Christina took great care of my Archie while I was out of town for the weekend. Her prices are a great deal and she took care of my puppy like he was her own. I hate leaving my baby, but Christina sent lots of pictures and always responded quickly when I reached out. Will definitely be booking again!

Trish is amazing! She was in constant communication while we were gone about what Mattie was up to with daily pictures and videos. I never had to worry that Mattie wasn’t being well taken care of and cared for. You can tell Trish loves every dog that comes into her home and she takes care of your dog as if it’s her own! Cannot recommend enough, we will definitely be booking Mattie again!

Absolutely fantastic people and dog sitters. This was our first experience leaving our babies in the hands of non family. It was worth every penny. The peace of mind and fantastic care they provided is unmatched. We will 1,000% be using DL and Libby for all vacations and long weekends that they are available. Thank you guys!

My dog Dash loves going over to Rachel’s house to play with her dogs and of course to go see Rachel! She always makes sure that Dash gets enough play time and goes on plenty of walks. Dash also loves car rides and gets to tag along whenever she has quick errands to run, and he often gets spoiled with pup cups through the Starbucks drive-thru. With my permission and built trust, I have allowed her to take him anywhere to run errands, visit friends, and family. Thank you so much Rachel for taking care of Dash!

About: Currently dog sit for a friend when their family goes out of town that has lead my son and I into enjoying taking care of dogs. We enjoy their company, snuggles and companionship. Currently working part time hours so I am home often along with being home every night and on weekends which allows your fur baby to not be alone for long periods of time. Have a front yard easily accessible to use with a lead and a big fenced in back yard for running around, playing fetch or relaxing in the sun.

Chrissy was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Marshmallow! Her home and yard were the perfect setup—safe, spacious, and welcoming. It was clear Marshmallow felt right at home and was very well cared for. We were about 30 minutes late picking her up due to delays getting back from Des Moines (traveling with a 3-month-old and a 6-year-old isn’t always predictable), and Chrissy was incredibly understanding and flexible, which we truly appreciated. The entire experience—from communication to pickup—was seamless. We couldn’t be happier with the care Marshmallow received and would absolutely book with Chrissy again. Highly recommend!

About: I have had a pets my entire life, mostly dogs and cats. I currently have 2 labs and 1 golden doodle who roam the yard with our farm animals; chickens and ducks. They are kennel trained and wouldn’t be around customer pets. I have 3 kids who love learning and helping out with chores. They are in extra curricular activities but I would ensure a schedule with you before the time of watching your fur baby. My husband is home most nights and weekends (besides hunting seasons) and he works construction during the day. I am home most nights and weekends besides when I have drill with the Iowa National guard, I work full time with the guard. Our dogs currently have an underground fence but because we have one mischievous lab (Mayble) who likes to convince the other two to go on adventures, we kennel her and our youngest (Bailey, golden doodle) during working hours. Our eldest (Max) is pretty lazy and wonders our yard freely during the day and night without his collar.

I left my pup with Alysha for a week and could not have better things to say about her and the care she gave my dog. I am usually a bit anxious leaving my dog with anyone but was so comfortable because I knew that she was being treated like a part of her family. I got several pictures a day and my pup seemed so happy. Would definitely board my dog with her again and recommend her to anyone!

About: I have always been surrounded by pets and animals - I am currently hosting two cats on my lap as I type! - and absolutely love them. My first job as a kid was dog sitting and dog walking for a giant, senior golden retriever and a tiny, spunky papillion. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and stages (including newborn kittens and very senior, diaper-wearing dogs), plus rats, rabbits, birds, fish, shrimp, snails, and bearded dragons. I am warm, loving, flexible, have a great sense of humor, and have my fair share of cleaning up pet "whoopsies" - all crucial traits for your next pet sitter! I work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule, so can easily fit your pets' schedule into my daily work - including coming over multiple times a day or even spending my working day (or the entire day!) at your home hanging out with your pets for added companionship and care. I am also available for periodic overnight pet sitting at your home! I am highly respectful of your home and the routines you have created there, which are critically important to keep your pets' stress levels low and happiness levels high (and yours, too!). I will follow any standards you have set, will keep the space organized and tidy, and will respect your privacy to the highest degree. Do you not let your dog on the couch? I won't either. Does your cat demand the blue bowl for his food? I'll use it and shun any others. Do you need your door unlocked at a certain time for a delivery? I'll make sure it's done. I am there to meet your pets' needs and your own needs, so let me know how I can help!

About: From growing up on a farm, to all family pets- I’ve worked with them all & welcome all fur babies! I’m flexible with sitting/walking opportunities, just reach out! As recent college graduate, I’m looking to fill in some time when given! I’m flexible for timeframes, with both short and long term care experience. I’ve worked more with dog and cat sitting over longer-weekend terms, family friend wise, but my older sister and mom have many cats to love and care for. Along with basic pet care, I’ve had farm pets of all forms therefore super comfortable with various forms of pets!

