“Kaylee and Nick were fantastic. Our pups were well taken care of and wore out when I picked them up. They communicated with me throughout the week and even sent a couple pics. Highly recommend and we will for sure be back.”
“Lindsay was terrific. Jason immediately felt comfortable in her home, climbing up on the coach and rolling around happily. She did a great job providing food and snuggles and walks.”
“Rachel is excellent, very kind and loving: and so flexible with drop off and pick up times. She sends several updates daily. Our fur baby loves her home, her toys, and Dolly, too. So thankful for her.”
“Shaun and Katie were amazing to work with! I received pictures almost daily of my two dogs and they always looked happy. They took them for walks and seemed to treat them as their own. One of my dogs gets anxious and licks her foot. Katie told me she wrapped her foot to help with the anxiety. It put me at ease knowing she was aware of what my dog was doing and took action to help her while I was gone. My flight home was delayed and Shaun and Katie were super understanding about keeping them another night. This was one less thing to stress over and I knew they were in good hands. This is my first time using Rover and I will definitely be having my pups stay with Shaun and Katie again!”
“Angie does an amazing job and you can truly tell she’s an animal lover! I picked up my fur baby after a weekend stay here and she’s been sleeping all afternoon she was so wore out from all the playing! Would definitely recommend! Also love that she sends a lot of photo updates!”
“Bethany was so good to our aussie!! She kept us updated with photos and several messages!! Our pup looked so happy in every photo. Would 100% recommend booking with Bethany & I will be using her again!! 😊”
“Could not have asked for a better pet sitter! He kept me updated with lots of pictures, communicated consistently, and made sure my dogs got plenty of exercise. I felt so comfortable leaving my dogs in his care. Truly a 10/10 will definitely book again and recommend to anyone.”
“Kaylene was a wonderful host & made my dog feel right at home. She was very accommodating & kept an open line of communication the entire time, it was a great peace of mind. We plan on using her again for many more future boarding needs”
About: I have been involved in caretaking pets through Rover, my private pet sitting business, and through local pet shelters over the course of three years. I have also pet sat for friends and relatives. I am very passionate about the well-being of all animals and have even received training at pet shelters in order to provide optimal care. I have a part time job but can easily provide pet sitting services. My job requires me to work 8 hour shifts two to three times per week. If my work schedule ever interferes with a scheduled visit, I offer additional visits that day free of charge. I love incorporating pet caretaking into my day to day life. It is a big priority for me. I want to care for the pets based on their individual needs. I am here to help you keep them moving and healthy while you are traveling or busy with other important things. I’m very flexible and willing to help however best fits your unique situation.
“I don't even know where to begin! This was the absolute best discovery for myself and Sammy Sue. Everything about Nicole's care was top notch. My dog has never come home so well adjusted and behaved from me being gone. Her fenced in back yard was an absolute life saver and Nicole's loving nature made Sammy feel right at home instantly. If you want your pet to receive %100 loving care while you are away then this is the place to take them! 5 stars all the way!!!!!!! We will be back for sure, as I will never board my baby girl again! So glad we found you Nicole!!!”
“Deirdre was absolutely amazing. She sent many pictures and updates. After meeting her I felt completely comfortable and at ease leaving my Fur baby with her. Definitely recommend working with her!”
“Eric was great with our girls! They were so happy and had such a good time while we were gone! Also 10 stars for his flexibility for drop off/pick up! It was a huge help when our flights were delayed coming back home! Will definitely be a repeating client!”

“Chelsey took great care of Annie and provided great exercise opportunities for her. She also sent updates and pictures while Annie stayed with her. I would recommend Chelsey to others and wouldn’t hesitate to have Annie stay there again!”
“Adriana definitely eased our minds while we were away on vacation! Not only did Adriana care for our family 😻 pet we all love very much, but she also “looked after” the outdoor neighborhood “pets” that sometimes eat & stay in the makeshift “house” built to help them stay as warm as possible during these winter months!! She also went above & beyond doing some light housework inside & outside!”
“Rachel was great about giving me updates, sending pictures, and video. Overall communication was excellent. Our dog looked like he was at ease and enjoying his time with Rachel and her family. We will definitely book with Rachel and her family in the future.”

