“Everything went great! Drop off and pick up were super easy. She sent updates and pics over the weekend so I knew he was safe and happy. We highly recommend Holly and will definitely be using her again for our little fuzzball”

“Cynthia 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!”

“Wow, that’s all I can say. We were in a tough situation as we were traveling from Texas to Minnesota and Wayne got so sick. He had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital. Evan was there early in the morning to pick the dogs up, in fact, the whole family was there. They sent pictures they sent updates. .as we did not know how many days of Rover we needed. They were completely flexible with us and each day when I text and say I need one more day they were very amenable to that. They prayed for Wayne , I think they still are. My dogs were relaxed and happy, not anxious at all. I believe they got the best care I could’ve found for CoCo and PoPee.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!”

I so appreciated the frequent updates, photos, and videos she sent, it made being away much easier. I'll definitely be recommending her to all the dog parents out there. Thank you so much, Shaelea! :)”

“Kevin watched our pug for six nights while we were in Hawaii and kept us updated with photos and fun stories. He made us feel super comfortable, leaving our furry family member. Kevin‘s dog Ricky is a big bonus. He’s a fun little guy and Sushi loved having a friend for the week. Can’t wait to book with Kevin again in the future highly recommend.!”

“When you choose Rover, please book with Elizabeth! She was nothing but amazing with our dog. Our Corgi was in her care for 5 days and 4 nights. Not once did I feel anxious about being away from him because she made us feel like family since the very beginning. I’ve read the reviews and have experienced first hand how much love she has for her clients. Your dog can expect a wonderful fenced in backyard, clean kennels, scheduled meal times, and lots of loves and playtime. I couldn’t be happier! We will definitely be booking with Elizabeth again!”

About: I have a basset hound, the most stubborn of them all. I am used to food thieves, and shenanigans! I have done canine hospice care and fostered senior dogs through a rescue shelter. I have also done pet sitting in my home, including a Doberman all last summer while his owner recovered from surgery. I meet your dog where they are, striving to stick to their routines no matter if in my house or in theirs. I am home a majority of the time to spend time with the dogs staying with me. It also gives me plenty of time to schedule house visits for cats or dogs. I strive to stick to your dog’s routine when staying at my place. If they sleep in the bed at night they can sleep in my bed, if they crate then we will crate. I have a dog and a cat that don’t mind sharing their space as long as they have their personal space.

“She was very nice and took great care of Sky during the six days we were away. She sent us pictures every day and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind. Sky seemed very happy and comfortable when we picked him up, and we didn’t have any issues during his stay. Everything went smoothly, and we would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take good care of their dog!”

“It 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!!”

“Buster enjoyed another wonderful overnight at Meghan’s— or what we have started calling his “vacation home,” because he gets so much love and attention! Meghan is an excellent communicator, a wonderful dog-caretaker, and a top-notch photo-sender. She is our go-to, and we are incredibly grateful for her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Hanley 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 Hanley.

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.

You and your Hanley 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.
