About: I’ve loved cats my whole life and have grown up caring for them. I’ve had my own cat for the past 4 years, so I understand how important it is to provide patience, attention, and a comfortable environment. My sister also helps with a cat rescue and occasionally boards cats, and I enjoy helping her care for them when needed. From feeding and playtime to giving them space when they need it, I’m comfortable with cats of all personalities and love getting to know each one’s unique quirks. 🐱❤️
“Christina took great care of my cats. She was very professional, listened intently and followed my instructions for how I wanted them taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“I asked Ashely to care for my cats while I was away, and she was fantastic from start to finish. She arrived right on time, which gave me total peace of mind before my trip. Her communication was excellent — she sent regular updates, photos, and even let me know little details about how my cats were doing each day. Most importantly, my cats absolutely adored her! They’re usually a tiny bit shy with new people, but they warmed up to her immediately and seemed happy and relaxed the whole time. Knowing they were in such caring hands made my trip so much less stressful. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the past 10 years. Most of my experience comes from small to medium size dogs, but I’m also open to caring for dogs of any size. Additionally, I have experience with senior dogs that may take an extra amount of care/support (I.e., administering medicine, helping them get around, etc.). Im currently unemployed, so id be able to drop in at any time necessary. I won’t be available during the first couple weeks of December, but other than that I am free.

About: We have been pet sitting for friends and colleagues for 2 years so thought why not join Rover and do more! Our clients love my family and we love their pets so it makes perfect sense. I have 4 kids, a small dog and two cats and my small pets just hide if a visiting pet is too much for them otherwise they don't get bothered or bother anyone else, human or pet! I work from home and I have 4 kids who love cats and dogs and love to help out with the dogs that we already provide services for. We are trusted with hideaway keys to homes to let dogs out and we run them in fenced in yards to burn energy. Then we make sure they have food and water and kennel them if applicable before we leave. In our house, visiting pets are watched over by all members of the family. Sometimes we buy them their own special toy to play with. We make sure they eat and get any meds they might need.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Summerset
“Cory was wonderful with Briar, took her on long walks, belly rubs and ball playing and a few treats. All the things she loves. I especially thankful that Cory was flexible with my drop off and pick up times. While I was away each day, I felt comfortable that Briar was having a good day.”
About: Dogs have always been in my life. I volunteered at Animal Lifeline for 8 years and had a dog daycare of my own for a while. Dogs are everything and I’d be honored to love on yours. I currently work full time from home so doggie day care is definitely doable! My day ends at 3 pm so I can be that late afternoon or evening potty break or walk. Weekends have potential as well with pre-arranged time and notice. Should your dog(s) stay with me during the day, I have a fenced yard and no carpet in case of oopsies! If you request that I come to your house I am very reliable, responsible and respectful. I can guarantee a boat load of scritches and belly rubs as well as time for “business”.
“Everything from start to finish was great! She took the time to ask any and all questions to learn about Diggs and his needs Sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day of them walking. Would definitely recommend and use again”
“Mackenzie was wonderful with my dog, Brooke! She was so good to take us on last minute. She sent lots of updates and pictures, and always responded immediately to my texts. We would absolutely return again!”
“Alexandra is great with Winnie and very communicative. She understood concerns I had and ensures Winnie gets a good mix of play and rest time. I’m not sure Winnie wants to leave when I come pick her up! She clearly enjoys her time here.”
About: I believe that animals were put on this earth to show us how to love! The least we can do is return the favor ❤️ I work from home so I have all the time to show your pet love away from home! When I'm not working I have most evenings and weekends available to check in when they are at home! I have a Fenced in yard and two dogs to keep your pup company! I also have an XXL crate needed if that helps comfort them, so that they have their own space when needed!
“Osvaldo took excellent care of my Apollo even on a very short notice. I will definitely use him again!! Sent me plenty of pics and videos and updated me during the day. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my dog!!!”
“Meghann was so responsive when we reached out somewhat last-minute and communicated seamlessly while providing care for Monte. Would absolutely recommend Meghann and we’ll be using her again!”