Jordon sends pictures everyday and to my surprise some of the pics….Oliver is sitting next to and relaxing with Jordon. He is very responsible & caring. He goes above and beyond. I will ask for Jordon every time I need someone to stay with Oliver while I’m away. Thank you, Jordon!”
“Maegan is the first person to lay eyes on my black cat, Pablo, which must mean she’s magic. So happy all the critters had someone lovely to check in on them, and big extra thanks for taking in my packages that showed up early!”

About: I am very passionate about animals and they have my heart. I have raised my own rescue dog, who is now 14 years old. I also have been an animal caretaker at a boarding facility providing all levels of care, including administering medications. I had my own pet sitting business in Arkansas where I cared for animals in my home and at clients homes. I also worked with Rover in Denver, CO! I LOVE animals, I volunteer with many animal organizations and I am a huge animal advocate. I am a student in massage therapy school, I am getting certified to be a yoga therapist, I teach yoga AND I am currently bartending as well! I would love to help you take care of your babies when you cannot make it to them. I know how important it is. My schedule varies, but lets work it out so I can help you!!! I keep all dogs on leashes, I bring water on very hot days and love to get them socialized if that is part of what you would like for your dog! I also love to spend time snuggling with dogs and cats in their home to make sure they are comforted and trust me.
“Angie was great, filled in for us last minute! She was easy to work with and accommodated a virtual meeting to go over instructions to fit our schedule. We were very happy with the care our two cats received!!”

About: I currently have a cat and grew up with a small dog, but I’ve always had a soft spot for big dogs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, and Rover is a perfect way for me to spend time with animals I love. Whether it’s a walk, some company, or just making sure your pet feels at home, I’m all in! I am a teacher, so I have the summer off! I can really make myself available at any time or day you may need me for drop-ins or walks. When caring for pets in your home, I aim to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely, give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and make sure they feel safe and relaxed while you're away. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own.
“Benjamin was outstanding. I have a shy and nervous GSD who he cared for like her was his own dog. They got along great! Frequent picture updates and narratives about how each visit went. Would absolutely have him watch over my doggo again!”
“Our situation was a new three-year-old rescue of a new-to-us breed and our very first experience hiring a drop-in service over boarding while I had surgery over an hour away. I can't recommend Sydney enough. She was patient, kind, intuitive, and did amazing with Lucy and was incredibly flexible working with us on my ever-changing surgery schedule. Very intelligent in her mind and heart. Will definitely rebook!”

“Angie watched both our dogs on short notice when we were in town for a funeral. Much better than trying to manage them in the car, and we are so appreciative! Highly communicative, and highly recommend Angie for any dog sitting needs.”

About: I am happy to help you and your family in anyway I can! I keep my rates low so your pet can get quality individualized care at a reasonable cost. My husband and I adopted a black lab mix from the humane society. We are training her to be a therapy dog. Growing up I had a variety of small breed dogs. We also have a cat adopted from Cedar Bend. We recently moved into our first house and have a fenced in yard. We also live close to paw park. I can stop in and check on your furry friend, give them a bathroom break, play with them, feed them, and do any other cares you request. We can board dogs or cats on the weekend if they are potty trained and get along well with our cat and dog. I work from home so I am free for daycare. Looking forward to working with you soon! I have a fenced in yard. We have a black lab mix and a cat to keep your pet company. We enjoy all the extra cuddles and play time when we host a pet. I am currently working from home and am able to take care of pets during the week and on the weekends. We are flexible with pick up/drop off. We let our dog go outside to the bathroom and/or to play in our fenced in yard every 4 hours minimally. She is welcome on the furniture. If we are on a walk she’s always on the leash.
“Highly recommend Jan, she was professional and greeted Mabel with affection!! She did have a couple other dogs during Mabels stay, and she was cautious as she introduced them to each other. We could tell Mabel enjoyed here stay as she had to go give Jan hugs before we left. We will definetly use jan again!”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs. I love dogs and cats so much, and I treat them as my siblings. I can be patient, and I am willing to learn how to get better. I can start working as soon as possible. I will be around this whole summer. (Summer break from College) I won't be around after summer bc I'm going back to Iowa. :( I will do whatever you want me to, I mean, it is completely depends on the costumers requirements. I am pretty flexible, so, thank you so much .
About: Since I was young, I have always been around pets of all sizes. My parents had dogs of all types and sizes which range from a large German Shepherd/Siberian husky mix all the way down to a cute little Cockapoo. We love on all of our animals and treat them just as family, they are our entire world! Throughout the time, I got my fair share of walking the dogs daily, feeding them morning and night (unless they were a puppy that required more) and just being able to love on them all the time! I have raised all 4 dogs alongside my family so I am aware of what to do in circumstances! Walking dogs is a great time for both me and your dog because they get exercise and I get to relax with nature and a pup! Caring for dogs and seeing their tails wag when their owner or loved one comes in the door is one of the sweetest things to see! I'm currently a student at UNI and have a part time job in Waterloo. Having the flexibility in my own schedule allows me to pay more attention and care towards your furry friend! I have a fenced in yard that is big enough for even large dogs to burn off tremendous energy as well as an open floor plan. This allows for the dogs to not feel cramped up and have enough space to lay and play indoors as well.
“Shelby was a wonderful sitter for our beagle-hound mix who has never been boarded. We needed an in-home stay when we were going to be away from our hotel room for an extended time. She kept us up to date with pictures and texts throughout the day. I highly recommend Shelby!”
“I have used Angie for in home drop ins and in home day care at her place. I had a senior dog and she took the time to learn his needs, and understands the personality of high strung crazy golden retriever. Also love getting the text and picture updates. She was very willing to help me out when I was in pinch also!”

