Cory is matter-of-fact, flexible, and a good energy for our hyper lab mix. We were able to schedule an additional walk during our vacation which we really appreciated. We received updates each time he stopped by. Big fan!

Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!

Cats and dogs are definitely Dawn’s specialty when it comes to pet-sitting duties. Our family left the country for a week and we had no doubt that our pets would be cleaned up after, walked, fed properly, and given the same structure we practice while we were gone. She also stayed in our home which was perfectly tidy when we returned home from vacation. Her communication and organization were both very appreciated.

I wish I could give even more of a tip (rover won't let me give more than 30%), but Monica did an amazing job today. My dog had an accident in the house and she cleaned it up even though she didn't have to. Words cannot describe how awesome Monica is. 12/10 would recommend to anyone.

Kevin is trusting, independent and takes direction well. If you ask him to help you out he’s always loyal and generous. We found him to go above and beyond expectations. .

Madison loves all animals. She is patient and caring. She currently takes care of our 3 dogs. She has had pets her entire life she understands what they need. She is the only one who can brush our Great pyrenees. She would be very helpful with caring for any pet.

About: Hi there! I’m a full-time professional based in Des Moines with a big heart for animals—especially dogs. I share my life with a lovable poodle who’s full of energy and joy. We spend a lot of time going on walks and playing fetch, so I understand the importance of keeping dogs active, happy, and loved. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s a walk, some playtime, or just good company, I’ll make sure your dog is well cared for and treated like family. I’m reliable, caring, and always ready to give pets the attention they deserve. I’d love the chance to care for your furry friend! I currently work full time in Des Moines at a retirement home. I am usually pretty flexible with my schedule and can fit anything in. I have one dog who enjoys going on walks as well as runs with me every day. He loves playing fetch and loves chasing after birds.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. Friends and family have relied on me for pet sitting whenever they are out of town. I currently work full-time Hybrid. I work from home Mondays and Fridays. During this time I can provide care specific to your pet and their needs. I can provide potty breaks every 0-2 hours at least. I have a giant fully fenced back yard and 2 friendly dogs. One dog prefers more to watch the other dogs play while the other dog loves to be in all the action!

About: Born and raised a dog lover! I’ve have 5 dogs throughout my life that I have loved so dearly. I’ve grown up taking care of my friend’s dogs in HS and college. I love to go on walks, so why not bring your pup with me! I unfortunately do not have my own dog at this time with my significant other, but I hope to get one soon! I am a teacher who is taking a small step back in education to focus on my health. I know your dogs will help me A LOT during this transition, and they will be under great care. I currently live in an apartment in Des Moines, so I am also available for drop-ins to ensure your pup is comfortable at home! I am willing to travel to different to parts of the metro to help you and your pup!
