“Katrina was amazing! She sent so many updates. She treated our dog like family. He had so much fun playing with the other dogs visiting and was very worn out when he got home! Very trustworthy and great communication! Will definitely book again.”
“We had a wedding outside of town and didn’t want to leave our dog In the hotel for 10+ hours so we boarded him with Angela and her family. They are the best! Such nice people and did an amazing job with Winston. Got a few pictures and heard he had a great time. Highly recommend you use them whenever you have a need !”
“Im very happy with the care Joey received during his stay, Brooke gave Joey amazing care! I highly recommend Brooke and Brent. I’m so thankful to find someone I can trust. I will use them again!”
“Nicole and her family took excellent care of Teddy. Quick, easy communication and zero drama. Both drop-off and pick-up were smooth/seamless. Nicole sent pictures and updates daily. Teddy left Nicole’s home tired and happy. Many thanks to Nicole/kids/husband and resident pack for a lovely stay!”
“This was our first experience with a home stay and it was awesome in every way. Steve answered my questions and made drop off so easy. Nellie was immediately comfortable and I left knowing she was going to have a great experience. We got a couple of nice updates during the stay. We have already rebooked for another stay! I 100% recommend Steve and Tilaine. What a wonderful family. Thank you!”
“Tiffany was great with our 2 shih tzus. Fast response time from the beginning, provided multiple updates even though we were only away for about 24 hours. We really appreciated how attentive she was during the meet and greet - it helped us feel confident that the visit would be successful! Definitely looking forward to the dogs staying with her in the future.”
About: I have had a lot of experience with dogs over the years and am just getting started with pet sitting. My priority is providing a safe and caring home for your pup while they are in my care. I currently have a yellow lab mix who loves other dogs. I have some experience with high energy dogs, nervous dogs, giving medicines, and helping finicky dogs eat. I work full time, but have a flexible job that will allow me to let your dog out as needed. Our routine includes three walks a day so I will make sure your pup is exercised. I am home evenings to spend with your dog. Weekends are the best times for me to board and your pup will be sure to get a lovely walk or hike! I have a comfortable and dog friendly apartment and access to a fenced yard/private dog park to play in. My yellow lab will love to keep your dog company, play, or show your dog the best places to nap. I can be flexible with whatever care instructions you need.
“Absolutely one of the best experiences of having a dog sitter ever. Plenty of updates throughout his stay. She was so nice that I'm not sure he really wanted to come home.”
“Libby did an outstanding job as always with my dog and cat. She graciously cared for them for an entire two weeks while I was away. She is so warm, kind, and flexible. My dog can be clingy with me when I leave him behind but he remembered Libby and was so happy to see her that he forgot all about me and danced over to greet her, his face completely lighting up and covering her with kisses.. That says everything about her wonderful loving care! So grateful for Libby!”
“Amanda was so great with our pups! She was always keeping us in the loop with our pups and gave us such a peaceful trip knowing our pups were having such a great time with her and her family! Would definitely use her services again and recommend her to anyone!”
“Wendy is absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond to make our pups stay the best experience is could be. She exceeded our expectations and then some, we couldn't have been happier with our experience. We will definitely be using Wendy's services again in the future.”
About: I am a student at Iowa State University, eager to get some good puppy love. After moving from northern Illinois, I miss my family dogs dearly and want to help others with their dogs and give them the attention they deserve. Growing up, I had many dogs and cats, ranging from small to very large dogs. I am also experienced handling less friendly dogs, and am good at making connections with them. I’m currently working part time as a customer services representative at Iowa State’s Recreation Services and do research remotely in a lab at the university. I tend to be able to do early mornings or afternoons! My apartment is safe, secured by multiple locked doors and is regularly cleaned and uncluttered. At a clients house, I am sure to respect your pet’s way of life and the house rules as well.
“Kayla was a fantastic host for our dog. This was our first Rover experience and she made it a great one. Very responsive and answered any questions we had. Highly recommend her to anyone!”
“We absolutely loved having our Weimaraner, Hollis stay with Jacquelyn and her family! We felt so comfortable leaving her and Hollis enjoyed her time with them as well! There was never a doubt that she was safe and in excellent hands with them. We will definitely be rebooking with Jacquelyn every time we need to leave our Hollis.”

Katrina and her family were great! They watched our dog Lucy for about 4 days, and during our time was extremely communicative and accessible for photos or updates. She was also extremely flexible when our travel plans had to change due to flight problems during our trip. Felt like our dog was well cared for, and had a great time with her pups and family as well! We will be back for sure!
Tiffany was great with our 2 shih tzus. Fast response time from the beginning, provided multiple updates even though we were only away for about 24 hours. We really appreciated how attentive she was during the meet and greet - it helped us feel confident that the visit would be successful! Definitely looking forward to the dogs staying with her in the future.
