House Sitting in Belle Plaine

“We have never had such a stellar pet and home sitter. She truly went above and beyond to make sure our babies were happy, comfortable, felt safe, and were well taken care of. She checked in multiple times a day with photos, videos, and general updates, which made us feel they were in great hands. We hope to have the opportunity to request Andreea’s services in the future!! Thank you so much for everything, Andreea!”

“She was confident when first meeting my pet and was super quick to respond after my original sitter dropped out last minute. She's a great house-sitter. She left my place cleaner than she found it, and helped Butters gain new experiences!”

“Mia has a little dog named Louie that she absolutely loves and adores-and every time she is around new dogs she wants to pet them, snuggle them, take pictures, just love on them. She is very responsible and kind to all and would be a great dog walker. Plus she loves nature and being outdoors.”

About: Growing up, I was always finding stray cats to care for, and after much pleading we finally got our first dog Dixie, who is now at a ripe age of 14 years old. In college, I frequently dog sat for my friend’s dog and this has continued even now! I also was fortunate to adopt two lovely kitties. Although I love dogs, I have enjoyed training my cats since it has proven to be more difficult than training a dog. I have always been an animal lover, and I believe spending quality time with your pet is important. I am excited to meet your furry animals! I am currently working from home, and my schedule is very flexible. I am planning to start medical school in the fall, and I am hoping to continue to pet sit once I begin! I currently babysit my nephew (not a pet haha) once a week as well. I live in a 2 bedroom spacious condo for my cats and they love the natural lighting. I think with cats, making use of vertical space is really important in maintaining their well-being. I also believe scheduled play-time can improve their moods so I play with them every single night for at least an hour. :)

“Katie was amazing with my pups! She sent me updates and pictures to let me know that they were ok and when I saw how happy they were, that made me very happy. Would definitely recommend Katie!”

“Tee - Tee took wonderful care of our 10 month old Corgi, Blue. She communicated frequently, shared lots of photos and videos, and really made sure he had plenty of exercise and engagement. We are so very grateful for the excellent care she gave Blue.”

About: Hello I’m Joy. I live in Coralville in 965 Flats Apartments where I work remote for the University of Iowa. I have been passionate about pets my whole life! My family always had pets; dogs, cats, birds, etc while I was growing up. I am very outgoing, I love taking my dog Rosy to the parks and on walks. I want to see more happy more happy tails in the neighborhood! I’m looking forward to meeting your pup, and getting them out for much needed exercise or just some nice couch cuddles and scratches! I work remote from the University of Iowa, so I’m at your pets beck and call! Just my chihuahua mix, Rosy and I will take at least 2 walks a day. I am flexible to what your pet needs; lots of walks to lap time cuddles! My apartment has a fenced dog park area, as well as plenty of sidewalk paths for walks in every direction. I have crates if your pet finds kenneling comfortable, or many sizes of dog beds in most every corner.

“Christine was amazing. She met with us prior to watching our fur babies so that they were comfortable with her presence. We received daily updates from her with pictures. Our cats loved her! Our house was taken care of while we were gone. We will use her again!”

“Elise was wonderful to our dog and cat while we were away! The boys had a blast and hardly noticed we were gone. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future.”

“Laynee is the best! She's hard working and loves animals! Especially dogs! She's very good with dogs and loves them all like they are her own!”

“We will absolutely be asking Kasie to watch our dogs again!! She sent pictures of Duke and Luna every day and you could tell they were very happy with her. This was my 1st time using this app and I'm really glad it went as well as it did! I would highly recommend Kasie to anyone with animals and i would recommend this app to everyone with animals.”

“Ariel has taken care of our Furbabies before and did a great job. They loved her and we would have her watch them again anytime.”

“Matt has incredible attention to detail and deep intuition when it comes to caring for animals. I call Matt the cat whisperer because cats gravitate towards them so easily!”

“Jessica did a great job taking care of our two dogs. They very much appreciated her companionship while we were gone. Jessica was very easy to work with. She was willing to do some light housekeeping and kept the house clean. She was also very responsive any time we wanted to get an update on how the dogs were doing. Thanks Jessica! ”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, as well as a few hamsters, goldfish, Guinea pigs, and a rabbit. I recently lost my first (of my own) fur baby and I would love to help take care of yours! Experience with dogs from 5 lbs to 100 lbs, and all breeds. Flexible schedule that allows me to cater care to your needs. Available anytime during the week and weekends, or drop ins as you need them. Condo with deck for your pup to hang out, close to trails and dog parks for exercise. I can crate your dog while I’m away.

“Rover made this transaction incredibly smooth. Chrissy is exactly the kind of person you want watching your dogs. She texted us photos twice a day and let us know what was going on. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. Thank you. *****”

“Eric is such a great person . He loves dogs and is so good and patient with them. He loves to walk, play, and spend time with them. I strongly recommend him.”

“Honestly, Kiah is the best dog sitter we’ve hired. 10 out of 10 we’d recommend her. She was so sweet, great with communication and sent us videos and pictures every day. She went above and beyond and swept the back deck for our dogs bc they enjoy eating walnuts to much. It was so helpful! She’s the best! ❤️”

About: 19 years sounds like a lot of time! But, to explain, my whole life growing up i’ve been surrounded by animals. Whether it’s big dogs (aggressive or not), small dogs, new kittens, or adult cats. I’ve taken care of responsibility for all. From cleaning , feeding , administering meds, being playful, there’s nothing I can’t help with! I’ve spent time in many different animal shelters and pet sitting for friends. I take great pride (and with a little bit of spoild-ness) to make sure animals are happy and taken care of ! I’m working part time now, mostly at nights , so day time care , and or overnight stays would be best for me to accommodate to! While I don’t offer care at my house (my two cats aren’t too friendly) I am super respectful and trustworthy in other peoples homes! I take care of animals and houses as if they were my own, and my house is my safe place. Not even a bad vibe allowed! Anyways, I make sure to leave no mess, no sad animals, and no unhappy clients !

About: I've watched three dogs at home (now two) for three years, and I've watched two dogs from a different family off and on for a year. I have experience with senior dogs, one of my dogs lived to 19, and one of the dogs I sometimes dogsit is 13. During the summer, my schedule is very flexible, and there's a good chance I can make any time work if I have notice a few days ahead. I try to let dogs do what they usually do, and don't try to restrict them more then what you want me to. I am very meticulous on getting them out to potty every certain amount of hours.
