“Thank you so much for such a great first time experience. We appreciate the daily updated and pictures. My Gandalf will definitely visit again in the future. Thanks again.”

“Jessica watched Tripper for us during our most recent trip out of town. It was our first time boarding Tripper anywhere, and he had a blast. He met and played with her dog Rip and cat Ghost as well as the other dogs she watched during his 5-day stay. He came home tired and happy. She communicated and was flexible with drop-off and pick-up, and sent us updates to let us know how Tripper was doing. We would absolutely love to board with her again. We highly recommend her!”

“Christopher been nothing but amazing with our pups. He’s gone above and beyond what we expected and that’s why he will always be our go to person. He’s done an amazing job I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs a sitter to watch over ur precious loved one”

“Kimberlee provided an amazing home for my Oakley to stay at! She took such great care of my dog and made the whole experience stress-free. I could tell Oakley was happy, comfortable, and well loved while I was away. Kimberlee kept me updated and went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring Rover sitter!”

“Osvaldo and his wife were amazing!! They sent lots of pictures, videos and updates on how our dogs were doing. They went on many walks, had play time outside with their dogs and playtime inside. They made our trip way less stressful knowing our dogs were being taken care of.”
“Katrina was amazing! She sent so many updates. She treated our dog like family. He had so much fun playing with the other dogs visiting and was very worn out when he got home! Very trustworthy and great communication! Will definitely book again.”

“My wife and I left the country for about 10 days and were worried because we have never left our dog with strangers or in a kennel because he is older and adopted. He has a weird routine and glaucoma so he needed a little extra care but they handled him perfectly and he fit right into their routine. Melanie and her family saved us 100%! They constantly sent us pics and updates on him which made us feel better. They took care of him as if he was part of their family and we greatly appreciate it. 10/10!”

“Samantha and her husband Raheem took such good care of my baby. He can be quite anxious and high energy and they made sure he got plenty of exercise and attention. She had great communication throughout the stay and sent plenty of adorable photo updates. My boy is not the easiest dog to watch, and they were amazing!!! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter. They treat your pup like their own!”

“Sarah was fantastic! We really appreciated that she kept us up to date and sent pictures every time she came over. She let us know how the cats were and left a summary of what she did. We will definitely be utilizing her services again!”


“Lauren was fantastic! Both my cats usually don’t come out for a stranger, but one of my cats came out to cuddle with Lauren!!!! Lauren truely cares about our fur babies!!!! Will definitely welcome her back into my home!!”

“Sylvia won the trust of even our shyest with ease and our feeble old senior cat seemed not a bit stressed when we returned. It seemed like the pet areas were cleaner than we left them and all instructions were followed to a tee. The picture reports were fun and reassuring. 10 of 10.”


“Angie immediately jumped in when I found myself in a predicament without coverage for my medically high needs cat. It was short notice and we were a new client and yet Angie was willing to take care of her. NO ONE and I mean NO ONE other than myself has been able to give my cat her medications… yet somehow Angie was able to do it. She came at the agreed upon times like clockwork and communicated so well while I was gone. I am so thankful to have found someone to help care for my cat when I have to be gone. Will definitely be using Angie again when the need arises!!!”


About: My grandfather was at veterinarian for 50 years. I fortunately got to grow up living with them & was able to see animals of all ages, shapes & sizes. In my own adult life, i have 4 of my own animals who I treat better than myself 🤣 i love them to pieces and always do my best to ensure their needs are met. You can expect me to do the same for you!

About: I have plenty of cat sitting experience under my belt including years of professional pet care in a vet clinic and boarding facility. Whether your baby wants all the love or nothing to do with me, you can be assured your cat will be well cared for while you’re away. With one of my own cats being an extra spicy torti with a classic “tortitude”, I understand how different each cat can be. Reading body language and respecting their boundaries is key to caring for cats. Don’t be shy with any “unusual” requests or asks that may make you feel more comfortable, I’m the one for the job!

