This is the first time I’ve used Rover and I chose the best dog sitter ever…Katrina went above and beyond taking care of my Turbo. This was an extended stay and she communicated with daily photos videos and updates. I highly recommend her for your dog sitter! Will book with her again.

We were nervous leaving our semi-newly adopted puppy anywhere, but also wanted to visit family for the holidays that we had not seen in awhile. We couldn't have chosen a better family! The whole family took such great care of our Mango with lots of love, runs, and snuggles. Thank you for all the pics! Helped my kids make it through our trip!

We really appreciated how attentive she was during the meet and greet - it helped us feel confident that the visit would be successful! Definitely looking forward to the dogs staying with her in the future.

Amy and Casey were wonderful with our dog Matcha. We left her with Amy and Casey for 9 days over the holidays and felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. We received lots of photos and videos showing Matcha having lots of fun playing with their dog Duke, and she was clearly feeling safe as she snuggled with Amy and Duke. Amy and Casey have a large backyard where the dogs can run around and they have a lot of experience with dogs. We will definitely go back and we highly recommend them.

About: I grew up with all sorts of animals and livestock, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and providing care based on each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and am happy to follow training routines, feeding schedules, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether caring for a playful puppy, a senior pet, or a shy animal, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel loved and cared for. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away if wanted! ☺️ Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work in an office from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. most weekdays, so I’m available before and after work, on evenings, weekends, and many holidays. On days I work from home or have flexibility in my schedule, I can often accommodate additional visits as well. When caring for your pet, I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure they’re cared for according to their routine. Whether it’s morning walks, evening playtime, drop-in visits, or overnight care that fits my schedule, I’ll provide dependable, attentive care and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise under my supervision. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I’ll always introduce pets gradually and make sure everyone is comfortable. If a dog needs their own space for meals, rest, or simply feels more secure in a crate, I have a kennel available and will follow your preferences and your dog’s normal routine.

We’re so grateful to have Elizabeth sit for Rusty when the other sitter canceled our booking in the last minute! Elizabeth provided outstanding care for Rusty and ensured that Rusty’s needs be met while spoiling him as well. She also sent a bunch of pictures and videos of Rusty that we enjoyed so much! Her acreage yard allowed Rusty to run around and exercise as he loves to be outside! Thank you so much for your care! Highly recommended and will definitely use the service again in the future!

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: I have been with dogs since day 1. I, personally, have always had Labradors. I currently sit my parents’ 4 labs, as well as help take care of my grandparents babygirl as well. Your pets safety, health, and happiness are my top priorities! As someone who’s pup is her best friend in the entire world, I will treat every pet as my own; meaning with all of the love and care in the world! I am currently a full time veterinary technician student with Penn Foster, so this is my full time job! I am more than happy to add in more hours of availability if it becomes requested. 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’ve taken care of fur babies of all kinds since before I could walk. I grew up with a dog and cat always in tow. I lived in the country, so learned fast that the world can be hard for an animal, thus beginning my rehab ‘career’. As I got older, I pet sat for neighbors and family friends. In my mid 20s I trained as a vet tech, prepping animals for surgery, giving vaccinations, nail trims, etc. Until the ISU Wildlife Clinic closed, I volunteered there, learning more care for wild native animals. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, I can’t imagine life without animals. I currently have a senior border collie named Lola, she has arthritis so sometimes she needs help getting around and I’m always willing to help my girl. I also have a senior cat. Currently I’m a doordash/grub hub driver, so I literally am free 24/7 to care for your pets! I will prioritize Rover over delivery, so I can work with any schedule you need. I’m available for repeat needs (several walks a week, drop ins, etc). I live in a duplex with a yard. For me to board a pet, they would need to get along with my dog, and she can honestly be a bit grumpy meeting new dogs, so I feel going to the client’s home would be best. I will respect your home and follow whatever instructions you have for the care of your pets.

About: I bring years of experience as a veterinary tech and positive-reinforcement, force-free trainer. I have cared for dogs through every life stage, from neonates puppies to seniors, always prioritizing safety, enrichment, and emotional well-being in a calm, dog-savvy home. In addition to a fenced area, we have 10 acres for walks and individual play time. My work schedule varies throughout the year, but we always have someone at home to care for our personal pets in addition to any other pets staying with us. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I work one-on-one with owners to ensure I can provide individualized care to help every dog feel safe, relaxed, and at home. I provide careful supervision and secure routines ensure the safest environment possible.

This was our second time using Rover, and we were initially nervous about leaving our two dogs with someone new. However, Beth quickly put us at ease, making us feel comfortable about her taking care of our pets for the day. She did a great job, and we would happily have her watch them again.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals over the course of my life. I lived nearly two decades on a farm where animals would often get dropped off and I’d care for them for the remainder of their lives. I worked at a veterinary hospital for 3 years and have 4 cats and a dog of my own. I’ve cared for many friend’s pets while they’re out of town, including both cats and dogs with medical needs. I have a passion for helping others and their furry family members! I believe all animals are deserving of our unconditional love and attention. When life calls you away, I’m happy to step in and ensure they get the utmost care. I’m experienced in giving animals medication, including insulin, and have worked with many different types of collars, leashes, and harnesses. I’ll do my absolute best to care for them in the way you prefer them to be cared for and am happy to take time to make a plan for the care that you expect. I’m also aware of signs and symptoms to look for in an emergency situation and have phone numbers and resources on hand to ensure they get the best care, with your permission. I love sending photos to my clients to show them what a great time we’re having together! Having worked full time at a veterinary hospital, care of animals and their owners was a part of my daily life! I try to accommodate all schedules to the best of my ability and am flexible with my schedule. I treat each pet and home as if it were my own. I spoil my pets and would love to do the same for yours. I work individually with you to come up with a visit plan that is tailored to your pet's needs and prioritize communications with you going forward to ensure your expectations are getting met. I relay any immediate concerns that I have during a visit by calling you or directly messaging you. Otherwise, you can expect a summary of the visit, with images, at the end of my visit with your pet(s).

