About: I found my first love for dogs when I was about 5, and begged my mom to rescue Burrito Bob. I then grew up always having a dog around. My junior year of high school I decided to buy my very own goldendoodle, Toby James. Toby is the best dog ever, and more so my child than my dog! I have 2 goldendoodle’s of my own, and they have learned very quickly what it’s like to be spoiled (we love drive through, the word pup-cup, and car rides! Of course we also love going on walks and runs! I have grown up living with 5 dogs at once of all different breeds! I’ve also recently learned how to groom my own doodles! Dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I’d love to care for your dogs like my own! I have 2 pups of my own that I treat like children! I enjoy taking my dogs for long walks and taking care of them! I will walk and let dogs out during the days! I have a 70 and 30 pound doodle that I walk at the same time! We recently welcomed our first non-fur baby into our home in October, and I am looking for a way to be the best mom I can be! What better way than daily walks and our absolute favorite thing - dogs?!

About: I grew up with dogs and now have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own! Our cats are both American Shorthair and our dog is a golden retriever! My husband and I both work full time but can be home if needed. We also have weekends off so can give all the attention during that time. I have two very friendly cats who warm up quickly to other animals or hide until they feel comfortable! We also have a golden retriever who loves other animals and loves to play! I live in house with a fenced in backyard!

Caroline is the absolute sweetest! She came over to do a meet and greet with Toffee before watching her. She asked questions about her medication regimen, health conditions and preferences. It means so much to be able to find someone you trust to watch your fur baby! We will definitely be a repeat client.

I love dogs and would welcome them into my home as part of my family.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I could remember, I’ve had dogs my entire life and have one currently! I’ve worked at 2 doggy daycare/ boarding facilities for years as well. Ive been trained in dog warning signs, and facts about almost every dog breed. I have worked with un trained dogs, well behaved obedient dogs, scared dogs, you name it, I’m prepared for anything! I’m currently a college student so my schedule varies. Right now my availability is 6am-3pm Monday-Thursday. Feel free to reach out with times that work best for you, sometimes I can work things into my schedule! I have a friendly medium sized dog that your fur baby can play with! I would provide walks, runs, car drives, pup cups, and even going to pet smart if you need to pick up some things for our 4 legged friends.

About: Throughout high school, I was asked to dog sit many times whether it was for coworkers, friends, family, or people who knew me from a friend! I'm used to taking dogs on walks and caring for them in their homes. We have always had a dog in the house as well, so I'm familiar with the needs that have to be fulfilled for dogs! I am a college student and taking classes at DMACC. Since I only attend one in-person class, I figured I'd like to get out of the house some way by dog sitting/walking! I have a job at a restaurant that I work at for 3 days a week, but I wanted to find another way to keep myself busy until I transfer to a university this fall. In the past, I have always gone to a client's house to care for their dog or dog walk. I live in an apartment and wouldn't be allowed to have and care for pets in my home.

Traci was absolutely amazing to my sweet Penny. She even bought her a little skateboard to teach my bulldog how to skate since they are known to be great at it. Penny adored her and will use Traci for every Rover walk when needed. She’s prompt and committed to walking on time and very consistent. We love Traci!!

About: I have been taking care of family and neighbors pets since I was about 12. Growing up I already had every kind of critter I was allowed to have. My love for pets continued to grow as I got older. Previously I worked at Adel Vet Clinic for almost three years and I absolutely loved it. I had my son in January and am staying home with him, but still wanting to be able to get out and care for animals throughout the day. I currently am a stay at home mom with my three month old son. I am available during the week as well as weekends. I have a family whose dogs I take care of during the lunch hour and would love to have some more dogs or cats to see during the day. I currently have two cats and a dog which I am able to spend my days with playing and snuggling. I have some dogs I currently care for and get to go play outside with them and get some good belly rubs in. Whether you are wanting a mid day potty break or snuggles and care well at work or out of town, I’m here for it all.

Alok did a great job with Oakley while I was gone during a couple of days over the weekend. He showed up at the requested time, and sent photos and videos of each walk. I will definitely ask him to care for my pup again, and would recommend him to friends.

About: I have hands-on experience with a wide range of pets, including administering medications, senior pet support, and basic puppy training such as leash manners, crate training, and positive reinforcement. I’m patient, observant, and always attentive to each pet’s unique behavior and needs. Additionally, I provide detailed updates with photos and notes, so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Your peace of mind is my priority—and your pet’s well-being is my passion. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily life. I schedule my day around the pets I care for—whether that’s morning walks, meal times, medication schedules, or play sessions. I treat each booking with the same commitment I would give to my own pets, ensuring they get the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I prioritize consistency and reliability, which means I plan my weekly routine to accommodate the unique needs of each pet and family I work with. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or extended care, I’m organized, flexible, and always focused on providing the best possible experience—for both pets and their people. When caring for pets in their own environment, I focus on maintaining their daily routine and comfort. I follow feeding schedules, walk or play with them as needed, and keep their space clean and safe. I’m respectful of your home, and I make sure your pet feels secure while you’re away. I also provide updates with photos so you can see your pet is happy and in good hands. Whether in my home or yours, my top priorities are safety, routine, and love—because pets thrive on all three.

About: I have dog sat for friends and family for about 20 years. All ages and sizes. I got my own dog about 2 years ago and am interested in getting another dog but would like to see if I can handle more than one. I love being outside and playing with my dog any chance I get. I would love to do the same for other dogs that need attention while their family is away. My dog is very friendly and loves other dogs. We go on daily walks and I try to take him to the dog park three times a week. He is a very active dog so that helps me stay active as well. Its important to keep them out of trouble.
