“Megan kept open communication about every aspect of our puppies. The meet and greet went so well, we knew we’d feel comfortable leaving our babies with her! I can’t wait to book with her again.”
About: I've grown up around two cats (short hair male and long hair female), birds (parakeets), and leopard geckos (one male one female). I have dogsat a variety of sizes (including a female husky) and did some dog walking a few years ago (a pit bull female) I currently work less than full time and go to college less than full time so I have a fairly open and flexible schedule, to make it slightly easier with planning I work I would be available everyday besides Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am flexible in availability and can follow any special instructions you may have about your pets specific needs, even weird quirky routines they may have! I am very adaptable and more than willing to stay with you pets or animals at your home or just drop in and check on them when needed!
“Alexys was wonderful with my cat, Ginger. Her drop in visits were right on time and she did everything I asked of her perfectly. Ginger is a very independent cat and can be a bit standoffish but she warmed up a bit during the first visits with Alexys, and I believe they will become good friends over time. I definitely hope to book her again soon!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. My family dogs were small breed and now I have 2 large breeds and a cat. My dogs are both senior dogs and one gets medications twice daily. Nothing makes me feel better than seeing happy ears and happy tails. I’m here for the ones that just need company or the ones who need a break from being inside. I’m currently not working and I am studying for exams so I have open availability for the time being. I’m open to early mornings or late nights. Pets are their own individual beings and it’s important to care for each as they need and not fall into the collective mindset. I gain clues from being with the animal and always start slow and cautious to gain their trust. I always make sure pets are cared for, clean, and happy as can be.
“Very reasonable prices and very responsible. She listened to and followed all of my directions carefully. She even rescued my cat, who had gotten himself locked in our office as we were leaving. I had zero issues and would have no problem hiring her again.”
“Frances was a great sitter for our dogs! She was willing to do multiple meet and greets beforehand and was super flexible when there was a miscommunication! She also did medication for two of our dogs, and gave us updates whenever she could. We would definitely ask Frances to watch our dogs again!”
About: Pet Care Experience: More Than Just a Sitter I've been a passionate dog enthusiast and reliable caregiver for over 15 years, I’ve been around dogs my whole life. My experience isn't just about feeding and walking; it's about providing genuine companionship and a fun, safe environment. I regularly handle all aspects of routine care, including medication administration, maintaining strict feeding schedules, and enforcing positive reinforcement training that owners already have in place. Whether it's a calm cuddle session or a high-energy adventure, I tailor my approach to meet your dog's unique needs and personality. What Sets Me Apart: A Focus on Connection and Safety While many sitters offer basic care, I believe your pet deserves a partner who is attentive, active, and highly informed. What makes me different is my combination of energetic engagement and deep understanding of canine behavior: My patience and understanding of dog body language mean I can spot subtle signs of stress, discomfort, or over-excitement before they become an issue. This ensures a low-stress, enjoyable experience for your pet and allows me to introduce toys and activities that they genuinely love. Safety is My #1 Priority: Beyond basic supervision, I focus on proactive safety. This includes double-checking gates, being aware of environmental hazards, and using proper leash handling techniques, especially around traffic or unfamiliar dogs. I am constantly vigilant so you never have to worry. The Ultimate Playmate: I bring genuine, playful energy to every session. I'm not afraid to get on the floor for a game of tug-of-war or dedicate time to an extensive walk and play session to ensure your dog is physically and mentally satisfied by the end of the day. A tired dog is a happy and well-behaved dog! Pet care isn't just a side job; it's a valued part of my established routine, which means consistent and dedicated care for your dog. As a college student, I am available on different hours each day during the week. My family works with me to allow dogs potty breaks, play time and love while I am in class. Weekly Availability I am generally available for drop-ins, and house-sitting during the following times: Monday: Available before 8:30 am and after 12:30pm. Tuesday: available before 9:30am and after 3:30pm. Wednesday: available before 8:30am and after 3:30pm. Thursday: available before 9:30am and after 6:30pm. Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays: I offer flexible, full-day availability for house-sitting and extended services. What to expect: Walks and playtime that breaks up your dog's afternoon after you've left for work. Dedicated, unhurried attention. Between me and my family your dog gets full focus and energy. Please reach out with your specific needs! I'm happy to discuss how my schedule and reliable availability can best support your pet's routine. When your dog stays with us, they become a member of the family. My home is set up to be a safe, clean, and low-stress environment where your pet can relax and thrive. Security and Supervision During the Day I want to be upfront about my schedule so you can be confident in the care I provide: Supervision: Guests are not 100% supervised throughout the day. My kids and I are at school for some time during the week (Monday through Thursday), I am away for a several hours at a time during the school day. My teenagers get home before I do and are responsible enought to play and give out potty breaks for your dogs. Security During Alone Time: Before I leave, all dogs are securely placed in a safe, dog-proofed area or kennel (based on your dog's preference) with fresh water and comfortable bedding. Doggie Door Access: For reliable house-trained dogs, we have a doggie door available that provides continuous, secure access to our fenced yard for potty breaks while I am away. This is a great feature for independent dogs who enjoy frequent outdoor access. My Resident Dog: A Friendly Host I share my home with Kilo, a friendly Irish Wolfhound Poodle Mix (a Wolfadoodle!) who genuinely loves having canine company! We actively encourage supervised, positive play sessions in our secure yard. However, your dog's comfort is my priority: Managed Socialization: Introductions are slow and monitored. If needed, I have the ability to easily separate my dog from guests using designated gates and areas, ensuring both dogs have their own peaceful space for meals, rest, or if a break is needed. The Home Environment Secure Fenced Yard: I have a wooden and welded wire fenced yard for safe, contained playtime and bathroom breaks. All gates are double-checked before outdoor sessions. Structure and Comfort: I maintain a consistent daily schedule (feeding times, walk schedules, and potty breaks) closely aligned with your dog's routine to minimize anxiety. I provide comfortable, dedicated sleeping areas for rest. Daily Updates: Trust is built on communication. You will receive regular photo or video updates daily so you can see your happy dog enjoying their stay, if desired. My goal is to make your dog feel safe and loved, ensuring you have complete peace of mind while you are away.
“They were awesome! Our poor dog was stressed out over the 4th of July holiday and they went above and beyond to make continuous check ins to ensure our pup was doing good. Would recommend 10/10 times.”

