Katrina did a great job with our kitty! Got him his meds every day and spent time petting or playing with him - he’s very sociable and always wants to be with people. Very glad we found Katrina!

Gabrielle was great! She was available for me last minute. She kept me updated about the dogs and sent me photos that gave me a reassurance that they were in good hands! Highly recommend!

Absolutely incredible with following directions with training. Super willing to walk her pup in a rather boring area for 30 minutes so I could have a designated distraction during my training session for Tia. I am so beyond grateful for her help.

Renae was amazing! We have 3 senior chihuahua’s who all wear diapers and each have their own special needs and she took care of them with no problems at all. She was even able to win over our most fiesty one who rarely lets others handle him. She left our home spotless even though I know my boys made messes. She was reliable and communicative and it was so wonderful to be able to go away and know they were in good hands. 10/10.

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve been the designated pet sitter for all my family and friends since I was 10. Over the years, I’ve gained very diverse experiences and skills in pet care, including: • Caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Aiding dogs with mobility issues • Caring for blind and/or deaf dogs • Administering medications, including insulin • Managing conflict between dogs • Basic grooming of all coat types • Basic training techniques, as learned through a service dog training program I’m free whenever your pets need me, weekends and weekdays. I only have one online class this summer, so I can give your pets all the attention they need! Let me know any specific care preferences such as crating, separating certain pets, preferred route for walks, cleaning instructions, etc. I only use positive reinforcement and refuse to use any tool that can harm the dog(s), including prong collars.

About: My wife Erika and I are dog lovers through and through. We rescued our pup Kenzie in 2020 and she has been the best addition to our family. We love taking her on walks and spoiling her. We look forward to caring for your dog like they are our own. My wife and I both work from home. I have a fairly flexible schedule and can step away when needed to take care of any needs that come up. We look forward to helping with whatever needs you have, whether it is dog walking, feeding, letting them out or just keeping them company. For boarding and doggy day care, it is important that your dog is able to climb up steps as our bedroom and home offices are on the second floor. Unfortunately for house sitting, we do not accept requests if there is also a cat in the home. Please let us know what we can help with!

I cannot say enough great things about Chris and Kate! They provided a daily drop-in visit to check in on our kitties while we were out of town. Our playful kitty Lin met them at the door each day, our shy kitty Dottie quickly warmed up to them, and they were even able to spot our senior cat Smokey a number of times (before he ran off to hide, as he usually does, haha!) I also really appreciated the detailed notes and adorable photos of the kitties they sent us each day -- you could tell how comfortable the kittens were with them by the end of the week. It's such a relief to know your pets are being well taken care of when you're out of town! This was our first time using Rover, and I'm so glad to have had such a great experience with Kate and Chris! We will be booking them again in the future! :) Thank you!

About: I am an Animal Science Major at ISU and worked at a vet clinic recently! I am looking forward to having process in my career and loving what I do best! I am full time in school and the rest of the day throughout homework and studying I’m up and about with my animals fitting in their needs and care. I value their space when giving me signals of stress and being overwhelmed as very excited with them when that is what they need. Full energy dogs are so loving and we have the best time as well as calm and old souls who needs more naps.

They were willing to work with a very last-minute request and went right over to take care of our boys. Having no familiarity with the dogs, they still worked with their quirks and weren't afraid to ask questions when it was needed. Like how to get Rory back inside when he really wanted to keep playing. We are very grateful!

Chris and Kate are fantastic! This is our second time booking with them to watch our kitties and will not be the last! They provided detailed notes after each visit to let us know how things went - I love how quickly our kittens became comfortable with them almost immediately! Thank you, Chris and Kate, for providing such great care for Lin and Dottie while we were out of town. It's such a comforting feeling knowing they're in great hands!

MacKenzie was fantastic with my drama cat Flash! MacKenzie was responsive to my emails. She helped my Flash get through a very traumatic time for Flash, as his companion cat had recently passed. MacKenzie went the extra mile trying to comfort Flash each day while I was away. MacKenzie is truly a great cat lover, and I would recommend her to anyone.
