House Sitting in Cedar Valley

“I contacted Bobbie with a semi-emergent request. She contacted me back right away and agreed to the request. I ended up not needing her housesitting services, but would not hesitate to reach out to her in the future. Thank you, Bobbie, for helping to put my mind at ease. Have a great day!”

“My dogs can be a reactive, especially when people come in the door. Skylynn remained calm and won them over quickly. She stayed in touch, sending frequent pictures. She left the house a clean as she found it. I would happily book her again.”

“Wonderful to have Sidney watch our Bella. She always kept informed with adorable pictures and highlights of her day. We definitely welcome her back to puppy sitting for us.”

About: I have had dogs since for my entire life, so I have cared for all ages of dogs from puppies to seniors. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, spending time cuddling with senior dogs, and playing with puppies! I am currently a full time student at the University of Iowa in Iowa City. I have a few hours during the weekdays for potty breaks and feeding, and I am available on the weekends. I am willing to pet sit overnight in your home on weeknights, as well as weekends. My apartment is not pet-friendly, so I am not allowed to bring your pets to me, but I will drive to your home to care for your pets there. I will ensure to keep your pets safe, active, and content while you are away.

About: I grew up with a fur baby, pet sitting and walking for my neighbors, and helped train my parents two new mini bernedoodles! 🐾 Pets have always had a special place in my heart and I love to show them love! I am a nurse that works three days a week, mostly consisting of nights and weekends! This allows me to have lots of availability during weekdays as well as some weekends! :) When caring for your pets, my priority is their safety, comfort, and happiness! I will follow your instructions carefully; such as feeding/walk schedules, medication needs, and favorite toys or activities! Please share anything special you would like me to know your pet and their typical routine 🤍🦮🐩

About: I have been the go-to neighborhood dog sitter ever since I was in junior high. Now I live in Iowa City with my husband and field retriever, Oakley, and am ready to continue opening my home to your pets! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels. I work from home, so I am here all day for your pet. My typical routine with Oakley includes a lunch time walk and a post work hike at Hickory Hill. I’d love to bring your pup along for these adventures but can also cater to your pups individual needs/preferences and adjust as needed! We have a fenced in yard as well for the pups to run around in. I work full time from home, so I am able to attend to your dog throughout the day as needed. I typically play fetch or tug or something or the sort with my pup in the morning, take her for a walk ~1 mi walk over lunch, and for a 1-2 hour hike after work. I can adjust the level of activity as needed to match what you’re looking for! I have a fenced in yard (standard chain link so not suited for high jumpers) and an active pup for your dog to play with! I am comfortable crating your dog or leaving free roaming, whatever is your preference and your routine!

About: I grew up on a farm and have been loving pets for years! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, parakeets, snakes, ducks, and chickens. I am easy going and flexible. I’m an educator, so my summer is free to take care of your pet! I have a vehicle, as well as a mini golden doodle who loves to play with other dogs. I am able to come to your home with my car, and I love going on walks anywhere. I play with cats and dogs with toys, and I make sure to talk to them and give them snuggles.

About: I have owned many dogs in my life time. I can deal with dogs who don’t do well on a leash as well as senior dogs. I am located in Iowa City I am starting a new job in the beginning of July so in the meantime I’m free every day for drop in visits or boarding. Once my job starts I will only be free Friday-Sunday I live in a safe apartment complex with a pad lock on the front door so your pet will be safe. Experience with many types of dogs.

“Thank you for helping :-). I appreciate your communication with me and great care for my animals!”

“Theresa was phenomenal! She took such good care of our dogs. She sent regular updates and was so attentive to their habits. It gave us such peace of mind to see how much fun our dogs were having while we were out of town. I’d recommend Theresa to everyone!”

About: I have my own dog at home who I have grown up with. I have also grown up taking care of neighborhood dogs and my uncles dogs who I have taken care of since they were puppies. I have also taken care of many of my neighbors cats and other various pets. I am currently a full time student technically but I have a lot of open times that I would love to come hang out with some pets who just need some extra loving or taking care of. This also helps me have a break from life and focus on just spending quality time with some pets who are fun to be around. I always put the pet first. I make sure I remember times I went over or left and how long I have stayed at a residence so they have enough time outside of kennels or for play time. I want the pets to feel like they can be calm and chill or be crazy and I’ll play with them or walk them when they just need some energy out.

About: I have much enthusiasm for helping people and pets out, am experienced in babysitting, and work well when under pressure and memorize instructions very quickly! Recently graduated from undergrad, I’m currently a part time student at another university (fully online, only one class) so I have virtually all the free time these days ! I give my full attention to the pets, and I have a secure home with various ways for them to enjoy spending their time either playing or simply resting.

About: My name is Grant . I’ve had German shepherds my whole life. I grew up with three of them at all times throughout my life. This made me passionate about taking caring for others dogs in addition to my own. I walk my dogs once a day so I have experience caring for dogs and will treat them as my own. I will take care of your dogs by taking them on long walks or any other requests you ask for. I’m able to give your dog all the attention needed. I have a part time job and go to school for anthropology. I am available mostly during the evenings because I go to school during the day. I offer a lot of services for your pet like pet sitting, long or short walks, and throwing a tennis ball. I’m happy to hear any of your requests. I have a small fence in my yard. In my yard I throw the ball for my dogs. I feed my dogs twice a day but I would accommodate on how your feeding schedule works. If you any specific requests on how I should care for your pet definitely let me know.

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I grew up on a farm with all sorts of animals! I am committed to making sure each pet has a great time. I am currently a college student so I have a lot of downtime to care for your pet. I have gaps in my days to commit to this. I will be a helping hand while watching your pets. I will make sure to follow whatever instructions are given and to respect the home I am in.

“Shelly is Awesome! You couldn’t ask for a more reliable and attentive caregiver! I highly recommend her. She cared for my two kitties, both are very old and fragile and I felt confident that they were well cared for!”
