House Sitting in Union Park, Des Moines, IA

“Emily did such a great job watching my special needs dog! She was attentive, caring, and dedicated to making sure he was safe and cared for properly. She sent photos and videos everyday! She kept my place clean and made the bed. Highly recommended!”

“Jessica was an amazing house sitter. The boys got spoiled with her and she was so loving to them. Hey miss her already. She was very prompt with communication. We plan on using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica!!”

“Ky is awesome!! Absolutely the nicest and you can tell how much she cares about animals. Super communicative and flexible, and takes plenty of adorable photos! 11/10 would book her again.”

“Cory was awesome. I will definitely book with him again. He was on time and kept in contact with me throughout the house sitting process. I had a bad experience with Rover before and he has certainly renewed my faith about the program. Thanks again Cory!!”

“Allison did a great job house sitting and taking care of Dax at the last minute! She sent lots of updates and photos. The house was very clean too! My only issue was the $20 meet n greet fee which I thought would be deducted from the booking once confirmed. Even though her bio says, “to be modified in the final price once a booking is confirmed” I still thought it meant she would take it off the price upon booking, but she adds it no matter whether you book or not. I’ve used Rover for almost 2 years and never had to pay someone to meet. I also pay fees when booking Rover too…. So it’s part of the program. I, too, lose out on my time if someone meets Dax and decides he’s too big or not a good fit for them. I don’t get paid for my time going to job interviews or when I’ve interviewed babysitters…. So just something to consider.”

“Jessica is simply amazing. She sent photos and updates and everything! As a Rover sitter myself, I feel I have pretty high standards and Jessica more than met all of them. So incredibly lucky to have found her to watch our pups! Thank you Jessica!!”

“Kendra was fabulous. Visited 2 weeks prior to meet Saul and look at the home/location. Quick to respond to texts and sent photos often. Home was just as I left it and came home to a happy Saul. Thank you!”

“Andrea was a great communicator and took great care of our dog, cat and house. The house was also spotless when we can home. We will definitely have her help again if we can!”

“Very kind and attentive!! Would highly recommend Brenda and will for sure seek her out to watch my dog again.”

“Sidney was easily the best sitter we’ve had for our dog! She was super easy to work with, connected with our dog immediately, and was very communicative while staying. I loved working with her and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her first for any future needs!!”

“Jenna is a genuine joy. Her immensely warm demeanor and professional presence made us feel incredibly comfortable leaving our crew of silly misfits in her care during our first partnership with Rover. Responsible, respectful and a real pleasure to work only begins to describe her and her gift of service. We are truly blessed to consider her to be a member of our pack. Thank you for you, Jenna! 💜”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to walk, feed and bathe and even style their pets! Not only did I take care of others but I have my very own fur baby that I’ve been taking care of since I was a kid. I’m currently a part-time college student, a dog groomer, content creator and an aspiring entrepreneur to open my own business one day. I love to stay busy and active so your pup will get plenty of energy with me! I love to work out routinely and it’s so much more fun with dogs at my side! I am available all week and weekends just shoot me a text to let me know ahead of time, what’s your schedule, etc. I have a fenced yard and I have a dog of my own to keep your fur baby accompanied! I can crate my dog or yours if needed. I love all dogs as they are my own. It’s in my religion that animals are most sacred, so you can trust your pet is in good hands! I’m not greedy, not in this for the money, I’m willing to negotiate prices, whatever’s easier for you and to make your life more peaceful. Seriously! I do not mind! :)

“Honestly so kind and thoughtful and took great care of my pets while I was on vacation they were loved and cared for and so happy”

“We're over the moon with Tarah's stellar care for our two bulldogs while we were away. She handled everything like a pro, from giving them their daily Benadryl to dealing with their sassy attitudes with patience and grace. Coming back to a house that was better than we left it and two happy pups was the best feeling ever. Tarah's genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does, making her our top choice for pet sitting. If you're looking for someone reliable and caring, Tarah's your person. Huge thanks to Tarah for making our time away stress-free and our dogs' tails wag like crazy!”

“Tonya was amazing with our 3 fur babies. We have one afraid of thunder so she cuddled with him and played some music yo calm him. We will be hiring her again.”

“Javon was a phenomenal sitter and I would highly recommend for anyone looking to have someone care for their pet. She was communicative and very thorough, plus my pup really loved his time with Javon. 5 stars!”

“Mari B did a fantastic job taking care of our Jon Jon. She even made progress in teaching Jon Jon how to play fetch. And as a rescue dog Jon Jon has many difficulties that Madi handled beautifully. And she made sure to keep the rest of the house running smoothly as well. Can’t give Madi B. a high enough recommendation. If you want the dog/house sitting done to perfection, have Madi B. do it. I know we will.”

“I have known Irini for the past 8 years. Something that I quickly learned about Irini was her huge love for animals. Irini and I lived together for 4 years and in those 4 years there were multiple animals she took care of. There were multiple cats, dogs, and even turtles that saw visited our apartment. She was always responsible. Whenever she animal-sat she made sure they were fed when they needed to and would take the time to play with them. Whether that was taking a dog to the park or playing with a cat in our apartment. My sister and I have a cat and we have left him with her plenty of times. Would highly recommend Irini!”

“Keirston was fantastic! As soon as I met her I was confident my pets would be well taken care of. She sent us great updates and took care of stuff around the house as needed. You could tell by the photos she sent that the pets were happy and got along with her great!”

“Lacey has taken excellent care of my two Boston terriers on a regular basis for years now! One is a senior who needs carried up and down stairs with assorted health issues that come with age including needing eyedrops and different meds. The other is a high energy little guy who needs constant cuddles, playing & attention. Both absolutely adore her and I know they get the best possible care with her! I travel often for work & she’s the only person I feel comfortable leaving them with. She’s also incredible with cats of any age & temperament. Your fur kid will thank you for having her come hang out with them. Couldn’t reccomend higher.”
