House Sitting in Capitol View South, Des Moines, IA

“Great communication and daily photos/videos. This was our first time leaving our dog, so she didn't eat for the first day we were gone. We collaborated on some problem solving, and she decided she could eat again with the help of some peanut butter. House was well cared for, as well.”

“Sarah did a wonderful job watching Sandy. She exceeded expectation by doing more than we asked of her. Sandy was happy and healthy when we got home. Highly recommend.”

“Great job by Yasmin. Cyrus the dog got to run in the yard and play tug, and Frank the cat was safely fed in the privacy of his bedroom. Well done and we appreciate Yasmin's pet care.”

“Cory was awesome. I will definitely book with him again. He was on time and kept in contact with me throughout the house sitting process. I had a bad experience with Rover before and he has certainly renewed my faith about the program. Thanks again Cory!!”

“Victoria went above and beyond for our girls! She kept the schedule she indicated, followed all of our (many) instructions and kept us informed of medical emergencies when needed. I would recommend her for any pet sitting!!”

“Brenda was the perfect sitter for our two dogs. She followed our instructions well and spent a lot of time engaging with them. She took great care of the house, and it was probably cleaner when she left than it was when she arrived. We can’t wait to use her again!”

“This was my first time with Molly watching the boys. She was awesome! She sent so many pictures and videos which was great, I could tell that they were comfortable with her. She even let them sleep with her and hog the bed! I had several issues with my flights and she was more than willing to be on standby if I didn’t make it home on time. I’ll definitely use Molly again in the future 🌟”

“Jessica is amazing! She communicates with us regularly while on the job and keeps us at ease that our dog is in excellent hands. And our dog loves her!”

“Allison stayed with Maisie for four days in my home and it was an excellent experience. She provided daily updates and photos. Maisie was a happy girl! And my condo was in perfect order when I returned. Probably better than the way I left it. I will definitely ask Allison to come and stay with Maisie again. I have complete confidence and trust in her.”

“Highly recommend!! Andrea has stayed are our house two times for long weekends and watched our 14 year old Pitbull who can't go to dog parks or really be around other dogs. She gave him his medication which is about 8 pills and tried different things to get him to eat. She stayed in constant contact with me and left our house spotless. We already scheduled her for another weekend in August.”

“Madi was an absolute dream! They provided incredible peace of mind while house sitting and (most importantly) our cat LOVED them! Madi provided regular updates with photos and videos. They had daily playtime with our cat, and even came up with extra enrichment activities! They also made sure to have snuggle time, which was so important for our cat. Madi instantly connected with our cat, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience! I would recommend Madi to anyone with pets in a heartbeat!”

“Summer did an amazing job. This was our first experience with in-home care and it was really reassuring to know that Bama was getting good care. She noticed if there were any issues, worked with me when things came up, and, most importantly gave her love and attention when we weren't there. Her vet tech training gave me peace of mind since Bama is an older dog. She sent pics and videos, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use Summer again if the need arose. Thanks, Summer!”

“Nathan did a great job with our two cats over the long weekend despite it being pretty last minute from us! Tried his best to win them over but they're a fickle crew. Would happily ask him again for future cat visits.”

“Noah is great! Quick response, on-time, and well mannered. He housesat and watched our two dogs. They seemed to love him. One of dogs is epileptic and gets medications several times a day…Noah was on it. We were very happy with his care.”

“Aurora was great with Lola! I would definitely use her again! I felt that Lola was in very knowledgeable hands!!”

“I was very pleased with the loving care Jovan gave my dog. She gave me updates, and my dog was very happy when I returned home. Jovan also took excellent care of my home. I appreciate all she did.”

“Travis was exceptionally quick to respond and very attentive to my three dogs. Two of my dogs can be hyper and he never once seemed put off by their behaviors. I got photo updates from him without having to ask and he was on time to get to my house before we left out of state. If we needed a sitter again, we’d definitely book with Travis.”

“Tanya took great care of my pride and joy Madi! I’ll for sure be using Tanya again in the future if she’s available! Highly recommended, she gives amazing care and is very respectful of your home!”

“Ali was amazing with both of my pets. She provided pictures of both and updates. Will absolutely have her back again!!”

About: Hi, I’m Jane! I’ve been professionally caring for dogs since 2015, and I make it a priority to learn about each pet before we meet. This includes researching breed-specific needs and understanding any medical conditions to ensure I provide the best possible care. Your dog will enjoy plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and attention in my care. For both dogs and cats, I strive to stick as closely as possible to your routine, while adding a little extra love and exercise to help ease their anxiety while you’re away. I offer a base rate for the first pet, with a small additional fee for each extra pet. If you have both dogs and cats, the base rate applies only once per household. Pricing Example: 1 dog, 2 cats: $19 + $4 + $4 = $27 (Note: Fees will be updated prior to booking. Pets must be from the same household.) I look forward to scheduling a meet-and-greet so I can learn more about your fur babies! I work from home so weekdays are an all-day puppy party for me 🙂. I can be flexible for scheduled drop-ins. The dogs I care for enjoy frequent breaks to play, walk, or relax in near my lap while I work on my laptop. My policy is to never let a dog out of my sight, even in a fenced yard. Pets can often behave unpredictably when separated from their owners. I focus on keeping them engaged through exercise and play tasks, providing plenty of distractions until your return. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities.
