“Thank you so much for taking Skaar in last minute! Shannon was very kind, and introduced his dogs to Skaar effectively. He communicated promptly and sent me a video, as requested. Skaar was pooped after his visit. I highly recommend!”
“Needless to say I was very apprehensive leaving Mya for the first time ever with a stranger. However, Rachel calmed my fears and did an excellent job caring for Mya. She sent numerous pictures and texts which assured me that Mya was happy and well cared for. Thanks Rachel! We will be back!!”
“We had the best experience with Angie! Although we were 1st time users of Rover, from the moment we met Angie, we knew our beloved Thunder would be in the best hands possible for his very 1st overnight stay away from home. Angie kept us updated with periodic pics & videos throughout his stay with her, which was such an awesome touch. I hope our next Rover sitter will be able to live up to Angie's standards because she's set the bar very high!!”

“Lindsay was terrific. Jason immediately felt comfortable in her home, climbing up on the coach and rolling around happily. She did a great job providing food and snuggles and walks.”
“This is the first time this pup was left with a sitter and we felt very secure leaving her. We have used Morgan and her family before with our other pup and knew she would be taken care of and pictures were sent daily, along with communication on how she was doing.”

About: I have been involved in caretaking pets through Rover, my private pet sitting business, and through local pet shelters over the course of three years. I have also pet sat for friends and relatives. I am very passionate about the well-being of all animals and have even received training at pet shelters in order to provide optimal care. I have a part time job but can easily provide pet sitting services. My job requires me to work 8 hour shifts two to three times per week. If my work schedule ever interferes with a scheduled visit, I offer additional visits that day free of charge. I love incorporating pet caretaking into my day to day life. It is a big priority for me. I want to care for the pets based on their individual needs. I am here to help you keep them moving and healthy while you are traveling or busy with other important things. I’m very flexible and willing to help however best fits your unique situation.
“Chelsey was a fantastic caretaker for Hawkeye while we were out of town! He loved her fenced in yard and all the walks she took him on. I loved that she sent photos and updates while we were away. She has a lovely home with a nice, fenced in backyard. We will definitely ask Chelsey to take care of our boy again!!”
“Tyler did a fantastic job! Jason had a blast supervising workouts and taking naps on couches. Tyler even helped Jason stay calm during a stormy evening. I will definitely use Tyler again.”
“Adriana definitely eased our minds while we were away on vacation! Not only did Adriana care for our family 😻 pet we all love very much, but she also “looked after” the outdoor neighborhood “pets” that sometimes eat & stay in the makeshift “house” built to help them stay as warm as possible during these winter months!! She also went above & beyond doing some light housework inside & outside!”

“Sage was a wonderful sitter! She was attentive to our pets and took care of playing, feeding and their litter boxes and other accidents. She went above and beyond by bringing in our mail, moving objects out of kitty reach and bonding with our animals by holding them and playing with them. She kept us updated daily with detailed notes and pictures. We would definitely have her watch our kitties again and would highly recommend to others! Thank you so much!”
About: I grew up with both cats and dogs in my family home. As an adult, I've primarily taken care of cats; both mine and others. The care consisted of daily feeding, litter care, basic grooming (yes, even baths!) and administering medication. I have seen signs of infection, disease, and injuries and I know how to address most common ones. Additionally, I am very attentive to body language. You could say I'm fluent in feline! From introverted and antisocial to boisterous and talkative, I am a lover of all types!

“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!!!!”

About: With over a decade of dedicated pet care experience, I've honed my skills as a compassionate caregiver. My journey began with my best friend, Franklin, a thirteen-year-old dog whose loyalty has taught me the true meaning of responsibility and empathy. From late-night walks to soothing belly rubs, I've embraced every moment, cherishing the bond we share. Ultimately, our animals aren't just pets; they're family. We treat them like family, spoil them like family, and love them like family. You can rely on me to go above and beyond for your furry friends! Rest assured, I am committed to providing your animals with the exceptional care they deserve, mirroring the love and attention I give my best friend. As a teacher, I cherish my breaks and am eager to fill them with something I'm genuinely passionate about, ensuring our pets live their happiest lives possible! In both my home and my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a nurturing environment where pets feel comfortable and loved. This includes regular feeding schedules, ample exercise tailored to their needs, and plenty of playtime and affection. Additionally, I am able to maintain open communication with pet owners to ensure their specific preferences and requirements are met.
About: I grew up with dogs and love them! I am a current dog mom to a spunky 3 year old golden retriever. We spent two years training him in home and out. I am currently a work from home employee so I am happy to let the pups out at any time of the day and can walk them after work. I have a decent sized fenced in back yard for the dogs to play in! My dog is super friendly and will love having play dates. He is neutered as well!
“Angie watched both our dogs on short notice when we were in town for a funeral. Much better than trying to manage them in the car, and we are so appreciative! Highly communicative, and highly recommend Angie for any dog sitting needs.”
“Baylee is wonderful. I trust her completely with my elderly dog. She's very knowledgeable about the proper way to introduce dogs to each other and it's obvious she cares deeply about animals”
“We were blessed to have found Morgan and family to take care of our dog, Charlie. They were so friendly and welcoming! Communication throughout was excellent. She even included some fun photos. The professionalism was impeccable! We highly recommend using Morgan!”
“Jenny and Remy were great hosts! We were a bit nervous for our first day, and appreciated Jenny providing some updates throughout the day. Looking forward to future stays!”

