“Jason was an awesome all around dog sitter! He took my puppy for a weekend of boarding on very short notice. He was very responsive and able to quickly get up to speed on my dog’s tendencies and needs. He frequently sent updates throughout the weekend and I could tell was very active and engaged, taking several trips to the dog park and providing treats and toys. His dog Timber was the perfect buddy for my pup to play with all weekend long. I’ll reach out to Jason again for boarding and would recommend to anyone in the area.”
“My Bella actually enjoys going to see them and their dogs! They were able to fit me in at the very last minute for a family emergency and I appreciate that so much! Knowing Bella is happy and well cared for in a time like that means so much! These folks are wonderful.”
“Grace was a perfect fit for our spoiled little girl! Her dog Archer, is a sweet and mellow boy. We rebooked Ellie with Grace when we picked her up on Sunday, for later in the week already. We felt that comfortable with her!”
“Madison was so responsive and considerate! She sent several photos, took our dogs out regularly and kept us posted all along the way. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Jake is definitely the most responsible person I have ever met. He always answered my questions very quickly. My two cats are well looked after by him. He knows how to care for cats with different personalities. When we came to pick up the cat, Jake had already packed the cat's things in advance. My cats get along so well with him, they don't even want to go home! He is really nice. 100% recommend him.”
“Laylah was so great with our dog! We felt great leaving him with her, because it was clear he was loved and well taken care of. When we dropped him off for his second stay with Laylah, he was so excited to see her again.”
“Anastasiia was EXCELLENT!! Communication was great and she included daily pictures and videos. My dog has anxiety during storms and she was very compassionate with him. I couldn’t be happier with the way she treated Chipper!!”
“Avery was great! I was in town for a wedding and Avery was extremely flexible with me as I needed to make last minute changes for my pick up and drop off time! She communicated quickly and sent us picture updates of my dog Rambo! I would definitely recommend her to friends and family!”
“Stacy did an AWESOME job with my 1 year old (LARGE) dog, Jemma. She worked with her on commands that we'd been working on and gave her lots of love! She sent pictures every day and was very easy to work with. She is great with animals and was able to watch Jemma for a week while I was travelling - what a life saver she is!!!!”
“Rizzo had a great visit with Adela. If your dog likes to play and enjoy an expansive fenced backyard, I encourage you to consider Adela. Communication was great and I appreciated her flexibility. Thank you!”
About: I have loved critters of all kinds since childhood. I attended obedience training for my family Rottweiler at age 6, and have cared for many big-breed dogs such as pitbulls, American bulldogs, mastiffs, Great Danes, labs, and more. I have been the trusted pet sitter for friends and family starting as early as middle school, and am also very comfortable around small breeds and senior babies. I have experience with Boston terriers, yorkies, daschunds, beagles, and more. I have and am comfortable with administering necessary meds or topicals for pets with extra health needs. I have also cared for cats, bunnies, fish, and turtles. I am very passionate about rescuing, and happy to discuss any extra care your pet may need due to a life transition like fostering or rescuing. I watched a PETA ad when I was 9 years old and have been vegetarian ever since… I just really love animals! :) I am working part-time from home at the moment, so I am very flexible currently with my schedule. I am typically available in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings! I have a fenced in backyard, and I do not have a dog of my own. I have a dining area with an extra couch that can be sectioned off if needed for a crate or food. I do have a senior cat who is indoor, who is very friendly with dogs. He grew up around my mom’s beagles, so he doesn’t mind company/energy! I can section off my basement stairs and kitchen for safety if needed. I cannot board any cat-aggressive dogs for my cat’s safety. I do not use any non pet-safe cleaners or pest control in my home.
“This was our first time using Rovr and Ali couldn’t have been better to work with. She was very flexible and took great care of our dog. She sent plenty of photos so we knew he was doing okay. I would highly recommend her and know that if we use Rovr again, we will gladly use Ali’s service again.”

