“Not only that my pups were in great hands and loves Kaylee and Nick more than their own owners, we were also at ease and stressed-free during our family vacation. Very clean, very impressed and very accommodating with all our needs.”


“Christina did it again. Frankie had another enjoyable vacation in Ladora. At almost 16 years old, he sometimes needs a little extra and Christina gave him the royal treatment.”


“Ashleigh’s level of care was amazing. She sent so many pictures while we were away and kept us informed often on how our dogs’ days were going. The way she described each of our dogs’ personalities and daily habits matched perfectly to how they are at home which reassured me that our dogs felt comfortable and at ease in her home. Will absolutely be using Ashleigh again without hesitation.”



“Eric provides great care for our pets. My sister used his services this time along with me and my mom and we were all very happy with Eric. He takes the time to get to know each pet and caters to their needs. Thanks again Eric!”


“Charlie and Murphy had a great time at Nicole's house. Nicole was great to work with. She was quick to respond to messages and kept us updated on how "the boys" were doing. We would highly recommend Nicole!”


About: I’ve been taking care of my dog since I was 7 years old. Recently I started taking care of my neighbor’s dog as well. They rely on me to walk and feed their dog when they go on vacation. I love spending time with dogs and cats!!!! I am currently on summer vacation so I am available any day of the week. This will change once school starts, then I will be available after 4pm. I have a fenced yard, one dog and one cat to keep your fur friend company. If needed I can keep them away from each other.

“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!”

“Shannon and her family were so amazing with our pups! We got daily updates with pictures of them enjoying their time away from home. Definitely would recommend for anyone and will return the next time we someone to watch our pups!”


About: My parents bred and raised dogs. I am very familiar with dog cares. I was involved in minor puppy disobedience training. We have had dogs almost our entire adult lives. We have had several and been through care for dogs of all ages. We can provide medications. We are a couple with 1 late teenage son still in the home. We all love animals. Wife works full time outside of the home. Husband works 2-3 half days a week outside of the home. We are able to provide loving care most of the time and bathroom breaks up to max of 4-5 hours apart, on the days we are both working. Our own fur family contains a 45 pound dog and 2 cats. Our dog loves other dogs and cats. He wants to be any cats friend, when they will let him. One cat is standoffish and will leave visitors alone and one will be their friend after a couple of hours. Our yard is unfenced so we provide leashed outings. We live near a nice area for walking and can transport to a local dog park for more unrestrained fun.

“We had our pups stay with Kelsie for a week while we were out of town. Kelsie was awesome! She sent daily updates/pictures and was super accommodating for the pups needs. We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future. Thank you Kelsie!!”


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.
