“I used to think that no other person could love my dog Oliver as much as I do... until I found Trish. She has been an absolute godsend to us and I could not be more grateful for her. It truly feels like I am dropping my dog off to spend the day with family in a home where he will be loved to no end. I wish I could give her 100 ⭐️'s and I HIGHLY recommend her for anybody in need of dog care!”



“Jason was able to accommodate a short notice stay without hesitation. I enjoyed and appreciated all of the “pupdates” and photos. Theo came home thoroughly exhausted, which is great! He was completely comfortable and loved playing with Timber and another puppy staying over. I recommend Jason and Samantha to any fur parent looking for quality care! We will be repeat clients!!!”

About: We have had 2 dogs for quite some time. Cody always had a pet in the home growing up and we have had our dogs since they were puppies (the oldest is 8 years old). We are willing to give any medicines and we brush our own dogs teeth at night, so we can do yours if you would like! Cody works from home, and Ashley is home most of the time so we will be willing to work with you and what your pup needs! We have a single family home with a fenced in yard and 2 fur babies ourselves to keep your pet company! We also have a doggy door to the backyard if your pup knows how to use it :) We do not crate our own dogs but are willing to crate your pup if that is the preference. We usually take our dogs on 4 walks per day, lasting about 30 minutes each walk plus free roam in the backyard.

“We highly recommend Danny if you’re looking for a reliable pet sitter! She frequently updated us throughout the day and made sure to send pictures of Bean often! We cannot thank her enough for taking such great care of our pup!”


“They were very accommodating to our schedule. It was extra special with the pictures she sent, we were able to see how happy and how much fun our puppy was having. If in the area, we would definitely reach out to her again. Thanks Emily!”


“They were great with my dog! He got to spend time outside and enjoyed playing with their dog. He came home tired and ready for a nap, so I’m sure he had a great day. Thank you so much Bobbie and family for taking care of my boy! I’ll definitely be back for doggy day care in the future.”


“This was my first time leaving my doggo with anyone from River and Ali was amazing! She was able to care for Benito, my Golden Retriever for a long day while I went to visit family just outside of town. She sent me updates regularly and Benito had a great time. She was super mindful of the cold weather and made sure Benito was safe from too extreme temperatures and still made sure to get some exercise and play time in. I appreciate Ali and know to reach out to her again when I need someone trustworthy to watch him for me whenever needed.”


“Natalie and her crew took great care of our boys. We felt so at ease leaving them with her for the day. Next time we are through coralville we be sure to book a stay for our boys in her home”


About: We have both taken care of animals for most of my life. I have always had cats and dogs as pets, and I have cared for many of my friends’ and families’ pets. I currently work full time but have the ability to work remote. Between my partner and I, there is almost always at least one person at our house at any given time. We have a fenced in yard and plenty of space for our dogs to run around. We take them for walks daily. We shower our pets with love and attention; they are rarely alone.

About: I treat every dog like my own and love creating routines that keep dogs happy, safe, and comfortable. Whether it’s sticking to their favorite walking route or making sure they get the right amount of play and rest, I pay close attention to each dog’s unique needs. I’m patient, dependable, and always focused on making your pup feel secure and loved while you're away. I'm currently working part-time on weekends at the hospital so I have plenty of time during the week to dedicate to pet care! I love spending time with animals, so this feels natural and rewarding. I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and stress free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, or medication needs—and I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of love and attention.

About: I've always been passionate about dogs and can hardly remember a time when I didn't have one of these amazing, loyal companions by my side. I've been dog sitting for friends and family members for the past five years, and I've enjoyed it so much that I've decided to branch out so I can meet even more fur friends. I also do dog training/owner coaching, and I believe it's never too late to teach a dog new tricks. I work part time, and most of my work is done at home, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with my fur friends. I have a huge back yard with a 6 ft privacy fence for ample room to run and play and even a doggie pool to splash around in to stay cool. My house is a couple blocks down from the trail for my fur friends who love to go for walks to get some of that extra energy out.

“Kasey was an absolute blessing to us! Our daughter was admitted to Iowa City Hospital and we were traveling with our 2 fur babies. We had no idea how we would be able to visit her, but Kasey made it possible! Her location to the hospital is absolutely perfect! Her love of animals is extremely evident when you visit her lovely home! Knowing she will be able to care for our dogs for future hospital visits with our daughter gives us such peace of mind! You will not be disappointed if you choose Her!”


“Our 1st day care was great! Melissa and Joseph were attentive and caring and sent fun pictures of her playing which was really nice for us to see! Look forward to having our girl stay with them again soon?”
