Dog Boarding in Capitol View South, Des Moines, IA

“Alice was amazing! I was so nervous about leaving my dog with someone I did not know but she put me at ease as soon as we met. It was readily apparent that she has a lot of experience with dogs, and the safety and well-being of those in her care is her primary concern. She sent daily photos, videos and updates while I was gone. And it was obvious that Lucky enjoyed himself while he was there. Alice is a kind-hearted and responsible caregiver. She is at the top of my call list for future needs. Thanks Alice!”

“Jenevieve was amazing! She accepted my request last minute when my other dog sitter fell through. She sent so many photos and updates throughout the weekend which made me feel so good about leaving Dolly for the weekend. Dolly also came back freshly bathed and with a little surprise in her kennel ❤️🥲”

“This was my first time leaving my dog for daycare with Jaden. He is very aware of the needs of the dogs, and my dog didn’t show any anxiety issues during his stay. I’m very pleased and would recommend him to others.”

“Oh my gosh!! This was Freyja’s first time ever boarding and she literally found her home away from home. Cory and his spouse were amazing and loved Freyja as their own. I will always have Cory watch my fur babies and so should you!!”

“My Lola had a blast staying with Lisa! She sent many pictures and updates during her stay and was very responsive. Plenty of toys and comfy places for a pup to enjoy in the household and a safe fenced in yard. Would definitely recommend!”

“Super nice, great communication! Received pictures&/or videos every day. Coco really seemed to enjoy herself and came back happy and freshly bathed! Thank you!”

“This family took such well care of our boys while away! The updates and photos were so great! There was an incident that occurred and we were given all the details, updates, and even offered support from them! Will definitely choose them again!”

“Kevin was incredibly responsive in scheduling a somewhat last-minute booking, shared photos of Monte throughout his stay and provided consistent updates, and treated Monte like his own. Will absolutrly be using Kevin again and would highly recommend him.”

“Madison is the best!! She took such good care of my dog and always takes tons of pictures and videos. So thankful for her and her dogs to keep my own pup company for the weekend!”

“Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!”

“Cory did great with our pups! We were gone for 10 days so we were a little worried but the dogs did great with Cory. They got a lot of walks in and when we picked them up they were as happy as can be! Would definitely rebook with Cory.”

“I can't say enough great things about Charlie. His communication was incredible! Our dog can be anxious and Charlie handled a situation wonderfully. He sent videos/pictures, updates, and assured us all was well. I would definitely go back to Charlie and would be thrilled for our dogs to be watched by him.”

“Our dog Bella was so content and happy and got along well with her dogs. Sarah was great in all areas and sent us updates and photos. Will definitely use her again.”

“Katie loves animals! She takes great care of dogs, and loves to play and walk them! She has my full trust with my dog Billy.”

“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.”

“I have booked with Jessica a few times now and recommend her to anyone looking for top notch care for their pet. This most recent time I did not realize that my pup had a broken nail before dropping her off and Jessica saw it right away, took her to the vet, and went above and beyond to care for her during her week long stay. Also, my flight back to Des Moines was extremely delayed and Jessica was super accommodating and understanding. Jessica is incredibly responsive and I trust her completely with my dog Iommi. Whether you need a daycare stay or extended stay, Jessica is the person to book with. Thank you so much again Jessica!”

“Couldn't have been better. Evan was super accommodating with our last minute travel plans and answered all questions and texts back very quickly and professionally. He even texted us photos so we could see she was happy and having fun. Will definitely use again.”

“Justin was great! I left my 2 corgis with him for the week. Both my dogs have very different personalities and each one had their needs met. This meant Maple felt like she was at summer camp and played with his dog, chased toys, and had a blast. My shy boy, Milo got his own space where he felt safe made for him, and started warming up over the last few days. The best part was all the great photo updates daily. I 10/10 recommend Justin!”

“She is amazing! Got pictures and videos while on vacation. She actually cares about animals. Will definitely use her again and highly highly highly recommend using her!!!”

“After reading several stellar reviews, I decided to contact Maggie to schedule time for her to kitty-sit my cat, Pebbles. I wasn't quite sure of the time frame to reserve because I didn't know when exactly I would be returning home. Maggie assured me it would be no problem if I needed an extra day. I did, in fact, request an additional day because when I returned home, I was too tired to drive across town to pick up my cat. Maggie said it was fine which I really appreciated! Before I brought Pebbles to Maggie's, I informed her that I wasn't sure how well she would interact with other animals because there are no other pets in my home. Maggie said not to worry and that she has space to separate pets if needed. As anticipated, the next day, Maggie texted to inform me that Pebbles was a bit stressed and did not appreciate the other animals. She kept Pebbles away from the other pets to keep everyone safe and comfortable. Maggie was very good about texting updates and pictures of Pebbles throughout my trip. This was definately peace of mind for me. I have never used a pet sitter before. While on trips, I have either taken my pets to the vet, family, or friends have come to my house to care for them. I was very pleased with Maggie taking care of Pebbles and will definately use her again in the future! I highly recommend Maggie to take care of your pet(s)!”
