“Raquel was very loving, professional and through taking care of my cat and dog. The pictures were adorable and she took very good care of them. Would highly recommend her for cats and dogs.”
“Our cat is timid and slow to warm up to new people but she warmed up to Nicky almost immediately, which says a lot! Daily communication and photos helped give us peace of mind while traveling knowing that our fur baby is in good care back home. Thank you so much, Nicky! We appreciate your help!”
“Loved having Rylee take care of our 2 cats while we were on vacation. Met her via app for first time. Did a short home visit. She came by 4 times in 10 days. She helped with a couple of extra house stuff too (water flowers, get mail) so it was exactly what we needed! She was friendly, professional, quick to respond, and sent us pictures. Would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, as well as a bunny. My friends and family members rely on me to take care of their animals and give them lots of love! I am experienced with any sized animal with any level of training!! I’m here to ensure your animal(s) is happy and healthy! I am available all weekend to hangout with your animal! I have two-three classes a day during the weekdays. However, they are spread out to where I can feed/relieve/walk a pet in between classes. I am early riser who normally wakes up around 6:30am and am happy to spend the whole morning playing with a furry friend! I have a very friendly cat, named Luna, who love to play with other animals. I have two big crates and a play pen for puppies. Feeding, playing, and cleaning up after animals is something I do on a daily basis! I regularly visit home to watch my bulldog and my brother’s lab!
“Communicative, and our cat was cared for!”
“Sarah was amazing! She truly knows the behavior of dogs and understands their body language. She was attentive to both of my dogs' needs when dropping in over a long weekend and gave frequent updates and photos! Couldn't have a better person caring for your pets!!!”
“Very friendly and easy to work with!”
“Thank you so much! Really appreciate making time to watch JG and especially so last minute! It made me so happy and laugh to see all the pictures and little updates.”
About: I have owned dogs since I was born. I have taken care of energetic crazy ones that have big bursts of energy in some that just like to lay around I like to walk dogs, hang out with them and get to know their personalities. I’m going to be a senior at the University of Iowa I have a part-time job. I have a pretty flexible schedule besides my class times. I’m free almost every afternoon and early in the morning. At home, I like to make sure my pets always have water since dehydration is very common in pets. I like to make sure they have plenty of toys to exercise their mind and I like to give them a treat once in a while when they’re being nice or sweet.
About: I’ve had at least two dogs since I was born, from big to small, old to puppies, hyper to aloof, I’ve had experience with all of it. Currently I have a puppy who I got at a couple months old, a seven year old lab, and a 14 year old husky who I’ve had since she was 1. I have experience taking care of senior dogs and being patient with them, but also with keeping up with the energy of puppies, especially a husky puppy. I can manage multiple pets at once and love taking them on long walks or playing in the yard. Currently, I work part time at a daycare so I’m comfortable in high energy and high stress situations. I’m well prepared to take care of any dog and with my love for all pets I could ensure a safe and fun environment. I work part time at a daycare, 8am-5:30pm at least 3 days a week. My weekends are very free since I never work in the weekends, and I can take care of pets before and after work, or very briefly during my lunch break. When I’m out of town I’ll let clients know in advance. But besides work, my schedule is very flexible. I won’t be able to have pets over at my home but at a clients home I can ensure I always keep an eye on them. I can take them for long or short walks depending on what’s needed for that pet, and I can play with them in the yard or in the home. I’m also comfortable clean up after them and administering some medication.
About: I bring almost three years of experience from working at a dog training, daycare, and boarding facility. During this time, I gained valuable insights into various dog behaviors and care techniques. Most importantly, it deepened my already strong bond and love for dogs! I’m currently a full-time college student at the University of Iowa with a structured class schedule and plenty of open weekends. My flexible routine allows me to provide pet care on weekends and during my shorter class days. I have three dogs at home, ranging from a Pug to two Great Danes, so I’m comfortable working with dogs of all sizes. Whether it’s one pup or a pack, I can handle it all! At home, our favorite activities include walking, playing, and plenty of cuddle time.
“Renee was able to accommodate a last-minute drop-in. The dogs seemed very comfortable with her and got lots of snuggles and attention. We are looking forward to having her watch them for an extended time in a couple of months.”
“Meredith did an outstanding job minding our two cats and she was more than willing to assist with getting mail, light watering of plants/garden, and emptying our dehumidifier while we were on vacation for almost two weeks. Communication (and pictures!) were excellent and I really never worried whether our animals and home were in good hands while we were away. I would not hesitate to use her again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 20. Family and friends have relied on me to feed and take care of their pets. I have 2 dogs, which one is still a puppy. I can dispense medicine if needed. I have a large backyard. I prefer to do a meet & greet to make sure everyone gets along. I have lots of time to spend with my dogs, taking them on walking and playing with them, giving them lots of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals. I have a fenced in yard. I have 2 fur dogs as well to keep your dogs company. I also can crate your dog as well.
“Oscar took great care of our two cats & went above and beyond to visit and play with them!”
“Aastha sent such great pictures of my Rainie! I could tell he enjoyed her visit. Will book again, highly recommend!”
“Sarah sent me pictures of my cat every day! She was even kind enough to move our delivered packages inside our house! I highly recommend her!”
“Lily is very dependable & does a great job with my two dogs! It’s so helpful to have someone to let them out while I’m at work & they both look so happy in the pictures she sends.”
“Danny was amazing with our 4 year old reactive Aussie. She listened to all of our instructions during our meeting and made sure that not only we were comfortable but our pup was too. We got tons of pictures and a message after each visit. She was flexible and worked with our last minute needs.”
“When Sky arrived, she had such positive energy. Chesna immediately jumped up in her lap and laid down. Sky was so intuitive to Chesna's mood and body language, which is exactly what I was looking for. I will definitely be hiring her again.”

Cecelia F.
“Cecelia is by far our best dog sitter. She treats our english bulldog like her own fur baby—spoiling him with attention, care, and plenty of playtime. While we’re away, we can enjoy our time because we know our pup is well cared for! He is overjoyed every time he sees Cecelia and hates to see her leave. Highly recommend Cecelia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind-hearted pet sitter.”

Ava G.
“Ava stayed with or 2 dogs over thanksgiving weekend allowing us to sneak away last minute. We have a new amputee in our house and as a crazy, helicopter dog mom, I was very nervous leaving our babies for the first time after surgery. Ava was so wonderful with them, sending photos regularly reassuring me that my babies were in good hands. She also left our home in great shape, possibly even better than how we left it. We are so grateful to have found such a responsible and loving caregiver for our fur babies.”

Lori is patient with reactive/fearful dogs and lets them get to know her on their terms. She is kind and gentile with all animals. I can't recommend Lori enough”
