About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and have experience with dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently have a friendly Golden Retriever, so I’m familiar with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, giving medications when needed, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll provide dependable, compassionate care while keeping owners updated with photos and messages. Pet care is already part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention throughout the day. I’m committed to following each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a comfortable place to relax. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for

About: I’m a veterinary technician with emergency and critical care experience, and an Equissage-certified canine massage therapist. I notice things most pet sitters don’t. I understand that boarding can disrupt a dog’s nervous system. Some dogs do better at home while you’re away, and my massage therapy background means I have techniques that genuinely help calm and settle an anxious or overstimulated dog in their own environment. During drop-in visits and walks, I’m assessing your dog the whole time. Gait, energy, behavior, subtle signs that something’s off. You’ll hear about it either way. I’m experienced with medically complex dogs, seniors, and anxious dogs, and equally comfortable with your healthy, bouncy lab who just needs a solid walk. Cats are absolutely welcome. Cat owners, I see you. Your cat has a whole life, a whole routine, and very strong opinions. I get it. Fill me in on the Royal Treatment and I’ll do my best to make sure it happens. I look forward to meeting you and your animal friend(s) soon. 🐾 I offer drop-in visits and dog walks seven days a week. Visits are typically 30 minutes. I send updates with photos at every visit so you know exactly how things are going. I’m a veterinary technician with emergency and critical care experience. I know how to recognize when something is wrong and what to do about it. All dogs are kept leashed on walks unless we are in a securely fenced area. If your dog jumps fences, we do not go off leash outside. I do not combine your dog with unfamiliar dogs without prior owner approval. I come to you. Drop-in visits and walks take place in your home and neighborhood, which means your dog stays in a familiar environment with their own smells, sounds, and routine intact. I treat every client’s home with respect and leave it exactly as I found it. For drop-in visits that occur at dark or during nighttime hours, I may occasionally have another person with me. This is for my own safety.

“Katrina has been so kind and helpful already! Easy to get along with and flexible and just jumped right in to help a fellow single mom. Super grateful 🤎”

About: I provide personalized care, puppy training support, and gentle senior care, ensuring every dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable while maintaining routines and clear communication. I’m currently working part-time as a dog daycare attendant, and pet care fits naturally into my routine with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and reliable experience. I follow pets’ routines per the client for feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, and medications, keeping spaces clean and safe while providing care in the client’s home.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and haven't lived a single day without one! I’m equally experienced with both cats and dogs, ranging from energetic puppies and kittens to gentle seniors. I treat every pet in my care like part of my own family, so you can count on them being thoroughly spoiled and loved the entire time! My schedule is extremely flexible, allowing me to easily drop in, walk, and spend quality time with your pets throughout the day. I care for regular weekly pet clients Monday through Friday while keeping my weekends open, which gives me plenty of freedom to seamlessly weave your pet’s specific routine right into my day. I’m more than happy to offer constant care if your pet needs 24/7 supervision! Because this requires dedicated round-the-clock attention, higher rates do apply. Whether your pets prefer staying in their own comfortable environment or joining me at my house—where we have a great unfenced yard for leashed exploration—they’ll be in wonderful hands! I handle every part of their daily routine—including feeding, exercise, medication, and lots of individual affection. As a responsible pet owner, all of my own pets are fully up to date on vaccinations, wellness visits, and monthly preventatives. I always respect your home, follow your specific care instructions, and ensure your fur babies feel safe, loved, and pampered while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Allyson, a dedicated animal lover located on the SE side of Cedar Rapids. I offer reliable, loving dog walking and care with a flexible schedule to fit your pet’s needs. I have hands-on pet-sitting and walking experience with a variety of animals. I've cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, with breed experience ranging from Chihuahuas and Bulldogs to Shelties and German Shepherds. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience pet sitting and fostering bunnies and understand their unique care, routines, and gentle handling needs I grew up in a home where animals were family- helping care for cats, a Miniature Schnauzer, and a Golden Doodle. As an adult, I’ve rescued multiple kittens, cared for a Saint Bernard, fostered two bunnies, and I currently have two cats of my own. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, including rescue animals. After losing my own dogs, I’m not quite ready to adopt again—but I have plenty of love, patience, and attention to give to yours. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always follow your instructions closely. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I'm currently working part-time in the evenings, so I have a very flexible schedule in the morning and early afternoon. I also have weekend availability as needed! Your dog’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality, routines, and any special needs so every walk is calm, positive, and stress-free. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including leash preferences, feeding or medication needs, and behavioral cues. Dogs are always kept on leash unless otherwise agreed, and I stay alert to surroundings, traffic, and other animals to ensure safe, controlled walks.

I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and notes after each walk so you always know how your pup is doing.