About: I've personally had many dogs of different sizes and energies, including a Border Collie, Boxer, American Bulldog. I have experience in training (reward training). I am capable of basic grooming, including nails. The Tibetan Spaniel listed on my profile is actually my daughter's dog and he is only at my home during college breaks, otherwise, they are in Ohio the rest of the year Think of your dog's stay at my house as a vacation at Grandma's. Your dog will be spoiled to the extent that YOU allow (and maybe a tennsy bit more). 😉 I mostly work from home with occasional short stints in a workplace and a very flexible schedule. I can be home at any time to ensure that dogs can potty, get playtime, etc. I never work on the weekends. I have a half acre of flat, safe, fenced in yard with grass and gardens. My schedule is very flexible and can adapt to your dog's feeding, sleeping and play schedule. I have no issues waking early, etc.
“Was awesome with a last minute booking, easy to meet with and flexible with the pickup. My dog looked very happy and healthy at pick up and seemed to enjoy his time.”
About: I have had pets for my whole life, whether that be hamsters, fish, dogs, cats, bunnies, and even wildlife who need extra support to get back into their habitat. I have tons of experience with different kinds of dogs. I have had my dogs since they were puppies all the way to the end of their lives, which gives me knowledge about each of the stages of pet’s lives. I also have volunteered at a dog shelter for 6+ years, so I have experience working with reactive dogs to dogs who are extremely timid and shy. I can guarantee that I have seen all kinds of personalities between all kinds of animals. I also have worked with cats at the shelter, which also gives me insight on the way cats can be which could range from very sassy (like my cat Benny lol!), to the sweetest cats. Along with those experiences with different personalities, I have lots of experiences with injured animals and have had exposure to treating wounds/minor injuries in animals. I have had to learn how to treat my dog’s diabetes since she was recently diagnosed, and have accommodated my lifestyle to fit her needs as a diabetic. I also have learned how to manage an obese dog’s weight into a healthier weight. Overall, I have grown up surrounded by animals and have seen an abundance of different situations within different kinds of animals!! I currently attend a university in the Des Moines metro and will be commuting from my home to school. This ensures that I have time to go back and forth between my house and school, which will allow me to make frequent trips to check on the pet. I also live with my parents who work from home, so there will always be someone watching the pet and ensuring that everything is going well. I get off from school around noon every day, so that will allow me to go back home and spend the rest of the afternoon with the pet and pay full attention towards them!! In my home, I am responsible for feeding, bathing, cleaning after, and spending time with all of my pets. I have learned how to trim nails, properly bathe a pet, treat one of my dogs that has diabetes, and clean wounds when a pet gets injured. I have been able to experience many situations with pets and stay calm during an accident. I am willing to do anything to accommodate any pet because they deserve to have a life of luxury, just like us! I am also committed to ensuring that any client who has special accommodations for their pets gets those wishes granted and will do everything in my power to make sure the pet has a great time with me!!
“Jaden has an obvious love for dogs! He is very knowledgeable about handling different breeds and handling them together. Jaden went out of his way to accommodate my schedule as well as my boy Duke's special needs. I wish I never had to be without my bud, but when I do I will leave him with someone like Jaden!”

About: Growing up on a family farm, I have had the opportunity to care for many different kinds of animals (dogs, horses, cats, chickens, goats, pigs and cows). I have taken care of family and friends dogs for the last 20 years. I have raised 5 puppies and have shown a few of them in local shows. My kids are 13 and 10 and love taking our dogs for walks, hikes and playing with them in our very large back yard. I am home all summer and my school year schedule varies so I have plenty of time to take your pup on walks and play with them. I have a large fenced back yard and 2 pups friendly pups. I have the ability to take your dog to either a paved or dirt trail for walks or runs. My dogs walk 4 to 5 miles a day but I can definitely make the walk shorter if needed. I have the ability to separate the dogs if needed. I can also crate the dogs. Our dogs love to lounge on our couches.
“Scott was great with Jax, he gave frequent updates throughout the day and Jax had so much fun playing safely with the other pups at day camp, will for sure go back to him in the future!”
“Meagan has just the right amount of communication for our family regarding our dog. We know he is in good hands when he can't get out of the car fast enough! Thanks for opening up your home to our sweet boy!”

“Molly has been providing us with walks and doggie day care for a number of weeks. She is always reliable, professional, and puntual!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always loved caring for them, always helping my mom and sister with their own dogs. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I enjoy giving them plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and companionship. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family and want them to feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐶❤️ I am currently a student at Simpson College but I live in the Des Mois area. My classes only run until about 11am-12pm, so I am free most of the day! I also would be available for early morning drop-ins. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their normal routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow their feeding, walking, playtime, and medication instructions, while also giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m respectful of the home and make sure everything is left clean and just as I found it. Most importantly, I take the time to get to know each pet and their personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away.
About: I have a life of experience caring for my own animals including dogs, cats, newborn pups and kittens, a chinchilla, chickens, and geese! I regularly pet sit for my neighbor and have been asked to do the same by many friends. I have the summer off from teaching, so I am pretty flexible until late August! Then my schedule is limited to afternoons and evenings and may depend on location. I'm available to feed and play with your furry loved ones! I'm comfortable administering any medicine they may need as well. I've got it, no sweat!
“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 genuinely care about the well being of every dog in my care. I will treat every dog as if it was my own, which means lots of treats(if allowed) and lots of pets, belly scratches and cuddles(if tolerated). I have flexibility in my day to day life. I do deliveries part time so I am able to set up visits/walks around your pets schedule! I ask clients to leave detailed instructions. I want to make sure that while you are gone your dogs/cats routine stays as close to normal as possible! If that means your dog goes to paws n pints for a play date on Wednesday @2 then I’ll load up lassie in the car and get there! If your cat gets 3 treats at 3pm everyday then we will make it happen! All joking aside, I aim to please!
“Jen did a great job with Dove. We left Dove with her for a few days of walking, and she sent us updates and took care of her as if she were her own. Dove was sad to see her leave at her meet-and-greet and is wondering when she’ll get lovely, long walks with Jen again. She may be new to the Rover platform, but you can tell she’s been around dogs for years and knows how to take care of them. We’d recommend her.”