About: I have had family cats my whole life and have provided care for them my whole life as well. I got a cat of my own once I moved out. I have also had many experiences cat sitting for friends and neighbors.
“Meredith was an incredibly responsible and caring pet sitter. She took great care of our cats, making sure they were well-fed and comfortable. She even went the extra mile by cleaning their bowls and taking out the trash. Although we booked 30-minute visits, she often stayed longer to spend extra time with our cats. Her communication was excellent—she responded quickly to messages and sent daily photo updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”
About: I love meeting new and different kinds of dogs and cats. Neighbors and friends have trusted me to watch their pets and found me as a reliable pet sitter. I will follow instructions as best I can. I’m currently trying to find a part time job, so for the time being I can do anytime, and I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I have an invisible fence for my dog so she can roam free, I also use a leash when I take her for walks outside of my yard. But I can do whatever your pet needs.
About: I’ve been mama to my weird orange boy cat since I was 13, he is my pride and joy. His name is monkey, aka chicken nugget. I have cared for the feistiest of kittens, the most docile senior babies, and plenty of other kitties along the way. I was the trusted cat sitter both in high school, through college, and still with family and friends. I understand cats and their particularities, boundaries, and quirks. I am gentle with all animals always, and not easily spooked. I enjoy the feeling of winning over shy kitties, and will not judge the amount of toys you have for your non-shy babies.
“Kelsey continues to wind the hearts and paws of our two cats. She has been a godsend in watching the boys when we are away and ensuring that finicky Bebop eats a healthy meal each visit. Also getting Larry to warm up to her, which is no mean feat.”
About: I have experience caring for cats with a variety of personalities, including shy, energetic, and more aggressive cats. Having an aggressive cat of my own has taught me how to be patient, read body language, respect boundaries, and create a calm environment where cats feel safe and comfortable. I also have experience watching other people’s cats and understand the importance of keeping routines consistent, maintaining clean litter boxes, and giving each cat the individual attention they need. I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats and making sure they feel cared for while their owners are away.
About: I have been a cat lover since I was little and have taken care of cats since I was 10. I love them and understand that they need love just like any other animal. I am your person to contact for pet sitting. I will ensure that your cat gets the love and care they need.
About: As both an animal lover and a responsible, dependable person, I take pride in providing exceptional care for every pet I meet. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as pets belonging to family members, and I understand that every animal has unique needs and personalities. I have a 7-year-old and a 12-week-old golden retriever. They mean the world to me, so I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Spending time with animals genuinely brightens my day, and I believe in the physical and emotional benefits of walks, playtime, and quality one-on-one attention. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I don’t see dog sitting as just feeding pets and letting them outside. I love giving dogs enrichment through walks, play, attention, and companionship. I enjoy being active and outside, so your dog won’t just be watched, they’ll be cared for, exercised, and genuinely enjoyed. I am currently a student at the University of Iowa with no job, so I have a very flexible schedule aside from my coursework. I have obligations from 3:30–4:45 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays, but outside of that my focus will be on caring for your pets. My schedule allows me to spend plenty of time at home, provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and make sure they receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. When caring for pets in their home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), potty breaks, playtime, and bedtime routines. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and mental stimulation while also respecting their individual personalities and needs. I will keep your home clean, provide regular updates and photos, and treat both your pets and your home with the same care and respect that I would my own.

I volunteer at an animal shelter on the weekends, and I am also currently working towards a bachelors degree in Animal Science! I am currently a full time student, but I am usually free on the weekends or in the evenings. It definitely depends on the week, but I am very open to trying to make my schedule work with yours! While caring for your pet I will make sure they are enriched both mentally and physically. I plan to do whatever is needed to keep you and your pet happy!

I consider myself a routine customer ?”
About: I grew up on a farm, so I've always been surrounded by animals and have developed a natural ability to care for them. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of animal behavior.

I work from home, which allows me to give your pet my full attention throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I'll be the one taking care of your pet personally, ensuring they get plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles.

We always prioritize the well-being of all pets in our care and will adjust our home environment as needed to meet your pet's needs.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 11. My first dog was a shi tzu so I’m ready to work with pets at any care level. I currently work a full time job but most of my weekends are free for house sitting. And I can fit walks into Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. I always make sure to ask questions about your pets schedule and care routine. I also make sure the pet is comfortable around me before we work together.
About: I am a medical student. I have put all of my efforts towards caring for others and their loved ones. My pet care experience first started when my family got a red-fox laboratory puppy seven years ago. It was a dream come true, something my sister and I had waited for many years. While Bhima, our puppy, was just a bundle of fun, he came with a load of responsibilities. From grooming to bathing to brushing to walking, a lot of the responsibility relied heavily on my sister and I. I hope to care for my rover pets with the same attention to detail, love, and affection, as I have been caring for Bhima over the last four years. I am very active, flexible, and outgoing. I’d love to hear from you and get to know you and your pet! I am available for dog walks during the evenings and weekends! I am flexible based on the needs of the pet, but will need to work around my class schedule! Your pet would be accompanied by my own in my home. I make sure that the environment the pet stays in is safe and comfortable for the pet, and am willing to accommodate any changes that will make the pet more comfortable. I also have a yard that the pet can play in in addition to any walks that I will take the pet on.
About: I grew up with dogs and have raised 2 of my own! I currently have an active 4 y.o. boxer & have an affinity for all kinds of dogs :) I love getting to know people & their dogs. I believe dogs are very special. I am willing to do many activities with your dog to give you peace of mind while away! I’m currently unemployed and on Disability for a genetic, chronic illness. I am healthy, willing and able to be with your dog! I am very flexible but do have to work on some local medical appointments. I prefer to watch or care for your dog in your home. My dog can get territorial in my home & do not want to put either dog in that position. I also prefer to work in a home without cigarette smoke in it.
About: I’ve interacted with all types of animals and shadowed at veterinary clinics since I was a child. In the past few years, I’ve startedi helping pet sit for friends and family for periods ranging from a couple of days to a few weeks. I work 8:30-5 M-F, but have an hour lunch everyday. I have availability and reliable transportation before and after work hours as well. I make sure to follow owner preferences and safety precautions. This can mean making sure a dog stays away from other animals during walks, or making sure there is no trash around the house that the pet could easily get into.
About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals and truly love caring for them. Growing up, even before my family adopted our dog Rylee, I would often visit neighbors just to spend time playing with their dogs, and it’s something I’ve always enjoyed and felt drawn to. Once we brought Rylee home, I learned firsthand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement when caring for a dog. I also believe verbal communication plays a big role in helping dogs feel comfortable, understood, and loved. Over time, I began dog sitting and walking for neighbors in my community. I’ve provided midday walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, always making sure each dog feels safe and happy in their routine. As your dog sitter, my goal is to bring that same care, attention, and positivity into your home, so both you and your pet can feel relaxed and confident while you’re away. I’m currently preparing for the DAT this summer before I go back to school at the University of Iowa in the Fall. I plan to dedicate prep time for my early mornings. Therefore, I would be available to drop in for walking or anything else in mid day and evenings I would prefer to be a drop in sitter. I can ensure that I am very comfortable with walking dogs. I have provided care to private residents for dog care and babysitting, and therefore I have a great understanding every family has different needs and I’m more than willing to accommodate with any needs you have:)

