Dog Sitting Dunkerton

About: I am an animal lover with experience for dogs of all sizes. As well as cats, bunnies, and snakes. I have cared for puppies all the way through senior aged. I can’t wait to meet your fur-kids. I have experience with dogs with diabetes as well. I am currently working a part time job and so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur-kid. I also have complete flexibility with what hours I can come, if something is not listed please feel free to reach out. I care for all animals as if they were my own. They will receive only the best cuddles, story time if desired, lots of walks, and ear scratches.

“Great job. Thank you”

About: I have lived with animals and taken care of them all of my life. As an adolescent, I had several dogs (sizes ranging from a chihuahua to a saint bernard mix) that I would frequently take on walks, clean up after, feed, play with, and overall care for. I also worked with a service dog trainer for about a year to train a dog I had in the past since she was three months old. I will be going to college in August, but until then I am completely free to watch, walk, or visit any furbabies at any time for as long as needed! (Starting May 25th, as I do not move to Cedar Falls until then) My cat is rather spoiled with hundreds of toys, constant access to food, and lots and lots of love. I understand the importance of socializing your animals to new people and other animals, and take it very seriously, hence why he is an absolute cuddlebug for everyone that meets him! I would make sure to give the same amount of care and attention to your pets. Spending as much time as they need to socialize, play, and relax, as every pet is different and has different needs!

About: Hey I'm Syd! I've always had a big heart for animals! I think my family started taking notice when I kept my walmart goldfish alive for 10 years! I recently had to put my childhood cat down and am looking to love on pets to fill the void. My friend began pet sitting on the rover app and when she moved away I took over one of her clients. (Who you will probably notice in most my pics!) We love going on walks, going for pup cup runs, going to grooming appointments together, and even going to the store once and awhile together to pick out new toys. I can quite confidently say I see him as a friend and love taking him to as many event as possible! My friends always ask if he can come to one of our favorite events, tailgating! I am a full time college student at UNI and work part time in retail. I almost always can spend the night if need be and come to the home for potty breaks as needed. I've lived in the same neighborhood for almost my whole life and feel very comfortable taking strolls around the neighborhood. My mom works from home and is almost always around. We live less than a mile away from the dog park and near a beautiful nature reserve and trail we frequent often :)

About: My family has had dogs since I was born, and I took care of them since I was 12. I regularly fed, walked, played with, washed, and brushed our dogs. I have trained our two previous dogs with simple commands such as sit, stay, lay down, and come. I’m currently in between jobs so I have plenty of time to care for pets! Weekdays typically work better for me as I tend to travel on the weekends. I have always believed that every animal deserves all the love in the world, and I follow that in my every day life. I’m comfortable in almost any situation regarding animals, and have plenty of experience with crates and other measures to keep our furry friends from wreaking havoc within the house.

About: I've had my dog and many others since I was a kid. My parents got me my dog Spot to teach me about responsibility and I have taken very good care of him and pay for him. We lived on a farm with different dogs coming in and out that I took care of along with some cats. I love animals and would love to have my future career with them. My work schedule is Tuesday to Friday and I work until 6-8pm. I'm available all day Saturday-Monday or night time on the other days if wanted. I will walk your dogs around town as much as they need and they will be fed on time. I have 3 pets at home I take care of, my dog spot and 2 cats Tom and Tita. (Not named by me)

About: Freshly graduated with a Bachelor's degree in biology with an emphasis in zoology! As of now I am working full time at Midwest Laboratories, but can't help but miss the animal interaction. Previously I worked as a Vet Assistant and also have prior pet sitting and dog walking experience. I have had very minor experience in training/ working with goats through my time in college. My passion is working with animals no matter what species! I also have experience with reptiles through my time as a reptile keeper intern at Rolling Hills Zoo in Salina, Kansas! I have two cats and two dogs of my own. Simba is an 8 month GSD who is currently in training to be a service dog and Apollo is a 2 year old GSD mix. I would love to get to know more about you and your fur baby!:) I work full time from 8-4/5 everyday. I will have plenty of time for pet care in the evening and I will alternate weeks of boarding care vs in home pet sitting. I have a fenced in yard for pups, although it is fenced I never leave pups unattended! In my house I have 2 cats that are very use to dogs and a 3 year old son. So dogs for boarding need to be cat and child friendly. I am able to follow any care plan you have and meet needs such as dietary instructions and medications that may be needed.

“Maxie is great! She communicated well and let us know what was going on every visit. Very sweet and upbeat gal who lives animals. Our pups lived her. She is must have for your pets.:)”

About: I have had numerous pets throughout the years. I have been trusted to take care of peoples cats, dogs, fish, and other animals! I had a cat and a dog growing up and miss having animals in the house, but can’t because of my husbands allergies! This will help me get my pet fix! I would be able to provide walks before and after work and more frequently on the weekends. I would be able to fit in some afternoons if it is close to my place of employment! I would keep a watchful eye on your pet while dog sitting. If out walking, I would ensure that your pet is kept at a safe distance from other animals. I would also make sure that your pet is treated with care and respect!

