I can’t say enough good things about Kayla! She responds quickly and is so easy to work with. She watched my dog in her home and made leaving my pup so easy and I came home to a calm, stress-free dog. She kept in touch and sent pictures to reassure me they were doing great. Best of all, my dog loved her!! Thanks Kayla!

I think Missy has got to be the best sitter my dog Bella has ever had. Not only did Missy welcome the challenge of a spicy chihuahua but she mastered it. By the end she let her hold her! And if any of you are owners of little anxious dogs you know this is a big deal!! Missy also did a great job communicating with us and sending tons of photos which we appreciated. Having Bella stay with Missy made us feel at ease, allowing us to enjoy our trip to the fullest knowing Bella was in good hands. Would highly recommend booking with Missy and I’m sure Bella looks forward to her next visit!

Jessica took care of my dog Iommi for a long weekend while I traveled out of state for my brother's wedding. It was my first time leaving Iommi and Jessica was the perfect person to leave her with. I was admittedly anxious about leaving Iommi for the first time, but as soon as I arrived the morning of drop-off Jessica made me feel 100% at ease. She took care of Iommi like she was her own and I know Iommi had a great time staying with Jessica and her family and playing with her dog Rip. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for care for their pet! I will definitely be booking with Jessica again!

Alivia was an amazing sitter for Ares! She was incredibly attentive and made sure he had everything he needed while I was away. She sent regular updates and photos, which kept me completely in the loop and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and I could tell Ares was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely trust Alivia to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!

She has a great set up at her home and is clearly skilled in caring for dogs. We look forward to booking with her again soon!

She went above and beyond in every way, sending me tons of photos and videos which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away, and it was clear Kiru was comfortable and well cared for. She cleaned up hairballs, vacuumed, and treated both my home and my cat with genuine care. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would trust her again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend Adrianna to anyone looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and truly great with pets!

This was the first vacation I've had in a long time where I could fully relax, because I didn't have to worry about how my pets were doing. We will be repeat customers!

We just returned from a 2 week trip, and Cory provided care for our 5 cats. He did a fabulous job! 3 of the cats were elusive, but the other 2 warmed up to him. He saw to all of their needs, and also fed the birds and squirrels for us. He did all we asked of him, and I was confident that they were in good hands. I highly recommend Cory, and will reach out to him for future needs. Thank you, Cory for the great job.

Nejra gave our two cats wonderful care for the six days she cared for them. One of the cats is diabetic, so Nejra had to stop twice a day approximately 12 hours apart to feed them and give one cat her insulin. Asking for care at 6:30 AM and again at 6:30 PM is a big ask, but Nejra showed up each day at those times! Their litter boxes were cleaned and Nejra provided pictures and details on how they were eating twice a day. She even took the time to give them pets each time she was here. I highly recommend Nejra and I will be using her service again! i

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

About: Experience training a service dog. I’ve lived with furry friends my whole life. I’ve always loved being around animals. I would love to help you and your pets. I have experience working at a doggy daycare and watching over large groups of dogs. I’m available anytime during the weekend. During the weekdays I’m available every evening and most of the day! I can stay at your house or drop in. I’m very comfortable walking dogs on leashes, playing with them in a fenced yard or inside your house if desired. I will follow instructions to the letter.

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and needs. My corgi, Vinnie, had back and hip issues later in life, which taught me the importance of attentive and compassionate care. Growing up with labs and sharing nearly 10 wonderful years with Vinnie, I’ve developed a deep love for dogs. Over the past 20 years, I’ve helped friends and family care for their pets, always treating each animal like part of the family. I prioritize providing personalized, one-on-one care, and only in rare cases will I care for more than one dog or one family’s pets at a time. My volunteer work with the ARL has also given me valuable experience with a variety of breeds and unique needs. I work from home and can care for your pet throughout the day. I am willing to do long and short walks, or just play with your pet! Playing, cuddles, walks, potty breaks, whatever they need! I am very good at recognizing the tells for various dogs. I can usually tell when they need to go outside, need water, or are anxious. I will adjust to what the dogs need and am a very open communicator. My house is clean and safe for pets. I do have stairs in my home, but am willing to work with dogs who need additional support.

