“Alyeska had a great time at Samantha's home! We received frequent updates on how she was adjusting and doing throughout her stay. Drop off and pick up went very smoothly. Alyeska will definitely be back for future boarding needs.”
“Our dogs were so happy with Cary and Lara. They seemed sad to leave their new friends when we got home. We got fun pictures to show us their adventures while we were away, and I could tell they just settled right in. It was a fantastic experience!”
“Candace was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our two dogs, Nico and Coco, as if they were her own. It was our first time using Rover, and Candace made it an exceptional experience. From the moment we met her and her family, we knew our pups were in good hands. They came back happy, healthy, and we could tell they had a blast! We are so grateful for the care and love Candace provided, and we will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Penny, my 15 month old Golden, loved staying at Shawna's for a long weekend away. It looks like Penny had a great time and she loved running around with her dog Jersey! Lots of space to run and play. And Penny has a lot of energy to burn! Will definitely use Shawna again if needed.”
“We recently boarded our dog with Melanie and it was a great experience. Melanie and her family were so nice to work with and did a great with Maya. We liked getting updates and pictures while she stayed there. Highly recommended.”
“It was Cleo’s second time staying with Jessica, and again, we really could not ask for better - she is just the best, all the walks, playtime, pictures and top notch care you could ask for. Cleo has a ball when she’s with Jessica. We will be back in June!”
“Amanda spoiled our dog all weekend! Played catch and cuddled and let him take a nap in her lap (he's almost 100 lbs so that was above and beyond the call of duty)! Another plus is there were 4-5 large dogs for Osborne to play with in Amanda's fenced in backyard so he came home happily exhausted. Amanda was extremely flexible in drop off/pick up times which was greatly appreciated as we were heading out of town for the weekend. She also carefully monitored his food so he only ate his food and didn't sneak other dog food and get an upset stomach. Highly recommend Amanda!”
“I’m so happy I picked Tam and Alexander to watch our dog while we were out of town! The communication was great and I received so many pictures and updates. I would 100% recommend them and we will for sure use them again when we travel ☺️”
About: I grew up with dogs and now have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own. Our cats are both American Shorthair and our dog is a golden retriever! I’m currently a stay at home mom and we love watching some furry friends during our days! We can let them out multiple times, go on walks, and play. Our big fenced in backyard makes for a fun time! I have two very friendly cats who warm up quickly to other animals or hide until they feel comfortable! We also have a golden retriever who loves other animals and loves to play! I live in house with a fenced in backyard!
“Once again Debora provided wonderful care for Cindy (my cat). Debora understands the mind of a cat and lets Cindy be at home in her home. Cindy is so comfortable with Debora that when it came time to leave Cindy did not protest being in the carrier as long as Debora sat next to her. Very nice!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Ivana did a fabulous job, truly going above and beyond our expectations! We felt that she treated our dog like family, exactly as we would treat her. We got daily updates/videos and in every one, our dog looked like she was having the most amazing time! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
About: I have had multiple pets from mice to dogs so I'm well rounded in diverse care. I love to play with animals especially dogs theyre just amazing. Weekends, work days, holidays (if needed). I can house for multiple days. I only leave to get groceries or to take my dog to the park. Safe and loving. Will have a great play partner Sammy loves to play he would all day if he could, we go on walks, park trips, sometimes just a drive.
“Cynthia took great care of Brooks for a weekend stay. Her home and big backyard were perfect for him, and she kept us updated with photos and quick responses, which made us feel really comfortable. He clearly felt right at home — he almost didn’t want to leave! Friendly, flexible, and easy to work with. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“This was our first Rover experience, and Ben made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire stay. He sent pictures and videos daily, took Murphy on walks and to the dog park, and cared for Murphy’s hotspot by putting cream on each day. It looked like Murphy had the best time!”
“Tamara and her family were great with Otis - he seemed to really enjoy his time there. Tamara was also flexible, agreeing to watch Otis an extra day. We will not hesitate to book Tamara again.”
“Dan and Angela did a fantastic job watching our dog while we were on vacation. They sent updates and pics which made us feel super comfortable. Great people and definitely booking with them again!!!”
“Jill is a lifesaver! I found myself in a pinch, and she agreed to take Jeeps for the weekend with less than 12 hours notice. I immediately felt at ease upon meeting her and knew my sweet girl was in good hands. I received several updates throughout the weekend. Jeeps had a great time with Jill and family and the other furry weekend visitors. I would use Jill again in a heartbeat the next time I’m in the area.”
“Sherilynn is literally the best!!! She is so caring and has fun things for the dogs to do. She sends pictures and videos, she picked my dog up for the weekend twice, took her through Starbucks to get a pup cup and even let us extend our stay short-notice. Cannot recommend enough!!!”

