Heidi was so wonderful to work with! She was great at communicating and while we were gone, our heater breaker flipped off and she quickly helped identify it and fix it. Our cat Pearl was well cared for while we were away and we would gladly book Heidi again!

We had Abby stop in 3x's a day for two days while we were out of town. It was refreshing to know that she would come in and spend time with him, take him for walks, make sure he had his medicine, food and water. I didn't even realize that there was a "check-in" and "check-out" along with how many pees/poos he had during the visit. It was nice to see how he was doing. Even though I knew that he had missed us based on some of his behaviors, it was nice to have a kind face there with him. She also was good to send pictures.

About: I’m the go-to petsitter in my friend group! I grew up on a farm with dozens of pets and I love getting to know new animals. I am open to caring for any critters and can’t wait to give your animal some one-on-one attention. I have a flexible full time job (M-F, 9-5) where I travel around the DSM area which allows me to stop in and check on pets whenever. I’m free on nights and weekends. I’m diligent when it comes to privacy and safety and believe in treating every animal and home with care. I think communication with owners is huge and I like to check in frequently.

Tyren watched my 1 year old chocolate lab while I was out of town for a week. Excellent communication with multiple pictures included after each visit. I usually get worried when I am away from my dog but Tyren exceeded my expectations and made sure that my dog Odin got walked, fed, and exercised. I definitely recommend Tyren and his services to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter.

Stacy took really good care of my cat, Lily while I was away! I always hate leaving my cat when I'm away, but it was good to know that someone was taking such good care of her! I got updates everyday and Stacy would stay even longer than I asked her to play with Lily and make sure Lily was happy =)

About: I have experience with puppies as well as elderly dogs, from the excitable to the scared. These incredible friends and family are very in tune with our energy, so make sure you’re bringing kind and loving people into their lives- and that’s me! It has been a pleasure and joy to meet so many wonderful animal friends and get to care for them! When I used to go parties, you could almost guarantee I’d be in the corner having found the furry or feathered family member, often hearing “they don’t usually like new people!”. I love to hang out with these friends- plenty of pets, toys, and walks- and lots of snuggles if they want them! I was also given the opportunity to help move a dog to the Middle East when the owner was nervous about moving and having to start immediately, so I was able to help with the transition with walks, food, comfort, and discovering a new country to help him feel safe and taken care of- and help his owner be at peace that he was being taken care of properly. I also have experience with dogs with arthritis and seizures. I am always honored to get to spend time with them! I am an artist with flexible schedule and always welcome a break to hang out with some awesome fur babies! I also share custody of my preschooler, so depending on the evening, I may have different options for time and I’m available every other weekend! I take being in peoples homes very seriously- I respect their space and make sure to follow instructions for the safety of the fur babies and myself! As someone in her late 30s, I have found that cleaning up as I go and using common sense and past experiences serve me well when no instructions are given for different situations.

About: Caring dog sitter - I have over 20 years of pet sitting experience and would love to take care of your pets while you are away!!! I live in Urbandale, have a fenced in backyard and live close to many walking and bike trails. I can watch your pets in my home or come take care of them in your home. I can take your pets on a walk for you, give their daily medication to them for you, feed them and provide waste clean-up! If there is anything else you would like, just ask! I have 2 small dogs of my own that are very friendly - love to be around others. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since I was 5 years old, so over 35 years!!!! Dogs are a very important part of my life and we have 2 miniature schnauzers of our own. Our schnauzers are part of our family and my children love them and take them to the park on their own. We wouldn't have a home without a dog again!! Meet my pets 2 miniature schnauzers About my yard Our backyard is fenced in, pretty open play area for dogs to run around 75ft. x 75ft. My experience training and administering medication I am comfortable training your dogs as well as administering medication. We had a schnauzer that required insulin shots twice a day a few years ago. I also have experience with allergy shots.

Heidi and her children take excellent care of my dog, Brick. I feel especially comfortable as I drive off for whatever occasion requires me to be away. I know that Brick loves staying with this wonderful family because as soon as I get him out of the car, he's racing to their front door practically pulling my are from it's socket.
