About: Since a baby, I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, and reptiles. Not all at once, but I have always been a lover of animals of all types. I have been around animals with sensitive diets, tummy troubles, skin sensitivity, anxiety, and paw pain and know how to spot the warning signs for most common complications. Grooming, bathing, feeding, and exercise are all tasks I am deeply familiar with. If your pet has unique care instructions, trust that I will do my best research prior and will carefully ensure your baby receives the most comfortable stay. I am a college student currently. I currently live in a studio apartment near UNI and will be able to flexibly care for any animals of all types; sans very large dogs for space reasons. My time mostly consists of studying and trying to find the time to exercise enough, so you don't have to worry about a busy body! For my in home service, I am very meticulous about "leaving it as I found it or better than it was." Having military discipline, I am punctual about arriving, check-ins, and feeding/potty times. You can guarantee that any and all instructions relating to your baby or babies is closely followed and communication prompt when necessary. As for boarding or hourly stays, my home is their home. They are welcome to sleep or lounge where they like and accompany me on a walk around town or during a Law and Order binge. Belly rubs and butt scratches are always available round the clock!

“Baylee is AMAZING! She was able to meet with me right away, and fit Winston in next day. She worked around my schedule and made me feel super comfortable. Listened to all my worries and made me feel so much better having a sitter. Winston absolutely loved her :) I wil definitely be re booking with her for any of my needs.”

“Tee-Tee was EXTREMELY accommodating after the first walker I booked became unresponsive HOURS before I had to leave for a work trip out of state. Tee-Tee was on time, very communicative and through the pictures & videos she sent, I could tell my dogs already love her! I definitely will be using her again!”

About: I have always loved pets and appreciated the love they give us in return. Growing up, our household always had a dog and a couple cats with the occasional fish or two as well. I currently live with two very precious cats that need a lot of love and attention. As someone who truly loves furry (and not always furry) friends, I understand the importance of taking care of them, just like how they take care of us. I am currently a student at UNI and have a few part-time jobs, but I have a lot of flexibility in my daily schedule. My evenings are usually the busiest time for me with various rehearsals and concerts, but those are scheduled in advance and are easy to plan for. Having been around pets my whole life, I know how to respect a pet's boundaries and how to gain their trust. I understand that I am a stranger in their home and that it can take time and patience for them to welcome me.

We have 4 corgis of our own as well as cattle, goats, sheep, & chickens! There is so much room to run and we take pride in giving your pet the experience of a lifetime!

We understand that pets can be nervous, so this serves as a great spot to get comfortable! We can take care of your fur babies on weeks days & weekends with short notice & everything in between! We have three extremely friendly corgis, who love to play & snuggle! We are able to accommodate any times that are needed! I stay home with our little one so my schedule is flexible to fit your needs! We do have a kennel set-up so that your furbaby can feel it has a space of its own but we also have open doors when it comes to our home! We want your pet to feel the most comfortable during their stay with us!

About: I love to walk dogs and play with cats! I have lots of experience cleaning up after dogs and cleaning up litter boxes as well. Your best friend will be treated with care! I am a student so my schedule is flexible, especially on Tuesday and Thursday. Just message me and I will get back to you soon! I can come to your house and spend time with your pet and take them for a walk! Or, I can also watch your pets at my house. I have a large acreage that I can walk them around.

About: I love animals. I have been around a huge variety from farm animals, to reptiles, from birds to domestic pets. I raised lambs, volunteered at a dog shelter, and have my lovely horse to care for now. I love big dogs and think they are often misunderstood. I will always follow your care instructions and will keep you updated on your pet to ease your mind while you are away. I work 2 part time jobs. I work fast food and I babysit. I do not work on Sundays, but the rest of the week my fast food job schedule varies. I know on Thursday the week before what my next weeks schedule is and will never accept jobs that I know would cause me to not properly care for your pet. I don't offer services from my home, but I am knowledgeable to know how to crate your pet if needed, safely attach harnesses, and will check all doors and locks before I leave your property to ensure your pet doesn't escape. I will make sure all water bowls and food bowls are clean, and that water bowls are filled each time I leave.

About: I work at a doggy daycare/boarding facility although I haven’t worked there to long but that doesn’t change my love for animals! I personally have 2 dogs, 4 cats and a bunny named Ace. I’ve cared for a lot of animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, turtles, ferrets, snakes, geckos, bearded dragons, mice and rats you name it I’ve pry had it or had some experience with them. Big or small, young or old, I’d love to help your animals out in anyway I can!🐾🐶🐱 I work full time at my dog daycare/boarding job, but I have an hour off for lunch on week days that I work and work every other weekend with 4 hours break between my 2 shifts, but can always find time to make things work. I’ll do anything in my power to make sure your dog / cat is completely safe and comfortable with me, as I would my own animals

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience and specialized skills. I have a background in animal behavior, allowing me to understand and address each dog's unique needs. I’m trained in handling both senior dog's and those with special requirements, ensuring they receive the best care. Additionally, I can offer enrichment activities to keep them engaged and happy. My commitment to creating a safe, loving environment makes all the difference in your dog’s well-being while you’re away. Dog care is a key part of my daily routine. Each morning begins a walk to get the day started right. I am available anytime your pup needs me. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on creating a familiar and comforting environment. I provide regular feeding, exercise, and playtime, ensuring routines remain consistent. I also administer any medications as needed and monitor their behavior for any signs of distress. Daily updates are given to the pet owner, including photos and messages. Additionally, I prioritize keeping their area clean and safe, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away.