“Mary was wonderful, our dogs and cat took to her right away. She communicated well and was quick to reply to any questions. Would definitely recommend and rebook with her. 5 stars!!”
“Christina is truly caring and patient with our cat Spaghettio. She was so kind and made even such a shy cat warm up to her right away. She replies right away and always has your pets interest in mind. I highly recommend Christina!”
“Olivia did great making sure my cat had food and water while I was on vacation out of the country! Scheduled four drop in visits and added extra instructions a couple days and she followed everything perfectly! Even went above and beyond and cleaned up some messes Klaus left when he feels like being a litter box diva. Thanks for everything!”
“Rachel is a treasure. Rachel has watched my two cats twice. This second time was while I was camping for the weekend with very limited cell service. It was really reassuring to know my fur babies were in such capable hands while I was away!”
About: I have spent much of my life taking care of different animals. I grew up on a farm handling chores for animals of all kinds from horses to dogs and cats. I currently have a 3 year old Maine Coon cat named Boston! I currently work mornings, typically 7-3 M-F. My hours vary depending on the week and what I am busy with at work.

About: I've taken care of cats since I was a young child, however I have been doing so professionally for 10 years. What sets me apart from other cat sitters is that I am also a full time vet tech and have been in the veterinary field for over 10 years. So I am uniquely qualified to administer all kinds of medications, including oral, transdermal, injectable and subcutaneous fluids.
About: I've taking care of my Aunts dogs since I was five years old and I really enjoy taking care of some of the amazing furriest friends out there I'm currently working full-time from Sunday to Thursday 6-2 so my only availability, is the weekends, or anytime afterwork are the best times for me. I have a year of experience working as an unarmed security guard, which is a bonus when it comes to protecting a house and pets too.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and have always enjoyed caring for them. My cats have some medical needs so I’m open to discussing anything like that. I have also been around dogs my whole life, including watching neighbors and family member’s pups. I typically work irregular hours but will update my availability when I know!! I have weekends off and after 4:30 for sure every week day I have a fenced in yard with lots of room to roam and shade to cool off. If I’m coming to your home depending on it you have a cat or dog, I love to play and give animals lots of pets. But I will also follow the given instructions with food, water, and litter box if necessary.
“Maya did an amazing job with our anxious pup. We unexpectedly had new neighbors move in above us the day before our trip. Maya did a great job at communicating how peanut was doing with the adjustment during the visits and provided lots of great photos as well.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I got my first cat when I was 16 and now have two beautiful cats. Taking care of my cats has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and genuine love. I have also learned a lot about animal behavior from observing my cats and spending the past six years with them. Even though I have cats at home, I’ve also always loved dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and make them feel comfortable and loved.
About: Hi!!! My name is Kadyn and I’ve always had a genuine love for animals!! I feel the happiest when I’m caring for them:) I worked for two years at a local doggy daycare in waukee Iowa, where I gained lots of hands on experience supervising, playing with, taking care of, and ensuring safety of dogs of all sizes, ages and personalities. I have also been a dog sitter and walker for the past five years, building trusted relationships with both pets and their owners while providing dependable care, including administering medications and following detailed instructions to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved!!! I am a sophmore in college at the University of Iowa! So my schedule is pretty flexible during the week days between classes and I’m open most weekends! I care for them as if they were my own and I do my very best to make them feel comfortable and loved whether they are in my home or the clients!
“Jess was such a great choice to watch my Sammy boy. We were gone from 5/22-6/1 and had no idea it was getting VERY warm here in Iowa. We did not yet have our window air conditioners in. At one point, it got to 85 in our house. I was able to have a neighbor install the window ac’s. Jess was concerned for Sam and offered to stop by to check on him (on a day that wasn’t originally on the calendar). I truly appreciate her doing that! We were in Florida and that helped eased my mind!! We’re already set up to have her take care of him later this summer. Thanks again Jess!”
About: I’ve grown up around cats ever since I was younger. I have had trophy winning show cats and I also work half time at a cat cafe so I work with cats on a regular basis. I’d love to care for your feline friend and make sure they’re in good hands.

