“This is our first Rover booking and we couldn't be happier. Brooke did an excellent job of making sure our "new to us" rescue dog had a good experience. Amee got to read stories at bedtime and take walks with the family. She'll be back for more fun.”
“Our lab, Yeller, has stayed with Steve and Tilaine twice during our summer vacation and he has a wonderful time in their home. They are loving and responsible and treat him like family. He loves playing in their fenced yard with the kids, laying in the sun on their deck, and all the attention he gets throughout his stay. When we dropped Yeller off for his second stay with them, about a year after the first one, he enthusiastically bolted from the car right up to Steve and immediately made himself at home again. They have also been flexible with our return time as our flight was delayed and accommodated an extension of the stay on short notice. Highly recommend this family for your dog sitting needs!”
“Our doggo loved his stay! He had a nice balance of outdoor play time (his favorite thing!) and inside rest. He had fun with a variety of other dogs to socialize, which is great for him, and plenty of space to take a break too. It was like he had a mini vacation! He came home happy and exhausted. We'll definitely rebook with Nicole! Thanks for taking such good care of our pup--such a relief to not worry about him when we're apart. 💚”
“We absolutely loved having our Weimaraner, Hollis stay with Jacquelyn and her family! We felt so comfortable leaving her and Hollis enjoyed her time with them as well! There was never a doubt that she was safe and in excellent hands with them. We will definitely be rebooking with Jacquelyn every time we need to leave our Hollis.”
“our pup came back a very happy boy and couldn’t wait to visit again! kelly is great and did a great job of sending us pictures throughout the day! she was willing to do a meet and greet before his initial stay which was also super awesome of her! she’s definitely our go to !”
About: I know how energetic dogs are, and I am as well so we’re a perfect match! I can keep them entertained while they are also making my day so much brighter! I am a full time student but classes do not take up much of my day! I love to go on long walks and I can entertain any dog for hours. I can do late afternoons and mornings, as well as nights if need be. I have 2 dogs at home, but here at college I do not have any pets. My apartment does allow pets so it would be no problem to have them over:) I also have the option of a fenced in yard if your little pup prefers to run around freely.
“Wendy is amazing with our dog Timmy. She always exceeds our expectations. Her knowledge of dogs plus exceptional care means our dog has a great stay and we have piece of mind.”
“Amanda spoiled our dog all weekend! Played catch and cuddled and let him take a nap in her lap (he's almost 100 lbs so that was above and beyond the call of duty)! Another plus is there were 4-5 large dogs for Osborne to play with in Amanda's fenced in backyard so he came home happily exhausted. Amanda was extremely flexible in drop off/pick up times which was greatly appreciated as we were heading out of town for the weekend. She also carefully monitored his food so he only ate his food and didn't sneak other dog food and get an upset stomach. Highly recommend Amanda!”
About: I’ve been a devoted dog owner since 2009, and my dogs have always been cherished family members. Our home includes two friendly dogs who get along well with others, plus two kids who love being part of the “pack.” We have a secure 6-foot privacy fence for safe playtime, and I can work from home when hosting dogs that need extra attention. Life here is relaxed. Our dogs run and play in the yard, nap on the couch, and soak up attention all day. I work in Ames and can work from home if pups need more company during the workday. My kids love to help with feeding, walks, and snuggles. I am even available during ISU football games to swing by, feed, or let your dog out. In our home, pets are treated like family. Visiting dogs can play safely in our fenced yard, relax on the furniture, and enjoy plenty of supervised attention. I make sure water is always available, follow any feeding or medication instructions, and keep a close eye on interactions with my own dogs to ensure everyone is comfortable. My kids also pitch in with gentle play, walks, and extra snuggles, so your pup will feel right at home.
“Sam has been great for Hero this summer. Work has taken me away from Iowa for the last couple months and Sam has taken in my little pup when my parents needed to be out of town for a few days at different points. Hero has medication and can be finicky about eating, but Sam handled her care so well and I never felt any worry after meeting her and her husband. Great home environment and lots of pictures. I will definitely reach out again in the future.”
“Amazing boarding experience!!! Erin was wonderful taking on a last minute boarding booking for my girl. She was very attentive to all the details of taking care of my pup and keeping in communication with me before and during my time away. My girl enjoyed snuggles, walks, and meeting Erin’s roommates. I could tell she enjoyed her stay from the photo updates. Whether your pup has a lot of specifics for their care or you just need someone reliable and dependable, Erin is wonderful! Definitely will be booking again in the future. Thank you again Erin!”
“Jalyn did a tremendous job with our little pup Lexie! It was our first trip away, and Jalyn sent multiple updates throughout the days, which made us feel very comfortable with Lexie in her care. Lexie came home happy and ready for a nap from all the adventures over the weekend. We will be using Jalyn’s services again, and we highly recommend!”
About: I have about 2 years experience working in the ICU of an emergency animal hospital. I’ve had to take care of puppies, seniors, injured dogs, dogs recovering from surgery, dogs prone to eating things they’re not supposed to, and everything in between. I’m working towards getting into vet school, so I’m trying to save up money while doing what I love most: spending time with animals! I have classes at 8 or 9am every morning until evening so I am free to shower your baby with love anytime after classes, during lunch, or overnight if needed! Pets in my home are treated as if they are my own! That means they’ll be staying with me in my room and get supervised playtime with my animals if allowed. I will be respectful of your space while making sure your furbaby will get everything they require!

She’s patient, playful, and really understands how to make dogs feel safe, happy, and cared for. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, going for long walks, or just giving them lots of belly rubs and attention, she goes above and beyond every time. I never have to worry when my dog is with her because I know they’re in the best hands. If you need someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely great with dogs, Kindra is the one you want.”
