“Melissa is absolutely fantastic!! We were new to Rover and we have a 7 month old puppy. We thought that no one would be willing to watch/take care of him while we were on vacation because he is still working on his potty training skills. Melissa welcomed us with open arms and took excellent care of our little Pip twice now. She sends us updates, pictures, videos and works with our time table on dropping off and picking up. We couldn’t be more happen with Pippen’s vaca-mom!”
“Angi was great with our pups and they were happy and healthy! She sent a lot of pictures and videos, as well. She has a great property for the dogs to run around and they got along well with her dog. We will definitely use her again and again!”
“I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with Jayne and her family! He seemed happy when we left, and happy when we picked him up. I really appreciated the pics and updates Jayne sent. I highly recommend her!”
“This was our second stay with Krysten and her family. My dogs were so excited when they got out of the car and knew right away where we were and pulled me to the door. I know that I don't need to worry about my dogs when they are staying here.”
“Melissa was absolutely amazing. She watched our puppy over a long weekend and provided lots of updates, photos and videos! She also offered a meet and greet prior to watching her, which was very appreciated:) We will definitely book with her again next time our pup needs a sitter!”
“Deb is just the best sitter for my dog Pepe. She’s kind, caring, soft spoken, and he snuggles with her as if he were home! I feel so lucky to have found such an awesome caretaker for my little boo!😁🥰”
“Anna and her family were great to work with. The airline changed our flights unexpectedly right before a holiday, and Anna was so gracious and flexible with helping accommodate an extra 12 hours of care for my pup. I couldn’t be more thankful for having someone so kind watching Cooper for me when I couldn’t.”
“Thank you so much for letting Lillie hang out with you while we were in town! Paige is great at communicating and so sweet, she took great care of our senior dog while we were visiting from out of state! We got pictures and updates throughout the day which was so appreciated.”
“Absolutely outstanding! We highly, highly recommend Sheila! The level of communication and the photos as well as the amount of time she spend with our dog went far beyond our expectations. We will definitely want to use her services again!”
“Tracy was great to work with, very compassionate about her duty as a sitter and made Hank feel loved and appreciated!! I also appreciated that she was understanding about me being late for pickup as I am just getting settled into a new environment. I hope and look forward to using her again in the future!! Her darling Stella who is as well a Yorkie was just a cute girl. We loved Tracy!”
“Josie watched our dog for four days while we were gone on vacation. She was in communication with us throughout our trip. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times. From the pics we received, our dog looked like she had a lot of fun playing and relaxing too. She has been sleeping since we got her home.😊 I would book Josie again.”
“Chelsey was great and pretty flexible since I was out of state. I never had the chance to meet ahead of time because of my schedule, but I couldn’t be happier with how she treated me and my cat! Chelsey sent me nice updates and plenty of pictures over the week, which was especially nice over the holidays. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Zach was great and put all my anxieties at ease!! Instantly knew my dog was in good hands with him. He updated me with pictures of my boy and his communication was great! Would 100% recommend him to anyone!”
About: I have grown up with high energy dogs. My family has always had dogs since I was a child. We treat dogs like family. We don't currently have any pets. We had two black lab mix dogs for 15 years. I will feed and let the dogs out in the morning. Dogs will be fed again in the afternoon. Dogs will be housed in the dog kennel in the garage overnight. There is a doggy door for dogs to access the backyard during the day. They will be locked inside the kennel and doghouse area in the garage overnight. I have a fenced in yard. Dogs will stay in the kennel in the garage with free access to the backyard through the doggy door during the day. The doghouse in the garage is insulated with a heat lamp during the winter. The dogs will be played with and receive attention from myself three times per day. I will take the dogs on a walk around the neighborhood once per day.
“Jamie took in our Finn like one of her own! He loved her dogs and got on great. She was very flexible on drop off and pick up with helped us as travel issues came up for us!”
“Lauren was very flexible with pick up and drop of times. She sent videos and photos with updates. Pendleton had a great time and was definitely tired after having 2 nights of fun!!! I would highly recommend! The next time I need boarding in Sioux Falls I will definitely try booking with them again!!”

