I think my Sam had a great time with Cynthia and family…and he was so lucky that Cynthia’s daughter was there with her little dog Reggie, so he had a playmate the whole time he was there (9days). Cynthia watered her plants outside and my Sam loves to be watered also. And with the very hot weather, he enjoyed it. Will be returning!

This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!

Cliff did absolutely amazing with my dog while my husband and I were on a long vacation. I haven't boarded her anywhere in the past, she has always stayed at home and we had a dog sitter come in. Cliff was so attentive to our dog, gave her lots of attention and sent us pictures and videos. I would highly recommend him to look after your dog. He is always very responsive and my dog absolutely loved hanging out with Cliff and his dog and any other clients he had while we traveled. Excellent dog sitter!!

Alok was very professional and friendly. My puppy Charlie is usually a bit shy around strangers, but he warned up to Alok very quickly. In fact, he wanted to be with Alok at all times, following him every where we went. We also received updates, photos and videos while we were gone, which we really appreciated.

She’s very responsible and provided great updates with lots of pictures. This was our first time using Rover and I’m so happy we chose Caroline! We will definitely be booking her for many future needs! I would recommend her in a heartbeat! Thank you so much for taking care of our baby! 🩷

About: I’ve been around cats for as long as I can remember, since I was 3 years old and I still share my home with them today. With 20+ years of experience as a cat parent, I understand that every kitty has their own unique personality and needs. Whether your cat loves playtime and snuggles or prefers quiet companionship, I’m patient, gentle, and happy to give them care on their terms. From fresh food and water to litter box cleaning and lots of love, I make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

Jen and her family are amazing and I think our pup Nila would go to their house to visit every day if she could. Nila initially had some anxiety from some bad past experiences when Jen first started watching her, and Jen was incredible at helping her feel safe and gain confidence back. And her own dog Mia does such a good job of respecting Nila’s boundaries but also encouraging her to play and get out of her comfort zone. Jen treats every dog with so much love and care as if it was her own, and goes above and beyond any expectations we had.

Scott was incredibly friendly and easy to book with. They took such great care of our husky Bolt and sent plenty of cute pictures and updates on our boy. They easily accommodated our schedule and had the cutest little pug that our husky loved. Bolt enjoyed his time and got to play and make friends with some adorable dogs, he even got a yummy treat to take home with him at the end. If you are in need of a an excellent sitter who clearly loves dogs and enjoys taking care of them, then we can’t recommend Scott enough! We will definitely be booking again!

Melanie and family were so friendly that my dogs—a 4- and a 12- year-old Havanese—relaxed immediately. Melanie met us in the yard and the dogs trotted away with her without looking back. The dogs were with her for 6 hours and she sent multiple photos and status updates. We would definitely ask Melanie to watch our dogs again!

Jess and Scott are always our first stop for watching our pup! We have been taking him to them since we got him as a puppy and could not reccomend them enough. Kind people who want nothing more than to make sure your dog is loved and cared for, while still having a lot of fun while doing it. Great people!

About: I love dedicating time to pets giving them care, love and fun time. I want to give them the comfort of a warm, attentive and loving presence. I am a stay-at-home student and among other personal activities, I am able to dedicate myself full-time to this service both weekdays and weekends, day and night. I live with my husband and my 14-year-old stepson and we are all pet lovers! Although we may all enjoy the companionship of your pet(s), you can have peace of mind that pet(s) will be cared for 100% by me! I live in an apartment building with lots of comfortable space, safe, with windows screens. There is a dog park in the premises, there are many trails around that we can walk and have fun. Our view is to a beautiful green area where many birds come around to hang out and sing.

About: I have taken care of many many dogs throughout my high school years in my hometown. Now that I have moved to a new city I need some more animals to hangout with! I would love to walk, feed, and hangout! I currently am a registered nurse working 3 12 hour shifts a week, but don’t worry I will still have plenty of time for your dogs!! I will not ever take a booking that does not work! My place is available and I am willing to travel to clients home and pet parks in the surrounding areas.

About: I've pet/house sat for multiple people in the past. Animals include dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I like to have a meet and greet before ever staying with your pets alone. If you have any special diets or quirks make sure we discuss them in advance! I don't mind staying for a few hours to watch your animals or just drop in, whatever is needed! I have a nighttime job so, your animals will need to be able to be alone at night a few days of the week! I will discuss meal plan, how often you walk them/let them outside, and if they have meds with you prior to caring for your animals.

About: I found my first love for dogs when I was about 5, and begged my mom to rescue Burrito Bob. I then grew up always having a dog around. My junior year of high school I decided to buy my very own goldendoodle, Toby James. Toby is the best dog ever, and more so my child than my dog! I have 2 goldendoodle’s of my own, and they have learned very quickly what it’s like to be spoiled (we love drive through, the word pup-cup, and car rides! Of course we also love going on walks and runs! I have grown up living with 5 dogs at once of all different breeds! I’ve also recently learned how to groom my own doodles! Dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I’d love to care for your dogs like my own! I have 2 pups of my own that I treat like children! I enjoy taking my dogs for long walks and taking care of them! I will walk and let dogs out during the days! I have a 70 and 30 pound doodle that I walk at the same time! We recently welcomed our first non-fur baby into our home in October, and I am looking for a way to be the best mom I can be! What better way than daily walks and our absolute favorite thing - dogs?!