About: As a dog mama myself, I understand that our dogs are more than just our pets. They’re an integral part of our family! I strive to provide them with the necessary care they need, but also the enrichment they need to thrive and live a happy life. I love to play with them, take them out for walks, and provide them with love and pets. It’s important to me that they are not just physically cared for, but they are mentally stimulated through play and emotionally cared for at every visit. I'm always mindful that all pets should be greeted with a slow introduction, that does not come off as intrusive, or threatening. Even the most social pets, can behave differently when an unfamiliar person enters their home while family is not present. I always take that into consideration upon each visit, as I get to know your dog/cat, and build a trusting relationship. Whether your pet goes out on a leash, uses a fenced in yard, or requires potty pads to go to the bathroom, I'll follow your instructions as discussed through the Rover app, or during our initial "meet and greet". Requested information about your pet -Medication schedule -Behavioral issues that may affect walking your pet on public sidewalks, history of biting or aggression while being fed. -Ongoing medical conditions -Vet number and/or emergency contact I currently work on a hybrid schedule - 3 days in West Des Moines and 2 days at home in Ankeny. I have a flexible schedule where I can pop around to your pet when needed. I have a heart for animals along with the patience needed to give quality pet care. Your pet will always come first and I would treat them as if they are my own.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, of all shapes and sizes. I love all animals. I’ve grown up with working dogs, big dogs, feral cats, farm animals, horses, and everything in between. I am always willing to go for midday lunch walks (in the Ankeny/Polk City area) or weekend check ins in the metro, while you are out and about being social. My husband works blue collar, so sometimes I have a lot of time to myself while he’s working, I’d love to fill in with walks at night or weekends in the Highland Park/Saylor TWP/Beaverdale areas, but willing to venture out into the metro. I am always very cautious when going in for my furry friends for walks, making sure they are safe. I’m full of love and attention and energy to burn so I’d love a buddy. I’ve worked with highly trained dogs, and will honor any and all training your dogs follows.

About: Interacting with animals has always been the highlight of my day. I have a decade of professional experience with pet care, primarily dogs and cats, but small animals and exotics as well. I have a beloved senior dog and a giant day gecko at home, but I grew up around a large range of animals, including dogs, birds, lizards, frogs, rodents and sugar gliders. I also have a bachelor's degree in biology with a particular interest in animals and plants. As a result, I have the experience, knowledge and passion to provide the high-quality care you're looking for. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means that I am able to devote plenty of time and attention to your animals. I will keep in touch with you while your precious pets are under my care, so you won't have to worry about their safety and comfort. I am happy to provide detailed updates and photos of the time they spend with me. I would love an opportunity to work with your family! I'm between jobs right now, so I'm able to provide even more time for your pets. When I do find my next job, I will be sure to give advance notice to any clients potentially affected by the change in addition to updating my profile. I will respect any rules and routines of your household so that you and your pets will be as comfortable as possible. I am always careful when opening doors to prevent escapes and take any specific safety concerns for your individual pets into account.

Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!

About: I've had dogs since the day I was born, and responsibly started taking care of them since I was around 10 years old. I've taken care of dogs from 8 weeks old to 16 years. As an adult, I've had 2 dogs and have cared for them in their crazy puppyhood to more gentle yet demanding senior care. As your dog sitter, I can provide enrichment via walks, playing, and basic tricks and skills you want me to work on with your dog. I can feed and refresh water bowls. I can help with medication if needed. I am happy to care for any of your pets' needs during a visit. I treat my all of my pets like my children and I am so excited to start caring for yours! I am a teacher currently on summer vacation. I am free to work during the week and some weekends from around 11-3 for drop in visits or walks. Once the school year starts back up, I may be available during holiday breaks and some weekends. Expect thorough reports and cute photos after a sitting or walk. As a regular user of Rover services myself, I know what I like and want from my sitters, so I will put that into my work. I will enter the home however is most comfortable with the client and lock the home back up when I leave. All walks will be leashed or contained in a stroller. I do not offer off-leash walks for the safety and liability of myself, your pet, and anyone we might encounter. If your pet is crated, I will crate them again when I leave. I will only enter spaces necessary for the care of the pet.