“Ivana did an amazing job! She treated our puppies like they were family, and they looked forward to going to her place every day. We will definitely have our pups stay with Ivana again.”
“Reese had such a great experience with her. I could tell right away how much Reese liked her because she was excited to see her each morning and went straight in for love and affection. She took great care of Reese, kept me updated with photos, and even did a little training with her during the day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Reese was happy, safe, and well cared for. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Jill & her family are awesome!! They treated Benji as if he was their own! We are nervous dog parents sending our pooch to just anyone, Jill eased our minds with a lovely meet & greet, updates throughout the day and filled us in on how Benji was at pick up time :) Would definitely recommend Jill!”
“Melanie and family were so friendly that my dogs—a 4- and a 12- year-old Havanese—relaxed immediately. Melanie met us in the yard and the dogs trotted away with her without looking back. The dogs were with her for 6 hours and she sent multiple photos and status updates. We would definitely ask Melanie to watch our dogs again!”
“Deborah is awesome! She loves my Harley as much as I do, and takes super great care of him. I have used her for about a year and 1/2, maybe longer. She almost always can take him at the last minute, which is perfect for me because I'm not very organized, lol. Thank you Deborah!🤩🥰”
About: I have been a pet parent for over 15 years. I currently have a 4 year old German shorthair pointer named Draco and a 11 year old cat named Rubeus. Draco is a big goofy lover. Very good with other dogs. We recently lost our older dog and Draco is missing having a buddy to run around with. I am a stay at home mom so I am home most of the day. We are very active with playing in the yard and going for walks. I have a huge fenced in yard and live walking distance to a couple parks. Dogs are free to roam my home and be on furniture. Can kennel overnight if preferred.
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful. It was easy to set up - our first time using rover. Communication was prompt - she was so pleasant and we felt very comfortable with our dog staying at her house. Can't say enough - she was great, and we would love to have more bookings with her.”
“Tamara is just fantastic. She was great and attentive to my dog and her dogs are so sweet and got along perfectly with him! She has a giant yard for them to play and he came home every time just so happy and relaxed! He slept like a baby both times! He clearly loved her, her kids, and her dogs! Such a wonderful family and home! She did such a great job at such a great price! I can’t recommend her enough! I will try and book her first when looking for anything regarding care for my dog! Thanks Tamara!”
“Heather was amazing! She took on our 10-week-old puppy, Jack, for the day/evening. It was his first time with a sitter, and she was wonderful and put us at ease about leaving our pup for the first time. Would highly recommend her to anyone. We hope she will have us back sometime.”
“I loved all the pictures of Rex throughout the day. They really made me feel that Rex was being well cared for. I loved seeing that he was able to relax in his surroundings and hang out with friends.”
About: I have had pets my entire adult life, and I know how important it is to you to find the right person to take care of them while you’re away.

I work from home, and my husband is a full time dad, so we’d be happy to spend time with your pets, go for walks as a family, and see to their every need! We have pet gates throughout the home, extra kennels if needed, and a fenced in yard. We are also comfortable giving medication orally or via injection if needed.
“We were so lucky to find michelle! We literally just moved into the neighborhood and knew no one. She was close by and available to watch my furball on late notice. We met in her and Luca adorable apartment and immediately I felt this was a safe comfortable place for Luchia to stay. Michelle is so easy going and super friendly. Her dog Luca is absolutely adorable. Throughout Luchias stay with Michelle I received many pics and updates. My dog takes a while to warm up to new people and other dogs so seeing her snuggled up at michelle’s in the picture really set me at ease. I totally recommend Michelle and will absolutely be using her again”
About: Animal lover and owner for 15+ years, with experience caring for dogs, cats, snakes, and a crested gecko. I genuinely love caring for pets, whether they’re mine or yours! I’m always happy to help keep them safe, loved, and well cared for As a stay-at-home mom, my schedule is naturally flexible, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I love being able to use that flexibility to help care for other families’ pets whenever they need it. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and your animals with the same respect and attention I give my own. I follow all routines closely, provide plenty of love and supervision, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Corkie loved her doggy day care time playing with Bailey and Iggy in their big backyard! This was her first time away from home and it went so well! Will definitely have Sherilynn watch her again!”