I also have 3 cats that are all extremely friendly and love new things. I currently work at an animal shelter working with dogs, cats, small mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians. I have experience with friendly animals, reactive animals, and shy animals. I'm very skilled at giving medications as I have to do it daily for my job. My schedule is very flexible and I'm also good in medical cases with animals. I don't have a degree in veterinary sciences, but work with strange cases daily and have a close connection with vet techs. I'm excited to open my heart to new animals! I currently work part time in the mornings and can stop in before my shift to do a check in, potty breaks, and feeding. Once I'm off in the afternoon, I can do more check-ins and walks. In the afternoons, I can stick around longer to spend more time with them. I have experience with positive reinforcement and am also okay with using dog crates if the need is there. I'm experienced with different types of harnesses and collars as well and have worked with dogs with many different allergies.
About: Hi! I'm Jamie! I work full-time as a hairstylist, but I've always loved animals and wanted a fun way to spend more time outside while helping busy pet parents. I have experience caring for my family's dogs and have loved getting to know each of their different personalities. My parents have a small/medium-sized dog who I've watched while they've been out of town, including caring for him for a full week on my own. I also regularly spend time with my sister's two larger dogs on weekends, letting them out, playing with them, giving them lots of attention, and of course getting in plenty of cuddles! I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I'll always send photo updates and let you know how your pup did after every visit! I'd love the chance to meet you and your furry best friend! I work fulltime as a hairstylist, so I plan my pet care around my work schedule and only accept bookings that I can give my full attention to. I'm available for walks and drop-in visits during my available days and times, including evenings and weekends. I'm dependable and will always make sure I have enough time in my schedule to give your pup the care and attention they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and individual needs are always my top priority. Before each booking, I'll ask questions about your pet's personality, routine, training, leash behavior, reactivity, triggers, and how they interact with other dogs, cats, and people. I want to understand what makes your pet comfortable and what situations I should be aware of before we head out. For walks, I'll follow your instructions regarding leashes, harnesses, and walking routines and will keep your pet supervised and secure at all times. I'll never let a dog off leash unless you've specifically asked me to and we're in an appropriate, safe area. For drop in visits, I'll follow your instructions for potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and cuddles. I'm also comfortable giving oral medications such as pills when clear instructions are provided. I'll make sure doors, gates, and other entry points are securely closed before leaving. I know every pet is different, so I don't assume that one approach works for every dog. I'll take the time to learn your pet's needs and follow the routines and boundaries you've established for them. I'll also send photos and an update after each visit so you know how your pup is doing!
“Alexis has been quick to respond, very friendly and wants the best for your pet. We’ve had a good experience with her and know that we can trust her with our puppy! She does great at communicating when we ask about the day or need to tell her something that wasn’t previously discussed.”

