“Im very happy with the care Joey received during his stay, Brooke gave Joey amazing care! I highly recommend Brooke and Brent. I’m so thankful to find someone I can trust. I will use them again!”
“Such a wonderful and competent sitter. Jen and her family are the most heartwarming people and they go out of their way to care for your baby. You will not find a better sitter where your baby is treated as one of the family when you have to be gone! Ever! How lucky are we to have people like Jenevieve in this world?! So grateful. She acted like we were gifting her by leaving our crazy cat that we have had for a month with her. Carrie is the happiest and best version of herself I have ever seen after Jen’s care!”
“Jessica was great with our dog Louie, loved the pics and vids during his stay. Booking and communication was easy and efficient. Highly Recommended, and many Thanks!”
“Steve and Tilaine were the best host to our rescue pup. Steve sent us pupdates and pics. and lila was the best/ chillest doggie companion for our buddy. We felt like our dog was made a part of there family. Im so excited our pup has a family to stay with next time we’re in Ames!”
“Amazing!! Samantha took great care of my dog and was always interested in learning more ways she could show him love while boarding him! Even though my dog tends to be shy and have a hard time warming up around new people, he LOVED spending time with her and her dogs. Every picture and video she sent was filled with lots of tail wags and smiles. Definitely would book with her 100 more times.”
“My baby boy had a fantastic overnight with Bailee and her fur babies. It's so important that I know Tootie is comfortable and loved in my absence. I watched as Tootie entered the home. He walked around, sniffing. I saw that Tootie was comfortable. Bailee sent pictures and many comical comments. She brought many smiles to my face. Thank you Bailee for loving Tootie.”
“I was very happy with the updates and pictures about my dog Stanley during his stay. I felt like he was being well loved and looked after. I loved knowing that he was able to be outside and walk around and enjoy the yard, and not spending most of his time in a crate like other boarding places. Will definitely be back! Already requested his next stay.”
“We loved Madison!! Our bloodbound Belle is the sweetest dog but with her size can be a handful..Madison was wonderful with her.....and her dog and our dog Belle became fast friends. I would definitely reccomend her!!!”
“Hades had a wonderful time with Nicole and her pup! We felt confident that he’d be in good hands leaving him there for the weekend. She sent updates frequently and he looked happy and content in all the photos. We’d love to have her watch Hades again anytime!”
“Nicole (and her family) took the best care of Margot while our family was at Disney. She communicated and organized a meet up with plenty of time in advance and made sure I was comfortable. She answered the many questions I had and it was obvious how much she loved having dogs in her home. From the minute Margot was in her care, I received pictures and videos. Her entire family loved on Margot and even with an unexpected health issue during Margot’s stay, I never doubted she was being loved. Can’t wait to have Margot stay with them again!”
About: I know how energetic dogs are, and I am as well so we’re a perfect match! I can keep them entertained while they are also making my day so much brighter! I am a full time student but classes do not take up much of my day! I love to go on long walks and I can entertain any dog for hours. I can do late afternoons and mornings, as well as nights if need be. I have 2 dogs at home, but here at college I do not have any pets. My apartment does allow pets so it would be no problem to have them over:) I also have the option of a fenced in yard if your little pup prefers to run around freely.
“Nicole was a great sitter. Rowen was happy and well taken care of. This is the first time she had been left for this long with a sitter who wasn’t a close friend and we were anxious. Nicole put our minds at ease, sent pictures and updates. She answered all of my nervous Nelly questions. We will definitely be calling on her again.”
“This is Coco’s 3rd stay with Amy & Casey. She loves going there and comes home exhausted from a full stay of play, walks, and even a pool party once 😁. She loves their dog Duke! We highly recommend Amy & Casey and look forward to Cocoa next stay!”
“Thanks Jacquelyn and little girls for taking good care of Sultan. He found a great family to stay with when parents are out:😊. Pets stay free and friendly environment. I will definitely recommend her for pet sitting service.”
“Samantha and her husband Raheem took such good care of my baby. He can be quite anxious and high energy and they made sure he got plenty of exercise and attention. She had great communication throughout the stay and sent plenty of adorable photo updates. My boy is not the easiest dog to watch, and they were amazing!!! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter. They treat your pup like their own!”
