Pet Boarding in Cedar Rapids

“Anne is great! My dog is not the easiest to accommodate- very high strung and nervous. Anne gradually introduced my dog to the other dogs and sent me daily updates on how she was doing. Highly recommend!”

“They were great hosts and have a great setup for dogs. They were great at communicating and being flexible with travel plans. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them and trusted them completely. I'll definitely use again in the future.”

“We are first-time cat owners of a very skiddish cat, and we were really nervous about leaving her with a stranger, but Ashleigh was absolutely wonderful. She gave our cat her own room to make sure she didn't get overwhelemed by the new surroundings. Ashleigh also sent us daily updates with pictures and videos, and she even managed to get our cat to come out of hiding for pets and playing which is something no other sitter has been able to do. We will definitely be reaching out to Ashleigh first the next time we need someone to take care of our cat.”

“Erin took care Neo very well. Seems Neo was happy Neo had a great time with Erin and her two dogs.. He seems to be very happy during his stay. I thank Erin to look after Neo. Definitely I would use her again for sure.”

“Paul and his son did a 10 star job of watching my Rowdy, a Golden Retriever. Rowdy is over 10 years old in human years which makes him over 70 in dog years. In all that time, this is actually the first time I’ve ever boarded Rowdy. That alone tells you how protected he is-rarely is he out of my sight. I am so thankful that I chose Paul to watch over Rowdy. I hit a home run for sure! Paul was so thorough and heartfelt in his care of Rowdy, for he kept me in the loop, he touched base with me through the app consistently, and sent me pictures of Rowdy, at play and during movie time. I could not have been paired up with anybody more well equipped than Paul and his family. It touched my heart when Paul mentioned that he recently lost his pet companion of many years, and that this time with Rowdy helped fill the void and gave him that sense of companionship once again. Paul is the real deal and he went above and beyond in his caretaking of my best friend, and he did it with compassion and a whole lot of heart. One couldn’t ask for a more genuine caretaker for their pet! Thank you Paul for helping me in this situation, you are most appreciated!”

“Excellent care and attentive! Nicole very much loves pets and provided such good care for our cat in her lovely home while we were gone all week. We loved getting updates and photos! Stinger felt right at home there!”

About: I've taken care of pets since I was in college. I have experience in small pets, fish, reptiles, dogs and cats. I know how to administer medication including giving injections, and I can do basic grooming. I work full-time for as a professional driver but look after pets on my weekends since I tend to be a homebody! I'm also open to checking on pets during the week and doing the occasional walk. I have a fenced in yard that is suitable for small dogs and large dogs with plenty of space to run! My house is dog and cat proofed as well.

“Smitri and her family are just simply the best. Our pup loves them. We trust them. Every time we have chosen to keep our pup with Smirti has been great! Such good peace of mind.”

About: I started my journey working at a doggy care, interacting, playing with, care the dogs. For the last couple years, I have been at the animal shelter. I have experience in emergency medical care for both cats and dogs. Your pet will be safe with me, in every way. I can give you peace of mind. I work a 1st shift full time job currently. My routine and been built to accommodate my own pets needs, enrichement. It has been pretty easy to include other kids into this routine successfully. I deal with each animal in the unique way they need. I have one dog that is not kenneled, while my youngest is when she is going to be left alone for a couple hours. I have a wonderfully structured house that has allowed to me to keep dogs separate when needed and need constant supervision.

“Shannon and her family were so amazing with our pups! We got daily updates with pictures of them enjoying their time away from home. Definitely would recommend for anyone and will return the next time we someone to watch our pups!”

About: I love pets and I will take care of yours as if they’re my own! I have been around pets of all kinds my whole life; I can adapt my care to various needs because I know every pet is different! I was raised in a home with two cats and two dogs, so it was a small zoo! It was at a young age that I learned how to clean a litter box and how to clean up the dog waste in the yard, so nothing like that scares me off! I also have been taking care of others' pets since I was in elementary school! Primarily, my pet care experience has been with cats and dogs, but I have no trouble following instructions if you have a different kind of pet! I'd love the chance to love your pets! My current work hours fluctuate right now, but my current availability is: Mon-Thur as early as you need me until 3:45pm. I'm available after 9pm. Friday is entirely available Saturday I'm working 10am-2:30pm. Sunday is entirely available I always make sure to respect an animal’s space and boundaries until they clearly indicate they are comfortable with me. I never assume an animal is friendly until they show it!

About: I’ve had small pets (cats, hamsters, bunnies) most of my life. I always wanted a dog but my parents wouldn’t let me and when I was an adult my husband didn’t want a dog. Now that I don’t live with my parents and don’t have a husband, I have a dog! Best decision and friend I ever made. Luna and I try to stay on the move as much as possible while the weather is nice and when it’s not, we play games inside! I’m currently not working and all my time can be devoted to enjoying your pet in our home and on our sunny day adventures. We do attend dog parks and would like to have some friends join us on occasions! I have a fenced in yard and have seatbelts to hook up in my truck (harness not provided) for outings if chosen to participate. I take a lot of pictures of my Luna while we are on adventures and would love to take some of your pet to share with you as well!

About: I’ve been watching friends and family pets for about 15 years now. Enjoy playing with dogs and cats alike. Experience from 1 year old puppies to 10+ year old dogs. I am available most weekends along with Fridays and Mondays. I’m always running errands in the community and can provide drop in services at this time. :) I have a puppy that is 3 years old and loves making new friends. We would provide services in your home multiple times a day

“Nicole did an awesome job with Lainey! She sent pictures and videos to me daily while I was gone. Lainey was super happy in all of them.”

“Tori has been hands down AMAZING with our pups! We have a 6 year old springer spaniel and a 6 month old husky/German shepherd mix! They get along well with her dogs and they love the fenced yard and all the attention!”

William P.

“We had our pups stay with Kelsie for a week while we were out of town. Kelsie was awesome! She sent daily updates/pictures and was super accommodating for the pups needs. We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future. Thank you Kelsie!!”

About: I am passionate about giving my pets the love and care they deserve and require. Pets are a huge commitment and sometimes that means you need someone else to come in and help take care of them! I have four cats of my own, all varying ages and temperaments, that are so spoiled. I also have cared for dogs, but I am passionate about my feline friends! I work full time from 7am-5pm Monday through Thursday, so I’m a great option for a weekend sitter or evenings/overnights. I am willing to come early in the morning as well! I have a fenced in yard, as well as multiple rooms that I can keep your pet in with the door closed if you’d like them to be away from my cats. If I am in your home, I will respect your space and follow any boundaries you may set.

“Ruby had a great time with Alex!! He took her on walks and I can tell she felt really comfortable with him. We will definitely be back!”

Becca G.

About: I love all animals, and I'm willing to get my hands dirty (litterboxes are no match for me). I am very good at getting animals to take meds when needed, and I love just hanging out and keeping pets company so they don't feel lonely. I also have experience in taking care of animals with advanced grooming needs such as dailying brushing or bathing. I currently work Monday through Friday until 5 pm so I'm usually only open weekends unless it's just to pop by and make sure the animals are doing okay. Unless they are staying with me at my home in which wouldn't be a problem as I work from home. I have a large back yard for playing. I have an extra crate if needed. I take my own dog on daily walks. We like to go to the trail at the school next door.