“Elizabeth was extremely communicative and kind with our dogs! Our anxious dog who is very nervous around other people even warmed up to her enough to sit in her lap by the end of our trip.”
“Baylee is AMAZING! She was able to meet with me right away, and fit Winston in next day. She worked around my schedule and made me feel super comfortable. Listened to all my worries and made me feel so much better having a sitter. Winston absolutely loved her :) I wil definitely be re booking with her for any of my needs.”
About: I have been rescuing and caring for cats & dogs since I was 17 years old. Pets have a special personality that takes a special personality to care for them. I am also familiar with & experienced with giving oral & injection medications I work for the local school district Aug - June so I have summers off. But I have the flexibility/availability to care for pets year round My 2 dogs and 2 cats are very well cared for. We have a fenced in yard. The cats are not allowed outside but all are chipped and protected with flea and tick treatments. They are fed twice a day with occasional treats and water 24/7.
About: I have worked with and loved many animals throughout my life; gaining experience by working with rescues, shelters and non-profit organizations benefiting dogs, cats and horses in Iowa and Virginia. I have also worked in the pet care industry my whole life. I was a Pet Groomer for 10 years, have worked closely with trainers, supervised daycare & boarding, and have spent the last 3 years in Veterinary Medicine as a Veterinary Assistant. I currently share my home with 3 dogs and a cat. I often care for my parents' dogs; one of which is Diabetic & has recently gone blind. Helping her learn to enjoy walks again has been a great experience! I have experience in most aspects of pet care; dog sitting, boarding, basic First Aid, administering oral & injectable medications, grooming and training, and know that each pet needs a unique, gentle approach. First and foremost I believe in making your pet comfortable by sticking to their (and your) schedule as much as possible. By keeping feeding, walking & potty times the same, I can provide and calm and happy presence for your pet through a positive attitude and relaxed demeanor. I also enjoy providing enrichment for you pet through play, walks, games and treats. Pet care is my life! I am available most every day to help you keep your pets happy and healthy, and to help them thrive in their own, comfortable environment. From a walk around the block a couple times a week, to daily drop in visits while you're at work, and finally house sitting when you're on that special trip, I'm here to be that special friend your pet needs! Keeping your pet safe is my number one priority. From making sure doors and gates are securely shut, to triple checking medicine before it’s given and using an additional slip lead for walks and transport, nothing goes unnoticed!
“Tee-Tee was amazing with Aspen and Ziggy. Ziggy is a large rescue with big feelings sometimes. I know others have had unfortunate experiences with sitters or walkers, but Tee-Tee is exceptional and will be brought back whenever our schedules align.”
About: I've had dogs, and cats my entire life, whether it be the family pets, or my own. I've had and taken care of cats, and dogs. My girlfriend and I currently have two dogs, Harry a 2 year old Husky, Chow, Terrier, Poodle mix. Oliver a year and a half year old Golden Retriever. Pet care is a LARGE part of my day to day life. I try and give my dogs at least one walk or trip to the dog park every day. Our dogs are part of our family. They're very sweet, and loving. My girlfriend and I do not live together so they stay at both of our houses throughout the week. At my house, where I will be boarding clients dogs is partially fenced in, but when outside the dogs are always supervised and tied. I generally stay outside with them while they're outside because I don't think I can be too cautious when it comes to their safety. When it comes to a clients pets, I would be just as if not more diligent. As mentioned, I do have two dogs of my own, however when taking care of clients pets, my dogs will stay at my girlfriend's house to eliminate any possible conflicts. If hired to go to a clients home, I am happy to accommodate whatever instructions and routines they have for their own dogs or cats.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience and specialized skills. I have a background in animal behavior, allowing me to understand and address each dog's unique needs. I’m trained in handling both senior dog's and those with special requirements, ensuring they receive the best care. Additionally, I can offer enrichment activities to keep them engaged and happy. My commitment to creating a safe, loving environment makes all the difference in your dog’s well-being while you’re away. Dog care is a key part of my daily routine. Each morning begins a walk to get the day started right. I am available anytime your pup needs me. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on creating a familiar and comforting environment. I provide regular feeding, exercise, and playtime, ensuring routines remain consistent. I also administer any medications as needed and monitor their behavior for any signs of distress. Daily updates are given to the pet owner, including photos and messages. Additionally, I prioritize keeping their area clean and safe, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away.
About: I work at a doggy daycare/boarding facility although I haven’t worked there to long but that doesn’t change my love for animals! I personally have 2 dogs, 4 cats and a bunny named Ace. I’ve cared for a lot of animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, turtles, ferrets, snakes, geckos, bearded dragons, mice and rats you name it I’ve pry had it or had some experience with them. Big or small, young or old, I’d love to help your animals out in anyway I can!🐾🐶🐱 I work full time at my dog daycare/boarding job, but I have an hour off for lunch on week days that I work and work every other weekend with 4 hours break between my 2 shifts, but can always find time to make things work. I’ll do anything in my power to make sure your dog / cat is completely safe and comfortable with me, as I would my own animals
