Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Valley High Manor, Des Moines, IA

“Vivian took really good care of my boys for a week, making sure that they got their medication and play time. She even scooped their litter extra times to make sure it stayed clean. I really appreciate the care and attention she gave my cats!”

“We absolutely love Rachel! She kept us up to date on our fur babies, sending cute photos and kind notes with each rover card. Our dog and cat were well loved while we were out of town.”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life! I do have a pup of my own, but am still sitting for those that are in need and don’t mind another dog in the home! I am also doing dog-walks and pop-ins! I work from home so your pup wont be alone. Weekends are usually open. I love all sizes and can’t help but spoil any one I meet! I have experience with both small and larger dogs. I would love to walk or jog with your pet, even if it is cold outside depending on what they can handle. Feel free to message me with any questions! I work for myself and from home so I am able to adjust my work schedule pretty well. No dogs have needed to be kenneled while working. I have a pup of my own that loves to play with others. If they do not get along, I have a gate at that can keep them separate-although I have not had this issue yet. We have a big crate that can home your pup when we are out of the house.

“Jenevieve is a literal angel. She was just supposed to do a drop-in to see Deku and let him out. My A/C went out the night before the scheduled visit and it’s was 100 degrees outside. Jenevieve took him to her home to watch him for the day while I was at work. If it wasn’t for her, Deku would definitely not be okay! She saved the day and saved me from so much stress during my first day at my new job! A literal lifesaver!”

“Absolutely amazing! This was my first time trying Rover and I look forward to using it again! Christina was amazing and responded quickly to my very short notice request. She was loving and caring to my 2 cats and my crazy high energy German Shepard. 10/10 would book with her again and will recommend to any fur parents I know in the future!”

Codie S.

“This was our first time using Rover and Allison went above and beyond taking care of our two cats while we were out of town!! She sent us pictures and kept us updated every day. We will definitely book with her again in the future!”

Ellie D.

“Our dogs are a bit of a handful and Ash did a great job! They got lots of love and attention and we felt very safe with her here. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and reptiles since I was a child and have volunteered in animal shelters. My passion is animals and my dog is the love of my life, and I cannot wait to share that love with your pets! My boy was VERY reactive when I first brought him home and we have been through multiple obedience classes together so I have experience with dogs of all temperaments and have special love for the ones who tend to be misunderstood. I am currently working full time but would love to take on caring for your pets on Friday evenings and on the weekends. My weekend availability is completely open! I live near a few parks that provide wonderful opportunities for walks with lots of spots to sniff and explore! I have experience medicating dogs if needed, kenneling them, and whatever other special needs they may have.

“Daniel took my guy on a generous long walk, and even brought him a friend to walk his (Daniel’s dog). Polite, respectful and right on time. Will be using Daniel again!”

Paula L.

“Was very easy to work with. Great at communication and scheduling. Will use again and would recommend for dog care”

“Thank you so much Yuejia! You did an exceptional job with our senior cat. He loved spending time with you. Thanks for always sending updates and doing a few extra things for us. We would absolutely trust you with Milo again and love to have you look after him. I definitely recommend you to all the cat owners and really appreciate all that you did!”

“My animals love Cory. He goes above and beyond, even taking my ten year old Pom Lily home with him during tornado warnings. I never have to worry with Cory taking care of my animals. He’s very responsible and kind.”

Shelley S.

“Kassy is very gentle and quickly developed a good rapport with our anxious rescue, Rio. She’s easy to work with and very flexible. We’re grateful for her.”

About: I’m new to the Des Moines area but I walked dogs and pet sat 8 families/pets for 5 years in Rockford, Illinois. I love animals. I am deeply concerned about safety and wellbeing of all animals which makes me an awesome candidate to watch your pets! Currently, I’m an editor and writer. I’m going to law school and I’m looking for the flexibility Rover provides. I’m currently working part time which gives me the luxury of having lots of quality time with your pets! Once I have enough pets to watch, I would love to do this full-time. If you let me know in advance, I can make just about anything work! I have always grown up with pets. Currently, I have a Blue-Tick Coonhound mix(Willie) and an Australian Cattle Dog(Clay). Clay is a highly active and reactive dog, while Willie has had health problems. I’m well versed in pet behavior and analyzing their reactions to ensure a healthy and happy pet!

“Best ever!!!”

“Caitlyn was a life saver! I had to be out of town for work, and my daughter also had to work during the day, Caitlyn was not feeling well and she still came and let my pups out. Without her, they would have been in dire straits. She was absolutely amazing and selfless. Recommend 100%”

Jennifer M.

“Morgan has been our regular dog walker for a few months now! she’s been extremely reliable and accommodating to occasional shifts in schedule! Anytime we notice something behavioral we might want her to observe with our puppy, she provides great feedback! I absolutely trust her with our dog and recommend her highly!”
