House Sitting in Garton West, Des Moines, IA

“Nancy came to meet with us twice before we left for vacation to meet our animals and become familiar with our home. She is thoughtful, caring, and dependable. Nancy gave us peace of mind while we were out of the country and cared for our animals and home better than we could have ever imagined possible with being our first time using Rover. Thank you so much!”

“Jessica worked for me when I had a boarding business in Iowa. She was fantastic with the dogs, keep a clean space, and was always on time. She moved and I lost a great asset. I hope you find the greatness I did with your pet(s)!”

“I am definitely a helicopter parent when it comes to Pickles, but Javon was the best sitter ever. Can’t wait to have them back to hang out with our little cream puff.”

“Jessica is great! Our pup has separation anxiety and she goes above and beyond to make him happy while we are away. We will definitely be asking her to watch him again and I highly recommend her services.”

“We were blessed to have Shannon stay in our home for the first time this past week. She was great with sending regular updates on all of our fur babes, sent numerous photos & left our home in great shape! We will absolutely have Shannon back to hang with our crew! THANK YOU!”

“Calle was wonderful! Very prompt responses, very friendly, and my dogs seemed to love her. She took them on walks and made sure they were comfortable. Will definitely book with her again!”

“Ian was awesome with my 2 senior dogs. I was nervous to leave them with someone other than family for the first time and Ian was great. He came to meet the dogs in advance which helped to ease my concerns. I got pictures and updates daily and when I got home from vacation the dogs were happy and well cared for. I would definitely hire Ian again to care for my babies!”

“Andrea took fantastic care of my pug! He's older with some minor health issues, and she made sure to pay close attention to his necessary medications. She gave him plenty of love while I was gone and made sure he was well taken care of.”

“Wow – I can’t say enough good things about Pricilla! My husband and I have nicknamed her the Mary Poppins of Rover sitters. She cared for our two large dogs over the weekend and sent photos/video/updates at every meal, and various times throughout the days. She followed all my instructions and even went above and beyond what I’d expect from a Rover sitter. When I got home my house was spotless – cleaner than I left it! She gifted the boys some toys and treats and spent lots of time playing with them. She also came an hour earlier than I asked and stayed an hour later. And one other great story I have from her stay – she looked at the ingredients of the broth I bought to put over the boys kibble and let me know it contained onion – so she avoided using it, and advised me to get a different broth. So amazing – I would have never thought to look at that. Her attention to detail and level of service is unmatched. She’ll be my first call every time I’m in need of a sitter.”

“Rose is amazing! This was the first time using a pet sitting service and we chose Rose based on her reviews and she did not disappoint! It was important to us to have someone staying overnight with our dogs in the comfort of their own home. She gave regular updates and pictures. Took great care of our babies and the house looked amazing when we came home. We look forward to hiring Rose again next time! ❤️”

“Emily is a great pet sitter! She has taken care of both of my pups and my cat on multiple occasions. Her home is spacious with room for my pups to roam inside and out. She is dependable, kind, and very caring toward my pets.”

“Did a great job. Dog seemed happy and well taken care of. Responsive to messages.”

“Katya was amazing with our dog Mia. She is very dependable, always on time, and flexible with our schedule. We could not recommend her more!”

“Madi was fantastic! Wrigley is a high energy dog and he got daily trips to the dog park and even a trip to the pet store. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos. The house was spotless when we got home and Wrigley seemed very happy! This was our first time with a sitter and we were pretty nervous since our dog has separation anxiety, however with Madi here I don’t think he even realized we were gone. We’re already adding Madi to the calendar for next time, and would recommend them again and again!!!”

“Elizabeth is wonderful with dogs! She gets to know them individually and works with them to best suit their needs. My baby always gets excited to see her and Elizabeth always gives her reason to be excited! She is very respectful and responsible, and I trust her completely with my puppy.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to walk, feed and bathe and even style their pets! Not only did I take care of others but I have my very own fur baby that I’ve been taking care of since I was a kid. I’m currently a part-time college student, a dog groomer, content creator and an aspiring entrepreneur to open my own business one day. I love to stay busy and active so your pup will get plenty of energy with me! I love to work out routinely and it’s so much more fun with dogs at my side! I am available all week and weekends just shoot me a text to let me know ahead of time, what’s your schedule, etc. I have a fenced yard and I have a dog of my own to keep your fur baby accompanied! I can crate my dog or yours if needed. I love all dogs as they are my own. It’s in my religion that animals are most sacred, so you can trust your pet is in good hands! I’m not greedy, not in this for the money, I’m willing to negotiate prices, whatever’s easier for you and to make your life more peaceful. Seriously! I do not mind! :)

“Thank you Natasha for taking such good care of our crew! We never worry while we are gone as Winifred always has such a good time and doesn't miss us at all, she has too much fun with Natasha!”

“Stephanie was great! We had our last sitter cancel last minute and she was able to help us with very short notice. She was very accommodating and sent lots of updates and pictures.”

“A big thank you to Megan for taking care of our senior dog and cat! I appreciated knowing she was here while we were away, keeping an eye on them and everything at our house! I also enjoyed the frequent photos she sent. She washed the bed sheets before our return, which was a huge plus after being away 6 nights! A very positive experience, for sure!”

“She was great! Able to take care of our puppy and kept her company on our late night out. She was flexible and we reached out last minute and she was able! We appreciate the care she took and all the photos she sent. We didn't have to worry about evii at all.”