“Brittany did a wonderful job watching our two cats. We have a cat who gets anxious when we leave and tends to pee on furniture or clothes if we are gone more than a day or two. We were gone for five days and there were no such incidents thanks to Brittany’s attentive care. Our animals seemed happy and content as if we hadn’t left at all, and it was such a relief to come home to relaxed animals in a clean home. 10/10, thank you Brittany!”
“Elain arrived promptly for the bathing and grooming appointment for my dog. She was very calm, confident, comfortable and and efficient with the bathing and blow dry. I will definitely continue to have her come regularly to bath and groom my long haired dogs. Highly recommended!”
About: Cats have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I understand that cats have unique personalities and preferences, and I enjoy getting to know each one individually. Whether a cat loves attention or prefers their own space, I’m patient and respectful of their boundaries. I have experience with daily feeding, maintaining clean litter boxes, monitoring behavior and wellbeing, and keeping cats comfortable while their owners are away. I’m also familiar with caring for multiple cats at once and making sure each one gets the attention and care they need. As someone who has grown up with cats and currently cares for my own, I know how important it is to have a trustworthy person looking after them. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind.
About: I have been a nanny and dog sitter for 8+ years. I have experience with all sizes and ages of pets. I enjoy taking care and spending time with animals. I love getting to know their personalities. I am a freelance artist, my current schedule is pretty flexible. I open currently to new clients that are looking for drop in visits or walks. Since I have pets of my own, I am only open to walking and watching pets in their own home. I enjoy understanding animals and how to make them comfortable.
“They were super kind and approachable. We knew within a couple of minutes of meeting them that our kitties were in good hands. They kept us updated with how things were going and sent many pictures. We could see along the way that they didn't just do the basics for care, but also interacted with them as if they were there own pets. It was a great experience and we had no worries whatsoever.”
“Miss Madison is amazing! She took such great care of both my babies. She boarded my senior dog and did drop in visits on my cat. Madison also has a senior dog so it was nice for him to have a companion he could keep up with! She sent lots of pictures and updates during my trip that gave me the warm and fuzzies that my animals were in great care. I plan to book with her again soon! Thank you again Miss Madison!”
“I cannot recommend Amanda more. If I could give her 10 stars I would. She goes above and beyond with her care. My cat Marge loved having her over to visit and was always cuddly and super excited to see her. Amanda was very accommodating and made sure Marge was getting the best care. She went out of her way to do different tasks and extra things for my cat even when we didn’t ask. Will definitely have Amanda back when we need care for our cat again. Amanda you’re the best!”
About: I occasionally care for my brothers cat while he is out of town, and my friends have relied on me to care for their sweet cats when they couldn’t. I like to make sure the litter box(es) are clean at-least three times a week, make sure the house is clean, and the cat gets the best treatment with consistently full bowls!
About: Although I am starting fresh on Rover, I have cat sat for friends/family in the past; I am looking to gain more experience with cats so I can offer more specialties when needed.

I offer meet & greets ahead of time so I can meet both you & your cat to get everyone comfier. We'll discuss any concerns or directions needed to ensure all parties feel comfortable by the end of the visit.

About: Hi, I’m Sheila! I’ve been caring for animals since I was a child with experience ranging from dogs and cats to salamanders, turtles, and even a bit with birds. I've always had a critter near and dear throughout my life as a result! I’ve cared for a variety of dog breeds, including Great Pyrenees, German Shepherds, Jack Russell Terriers, Shi-Poos, Pitbulls, Aussies, Labs, and Retrievers—you name it! I’m experienced with puppies, having raised plenty, and I also have a soft spot for senior pets, including those needing medication and special care for conditions like seizures. I’m embracing a new opportunity and using this time to support my community in a meaningful way. Because of this, I have open availability almost every day of the week! I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and cared for when their owners are away. I take the time to understand each animal’s needs, build a connection, and create a space where they feel relaxed and loved—just like I would with my own pets.
“One of the VERY FEW people we trust to watch our pups.💛 Always quick to respond & is great with updates too! They love hanging with her pup & are always so excited when we pull up to her house!”
“Nyree Karina was able to accommodate day care fairly last minute for Sloane! She was very communicative, friendly, and sent many updates during Sloane’s stay!”
