Dog Walkers in Center Junction, IA

About: I am open to most pets. Cats, Dogs, Horses, Calves, Lambs, Guinea Pigs, Turtles, etc..... If extra special care or out of state, I do charge travel fees. I do have experience with older pets and young ones. I have been known to raise Opossums from the size of mice to adults. If that gives you an idea! I am open to new proposals and willing to negotiate new situations! (Unencountered situations when it comes to pets) I also House-sit, plants, pets etc... I do travel out of state to Illinois (Mostly the North suburbs of Chicago) and Wisconsin. This is where I have done house-sitting. Pets and Plants can be included in this care. I do add travel expenses, mainly for gas, when traveling for house sitting. I get up in the morning and get my coffee going and then tend to pets that are around. They get fed first thing, inside and outside. Feral cats seem to be present in the morning. Litter boxes are checked. Water Bowls. Mostly I go to people's homes and care for the pets at their houses, but I have had people bring them to me. I have an extra room set up in my barn if there are anxieties or stress with animals and they need a quiet place. I am in the process of updating that room a little more. It is heated for the winter months. I do have hand brushes and combs for extra attention and I do go talk to whoever is around. If dogs come, they can be walked. Although I live in a small town, I am close to nice places to walk on the edge of town.

About: I have cared for many pets since I was very young. I am experienced with even medically needy animals. Animals are my passion. Their love is unconditional and so is mine for them. I work a flexible schedule so I can work most anything work. Long trips, short trips, regular schedule. You name it I’ll make it work. Working in clients home is preferred over using my own home. Helping your pet to feel comfortable is my main priority and keeping their environment consistent will help that.

About: For years my daughter and I volunteered at a no-kill shelter fostering and adopting out dogs and cats. This gave me experience with several breeds. I work Tuesday through Friday from 8-5. My office is very close to the house and I am able to come home everyday for lunch. I have lots of time to spoil your pets! I live in a condo with a very large yard. Your pets will have the run of the house. I have one cat that rules the roost!

About: I have taken care of my brothers dog who is 8 years old (Rottweiler/Lab 70lbs) for almost three years now. And once in a while I watch over my sisters dog who is a 2 year old American bulldog. I’ve taught my my brothers Rottweiler how to stay, sit. He is a very needy dog but I’ve learned to be patient. I taught my sister puppy to sit, give me his paw and leave it. Doggies can be so energetic but that’s the fun part. I’m currently working overnights (10pm/6am). And my mornings/ evenings are pretty flexible. The only days I wouldn’t be able to be free is on Tuesdays evening. At my apartment building we have a fenced yard made for pets if needed. Otherwise my apartment is pet free and your pet is safe. I can also watch them at your place if needed.

“Oriana did an amazing job with my curious pups! She gave them plenty of time to find the perfect spot to do their business as well as sniff every other blade of grass in the vicinity. She gave them good love and their treat. I would not hesitate to use her again!”

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. I’ve also helped plenty of my friends with their dogs, especially my close relatives and their three Aussies in the past three years. I’ve helped with potty training them, as well as feeding, watering, walking, playing ball with them. I’ve also helped with two litters of puppies! I do not have a job currently so I have much free time to spend with dogs and cats! I like to volunteer on Wednesdays and occasionally have dance that night too, and Sundays I have church in the morning, so I’m very free. I am very adaptable, and willing to work with all sorts of dogs to make sure they’re happy and safe! I am a bit of a perfectionist and I will definitely make sure that the things you ask of me get done to your standard, as I want to make you and your pets happy!
