House Sitting In Schenk-Atwood

“Joshua was fantastic from the start! He took such great care of Millie & Hope and provided daily updates. The house was spotless after a week of being gone & the dogs were very happy!! Would certainly recommend Joshua and will definitely use him again in the future!”

“Tatyana is a reliable and caring sitter. She stayed at our house with our 11.5-year-old German Shepherd and provided excellent care, and tremendous peace of mind for us. Having worked at a kennel previously, she is comfortable around all types of dogs (and ours is a big boy). She sent periodic updates and followed our instructions well. We highly recommend her for short or extended care.”

About: I have always loved animals. I was the kid that would bring stray animals home asking my parents if I could keep them. I have always had dogs in my family homes. I graduated from Iowa State University with an Animal Science degree in May of 2016. I have dog sat for other families in the Waterloo/Cedar Falls area. I honestly love dog sitting and I have even taken care of some turtles and tortoises. I don’t really think of pet sitting as a job, but rather an opportunity to provide a safe and loving environment for your family pets while you are on vacation or if you have other obligations. I know how difficult it is to find someone who cares for your animals as you do, and I would truly love to be that person.

“Lizzie was a great in-home option for us while we were away for a few nights. I wasn’t concerned about our dogs while we were away and appreciated coming home to happy dogs! Thanks, Lizzie!”

“This was our first time using Rover so we were a little nervous as our 8 year old pup had never been left with someone he didn't know. Mary came out a few weeks before the dates booked to have a meet and greet with her and Cassius instantly loved her. She asked all the right questions in regards to his daily routine, special requirements ect. Mary stayed in our home overnight and was very quick to respond to questions and sent us the cutest photo when she arrived to the house. Now that Cassius is comfy with her, we'll definately be using Mary in our future pup sitting needs. Thank you Mary!”

“Julia was so pleasant and professional! She asked great questions to prepare for her time with Princeton, and you could tell she really cared - Princeton warmed up to her immediately :) I highly recommend Julia and would definitely hire her again!”

“Ruby was great! We got back a tired, happy pup and a house as clean as we left it. We’ll definitely hire her again when we need a house sitter.”

About: Hi all, my name is Alina and I’m new to Rover :). I have been a reliable dog/cat sitter for family, friends, and co-workers for a few years. I am a respectful, friendly, animal-loving soul that is free all summer to care for pets and make them feel safe and happy! I am starting medical school in the fall so I am excited to get some time with furry friends this summer. I love getting animals outside for walks and playtime. I am happy to work with pets of all ages. I am not working any particular job this summer other than pet-sitting. With this, my schedule is very flexible and I’m available just about any day of the week/weekends except a few select dates. I’m happy to work early mornings and late nights too if needed. At my client’s home, I care for pets by following their feeding routine, brushing their fur, and incorporating lots of playtime and exercise. While I haven’t been previously asked, I would also be happy to bathe pets if requested!

“Samuel was fantastic! Our two dogs and cat were well cared for, and the house was spotless — he even washed the sheets and towels. Highly recommend and will book again.”

“Nate watched our 3 dogs and stayed at our house for a long weekend. He was great with our active puppy, gave medication to our senior dog, and provided lots of love to our pit bull snuggler. We recieved lots of pictures and the dogs were worn out when we got home, he took them on walks and played with them in our backyard. The dogs loved Nate. Would love to have him take care of our dogs again anytime!”

Charli M.

“Askley dog sitted at our house for the weekend. She was very responsive to initial inquiry as well as continued communication. She was professional yet very friendly and asked appropriate questions about our dogs . Our dogs are quite a handful but she developed a fast relationship with them. She sent pictures and brief update daily. So glad we found an amazing caregiver thru Rover!”

Marcie R.

“Oliver did an excellent job taking care of our dog! Great communication while we were away and sent lots of cute pictures.”

Keelin M.

“Annmarie has watched Winston for us multiple times now. She really goes above and beyond to make sure our boy is well taken care of! Our pup is not an easy dog, and requires multiple attempts at walks and potty breaks. She's patient and caring with him - making sure all his needs are met while we're away! Not only does she take great care of Winston, she goes above and beyond to keep us updated while we're away. We're so grateful to have found such a wonderful pet sitter.”

Amanda F.

“Tara did did an awesome job watching our two dogs and house while we went out of town for a long weekend. Excellent communication, reliable, great with the pups. Would book again without hesitation.”

Benjamin L.

“Jordyn is so sweet with our dog Tina! We feel lucky to have found her. She’s super patient with our shy pup and always takes great care of the house while we are gone - going the extra mile like putting away dishes or shoveling the driveway, which I never expect. She’s trustworthy, communicative, and friendly. You should book her!”

Mariah V.

“Zoe was fantastic! Great at communicating and sending pics throughout the stay. She took Ollie for 2 nice long walks which he loved. I really appreciated her care and wouldn't hesitate to have her sit again!”
