyone else but Erin and Chris to watch my fur baby! They take care of him like he is their own dog. My dog loves to be at their house! I get daily picture updates and it always looks like he is having the time of his life. He truly gets treated like a king at their house❤️. If you are deciding who to book with, book with Erin and Chris. I promise you won’t be disappointed🤗”


“Cory has been a fantastic companion dog sitter for us time and time again! He does well with Skip's anxiety and give him great attention and exercise to keep him comfortable when we travel!!”

“Andrea was one of a kind sitter. She took great care of our fuzzball, so well that we could enjoy our vacation without worries. She responded quickly to all our messages and sent us pictures. She went above and beyond to accomodate our delayed flight. So very sorry, Andrea. Will definitely book again when we are in the area. Highly recommend Andrea!”

“She is amazing! Got pictures and videos while on vacation. She actually cares about animals. Will definitely use her again and highly highly highly recommend using her!!!”

Fairground dog parents share their Rover experiences
Aly did such a great job with my two dogs. This is the first time they were left with someone other than family. She was great with communications and photos. I was nervous about leaving them for a week while on vacation out of state. I think both of them had a great time. We will definitely use her in the future.

Megan was absolutely incredible!! She accepted our request to watch Maverick last minute & was very accommodating. He loved running around her big yard & hanging out with her dogs. She sent lots of photo updates. Our dog has a lot of separation anxiety but he was perfectly great & happy with her. If you need someone in the Des Moines area, 10/10 couldn’t recommend enough!!✨
