About: My own furry family consists of 3 wolverines (chihuahuas), 1 pit/boxer mix, 3 horses, 2 cats and a gaggle of happy, laying hens. As a lover of ALL animals, you can trust your furry family members to my care. I currently work in healthcare, and I am very blessed to work three days per week, leaving me with abundant free time to enjoy the outdoors. With a wide variety of animals, caring for them is of utmost importance. I remain knowledgeable in animal behaviors, wound management, illnesses and preventative vet care.

About: I love my pets. People call me the pet whisper. Dogs amnd cats just walk up to me in a crowd and stare. I was once on an international flight and after we got our luggage the security dog came up to me and stare so they checked my luggage, purse and carry on and found nothing of course. I am a retired surgical technologist so I have a lot of free time. If I get a job and I don’t have another sitting job I take it. I just moved to Iowa last September and just joined Rover. When I was in Kansas all my clients where word of mouth. Dice I have live in Iowa I have travel back to Kansas to either cat or dog sit and house sit many times. I brush, feed and love on them. Administer medication if called for. I make sure there is nothing around that they shouldn’t chew on that is dangerous. Of course I take them on walks if the owner wants. Anything the owner ask me to do I

About: Just hopping back on here after a couple years and am ready to get back to it for any of your pet care needs. I’ve taken care of many different types of animals growing up on a farm. I have two australian shepherd and two cats myself all of which i’ve raised and trained from babies. I’m currently working morning so I have a pretty flexible schedule for drop in visits and all your pet sitting needs. I can be available at most times for walks, potty breaks and other pet needs I have a large fenced in yard and two dogs to provide plenty of playtime for your pets experience. I am also available for pet sitting in home

About: Experienced Pet Lover — From Small Animals to XXL Dogs 🐾 I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, and taking care of pets has always been a big part of my life. I raised my Great Dane from a puppy and have a huge heart for big dogs, puppies, and animals of all sizes. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own Great Dane, bunny rabbit, and cat, as well as pet-sat for other dogs and cats. I was also raised in a household with Siberian Huskies, so I’ve been around dogs and animals from a young age. I enjoy building a bond with every pet I care for and have experience with basic training as well. I taught my Great Dane commands such as sit, stay, spin, and shake. I also litter-box trained my bunny and taught my cat to sit for a treat. I’m comfortable caring for everything from small animals to XXL dogs, and I’m also open to caring for reptiles and other pets. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a gentle giant, a curious cat, or a smaller animal that needs extra attention, I’ll treat them with the same care, patience, and love I give my own pets. Your pets are family, and I’ll do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐶🐱🐰🦎❤️ I currently work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special care or attention your pet may need. There is always someone home, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I don’t currently have any pets of my own after losing my dog last October, and I’m looking forward to being able to share that love and companionship with other people’s pets. I’m also available for early morning and evening walks, as well as flexible care throughout the week. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I’m happy to care for pets in my home or in my client’s home, depending on the service needed. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I’m happy to take dogs out on a leash for regular potty breaks and walks. I also have space for a crate if your dog prefers having their own quiet space to relax. There are currently no pets in my home, so your pet can have my full attention and won’t have to worry about sharing their space with other animals.

“Jessica is amazing. I had flight troubles and had to add trips. she covered for me without any problems and played with my pup even in sub freezing temps. If I have to go on a trip without my pup again I will be calling Jessica right up”

“Simply the best! Vanessa went above and beyond to make sure the first time I ever needed a sitter was stress free for both my cat and myself. She updated me with pics, videos, and information about him using the potty and their activity time together. I booked with quite a late notice and she came in to save the day regardless! Highly recommend for exceptional care when needing to leave your furry friends at home.”

