“Samantha was fantastic to work with! She looked after our two cats while we were away for an extended period of time and we felt confident that they were in great hands. She is very communicative and quickly responds to questions. She understands cats and cat behavior and clearly loves animals!”

“Chrissy was AMAZING with my Lab and Rottweiler. I recommend her to anyone needing their fur babies watched. She was very communicative, punctual, friendly, and trustworthy. If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would🤩”

About: Since a baby, I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, and reptiles. Not all at once, but I have always been a lover of animals of all types. I have been around animals with sensitive diets, tummy troubles, skin sensitivity, anxiety, and paw pain and know how to spot the warning signs for most common complications. Grooming, bathing, feeding, and exercise are all tasks I am deeply familiar with. If your pet has unique care instructions, trust that I will do my best research prior and will carefully ensure your baby receives the most comfortable stay. I am a college student currently. I currently live in a studio apartment near UNI and will be able to flexibly care for any animals of all types; sans very large dogs for space reasons. My time mostly consists of studying and trying to find the time to exercise enough, so you don't have to worry about a busy body! For my in home service, I am very meticulous about "leaving it as I found it or better than it was." Having military discipline, I am punctual about arriving, check-ins, and feeding/potty times. You can guarantee that any and all instructions relating to your baby or babies is closely followed and communication prompt when necessary. As for boarding or hourly stays, my home is their home. They are welcome to sleep or lounge where they like and accompany me on a walk around town or during a Law and Order binge. Belly rubs and butt scratches are always available round the clock!
About: Growing up I have always had cats and dogs around in my life. I have always bonded with cats and have lots of experience taking care of newborn kittens. I have found homes for 30 cats and kittens and would love to continue helping cats, dogs and owners out with pet care as needed! I love meeting new pets and owners and I’m exited to have you book with me! I currently work at Texas Roadhouse and am starting collage! Being injured I had to rethink how I was going to work and make money and rover works out very will for me! It’s an amazing opportunity to help pet owners in need as well as connect with pets! I love exercising and walking and always make the pets included if they want to be, even my 15 pound cat in his backpack! I currently live in an apartment building and go for walks frequently. I do own a cat backpack that is breathable for the cats to take them on walks as well as a cat and dog leash and harness for small dogs! I also have lots cat toys and a few dog toys that are just waiting to be used by someone other than my cats (whom are great with other animals).
About: I grew up on a farm and have been around animals for my entire life. At home I have three dogs and two cats. Now that I live away from them I’m hoping to spend time with animals through Rover. I can ensure that I am knowledgeable and will provide quality care for any pet. I am a full time student but will have three month completely free from May 15-August 20. Once school starts again I will still be available, just with different responsibilities during the week. I live in a condo with a yard and will provide whatever service or care your pet needs including walks, playing, feeding, training, and anything else.
About: I’m the kind of person people trust with the important stuff. I’m patient, reliable, and experienced with different personalities and routines—including administering medication when needed. I focus on keeping everything calm, safe, and stress-free while you’re away, and I’ll always keep you updated so you can feel at ease. I work until 4 PM most days, with some flexibility to get off early depending on my schedule. That means I’m available for afternoon, evening, and weekend care! I love spending my free time giving pets lots of attention, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I provide a calm, loving environment where pets get plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I’m experienced with both cats and dogs and can follow any specific routines, feeding schedules, or medication instructions you provide. I pay close attention to behavior and body language to make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel secure, happy, and well cared for at all times.
About: We have had dogs, cats, & bearded dragons for 25 yrs! Neighbors, friends, and family members have trusted us to take care of theirs too! I have a flexible work schedule and I'm free most weekends. So, I would be able to take care of your beloved pets almost anytime! I have a fenced in yard. I have 2 labs and they would love more playdates if you needed boarding. We can keep them seperate if needed too.
About: I have a Doberman at home that I trained myself, and I’ve worked with cattle/pigs, so your big dog won’t scare me! I grew up with dogs and have been dog sitting for as long as I can remember, so your pup is in good hands 😊 I work early mornings, so I am available almost every middle of day & afternoon with more flexibility on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I spend at least an hour at home everyday training my own dog & playing an insane amount of fetch! I am very observant of animal behavior & will mirror your pets energy level so that they feel comfortable around me. I am very protective of my own dog & will treat yours the same while in my care.
“Angie was great, filled in for us last minute! She was easy to work with and accommodated a virtual meeting to go over instructions to fit our schedule. We were very happy with the care our two cats received!!”

“Tiara took great care of our two cats while we were gone. She is very professional, responsive and on time and was able to take care of things perfectly with little feedback from us while we were busy traveling. Being able to relax on vacation knowing that things at home are taken care of is so important. I will be using Tiara again for our next adventure.”

“I’m so grateful I tried Rover and found Ashley! When Ashley came over for a meet and greet, Jasmine immediately loved her! She is so kind, loving, and a personable. Ashley took the time to get to know Jasmine and asked great clarifying questions. I absolutely loved receiving sweet updates and photos when I was gone! I was not worried the entirety of my trip because I knew she had it covered!! Ashley was even sweet enough to clean, wash the bedding, and vacuum without being asked. Ashley’s genuine love for animals and her strong communication skills make her the perfect sitter! I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m so thankful for her and will absolutely book her again!!!!”

“Cass is an amazing petsitter. She took great care of my cats, sent daily pictures and status reports. She let me know of any accidents the cats had and kept me informed of things going on around the house. I do highly recommend her.”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs. I love dogs and cats so much, and I treat them as my siblings. I can be patient, and I am willing to learn how to get better. I can start working as soon as possible. I will be around this whole summer. (Summer break from College) I won't be around after summer bc I'm going back to Iowa. :( I will do whatever you want me to, I mean, it is completely depends on the costumers requirements. I am pretty flexible, so, thank you so much .
About: I've been pet/house sitting professionally with a company for about 2 years. I have a few years of experience working in the pet industry (dog daycare/boarding/parks) as well. I have lots of experience working with dogs of many different sizes and temperments, so I know that each dog is different and can cater to various needs. I also have a 9yr old lab and two cats at home! I love all animals, so if you have more than just dogs in your home, count me in! My schedule is very wide open! I just moved out to California from the midwest, so I am ready to start caring for your pets! I take your instructions very seriously, and will care for your pets in the best way possible. Theirs and yours happiness are my top priority!