About: I used to work as a certified dog trainer and managed a daycare / boarding facility for 2 years. I was an employee there for longer. 12 hour days every day with dogs of all types. I know how to administer medications, including insulin. I also know how to handle myself in emergency situations, I've learned dog first aid and I've broken up fights in my time that would've been deadly if I wasn't there. I am currently a general contractor making my schedule very open, my wife loves helping with pets of all kinds as well which allows for more care opportunities. The only thing that wouldn't likely work would be multiple days of house sitting IF I am not able to leave for 3-4 hours at a time. I have a hard time spending an extended amount of time not being able to see my infant son! I'll do whatever someone wants for their pet, assuming it's reasonable. I'm okay on multiple large walks, extended play time outside, anything like that is 100% okay. From dogs- cows- fish we would love to help provide dependable care and always ensure your pets are treated with the upmost respect and attention they deserve!

I'm comfortable walking larger dogs that pull the leash and explore or older dogs with limited mobility.

About: I have taken care of my two dogs for most of my life. Not only that but I have been taking care of neighbors and family friends animals since I was 14 years old. I love spending time with animals even if they're not my own. I don't have professional experience but its not my first time doing this sort of job I've found that creating a pet care schedule is essential for keeping your furry friend happy and healthy so currently I am not working any jobs now, so I have plenty of time to spend with anyone animal. Creating a safe and trustworthy environment for animals is of utmost importance so unfortunately, I do not have a fenced-in yard at the time but I have a great walking route for my dogs, and we love to spend lots of time outside.

About: I have been with dogs since day 1. I, personally, have always had Labradors. I currently sit my parents’ 4 labs, as well as help take care of my grandparents babygirl as well. Your pets safety, health, and happiness are my top priorities! As someone who’s pup is her best friend in the entire world, I will treat every pet as my own; meaning with all of the love and care in the world! I am currently a full time veterinary technician student with Penn Foster, so this is my full time job! I am more than happy to add in more hours of availability if it becomes requested. 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 have taken care of my dog since he was a puppy and my brothers do for about 4 years. I also work at a doggy day care and am around all sorts of dogs and understand body language. I work mostly on the weekends. I am most available to spend the most time with your pet during the week. I have school but no more than 4 hours a day. I provide attentive and reliable pet care either in my home or in the client’s home, depending on their preference. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any specific care instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for by giving them plenty of attention and maintaining a clean environment. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, keep everything tidy, and ensure the pet experiences minimal disruption to their normal routine. I am also comfortable administering medications if needed and monitoring pets for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner.

About: From keeping care of my family pets in the absence of my parents at a young age to spending late nights as a sitter for neighbors’ dogs, I have taken careful care of dogs in all shapes and sizes since I was twelve. I love snuggling and bonding with dogs, and I adore being there for them when their furball parents are unable to be with them. I’m a part-time worker at a hotel on Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I work the evening shifts from 3-11pm. On Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I’m available to spend time with your pups all day! I love walking, and I would love to take your dog on my daily five mile walk with me as a fluffy partner in crime. I strive to create a friendly and loving environment for the doggies I watch. By providing them with quality time such as walking, playing with toys, or simply lying on the couch together, I will give your pup a space of peace and care while you’re away.

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.

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: I grew up with all sorts of animals and livestock, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and providing care based on each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and am happy to follow training routines, feeding schedules, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether caring for a playful puppy, a senior pet, or a shy animal, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel loved and cared for. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away if wanted! ☺️ Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work in an office from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. most weekdays, so I’m available before and after work, on evenings, weekends, and many holidays. On days I work from home or have flexibility in my schedule, I can often accommodate additional visits as well. When caring for your pet, I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure they’re cared for according to their routine. Whether it’s morning walks, evening playtime, drop-in visits, or overnight care that fits my schedule, I’ll provide dependable, attentive care and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise under my supervision. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I’ll always introduce pets gradually and make sure everyone is comfortable. If a dog needs their own space for meals, rest, or simply feels more secure in a crate, I have a kennel available and will follow your preferences and your dog’s normal routine.

Roxy was amazing watching Jack, they treated him like one of their own dogs. We will absolutely be coming back! She sent pictures and updates which helped make his first stay easier on me.

We’re so grateful to have Elizabeth sit for Rusty when the other sitter canceled our booking in the last minute! Elizabeth provided outstanding care for Rusty and ensured that Rusty’s needs be met while spoiling him as well. She also sent a bunch of pictures and videos of Rusty that we enjoyed so much! Her acreage yard allowed Rusty to run around and exercise as he loves to be outside! Thank you so much for your care! Highly recommended and will definitely use the service again in the future!

She did great with Titus! He seemed very happy and after our quick walk before getting in the car he started to head back toward her house. I think he had a good time!
