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.

About: I worked at a veterinarian center for 2 years, and have 15+ years of experience with pets. I absolutely love animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently working part time so i’ll have plenty of time to play and take care of your baby’s. I love going on walks with them and they will be able to snuggle up right next to me at night! I have a lawn outside and a great walking route where i live. I also have space for your doggies to sleep, play and hang out!

About: With over 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, I bring a calm, confident presence that animals naturally trust. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and temperaments—including senior pets, rescues, and animals with medical or behavioral needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, structured walks, or just quiet company, I treat every animal like family. Communication, safety, and comfort are always my priorities—and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way! I offer drop-in visits and dog walking that fit easily into your pet’s routine. I do not offer overnight care, but I’m happy to check in morning, midday, or evening to keep your pet comfortable and happy while you're out. I believe pets are family—and I treat them that way. You’ll always get clear updates, lots of photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Let me know what they love, what makes them nervous, and how I can help make things easy for both of you! I care for pets exclusively in their own homes, where they feel most safe, secure, and comfortable. I believe that animals thrive in familiar environments, and my goal is to support their routine with as little disruption as possible. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk or a drop-in visit, I always make safety my top priority. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes before and after every visit, and I keep a close eye on your pet’s body language to make sure they’re feeling calm and secure. I’m respectful of your home and space, and I clean up after myself (and your pet!) so you return to a tidy, happy environment. I take time to learn your pet’s preferences and quirks—what comforts them, what makes them nervous, and how to help them feel loved while you're away. Trust and communication matter to me, and I’ll always keep you updated with honest check-ins and sweet snapshots of your pet while you’re gone.

“You can trust Jaron. He is dependable and communication with him is easy. He has a positive attitude. His report cards were helpful, as we have an older dog with health issues.”


About: Hi there! I’m Treva—an experienced and compassionate animal caregiver with a lifelong passion for helping pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m 19 years old and currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate quality time to your fur baby. Whether it’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I’m happy to work with your schedule to provide the best possible care. My services include dog walking, feeding, medication administration, enrichment activities, playtime, and one-on-one companionship. I’m comfortable handling pets with special medical or behavioral needs, and I always take the time to understand each animal’s unique personality and routine. I also offer drop-in visits and overnight care for pet parents who need peace of mind while away. With over three years of hands-on experience in professional dog care—and two years spent managing a busy pet facility—I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve bottle-fed newborn puppies, worked with reactive dogs, and supported seniors with mobility issues. I’ve also been active in rescue, fostering, and rehabilitation efforts, which has deepened my understanding of animal behavior and the importance of patience and trust. Currently, I have three smart and kind dogs of my own, and we enjoy daily walks and visits to the dog park to get our energy out and stay social. We may live in an apartment, but we make sure to get outside every day for fresh air and fun! When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family. I bring a calm, reliable presence, strong organizational skills, and most importantly—a whole lot of love. 🐶💖 Let’s make your pet’s day (and yours) a little brighter! 🌟 I’m currently working part time and have plenty of time to care for your fur baby.

“My Shinoh was sick and even though her only responsibility was to walk him. Angela went above and beyond for my Puppy. She rushed him to the vet and made sure he was safe before leaving. Angela is amazing. Shinoh and I will always be thankful.”


About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities — from playful puppies to gentle seniors, energetic large breeds to cuddly lap dogs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or just providing a safe and loving environment, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I love creating routines that make pets feel comfortable and happy, whether that’s a brisk morning walk, a game of fetch, or just curling up for a snuggle. I also have a 1.5-year-old mini Goldendoodle who I absolutely adore, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family member! I am currently on summer break, so I am pretty flexible! When school starts back up, I will typically only be available in the evenings! Whether your furry friend is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I strive to create a calm, loving, and secure environment that mirrors their routine and makes them feel right at home. In my home, pets are supervised closely, given plenty of love, and kept in a clean, safe space that’s free of hazards. I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time to ensure each one gets personalized care and attention. My own pup is friendly, fully vaccinated, and always supervised during any interactions. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules to walk routes and bedtime habits. I provide regular updates with photos and always keep communication open, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, you can count on a trustworthy, responsible sitter who treats your dog like family.

“Did an excellent job walking Dublin. He was a big fan of her! Always showed up in a timely manner and did an excellent job communicating. Thanks!”


“Hailey was incredible with our dog Ralphie! She helped us out with short notice and she took her time making sure Ralphie had great walks :) Highly recommend Hailey!”


About: I’m a lifelong pet owner and have experience taking care of both dogs and cats. Over the past six years, I’ve been responsible for feeding, walking, playing with, and providing general care and attention to my own dog. These last few years I’ve also pet sat for my family members and friends, taking care of their dogs and cats. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and ensuring that they feel well taken care of and loved! I am currently a student at Iowa State University, but everyday I have breaks or long stretches of time where I can drop in on and take care of your pets! I always ensure that I go over with any rules/boundaries with clients and to ask about any additional care towards the pet (like administering medicine). I like to know whatever works best for you and your pets!

“Jodie did a fantastic job watching my special needs dog! She took the time to guide him outside and down the stairs. I highly recommend her and will be rebooking in the future!”


About: I have had multiple dogs since I was 6 and taken care of all of them, neighbors' and families' animals actively for the last 4ish years! I would love to add a basic groom for an extra $10 added to any service you have scheduled. I have my own dog that I trained since he was a puppy, and he is now almost two. I also take care of a family's dog on a daily basis. I do not have a fenced-in yard, but I have a huge yard with long leashes. I also love to take our dog to the dog park. If you also have a pass, I would love that. My dog is mild to high energy and loves other dogs!

About: I have been dog sitting for my friends and family for years. I work from home and have a large fenced in backyard. I have a 3 bedroom house located a few block from a bike/walking trail. I would like a dog of my own but my schedule doesn’t allow for that so cuddling and spending time with your dog would be perfect. I’m new to Rover and would more than happy to provide references if needed. Your dog will have access to my furniture while I am home. I can maintain a set schedule and provide your dog with love and care while you are away. I currently work full time from my home. Your pet would be in a kennel very minimal and have lots of attention. Would just be in a kennel if I need to run errands. I have a large fenced in backyard that your pet will love to run free in. The fence was replaced summer of 2021 after the derecho.

“Danielle made me feel so much better about leaving my girl!”


About: I’ve had a dog in the house ever since I was a little girl. l've known since then that dog care was my passion. I’ve taken care of both big and small dogs and love them all! I currently work from home all but one day a week. I am available at all times to give your pup plenty of exercise, playtime, and snuggles! My daily routine is pretty flexible so I can adjust as needs arise. My pup Mia is pretty active, so I currently walk her 1-2 times a day depending on weather. When it’s nice outside we play ball in the yard, when it’s not nice we play fetch or with other toys inside. I like to give dogs plenty of attention. This can be in play and snuggles. Whatever your pup is feeling. We also have a small doggie door for easy access to come in and out of the backyard. Our pup loves to lay in the sun on the deck when it’s nice outside. My goal is to make your dogs stay fun, and keep up with their regular daily routines. I want them to feel like they are on an enjoyable vacation, just like the rest of their family. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, including our bed at night if you prefer. If your pup is staying for an extended time, I do prefer they are crate trained in case I need to leave for a short trip to the store. If they are house trained and understand chewing is only for toys, I can let them stay loose in the house.