About: I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by furry family members. I’ve had a variety of different dog breeds — especially those labeled “aggressive.” Because of this, I know every dog has a story and is capable of love regardless of how they’re stereotyped. All animals deserve the same love and kindness as I would give to my very own. I have some experience volunteering at my local humane society & dog sitting for family members & friends. I have no problem tailoring to your animals’ needs and I will treat them with the same love, respect, and adoration that I have for my own fur babies. While seeking a job, my schedule is mostly flexible with the exception of some time to take care of my own dog. During the school year, I am a junior accounting student at the University of Northern Iowa. As my schedule gets busier, I am a great communicator and will dedicate the time & space to care for your pets or redirect you if I cannot give my all for your pets. When caring for your pet I expect to find food with instructions (feeding time, how much food, etc.), treats & how many they can have, toys or puzzles, and any other equipment you want me to use when looking after your furry friend. Please do not hesitate to share any boundaries or silly rituals that your pet requires.
“Tiara helped us out with a last minute dog walk while my partner and I would be out at work for 12 hours. Serious life saver! She is so so nice and very caring. She sent the best photos and even texted another update after she left to assure us all was good. 10/10 recommend ? Booking again for sure! ❤️”
About: I love animals. I have been around a huge variety from farm animals, to reptiles, from birds to domestic pets. I raised lambs, volunteered at a dog shelter, and have my lovely horse to care for now. I love big dogs and think they are often misunderstood. I will always follow your care instructions and will keep you updated on your pet to ease your mind while you are away. I work 2 part time jobs. I work fast food and I babysit. I do not work on Sundays, but the rest of the week my fast food job schedule varies. I know on Thursday the week before what my next weeks schedule is and will never accept jobs that I know would cause me to not properly care for your pet. I don't offer services from my home, but I am knowledgeable to know how to crate your pet if needed, safely attach harnesses, and will check all doors and locks before I leave your property to ensure your pet doesn't escape. I will make sure all water bowls and food bowls are clean, and that water bowls are filled each time I leave.
About: My name is Meagan and I have loved animals from the beginning of time. I have a rottweiler named Karl and a pit mix named Roman, so big dogs don't seem to phase me. I am in the process of getting my animal science degree from Ellsworth Community College with dreams of vet school in the future. I have a background of dogs of all sizes and ages as well as cattle and equine. I have watched family friends dogs for years, so I have a lot of experience when it comes to animals from other homes. I have never met an animal I didn't like and I'm not about to start now. I look forward to spending time with many more animals that will enter my life in the future.
About: I used to work at a dog kennel a couple years ago. For years I would also volunteer at the shelter in my home town. I’ve always had a dog with me while growing up and of course even now, I can’t imagine not having at least one! I’ve had dogs from all ages from puppies to old babies! I have 5 dogs (all different sizes) and 3 cats! I’ve baby sat my friends dogs and cats and neighbors pets like birds, rabbits, lizards, and handful of others plenty of times too! I’ve been around all kinds of animals and have owned a good diversity of animals. I absolutely adore animals and treat them like they are my babies. I’d love to help you out and take care of your pet while you are away or even let them come over for some doggy daycare! Pet sitting is becoming my full time job! I have plenty of time for my babies and I’ll have plenty of time for yours :) My life revolves around my pets! I have a fenced in yard for my dogs. I normally play with them in my backyard for at least an hour in the afternoon. They love to sunbathe outside so I like to sit outside with them and read. I have a kiddie pool that they love to play in too! In the evenings I take them on a walk through our neighborhood as well. At least one weekend day I’ll either take them to the dog park or on a longer hike/ walk which they absolutely love. I have devoted my days to pet sitting so I am available almost always. I take care of my own animals from sun up till sun down! I have a big fully fenced in yard that my dogs absolutely love! I normally am outside with them playing with them or just to keep an eye on them!
About: I have always loved pets and appreciated the love they give us in return. Growing up, our household always had a dog and a couple cats with the occasional fish or two as well. I currently live with two very precious cats that need a lot of love and attention. As someone who truly loves furry (and not always furry) friends, I understand the importance of taking care of them, just like how they take care of us. I am currently a student at UNI and have a few part-time jobs, but I have a lot of flexibility in my daily schedule. My evenings are usually the busiest time for me with various rehearsals and concerts, but those are scheduled in advance and are easy to plan for. Having been around pets my whole life, I know how to respect a pet's boundaries and how to gain their trust. I understand that I am a stranger in their home and that it can take time and patience for them to welcome me.

