“Taylor was great! She sent lots of pictures and took Millie on a few walks a day which Millie loves. She also gave updates on how she playing with the other dogs that were there which puts our minds at ease.”

“Ruth is the best! She sent pictures everyday and treated our dog like it was hers. She took long walks and her fenced in backyard was perfect. We were gone for 10 days and we never had to worry about our dog….NEVER!”

“We just met Cassandra, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to care for our sweet 16-year-old three-legged pup during the four days we were away. Caring for a senior dog takes someone with a truly special heart, and Cassandra was exactly that. From our very first conversations, her thoughtful, responsive communication gave us complete confidence that we had chosen the right person. When we dropped Lily off, Cassandra had a calm, reassuring presence, that again, gave us complete peace of mind that Lily was in capable hands. Throughout the stay, we could tell Cassandra paid close attention to Lily’s unique needs and cared for her with the same love, compassion, and respect we do. It's clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes the responsibility of caring for them seriously. We are so grateful for the exceptional care Cassandra provided and wouldn't hesitate to trust her again with Lily. If you're looking for someone who is truly devoted to your pet's well-being, Cassandra is the perfect choice. We recommend her wholeheartedly!”

About: I've been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember! Training them, walking, feeding, bathing, and playing are all part of the package! I am almost available all the time. The only days I would unfortunately not be able to see your pets would be on Sunday's and sometime Saturday's for personal days. I am very patient and try to listen to what your pets tell me, but not TOO much! I will always try and make sure your pet has the best time and will be safe 😊

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their routine, and I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m reliable, attentive, and always treat every dog with care and patience. I maintain a very flexible routine and am home the majority of the day. I do volunteer a few hours daily, but I’m otherwise available to care for pets, provide attention, and keep them on their normal schedule. Dogs in my care will have a stable environment, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every dog in my care. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and kept in a clean, secure space where they can relax and feel at home.
About: I have been a pet owner since I was a child. Your pets will be treated with the same love and affection that I would treat my own! My goal is to keep your pet happy and stress-free! I am responsible, compassionate, and focused on creating a positive experience for everyone! If I stay in your home, I will do my very best to keep your pet on schedule while you are away! I will also keep your home clean and the same way you left it when you leave, so that you will come home to a fresh house after being away! I am retired and have flexibility to care for your pup or cat! I can come to your home for potty breaks, walks and play! Want me to hang out with your furry friend. I can do that too! I can also house sit and stay overnight if your pups are used to human connection! I understand wanting your animals to have all the comforts while you are away! I have owned dogs my whole life and understand how they are family to you! I adore all ages and breeds of dogs. Need help with meds and special care. I have patience for that as well! I can come to your home and we can work out a schedule that works for all! You tell me what you want that will put your mind at ease while you are away! I am retired and my schedule is flexible! If you choose to drop your pup at my home… I have two sweet Golden Retrievers. They both get along easily with all! If your pup is not their cup of tea… they will mind their own business! House training? I can help with that too! I have a large fenced in yard that the dogs can burn their energy in! If you want to keep your dog separated from mine, I have the ability to do that too!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
100% of sitters in Farley can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Farley 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 Farley.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Farley. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Farley 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
