“Maverick loved walking with Sarah! I appreciate the help while we were gone. This is first time using Rover or Sarah and I would definitely ask her to walk him in the future!”
About: I have trained and owned animals my whole life. I graduated with a veterinary assistant degree from western Iowa tech in Sioux city Iowa. Animals are my world and I love working and hanging out with them daily. I own a dog and 2 cats and love to cuddle them and train them so they can become and live their best life possible. I can give all my animals baths, exercise, positive reinforcement and love anytime they need it. I have a huge back yard and love to play with them outside too.
About: Hello! I’m a RN currently in graduate school for anesthesia. I have always had a passion caring for animals! I live alone with my dog, Aspen. She has been with me through everything. ❤️ I’ll take care of your baby like they’re my own! I have numerous experience with house sitting, drop-in visits and dog walking. I have background checks and references available for house sitting. I’ve been doing Rover for several years and have experience with almost every type of dog! My availability varies but I will always work with you! Your dogs will be safe under my care and I can take care of anything else you need while you’re away. I will always work with you as much as I can on pricing if needed! I am currently in graduate school, but I have a pretty flexible schedule and can usually work around whatever we need to do for your pets! I have experience with many types of animals and can be trusted to provide your pet safe and loving care. I am able to provide background checks and references from previous clients.
“Carena was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous but she took the extra steps to make us feel comfortable by doing a home visit, sending us pictures of Mozzie, and being all around very communicative!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 15 years. I have experience with all sizes of dogs including extra large dogs. I love dogs of all ages...especially puppies. I have taken care of dogs that had disabilities/movement issues. I believe that dogs should be treated like people and be loved as much as possible because all they want to do is make people happy. I am a dog mom and have two wonderful, but crazy Labrador Retrievers. They are my kids and I would do anything for them. I'm looking to do this at least part time, but hopefully full time. I have a full time job right now, so my schedule is a little flexible right now and my weekends are usually open. I treat all dogs and cats as if they were my own. I treat them with care, respect, and lots of love. I am very patient and I care for each dog individually because they all have different levels of need.
About: I have grown up with many different dogs and they are family. I currently have a labradoodle named Bailey and a golden retriever named Mack! I work part time 8 hour shifts and on my days off I would love to have something to do! I am very flexible and willing to make anything work! I have two dogs that are very friendly and playful. I also live on a farm that is half a mile from the road with plenty of running space for the dogs!

“I couldn't be happier with my experience using Rover! My sitter was incredibly kind, professional, and provided regular updates with pictures of my pup. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. When I returned, she was happy, well-cared for, and had clearly been treated like family. I highly recommend Rover to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet care!"”
