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.

We had a wedding outside of town and didn’t want to leave our dog In the hotel for 10+ hours so we boarded him with Angela and her family. They are the best! Such nice people and did an amazing job with Winston. Got a few pictures and heard he had a great time. Highly recommend you use them whenever you have a need !

This is our first Rover booking and we couldn't be happier. Brooke did an excellent job of making sure our "new to us" rescue dog had a good experience. Amee got to read stories at bedtime and take walks with the family. She'll be back for more fun.

About: I have had a lot of experience with dogs over the years and am just getting started with pet sitting. My priority is providing a safe and caring home for your pup while they are in my care. I currently have a yellow lab mix who loves other dogs. I have some experience with high energy dogs, nervous dogs, giving medicines, and helping finicky dogs eat. I work full time, but have a flexible job that will allow me to let your dog out as needed. Our routine includes three walks a day so I will make sure your pup is exercised. I am home evenings to spend with your dog. Weekends are the best times for me to board and your pup will be sure to get a lovely walk or hike! I have a comfortable and dog friendly apartment and access to a fenced yard/private dog park to play in. My yellow lab will love to keep your dog company, play, or show your dog the best places to nap. I can be flexible with whatever care instructions you need.

We've used many sitters from Rover - Amy and Casey are one of our new favorites. Prior to marriage and my twins, I did a lot of work with rescue dogs, and Amy/Casey checked all the right boxes for me at our meet and greet. During our overseas trip, they sent a ton of pics and videos, which greatly helped our family. They went over and beyond in many ways; we will definitely use again.

We cannot express how grateful we are to have had Izabelle as our cat sitter! She came twice a day to care for our five cats, one of whom needed special care. Izabelle went above and beyond in her duties. Each visit was meticulously attended to, and Izabelle provided delightful photographs of the cats after each visit, which was truly appreciated. Her dedication, care, and attention to detail were evident in everything she did. When we came back from the trip, we found the cats and the house in great shape. We highly recommend Izabelle to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Izabelle, for your marvelous work!

My Sunny warmed up to her and let her pet him. I would recommend Allyson if you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur babies while you’re away. I have complete confidence in her and would use her again. 😽👍👍

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my whole life - my own growing up on the family farm, as well as for family, friends and neighbors. I’m currently working full-time during the week but have a flexible schedule that allows for regular drop in visits. Boarding services available on weekends and weekdays after 3 pm. I have a very friendly, large dog and we enjoy taking multiple walks every day and playing in the yard (not fenced in). I can easily adapt to your pet’s needs and schedule as well.

Michelle went above and beyond to help our pets and check on our house as well. The pet photos she sent us daily meant a great deal to our family.

We are beyond grateful for Olivia! She took such amazing care of our cat, Mochi, and truly went above and beyond. Her communication was wonderful, she sent frequent photo updates that made us smile every time, and it was so reassuring to see how happy and relaxed Mochi looked with her. When a snowstorm hit, Olivia even stayed overnight to make sure he was safe and could be fed! We felt completely at ease on our trip knowing Mochi was in such loving, capable hands. Olivia is the best, and we cannot recommend her enough, 10/10! We will absolutely be booking with her again :)

About: Hi! My name is Allison, and I would love to care for your fur family member! I have grown up around dogs and have been the primary caretaker for our family pets. Not only have I cared for our family dogs (labs & golden retrievers), but I have also dog-sat and walked dogs for other family members and friends since I was 10 years old. I have experience with other animals as well. I am currently taking a summer college course (M-Th mornings) and have late morining though early evening availability. I have some weekend availability as well. I believe compassion, respect, and structure are the keys to keeping your pet safe. My goal is to do what is right for the animals in my care while building a good relationship with their human parents. I will treat your fur family members and their homes with respect and care.

Thank you so much for watching Grover. Nothing is better than bringing home a tired and cuddly puppy. I enjoyed talking with you both and I have to admit I had a little bit of a teary moment on my way home. The environment of your backyard with friends and family as well as just your welcoming energy reminded me so much of what it was like when my Uncle Ryan was still around. He passed unexpectedly in 2016, leaving behind my Aunt Krista and their two young girls, Claire was 7 and Hannah was 5. My aunt and uncle loved each other so deeply and enjoyed hosting family and friends regularly. I am extremely grateful that you reminded me of those memories I had forgotten about. Please continue to have people over and share these moments with each other! So again, thank you for proving a loving home for my puppy to stay while also bringing back some wonderful memories for me, even though it was unknowingly. Grover and I will 100% be back to visit again!

