“Nadine was the perfect choice for boarding our sensitive pup Meera. I’m super picky about who I leave Meera with because she can be temperamental (either super chill or super anxious), but Nadine handled her like a pro and will be my top choice when we return to the Iowa area. She updated us with pictures, and I’ve never seen Meera look so comfortable in someone else’s home before. Nadine was able to handle Meera’s medication schedule, noise phobias, and odd eating habits. I have no reservations about leaving Meera with Nadine again, highly recommend!”

About: I have two dogs and two cats of my own that I work hard to take excellent care of. My dogs enjoys daily walks and play time. I have cared for family and friends’ pets in my home and look forward to caring for yours. I am a teacher, working full time during the week. During the summer months I work part time during the month of July but am otherwise available during June July and August. I have a fenced in yard and enjoy taking dogs on walks around my neighborhood. I keep my own pets on a routine with feeding schedule and walking.

About: I grew up around a variety of animals. From pigs to cows. Sheep, goats, rabbits, hamsters, dogs, cats, fish, and more. I’ve seen and cared for so many animals growing up with a farm in the country and living in suburbs during school time! I know animals are too good for humans. Therefore I will do anything I can to always care and help animals in need. I can confidently say your animals is in safe hands :) As a college student, tending for my animals is a big responsibility. Feeding and maintaining the happiness of my pets is a great joy in my life. It is just a task that comes with caring for any animals. It is always worth the responsibility. Having two cats in my home allows for me to clean the litter box, provide food daily, take my cats for time outside, and to provide them with endless petting sessions. A clean environment ensures the pets happiness and well being.

About: I have experience with all ages and all sizes of dogs and cats. I grew up with cats and watched our neighbors dogs frequently when they were out of town. My grandparents had 2 Great Danes that I watched when they needed assistance and my fiancé has a heeler who I watch when he is at work. My favorite place is the dog park and enjoy taking my pup there whenever I can. I’m currently working part time as a nurse at Surgery Center Cedar Rapids. I am also a part time graduate school student so I am home studying when I’m not at work. Taking my dogs on walks and to the park is what I look forward to the most in my day and gives me a good excuse to take a break! I have a 2 year old blue heeler mix who loves other dogs and would love to meet yours! I live in a spacious home with a fenced in backyard and can easily crate your dog if needed. I live in a very walkable area with a couple of parks near by.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I have 5 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I’ve grown up around animals all my life and I know it can be hard sometime to watch them so that’s why chose to help you out. I want you be comfortable leaving your pet with someone that will love them as much as you do. I currently do daycare for two kids so I am at home majority of the day so I am willing to watch your pet during the day or even at night if that is what’s needed I have 2 acres of fenced in pastures and access to indoors. I have a mix of inside and outside dogs. At night they all come inside though.
