“Jason was a tremendous help while I was on vacation and learned that my dad was about to pass away. Initially, he was to keep my dog for a week, but because I had to fly home because of my dad’s eventual passing and to prepare the funeral arrangements, Jason kindly extended my booking twice during the whole ordeal, and at a discounted rate. He was very empathetic, and told me not to worry about my dog, which alleviated so much of a very stressful situation. This was my second time using Jason, and I will continue to do so in the future.”
“Gracy loves it here. She gets excited coming down the lane and runs straight for the house like it was her own. We used the pick up option this time and watched on our house cams as our dog ran straight to Sherrys vehicle and jumped right in. It's a relief to know she has no hesitation about spending time here!”
“Lori was incredible from beginning to the end. She was flexible about drop off and about pick up. Unfortunately, I had gotten sick and she was accommodating about picking up Cookie a day later. She gave us regular updates and photos of Cookie during the day. Overall, I appreciate how well she took her care of Cookie during his stay and her flexibility.”
“Jake is so easy to work with. My dog had a great time while we were away. He’s always on the anxious side and Jake and his dog, Walter made him feel comfy. I didn’t worry at all while we were out of town. Thanks again!”
“Laylah watched my dog Oreo for a week while I was away on a trip. She sent pictures and videos of him, and I could tell that he was having the best time! We will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“Lakin was amazing at letting us know how our little fur baby was coping away from home. She sent us picture and videos and always responded pretty quickly to any message we sent. Our booking was last minute and we are very grateful that Lakin was able to accommodate for us. Would book 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!”
“Ali was awesome! This was my first time leaving my pup with a dog sitter on rover, and Ali helped ease my worries. She kept me updated on my pup and sent lots of photos. She was also very sweet and understanding about my dog’s quirks (aka her barking). Would definitely recommend to others who need their dog watched for a few days! I look forward to taking my pup back to Ali’s whenever I have to go out of town!”
“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!”
“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!!!!”
“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!”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs since I was five.

I will treat your pet as if they were my own loving on them and treating them. I am happy to take them on daily walks, to the park and to stay the night at your place.
“Ashley was awesome! She had quick replies, sent me pictures of fifi, and was just all around a great sitter! I can tell fifi was very happy and loved when she stayed! i will definitely rebook with 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!!”
“Trish is awesome!!! She provides regular updates and is such a big help and so friendly with our golden retriever. We were worried he was not going to want to come home since it looked like he was having such a good time! We will be sure to have her help any time we need a dog sitter going forward!”

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 definitely am open to negotiating prices so just reach out and we can have a conversation!

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.
“Emily's place was great for our dog. She loved playing with Emily's dog and had free run in a large fenced back yard. Emily had no problems with Belle and Belle seemed totally comfortable with them. We also got pics of Belle during her stay which is comforting and reassuring. If ever in Iowa City again, we'll look Emily's place up again.”
“Allison was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs, a playful and high energy 5 year old pug and a very high needs senior. She is so loving with them, and is very patient and focused on our senior dog’s needs. We were totally confident that they were cared for so well all day. We are so grateful to have found her! Ellie and Jake loved their time with her and can’t wait to stay with her again.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and it exceeded our expectations. Ali did a great job caring for our 4 1/2 year old black lab, George. Ali was easy to get in touch with and attended to George’s medical issues requiring meds and exercise restrictions. George was clearly well cared for and loved.? Highly recommended!”
“Savannah was great! She took great care of our Aussie during our move into our new apartment. She was very lenient with the pick up time and kept us updated with photos! I would recommend Savannah to anyone!! 🐾”
About: I did a lot of dog/cat sitting back when I was in college (8 years ago). I have some time off of work and would love nothing more than to fill my schedule with watching your pets. I have experience in caring for dogs, cats, chickens, and some reptiles. I am off of work for a couple of months, so my availability is wide open! 7 days a week, morning or night would work. I live on an acreage, so our 3 dogs are on a wireless gps collar system. If your dog/s were to come to my yard, they would need to be somewhat collar-trained. At your house, I can walk dogs, play with your dogs in your yard, and hang out with them inside the house. For cats, I can play with them inside, and give them lots of company.
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’m not only comfortable with dogs of all ages but also have experience handling puppies and providing senior dog care. 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 have a dog at home and an unfenced yard, but we're just one block away from a dog park, so your pet will have plenty of opportunities for outdoor play and exercise. If needed, we can crate our dog to ensure safety and comfort during your pet's visit. 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.