About: I have experience caring for cats with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I understand the importance of keeping them comfortable in their own environment. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to details like feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and giving cats space when they need it. My goal is to make every cat feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owner is away.
“Cynthia took exactly care of my two boys (cats). They felt right at home and she kept me updated on their well being with the cutest photos. She’s kind, considerate and an all round wonderful person. I highly recommend her services.”
“Our elderly cat appreciates the play time and care Adrianne gives to her when we're away for the weekend. Our cats mood is much better when we return home when we have Adrianne check on her while we're gone. We appreciate how Adrianne gives Zoey attention.”


About: I've taken care of dogs of all sizes, cats and numerous other household companions. I have roughly 14 years of pet care experience which includes personal, professional and volunteer experience. I have experience with puppies and geriatric dogs. I have taken courses in pet first aid and advanced pet handling. I am a proud mom to two amazing cats (Wilson and Maria) who are Felv+ so I have advanced knowledge regarding the care of cats with chronic illness.

About: I have taken care of cats of every kind since I was 12. Both my own family’s cats as well as those belonging to friends and family. I am equipped to scoop and change litter; feed any specific diet; and provide the right amounts of play and chill cuddle time whenever needed. If your cats are shy and don’t like sitters, I completely understand and won’t push them. I have cared for long-haired cats, short-haired and short-tempered ones, gentle ones, and shy and fearful ones. I have experience administering medication as well, and safely adventuring outside if your cat enjoys that. Anything your cat needs, I will strive to provide it for them.
About: Hi! I'm Ross, I grew up having Labrador Retrievers as family pets and have always had a strong love of dogs. I like all dogs, big or small! I'm great at responding to a pets needs. I love to give them the attention and play that they want while maintaining appropriate disciple/doggie boundaries ( like not jumping up on strangers). I am good at reading dogs body language which helps to know if they are tired, playful, need to go to the bathroom, not feeling well, or just need some attention! Working from home gives me extra flexibilty to give the pups extra attention when they need it. Regardless of the setting I am able to follow the guidelines that you have set up for your pet. I look forward to getting to know your dogs!!

“This was an amazing experience! I needed to make a trip to Ankeny and couldn’t leave my dog home for that long of a time so I hopped on this app and found her, so glad I did! He was a little scared at first but shortly made himself at home. Good communication and she sent photos! Made me feel good 💕I will be contacting Meagan again!”


“Angie was so great with our guy! She’s extremely accommodating to schedule changes and was exactly what we needed while back visiting family. If we come back this fall she will be the first one we check for availability!”

“Cynthia did a fantastic job of taking care of our dog. She sent updates and even video of our dog playing outside and looking very happy. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you for taking such good care of Golde!”

“We had booked a full day of daycare to allow our shy pup to get accustomed to the home in preparation for an upcoming trip. Sara and her family provided a cozy, caring environment for my dog, who got a lot of pets and love and we were sent photos during the day. I feel comfortable and happy bringing her back to enjoy this home away from home while we go out of town.”

“Jaden has an obvious love for dogs! He is very knowledgeable about handling different breeds and handling them together. Jaden went out of his way to accommodate my schedule as well as my boy Duke's special needs. I wish I never had to be without my bud, but when I do I will leave him with someone like Jaden!”

“My dog had a great first daycare experience with Mackenzie and Anthony. He’s had issues with anxiety with sitters in the past, and did very well with them and their 2 dogs. I highly recommend.”

“This was literally the best experience ever! She was always updating me and took lots of pictures. Her and her family took such great care of my puppy and treated her like their own. I seriously recommend and I will definitely be bringing my puppy back!”

“Alexandra is great with Winnie and very communicative. She understood concerns I had and ensures Winnie gets a good mix of play and rest time. I’m not sure Winnie wants to leave when I come pick her up! She clearly enjoys her time here.”

