Safety, trust & environment

My professional job is a boarding tech at an animal hospital taking care of pets every day! I can provide references for pet sits and regular clients as well! I can even provide light cleaning around the house.

Information Annalise D. would like to know about your pet

It is very important to make the dog feel safe with how comfortable they are with new people and other animals/dogs, any specific health needs such as allergies, medications they may need, etc. I do require meet n greets ahead of the scheduled time for the dogs safety as well as my own!

A typical day

There are beautiful trails in Des Moines for dogs who enjoy nature and other animals, as well as dog parks, or trips to Starbucks for pup cups for the good boys who are allowed! Regular neighborhood walks are an option as well!

Annalise was absolutely wonderful with our pups! She sent updates and pictures throughout the booking! It was so clear our pups were in great hands and well loved! We will absolutely be rebooking with Annalise in the future!!

Annalise walked my dogs each day while I was on vacation. She collected them each day on time from my parents home, was great with communicating and my dogs loved her. Would highly recommend.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