About: I’ve taken care of fur babies of all kinds since before I could walk. I grew up with a dog and cat always in tow. I lived in the country, so learned fast that the world can be hard for an animal, thus beginning my rehab ‘career’. As I got older, I pet sat for neighbors and family friends. In my mid 20s I trained as a vet tech, prepping animals for surgery, giving vaccinations, nail trims, etc. Until the ISU Wildlife Clinic closed, I volunteered there, learning more care for wild native animals. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, I can’t imagine life without animals. I currently have a senior border collie named Lola, she has arthritis so sometimes she needs help getting around and I’m always willing to help my girl. I also have a senior cat. Currently I’m a doordash/grub hub driver, so I literally am free 24/7 to care for your pets! I will prioritize Rover over delivery, so I can work with any schedule you need. I’m available for repeat needs (several walks a week, drop ins, etc). I live in a duplex with a yard. For me to board a pet, they would need to get along with my dog, and she can honestly be a bit grumpy meeting new dogs, so I feel going to the client’s home would be best. I will respect your home and follow whatever instructions you have for the care of your pets.

Cynthia took great care of our dog, Maizy! She went above and beyond to make sure was Maizy was comfortable and engaged. Maizy can be a picky eater and Cynthia even got her to eat a full meal. She was lovey to communicate with, was very responsive, and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely be dropping our pup off with her again!

I can’t thank Meagan enough for taking care of my Joey today. It was me and my fur babies first dog sitting experience with Rover. Meagan made him feel welcome the minute we walked in the door, reached out and provided updates with pictures during the day, along with helping Joey socialize with dogs in her home. I look forward to rebooking with her the future. thank you so much! Kathy

About: I have personally had a pet or 3 since I was 13 years old. I begged for a cat for years and once I got one, I never have been without at least one pet. I have been volunteering with the ARL since 2005. I have had 30+ foster dogs through them as well. I just love animals. I do have weekends blocked but just ask about availability! I am retired. I enjoy going for walks with dogs and depending on the dog spending time outside in my fenced in backyard. I have a 6 foot fence. Your dog will have the ability to be part of our family and our family pets are on our furniture. We do separate our home animals, fosters and house guests at night. The "regulars" get to sleep in our beds while our guests get other accommodations. It makes for better harmony for us. Because we foster on a regular basis our animals are very used to different dogs coming into our home. Our home is pretty quiet and relaxing.

About: I have over 2000 hours caring for shelter cats. I am the guardian of five cats. I'm comfortable around shy cats, kittens, old cats, all cats! I can administer simple medication if needed. I'm extremely patient and will take the time to let your cat get comfortable with me, or back away if your cat is stressed. I would love to play with your cat! I love cuddles! I love chillin' from a distance if that's what your cat needs. I'm a responsible adult and will follow the directions you leave for me. Your trip away from home will be worry-free in my care. I can also provide excellent care for small animals. Growing up I had a summer job caring for rabbits and a rabbit of my own who lived to be 12 years old! I also had a pet guinea pig named Oreo. I know how hard it is to find sitters for "exotic" pets. I grew up with family members with dogs (Rocky, Max, Snick, and Ginger) and have shelter experience with dogs as well. I want to meet your doggo! I have flexible job hours and can work around your schedule. I have a car and am not afraid to drive in inclement weather conditions. With my own cats, I feed them twice per day and give them hours of cuddle time. My experience at animal shelters has given me a lot of experience approaching cats with different personality types.

About: I have always loved animals and caring for them. I grew up taking care of mostly dogs, but I have experience with other animals like cats, goats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I love meeting new animals and helping care for them. I am finishing my degree at Iowa state and will graduate in August. I am not sure what I want to do after I graduate, so I’m filling my schedule with pet sitting. I have a very open schedule for a while until I figure out what’s next for me. I can visit pets or stay throughout the day with pets at their homes, but I am not available to stay overnight. I treat animals as my own and truly love getting to meet and work with animals. I make sure to ask questions before giving treats or doing anything that pet owners might differ on. I make sure to stick to whatever schedule pets are used to and follow specific instructions regarding their needs. I provide daily updates and pictures so you know what’s going on and how pets are doing.