About: I’ve always been around cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve mastered the process of giving medications. I’ve volunteered in a shelter some years ago and I learned a lot while I was there. I’ve trained all of my current and past pets and even helped some friends with theirs. I craft my own pet food in my kitchen to ensure all nutrients are available to them. I take pet health to a very serious level! Currently, I’m just in school So I have plenty of time. I’m available Mon- sun at 10am, 3pm, and anytime after 5pm! Friday is the only day that I’m available at 11am rather than 10am but I’m free for the day after 11am. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I take time to learn their personality, feeding schedule, litter habits, and any specific needs before caring for them. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I’m also attentive to doors, windows, plants, and anything else a curious pet could get into. I give pets plenty of attention and playtime while also respecting them when they need space. If they need medication or any extra care, I’m comfortable handling that as well.
“Kimberley was a PERFECT choice for us! Such a sweet person and she kept him 8.5 hours for his first visit which is a long time to have a 4 month old puppy! She sent several photos and videos which was so reassuring.”

About: NOTE: Off during summer, but I work weekdays throughout the school year. Still available during school, but pets will be at home without me on weekdays for about 7 hours. I have owned and cared for dogs for over 25 years. I have cared for small dogs <25 pounds all the way up to large sized Great Danes > 200 pounds. I have been fostering dogs for Safe Paws Iowa for the past 4 years. I am available for a large portion of the summer because I only coach softball outside of the school year. I am very active and would love to share that energy with dogs! Walking, jogging, or just playing in the doggy pool is no issue at all. My Golden loves to play if yours does! If not, I have the space to separate dogs too. Lastly, I have experience giving dogs meds as some of the dogs in my care have different long term conditions. Please reach out with any questions! Can’t wait to meet your precious pups! Please contact me if you have any remaining questions! I am mostly free over the summer and weekends. I run errands or make plans outside of when I’m taking care of pets. Pet care is my priority while hosting! I have a fenced in yard, my own can join in play if wanted, I have gates/doors and a finished lower level where I can separate dogs if need be, and have multiple kennels. I allow dogs on furniture, but can follow owner house rules.

“Samantha is so great to work with! She follows directions perfectly and takes excellent care of all the (3) dogs we’ve had her sit for (doggie day care). She communicates effectively and timely and we never have to worry.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since 2005 my parents had 3 ridgbacks and I haven't known a time when im not the guy to watch someone's beloved animal! Might as well get paid to do something i love! I am a disabled US Navy Veteran in my late 30s.

“They are so lovely! A massive yard for Ace to run in which he definitely needed. Her dogs are so friendly and playful. Her children are also very helpful and respectful in asking if they can give my dog one of their dog toys. Will definitely be coming back!”

“This was our second time using Rover, and we were initially nervous about leaving our two dogs with someone new. However, Beth quickly put us at ease, making us feel comfortable about her taking care of our pets for the day. She did a great job, and we would happily have her watch them again.”

“Kelley did a wonderful job taking care of our 15 year old dog, including mealtime and medicine. Kelly is kind and responsible and we could tell that Adi felt comfortable in her home. 5 out of 5 stars. We highly recommend.”

About: New to Rover, not new to pet care. My golden retriever Annabelle has trained me well. I know the drill: the zoomies that need burning off, the "I definitely didn't just eat" stare, the way every dog thinks their routine is sacred (it is). I've also got two guinea pigs, Mimzy and Pip, so I'm no stranger to smaller, more delicate care too, if that's ever part of the mix. I care for pets of all shapes, sizes, and species. Big, small, fluffy, scaly, I've got you! I help pet parents actually enjoy their time away with peace of mind that their animals are okay. Here's how: 📸 Photo & video updates 🚶 Walks 🏠 Multi-pet households 💊 Medication administration 🧓 Senior pet care 🍽️ Picky eaters & special diets 🐾 Comfortable with reptiles & small animals too I work from home with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my day. Walks around the neighborhood are already part of this routine, and I'd love to bring your dog along! When I care for your pets, their safety is my number one priority. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure so pets can't slip out unexpectedly. I keep your contact details on hand at all times, and I do a quick safety check of the space before I leave. If anything ever went wrong, I'd contact you immediately and get your pet to a vet right away.

“Kylee has been the sweetest! Our dogs absolutely love her. She walks my bigger dog but still lets out my little dog to go potty. If that’s not working with you, I don’t know what is!”