“Another great stay for our pup with Holly! We are so grateful to Holly for accommodating a last minute stay that our dog clearly loved. Excellent communication and care.”
“Cynthia took great care of our dog! She was kind, responsive and great to work with. We knew it would be tricky to get him to eat and she gave extra attention to make sure he did. We are so grateful!”
“Christopher been nothing but amazing with our pups. He’s gone above and beyond what we expected and that’s why he will always be our go to person. He’s done an amazing job I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs a sitter to watch over ur precious loved one”

“Shaelea was warm and welcoming to my doggo. I was anxious leaving him at a new person's home, but I had nothing to worry about! He had a great time and came home happy! Shaelea was great with communication and flexible with pickup and drop-off. I would recommend her and would happily board with her again.”
“Becky took care of Silky very well and took him for walks and updated regularly regarding how he was doing. She also picked him up and dropped him off which was very convenient especially with the bad weather with snow at the time.”
“Awesome Awesome Awesome 5 ⭐ If I could give more I would 😊 They did amazing...very attentive... understanding, they sent videos and pictures, communicated with us on how he was doing morning and night...Kimberlee and Mitchell understood the assignment...We had a problem with a previous Rover sitter and we really wasn't sure if we wanted to do this again but I'm glad we did because they were Awesome...We will definitely book with them in the future and if you have a fur baby and he is needy/separation anxiety go with them...there were other dogs around to help put his mind at ease (I didn't get any bad reviews) Again 5 ⭐ Don't hesitate 😊”
“Jaden is our go-to sitter, and once again they did an excellent job watching our dog for an extended stay. They clearly care about our puppy, and the picture and video updates were great. Our dog enjoyed meeting other dogs, and Jaden managed every interaction with skill and professionalism.”
“Jessica did an excellent job with little B and he came home happy and healthy. He can’t settle down without his dog bed, so we were glad we could leave it with him. We also brought his food and water bowl. Jessica was professional, competent, and caring. Five star rating, for sure! We will definitely use her again.”
“We have an incredibly shy dog. He is very leery of people and we have tended to not board him. Osvaldo and his family were AMAZING with our dog. They were petting him, he was sleeping at their feet, and they were taking him for walks in the park--something he never does well. We loved all the updates, his home was set up for taking care of dogs, and he had other dogs to play with while we were gone--something he loves. I think Osvaldo is a dog whisperer. Magic--sheer magic! Even our dog trainer couldn't get these results from him. We are forever indebted and will use him again!”
“Cory was very responsive and had great communication before and during Moose’s stay! When we picked up Moose after his stay he was happy and tired. He even got to meet new friends! Cory was easy going and handled my high energy dog well!”
“Ivana treated Max like he was her family. He was happy feeling part of the team with her dogs. He was pampered and loved. I will definitely use Ivana again.. so satisfied with her care for Max.🥰”
“Amber did a great job watching Clover!! She kept us informed on how she was eating and even gave her a few special treats. Clover loved the swimming pool. 🐶 We appreciate the great care she received.”
“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!”
“Elizabeth was amazing! So communicative, smart with how she handled the dogs in her care, and incredibly loving with my pup. I will absolutely be booking with her again.”
“Kayla takes great care of our dog, Bonnie! She does well with our anxious pup and we can tell Bonnie was happy while we were gone. Kayla gives daily check ins and is very responsive. We will definitely ask her to care for our dog again!”
“Rebekah was absolutely wonderful with my dog! My dog is special needs and a nervous nelly about nearly everything. I was the typical nervous parent, leaving her with someone new for the first time. Poof settled in so fast, and Rebekah did a great job with all of her needs! Her dogs are friendly, and gave Poof some canine companionship while we were away. To be honest, I don’t think she missed us at all! Rebekah checked in, sent photos, and made me feel super safe leaving Poof in her hands. If I ever need a sitter again, I certainly know who I’m going to! ❤️”
“Kim was very loving of our Ruby! She sent us pictures and let us know how things were going while we were away. Ruby had a great vacation playing on Kim’s farm and being loved on by her family. We very much appreciated that we didn’t need to worry about Ruby while we were gone! Will use Kim again and again, every time.”