“Traci was absolutely amazing to my sweet Penny. She even bought her a little skateboard to teach my bulldog how to skate since they are known to be great at it. Penny adored her and will use Traci for every Rover walk when needed. She’s prompt and committed to walking on time and very consistent. We love Traci!!”
“Olivia was so great with Maverick! I booked for 4 walks and she was prompt and every walk was a good 30min which is perfect for my dog. She sent updates and communicated well. I’ll definitely be rebooking in the future”
About: I've pet/house sat for multiple people in the past. Animals include dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I like to have a meet and greet before ever staying with your pets alone. If you have any special diets or quirks make sure we discuss them in advance! I don't mind staying for a few hours to watch your animals or just drop in, whatever is needed! I have a nighttime job so, your animals will need to be able to be alone at night a few days of the week! I will discuss meal plan, how often you walk them/let them outside, and if they have meds with you prior to caring for your animals.
“Racheal is such a wonderful human! We love that she is part of our lives, and she is adored by my greyhound, Bobbie Sue. We view her as family, and would recommend her to everyone for assistance with their pet. :)”

Taking care of pets is my passion! Each pet deserves to be treated with 110% love, kindness, and respect, as do clients and their homes. It is important to me that pets know how loved and cared for they are, even by their sitter/walker! What this looks like to me is extra snuggles and pets, praises, treats (only if allowed by owners and according to owners rules), walks, playtime, and so much more!
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and spent most of high school and college as the go-to pet sitter for my friends, family, and neighbors. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets and animals so nothing phases me! Now that I have a bit more flexibility in my schedule, I’m excited to get back to it. As a dog and cat mom myself, I know how stressful it is to leave your babies behind. Whether it's a quick walk, popping in for a welfare check, or house-sitting while you're on vacation, I promise to treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m also more than happy to accommodate quirky routines. For example, one of my own cats insists on playing a round of fetch every single night before letting us go to bed. Whatever your pets specific quirks are, I've got them covered! I'm currently working part-time so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care. I'm available most of the day and all week (including weekends) Even if your house has a fenced in yard I am always present and alert when if comes to letting pets out and playing with them.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I got my first cat when I was 16 and now have two beautiful cats. Taking care of my cats has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and genuine love. I have also learned a lot about animal behavior from observing my cats and spending the past six years with them. Even though I have cats at home, I’ve also always loved dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and make them feel comfortable and loved. I am a nursing student at DMACC and have Friday, Saturday, and Sunday available to care for pets! I am available to work anytime between 10AM and 11PM. I make sure I always know where my pets are throughout the day. If they aren’t in their usual spots, I check on them to make sure they’re safe and comfortable. Before leaving the house, I make sure they have fresh water, a clean environment, and that their scheduled meals are served. I also pay attention to their behavior because it tells me a lot about how they are doing.
About: Animals have always had my heart whether they have fur, feathers, or floppy ears, I love them like they’re my own! 🐾 From playful puppies to wise old whiskers, I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid, and I’ve had the joy of helping many senior pets live comfortably and happily in their golden years. I truly believe pets are family, and I understand how important it is for them to stay in their own cozy space, surrounded by familiar smells, toys, and routines. That’s why I provide the kind of loving care and attention you’d give them yourself so you can relax knowing your furry (or not-so-furry!) family members are safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away. With over 12 years of experience in pet and house sitting (both through Rover and independently), I’ve spent lots of time with older pups and pets who need daily medication and a little extra TLC. I know how reassuring it is to have someone trustworthy in your home and by your pet’s side. 🐶💬 Just a heads-up: while I’m great at snuggles, meds, and belly rubs, I’m not a certified dog trainer so I will not be offering training services. If you have a training routine you’d like to continue while gone please let me know so I can accommodate. For everyone’s comfort and peace of mind, please let me know if there are any security cameras inside the home before a sit begins. I completely understand the need for home security, but just as a heads-up it’s illegal in most states to place cameras in private areas like bathrooms or bedrooms, even if it’s your own home. I respect your space and privacy and kindly ask for the same in return. Thank you so much for understanding! 🐾🏡 (I’m very committed to animal welfare and have been an animal rights activist for years. Copy of background check available upon request for in home stays.) Pet care is a big part of my routine, and I always aim for clear, honest communication up front to make sure I’m the right fit before booking this helps avoid any surprises or conflicts later on. I also offer full-time care and am happy to take time off work to focus completely on your pet, especially if they’re extra cuddly or need that close, consistent companionship (Velcro pups are my specialty 🐶💕). I always aim to create a safe, calm space where your dog can feel at ease. As a new face in their home, I take things slow, stay relaxed, and tune into their energy letting them set the pace. I understand how confusing or stressful it can be when their favorite human isn’t around, so my goal is to build trust and help them feel secure, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾💛

Your pet's comfort is my number one concern so I have no problem coming to you or taking your pet to their favorite park. I'm comfortable walking larger dogs that pull the leash and explore or older dogs with limited mobility.