About: I have worked with and loved many animals throughout my life; gaining experience by working with rescues, shelters and non-profit organizations benefiting dogs, cats and horses in Iowa and Virginia. I have also worked in the pet care industry my whole life. I was a Pet Groomer for 10 years, have worked closely with trainers, supervised daycare & boarding, and have spent the last 3 years in Veterinary Medicine as a Veterinary Assistant. I currently share my home with 3 dogs and a cat. I often care for my parents' dogs; one of which is Diabetic & has recently gone blind. Helping her learn to enjoy walks again has been a great experience! I have experience in most aspects of pet care; dog sitting, boarding, basic First Aid, administering oral & injectable medications, grooming and training, and know that each pet needs a unique, gentle approach. First and foremost I believe in making your pet comfortable by sticking to their (and your) schedule as much as possible. By keeping feeding, walking & potty times the same, I can provide and calm and happy presence for your pet through a positive attitude and relaxed demeanor. I also enjoy providing enrichment for you pet through play, walks, games and treats. Pet care is my life! I am available most every day to help you keep your pets happy and healthy, and to help them thrive in their own, comfortable environment. From a walk around the block a couple times a week, to daily drop in visits while you're at work, and finally house sitting when you're on that special trip, I'm here to be that special friend your pet needs! Keeping your pet safe is my number one priority. From making sure doors and gates are securely shut, to triple checking medicine before it’s given and using an additional slip lead for walks and transport, nothing goes unnoticed!

About: I've had dogs, and cats my entire life, whether it be the family pets, or my own. I've had and taken care of cats, and dogs. My girlfriend and I currently have two dogs, Harry a 2 year old Husky, Chow, Terrier, Poodle mix. Oliver a year and a half year old Golden Retriever. Pet care is a LARGE part of my day to day life. I try and give my dogs at least one walk or trip to the dog park every day. Our dogs are part of our family. They're very sweet, and loving. My girlfriend and I do not live together so they stay at both of our houses throughout the week. At my house, where I will be boarding clients dogs is partially fenced in, but when outside the dogs are always supervised and tied. I generally stay outside with them while they're outside because I don't think I can be too cautious when it comes to their safety. When it comes to a clients pets, I would be just as if not more diligent. As mentioned, I do have two dogs of my own, however when taking care of clients pets, my dogs will stay at my girlfriend's house to eliminate any possible conflicts. If hired to go to a clients home, I am happy to accommodate whatever instructions and routines they have for their own dogs or cats.

About: I’m a current student at UNI pursuing Veterinary Medicine. I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats my entire life and cared for someone else’s for three years in addition to babysitting. I currently have my own friendly Great Pyrenees and Cat and love spending time around furry friends I’m currently working part time and I am out of school very early in the day allowing me to spend my afternoons and nights (and some mornings) caring for your furry friends I have a fenced in yard and a friendly Great Pyrenees and kitty who love interacting with new friends and if need be I have a way of separating my own from yours with our house set up

About: I absolutely LOVE animals! I own a red lab named Koe. Him and I are very active and he loves going on walks just as much as me. I promise you your loved fur baby(ies) are in the best hands. I will treat them as if they are my own! I always do a meet and greet prior. I am used to small to large dogs, any breed, any age! Would love to care for your animal! I usually work days Tuesday thru Friday but that can do check ins after work. I’m very accommodating, please feel free to ask! I can come before and after work. I have a fence and 2 very playful dogs who will love your puppy. We are very active and go on lots of walks daily.

About: I used to work at a dog kennel a couple years ago. For years I would also volunteer at the shelter in my home town. I’ve always had a dog with me while growing up and of course even now, I can’t imagine not having at least one! I’ve had dogs from all ages from puppies to old babies! I have 5 dogs (all different sizes) and 3 cats! I’ve baby sat my friends dogs and cats and neighbors pets like birds, rabbits, lizards, and handful of others plenty of times too! I’ve been around all kinds of animals and have owned a good diversity of animals. I absolutely adore animals and treat them like they are my babies. I’d love to help you out and take care of your pet while you are away or even let them come over for some doggy daycare! Pet sitting is becoming my full time job! I have plenty of time for my babies and I’ll have plenty of time for yours :) My life revolves around my pets! I have a fenced in yard for my dogs. I normally play with them in my backyard for at least an hour in the afternoon. They love to sunbathe outside so I like to sit outside with them and read. I have a kiddie pool that they love to play in too! In the evenings I take them on a walk through our neighborhood as well. At least one weekend day I’ll either take them to the dog park or on a longer hike/ walk which they absolutely love. I have devoted my days to pet sitting so I am available almost always. I take care of my own animals from sun up till sun down! I have a big fully fenced in yard that my dogs absolutely love! I normally am outside with them playing with them or just to keep an eye on them!

“Tiara helped us out with a last minute dog walk while my partner and I would be out at work for 12 hours. Serious life saver! She is so so nice and very caring. She sent the best photos and even texted another update after she left to assure us all was good. 10/10 recommend ? Booking again for sure! ❤️”
