Dog Sitting in Ankeny

“Emily is truly one of the best! There is no one else I would rather trust with all four of my dogs! She is great at communicating, very trustworthy, and extremely reliable! I cannot recommend her enough!”

“Jacey has taken amazing care of my dog multiple times. She takes him on long walks, stayed at my house with my dog and has also taken him to her house to provide him care. She loved on him and treated him like her own! My dog also loves her so much! She followed all instructions I left her.”

“Atlas, my 3 month old puppy, would jump out of the car and run to the door when we arrived in Kati’s driveway. As a traveling ER Director; finding a secure, safe, and family atmosphere for Atlas while I was at work was the utmost importance for me. When Atlas would start wagging his tail and getting excited when I turned down Kati’s street……it was such a great feeling. Emma, Owen, and Delainey gave snuggles and play time (I think more snuggles)! Kati sent multiple photos and updates — playing with her pups and/or snuggled up in a blanket. If Atlas and I did not have to relocate, Atlas would be still going to Kati’s. I absolutely adore Kati and her family.”

“If animals could write reviews, they’d all give Kayla five paws! 🐾 She’s one of those rare people who animals instantly trust—like she speaks their language or has a built-in treat dispenser (she doesn’t, I checked). She’s incredibly attentive, always tuned into their needs, and is happy to keep them active in the yard or give them a lil' cuddle on the couch. Kayla is also one of the most reliable, kind, and punctual people I know. I’d trust her with any pet—mine included—in a heartbeat!”

“Ian was great at coming to help us on such short notice. We had him drop-in to visit our cats a few times and he sent us pictures every time. We really appreciated his help.”

“Crystal is SUCH a good dog mom. Absolutely spoils her dog and I know she would love to spoil yours too! She’s watched my dog from time to time too and they always have a blast together! Everytime we come over to her place there’s absolutely no shortages of toys or treats for the fur babies!”

“If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, look no further than Haley Freilinger. Haley is an incredibly responsible and trustworthy caregiver with a deep love for dogs—especially bulldogs. She currently has two rescue bulldogs, Gus (2) and Gooch (6), and previously cared for Ditka, who lived to 12, and Tank, who lived to an impressive 14 years old. Her dedication to her pets’ health and happiness is truly unmatched. Bulldogs can have unique medical and exercise needs, and Haley handles both with confidence and compassion. She has hands-on experience with every life stage—from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra care and patience. She also regularly helps care for her parents' dogs, showing her commitment to animals extends beyond her own home. There is truly no one who will care more deeply or more attentively for your dogs. Whether your pup needs medication, a structured walk, or just someone to snuggle and watch over them, Haley is the perfect choice.”

“Alexis has pets at home and is great with them. She is attentive and patient. She plays with our dog and is very good on walks.”

“Kendra is so wonderful! She noticed that my cat was out of food and gave him more for me. And my dog really emits her visits too! We’ll be requesting her services again, I highly recommended her if you need any help with your fur babies!! and... She is always right on time”

“Alyssa was very quick to respond to all correspondence and was on time for check in on our elderly dog. We had last minute plans come up and she was able to make it work. We immensely appreciate her helping us out and will definitely use her again!”

“Nicole and her family took such wonderful care of our Wrigley. She was so good about sending pictures and updates and Wrigley looked so happy and comfortable in every one of them. It was a relief to know she was in such loving hands! We would absolutely recommend and rebook with Nicole and her family again.”

About: I engage with dogs based on their unique needs and personality. I adjust to a high-energy puppy or a senior dog that needs patience and attention. I’ll keep your best buddy safe and happy. It’s best to leave your dog with someone who’ll treat your loved one as friend rather than a sitter. I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is open and flexible to working. I will work with your schedule as well to make sure it is to your liking. While I currently don’t have pets of my own, I regularly spend time at my girlfriend’s place, and she has three pups of her own! When I’m over, I like to take her dogs on walks as well as keeping them entertained. I love this bonding time, it’s my favorite part of the day! I’ll use the same practice and care when it comes to your beloved pets. Making sure they’re fed, happy, and healthy is my priority.

“Jaron was great! We needed some help with our pup at very last minute, on a busy spring break week of all times. Jaron was available quickly, was incredibly attentive to our doggo, and asked some great questions letting us know he really cares about pups. Glad we could have him caring for our dog, we will absolutely rebook with him!”
