“Gabrielle took great care of our dog, Foxy. We received updates and pictures throughout the weekend. With the beautiful weather, Foxy got to go on a long walk and to the Vet's Home. We will definitely be utilizing Gabrielle's service again.”


2. Garrah N.

“Garrah was absolutely fantastic. She has wonderful communication and sends updates with pictures. My dogs were well taken care of. I get anxious leaving them and it was a relief having Garrah watch them and take such good care of them. Will utilize Garrah’s services anytime I am away!”


3. Alexis C.

“Alexis was truly a dream. I feel so safe with my dog in her care. I was really hesitant to use rover but this will be my second time each experience has been wonderful. Do not hesitate to use rover especially if you have the option for Alexis she really does just treat your dog like they are her own, I received constant updates and super cute picture showing me how happy he was in her care. She is also so accommodating. I kept having to change times and dates on droppff and pickup. she is truly just a kind loving human! Thanks for being you Alexis and we will see you soon Im sure of that!”


4. Lily S.
“Lily is a great dog sitter in our eyes as our dogs are use to so much freedom and roaming space it is hard for my wife and I to board our dogs while we go on vacation knowing too well that are dogs get some outdoor kennel time it is not the same as their home environment. Lily gives us the peace and tranquility for us to go on vacation and not worry about if our dogs are being treated well. As every time Lily sees our dogs they are so happy to see hear as they get spoilt with her true loving nature/caring of animals. She gives them lots of quality outdoor time, plays with the dogs inside and outside as well as trying to teach them new tricks. Before we were introduced to Lily we were very hesitant to go on vacation but now we can look forward to vacation knowing that our dogs are very well taken care of in their own happy environment.”


5. Shelley M.

“Shelley was great with our dog. We’ve only had him for a short time but he’s had a 2 year journey prior to us and is very timid and shy. She did great with him, making him comfortable, and he enjoyed playing with her dogs. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing he was in great hands!”

10. Katie P.
About: I’ve had dogs in my family my entire life! Adopted my own dog about 5 years ago, a rescue that came with many challenges but has become a confident and loving dog! My fiancé and I adopted our own puppy about 6 months ago! I’ve worked to train him on basic tasks like walking, to more advanced and fun tricks! I work in college athletics, so while some seasons are really busy, I always have summer and breaks off! Flexible schedule during the school year. I take both of my dogs outside on the leash often for both bathroom needs, and walks. Our puppy crates well. They have 2x/day mealtimes, and water in multiple bowls available at all times.


11. Collin C.

“Collin and Alexis were great with our 6 mo old bernedoodle who can be quite a challenge. We were able to enjoy our evening without worrying once about Bailey. I highly recommend them.”


12. Meg C.
About: Hi, I'm Meg! I have grown up caring for pets my entire life. We always had 2-3 dogs growing up, and I recently adopted a dog a few months ago. I just moved to Fort Madison Iowa to be closer to family. I have a Mon-Fri (8-5) job but am very open and flexible when it comes to my schedule. I have a full time Monday-Friday job, from 8am-5pm. I am free almost any weekend or any day after 5pm to care for your baby. I will always love your baby like it's my own. I understand being away from them is difficult and I'll be the first one to give them the love and attention they need.


13. Amy R.
“I have used Amy many times to watch my animals. I have 2 German Shepherds and 2 cats. One of the dogs is older and requires arthritis medication which she administered with ease! My younger dog is very wild and rambunctious, and she can handle that too! Our house can be chaotic with everyone, so we require a lot of rules that the animals need to live by, for which she is capable of leading the pack. She has normally stayed in my home to watch my animals, as there are so many and she leaves the house better than we left it. She is very kind and considerate and you can tell by her positive vibes that she loves animals which in turn makes them love her! I would recommend Amy to anyone needing a sitter for their animals!”


14. Brandi L.
“Brandi is an amazing and loving person who loves dogs and was an amazing mom to two Pitties who lived long and full lives. She misses her babies and wants to share her love for dogs”


15. Jacob T.


“I was so nervous to leave my baby girl, Ginger, with a stranger for a week. However, Jacob was great. His dog was so friendly and he and Ginger got along wonderfully. I got updates and pictures. Jacob always returned my messages when I was feeling worried or guilty. When we picked Ginger up, she was excited to get back home, but I could tell she missed Jacob and R. too. I hope I don't need a dog care provider in the future, but if I do, I will be messaging Jacob.”
