This is my second time with Vivian, and she's the best! Two of my cats can be very shy but she took the time to make them feel comfortable enough to come out of hiding. She's attentive and caring, and takes the most adorable photos of my boys. Would definitely recommend her service :)

Thank goodness for Tabatha! It’s so amazing to be able to get away & actually enjoy my vacation knowing that my sweet Maxwell is in such capable hands. Not only that, I unexpectedly received some live plants in the mail while away & she got them in some water so they’d be alive when I got home. She cleans up after Max (which I know can be a bit much some days), so that we come home to a clean house. She’s wonderful! I can’t recommend her enough.

About: Hi, I'm Jess — a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for the quirky, anxious, and cuddle-prone pets out there. Since moving to Des Moines in 2021 with my partner and our two rescue cats, Zelda and Juno, I’ve had the joy of fostering animals through Furry Friends Refuge and eventually adopting my “foster fail,” Theo — a resilient orange tabby who’s taught me more about patience, administering medication, and cooperative care than I ever imagined! What I do for you: I offer drop-ins, walks, and house sitting for dogs, cats, and most small animals (yes, even fish and reptiles). Whether your dog needs a midday adventure, your cat wants someone to chat with, or your lizard just needs the lights turned on at the right time — I’ve got it covered. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, house sitting, or dog walking, my focus is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I take your routine seriously, whether that means no dogs on the couch — or mandatory couch cuddles. You tell me what works for your pet, and I’ll stick to it. Why you'll like me: With years of experience across species and a deep respect for pet parent routines, my top priority is to keep your pets happy, safe, and stress-free. I treat them like family — and yes, I will send you photos that make your pet look like they’re modeling for a magazine. Let me know your rules, routines, and what makes your companion special — I’d love to meet them! ********** Since I’m new to Rover but not new to pet care, I’ve lowered my rates to help build reviews — let me know if you have any questions! I have a very open schedule and I thrive on chaos. I am also constantly updating my calender so you can trust my shown availability. Safety: I will treat your pet with the dignity, care, and enthusiasm that they deserve. I strive to provide a safe environment and a uniquely tailored experience. If you are a first time client, I will require you to answer a quick questionnaire to help me better understand the needs of you and your pet/s.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a freshmen in high school. Neighbors, coworkers, friends, family members, you name it! I love animals and spending time with them truly brings me so much joy I currently only work 3 days a week, so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your babies as needed. My weekly routine is pretty set in stone as of now. I have a fully fenced in yard and two very friendly and loving fur babies to keep your baby company. I also have a crate if needed for crate training.

About: Hello! my name is Ellie and I: -Grew up on a hobby farm and have been responsible for the care of cats, dogs, goats, chickens and other birds. -House sat for other families and have taken care of their dogs, cats and other animals. -I have a huge love for animals -I genuinely want to do my best in taking care of your pets<3 I am currently working on growing my small business as an artist from home so I have plenty of free time on my hands.

About: I have grown up with dogs ever since I was born. I love playing with them and loving them! I have a Doberman and a poodle/cavalier/yorkie mix! Pet care fits in anywhere. I am a senior in high school and have exceeded the credits needed to graduate so I am only at school for an hour in the morning every other day. I have plenty of time in the morning to help out and I currently have a job in town but am always free after 2 o’clock. I would love to help you out with any of your animals! I have a fenced in yard and love being outside with my dogs! And love playing with my cat! All cats and dogs and all animals deserve love to!
