My dog had a great first daycare experience with Mackenzie and Anthony. He’s had issues with anxiety with sitters in the past, and did very well with them and their 2 dogs. I highly recommend.

Kevin is trusting, independent and takes direction well. If you ask him to help you out he’s always loyal and generous. We found him to go above and beyond expectations. .

Our 14 year old dog developed some issues that meant he couldn’t be alone while I was at work. He goes to Melanie’s a few days a week now. He loves it. We will continue to work with Melanie when we need pet care.

Jaden has an obvious love for dogs! He is very knowledgeable about handling different breeds and handling them together. Jaden went out of his way to accommodate my schedule as well as my boy Duke's special needs. I wish I never had to be without my bud, but when I do I will leave him with someone like Jaden!

My first time using rover and Samantha was so great to work with. Easy to communicate with and my pup had the best day with her! He was well taken care of and enjoyed playing in her big back yard. Will absolutely use Samantha again!!

About: if you need a weekend away, a day to work or even want to go out for dinners and you don’t want to leave your babies unsupervised, i think i’m the perfect person to care for them. I’ve owned many pets from dogs to cats to even reptiles. Extended family members and former neighbors can tell you that i will treat your pets with kindness and love. you won’t have a single thing to worry about. i understand first hand that our pets are not just our pets, they’re our family I have plenty of availability. I prefer clients tell me 2-3 days in advance when they need me. I usually pet sit from my place but i have no problem coming over if that’s what your comfortable with. Afternoons are usually perfect for me I have a big balcony and i live in a pet- friendly community. there’s also an amazing dog park near my building. I live in an extremely safe neighborhood! As for your home, i’m tidy and i usually bring my own snacks. i’ll give your babies as much attention as they need! any rules of your household, consider them followed!

Morgan is the ultimate dog lover and has never met one she doesn’t like. If she comes across a dog while we are out, she always has to stop and ask if she can give the pup some love. I have seen first hand how caring she is with animals and always gives them all her attention. Morgan is extremely prompt, responsible, and organized. She would be the ultimate Rover employee!

This was an amazing experience! I needed to make a trip to Ankeny and couldn’t leave my dog home for that long of a time so I hopped on this app and found her, so glad I did! He was a little scared at first but shortly made himself at home. Good communication and she sent photos! Made me feel good 💕I will be contacting Meagan again!

I wholeheartedly recommend Sara H. as a caregiver for your furry baby. She provided exceptional care for my giant schnauzer, and for that, we will be forever grateful. Sara is not just a pet sitter; she genuinely loves and understands animals. Her own furry baby is a testament to her dedication—extremely well cared for and loved. You can rest assured that your pet will be in the best hands possible with Sara. She’s attentive, loving, and treats every animal as if they were her own. Your furry companion will be safe, happy, and well-cared for under Sara's watch.

About: Family has relied on me for all pet needs. I’ve helped with sitting, potty breaks, feeding and walking. Or even just to keep their fur babies company. I work remotely with the ability to adapt my schedule a needed for pet care. I’m available during daytime hours and can provide evening hours as arranged. We have a fenced in backyard. I also have 3 children that love animals and would provide great companionship. We also have a dog who is a sweetheart.

Katie is a fantastic sitter ! She was very patient with my pup ? it was his first time staying in a stranger’s home. When I came to pick him up he looked so happy and energetic! She sent me multiple updates with pictures throughout the day which eased my nerves and worries. I will be using her again!!!
