âMeagan is amazing! Our dog always has a blast with her. Meagan is easy to communicate with and clearly cares very much for our dog. We will definitely ask her to help again.â
âAngela was the perfect choice for our little guy! She was so attentive, sending us pictures every day of our pup, and we felt that she genuinely treated Max as if he were her own. We felt so safe and comfortable with Max in her care and would be more than happy to use her services in the future!â
âCassandra was amazing with our girls! She kept us updated and sent pictures during their stay. We highly recommend her and weâll definitely be back! Thank you, Cassandra!!â
âErin, Chris and family took such great care of our Sadie when we were out of state for the holiday! They welcomed her as if she was part of the family! Our girl had so much fun playing with their dog in the backyard and even a couple of other dogs that were visiting at the same time. We appreciate all the love they provided and we will without question be back again soon! đâ
âCynthia took great care of our dog! She was kind, responsive and great to work with. We knew it would be tricky to get him to eat and she gave extra attention to make sure he did. We are so grateful!â

âChristopher been nothing but amazing with our pups. Heâs gone above and beyond what we expected and thatâs why he will always be our go to person. Heâs done an amazing job I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs a sitter to watch over ur precious loved oneâ
âIt was our dogs' first time staying with someone other than family, so we were a bit nervous at first... but upon meeting, we were immediately put at ease. Our dogs had a blast and were absolutely treated with the same love and snuggles our family gives. We loved the updates, and both dogs came home ready for a long nap from lots of playtime with their new friends. We are grateful and will definitely use Mackenzie and Anthony again!! Thank you, thank you!!â
âRoxy and her family took such good care of our dog Coco! They were easy to communicate with, and they kept us updated on his adventures. They have plenty of space in their fenced in yard. Coco really enjoyed his time with Roxy and her family!â
âOur lab, Yeller, has stayed with Steve and Tilaine twice during our summer vacation and he has a wonderful time in their home. They are loving and responsible and treat him like family. He loves playing in their fenced yard with the kids, laying in the sun on their deck, and all the attention he gets throughout his stay. When we dropped Yeller off for his second stay with them, about a year after the first one, he enthusiastically bolted from the car right up to Steve and immediately made himself at home again. They have also been flexible with our return time as our flight was delayed and accommodated an extension of the stay on short notice. Highly recommend this family for your dog sitting needs!â
âPatricia was amazing with Maxx! We met her before boarding, and right away I felt confident heâd be in good hands. While we were away, she sent regular updates and pictures, which was so reassuring. Iâd highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thanks again, Patricia!â
âColleen!! Thank you so much for taking excellent care of our furry kids for the long weekend. We appreciated all of the pictures and updates. We will gladly book again when we are in Iowa again đŤśđŤśâ
âJessica did an excellent job with little B and he came home happy and healthy. He canât settle down without his dog bed, so we were glad we could leave it with him. We also brought his food and water bowl. Jessica was professional, competent, and caring. Five star rating, for sure! We will definitely use her again.â
About: Hello! My name is Bobby and I have one German Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix named Keoni. Before Keoni, I have cared for dogs of friends and relatives' while they are away. Over the years of taking care of dogs, I realized I have a knack for interacting with them. I love spending time with all types of dogs, even the most energetic ones! As a herding dog owner myself, I know how important it is to get their energy out, so your home is not completely destroyed! Keoni and I have joined a frisbee league with one another and enjoy staying active ourselves throughout the week. I will take your dogs on runs, play fetch with them, or engage in whatever activity they are interested in. My full-time job is Hybrid, and work both in an office and at home. My schedule can vary throughout the week with meetings, where I will have to travel to, however with enough notice, my schedule can be very flexible if a pet needs additional attention. I currently live in a one bedroom apartment but will have plenty of room to care for an extra dog. At my apartment complex, there is a dog park area provided for tenants that I am able to bring dogs to for exercise.
âMaricela 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!â
âAlicia and her family did a superb job in caring for Levi while I was out of town. He received lots of love and personal attention, played in their backyard and was taken on walks. Levi had a terrific time at Alicia's house. I would recommend Alicia to anyone.â

If you would like updates while youâre away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent youâd like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Green Castle can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs 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 dogâs 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 Green Castle 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 Green Castle.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs 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 Green Castle. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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 Green Castle sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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. Youâll 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.
