“I have booked with Jessica a few times now and recommend her to anyone looking for top notch care for their pet. This most recent time I did not realize that my pup had a broken nail before dropping her off and Jessica saw it right away, took her to the vet, and went above and beyond to care for her during her week long stay. Also, my flight back to Des Moines was extremely delayed and Jessica was super accommodating and understanding. Jessica is incredibly responsive and I trust her completely with my dog Iommi. Whether you need a daycare stay or extended stay, Jessica is the person to book with. Thank you so much again Jessica!”


“Thank you so much for such a great first time experience. We appreciate the daily updated and pictures. My Gandalf will definitely visit again in the future. Thanks again.”


“Lisa was a wonderful host to our two senior dogs. This was our first time using Rover and the dogs had a rough start adjusting (had multiple accidents in the home). Lisa was patient and was solution focused. She tried different methods to decrease their anxiety and provided us frequent updates on how they are doing. They definitely adapted with her help! One of our dogs is diabetic and Lisa helped us administer his medication injection as well.”


“Alice is a Frenchie whisperer! Seriously, if you have French Bulldogs, stop your search and book her NOW. She swooped in last-minute and saved the day, taking amazing care of our two boys for 5 nights!! They were absolutely spoiled (which we fully endorse!) and had a blast playing with her adorable Frenchie. It's like they went on a little Frenchie vacation! Alice is incredibly sweet and we could tell our pups adored her. We'll be booking her again!”


About: I have spent my entire life around animals, especially larger, older dogs. I am home full time while classes are online and am very flexible with sitting times. I am currently taking classes online for the summer, so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends! I tend to be busier on the weekends but if you give enough time in advance I am pretty flexible. I live in an apartment complex, and don't have a yard, so animals will have to be leashed when outside. I do not have a lot of space, so smaller animals are preferred, especially for longer stays.

“Cory and his family of pets really did well taking care of my puppy and when she got home she was tired and happy for twenty four hours straight. She seemed happy both at drop off and pick up times; a blessing for us indeed!”


“Another great visit with Christy and Ekram. I’ve never left my baby with someone else this long but they sent pictures and updates every day and made a huge effort to make sure she started eating again.”



“I am so glad I found Lucia to watch my puppy, Daisy! She sent regular updates throughout her stay. Daisy was well-loved and well-taken care of. Lucia was willing to meet with us ahead of time to make sure it was a good match. This is the first time I have left Daisy with someone other than family or a friend, and I was a little nervous. But, I can tell she was so well taken care of. There were a few other dogs there at the same time as Lucia (a couple are hers and the other was another Rover pup), which was heaven for my dog. She returned home better-behaved and even sweeter than when I left her. We will definitely use Lucia again and would recommend her to anyone.”



“Evan and his family were so great to work with before and during our trip! They cared so well for our pups which allowed us to really enjoy our time away. We appreciated the pictures we received throughout the week that showed us how much fun they were having. We highly recommend Evan!”


“Shaelea is great to work with. She has watched my dog twice now. She is very friendly and a great communicator. She accepted my fairly last-minute request, which was so helpful. I highly recommend her to others.”


“She was very accommodating and great communication. We had just one of our pups with her and If we are ever back in the area we would feel very comfortable leaving our pups with her. Great yard and relaxed area. If you are looking for a person in this area you will not be disappointed.”


“Awesome experience! I was nervous about leaving my dog with someone outside of family for the first time, especially for an extended period. Mackenzie and Anthony did a fantastic job keeping us updated, sending lots of pictures and videos while we were away. They're genuine, dog-loving people who truly want your pup to have a great time in your absence. Highly recommend!”



“We came to Iowa for a wedding. Cory took good care of our 2 senior dogs (labs). One has separation anxiety that he was able to comfort and the other took a nap on his bed. He walked and fed them.”


“Kevin was amazing at working with me when I change her drop off time twice due to flight changes. He sent me pictures and videos and let me know Cookie was warming up to him (as I was worried about that, as she is wary of people she doesn't know). He was also accommodating in letting someone else pick up cookie for me as I wouldn't be able to. Cookie seemed to be her normal self when I returned home and hopefully she was good for Kevin during her stay. I would book with Kevin again as he was very chill and laid back about Cookie.”


“Savannah was amazing! She went above and beyond for our dog. She provided pictures and videos during our vacation, and let us know how everything was going. You can truly tell how much she and her husband care. Our dog was sad to leave her and her dogs behind.. shows how much love he received! Highly reccommed!!”


“Maricela 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!”

Our 2 year old border collie had a great time with Megan! He is very energetic and gets nervous but she was patient with him and took great care of him for three days. We have already booked her for our next time away from home and look forward to working with Megan in the future.
