1. Jenevieve Y.
“Jenevieve was everything you could want in a pet sitter! We left our dog and cat with her while we were gone for a week. They both thrived and got loved on by the whole family. She followed feeding instructions to a “T” and gave them so much loving and attention. We will definitely book with her again! Can’t recommend enough.”

6. Maricela V.
“Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!”
7. Erin & Chris R.
“Erin and Chris are amazing! Highly highly highly recommend using them to watch your fur babies!❤️ They sent plenty of pictures updating you on what your pet was doing. I felt very comfortable the entire time I was away! I will be using them every time I leave town!”
8. Liam M.
“Liam took excellent care of our energetic mini-labradoodle! They are a dog friendly home and truly welcomed her right in! She got a lot of snuggles, attention, and walks. I was SO grateful having Liam watching her over a weekend while I was out of town. He kept me updated on her activities and sent darling pictures of her, I had such peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for. I highly recommend Liam and will certainly be booking him again! Thank you, Liam! 🐶”
9. Priscilla H.
“Priscilla was great to work with and our Pitbull, Star, loved her time with Priscilla and her dogs! We booked last minute and Priscilla was able to quickly get a meet and greet scheduled to see if it was a good fit. We got tons of pictures, videos and communication during our stay and could tell Star was in GREAT hands and was a happy girl the whole time. Our return home was in the air due to travel and Priscilla was very flexible and ok with our pick up time remaining flexible. Our dog was in great hands and well taken care of with Priscilla!”
10. Heather H.
“This was our first time ever leaving our pup with anyone and Heather made it the absolute BEST experience for us! She sent lots of pictures and updates of all their fun adventures and he was in the best mood when we picked him up and he even seems to be listening better after his stay! He definitely got his own little mini vacay with Heather and her family. I would 100% recommend Heather, and we can’t wait to schedule another play date!”
11. Scott S.
“Highly recommend Scott! Daizy spent 2 days & a night there. He took great care of her. Appreciate that he sent us pictures each day. Will use him again”
12. Cory G.
“Cory took great care of our dog while we were away. Our dog can have periods of anxiety and does not do well with other animals, he was able to handle her behaviors without a problem. He sent us regular updates and kept her active all weekend. She was happy and worn out when we picked her up. We would definitely recommend and plan to use him again for future trips!”
13. Jessica V.
“I have booked with Jessica a few times now and recommend her to anyone looking for top notch care for their pet. This most recent time I did not realize that my pup had a broken nail before dropping her off and Jessica saw it right away, took her to the vet, and went above and beyond to care for her during her week long stay. Also, my flight back to Des Moines was extremely delayed and Jessica was super accommodating and understanding. Jessica is incredibly responsive and I trust her completely with my dog Iommi. Whether you need a daycare stay or extended stay, Jessica is the person to book with. Thank you so much again Jessica!”
14. Ashley G.
“I could tell my dog was so happy during her stay and she returned to us so tired from playing all day. Ashley is great at communicating, treated my dog as her own, and her dogs are so friendly!”

“Kristy was great at communicating with us about how Callie was doing. Callie seems to have been well taken care of and well loved and played with while with Kristy and her family. Thank you!”
16. Ashley & Oziel H.
“Ashley and Oziel did a wonderful job with my dogs. They really treated them like family and it really put my mind at ease to know my dogs were well taken care of.”
17. Megan B.
“I’m extremely pleased with the care provided by Megan when she took care of my 2 dogs for 6 days/5 nights while I was out of state on vacation. I had never left them that long with anyone before, and one of mine (Callie) is very attached to me and has some separation anxiety. But my fears were put to rest by Megan’s kind and reassuring manner when we first met and even more so when she sent me updates and several pictures every day to let me know how my pups were doing. She let me know my 2 pups were getting along well with her 2 little dogs, and the pictures reinforced they were making themselves at home. I really appreciated that she has a large fenced in yard for the dogs since mine are used to that. I will definitely use Megan again and am so relieved to know I can leave my dogs with her and they will be well cared for. She is awesome! I highly recommend her.”
18. Kayla R.
“Kayla was able to accommodate my 2 month old puppy by boarding him super-last minutes while I was in from out-of-town. She was super helpful and so sweet with my dog Rāz! She had some other pups and a kitty to socialize with as well. Highly recommend if you're in the Des Moines area. Thank you, Kayla! (:”
19. Holly M.
“Holly did a great job with my two dogs. She watched my German Shepherd and Australian Shepherd. I chose Holly because she was a great communicator from the start. She's quick to respond and has a fenced in yard for the dogs to play.”
20. Christy & Erkam N.
“Christy and Erkham were so great! Dilly had a great time and were so thankful we found a trusted caregiver for us! Thank you Christy & Erkham!”
