“We recently had the pleasure of having Riley take care of our pets during an 8-day family vacation, and we couldn't be happier with her service. From the moment we left, Riley provided us with daily updates and pictures, keeping us informed about how our pets were doing. This thoughtful communication gave us peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation. Riley's dedication and care were evident in every update. Our pets were happy, healthy, and well-cared for throughout our time away. It's clear that Riley has a genuine love for animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. We will definitely be rebooking Riley for any future pet care needs. She is reliable, compassionate, and goes above and beyond to ensure our pets are well taken care of. Thank you, Riley, for your outstanding service!”

About: Hi I’m Lillie!!! I’m a reliable, attentive, and caring animal lover with 12 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, cats, and foster animals, and I truly love getting to know every animal’s unique personality and needs. I’ve helped train puppies, volunteered regularly at animal shelters walking dogs, and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I also have two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and compassionate caring for your furry family members. I’m very responsible, responsive, patient, and detail-oriented, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel happy and cared for every step of the way. My goal is to become your furry best friend’s temporary best friend while you’re away! I also love providing photos, videos and update check-ins so you can feel relaxed knowing your pets are in good hands. I’m a very caring, attentive, patient, and reliable pet sitter who truly loves animals and treats every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets while you’re away, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for in their home environment. I work Monday–Friday from 8 AM–5 PM with an hour-long break during the day, which allows me flexibility for check-ins, walks, feedings, potty breaks, and quality time with your pets throughout the day. Before and after work, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care, and I always prioritize keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I’m very responsive, detail-oriented, and committed to following your pet’s routine closely so they feel happy, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. Animals have always had a huge place in my heart, and caring for them comes very naturally to me. I care deeply for my own pets and always make sure they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for every single day. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same level of love, patience, attention, and compassion that I give my own. One of the most important things to me while pet sitting is keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, walk times, medications, playtime, bedtime routines, or simply giving them the comfort and companionship they’re used to, I always prioritize making pets feel secure and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m very attentive and detail-oriented when it comes to animal care, and your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priority. My goal is to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment where both pets and owners feel completely comfortable and at ease.

About: Hello, my name is Kelsey. My husband's name is Manny and together we have a doggy daycare and boarding facility as well as offering various drop in's/walks, house-sitting, etc. We're located outside of Forest City on an acreage. So, a little about me; I've been working with animals my entire life. I grew up attending the local 4H program which taught me various skills with all types of animals! From bathing horses and cattle, to performing the Heimlich maneuver on dogs and cats. I'm trained in CPR (animal and human). I've delivered cattle, puppies, and kittens, I can administer medications, and IVs, surgery aftercare, and repair minor wounds. I've done volunteer work with various agencies in the North Iowa area including all the local animal shelters, Harmony Ranch of Clear Lake (a non-profit organization servicing local clientele with equestrian therapies), and have personally made trips to both Oklahoma and Texas to rescue dogs from kill shelters. I've owned, fostered, studied, and trained dogs, cats, and horses of all sizes and breeds, from newborn to senior, from happy-go-lucky to scared and aggressive. We have 18 acres of land here that we've spent a lot of time and love cleaning up to create kind of a puppy (and human) paradise. We've carved out several walking paths both wooded and non, and about 10 of those acres are pasture where we take pups out on 40 & 50-foot leashes so they have lots of freedom while maintaining an extra level of safety. We also have shallow ponds for those pups who do like to dip their toes but can certainly avoid them for those who don't care for the water and we try to go for as many walks as possible with the pups while they're in our care. We have individual, cage-free, doggy suites inside our home if needed but we really try to stick to a more normal at-home environment where the dogs are out and about, with us, allowed on the furniture, have access to our big "toy boxes", and have freedom. Our entire downstairs family room is a puppy playroom with lots of toys, where they can all play together and we're in the process of turning our attached (heated and cooled) garage into another puppy playroom! We provide several daily walks, applicable socialization, and stimulating entertainment for your fur baby. Our goal is to keep every pet active with appropriate exercise, and mentally stimulating games/activities. Medications: We administer medications and medical treatments regularly. Just let us know what your needs are and we're happy to accommodate! My husband and I are both self-employed, remotely (work from home), which gives us the opportunity to be available almost 24/7. I make sure to update our calendar on Rover, regularly. While I do have dogs and a cat inside my house, they are all kept separate until we're able to give them slow, proper introductions. They're kept separate until they become familiar with one another, and there is immediate and direct supervision. Although your fur-baby may do alright without a leash at home, we leash every dog, every time we go outside, without exception. We have a play area, which is fenced in, but they're kept on a leash until secured within the fence. We have a security system, 24/7 fire, and carbon monoxide monitoring, along with security cameras in place to ensure all of our clients are kept safe at all times.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m patient, attentive, and believe in positive reinforcement and respecting each pet’s individual needs and boundaries. I’m also comfortable administering medications and adapting my care for pets with special needs or specific routines. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care that helps every pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home.🐾 I currently work from home, so I’m able to spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day. I’m available for boarding during both weekdays and weekends, and I can provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, attention, and lots of company. Your baby won’t be left alone for long periods and can easily become part of my daily routine. I share my home with Sky, my friendly dog, and Gigi, my cat, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I have a cedar garden where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air using a secure tether while supervised, and I live close to beautiful nature trails that are perfect for daily walks and exploring. I also have a separate, quiet space for pets who need a break, feel anxious, or simply prefer some alone time. I always respect each pet’s personality and boundaries and use patience and positive reinforcement to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home.
