“Crystal was great! Our dog loved staying with her. He came home happy and healthy! Crystal is very communicative and you can tell from the moment you meet her she is a genuine dog lover!”
“5 star household! Our old man was so tired from all the play time. They provided great photos and updates and showed concern when he had a bit of bleeding from tug of war. Knowing they pay attention to details gave us additional peace of mind.”
“Bethany and her family took great care of Lacey! I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care. I appreciated the flexibility in drop of and pick up times. The photos and updates were great!”
“Our dog was recently struck blind, and it was nerve-wracking leaving her with someone else. Robert took excellent care of her, and sent us plenty of updates to keep our minds at ease.”
About: We had our first family dog 10 years ago, and we had 5 more after that. When I moved out, I got my own wienee in 2025. I want my baby to socialize more with other doggies so I thought pet-sitting might help with that. He's such an energetic but shy puppy so it would be nice to see him play with dogs of his size. I mostly work day shift. I get home around 2PM so I am free after. That's also when I would usually take out my own dog, so if I pet-sit, I can take them together so they can run and play in the grass. I currently live with my boyfriend but he will be out at work on the times I'm available and I will take full responsibility on the dogs that I pet-sit. Food, play, and cuddles... LOTS OF CUDDLES. I am not trained to perform medication administration or CPR but I will do whatever it takes to save them when something unfortunate happens. I will treat all dogs I pet-sit as my own... I will love them with all my heart <3
“Wonderful experience once again with Maria. We don't board our babies with anyone else!!! They make it easy to have peace of mind our babies are well cared for when we are away!!! Would recommend ro anyone!”
“Jennifer went above and beyond to take care of my pup. He was unfortunately injured prior to his stay and she was willing to give him the extra care & attention he needed to include a trip to the vet! Highly recommend trusting Jennifer with your fur babes!”
“Autumn was great with our black Lab for a long weekend away. She sent updates with pics and videos. I felt like she spoiled our dog with lots of love and attention! Easy drop off and pick up. She definitely cares for your pet like they were her own.”
About: I am a pet momma who loves animals and help families out when needed as I know how hard it is to find good care for their furbabies while away. I am currently off summers so free time is easy but when school starts again I will fit the pet care in after work or weekends. I make things work. I love animals and take very good care of them. I treat them like they are my own pets. Whatever needs they need i will care for them.
“Anne Marie was amazing with our dog Ellie. She would send pictures and videos daily which made us feel at ease with leaving her with a sitter. Our dog got along so well with their dog Rooney, I know she will miss playing with him We will definitely be using her and her family again.”
About: My first job at 16 was working for a local vet clinic, I eventually graduated with a bachelor's degree in Animal Science where I went on to get an internship at the zoo. I had volunteered at the humane society for a few years as well. I enjoy all kinds of animals and always treat them as if they were my own. In my free time, I enjoy being walked by my husky and cuddling up with my cat. I am also comfortable with giving any kind of medication. With my own dog, I take him out in the morning before work at 7am and then depending on the temperature outside I'll take him on a long walk or a short walk outside after work at 3pm. Both my pets get fed in the morning and in the evening. I live in a decent sized one bedroom apartment with my dog and cat. When it's not too hot for my husky we'll go to Prairie Queen for walk. If the weather isn't cooperating we'll do a quick walk around my complex. My dog and cat are the best friends and they always keep each other well entertained. Rocky the husky would love a new best friend to hang out with. Izzy the cat will question every choice she's made thus far in life.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Thurman can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Thurman home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Thurman.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Thurman. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Thurman sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
