About: I’ve been around animals since I was a little kid. Grew up showing horses and cattle. I currently have Scottish highland cows, 2 dogs, and 3 cats. I’ve pet sat for family, friends, neighbors, and now Rover clients. I love animals more than people most days. :) Being around any kind of animal is my happy place. When in college, I worked for Apple Creek Kennel in Marion, IA. I’m very approachable and easy to talk to. I will treat your pet as if it were my own. I will work with you if price or schedule doesn’t line up. I work from home MOST days. If I’m not home, I’m usually not too far away. I make my own schedule so I’m able to be somewhat flexible. I’m a crop insurance adjuster full time and usually the busiest times of the year for me are around planting (May-June) and harvest (Sept-Dec). Please be mindful about how far apart we live. If we do live 20+ miles apart and you need me to care for your pet 4 times a day, that’s a minimum of 2 1/2 hours of driving time and gas for that day, on top of my full time job. I do my best not to over-commit myself and I am very upfront and honest about my schedule for the time frames requested. My full time job takes priority but I will always do my best to accommodate you and your pet(s) if my schedule allows. 🥰 I have a 5ft fenced yard. I will care for your animals specifically as I’m told and will do what is safest and most secure for your animal.

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was a little girl, up until he passed away at 14, so I’ve learned a lot about dogs.

About: Well to start off, my name is Caitlin and I've grown up with animals in my household all my life. I tend to make a very quick and deep connection with animals and I've volunteered for the Cedar Rapids Care and Control shelter. Tasks of volunteering were to walk the dogs, play with the dogs, and show the dogs to people who were thinking of adopting. I currently have 4 dogs and a cat and all of the animals I have owned were rescue animals. My promise to you is that I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own. People always say a dog is a mans best friend, but I say animals in general are more then that. They are family and every animal deserves to be loved on and taken care of.

Jennifer T.
“Hello, my name is Eufraisa Tecuapetla. My sister Jennifer has helped me over the last three years in taking care of my boy Chapo. Chapo is a Rottweiler mixed with Lab and he can be a handful. But Jennifer has done a great job in keeping me stress free by making sure he is well fed, well groomed, safe and loved. She is a very generous and life saver, there was a couple of times where I had to come him extremely late from work but she kept Chapo in her home safe until I could be with him. Another time would be when my dog had a terrible ear infection and she took the time to take him to the vet and made sure he could get better. I would highly recommend her with taking care of your little fur baby! Thanks!”