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

About: As a dog (and animal) lover with experience as a dog-foster mom, animal rescue volunteer, I will provide your precious pup with loving care. We lost our wonderful 15-year-old Boxer in October 2025 and after many years of having a 'home dog' as my daughter called Bristol, we are solely getting our cuddles and pets now from our pup guests. I'm looking forward to making your pup feel as 'at home' as can be while you are away. My experience with dogs in shelters, dog sitting for friends/neighbors, and being a dog mom for 20+ years to my sweet girls (Samantha, Briley & Bristol), in addition to being raised in a family that adored dogs, leaves me with a soft spot for each and every furry, 4-legged pooch. My Rover journey loosely started in 2018, but I was actively fostering dogs through Underdog MN in Minneapolis and didn't have the space to also take on Rover clients. Then, there was the series of events: pandemic, welcomed a daughter, and moved to Iowa. I started providing care through Rover in late 2024 and it has been so rewarding and fun. We have really enjoyed getting to know our repeat guests and my daughter and I talk about our newfound dog friends even while they aren't with us, hoping we can see them again. Safety first! Often, there will be two dog guests at one time, while always being mindful of temperaments and preferences of each dog. Occasionally, during busy times there may be 3 pups visiting, especially in brief overlaps of drop-offs and pick-ups. While dogs can have the run of the house, they are supervised and dogs from different homes are not left alone together while I'm away, which typically is for relatively brief periods of time to do a drop-off/pick-up or errand. Dogs are also fed separately in their own areas for safety. If your pup is more of a grazer (as our Bristol was), I may have to offer the food periodically throughout the day when another pup guest is present making sure it's available when they are wanting it but not leaving it out throughout the day. I know the importance of having strong communication and trust in those who are caring for your dog and hope to meet your pet very soon! I have the benefit of working remotely and enjoy taking time throughout the day to provide pet care. My schedule is flexible and I can adjust according to what's needed to allow pups to spend time outdoors or take walks. I have a fenced-in and very spacious backyard! I follow all safety instructions from each family to ensure animals stay safe and are always supervised. In addition to yard safety, effective March 2026, I have started a kennel cough protocol. Fortunately, there have been no known cases (asymptomatic or symptomatic) but after learning recently that droplets can remain in the air for up to 2 weeks, I've incorporated an extra cleaning step after each dog visit to have an extra layer of disinfectant and would also like to ask each family to share info on updated shots for Bordetella which is required yearly, but more ideally if dogs will be in social settings is ideal every 6 months. If you'd like to share a screenshot over the app or bring along the forms, it will be great to confirm the safety of your dog and minimize any risk to the next guest. In the same records should be the current Rabies and Distemper/Parvovirus (DHPP or DAPP) as well.

I think Missy has got to be the best sitter my dog Bella has ever had. Not only did Missy welcome the challenge of a spicy chihuahua but she mastered it. By the end she let her hold her! And if any of you are owners of little anxious dogs you know this is a big deal!! Missy also did a great job communicating with us and sending tons of photos which we appreciated. Having Bella stay with Missy made us feel at ease, allowing us to enjoy our trip to the fullest knowing Bella was in good hands. Would highly recommend booking with Missy and I’m sure Bella looks forward to her next visit!

Jessica took care of my dog Iommi for a long weekend while I traveled out of state for my brother's wedding. It was my first time leaving Iommi and Jessica was the perfect person to leave her with. I was admittedly anxious about leaving Iommi for the first time, but as soon as I arrived the morning of drop-off Jessica made me feel 100% at ease. She took care of Iommi like she was her own and I know Iommi had a great time staying with Jessica and her family and playing with her dog Rip. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for care for their pet! I will definitely be booking with Jessica again!

Alivia was an amazing sitter for Ares! She was incredibly attentive and made sure he had everything he needed while I was away. She sent regular updates and photos, which kept me completely in the loop and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands.

I think Bella settled in happily at Traci’s home which was a huge relief for me while away. Traci sent messages and photos while I was vacation which was so thoughtful. Thank you for caring for my little girl.

Loved having Karina watch Sunny while we were out of town. She was super communicative and sent lots of photos. I knew our pup was in great care and didn’t worry about her at all. Will definitely rebook! Thank you Karina! 🐾

Sadie loved her stay, with Kim and her family! Kim does a great job of updating you daily, and also sends pics daily, as well! They took great care of our fur baby, and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter! 🙂

Savannah was amazing! She went above and beyond for our dog. She provided pictures and videos during our vacation, and let us know how everything was going. You can truly tell how much she and her husband care. Our dog was sad to leave her and her dogs behind.. shows how much love he received! Highly reccommed!!
