“Crystal is amazing she truly treats every dog or cat under her care like they are one of her own.she always sends pictures and updates everyday, and understands what is needed for every pet. We are truly greatful for Crystal.”
“I used Samantha to watch my pup for me when I went out of town. This was by far the best experience I’ve ever had on Rover. Samantha is someone that clearly has experience taking care of animals and will frequently send updates and pictures during the stay. I’m so thankful for Samantha and I would HIGHLY recommend if you need someone dependable. Also, be prepared for your dog to get depressed when you get there to pick them up because they don’t want to leave.”
“Super friendly, beautiful home on top of it all has frenchies. So very knowledgeable about this type of breed. Next vacation I will be using her. Was updated everyday about my Berkie and didn’t have to worry about my fur baby, thank you so much”
About: I've had dogs for almost 30 years. I understand their temperament, needs, and can recognize when they're in need. I've bred dogs, so I've cared for them from pregnancy, to infancy, to end of life. I've had dogs since I was a child, so they are always factored into my daily routine. I live 10 minutes from base and I set my own hours, so I can come home to take care for them as frequently as needed. My dogs have access to food and water 24/7. I own my home and have a fenced in back yard. I'm military with a clearance, so my trustworthiness is undeniable. I live a stable life, so clients don't have to worry about their pet while they're at my home.
“She took really good care of our puppy. She would update me all the time with pictures and statuses. She definitely knows what she is doing. And her vet tech experience shows. The most patient person we've ever met. We will be using her services again!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Kaylee was amazing! She messaged us every day with an update and pictures of our sweet girl. We have a 7 month old Brittney named Rainy that has a lot of energy! She can be a handful, but Kaylee did an awesome job keeping up with her! Rainy had a great time wrestling and playing with Kaylee's golden retriever Sage, and snuggling with with her mini Australian Sheppard, Beau. This was our first time leaving our pup and we were gone for 8 nights. Kaylee put any fears we had to rest and we knew Rainy was in good hands and we didnt have to worry about her! We definitely reccomend Kaylee and I think Rainy would agree! We had one tired puppy when we brought her home! Kaylee was great and our Rainy girl had a blast!”
“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: Hi! My name is Mariam! In college I was a therapy dog trainer, training dogs to hopefully become therapy dogs! It was really fun and I really enjoyed it and hope to work with dogs again. We taught the dogs basic commands, how not to pull on a leash, how to wait for a door to open before walking through, how to properly interact with other dogs and many more things. I know how important a pet is to you and I will make it my duty to make sure nothing happens to your pet. I can dogsit, walk, and take care of your dog whenever you need me to. I am home for most of the time and will happily care for your dog! I’m currently home full time waiting for the start date of my new job, so I can take care of your pet whenever is convenient for you! My house has a backyard in it and I have a very friendly doggy named Nebula that will keep your pet entertained and having fun!
“Zach was fantastic taking care of Lego over the 4th of July weekend. He sent daily photos and was super easy to communicate with and met with us prior to our booking. Will definitely be using him again for future dog sitting.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
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 , 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 .
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.