About: My mother runs my hometown's animal shelter; I built it with her from the ground up when I was eight. Ever since then I have continued to help when I visit home. I have worked with all personality types, breeds, and exceptional cases. I've done hands-on work with elderly pets to newborn puppies and kittens. In addition, I have house-sat for owners with many cats to one, a variety of dogs, and many with specific needs throughout the day. I myself have a dog and it's my top priority to give your pet everything it needs to be happy and healthy as if it were my own. I work weekdays from 9-5:30 pm but my calendar will be updated biweekly on weekends I’m available at this time. Feel free to reach out with any questions regarding scheduling! I always ask for a very detailed list of where the food and treats are kept, special medication, things they can and cannot have, etc. I also want to know their favorite toys, what their personality is like, do they like to play fetch, go on walks, or just to have some company indoors. If the animal has any health conditions I ask if I should be aware of anything other than medication when it comes to their health. If you pet is shy around strangers I ask to be shown the best way to approach them in your experience during the first meeting to ensure your pet feels safe.

About: Hello there! My name is Coty and I am here to help provide exercise, care, and happiness to your beloved fury ones! I grew up with at least one, if not two dogs in the home at all times. I currently have three dogs. Our oldest is an 11 year old Terrier-Chihuahua mix. His name is Oliver Walter, or Ollie for short. He is a rescue dog and is my absolute pride and joy; I simply cannot imagine my life without him! While he’s slowed down a bit, he’s still decently active. Our middle fur child is an 8 year old Cavapoo named Piper Jo or Piper for short. Shes seeet and sassy and loves her walks! Lastly, we have an almost two year old Bernadoodle, named Gus. Gus has completed our little family with his playfulness and love for his humans. He, too, loves his walks and any time outside! Dogs are such a huge part of my life and I truly wouldn’t have it any other way! I am available weekdays after 4:30 and available at any and all hours during the weekends! I am currently working full time but would love to walk your dog or dogs after 4:30 on the weekdays and anytime on the weekends! I treat others homes and animals with the same respect that I treat mine with. To a lot of us, our pets are our fur babies. I treat them with care, patience, and compassion.

About: Growing up my family had two dogs and many many cats that I loved to take of. I trained and entered both of our dogs and three others into dog shows. I was a nanny for a family in Waukee from December 2022-March 2024. During that time I would care for their dog and cat daily. I have also watched both animals while the family has been out of town multiple times. Now I am currently in flight school to become an airline pilot. I will have flights scheduled throughout the week that require me to be away for 3-5 hours at a time. The rest of the time I will be available to pet sit in your home! I like to do a meet and greet either in person or over a video chat to meet you and your pet beforehand. This ensures I will know all the details about the care they will need and what a typical day looks like for them. I am more than happy to send photo updates daily or more often if requested!

Growing up around animals and spending some time around animal shelters has instilled in me a unique understanding and dedication. I will go the extra mile to ensure your furry friend lives a happy, fulfilling life while in my care, providing not just a service, but genuine love and attention. As a college athlete at Utah State, I'm in Utah for the summer to work on training, which actually makes pet care a perfect fit for my routine! I have availability most weekday afternoons and potentially some mornings, allowing plenty of time for walks, playtime, and ensuring your pet gets the attention they deserve. Weekends are also an option if needed. Being away for college has made me miss having my own furry friends so I would love to offer my love to yours! No matter if it's just a quick walk, a pop-in visit, or more, your pet will be my number one priority. I've been around animals for years, and want your pet to feel safe, happy, and totally loved.

This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!

Always a good experience with Scott. Professional, good communicator, daily updates and a caring, kind dog sitter. So thankful for the care our dog gets while staying with Scott.

This was the first time we’ve boarded our dogs, and we were nervous. Jessica put us at ease by doing a couple of meet and greets to see if the dogs would be compatible. One at a public place, and one at her house. She treated our dogs as if they were her own. Jessica sent us photos and updates each day. They had a blast, and we will definitely use Jessica again the next time we need to board them.

Absolutely amazing! Our favorite Rover Sitter yet! My husband and I had conflicting work schedules and Tanya was available to accommodate and watch out dog for us. Some days she had other dogs which out dog loved and other days where she didn't have other dogs she still made sure our high energy dog was able to go on walks and had a way to take out the energy. Her children took amazing care of our pup as well! Loved the family effort that came from the household!

Our yorkie-poo LOVED Cindy! She was the perfect Rover for him. She spoiled him and treated him as her own fur baby. It was nice having a Rover who focuses her attention on one dog at a time in her home, so we didn’t need to worry about how he would interact with unfamiliar dogs. We felt very confident in her care and trusted her as she is a long term resident in the community. She also sent some cute pictures of our Franklin! Thank you, Cindy! Highly recommend especially for little dogs who need extra attention. We will definitely use Cindy again. 🐕‍🦺

Samantha is really a dog whisperer! Our dog had such a great time I wasn't sure she would want to come home. Samantha is also very organized, stays in touch, sends great photos of your dog with their new friends, and is very attentive to all the dogs needs. Highly recommend.