“Jason was an awesome all around dog sitter! He took my puppy for a weekend of boarding on very short notice. He was very responsive and able to quickly get up to speed on my dog’s tendencies and needs. He frequently sent updates throughout the weekend and I could tell was very active and engaged, taking several trips to the dog park and providing treats and toys. His dog Timber was the perfect buddy for my pup to play with all weekend long. I’ll reach out to Jason again for boarding and would recommend to anyone in the area.”
“My Bella actually enjoys going to see them and their dogs! They were able to fit me in at the very last minute for a family emergency and I appreciate that so much! Knowing Bella is happy and well cared for in a time like that means so much! These folks are wonderful.”
“Madison was so responsive and considerate! She sent several photos, took our dogs out regularly and kept us posted all along the way. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Jake is definitely the most responsible person I have ever met. He always answered my questions very quickly. My two cats are well looked after by him. He knows how to care for cats with different personalities. When we came to pick up the cat, Jake had already packed the cat's things in advance. My cats get along so well with him, they don't even want to go home! He is really nice. 100% recommend him.”
“Laylah was so great with our dog! We felt great leaving him with her, because it was clear he was loved and well taken care of. When we dropped him off for his second stay with Laylah, he was so excited to see her again.”
“Avery was great! I was in town for a wedding and Avery was extremely flexible with me as I needed to make last minute changes for my pick up and drop off time! She communicated quickly and sent us picture updates of my dog Rambo! I would definitely recommend her to friends and family!”
“Stacy did an AWESOME job with my 1 year old (LARGE) dog, Jemma. She worked with her on commands that we'd been working on and gave her lots of love! She sent pictures every day and was very easy to work with. She is great with animals and was able to watch Jemma for a week while I was travelling - what a life saver she is!!!!”
“Rizzo had a great visit with Adela. If your dog likes to play and enjoy an expansive fenced backyard, I encourage you to consider Adela. Communication was great and I appreciated her flexibility. Thank you!”
About: I have loved critters of all kinds since childhood. I attended obedience training for my family Rottweiler at age 6, and have cared for many big-breed dogs such as pitbulls, American bulldogs, mastiffs, Great Danes, labs, and more. I have been the trusted pet sitter for friends and family starting as early as middle school, and am also very comfortable around small breeds and senior babies. I have experience with Boston terriers, yorkies, daschunds, beagles, and more. I have and am comfortable with administering necessary meds or topicals for pets with extra health needs. I have also cared for cats, bunnies, fish, and turtles. I am very passionate about rescuing, and happy to discuss any extra care your pet may need due to a life transition like fostering or rescuing. I watched a PETA ad when I was 9 years old and have been vegetarian ever since… I just really love animals! :) I am working part-time from home at the moment, so I am very flexible currently with my schedule. I am typically available in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings! I have a fenced in backyard, and I do not have a dog of my own. I have a dining area with an extra couch that can be sectioned off if needed for a crate or food. I do have a senior cat who is indoor, who is very friendly with dogs. He grew up around my mom’s beagles, so he doesn’t mind company/energy! I can section off my basement stairs and kitchen for safety if needed. I cannot board any cat-aggressive dogs for my cat’s safety. I do not use any non pet-safe cleaners or pest control in my home.
“This was our first time using Rovr and Ali couldn’t have been better to work with. She was very flexible and took great care of our dog. She sent plenty of photos so we knew he was doing okay. I would highly recommend her and know that if we use Rovr again, we will gladly use Ali’s service again.”
“James was kind and attentive to Junes needs, he took her on nice long walks to tire her out and sent a few updates! James is very easy to communicate with and understands dogs wells! We greatly appreciated how he cared for our dog!”
About: I’ve always loved animals, and caring for them has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember! For the past 4 years, I’ve worked hands-on with all kinds of animals at an animal sanctuary, giving me experience with animals of different ages, personalities, and needs. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience raising and training puppies, as well as dog sitting for family, friends, and others. I’m comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once, including puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special needs. I also have experience giving medications and making sure pets receive the extra care and attention they need. One of my most memorable experiences was caring for a baby goat in my home for 6 weeks! I bottle-fed her, cared for her around the clock, and made sure she was happy, healthy, and comfortable. Experiences like this have taught me how much patience, responsibility, and attention to detail goes into caring for animals. What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra TLC. Whether your pet needs playtime, exercise, training, medication, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I work part-time, which allows me to have plenty of flexibility in my schedule for pet care! I’m available after 3 PM on weekdays for walks and drop-in visits, and I’m available for boarding on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care while you’re away! For boarding in my home, your pet will have access to a fully fenced-in backyard and a safe, comfortable environment. I also live in a walkable area, so I can provide nice, long walks when the weather permits. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s individual needs and routines, including crate use, feeding schedules, medications, or other care instructions. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own, and I’m respectful of your belongings and your space during drop-in visits.
“Sky loved having a backyard for the weekend with Emily! I loved being able to see her have fun for the weekend with videos and pictures. Super flexible with drop-off and pick-up times which was much appreciated!!”
“Tiffany and her family are great with our little Ronnie. He is well taken care of and he really has a lot of fun there. We check to see if Tiffany’s available before we consider anyone else to take care of our baby boy! Ronnie is always happy and relaxed after his stay with Tiffany!”
