Dog Boarding Downtown Des Moines

“Kevin was absolutely wonderful with my sweet Terry. From the very first day, he kept in constant communication, sharing updates that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear that Terry was not just cared for, but genuinely loved and treated like family during the 9 days she stayed with him. I’m so grateful to have found Kevin through Rover, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust him with Terry again. Highly, highly recommended!”

“Cynthia was easy to communicate with and flexible with drop off and pick up times. Looking forward to having her watch our fur baby again in a week!”

“Alice was fabulous!! She sent photos and a video and updates as to how our pupster was doing. We felt confident that she was in very good hands. Our dog is usually anxious around other dogs but she warmed up quickly to Alice’s little frenchie and they even had some play time. We will use her again if we need this service in the future.”

“My wife and I left the country for about 10 days and were worried because we have never left our dog with strangers or in a kennel because he is older and adopted. He has a weird routine and glaucoma so he needed a little extra care but they handled him perfectly and he fit right into their routine. Melanie and her family saved us 100%! They constantly sent us pics and updates on him which made us feel better. They took care of him as if he was part of their family and we greatly appreciate it. 10/10!”

“They treated our Zoey like we do: with love and cuddles! Thank you for all the pictures and the follow up! She even got a free ball! Thanks!!!”

“Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!”

“Shaelea was warm and welcoming to my doggo. I was anxious leaving him at a new person's home, but I had nothing to worry about! He had a great time and came home happy! Shaelea was great with communication and flexible with pickup and drop-off. I would recommend her and would happily board with her again.”

“Jenevieve is the best!! Excellent at communication! Loved getting the updates and photos of Kinnick! Thanks for taking such good care of him!! We are so grateful for you!!”

“We came to Iowa for a wedding. Cory took good care of our 2 senior dogs (labs). One has separation anxiety that he was able to comfort and the other took a nap on his bed. He walked and fed them.”

Cathy G.

“Robbie & Family are the best sitters we’ve ever had. They go above and beyond in taking care of our Bolt. We will continue to book Robbie every chance we get!!”

Daniel B.

“We love Erin, Chris, and their family! They treat our dog, Bailey like their own. They are super easy to work with and I love knowing that Bailey is in a loving home while we are gone.”

Lori B.

“We have an incredibly shy dog. He is very leery of people and we have tended to not board him. Osvaldo and his family were AMAZING with our dog. They were petting him, he was sleeping at their feet, and they were taking him for walks in the park--something he never does well. We loved all the updates, his home was set up for taking care of dogs, and he had other dogs to play with while we were gone--something he loves. I think Osvaldo is a dog whisperer. Magic--sheer magic! Even our dog trainer couldn't get these results from him. We are forever indebted and will use him again!”

Stephanie B.

“Christy & Erkam were so great. Daily pictures and updates on how our pup was doing really gave us peace of mind and let us know she was having a great time. They took the time to understand her schedule and habits which really shows just how much they care. Wouldn't hesitate to have them watch our girl again!”

Scott A.

“Casandra is awesome! She took great care of Maisie & Milo! We received lots of photos & videos throughout the week! Would highly recommend Casandra!”

Kelly M.

“Alexandra was awesome! I’m a paranoid helicopter mom who had never left my dogs with anyone but friends and family before, but I felt completely at ease leaving them with Alexandra! She let me bring my dogs over for a meet and greet before their stay to make sure everyone got along and her pup is super sweet. Her huge yard is absolutely amazing for my high energy dogs. Her knowledge of dog behavior and separating for dinner time made me feel very safe that my girls were in good hands. I’ll be using her services again!”

Amber D.

“Meagan is an excellent dog sitter! Fantastic communication, frequent photo updates, and truly attentive care. We felt totally confident our dog was in great hands. Highly recommend!!”

Maureen F.

“Morgan was great with Kayce! We received pictures every day. Kayce was well taken care of and came home a Happy pup. Would highly recommend Morgan!”

Dennis A.

“Rebekah was awesome! This was our first time using a dog sitter so we were a little nervous. We had a visit with her dogs and after a little while, we were comfortable they would get along ok. Rebekah was very flexible and responsive and sent us pictures every day. She truly took care of our dog and loved her like her own. She had so much fun, which helped us to relax and not worry while we were away. It was a great experience and we will definitely use Rebekah in the future and recommend her to anyone.”

Gretchen S.

“Rachael was amazing. She responded back quickly and got a meet & greet done with. She listened to instructions and seems passionate about canine care! Definitely recommend and will continue to hire her!”

Ezequiel R.

“Jessica was wonderful with our 2 dogs as we moved back to the state! She was flexible, provided us with photos and videos while also treating our pets as her own.”
