Elena was there for us in a last minute pinch. It was my dogs’ first time with her, but they seemed to warm up right away. I would definitely book with her again.

About: I have experience with all ages, senior dogs and cats that have had medical needs and that require diapers 24/7, basic training, drop ins, sits and walking. I am currently available most days as I am taking some time off from work and will be doing Rover to supplement income. If I don’t have plans for a certain day, I can fit in drop-ins During a drop I’m able to walk, give treats/medication, change diapers, crate animal if needed, and do overnight stays as well. Flexible, let me know!

Calli did a great job watching my cat and house for several days, and she was flexible accommodating a last minute flight change on my return. She recognized a stressed-out cat who was not used to her owner being away, took her time letting the cat warm up her, and provided updates along the way. You'll be comfortable leaving your pet and house in Calli's hands!

I would highly recommend Natalie and we would definitely use her again in the future. Our cat who is scared of people he isn’t familiar with took to Natalie pretty fast. She spent so much time here with our cat and two dogs and they were well taken care of!!!

About: I am an Animal Science Major at ISU and worked at a vet clinic recently! I am looking forward to having process in my career and loving what I do best! I am full time in school and the rest of the day throughout homework and studying I’m up and about with my animals fitting in their needs and care. I value their space when giving me signals of stress and being overwhelmed as very excited with them when that is what they need. Full energy dogs are so loving and we have the best time as well as calm and old souls who needs more naps.

Gabby was great, very responsive! Loved that we always heard back quickly, and her responses were always positive and kind. We felt her pricing was fair and appreciated her flexibility when we asked to add overnight visits to our booking! My sister helped check on the dogs when Gabby wasn’t there and they were always happy and seemed great! Nice to have someone snuggling our babies while we were gone!

Rachel did a great job with my two dogs while we were out of town. I felt like I could trust her from the start, and she proved that intuition right. She shared photos and sent frequent updates. I’d gladly hire Rachel again.

Melanie was top-notch. This was our first Sophie-care encounter with Melanie. Sophie is a 16+ year-old beagle with health issues and medicine requirements. We exchanged info through Rover, Melanie stopped by to meet Sophie and learn a little about Sophie’s care, and Melanie cared for Sophie during a drop-in session at our home. Melanie was professional, thoughtful, positive, and very clearly had Sophie’s health and well-being as her top priorities. We will definitely add Melanie to our go-to list.

Jasmine was absolutely brilliant! She is knowledgeable and reliable, and our furbabies adore her! She was equally adept at tending to our 3-month-old puppy as she was our old, grumpy chihuahua. She knows her way around both cats and dogs and was able to offer us training support with our wee one. We will definitely be booking her for future pet sitting needs - even if we're convinced that our pups already love her more than they love us :)

I was very happy to have Michele care for my dog & cat. She clearly has a passion for animals, and they benefitted from her loving energy. Communicating with Michele was easy, she was very responsive, and proactive with any questions or concerns. I will definitely call on Michele again the next time I travel!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was young, family and friends have allowed me to take care of them. I enjoy taking them on walks, petting them and giving the attention they deserve, and taking care of them. I will treat them just as you would and offer extended stays. For stays longer than 5 days, most I have done is a month and a half as of present, you will return to a clean home 😊 I am strong and able to keep my stability while walking dogs, am able to let them out, feed them, give baths, and offer other services for the home like my interior design skills which is another side business, that can be spoken about, if interested.

Georgia did wonderful watching and caring for my cat and dog. I was so worried leaving for a week but she has done great and sent videos of my dog enjoying a pup cup. She walked him to our local ice cream shop to give him some out time while I was gone. She’s great!!

Isabelle came over on short notice for meet and greet. I just put one of my dogs down, and another was sick. She gave meds and took care of carrying my dog in and out of the house. I have an active puppy and she managed her well. The house was just as I left it. I appreciate the great care she gave my dogs.

Julie is amazing! She took such wonderful care of our dog and cat, sent frequent updates and checked how she should handle things, such as an impending storm. Left our house cleaner than when we left and was very easy to communicate with. Book with her now before her name gets out there and she has no availability left.

Due to unfortunate circumstances she couldn’t watch my pups. She was very proactive in keeping me up to date and helping me find another dog sitter. She said she would definitely like to help in the future.

Avery was so pleasant and attentive to Florence. She agreed to dog sitting at the very last minute and was very prompt and responsive. I also had some last minute conflicts and she was super flexible about everything with scheduling. Obviously comfortable with animals and a kind person to interact with! Will definitely be using dog sitting again!

About: Hi!! I’m a total dog lover with lots of hands-on experience. I’ve raised my boxer since he was a tiny puppy — he’s now 5 and still a total spitball of energy — so I’m very used to high-energy pups! I also have a boxer/Boston mix that we adopted who’s much more chill and the sweetest cuddle bug ever, so I’m great with both playful and laid-back personalities. I currently work part-time but have pretty flexible availability. Even though I’ve moved out and sadly don’t have dogs in my apartment right now, I spend my free time going to the shelter to take dogs out for walks, pup cups, or just bring them back to my place for some extra love and cuddles. I truly love all animals, and I promise I’ll treat your dog like one of my own 🤍 i currently work a couple jobs but mostly am off around 2ish if i can establish regulars i’d be very interested into working more time into my schedule for them. but i myself always take care of my own dogs most days while my parents are at work I care for pets like they’re my own and always adjust depending on the service and the dog’s personality. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your routine — feeding schedules, potty breaks, walk times, medications (if needed), and any house rules you have. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and playtime, especially if they’re high energy like my boxer. For more laid-back pups, I’m just as happy to give them calm companionship and lots of cuddles. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I keep the space clean, safe, and comfortable, provide consistent potty breaks and walks, and make sure they feel secure and loved. I also send regular updates and photos so you always know your fur baby is happy and in good hands.
