House Sitting in Drake Park, Des Moines, IA

“Jessica was an amazing house sitter. The boys got spoiled with her and she was so loving to them. Hey miss her already. She was very prompt with communication. We plan on using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica!!”

“Nancy was great with our dachshund! She stayed at our house for a long weekend up to the 4th of July and our boy was well taken care of. We rarely leave out but with anyone but family, i am relieved to find a kind and loving person to take care of him outside of that!! She also took care of my moms dog without hesitation!! We will for sure ask her to watch him in the future!!”

“Abby was so great with our two large dogs! Abby house-sat and watched the boys for the entire day/evening, and I could tell when I got home that they'd had fun. She was very tolerant and nice about my quirks and many explanations. I believe she's very trustworthy and has a genuine love for animals. She sent several updates during the day (even a couple pics), which brightened my day and assured me the boys were in good hands. I would definitely have Abby back, and would consider longer stays in the future. Thanks, Abby!”

“Libby and Crockett loved having Ky stay over to keep an eye on them. Ky is excellent at communicating daily updates. We will definitely keep Ky in mind for future trips!”

“Sarah is incredibly patient with my two stinkers! And, she does an amazing job dealing with their quirks, she is so good at dog sitting in my house, I highly recommend her services to anyone that loves their fur babies!! ?”

“We hired Jessica for the first time to pet/house sit our 11 year old golden retriever. She was excellent! She came over prior to meet us and our dog. She communicates well, giving us updates 2-3 times/day; she sent lots of adorable pictures as well! She washed her sheets/towels (without being instructed to) and left the house neat and tidy. Our dog seemed happy when we returned. We would definitely recommend her and will hire her in the future.”

“This was our first time using Andrea and she really did a fantastic job! We were nervous as we haven’t really had that great of luck with our past house/pet sitters. She took time to meet us and even took notes on how to care for our fur babies. Our house was left as we had left it and she spent genuine time with our pets. So pleased with her and already have her scheduled for another one! Highly recommend her!! :)”

“Torina was excellent at caring for my 2 dogs over the weekend. Our dogs have different activity levels and needs, and she was great with both of them. She sent lots of pictures while we were away and left the house clean. I've already booked her again for another stay:)”

“Laura was literally the BEST! She was able to accommodate our last minute request and really gave our 3 dogs lots of love. I plan to continue to use her as long as she will allow us. It really meant so much that I could leave them at home and not worry about them. Thanks again Laura!”

“Chelsea is fantastic. She was so good to our fir babies, I don’t even think they missed us???‍⬛. She was a good communicator, sent pictures and took great care of our house! Thanks, Chelsea ?”

“Lisa did a great job keeping in touch and sending pictures. Our house was clean and the dogs were in good order when we got home. We were very happy with the experience. Thank you Lisa!”

“Mikayla followed all the instructions and left my place clean with a very happy and well taken care of dog. She is responsible and very reliable. Will definitely use again”

“Kendra stayed with our two dogs for a weekend, and is so wonderful! I am typically a worry wart, but she made everything so easy and took great care of our boys! We will definitely book her again ??☺️”

“Sidney took great care of my dog while I was away! She was very caring, punctual, followed our routine, and sent regular text updates to ensure my pet was happy and safe. I would definitely book her again, and you should too!”

“Gigi was responsive, accommodating, kind, and so communicative throughout. Our dog LOVED her and clearly was happy as can be the whole weekend. We will absolutely be working with Gigi whenever possible!!”

“Katya was great with my high energy GSD mix puppy and my lil old beagle/Bassett! She communicated clearly, sent pix and was reliable and respectful. We had a great meet and greet which was so comforting for me.”

“Javon was a phenomenal sitter and I would highly recommend for anyone looking to have someone care for their pet. She was communicative and very thorough, plus my pup really loved his time with Javon. 5 stars!”

“Ashley has always gone above and beyond when it comes to taking care of my dogs. She is a very compassionate and loving individual and there's no one I trust more to care for my pets.”

“We were lucky enough to get Brandon S on short notice of a holiday weekend to come and watch our Frenchie, Carl, and his purrific brother Bull. We typically do a drop at a Rover’s house, but Brandon was able to stay and hold the fort down. We couldn’t be happier with the setup. We received lots of photos of a happy Carl. The dog was tired-out and fully fed when we got home - a very good sign that our anxious dog felt comfortable with Brandon. Not only was he good with the animals, but he left the place spotless - even washed the sheets! We couldn’t recommend him more, we’ll be using him again!”

About: I have been around and cared for animals for most of my life! Ranging from mostly cats of all ages to older dogs. Previously I’ve done home visits for check-ins and walks, to house-sitting for those on vacation. I am currently a full-time student, so I have a flexible schedule in between classes during the day and after 5 p.m. I can accommodate overnight care and I am available on the weekends! I am a full-time student, so during the week, I am unavailable... Mon. - 12 pm - 4 pm Tues. & Thurs. - 6 am - 6 pm Wed. & Fri.- 6 am - 11 am, 2 pm - 4 pm On weekends I am majorly available! Within your home, I would be more than happy to perform whatever duties are needed to keep your animals safe and happy. From kettling them if needed, to leashed walks. Just let me know what works best for you. I’m used to watching large dogs in un-fenced yards and having to crate one of them when I leave. Also used to either just take them out to go or take them on long 20-30 minute walks so they could get their exercise.
