About: I grew up on a farm and have grown up with many different species and varieties of animals. I have taught small animal and agricultural courses for 5 years in high school. I also have fostered dogs as well. I am current student at Iowa state. I do have classes during the day but they are spread out so I am able to take care of your pets. I have a dog park outside of my apartment complex and lots of space in my apartment to spend time with your pets. I have a kennel for smaller dogs already from fostering as well as basic food dishes, toys, treats, etc.

J B.
“J is, without a doubt, one of the best sitters anyone could ask for! He has an amazing attention to detail and he will never miss a beat with your pups. He took the absolute best care of my animals when I lived in the same area and I could not recommend him more! His love for animals is extremely evident and he constantly goes above and beyond to take care of all animals and households. Ten out of ten in my book!”

Alexandra W.

“Alexandra is so stellar! She cleaned up the dog's food bowls so nicely, she provided awesome Rover Cards with info about the visit and adorable pictures of everyone, including our snake! She went above and beyond, and my kiddos were happy to have her.”


Kimberly S.

“We recently had the pleasure of hiring a great cat sitter to care for our six cats, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. We knew our kitties were in good hands when we had a meet and greet at our house. Kimberly was professional, friendly, and very experienced with animals. We also learned that she works at a veterinary clinic. While caring for our cats, Kimberly went above and beyond to ensure that all of our kitties were well taken care of. Despite this, all six furry kids were fed on schedule, played with, and given plenty of love, attention, and back scratches. We could tell from the Rover cards and updates Kimberly sent that the cats were doing well and were quite content in their care. We returned home to see everyone in great health and good spirit. What really stood out to us, though, was how attentive Kimberly was to each individual cat's needs. One of the cats is overweight and epileptic, and she has a fairly special medication regimen. Kimberly made sure to administer it at the right time every day. Two other cats do not get along well. Another cat is shy around new people and tends to hide in the furniture, but Kimberly was patient and gentle with her, and things went smoothly overall. On the first day, there was a question about which canned food to feed; Kimberly called to ensure she had the right information. Overall, we highly recommend Kimberly as a cat sitter to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to care for their cats. Kimberly went above and beyond to ensure our cats were happy and healthy, and we will definitely contact her again in the future. Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to our furry family!”


Tiffany W.
“Tiffany has taken care of all my pets over the years. At one point in time she was responsible for my 5 dogs and two cats. My animals love her and I would highly recommend her to tend to your pets.”


Theresa J.
“Theresa is a very reliable and dependable person and animal caregiver. She has cared for, Mocha, our senior chocolate lab, and Boots, our cat, when we went on vacation. Theresa always made sure Mocha took his medicine and spent some extra time with him. Both of our pets loved Theresa, she has such a passion for animals. ”


Kimi S.

“Kimi did a wonderful job taking care of my cat, Ellie. She sent detailed updates with pictures everyday, and went above and beyond to make sure Ellie was taken care of. Kimi spent time with Ellie, and even left her extra toys. I highly recommend her and would love to have her sit Ellie again!”


Angela Z.
About: I have over 2000 hours caring for shelter cats. I am the guardian of five cats. I'm comfortable around shy cats, kittens, old cats, all cats! I can administer simple medication if needed. I'm extremely patient and will take the time to let your cat get comfortable with me, or back away if your cat is stressed. I would love to play with your cat! I love cuddles! I love chillin' from a distance if that's what your cat needs. I'm a responsible adult and will follow the directions you leave for me. Your trip away from home will be worry-free in my care. I can also provide excellent care for small animals. Growing up I had a summer job caring for rabbits and a rabbit of my own who lived to be 12 years old! I also had a pet guinea pig named Oreo. I have flexible job hours and can work around your schedule. I have a car and am not afraid to drive in inclement weather conditions. With my own cats, I feed them twice per day and give them hours of cuddle time. My experience at animal shelters has given me a lot of experience approaching cats with different personality types.


Sierra L.

“Sierra is amazing. Our girls Gracie and Cocoa absolutely loved her when we were on vacation. She is very responsive and isn’t afraid to reach out if there is a scenario or question. She spends time with your dogs instead of just doing the job and leaving. Thank you again Sierra!”


Mallory C.