“Jordan Thank you for the special love you give Sylbie when we leave her with you. She is anxious to start her day with you, which means allot to us as we know she is being well cared for and loved. Thank You!!! Terry”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and caged animals since I was little. I also worked at Petco grooming for a few years. We have 2 Chihuahuas of our own, 2 Sphynx and an Axolotl. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible and open most days. Just let me know what you need and we can work it out! I will care for your pet in your home how you request me to. In our home we are very careful to not let our animals out loose, we take them on a leash if they aren’t in the yard and kennel our dogs when we leave.
About: I grew up with pets and love and respect them very much. We can learn a lot from them. I would love to make your pet feel safe. I work from home so your pet will always be with me and I like to give them a lot of attention. My schedule is very flexible. I make sure that your pet feels at home. I will follow your instructions to make your pet feel at home and I always hace extra snacks.
“We had a great experience! Melissa watched our dog for a few hours, and everything went smoothly. Communication was easy, she was friendly and reliable, and our dog was well cared for.”
“Absolutely fantastic!!! Her family took such good care of Oakley and sent updates often and was so accommodating and responsive. Oakley had the best time. Absolutely will be using again :)”
“Anna and her family are great! We used her daycare services while we had some work being done at our house and she was super flexible when we needed to adjust days last minute. Anna takes such good care of our pup, I highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m Chelsey — an interior designer by day with a lifelong soft spot for animals. If I hadn’t found my calling in design, I truly believe I would have pursued veterinary medicine. Animals have always been part of my world. I grew up around both cats and dogs and have over 15 years of experience pet-sitting for friends, family, and clients. My home is a very calm, grounded space, so I’m best suited for low to moderate-energy pets who enjoy a slower pace, gentle walks, and lots of presence. My puppy Nova plays well with other dogs and I'd love to have friends over for her during the day as I work from home with a close eye! Spending time with animals feels genuinely nourishing to me, and caring for yours would be something I do with a lot of intention and love. Because my home has carpet and an Airbnb guest suite above me, I’m best matched with pets who are past the puppy stage to teach mine good manners lol, are house-trained, and not prone to frequent barking — especially in response to normal household sounds like people walking. Creating a peaceful environment is important to me and helps pets feel relaxed and secure while they’re here. I enjoy walking in all seasons, maintaining consistent routines, and creating a space where animals feel safe, calm, and cared for. While you’re away, you can rest easy knowing your pet will be treated as if they’re my own. Caring for your animal would truly be my pleasure 🤍 — Chelsey Aside from Mondays being 9-hour days at work, I am home the majority of the week which is perfect for walks, attentiveness and allowing potty breaks in my fenced backyard. For boarding and daycare, I provide a calm, consistent routine so pets feel safe and settled. I follow your pet’s normal feeding schedule while offering plenty of companionship, gentle movement, and rest. My home is best suited for low to moderate-energy pets, and I adjust activities based on their needs to keep them comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for. :)
About: Hi! My name is Melissa and I'm so happy to be here! I have 15 years of experience caring for and walking my own dogs, and sitting for friends and family. I know the importance of getting some exercise in for your fur friend, and how challenging it can be to find the time some days! So I am here to help, let me take care of that task for you! I enjoy walking and being outdoors and I'd love to have your pup accompany me! I also own my own home with a fully fenced in backyard, and I work full time from home, so if you need boarding or daycare services, my home would be great for you! I have two pups of my own that absolutely love other dogs, so if you are ok with that, we'd love to care for and keep your pup with us, too! I work from home full time, so it’s easy to attend to my pups (and yours!) during the workday. I can make a lunch hour walk or drop work easily. And afternoons and evenings are pretty open! I have a fully fenced in yard and I am able to let my dogs out as often as they need, and they would be perfect companions for your pups when staying here as well
About: I would love to take care of your fur babies in our ‘pups paradise’! I live just a few minutes West of Sioux Falls on 20 acres! There is plenty of room for your fur babies to run, play & enjoy some time in the country! I have tons of experience caring for critters of all ages… from young to elderly… low energy to tons of energy…. and the super social to not so social. I love them all! I am currently working from home which allows me the opportunity to take extra special care of your four-legged family members. This includes time outside & plenty of play time! I have a very large, fenced backyard where your pups can run and play! Whether they are social and enjoy playing with others or appreciate a little more solitude, I can adjust the space to meet their needs and keep them safe & comfortable while you’re away!