About: From keeping care of my family pets in the absence of my parents at a young age to spending late nights as a sitter for neighbors’ dogs, I have taken careful care of dogs in all shapes and sizes since I was twelve. I love snuggling and bonding with dogs, and I adore being there for them when their furball parents are unable to be with them. I’m a part-time worker at a hotel on Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I work the evening shifts from 3-11pm. On Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I’m available to spend time with your pups all day! I love walking, and I would love to take your dog on my daily five mile walk with me as a fluffy partner in crime. I strive to create a friendly and loving environment for the doggies I watch. By providing them with quality time such as walking, playing with toys, or simply lying on the couch together, I will give your pup a space of peace and care while you’re away.

About: I’ve watched many dogs and two cats over the past 4 years usually over family friend vacations. I’ve worked with reactive dogs as well as two young puppies. I spoil my dogs and would be happy to treat your pets with just as much love! I am a part time college student so I have a TON of time to pet sit! As I prepare for dental school in the fall, I will also be free for summer work. I love staying with dogs in either an environment they are used to or my own depending on what the pet parent prefers! There is a fenced in dog park behind my apartment that is never occupied where I run around with dogs. If it is occupied, I would walk around the park nearby with lots to smell on the trail. I also love giving dog baths, so that could totally be included!

About: Animals hold a special place in my soul that I can't describe. Each pet brings me joy to take care of. I've had a few pets over the years; right now a 7 year old Bichon Frise/Shih Tzu named Snoopy. I've also worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility for the past two years. I started college as an Art Education major, but quickly changed to Animal Science. My goal is to work as an animal caretaker at the Omaha Zoo. I'm taking 12 credits at Iowa State, so I am busy but my schedule is flexible. I am pretty available to stop in between classes and in the mornings/evenings. Weekends are often free, but sometimes I go visit my family nearby. I have an apartment so I can't take pets to my place. I am available for check-ins and walks obviously. Throughout high school and these past two years, I've been trusted to care for pets in neighbors and strangers homes, and at a dog boarding and daycare facility in Des Moines.

My doodles had such a great time with Meagan in her home! She has a gorgeous spacious backyard for them to run and play in, which they LOVE. My boys always sleep great the night I pick them up, so I know they wore themselves out having fun! I’ll definitely keep using Meagan as a sitter when I’m out of town 🙂

Amanda has a great setup that allows for dogs to meet carefully and so bolters can't run out. She sent lots of pictures and Mango came back happy and tired. Thanks for accommodating us at the last minute!

Roxy was amazing watching Jack, they treated him like one of their own dogs. We will absolutely be coming back! She sent pictures and updates which helped make his first stay easier on me.

Another great stay! Amanda treats our Great Dane Saturn as one of her own! It’s great having someone familiar and comfortable with big dogs!

She did great with Titus! He seemed very happy and after our quick walk before getting in the car he started to head back toward her house. I think he had a good time!

About: I have had a lot of experience with dogs over the years and am just getting started with pet sitting. My priority is providing a safe and caring home for your pup while they are in my care. I currently have a yellow lab mix who loves other dogs. I have some experience with high energy dogs, nervous dogs, giving medicines, and helping finicky dogs eat. I work full time, but have a flexible job that will allow me to let your dog out as needed. Our routine includes three walks a day so I will make sure your pup is exercised. I am home evenings to spend with your dog. Weekends are the best times for me to board and your pup will be sure to get a lovely walk or hike! I have a comfortable and dog friendly apartment and access to a fenced yard/private dog park to play in. My yellow lab will love to keep your dog company, play, or show your dog the best places to nap. I can be flexible with whatever care instructions you need.

We've used many sitters from Rover - Amy and Casey are one of our new favorites. Prior to marriage and my twins, I did a lot of work with rescue dogs, and Amy/Casey checked all the right boxes for me at our meet and greet. During our overseas trip, they sent a ton of pics and videos, which greatly helped our family. They went over and beyond in many ways; we will definitely use again.

Our 2 dogs had a great time during their 1-week stay with Alysha and her family! She was consistently quick to respond and sent pictures daily, which we really appreciated! Our dogs enjoyed the mini pool in her backyard and many treats. We have no complaints from their stay with her! Would re-book if needed in the future!

Kayla is wonderful! Very patient with our girls. While watching them over the weekend, she took them for walks and gave them love and attention. I can tell she did well with the girls, as they were relaxed and not nerved up from Kayla being at our home for the weekend. Thank you Kayla for taking GREAT care of our girls!