About: I love any dog that crosses my path I have experience with lots of small dogs but also some very large dogs and am able to handle them both. I have experience with older dogs who may need more help with certain things but also the most energetic younger dogs who need to be played with and walked many times a day I am still a student athlete in college so I have classes and practices throughout the week but your pet will never be left alone for longer than about 2 hours at a time which will be a very rare occurrence, my classes end in April so ill have a lot more free time soon as well Making sure they are fed in a timely manner, I love playing with dogs so as long as they have energy ill be there to play with them, making sure they get walks and potty breaks often, and taking care of any special needs they might have that ive been made aware of.

I’m a big animal person hoping to ensure that your furry companions are in the hands of someone efficient and careing.

Im only unavailable once a week (typically Thursday and Fridays, but it differs). I am always very flexible. I have a fenced in yard and a dog at home that is fairly well behaved around other dogs. I do not have a crate at my home and would prefer to care for your pet in your home.

“Penny, my 15 month old Golden, loved staying at Shawna's for a long weekend away. It looks like Penny had a great time and she loved running around with her dog Jersey! Lots of space to run and play. And Penny has a lot of energy to burn! Will definitely use Shawna again if needed.”

“Amanda spoiled our dog all weekend! Played catch and cuddled and let him take a nap in her lap (he's almost 100 lbs so that was above and beyond the call of duty)! Another plus is there were 4-5 large dogs for Osborne to play with in Amanda's fenced in backyard so he came home happily exhausted. Amanda was extremely flexible in drop off/pick up times which was greatly appreciated as we were heading out of town for the weekend. She also carefully monitored his food so he only ate his food and didn't sneak other dog food and get an upset stomach. Highly recommend Amanda!”

Will have a great play partner Sammy loves to play he would all day if he could, we go on walks, park trips, sometimes just a drive.
“Cynthia took great care of Brooks for a weekend stay. Her home and big backyard were perfect for him, and she kept us updated with photos and quick responses, which made us feel really comfortable. He clearly felt right at home — he almost didn’t want to leave! Friendly, flexible, and easy to work with. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“This was our first Rover experience, and Ben made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire stay. He sent pictures and videos daily, took Murphy on walks and to the dog park, and cared for Murphy’s hotspot by putting cream on each day. It looked like Murphy had the best time!”
“Tamara and her family were great with Otis - he seemed to really enjoy his time there. Tamara was also flexible, agreeing to watch Otis an extra day. We will not hesitate to book Tamara again.”
“Dan and Angela did a fantastic job watching our dog while we were on vacation. They sent updates and pics which made us feel super comfortable. Great people and definitely booking with them again!!!”
“Jill is a lifesaver! I found myself in a pinch, and she agreed to take Jeeps for the weekend with less than 12 hours notice. I immediately felt at ease upon meeting her and knew my sweet girl was in good hands. I received several updates throughout the weekend. Jeeps had a great time with Jill and family and the other furry weekend visitors. I would use Jill again in a heartbeat the next time I’m in the area.”
“Sherilynn is literally the best!!! She is so caring and has fun things for the dogs to do. She sends pictures and videos, she picked my dog up for the weekend twice, took her through Starbucks to get a pup cup and even let us extend our stay short-notice. Cannot recommend enough!!!”
“Amy and Casey were great with our pup. Rudy can be pretty anxious, especially around new people, and Amy and Casey were very patient and understanding with him. He warmed up to them and had a great weekend, and Casey and Amy provided updates and pictures. Would definitely recommend them to anyone!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!”
“Ashly once again took care of our baby and did a great job! She was flexible with drop off/pick up and communication options with my husband since I was going to be out of town when he dropped Hank off and picked him up! Grateful that she cares for our fur baby as her own!”
“Stefanie and her fur babies took great care of Wilbur while making him feel comfy and loved. He was calm and happy after the experience, as was I. I trust that Wilbur is in good hands with her.”
“Laura provided great care for my pup for a couple of days while we were traveling--doing boring people stuff--in her area; we received a happy (and tired) pooch at the conclusion of her stay. Would definitely book again!”