About: My household of 6 are all animal lovers. We have always had pets in the home and love trying to train! Booking with me would get you 10 extra hands to love and play with your pet when you are away! I run a bakery so I write my work schedule for me and family as we all work together. I am almost always able to have someone here 24 hours a day to care for your pets. We have 3 cats currently in the home as well as 4 children to help! I have a fenced in yard as well as a larger unfenced yard for your pet to play in. Your pets can coexist together with my 3 cats or be kept separate, whichever works best for you and your pet. I love to snuggle and give belly rubs to all pets. I am flexible with potty and playtime schedules.
“Emily and her pups were amazing sitters for our boy Sonoma today! We were nervous about leaving him with someone for the first time but after chatting with Emily and meeting her and her 2 dogs for a few minutes the day before the planned sitting…we were totally confident that he was in good hands. Emily is such a kind hearted person with a genuine love for dogs and it shows in her care for her own. Sonoma immediately warmed up to her and the 3 puppies were able to have a great time together. She was considerate of our routine/habits and sent pictures all day long, which we were so thankful to have! Sonoma didn’t want to leave Emily’s house and even sat in protest on her porch. We would absolutely love/plan to use Emily again and would recommend her to anyone looking for fantastic care in Paradise!”

About: Growing up I've always had pets of all shapes and sizes. My household was almost like a shelter because we would often take in strays and friends pets they could not longer care for. Neighbors and friends would also ask me to pet sit while they away or check in/walk their animal if they're gone too long. Because of all this I've cared for many cats and dogs of various ages so I understand what kind of care each animal may need. I'm currently going to be doing rover full time so I'll always have availability for your pets. Also I'm almost always around on holidays! At home I have three cats and two dogs (I'm not the only caretaker), and they're all incredibly friendly. Our house is a little small so another location is preferred.
About: As far back as I can remember, my family always had at least one dog/cat, each one of them holding a special place in my heart. I, now, am a proud dog parent of two Blue Heelers, Izzy and Brutus. I love every kind of dog and cat. I have experience with elder dog care and puppy care.

I can give updates on when they go to the bathroom. I can, also, send pictures of them.
About: My whole life I’ve been around animals… big and small. I grew up on and off a farm, as my dad is a Large / Small animal veterinarian! I’ve always had lots of animals in my home and love taking care of them (and lots of treats)! Also, I do move back to college in August. So Sioux City soon to come :) I’m currently home from college! I am a nursing major at Morningside university in Sioux City. Born and raised in Sioux Falls, and needed a fun summer gig! I can take your animals on long or short walks.. or just out to potty! I also LOVE a good game of fetch or tug! Myself at home I have 2 wild dogs that always need to move around ;)
“Madison was incredible. She helped us out last minute and was incredibly flexible and very easy to communicate with. Our dog absolutely loved her. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience with dogs big or small. I’ve had 3 different dogs in my house growing up and have also volunteered at the Sioux Falls humane society. I am currently working full-time and I am on a rotating schedule so I have every other weekend, or Tuesdays and Fridays off. I am available most mornings and evenings. I care for all animals like they are my own. I enjoy giving them all of the love and attention they need. I currently have a 4 year old american bull dog mix, 2 frogs, and 5 fish. I am allergic to cats, so I will love them from afar, if needed I can feed and change litter boxes.
About: Have been around dogs my whole life. Have taken care of my parent’s dog for 5 years. I have experience administering medications as well as assisting dogs with limited mobility. I currently work part time, but my schedule is flexible for both weekdays and weekends. I can walk your dogs, do drop in visits, or overnight stays. I can watch your dogs at your home where they can be comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I will give them plenty of love and attention.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I work from home full time. This gives me the flexibility to be there for your pup throughout the day while still managing my workload responsibly. Your dog will enjoy having someone around to give them attention, playtime, and the personal care they deserve! Working from home makes pet care easy for me to fit in, since I can handle walks, feeding, and playtime during breaks while still giving the pets constant supervision without disrupting my work. I live in a one-bedroom apartment where I can host pets, and I’m also able to provide walks and potty breaks. I’m flexible and always open to clear communication with owners.