We could tell Mabel enjoyed here stay as she had to go give Jan hugs before we left. We will definetly use jan again!”
About: I am happy to help you and your family in anyway I can! I keep my rates low so your pet can get quality individualized care at a reasonable cost. My husband and I adopted a black lab mix from the humane society. We are training her to be a therapy dog. Growing up I had a variety of small breed dogs. We also have a cat adopted from Cedar Bend. We recently moved into our first house and have a fenced in yard. We also live close to paw park. I can stop in and check on your furry friend, give them a bathroom break, play with them, feed them, and do any other cares you request. We can board dogs or cats on the weekend if they are potty trained and get along well with our cat and dog. I work from home so I am free for daycare. Looking forward to working with you soon! I have a fenced in yard. We have a black lab mix and a cat to keep your pet company. We enjoy all the extra cuddles and play time when we host a pet. I am currently working from home and am able to take care of pets during the week and on the weekends. We are flexible with pick up/drop off. We let our dog go outside to the bathroom and/or to play in our fenced in yard every 4 hours minimally. She is welcome on the furniture. If we are on a walk she’s always on the leash.
About: Since I was young, I have always been around pets of all sizes. My parents had dogs of all types and sizes which range from a large German Shepherd/Siberian husky mix all the way down to a cute little Cockapoo. We love on all of our animals and treat them just as family, they are our entire world! Throughout the time, I got my fair share of walking the dogs daily, feeding them morning and night (unless they were a puppy that required more) and just being able to love on them all the time! I have raised all 4 dogs alongside my family so I am aware of what to do in circumstances! Walking dogs is a great time for both me and your dog because they get exercise and I get to relax with nature and a pup! Caring for dogs and seeing their tails wag when their owner or loved one comes in the door is one of the sweetest things to see! I'm currently a student at UNI and have a part time job in Waterloo. Having the flexibility in my own schedule allows me to pay more attention and care towards your furry friend! I have a fenced in yard that is big enough for even large dogs to burn off tremendous energy as well as an open floor plan. This allows for the dogs to not feel cramped up and have enough space to lay and play indoors as well.
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: 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: Over the past several years I have helped care for family and friend’s pets. I currently have 4 chaotic cats. I’ve always loved looking after our 4 legged friends! I am currently doing factory work so my schedule is a bit more limited. I am fully available three days of the week, and the other four I am available 3:30-10pm. I can walk dogs as needed, as well as provide the attention and play that they need. I am also able to ensure all the owners rules or guidelines are kept to standard.
About: Been doing this for 7 years now and absolutely love it. I take in all sizes and breeds of dogs and have recently fenced in my backyard. Your pets will get the best 1 on 1 care at my house. I work full time during the week. The dogs will have free run of my upstairs or if you prefer they be in a kennel I can accommodate that too I recently fenced in my backyard. Huge play area for the dogs to run and play . I will provide the best 1 on 1 care for them
“Tee-Tee was amazing with Aspen and Ziggy. Ziggy is a large rescue with big feelings sometimes. I know others have had unfortunate experiences with sitters or walkers, but Tee-Tee is exceptional and will be brought back whenever our schedules align.”
About: Id love to come back as my own pet in the future. Both my mini aussie and my standard size Aussie basically run the place. Im just allowed to live here. My mini aussie loves cats and playing fetch like it is his job. We take him absolutely everywhere because he has become our baby. Tilly loves every dog and person she's ever met and has a very goofy personality. We have a lot of fun playing fetch or frisbee in our yard. Their toy collection is crazy impressive and seems to be the staple decoration around the house. Come visit to meet our pet friendly home I am a stay at home mom to a 2 year old farm boy and a happy 6 month old baby girl. We love to be outside or go for walks! Dogs are his absolute favorite as they make him laugh and laugh!! Our dogs are early risers and we usually get up with them around 6 am for breakfast! We take them on a walk or have our breakfast with them outside before their morning naps on the couch! They go out as many times as they want and share cuddles and attention throughout the day. They play clean up crew around the baby's meals which is great for all involved! We play fetch after dinner and spend most of the night outside together before the dogs snuggle up with us in bed. And repeat :) Weekends usually consist of a special car ride to get coffee and donuts or just sight see
About: I recently graduated with my Masters in social work and am practicing as a mental health therapist with a flexible schedule. I have had a few cats growing up and still have 2 dogs back home. I currently have 3 cats and are my fur babies! I have not only played and taken care of them most of my life, but also have helped train service dogs at Retrieving Freedom as a part of one of my college classes. Giving them food, baths, and bringing them on long walks, or to a park to play are all things that I have experience with due to being a pet owner myself. I have the ability to work from home some days as I am working to build a client case load, and usually am in the office no more than 4-6hours at a time. Watching and caring for pets would fit well into my schedule as I have most early mornings, some afternoons and later in the evenings free. I am just starting my career as a therapist and love caring for animals in my free time. Pet sitting works well with my schedule as I create my own schedule every week around when I have clients. I make sure I obtain as much information from the owner beforehand and do meet and greets to ensure safety for when I care for their pets.
