Dog Sitting in Coralville

“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: to be blunt: I love animals. I treat them like kids, they need attention and love. I'll make sure your pet feels cared about while you're away! I'm currently only volunteering and working on coding in my free time so i'm very flexible and available! I build my schedule around the animals I am caring for, whether that's ensuring I have time for midday play breaks, afternoon walks, or late night cuddling time, I will make sure to communicate that I am able to be there and show up for your pet. I take a calm, safety-first approach in every single home I enter. I like to follow routines, and I will follow yours to a T. I always ensure that doors and gates are closed and secured, and I always check in to see if anything seems off. In my home, pets get a quiet, low-stress environment with lots of supervision.

About: I work remote and travel 90% of the year. I frequently visit and house sit in the following areas: Spartanburg, SC, Des Moines, IA or Iowa City, IA, Denver, CO & Bend, OR where I havr family and friends I visit. Along with raising 3 children, (1 in college still) I have had dogs, rabbits, fish, cats, lizards, birds & hermit crabs. The kids are gone now and my own pup passed away in 2016 at the age of 13, so I am looking to play with other people's pets in my free time. I am out traveling the country in my SUV working as a Digital nomad for a tech company. I love going for long walks and being outdoors, so this will allow me to get exercise with the company of your furry friend. No one likes to be alone, even our pets, so providing them companionionship and exercise while you are unavailable will provide me with great joy. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies and providing the assistance you need. Have a wonderful day and thank you for checking out my profile! I work M-F, 8-5 EDT for a tech company, so I will be home all day with your fur babies. Evenings and weekends I enjoy hiking, kayaking, SUP & photography. I will stay in your home, days and nights, with your pets so they don't have to relocate anywhwre while you are away on vacation.

About: I have taken care of animals for the past 16 years. I have cared for my own family dogs and cat since I was 10. I now have my own cat for the past 3 years. Before I adopted my one cat I have had multiple roommates over the past 6 years with dogs and cats of their own that I have helped care for every day. I frequently pet-sit for my friends and their families when they are out of town. I can handle any pet personality from high energy to anxious or shy. I am gentle and cautious making sure your animal is always comfortable in my company. I do work in patient care, so while my patients are humans, all of my friends, family and coworkers would agree that I provide quality care for all living beings. I just graduated and I am looking for jobs preparing to move back home to Illinois. My lease in Iowa ends at the end of July, so until then I have almost complete availability this summer through end of July. I can do mornings as early as 6:30am and can be available all day until the late evening or night. I am very flexible and willing to work with what pet owners or their pet needs any day of the week. Your home and your pet are my greatest priorities. Whatever your needs may be I am always willing to learn how I can best assist or provide for your pet. I have respect for owners homes and their boundaries as I strongly believe every individual and their pets deserve a safe and healthy environment to thrive in.

About: I’m one of the biggest animal lovers so I’m always helping family and friends. I also have my own fur baby, who is my world so I know how you feel. I’m home from UIowa for the summer. Because of this, I’m very flexible with the schedule. I’m very go with the flow with my daily schedule. My biggest thing is that I will care for your baby like I do with my baby. I just think pets are some of the most precious things in the world and they bring me so much joy!

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have cared for dogs for friends over the years. While I don’t have formal training or certifications, I bring a lot of heart, patience, and playfulness to every pet I care for. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’m all in. I know how important it is to feel like your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away—and I’m here to provide that kind of care. I work for the Iowa City School District and have the whole summer off—so I’m looking for something fun to do, and what’s better than hanging out with animals? I’ve got plenty of free time and would love to spend it walking dogs, giving belly rubs, and making sure your pets are happy! I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved in their own environment. I stick closely to their usual routines, follow all instructions you provide, and treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine. I know how important trust is, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure your pet gets all the attention, play, and care they need while you’re away.

About: I've taken care of dogs of various ages for about 2 years at the client's home. I've done baths, taken them on walks, outside to go potty, of course feeding and giving all the treats! I work in Cedar Rapids so I'm only able to do mid day check ins in that area. If you aren't in the Cedar Rapids area I can do morning and evening/night check ins. I am able to stay overnight at your home as well if needed. I provide care at the client's home. I am able to come for a drop in visit and hang out with your pet for a short time or I'm able to come and stay for the night, weekend, or longer if needed.

“Hollea was wonderful with Archie and Chesna! It was her first visit and the dogs loved her as soon as she walked in the door. We are looking forward to having her take care of them several times next week.”

About: As a life long dog owner myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I understand that pets are family, and leaving them with someone else takes a lot of trust. I’m currently a student at the University of Iowa and have always genuinely loved animals, especially dogs. I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I’m dependable, patient, and will always treat your pet like my own. My schedule is pretty flexible and I have a lot of availability throughout the week/weekends. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine and is something I look forward to doing I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, especially as a pet owner myself. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in any environment. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, behavior, and any specific needs your pet may have. I’m patient, dependable, and will treat your pet like my own while also keeping you updated so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.

“Sarah responded quickly, was punctual for all check-ins, and took great care of our pets. Will definitely keep her at the top of our list next time we need pet sitting!”
