“Dulce was amazing! My pup can be a little anxious at first but she took the time to make sure he was comfortable and well loved! He really opened up at the end and when I picked him up, I could see how much he loved the whole family 🫶🏻”

“Alexis did a fantastic job looking after my dog Barrington for the weekend and I would highly recommend her as your pet sitter! She sent lots of updates and pictures and her communication was fast and easy to work with. Her dog Simon is a sweetheart and got along with Barrington really well. Alexis even brought out pet steps for Barrington to use that were from her old dog which was super thoughtful. Alexis is kind and her love for animals is evident!!”

“Kalli was absolutely phenomenal. Really helpful in booking and setting expectations. Was easy to navigate all the little issues that come up. Super responsive with updates and sending pictures. And was just really positive and pleasant in all ways. When you leave town and worry not just that your pets are safe but that they aren't causing headaches etc, it's great to have someone who is laid back, reliable, friendly and a good communicator. I highly recommend Kalli and we will be using her again any chance we get!”

About: I've had multiple dogs over my lifetime. I have always been a dog lover and am always sure to give them the love, attention, and exercise that they need and deserve. I work from home two days a week, so the only days I am not at the house with the dogs is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. On the days that I do not work from home, somebody is always at the house until 7:30 and back at the house by 3:30 I have a fenced in back yard, which makes for a nice safe area to play fetch and run around with my kids. For pets staying overnight, they will get walked at least twice, once in the morning and once in the evening. Depending on the owners preference, we can walk through the neighborhood, or we can take a short drive to Zorinsky and walk around the lake. I have three dogs, all with great temperaments and LOVE to play. I also treat our animals like family, so your pets are also more than welcome to be on furniture if that's where they are most comfortable.

About: I am attending medical school in the Fall of 2027 and would like to save up as much money as I can. I love animals, and feel Rover.com is the perfect opportunity for me to be around animals while also prepping for my future student loans. I am a medical assistant that specializes in administering local anesthesia to patients, so I am not afraid of pet sitting for animals that need more medical attention (pills, shots, dietary accommodations, etc.). I do not currently have any pets of my own for personal and financial reasons, but would love to care for your furry friends as if they were my own! :) I work full time Monday through Thursday starting at 7:30 AM at a dermatology clinic and a few hours occasionally on Fridays. I cannot leave for lunch breaks due to our busy surgical schedule, but have no commitments after work which typically ends around 4:30 PM. I have a fenced-in backyard and live in a safe, quiet suburban neighborhood. When I have pets around me, I like to give them as much attention as they'd like. If your pet is clingy, I can match their clinginess! If your pet is more introverted and likes to be left alone, I can adapt to their personal needs. I will always have a set schedule for feeding times, as well as walking/letting them outside. I am very flexible and can adapt to whatever the furry friend prefers/needs.

About: I have experience in training and animals handling. I have been called an animal whisperer. I am open to all pets even aggressive ones. I have experience in exotic pets as well. I am in college and I take care of animals in between my classes. This will not take away from my time spent with your animals and I will be fully focused on your pet while I am there. I have a large amount of experience with animal behavior. I can confidently and comfortably care for all types of animals regardless of temperament or aggression level. Your pet will always be safe with me.

“Mariah was absolutely wonderful with Doja! She treated her like she was her own and really made her feel like part of the family. Doja is still young and VERY energetic, so I was honestly a little nervous about leaving her, but Mariah was amazing with her. She had nothing but good things to say about Doja and made me feel so comfortable knowing she was being well taken care of. It was obvious that Doja was happy, loved, and spoiled while she was there. I will definitely be booking with Mariah every time we need someone to watch Doja. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of her! 🐾❤️”

“Valentina provided excellent care for my pug while I was out of town. She did a lot of things that made me confident my dog was in good hands. 1. She set up a visit beforehand, 2. She was welcoming and allowed me in her home during drop off and pick-up, 3. She was extremely friendly and polite and had several items to prepare so that I did not have to pack a bed. We even ran out of food as I forgot to check how much we had and she took care of it. She was prompt to respond and I was impressed with her frequent communication and pictures, too. I would definitely recommend her and return!”

JD was happy when I picked him up, did well with other dogs, texted only once to check on him and got a great response, so I didn’t worry as much and I will take him there again, was very grateful.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Waterloo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Waterloo is $27 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $28 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 429 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Waterloo. About 95% of Waterloo sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in NE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