I work a 8-5 job so and have some flexibility when it comes to your pets needs! Whatever time or day you need, I just need a brief heads up and I can assist in taking care of your pet! I’m a firm believer of leaving a space better than you left it. While I can’t offer services in my own home (I have two cats who came from an unfortunate situation and don’t play well with others unfortunately) but I will make it seem like the only trace of me in your space is your pet being well taken care of!

“Melissa is absolutely fantastic!! We were new to Rover and we have a 7 month old puppy. We thought that no one would be willing to watch/take care of him while we were on vacation because he is still working on his potty training skills. Melissa welcomed us with open arms and took excellent care of our little Pip twice now. She sends us updates, pictures, videos and works with our time table on dropping off and picking up. We couldn’t be more happen with Pippen’s vaca-mom!”
“Angi was great with our pups and they were happy and healthy! She sent a lot of pictures and videos, as well. She has a great property for the dogs to run around and they got along well with her dog. We will definitely use her again and again!”
“This was our second stay with Krysten and her family. My dogs were so excited when they got out of the car and knew right away where we were and pulled me to the door. I know that I don't need to worry about my dogs when they are staying here.”
“Deb is just the best sitter for my dog Pepe. She’s kind, caring, soft spoken, and he snuggles with her as if he were home! I feel so lucky to have found such an awesome caretaker for my little boo!😁🥰”
“Anna and her family were great to work with. The airline changed our flights unexpectedly right before a holiday, and Anna was so gracious and flexible with helping accommodate an extra 12 hours of care for my pup. I couldn’t be more thankful for having someone so kind watching Cooper for me when I couldn’t.”
“Thank you so much for letting Lillie hang out with you while we were in town! Paige is great at communicating and so sweet, she took great care of our senior dog while we were visiting from out of state! We got pictures and updates throughout the day which was so appreciated.”
“Absolutely outstanding! We highly, highly recommend Sheila! The level of communication and the photos as well as the amount of time she spend with our dog went far beyond our expectations. We will definitely want to use her services again!”
“Josie watched our dog for four days while we were gone on vacation. She was in communication with us throughout our trip. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times. From the pics we received, our dog looked like she had a lot of fun playing and relaxing too. She has been sleeping since we got her home.😊 I would book Josie again.”
“Zach was great and put all my anxieties at ease!! Instantly knew my dog was in good hands with him. He updated me with pictures of my boy and his communication was great! Would 100% recommend him to anyone!”
“Jamie took in our Finn like one of her own! He loved her dogs and got on great. She was very flexible on drop off and pick up with helped us as travel issues came up for us!”
“Lauren was very flexible with pick up and drop of times. She sent videos and photos with updates. Pendleton had a great time and was definitely tired after having 2 nights of fun!!! I would highly recommend! The next time I need boarding in Sioux Falls I will definitely try booking with them again!!”
“Casandra was Amazing! She took such great care of ur dog while we were out of town. Always texting pictures and updates of how he was doing. I would definitley recommend! Thank you so much Casandra.”
“My dog had a blast at Marnie and Jeffery's place! Iggy loved their dogs and family members. Marnie sent me photos every day and I felt great knowing she was well-cared for. This was the first time I used Rover and I was a little anxious, but this was an excellent experience. I would definitely go with this family again, they're awesome!”
“Christina and her family were the ABSOLUTE BEST! They took such good care of my fur babies while away on a trip! Taking care of two high energy dogs is no easy thing to do and my expectations for this rover stay were exceeded. The daily updates left me feeling at peace knowing my dogs were being loved on while I was away. Would most definitely trust Christina with the care of my dogs again.”
“Amber and Calissa deserve a 10 star rating. This was our First time using Rover. I did not know what to expect. These ladies go above and beyond. I received many adorable pictures of Honey out walking, napping, and snuggling. Honey, even got to go to a baseball game and in a paddleboard ride. Thanks for everything ladies!!”
“We had an excellent experience with Jordan. She was flexible, friendly, and responsive. Our dog was well cared for, we received daily texts and photos, and we will definitely contact her again when we need to board our dog.”
“Shayla is very responsive and great to work with. She treats your dog like one of her own. She has an awesome large fenced in back yard with so much space to play. I loved all the pictures and updates she sends. Will definitely be back for more stays!”
“She did absolutely great job with pumpkin, she communicate with me often and send me bunch of pictures every time, definitely would recommend for anyone to leave the pet with”
