“I had some temporary health issues that is preventing me from walking my dog. My sister has used Rover in Des Moines and was pleased. I like Jeans bio and used her last week. She was timely keeping me informed when she was on her way and sending pics on the walk. My dog came home tired. I am pleased with the service and Jeans professional demeanor and love of animals. I will continue to use her.”
“Really happy to find a person that’s comfortable with a big, strong, and willful dog! Makes it easier to leave for work knowing that Michelle will give Maddie great care on her walks!”

About: Experienced dog owner for 25 years, offering dependable care for busy pet parents. I provide extra walks, attention, and love so your furry friend stays happy. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I’m newly retired and have a very flexible schedule. I can offer up to three walks a day—morning, midday, and early evening—and I typically avoid late‑night hours. I tailor care to each pet’s needs and can walk your dog alongside my friendly 18.5‑lb Aussie Doodle, or give your furry friend my full attention if that’s a better fit. I care for my own dog with a mix of daily exercise, enrichment, and fun. She gets a long walk every day—usually a couple of miles—and plenty of yard play. When the weather cooperates, we explore the riverfront or Duck Creek trails. She’s an energetic 18.5‑lb Aussiedoodle, so we add ball‑chasing, simple training games, and confidence‑building activities like hoop jumps. I always keep her leashed for safety.
“Ashley was very sweet to Hookah and attentive to his needs. She walked him everyday last week. She was very flexible with our schedules. I would highly recommend Ashley for dog sitting or walking. You can tell that she loves animals.”
About: I’ve had fur babies in my life since the day I was born. 🐾 As an adult, my husband and I have shared our lives with six dogs and two cats. To me, they’ve never been “just pets”—they are my babies, my kids, and a huge part of our family. ❤️ They have been my comfort, my companions, and my saving grace in more ways than I can count. The only time they’ve ever broken my heart is when it was time to say goodbye and watch them cross the Rainbow Bridge. 🌈🐾 Today, we share our home with Lucy, Leo, and Louie. Lucy and Leo are brother and sister from the same mixed-breed litter, and Louie is our full-blooded German Shepherd. They fill our home with love, laughter, fur, and plenty of personality! 🐶💕 Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. 🐾 With three fur babies of my own, my daily routine includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and lots of attention. Caring for your babies would fit naturally into my routine, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to make sure they get the love and care they need. ❤️ In between loving and enjoying my own fur babies, I’d love to spend time loving and caring for yours too! 🐾❤️ I’ll make sure your babies are fed, have plenty of fresh water, and get all the attention they deserve. We’ll go for walks, play in the backyard, enjoy lots of cuddles, and, of course, play that wonderful game where they bring me the ball—but refuse to give it back so I can throw it again! 😂🎾🐶 Most importantly, I’ll care for your babies just like I would want someone to care for mine—with lots of love, patience, and attention. ❤️🐾

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life! I have always had cats while growing up and currently have three precious kitties and a pup. I also had a pup while growing up too.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs in my household since I was a child, but my experience caring for cats truly expanded in 2020 when I began fostering kittens of various ages. In 2021, I took my passion further by working as a veterinary assistant, gaining hands-on experience with medical care and daily cat and dog needs. Most recently, in 2024, I worked as a kennel technician at a local animal shelter while on break from college, where I cared for cats and dogs of all personalities and health backgrounds.

Jenna is such a delight!!! She has cared for our dog multiple times now and we are so thankful to have found her!! Our little dog is shy, but she warmed up to Jenna really quickly! I so appreciate how Jenna communicates when she cares for our dog!! I always know my furbaby has been well cared for! Thank you, Jenna, for everything!!!
Jayde is absolutely amazing with my dogs, and I completely trust her with my fur babies. Knowing that my dogs are in such caring, loving, and capable hands gives me so much peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have someone I trust completely to care for my pups. She truly treats them like her own, and I couldn’t recommend her more!
Jenna took care of our dogs while we were away for the week. Despite the cold temperatures, she still managed to give them their walks. I appreciated her modifications according to the temperature and circumstances so that my dogs could still get their walks, but stay safe at the same time. Great job Jenna, we had very happy pups!!!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Bettendorf. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