About: I live on a farm back home & have over a decade of animal care of all kinds! I have many farm cats and two dogs at home, as well as two cats that live with me! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes & would love to spend time with your best friend! I would especially love to hang out with dogs as I don’t want to get my own until I can give them a fenced in yard:) My boyfriend Gabe also helps out with the pet care! I am pretty free all summer & I can give as much or as little attention as your pet requires! I’m available to do random walks throughout the day or stay full time at your residence to give 24/7 care to your pet. I would like to follow your routine as much as possible, so honestly whatever you do with your pet I will copy! It’s important to keep their routines from changing frequently!

About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was just a little kid. I’ve always held a special place in my heart for dogs, along with small critters. Just recently I moved from Wisconsin, working at a humane society there where everyday I did all the basic care routines/evaluations for approximately 40 dogs. It was a blast, but I’d also love to slow down, and give 1 on 1 attention to the needs of each. I am currently a pretty free person, beginning my career of dog training, Bait’s Purpose: K-9. I plan my future around my dogs, and training. I care for pets however is requested by the owner(s), this just varies on what each dog is comfortable with. Dogs are in great care, however.

Dogs are near and dear to my heart and are treated just like a child on our home! I am a stay at home mom to our 2 year old. We are generally not gone for more than a couple of hours, if at all. We live in a nice quiet town and go for walks often. We have a very shaded front yard that we are in a lot. We take walks often and live in a nice town. Our yard is not fenced in.

This was my first time leaving my doggo with anyone from River and Ali was amazing! She was able to care for Benito, my Golden Retriever for a long day while I went to visit family just outside of town. She sent me updates regularly and Benito had a great time. She was super mindful of the cold weather and made sure Benito was safe from too extreme temperatures and still made sure to get some exercise and play time in. I appreciate Ali and know to reach out to her again when I need someone trustworthy to watch him for me whenever needed.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life and have had many neighbors back home request my dog sitting services. I am home all day, as I work remotely, and have a dog of Chocolate lab that loves to play but never gets to spend time with other dogs since we are new to the area. I definitely am open to negotiating prices so just reach out and we can have a conversation! I work remotely and will be available to care for dogs throughout the day and ensure they are well cared for. I work from 8-4 however have a lot of down time to care for dogs. I have a patio for dogs to be outside if they want to as well as a separate office space that my dog sleeps in at night. I also have a crate available if need be.

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember. In addition to my own fur family, I've watched several other's fur babies for the past 10 years. I work from home, so I'm home the majority of the time. That means your animals always get the attention they need, plus always another animal for companionship. I don't have a fenced yard, but I ALWAYS tether or take them out on a leash when at my home. I do like to give treats like kongs for added stimulation as well. I do have crates or have room for crates for sleeping or if they need alone time.

About: We love dogs and your little one will receive lots of love and one on one attention as we welcome him or her into our home. Our little Ronnie loves to play with dogs his own size or smaller. We don't have a fenced in yard, which means we will always be playing with and alongside your dog keeping him or her safe and happy and comfortable. We love to walk your dog also so he or she will get plenty of potty breaks and time to smell and get to know our neighborhood! We only care for one dog at a time, besides our own little guy Ronnie... so the two will become best friends! Faye is a full-time stay at home dog mom and my husband Rob helps take over dog care responsibilities after and before he goes to work. We make it a team effort so your dog will always have his or her needs met and get maximum love and attention. Safety comes first with your pet. We have a home that is safe and perfect for your little dog. We will welcome them into our family and treat them gently and with compassion... realizing that it's tough being away from your owners for a few days. We will love your puppy as much as we love our own Ronnie!

About: I live on a farm back home & have over a decade of animal care of all kinds! I have many farm cats and two dogs at home, as well as two cats that live with me! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes & would love to spend time with your best friend! I would especially love to hang out with dogs as I don’t want to get my own until I can give them a fenced in yard:) My boyfriend Gabe also helps out with the pet care! I am pretty free all summer & I can give as much or as little attention as your pet requires! I’m available to do random walks throughout the day or stay full time at your residence to give 24/7 care to your pet. I would like to follow your routine as much as possible, so honestly whatever you do with your pet I will copy! It’s important to keep their routines from changing frequently!

About: I have always been surrounded by pets and animals - I am currently hosting two cats on my lap as I type! - and absolutely love them. My first job as a kid was dog sitting and dog walking for a giant, senior golden retriever and a tiny, spunky papillion. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and stages (including newborn kittens and very senior, diaper-wearing dogs), plus rats, rabbits, birds, fish, shrimp, snails, and bearded dragons. I am warm, loving, flexible, have a great sense of humor, and have my fair share of cleaning up pet "whoopsies" - all crucial traits for your next pet sitter! I work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule, so can easily fit your pets' schedule into my daily work - including coming over multiple times a day or even spending my working day (or the entire day!) at your home hanging out with your pets for added companionship and care. I am also available for periodic overnight pet sitting at your home! I am highly respectful of your home and the routines you have created there, which are critically important to keep your pets' stress levels low and happiness levels high (and yours, too!). I will follow any standards you have set, will keep the space organized and tidy, and will respect your privacy to the highest degree. Do you not let your dog on the couch? I won't either. Does your cat demand the blue bowl for his food? I'll use it and shun any others. Do you need your door unlocked at a certain time for a delivery? I'll make sure it's done. I am there to meet your pets' needs and your own needs, so let me know how I can help!