About: I’ve never once lived without a dog in my life, so being around them has always felt natural to me 🐾 I’ve been completely obsessed with dogs for as long as I can remember, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who just want company and cuddles. I’m also a starting dog groomer, so I’m learning more every day about dog care, behavior, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always treat your dog like they’re my own: loved, spoiled, and in good hands. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, company while you’re away, or extra patience and care, I’m happy to help! My schedule is pretty flexible! I currently work Tuesday through Friday, but I usually get off around 4 PM, so I’m available for evening walks, check-ins, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of attention afterward 🐾 I’m also free most weekends and can be available for longer visits or multiple drop-ins throughout the day.

I’d be a great fit because I can offer a really safe, comfortable, and flexible environment for your dog. I have a fully fenced backyard, so they’ll have space to run around and play securely if they’re staying here. I also have other friendly dogs, which can be great for social pups who love company and playtime. If your dog needs structure or a calmer setup, I’m also able to crate them when needed so they can relax and feel secure. On top of that, I’m comfortable with different routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, or just hanging out and giving them attention.
About: I have been with animals my whole life. Though not certified, I have trained dogs to heard cows. I’ve also helped them with extreme behavioral issues. I love understanding a dog’s body language. To out it simply I know how to act around most dogs. I have also helped my family take care of puppies! I work a job at a day care center Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. I am able to let dogs out for a quick potty break around 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM. I may leave for an hour or two during the weekend to meet up with my family, but never more than that if I am house sitting. I do my best to not only respect and love the animals of the home, but also your home itself. I will do my best to keep everything clean and leave it the way I found it. I am more than happy to meet an odd or long requests and instructions if they are written down for me!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Iona
Anna is always so wonderful to us and our babies! She is always available to work with us and our schedule, and is so kind and patient with our elderly dog who can be a very ornery girl. I cannot express how much I appreciate her caring for our babies when we have to leave town. Leaving my dogs and cats is always stressful, but I have much more peace of mind knowing that someone who genuinely cares for my babies is checking on them for me 💕

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Iona choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Iona with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
