House Sitting in Cheatom Park, Des Moines, IA

“We booked Nadine last minute for a trip for our dog. She was great about sending updates and pictures while we were gone. Definitely would use again!”

“Allison was AWESOME!!! She took excellent care of our babies. Our house was clean and tidy when we returned home. She communicated often and asked great questions to make sure she was the right things for our babies. She was also very flexible as our leave and return times were not definite. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I live and work downtown (full-time remote). I can host your pet overnight in my home; stay overnight in your home if needed. Pop-in visits to provide breaks, walks, feeding. I can also provide day care services if needed. I do not have a crate but bringing your own crate is optional but not required. House broken/trained is preferred. I prefer to host 1 dog at a time. 2 dogs from the same household would be possible but prefer not to mix dogs from multiple households. ***House-sitting notice - I do have a 9mos old 11lb Havanese that would accompany me for overnight house-sitting assignments*** I work remote full-time Mon to Fri 8-5. Can do pop-in visits, walks and feeding as needed or on a set schedule that works best for your pet's current routine Condo here and unfortunately do not have a yard but there are lots of green spaces near my condo at 10th and Mulberry. Space is over 1200 sq ft so plenty of room for your pet. I do have a small (Havanese) 8mos old puppy that loves attention but is very smart and picks up on queues from other dogs. Shy and timid upon introduction and will play only if the other dog engages. Loves people and attention.

“Cory is awesome! Always communicates and is on time. One of the best dog sitters we have ever had! Thanks Cory we never worry when we leave Elvis with you!”

“Sandy was amazing! She was on time, was a great communicator sending updates and photos and took great care of our two small dogs. The dogs and house were well cared for.”

Michelle K.

“Madi was fantastic! Wrigley is a high energy dog and he got daily trips to the dog park and even a trip to the pet store. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos. The house was spotless when we got home and Wrigley seemed very happy! This was our first time with a sitter and we were pretty nervous since our dog has separation anxiety, however with Madi here I don’t think he even realized we were gone. We’re already adding Madi to the calendar for next time, and would recommend them again and again!!!”

About: I grew up with animals my whole life. My mom is an animal therapist so we always had at least 2 dogs and 2 cats at all times. 2 years ago me and my girlfriend decided to get a dog and since she works remote in Minneapolis we decided she would stay with my girlfriend most of the time. I just moved here a few weeks ago and I’m looking to replace some of the love I’m missing from my dog by taking care of someone else’s animals! I work 9-5 but I’m able to go back home during a lunch break for a potty and quick walk. Other than that I’m a very active person and would be willing to walk a dog miles and miles if that’s what it likes! I have an Australian cattle dog so she needs minimum 4 miles of walks a day! I live in an apartment, so don’t have the luxury of a fenced in yard but like I said I have no problem getting the exercise needs of an animal in!

“Aaliyah was so sweet and took great care of our dog! She regularly sent updates and photos, and left our home cleaner than it was when she got there. I cannot recommend her enough!!”

About: I’ve taken care of our family dogs since I could walk, including several Boston terriers, a sweet black lab, and a very lazy Bassett hound. I am experienced in senior care and medication administration as well. I now live with my two cats, Olive and Saltine. They are my literal children and I love them to death. I’m working full-time, but I’m available weekday mornings and evenings as well as full-time on weekends. Let me know what you need and I can try to make it happen! I strive to treat your pets home as if they’re my own. Every pet has their own unique needs. I’m attentive to detail and will follow your instructions to the letter.

“Travis was exceptionally quick to respond and very attentive to my three dogs. Two of my dogs can be hyper and he never once seemed put off by their behaviors. I got photo updates from him without having to ask and he was on time to get to my house before we left out of state. If we needed a sitter again, we’d definitely book with Travis.”

About: I am an experienced pet sitter with both personal and professional experience with animals of all species, temperaments, age, and health status. I have multiple years of experience in both emergency and general practice clinics and am thus confident in my ability to handle pets, distribute medication as needed, and recognize and respond to emergencies. Any animal in my care will be treated as my baby! ❤️ As a veterinary student, my schedule offers flexibility due to lunch breaks and large gaps between classes. I would love to share my daily study-break walks with your furry friend or spend the weekend with a study buddy while you’re away. I am unable to have a dog of my own right now and would be absolutely THRILLED to spend time with yours! My priority is always the animal’s safety and comfort. Whether that means showering your pet with lots of love or respecting their personal space, my goal is to provide your pet with a positive experience in my care.

“Gabby was exceptional! Jojo and I are sad she’s moving away, we’d love to have her back. ❤️”

“Rylee did an amazing job! She sent us plenty of photos and really made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with her!! She was so respectful to our house and our dog!! I would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!”