About: Prices are negotiable. I understand when having multiple dogs it racks up to a lot. I am willing to work with you on prices. I’ve had a dog since I was 8 years old. My love for dogs is never ending. I have been taking care of other peoples dogs since I was 19. I’m available to stay with your dog. I am not available to bring your dog to my house. I believe dogs do best in their own environment with all their toys and their own area. I currently work full time for a daycare in Polk City. I work 10hr days Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. On the weekends I like to take my sister’s dog for a walk unless I am watching someone else dog I will take that dog on a walk if able to. Majority of the dogs I watch stay at home because they know that area better. Anxiety is very common in dogs that get boarded or are away from home.

“Great meet and greet with Yasmin. Definitely a dog lover and our trio of pooches loved getting to know her. Will definitely keep her at the top of our Rover list!”

About: I have lots of experience working with dogs with Thyroid disorders, joint problems, hip problems, diabetes, and special diets. I'm very flexible. All you have to do is ask and we'll see. I've had Chocolate Labs, Chesapeake Bay Retrievers, Poodles, Terriers, and Shih Tzus. I love animals especially puppies and dogs. I am also willing to watch your cats if you also have them. I wanted to be a veterinarian or veterinary assistant but I didn't quite have the grades for it so that's why I decided to become a dog sitter, a dog walker, pet care taker, dog lover, and pet lover. I will take the best care of your pet and love it like my very own. Hope to hear from you soon. I'm available for house sitting on weekends and some week nights just ask me. Availability for pet care all week depending on the hours needed. I always accompany pets when they are outside even in a fenced in yard. I take short or long walks depending on what is requested.

“Sam is very knowledgeable about dog behavior and training. She was so good with my German shepherd and very reliable and trustworthy. So thankful to have had her, and sad we moved so we can’t use her anymore.”

About: I currently don't have any pets of my own. In February 2025, my family and I sadly said goodbye to our beloved dog, Buddy, after 17 wonderful years together. I miss him deeply-our walks, cuddles, and the unconditional companionship he brought to my life every day. While Buddy will always hold a special place in my heart, Rover provides a meaningful opportunity for both pet owners and me. I can help families by providing dependable, loving care for their dogs, while also continuing to spend time with the animals I've loved my entire life. Caring for dogs fills a void left by losing Buddy and allows me to do something that brings me genuine joy. I've been caring for dogs since I was six years old. Having had dogs throughout my life and now into my mid-fifties, I understand how important it is to find someone who provides compassionate, loving, and trustworthy care. I know the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for when you're away. I've been surrounded by dogs my entire life, including dachshunds, beagles, german shepards and mixed breeds like Buddy - who was a basset / black lab. Every dog I've had has been treated as a cherished member of the family, receiving endless love, patience, and care - and I would treat your dog the very same way. You'll notice there aren't many photos of me with Buddy - I was usually the one behind the camera capturing all of his adventures and favorite moments. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, comfortable, and happy while in my care, giving you complete peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby. Thanks for your consideration and the opportunity. Have a wonderful day. Because I work from home full-time, I can fit pet care into my daily schedule. I enjoy taking breaks for walks, outdoor time, playtime, and cuddles, which allows me to give dogs attention throughout the day. My flexible weekday and weekend availability means your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will receive compassionate, attentive care. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with easy access to sidewalks in quiet neighborhoods and nearby trails, providing plenty of opportunities for dogs to get exercise, explore, and enjoy time outdoors. Because I work from home full-time, I can provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Dogs in my care will always be supervised, walked on a leash, and given a calm, loving environment where they can feel secure and at home. Having cared for dogs my entire life, I understand the trust involved in leaving your pet with someone else, and I am committed to treating every dog as if they were my own—with patience, compassion, and attentive care.

“Great job!”

About: I am a veterinary student at ISU with experience pet sitting, caring for shelter animals, and clinical care.

I have school on weekdays, but I'm available for walks during the lunch hours from 11am - 1pm. I'm also available after 5pm Monday - Friday and have full availability on weekends. Your pet's comfort is my number one concern so I have no problem coming to you or taking your pet to their favorite park.

My dog has a vestibular issue, so I'm experienced lifting pets to help them up and down stairs and getting into cars. I'm also experienced giving oral medication, clipping/shaving nails, and bathing.
