House Sitting in Coralville

“Brooke was amazing! The house was spotless when I got home, and Mija was happy and clearly well taken care of. She was very communicative and sent several updates throughout the booking, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”

Dakota Z.

“Amelia was awesome! She helped get my puppy to daycare and sent pics and updates! Will absolutely hope that she’s available if I need a dog site in the future. 10/10 recommend!”

“Haley did a great job of keeping our fur babies company while we were out of town for a long weekend. Lots of cuddles and walks. I would recommend her for sure!”

Linda S.

“Chasity was amazing with my senior and special needs dog, Ollie. He requires a strict routine due to his diabetes and Chasity picked it up easily. I was sent pictures and videos often as well as messages confirming when he was given insulin. It gave me peace of mind and reassurance things were going well at home. I highly recommend Chasity!”

About: Hi, my name is Ella! I have had pets in my house since I was born and have had three dogs. I currently have a yellow lab and I am obsessed with her. I have loved having dogs by my side while I’ve grown up. I love every dog I meet and have also loved trying to train my own dogs. I can’t wait to meet so many new pets and care for them like my own. I am a college student so am typically available during the afternoon, nights, or weekends. I do occasionally have some free time around my classes. I can play, feed, walk, or do whatever you need for your dogs! I will give them all the love and attention they need and never leave them unattended.

“Kayla went above and beyond for our boy! She is super reliable and took such amazing care of Jax! Just to add how amazing she is, our garage code wasn’t working and she stayed over an hour locked out trying to figure out a solution to make sure she got to Jax while we were out of town!! A+ from us!”

“Nicole has a natural instinct with dogs. She took time to meet our 3 dogs twice before she would be staying at our house for 3 days. The dogs welcomed her easily. We enjoyed the pictures of the dogs while we were away. I look forward to having Nicole dog sitting again.”

“Bethany was wonderful with Cooper. I really appreciated the pictures while she was with him. Can’t say enough nice things about her! Thanks so much for taking such good care of my pup.”

About: I was raised in a home with lots of animals, dogs, cats and fish. My grandparents raised rabbits and birds. I was around pets domestic and exotic and love all creatures. My first job was pet sitting, my second was in a horse stable. I've had animals in my care my whole life. My day job is caring for humans as a nurse, I would love to say hi to your good boys and girls! I do work 4 days a week and so my schedule will be open around those hours. I don't mind waking up early, or staying up a little late. My noon hour availability is on my days off. Our dogs are herding breed and very active, so I am used to playing all of the games. I like to use positive reinforcement with all animals. I will treat your home with respect just like I do my own.

“Sara did a fabulous job taking care of our dogs in our home. We have a 14-year old and a 3-month old, so they have very different needs! She sent tons of pictures and updates and even offered to clean out our older dog’s troublesome ear. We highly recommend Sara and hope to book her again soon.”

“Joy was fantastic! Super responsive, flexible, and took great care of our little pal.”

“Sydney helped us out with a VERY last minute booking and still made us feel at ease that Ember (our pup) was in good hands. She went out of her way to do a meet and greet with us the day we connected with her and was very communicative throughout the stay whenever we reached out! We will definitely use her again!”

Gabija M.

“Extremely attentive and informative while watching my dogs. If you want someone who you can trust to be on top of every one of your dogs needs, this is your man.”

“Mika is a reactive dog around strangers, and this was her very first time staying alone without me — so it wasn’t an easy situation. The first few hours were tough, but Sky, with so much patience, love, and sensitivity, managed to earn Mika’s trust and affection on the very first day. It was truly amazing. 🤩 On top of that, Sky gave me so much peace of mind by sending frequent updates and photos of Mika, which really helped ease my anxiety. ADEMÁS que habla español, mi idioma nativo, así que no pude estar más cómoda en nuestra comunicación. Sky —a name that couldn’t be more fitting— is a kind, respectful, communicative, and very responsible young woman. I would trust her with Mika again a thousand times over. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Sky! 💖”

“5 stars for Julia! She took incredible care of my cat and was super reliable. I came home to a happy pet and a clean house. She is professional, thoughtful, and left absolutely no mess. I highly recommend her!”

Larue W.

“Penny was great! Responsive, send pictures, was patient and sweet with our husky. Penny was on-time and flexible, we returned to a happy house and dog. We are already looking forward to working with them again in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for a number of years in a number of different households and situations! I ran my own private organization of child and pet care with a network 30+ families. Walking, playing, and TLC are a must when I care for dogs (and cats if they like it!), and I make sure that the animals are healthy and well cared for at all times. I've volunteered at SPCAs and animal shelters for a number of years and get a lot of joy out of being around and caring for pets and animals of any kind! I'm a recent graduate from the University of Iowa and am continuing to live in the city for the next few months to work on my professional career and prepare for a future big move. While I have a 9-5 during the week, I'm happy to do any evening pet sitting Mon-Thur or daytime pet sitting on Fridays. Additionally, I am fairly open on weekends! I make sure they are comfortable with me first so that I do not spook them before I go through tasks such as feeding, refilling water, cleaning litterboxes/puppy pads, etc. to let the animals get used to me being in their space before I interact with them physically (playtime, bellyrubs, brushing/washing) I usually chat a bit while doing this as in my experience, I find speaking softly and gently often calms the animals and gets them to be more comfortable around new people. Afterwards, I transition to playing with them, taking them on walks, giving them a little TLC, and make sure any active animals get the exercise and interaction they need throughout the day/time that I spend with them. Finally, I make sure everything is clean, in place, and the animals are comfortable before I finish up!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for about 10 years and have loved it! Anything from my own two dogs, neighbors dogs, and family friends pups!🤍 My two dogs either sleep in my room or in there dogs beds downstairs, either way our mornings are filled with breakfast, one of my homemade treats and a trip outside! I have a fenced in yard back home that has worked great for my two big dogs, I have also worked with dogs with crates, and dogs that go about the house freely! I have experience with lots of different animals that need lots of different types of care!

“Kate communicated well and often when house sitting with my 2 dogs. She seemed patient and empathetic with my elderly dog. The house looked great when we got home and while away I was happy to see pics texted to me of them going for walks, which they love!”

Debbie J.

“Raquel was fantastic. We used her for house sitting with our doggo who doesn’t love being boarded. She treated him like he was her own and he was one happy dude when we got back. We felt totally comfortable having Raquel stay at our place. She communicated well and sent us regular updates with pictures. Will definitely book again!”
