About: I showed pitbulls semi professionally when I was a teenager. I have lived on a farm most my life so animals and I always get along. I'm currently working from home as a Game Developer. I am on a rugby team that practices Tuesday/Thursday 6-8pm and games on Saturdays, so there are a few select times I'm not available. I have a Husky who loves making new friends and 2 cats that are indifferent to others. I enjoy spending time with animals whether its cuddles, active play, or just sitting in the room so they aren't lonely.

About: I’m more than just a pet caregiver, I'm an animal lover! I treat every pet like they are my own, providing them with the love, attention, and exercise they need to thrive. Trust me to give your furry friend the best possible care. I’ve had pets of my own my entire life and have cared for others pets as well. My dream is to one day own a pet care business/animal rescue facility. I currently own my own business and my schedule is very flexible. I can take time throughout my day to drop in for pet care and walks. I have 5 pets of my own so I know each animal is unique. I follow all instructions and appreciate any info you can provide about your pets preferences.

About: Grew up with all kinds of animals. Tons of experience babysitting animals for family, friends, and neighbors. Open to care for any pet any size/age! I’m currently working part time over night so I’m usually always available and have always had a passion working with all types of animals any age/size! I provide a safe space for your pet in a pet free and smoke free home. With years of experience there hasn’t been an animal I couldn’t handle!

“Lindsey is great! She’s super reliable and responsible, and our pups really like her. I always rest easy when we are away, knowing the pets will be well taken care of.”

About: I am a lifelong dog owner and hospital pet therapy volunteer. Through friends and family, I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I have remained active in retirement by walking my own dog roughly 2-3 miles a day. As a retired elementary teacher I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to devote to your dog. I don't believe in rushing visits or simply stopping by. I enjoy spending meaningful time with each dog to make sure they are happy and comfortable. I am available for home visits and dog walking. I currently own one dog and live in a condo so do not have a fenced in yard. I make sure to walk my dog at least four times a day. She is free to roam the entire house but will put herself in the basement during storms or fireworks.

“Sonja is very kind and attentive to our fur babies. She was timely in her arrival. We appreciate her.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for my whole life. My Aunt had me take care of her dogs every summer which included feeding,Walking,Playing, and giving them medicine. I’ve worked at a humane Society for dogs and cats, I took care of both. For the cats I cleaned out there living areas and feed them after. For the dogs I cleaned up any poop that was in there kennel. I played with them to get them exercise and try to train them a little. I enjoy any kind of animals seniors or puppies.I love animals and I enjoy meeting new ones. I’m a college student I have in person classes on Monday and Wednesday from 12:20-1:50 and after that I go to my other class to do labs which usually last till 5:00. On the other days I stay home and work on homework for the class while taking breaks to let the dogs out/play with them. I interact with them a lot and I let them go out side every 1-2 hours to go to the bathroom/play with them while I’m doing homework. I take breaks to play with them whenever I can.

“Amazing thanks”

I have a lot of experience handle dogs and some experience with cats. I ended up going in a new direction but I still love being around animals of all kinds. I am currently working 7am to 3pm most days of the weeks. I will be able to care for your pet before and/or after my work hours. Keeping your pets taken care of and you informed are my number one priorities. As a pet owner myself I know I would want those things.

They get along great and i’ve been able to train my labradoodle for commands and all that fun stuff!

I have two dogs of my own that are very friendly with a fenced in back yard with lots of space to run. Tons of toys as well!

I also have had cats for years in my household and I have a cat myself as well so I have plenty of experience w cats I’m working full time but I work as a nurse so my schedule varies week to week and is flexible based on days/ time off I would let a dog out, take him on a walk, and make sure he uses the bathroom. I would also ensure that if s dog needed watched while inside I would keep a close eye on his/ her behavior.

“Ms. Kay is the sweetest, and that goes for both people and fur babies. We would not hesitate to trust her with our sweet kitty any time!”

I have a lot of experience with large, high-energy hunting breeds and ensure that each pup gets enough exercise each day. My favs are the dog park and the beach! I also trained my golden retriever, Harper in agility! In my free time I love to volunteer at the animal shelter, to give back! So I have experience with pets with separation anxiety and those that aren’t friendly with other pets! I ensure all pet parents are updated with pictures and videos! I currently go to school in Iowa City and wanted to watch some pets over break! I am free for the entire break, Mid December-Mid January! Either in my home or the clients I keep a close eye on the pet! I ensure adequate exercise and keeping the pet out of trouble. When in the clients home I make sure that I am locking doors and can take care of other household chores like garbage, shoveling, and dishes!

“Rachel is amazing and I feel so fortunate that she was able to care for our very shy and skittish kitty. Communication was outstanding and she was very flexible when we unexpectedly needed to extend our stay. We felt 100% confident our beloved pet was getting the best possible care.”

About: I have much enthusiasm for helping people and pets out, am experienced in babysitting, and work well when under pressure and memorize instructions very quickly! Recently graduated from undergrad, I’m currently a part time student at another university (fully online, only one class) so I have virtually all the free time these days ! I give my full attention to the pets, and I have a secure home with various ways for them to enjoy spending their time either playing or simply resting.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was young. I am the biggest animal lover in my family so I am always the go-to for anyone that needs help. I have given diabetes shots and know a lot about healthcare in animals. I also love making homemade treats! I am a college student with no job so I have plenty of free time in between classes and completely free on the weekend to spend as much time as needed with your pets! My pets are always top priority so when caring for your pets, they would be my top priority as well. I like to stay active and explore trails in the area so I would provide a diversity of areas when walking as well.