About: Dependable to walk, feed & bathe dogs/cats. Skills in senior care, allergy care. Have my own ranging from 2yrs-17yrs. 2 cats & 2 dogs 🤍 I’m a teacher with all summer available all day and night & during school year with afternoon time frames. Very quick availability, responses & communication. Dependable, patient, caring & loving towards animals are my top skills regarding dogs/cats. Experienced in feeding, walking, bathing and litter changes. Quality time and care. I have 2 adopted dogs, 1 adopted elder cat & a family cat.
“Kent is amazing! He goes above and beyond for my dog. He is an excellent communicator and keeps me informed with anything I may need to know about my dog. He cares deeply for animals and is so trustworthy and genuine. I highly recommend Kent and we are so lucky we found him!”

About: Hiii my name is Xochil, I am 26 years old, new to Rover, and am a fellow pet parent with 2 spoiled kitties and a bearded dragon of my own. I have years of pet sitting experience under my belt including professional pet care at a vet clinic and boarding facility. Along with growing up in a house full of a variety of different animals has made me a natural caregiver for most, if not all pets! Having the hands on experience with all sorts of breeds and temperaments, you can be assured your pet will be safe with me. If there’s anything I’ve learned, it’s the understanding that each and every pet is different and one approach might not work for all, instead adjusting to each of your pets’ unique needs. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it is to find someone to care for your babies when you're away so I am very flexible and understanding to any requests that may make you feel more comfortable- nothings off the table so please ask away! I look forward to hearing for you. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of availability for your fur babies! At this time, I do not provide in home boarding. I am good at monitoring stools and eating habits, always on the look out for any concerns. I am very weary of entering and exiting homes so pets can not slip out. Outside of the house, I am extra alert for off-leash dogs and other wildlife that may pose issues. If a problem arises with another dog, I know methods of separation and carry dog deterrent spray. I’m always present and in tune with their body language to make sure they’re comfortable and not showing any signs of distress or possible health concerns. The communication line is always open and you will receive plenty of photos with each visit so you can know for certain everything is looking okay. When I’m with your pet, it’s all about your pet and only your pet! I will never do something you have not listed in your instructions- the more in depth the instructions, the better!
About: I've had cats my entire life, and my husband and I currently have two amazing but SUPER high energy little kitties named Eli and Finn. We are very obsessed, and they're spoiled! I have grown up in a very close, tight-knit family with LOTS of dogs and cats, and I've pet-sat more times than I can count. I LOVE animals and they tend to like me as well. I have experience with feeding, medicine, walking, vet visits, picking up animals from pet hotels, etc. I pet sit, house sit, and babysit for a lot of my family and friends, have been a nanny to my godson who has medical complications, and am well-trusted. My husband and I are going through fertility treatments, and the profit from my pet-sitting business will be supporting us in building our family! We would deeply appreciate your support while your pets receive great care in exchange! I'm in ministry school to become a hospital/hospice chaplain, a worship leader, and an entrepreneur, so my schedule is very flexible! I look forward to meeting your schedule needs. I am not able to keep pets at my home. I am able to go to the house site and take care of your fur babies, however, and spend time at your place to give your darlings some affection, give medicine, or whatever else you need done!
About: I’ve had for dogs of every age and size for my entire life, but have been a serious caretaker of them for about 10 years. I can give medicines including insulin shots, and will heed every dietary and exercise need given to me. I’m currently working full-time, however I commute from Ames to Des Moines every day so I am used to driving long distances. I also have a very flexible schedule and can work from home if I can give at least 2-3 days notice; I can leave for long periods at lunch; and I can get off work early if a drop-in visit is needed before 4:00. I can also stay as late as necessary into the evening, as long as expectations are communicated beforehand. I am extremely communicative and I will let my clients know if I am early, behind, or unable to complete a task. I cannot take pets into my apartment or workplace, however, I have experience with strictly and loosely trained animals in just about every situation under the sun. I am comfortable staying the night in a well secured home, or taking a few minutes to play with the pet(s) in the middle of the day. I am extremely clean and organized and will strive to leave my clients’ homes in the same shape or cleaner in case there are any accidents, as I am also well-versed in cleaning up after any mishaps from being left alone or too excited.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for my own Vizsla. He’s an active dog, so I’m very comfortable keeping up with high-energy pups and providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I also regularly run long distances with my dog, so I’d love to take your pup along for an adventure or simply give them a fun, active walk! Most importantly, I’m responsible, attentive, and committed to making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. 🐶🐾 I currently work part time as a personal trainer most afternoons from approximately 3-8pm on week days, and 8am-noon on weekends! So I will be most available to exercise/ check in on your pup in the early mornings or late nights!😊 I live on a small lake in Bondurant with a fenced in yard and a VERY friendly Vizsla puppy named Cash!! I’ve loved every dog I have met and have never felt uncomfortable or intimidated by any behaviors. Cash and I are extremely active as well whether it’s running marathons, bicycling, swimming, or just playing around and I transfer over this experience with every dog that I provide for!😊

