“Vivian was communicative and sent cute and helpful updates at each checkin. We felt very comfortable with Vivian checking in on and taking care of our fur babies!”
“Jenevieve helped us during a trip and she was always on time and very responsible with the care of our pets. She sent us photos every visit and gave us daily updates. Will use her services again for sure.”
“Ky did a wonderful job watching my cat over the weekend. She gave multiple daily updates and was so patient and understanding around my timid cat. Would definitely use her again!”
“Cory is an exceptional dog sitter! He took wonderful care of our energetic Aussie, keeping us informed every step of the way. He even handled a small accident in the house with professionalism and ease. Highly recommend!”
“Abby was a fantastic sitter for our elderly cat, Bob, who has some pretty high snuggle needs. She went out of her way to introduce herself in person before our trip, asking thoughtful questions to make sure she understood Bob's routine and personality. While we were away, she was easy to reach and quick to respond to any questions, giving us regular updates that made us feel so at ease. Bob seemed to warm up to Abby quickly, and it was clear he was well cared for while we were gone. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us true peace of mind. We’d absolutely recommend Abby to anyone looking for a caring, communicative, and reliable pet sitter!”
“Cassidy was a life saver, coming for a meet & greet & then booking last minute the day before when our other plans fell through. She was an instant hit with our 2 rambunctious boys, had great communication & sent lots of fun pics of the boys! Would definitely book her again!”
“Ashley took amazing care of my dog while I was away! She made sure to keep me updated at all times and sent tons of photos! Zeke enjoyed his time with her! I would definitely book with her again.”
“MacKenzie was so sweet with our dog! She did a great job of communicating throughout the process. I felt very reassured that our dog was in good hands while we were away.”
About: I have taken care of all size and breed of dog. I’ve had pets all my life! I have a passion for animals. I would love to be able to give your pet(s) the love and care they need while you’re away ❤️ I work at a school. I can do before 8am and after 4pm Monday-Friday Weekends I’m free unless blacked out on my calendar. Summer months: my schedule opens up more. I am not afraid of any pet and I am very knowledgeable when it comes to animals but you know your pet best! I’m happy to accommodate any rules you have for your babies.
About: Hi, I'm Jess — a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for the quirky, anxious, and cuddle-prone pets out there. Since moving to Des Moines in 2021 with my partner and our two rescue cats, Zelda and Juno, I’ve had the joy of fostering animals through Furry Friends Refuge and eventually adopting my “foster fail,” Theo — a resilient orange tabby who’s taught me more about patience, administering medication, and cooperative care than I ever imagined! What I do for you: I offer drop-ins, walks, and house sitting for dogs, cats, and most small animals (yes, even fish and reptiles). Whether your dog needs a midday adventure, your cat wants someone to chat with, or your lizard just needs the lights turned on at the right time — I’ve got it covered. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, house sitting, or dog walking, my focus is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I take your routine seriously, whether that means no dogs on the couch — or mandatory couch cuddles. You tell me what works for your pet, and I’ll stick to it. Why you'll like me: With years of experience across species and a deep respect for pet parent routines, my top priority is to keep your pets happy, safe, and stress-free. I treat them like family — and yes, I will send you photos that make your pet look like they’re modeling for a magazine. Let me know your rules, routines, and what makes your companion special — I’d love to meet them! ********** Since I’m new to Rover but not new to pet care, I’ve lowered my rates to help build reviews — let me know if you have any questions! I have a very open schedule and I thrive on chaos. I am also constantly updating my calender so you can trust my shown availability. Safety: I will treat your pet with the dignity, care, and enthusiasm that they deserve. I strive to provide a safe environment and a uniquely tailored experience. If you are a first time client, I will require you to answer a quick questionnaire to help me better understand the needs of you and your pet/s.