Ashley was a rock star w/ our 103 lb. Ozzy. Despite multiple obedience classes, something in his past life made him leash reactive. Ashley worked w/ him and mostly got him to sit and respond when she said "Quiet" in a calming voice. She kept us updated while on our monthlong trip to Africa. It was clear when we returned to U.S. they had made a real connection. We are grateful for all her efforts and would definitely use her Rover services in the future.

About: I've been taking care of my mom's dog when she is out of town for over 10 years. My brother recently got a puppy and I have added her to my list! Dogs are near and dear to my heart and are treated just like a child on our home! I am a stay at home mom to our 2 year old. We are generally not gone for more than a couple of hours, if at all. We live in a nice quiet town and go for walks often. We have a very shaded front yard that we are in a lot. We take walks often and live in a nice town. Our yard is not fenced in.

About: I have had a pets my entire life, mostly dogs and cats. I currently have 2 labs and 1 golden doodle who roam the yard with our farm animals; chickens and ducks. They are kennel trained and wouldn’t be around customer pets. I have 3 kids who love learning and helping out with chores. They are in extra curricular activities but I would ensure a schedule with you before the time of watching your fur baby. My husband is home most nights and weekends (besides hunting seasons) and he works construction during the day. I am home most nights and weekends besides when I have drill with the Iowa National guard, I work full time with the guard. Our dogs currently have an underground fence but because we have one mischievous lab (Mayble) who likes to convince the other two to go on adventures, we kennel her and our youngest (Bailey, golden doodle) during working hours. Our eldest (Max) is pretty lazy and wonders our yard freely during the day and night without his collar.

About: I have experience pet sitting as well as currently working at a Doggy Daycare/Boardinh facility! I grew up on a farm, so I am used to working with animals, and I also have pets of my own! I have taken care of a large variety of pets, from puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats. I am also used to giving medication to pets that require it! I currently am working part time at a pet care facility, so I would love to incorporate more pet care into my life! I am happy to help wherever I can, however early or late needed! I have a great ability to read a pets body language and help them get used to me when visiting them in home. I also understand boundaries and love walking pets, while also keeping them under control and safe!

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was born. My parents share the same love for animals as I do, and I think I love them more honestly! I’ve dealt with losing a pet, and adding new additions to the family. In my eyes no breed of dog or cat is superior and I would love to meet all the pets I can!! I am in school full time during the weekdays, but Fridays when I’m off of clinicals, I am more than happy to start a house sit or drop in!! On the weekends all of my services are available! I take my dogs for walks frequently. They are a bit stubborn sometimes (especially my olde english) but after we get walking they love being outside! The summer heat gets to them both though, so I would love to get outside!

Booked for dog walking and I am confident my dog also gives her 5 stars. My dog loved Ali immediately, first sight. Ali is attentive to her and clearly skilled with her. My dog is intelligent and PARTICULAR about leaving me. Notoriously bad at taking commands from strangers. When Ali arrived for just the second walk, my dog was loving her and ready to head out at the first sight of her. And my dog gets long walks every day the weather allows, so walking alone is not the draw here. Ali communicates beautifully with me as an owner, does great follow-up when she returns from the walk, and clearly loves what she does. No complaints in my house. I don't generally leave my dog care to anyone else, but Ali

About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was just a little kid. I’ve always held a special place in my heart for dogs, along with small critters. Just recently I moved from Wisconsin, working at a humane society there where everyday I did all the basic care routines/evaluations for approximately 40 dogs. It was a blast, but I’d also love to slow down, and give 1 on 1 attention to the needs of each. I am currently a pretty free person, beginning my career of dog training, Bait’s Purpose: K-9. I plan my future around my dogs, and training. I care for pets however is requested by the owner(s), this just varies on what each dog is comfortable with. Dogs are in great care, however.

I never had to worry that Mattie wasn’t being well taken care of and cared for. You can tell Trish loves every dog that comes into her home and she takes care of your dog as if it’s her own! Cannot recommend enough, we will definitely be booking Mattie again!

Chrissy was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Marshmallow! Her home and yard were the perfect setup—safe, spacious, and welcoming. It was clear Marshmallow felt right at home and was very well cared for. We were about 30 minutes late picking her up due to delays getting back from Des Moines (traveling with a 3-month-old and a 6-year-old isn’t always predictable), and Chrissy was incredibly understanding and flexible, which we truly appreciated. The entire experience—from communication to pickup—was seamless. We couldn’t be happier with the care Marshmallow received and would absolutely book with Chrissy again. Highly recommend!
