“Absolutely wonderful. Never had to worry about what my girls were up to to or how they were doing. Rachael kept me well informed while I was out of town. Definitely, I will schedule again.”

“Absolutely amazing! This was my first time trying Rover and I look forward to using it again! Christina was amazing and responded quickly to my very short notice request. She was loving and caring to my 2 cats and my crazy high energy German Shepard. 10/10 would book with her again and will recommend to any fur parents I know in the future!”


“Kayla was great! She was friendly and immediately loved on our cat during our initial meet and greet! She was prompt with her drop ins and kept us well informed while we were away! Her report cards were fun to read and she always included great pics to let us know the cat was well taken care of!”

“Our kitties loved Tim, and they were very happy and calm when we returned home. He provided lots of play time for the younger cats, and lots of photos while we were away. I think they were disappointed it wasn't Tim when we walked in the door!”

“This was our first time using Rover and Allison went above and beyond taking care of our two cats while we were out of town!! She sent us pictures and kept us updated every day. We will definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Was right on time with what I suggested and we came back to a house still standing. 5/5 for us. Thank you Vivian for your prompt service and doing exactly what we asked.”

“Daniel was so great with our dog! He took great care and updated us frequently with photos. We highly recommend Daniel for your dog sitting/walking needs as well! Thanks Daniel!!”

“Morgan did a fantastic job with making sure my two dogs were loved and taken care of during our vacation out of state. She sent lots of pictures and videos on how things were going and my daughters loved getting the updates.”

“Ellie was very communicative about how each visit went and showed pictures of how my cat was doing (which was generally being dramatic about my absence haha). She followed instructions very well and made sure my kitty was well taken care of (even if she would disagree about her presence lol) Overall Ellie is a fantastic sitter and I would book her again if I needed her :)”

“Molly was amazing with our two cats. She followed everything I outlined perfectly and was super attentive. Her updates helped us feel at ease while we were out of the country. I knew we left our cats in good hands. I highly recommend letting Molly look after your animals!”

About: I've cared for dogs of all different breeds, cats, birds, bearded dragons and so much more. I currently have a German Shepherd, two French bulldog, and a cat. Have administer medicine to many dogs. I'm able to keep pets separated from other pets if needed as I have two level with full access to the fenced-in yard. Capable of caring for the youngest to the oldest animals. I do have experience with very anxious dogs as well. I am currently a stay-at-home mother of two homeschooled kids with lots of free, flexible time to give your pet lots of love and attention. I have many years of experience and strive to be knowledgeable on all breeds. I have two Frenchie and a German Shepherd. If needed, I do have kennels available in all sizes, but all animals are able to roam free in my house. With a safe fenced-in back yard, we are able to have lots of play time.
About: Although I am newer to professional pet sitting, I have always loved animals and enjoy spending time caring for them. I’m attentive, patient, and committed to making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I’m happy to follow any routines or instructions owners provide, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or giving extra attention to help pets feel at ease while their owners are away. I currently live in West Des Moines! But I’m usually running errands literally everywhere so I am super flexible! Ankeny, Des Moines, Pleasant Hill, Altoona, you name it! I am currently a student at Mercy College of Health Sciences, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. I have availability during many weekdays and evenings and I’m happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit their needs. I’m dependable and will make sure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet I care for. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and routines. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and comfort to ensure they feel safe and happy. Cleanliness, supervision, and respect for your home and your pet’s wellbeing are always my top priorities.
“We love Ky!! She is very communicative, thoughtful, timely, polite, and amazing with our (crazy) puppy! Our pup loves when she comes over, she spends good quality time with her, and communicates very well with us throughout her visits. We will continue to book with Ky as long as she’s available! Highly recommend ⭐️”

“Kal was amazing with our three dogs (and garden)! They came beforehand to meet the pups and us, and get familiar with the situation, which gave us such peace of mind during our trip. Then communicated during their multi-daily visits with texts and pictures. We'll definitely be booking Kal again and would recommend them to local friends/family!”

About: We have been pet sitting for friends and colleagues for 2 years so thought why not join Rover and do more! Our clients love my family and we love their pets so it makes perfect sense. I have 4 kids, a small dog and two cats and my small pets just hide if a visiting pet is too much for them otherwise they don't get bothered or bother anyone else, human or pet! I work from home and I have 4 kids who love cats and dogs and love to help out with the dogs that we already provide services for. We are trusted with hideaway keys to homes to let dogs out and we run them in fenced in yards to burn energy. Then we make sure they have food and water and kennel them if applicable before we leave. In our house, visiting pets are watched over by all members of the family. Sometimes we buy them their own special toy to play with. We make sure they eat and get any meds they might need.
