I have booked with Jessica a few times now and recommend her to anyone looking for top notch care for their pet. This most recent time I did not realize that my pup had a broken nail before dropping her off and Jessica saw it right away, took her to the vet, and went above and beyond to care for her during her week long stay. Also, my flight back to Des Moines was extremely delayed and Jessica was super accommodating and understanding. Jessica is incredibly responsive and I trust her completely with my dog Iommi. Whether you need a daycare stay or extended stay, Jessica is the person to book with. Thank you so much again Jessica!

I cannot recommend Lucia enough for the amazing care she provided for my dog, Haymish. From the moment they met, it was clear that she had a natural connection with animals. She was incredibly attentive, patient and loving , making sure Haymish was comfortable and well cared for at all times. Lucia kept me up to date with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. When I picked him up, he was so excited and he looked great! I am so grateful for Lucia and her kindness and dedication. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after your fur baby, Lucia is the perfect choice. 😊

About: I have spent my entire life around animals, especially larger, older dogs. I am home full time while classes are online and am very flexible with sitting times. I am currently taking classes online for the summer, so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends! I tend to be busier on the weekends but if you give enough time in advance I am pretty flexible. I live in an apartment complex, and don't have a yard, so animals will have to be leashed when outside. I do not have a lot of space, so smaller animals are preferred, especially for longer stays.

Butter had a great time playing with Ashly’s dog and definitely needed a bath from all the fun after we picked her up! Would definitely use Ashly’s services again. Thank you so much!

We were worried about leaving our dog for 5 days with someone we didn't know and he hadn't stayed with before. That worry wasn't needed. Patty knew I was worried and was wonderful! We got pictures, videos, and comments about how the days were going twice a day. Patty loves and is knowledgeable about dogs and the wonderful care they get shows that. Our guy was obviously fond of Patty and we will definitely book with her again.
