House Sitting South Park

“Christina was extremely communicative and treated the dogs fantastic! She also left the house in great shape and followed my instruction sheet to the letter, which I truly appreciated. Highly recommend!”

“Jane was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home with our bulldog for four nights. There were frequent pictures and check-ins which we so appreciated. One hundred percent will use her again!”

Stephanie K.

“He was an amazing sitter. Was very attentive to what my dogs needed and took great care of them. Will definitely continue to book future visits with him!”

Sevanah T.

“This was our first time using Rover and it was a great experience! Allison took great care of our house and our dog. She was responsive (sent lots of cute photos of our dog), followed the care instructions we left, and left our home in great shape! We are so happy that we found someone trustworthy to watch our dog. We look forward to having Allison stay with our dog in the future. We definitely recommend booking with Allison!”

“I use Molly regularly as I have trips every couple of months out of state. Molly is great at communicating and sending updates. I know my boys are in good hands with her and she makes these stressful trips so much easier knowing this. I recommend her every chance I get!”

Erica M.

“Stacey is awesome!! I'll admit that I'm not the most timely communicator, but Stacey is! She She always confirmed with me before our scheduled meet and greets, she was confident with our dog that isn't the best with new people, she kept us up to date regarding how our three pups were doing, and sent some sweet pictures. Our pups were clearly content hanging out with her. We will definitely be asking her to stay again! Thank you, Stacey!”

Susan H.

“Aaliyah was so sweet and took great care of our dog! She regularly sent updates and photos, and left our home cleaner than it was when she got there. I cannot recommend her enough!!”

Kennedy M.

“Cass is someone who loves your pet like they are her own. She sent so many pictures and was sure to communicate daily. She is trustworthy in your home and with the most important members of your family. Thor and Loki can’t wait to have her back.”

“Jessica was great! We were out of town 4 nights, and then our flight got delayed and she was able to adjust her schedule to stay a 5th night to take care of our dog. She sent photos and updates at least twice a day and I felt better knowing I had someone here at our house to care for our dog (instead of boarding him). Our dog has some anxiety and allergy issues and she took care of all his meds and gave him lots of love and cuddles. She also washed all the bedding, towels and took the trash out (which she didn't need to do but did it anyhow). Highly recommend! Thanks again, Jessica.”

“Kayla was great with my two cats on her overnight with them. This was their first pet sitter experience. Both of them seemed to warm up quickly and Cedric even greeted her at the door (normally they are pretty skittish with new people.) They boys require some extra care like twice daily pills and feeding support but she did great and asked questions to make sure she did everything correctly and got some cute photos of them. She communicated when she would be out and made sure the cats have everything they needed and followed care instructions well.”

About: I started in the veterinary field at the age of 15 as a kennel technician and cross trained in the clinic as a veterinary assistant. I then went to school for animal/veterinary science and graduated with valuable skills and education. After school I went into zookeeping where i cared for a variety of taxa including but not limited to carnivores and hoofed animals. After leaving the field and changing careers, I became a foster home for Oh My Dog Rescue based in the Des Moines IA area. As a Retail Manager my schedule is not consistent however I guarantee that I will check on your animals a minimum of twice per day unless otherwise agreed upon. I do best house/petsitting for clients who leave detailed instructions and emergency contacts. I bring structure and high quality care to the table in every home I enter.

“Yasmin is amazing! We are from out of town and needed care for our two dogs while we attended a family wedding. Yasmin patiently stayed for 8 hours at our rental walking, feeding, playing, and babying our fur babies. Our Sr. Lab has a multitude of phobias and can be challenging but Yasmin was patient and kind. All while dealing with our 1 year old Mini Aussi. I can’t wait to visit again and have her back. She is a life saver!”

“Nothing but AMAZING things to say about Mackenzie and Anthony who took the time to watch our sweet boy Tiger! We were new to the Rover app and had some anxiety, but Anthony provided updates with photos and videos throughout the entire day! We are so so thankful! Anthony went above and beyond!”

Karly T.

“Megan was fantastic! She was prompt and responsive. She provided pictures of our pups and gave them all the love! Would highly recommend Megan.”

Keaton S.

“Mellissa is a true animal lover. She also deeply cares for her clients, going over and above. She keeps you in the loop sending many photos of the kiddos. She keeps you informed of any question she has. She was very clean and definitely left our house in great condition when she left. We will be using Mellissa in the future for our pet sitting.”

About: I used to walk a Yellow Lab when her owner broke her arm. I have volunteered at the ARL and was in the "walking the pavement" program. I am currently looking for a PT job so I have plenty of time to play with your dogs! I love walking dogs and playing catch with them My cat is very friendly and loves everyone! She makes friends with other animals easily. She was best friends with my Boxer until her passing. I live in a Condo so I don't have a private backyard but am willing to stay in your home

“Zoe was amazing! We were getting married on NYE 2022 and we had a dog sitter cancel on us a few days before our big night. In a panic we signed up for Rover, found Zoe and she was a life saver. She came over and met with us and Jackson two days before our wedding night. She followed all of our instructions, checked in with us via text when she got to our house on NYE and sent a few pictures during her stay and based on those pictures her and Jackson became best friends. She left the house in perfect condition after her overnight stay, and even left a beautiful wedding card for us. We highly recommend Zoe and we'll definitely be using her again!!!”

About: I have been dog and cat-sitting for others for a long time. I'm willing to be patient with pets because I have a reactive dog that requires lots of training and patience. The most important thing for caring for a pet is to make them feel loved and comfortable, and that's what I can bring to them! I work full-time, so I am only available on the weekends. I love spending time with animals, so why not fill my extra time taking care of them! I have two dogs that don't get along well with other pets very well, so I will strictly care for clients pets in their home. I am a neat person, and I'm good at following instructions. I'm willing to care for pets in any way necessary. Pets often feel most comfortable when they have a routine with their owners and I am willing to conform to that routine as much as I can.

“Justus did an AMAZING job of watching my 1year old German Shepherd, Violet! She was there for 3 days and she sent tons of photos and updates so I didn't have to worry. She played with her a lot, left my house spotless and was respectful of everything there. I know Violet will love having her back next time I have to go out of town with her. Lastly, if she can handle my puppy and her energy for 3 days.. she can handle anything!”