About: Everyone knows me as the dog-obsessed friend. I've never met a dog I didn't have a connection with. Dogs seem to sense that something is different about me and that I'm the one to go to for extra love and pets. I have particular experience with and compassion for senior dogs. My husband and I rescued an 8 year old black Lhasa Apso in Chicago and got to spend 4 wonderful years making sure her remaining time was filled with love and happiness. That experience opened our hearts and minds to just how special a relationship with an older dog can be, and is what inspired us to open our home to fostering animals. When I'm not fostering or dog sitting, I'm playing with my neph-pups, seeing what the neighborhood dogs are up to, or watching funny dog videos online. I work from home full time as a freelance illustrator and graphic designer. I am able to set my own schedule allowing me the flexibility to be available for all your pet's needs. Our home has a spacious fenced-in backyard for lots of running (plus some daring squirrels and rabbits around that seem to want to be chased). We have an adjustable crate for varying sized fur babies that I line with comfy blankets and padding. We keep the crate in our guest room with a noise machine and overhead fan so they feel comfortable and safe. For dogs who are used to sleeping in a bed, we forego the crate and just let a pup snooze right on the guest bed. If it's your home, I follow your instructions to make sure your pet is as comfortable and happy as if you were still there. I'm also a big photo taker! I will provide pup-dates multiple times a day until you tell me to stop.
About: I’ve had dogs around my whole life! I grew up with two black labs and a terrier mix. I now have my own dog, a golden doodle named Oakley. He is 2 and he is my whole world. I will care for all your pets as well as I care for mine because I know they are our world! I currently work a 8-5 job as a speech therapist with kids, but would be a happy to help after work with any requests you may have and weekends! I will care for your pets AND your home as I would hope someone would care for mine. I have used Rovers of my own for my Oakley and am comfortable with any service you are requesting. I will make sure all of your dogs needs are met.

I have roughly 14 years of pet care experience which includes personal, professional and volunteer experience. I have experience with puppies and geriatric dogs. I have taken courses in pet first aid and advanced pet handling. I'm currently an online full time student, so I have plenty of time to love and take care of your fur babies. I have open availability most days and am more than happy to work out a one-time, temporary, or long-term schedule with you. I offer dog walking, drop in visits and overnight (in clients home) pet sitting visits and can provide care during the holidays! I am in the process of obtaining my dog training certification. At this time, I can only provide care in client's homes. I will follow all instructions given regarding scheduling, care, and safety with your pets in your home.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and currently have four cats that I’ve cared for for the past four years. Growing up, my family always had dogs ranging from small to large breeds, so I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities. I’ve also helped care for family members’ dogs over the years, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and truly enjoy being around animals. I always try to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for just like they would at home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I’m already used to caring for animals every day with my own pets. I’m a teacher, so during the summers I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to help with walks, drop-ins, feedings, or overnight care. I enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I genuinely look forward to being part of my routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention and playtime, and go on walks or potty breaks as needed. I also make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m respectful of each client’s home and always keep things clean, organized, and well cared for.