“Auden has given walks to our dog, Mochi, over the last six months. She was a lifesaver after I had a baby in January and it was harder for me to have the time to walk Mochi, especially in the cold weather. Mochi especially loved going on walks in Hickory Hill Park with her. Thank you, Auden!”
“I couldn't have been more satisfied with Nicole's time with our pooch. She took excellent care of him, paid attention to all of his needs, handled his overabundant excitement, and sent some great pictures too! If you're deciding between walkers, pick Nicole!”
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 been around dogs my whole life, I’ve done dogsitting gigs for 5 years on weekends and in the summers. Walking, feeding, watering, playing, and of course cleaning up after the dogs. I love taking walks, so going on walks with dogs makes it so much better. Four years ago, I helped my parents when they got a new puppy, and cared for it, learning how to take care of dogs on my own, another reason why I love dogs. I love the energy, and the happiness dogs bring off to humans. I’m a teacher in the summer with all the time off to take care of pets! During the school year I enjoy taking care of other pets as well! I treat pets at my home or a clients home as the nicest way I can. With knowing it is my clients dog, I will always do my absolute best to give it all its needs, and make the dog as comfortable and happy as possible. I want to give my care to them in the time I’m able to spend with them.
About: I have always had a pet to take care of my whole life. I have a nursing background, so am comfortable with giving any medications as needed. I can bathe, feed and walk your pet as desired. I currently work part time but would be available to watch your pet on the weekends or make stops in to let them out or walk them throughout the day on days that I do not work. I have 2 dogs of my own and they are both very social and well trained dogs. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs who are well trained and socialized. I have the best of both worlds with an older (14 year old) dog who prefers to relax next to his owners and another dog (8 years old) who has energy for days! You can bet that I will care for your pet as if it were my own.

I've also been pet sitting for friends and family since I was a teenager, so I'm very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and quirks! I’m also experienced with administering medications to both cats and dogs, including shots, and am comfortable with complex routines. I know that being away from their best friends can be stressful for pets, and I believe keeping their routine as consistent as possible helps them feel safe and comfortable. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, playtime, walks, medication, or giving them space when they need it, you can trust that I will take care of your pet as if they were my own! Not only is it my goal to make sure your pets feel cared for and loved while you're away, I also want you to have peace of mind knowing that your pets are safe and cared for! I'll keep you updated with as many photos, videos, and status updates as you like! Feel free to reach out with any questions, let’s chat! :) My work schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to do drop in-visits throughout the week. I’m available for morning and evening visits on weekdays, and I have open availability on weekends for visits. I’m also available for house sitting any day of the week, including weekends. When I'm caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both their pets and their home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I understand that trust is a big part of inviting someone into your home, so I'll keep your space clean and tidy, lock doors and windows, and make sure your pets are safe and comfortable at all times. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: Hi! I'm Jenna. The "Me every time I see a dog. Do you share this reaction?" meme with Andy from Parks & Recreation is literally me every time I see a dog. I LOVE dogs, cats, sloths, sea otters and pretty much all animals in general. I have a huge heart and SO much love to give! I am very energetic, bubbly, and outgoing...I would love to meet some doggies (and maybe some humans in the process too) and give them some lovins' and exercise :) I work part time and my schedule is pretty flexible. I would love to walk your pups or play with them outside of my job. I am available for house sitting dogs and cats. I’m generally available in mornings or afternoons around 4 pm. Since I do work a variety of jobs I just need a days notice but I can usually work around your schedule for the most part! I have experience pet sitting in the home and have done jobs where pet parents are out of town for the weekends or for work trips and I am happy to watch the house as well. I have a kitty cat so I wouldn’t be able to fully board but I’m able to take your doggo on walks, to the park, to a patio, etc etc. I can watch the dog at my house in the backyard but wouldn’t be able to take them inside the home.
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: I began providing pet care at 13 years old, starting with friends and family before expanding through social media to serve a wide range of clients. My experience includes dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, medication administration, enrichment, and personalized care. What began as a passion has grown into a trusted, professional pet care service. For more about my background, visit me at Jet Set Pet Care. Animal care is intentionally built into my daily and weekly routine to ensure consistency and reliability for every client. I structure my schedule around morning, midday, and evening care windows to accommodate feeding times, walks, litter maintenance, and enrichment visits. I limit bookings to maintain quality and punctuality, allowing me to provide attentive, unrushed care. Weekly planning includes route organization, client communication, and follow-ups to ensure each pet’s needs are met. Pet care is not a side task for me — it is a priority and a structured part of my routine. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and the specific service requested. In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal schedule to reduce stress — including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, medication if needed, enrichment, and plenty of affection. I closely monitor behavior, appetite, and overall well-being and provide detailed updates with photos.

