First time using Rover and jenevieve made everything so easy for us! She watched our boy milo for the week and went above and beyond for us! Milo looked as if he was missing us and so she took Milo over to her own home so Milo could play it with her pups and even got to stay the night! We appreciate everything she has done. Highly recommend this lady here!

Lisa was fantastic with our kitties! We came home to two very happy and well-cared cats. Prior to booking, Lisa met us and our cats at our apartment and was very attentive to us describe our cats routines and behaviors. During the booking Lisa provided detailed updates and pictures from her drop-ins to leave our minds at ease while we were gone for the holidays. We highly recommend her for any of your cat-sitting needs and will definitely be using Lisa again for future drop-in needs for our cats!

Cory took great care of Bella while I was out of town. I was gone during the Christmas holiday so he took time away from his holiday to check in on my four legged child. Cory tried to send me pictures of her to send to me but she's known to be uncooperative with photos. Cory listened to my instructions during our first meeting and even assured me he would be by every day. I can not recommend Cory enough if you are going to be gone from your fur baby. I'm sure that Bella did much better being able to stay in her home while I was gone instead of dealing with the stress of separation from me and being in an unfamiliar kennel. I will be booking Cory in the future whenever I am going to be gone to take care of Bella!

We have 2 dogs we left in Justin's care. A GSP and an Aussie, our GSP is friendly and loving. On the other hand our Aussie is an absolute menace. Not the friendly kind, however with Justin's care, patience and approach she warmed up quickly. I do not lie when I say this was a complete shock as she is very aggressive upon meeting new people. His natural ability to have our furry 4 legged friends warm up so quickly and feel safe in his care was a huge relief to us as pet owners. I would give my full recommendation to anyone looking for animal care.

Troy has been nothing but amazing, not only with our dog but with everything he does! Our pup is a bit people selective and moose was comfortable in no time due to Troy being patient and knowledgeable about how to handle a more reactive dog. My husband and I would 100% recommend him to take care of your furry friend too! He is always on time and makes sure he leaves the house cleaner then when he got there!

Seeing the way Cassie loves and cares for her own pets, I just knew mine would be in the very best hands. She’s always taking her own dogs for walks on different trails and prepping them meals from scratch. I’ve never seen dogs so well behaved and also so happy! Cassie is incredibly responsible and dependable, and I always know I can rely on her. I cannot recommend her enough!

About: I have never lived without a dog! I am a dog mom of 10 years to 2 rescues and my life revolves around them. I also volunteer at the Animal Rescue League of Iowa, where I walk the adoptable doggies. I would love to work with your dogs and cats too! 🐶 🐱 I am self employed, so I’m able to stop in to take care of your pets whenever you need me! They will be treated as my own. I have been caring for dogs for 20 years. I have experience walking dogs with a collar and/or harness. I have experience in dog behavior and what the dog(s) needs. I enjoy walking dogs, playing with them and their favorite toys, and giving them lots of pets and cuddles! Dogs are the only things in this world that love you more than they love themselves.