It put me at ease knowing she was aware of what my dog was doing and took action to help her while I was gone.

This is my first time using Rover and I will definitely be having my pups stay with Shaun and Katie again!”

“Eric was great with our girls! They were so happy and had such a good time while we were gone! Also 10 stars for his flexibility for drop off/pick up! It was a huge help when our flights were delayed coming back home! Will definitely be a repeating client!”
“Adriana definitely eased our minds while we were away on vacation! Not only did Adriana care for our family 😻 pet we all love very much, but she also “looked after” the outdoor neighborhood “pets” that sometimes eat & stay in the makeshift “house” built to help them stay as warm as possible during these winter months!! She also went above & beyond doing some light housework inside & outside!”
“Rachel was great about giving me updates, sending pictures, and video. Overall communication was excellent. Our dog looked like he was at ease and enjoying his time with Rachel and her family. We will definitely book with Rachel and her family in the future.”
About: I’ve owned and cared for pets of all kinds my entire life, as well as worked at a boarding facility for 4 years that took in dogs and cats (as well as the occasional rodent, pig or reptile) I’ll treat your pet of any kind like my own! i’m currently working part time from monday to friday and will have most availability on weekends, but i do have a a very flexible work schedule and can try to make it work! I prefer caring at a clients home due to the fact that i have cats of my own that are uncomfortable with unfamiliar pets. i’ll provide care to your specifications to ensure your pet is as comfortable and loved as possible!
“Emily was awesome to work with to meet our needs as a first timer needing dog sitting and with the meet and greet with Daisy! Daisy’s 5 day stay with Emily was great! We were very satisfied.”
“Shelby went above and beyond for my kitten. She sent me many updates and answered every question I had! My kitten wasn't feeling too good at the time and Shelby made sure she was comfortable and kept a close eye on her!”