About: I have had dogs and loved them my entire life. I grew up with Rottweilers and St Benards so the big ones definitely have my heart. I currently have two Border Collie X Australian Shepherd mixes that are incredibly friendly and smart. I started my pet professional career out in 2012 as a kennel technician at the Clinton Humane Society. I have worked for two different vet clinics as a vet technician giving medications, doing ivs, doing wound care, and being apart of surgery staff. I do some special handling dog training for anxious and semi aggressive dogs. My passion for special handling dogs started when I trained as a pet stylist. I got hands on experience helping stressed dogs relax and make situations better for them. I currently work in the Quad Cities as a pet stylist, working with both dogs and cats. I am very familiar and comfortable working with all kinds of animals be it furry, scaley or feathery. I do animal care for individual animals and also for hobby farms with chickens, ducks, goats, llamas and sheep. I am a very particular person when it comes to my own animals' care. Being very detailed oriented and handling your pets care is important to me. I think they deserve their care to be attentive and comfortable. Animals are not only something I am very passionate about but what I have revolved my life around. My days start around 5-5:30am. I typically take the dogs for a walk and have an hour to give them a bathroom break. I work as a pet stylist from 7-3:30. I can give bathroom breaks on my lunch break as needed. I keep all dogs leashed when outside to guarantee their safety. I have a fenced in back/side yard where I monitor dogs so they can be off leash if they are able to be trusted. I never leave pets unattended. I can kennel dogs to keep separate if needed. I am also trained in animal first aid. I deep clean and sanitize everything frequently.

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.

“Jason was a tremendous help while I was on vacation and learned that my dad was about to pass away. Initially, he was to keep my dog for a week, but because I had to fly home because of my dad’s eventual passing and to prepare the funeral arrangements, Jason kindly extended my booking twice during the whole ordeal, and at a discounted rate. He was very empathetic, and told me not to worry about my dog, which alleviated so much of a very stressful situation. This was my second time using Jason, and I will continue to do so in the future.”
“Gracy loves it here. She gets excited coming down the lane and runs straight for the house like it was her own. We used the pick up option this time and watched on our house cams as our dog ran straight to Sherrys vehicle and jumped right in. It's a relief to know she has no hesitation about spending time here!”
“Lori was incredible from beginning to the end. She was flexible about drop off and about pick up. Unfortunately, I had gotten sick and she was accommodating about picking up Cookie a day later. She gave us regular updates and photos of Cookie during the day. Overall, I appreciate how well she took her care of Cookie during his stay and her flexibility.”

“Ali was awesome! This was my first time leaving my pup with a dog sitter on rover, and Ali helped ease my worries. She kept me updated on my pup and sent lots of photos. She was also very sweet and understanding about my dog’s quirks (aka her barking). Would definitely recommend to others who need their dog watched for a few days! I look forward to taking my pup back to Ali’s whenever I have to go out of town!”
“Christian was wonderful! Extremely responsive, easy to contact, friendly, and organized. He sent us updates throughout the stay and we felt very relaxed knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend!”

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!!!!”
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.
“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!”
“Ashley was awesome! She had quick replies, sent me pictures of fifi, and was just all around a great sitter! I can tell fifi was very happy and loved when she stayed! i will definitely rebook with her again :)”
“Trish is awesome!!! She provides regular updates and is such a big help and so friendly with our golden retriever. We were worried he was not going to want to come home since it looked like he was having such a good time! We will be sure to have her help any time we need a dog sitter going forward!”