About: Good pups are a huge portion of my life. I was raised around animals and cared for others pets while living with family and independently and all of my free time is spent caring for my six pets: Spencer the fish, Yato & Yuki kitties, Tilly & Deku pups, and Peter the rabbit. So anytime to care is a good time to call. I am a full-time healthcare worker at Shell Rock Senior Living that loves to be active and to have an interactive lifestyle. I would be available during most morning and afternoon hours to provide any pet care you would need. We have a decent and clean home and yard in the Cedar Valley that we share in a lovely neighborhood that has welcomed us and our fur babies. We go on walks and play outside with our two dogs and pet rabbit Peter. We also are lucky enough to share our pets with the residents at Shell Rock and take them in quite often. Any pet is welcome with us!

About: I absolutely adore all animals. I have one cat, two guinea pigs, and three dogs. I love seeing the different personalities each pet has. I have some experience training both dogs and cats, but ultimately I love the attention and joy they all can bring. I work full time but can stop for walks or visits on my lunches or before or after work. I really enjoy walking, and it's definitely better with a furry friend or two (or more if needed!) My dogs get full reign of the house, except for the puppy, so I'm used to the occasional messes or the kenneling process. I've house sat multiple time so I am good with acclimating to your wishes in your household.

About: I played football at UNI and I can take care of any type of dog. I grew up with Bullmastiffs and Shihtzus and I am ready to take care of any dog you have. I have two in person classes on M W F only from 11-2. Other than that I am free looking to help others out. Besides that I am just working on homework and working out myself in the mornings. I live in a house on the cedar river with plenty of trails. I have a large unused dog cage in my basement as well.

About: I’ve had experience with many different breeds of dogs ranging from chihuahuas all the way up to Great Danes. No matter the size or breed of dog, I will treat that dog as if it were my own. I’m currently working part time until I go back to school next semester, so I’ll have many opportunities throughout the week to walk or watch dogs. I’ve got a dog of my own, so I know that a safe and fun environment is a very important factor for our fur babies when they’re being watched.

About: Hi! I am Jamie Althiser and I currently am in Physician Assistant school doing my clinical rotations. I went to undergrad at the University of Northern Iowa and am in Cedar Falls on the weekends and some weekdays. I have a cat named finny and a 6 month old golden retriever pup named Teo :) I grew up with a lab and German Shepard in my house. For 2 years I volunteered at the cedar bend humane society in cedar falls. I love cats and dogs and would love to care for any in need :) Special abilities: I taught my cat how to play fetch with a mouse 😺 I have my weekends open and evenings during the work week. You can always reach out to see when I am available any given week. I have a fenced in yard and a golden retriever pup who gets along with every dog to keep your pup company! We will be inside and outside but the pups are never outside alone.

About: I’ve owned and cared for pets of all kinds my entire life, as well as worked at a boarding facility for 4 years that took in dogs and cats (as well as the occasional rodent, pig or reptile) I’ll treat your pet of any kind like my own! i’m currently working part time from monday to friday and will have most availability on weekends, but i do have a a very flexible work schedule and can try to make it work! I prefer caring at a clients home due to the fact that i have cats of my own that are uncomfortable with unfamiliar pets. i’ll provide care to your specifications to ensure your pet is as comfortable and loved as possible!

“Cass was on time with her visits and very communicative. Highly recommend!”

About: Growing up I have always had cats and dogs around in my life. I have always bonded with cats and have lots of experience taking care of newborn kittens. I have found homes for 30 cats and kittens and would love to continue helping cats, dogs and owners out with pet care as needed! I love meeting new pets and owners and I’m exited to have you book with me! I currently work at Texas Roadhouse and am starting collage! Being injured I had to rethink how I was going to work and make money and rover works out very will for me! It’s an amazing opportunity to help pet owners in need as well as connect with pets! I love exercising and walking and always make the pets included if they want to be, even my 15 pound cat in his backpack! I currently live in an apartment building and go for walks frequently. I do own a cat backpack that is breathable for the cats to take them on walks as well as a cat and dog leash and harness for small dogs! I also have lots cat toys and a few dog toys that are just waiting to be used by someone other than my cats (whom are great with other animals).

About: I've had furbabies of all types since I was a child, worked as a veterinary tech for several years and foster cats and small pets. I currently work part time remotely from home and can take my work with me anywhere I go! I love kitty cuddles and no pup is too big to sit on my lap. My furbabies are family and are treated with respect, care and love. I treat all animals the same way, as if they were my own!

About: I have worked in many different aspects of caring for animals, from shelters, to a boarding facility. I also volunteer for an animal shelter. I pet sit for friends often and love to do it!! I am obsessed with animals, ask anybody that knows me!! ☺️ I have at least 8 years experience working with animals. I have also had dogs my whole life, and currently have a sheltie puppy named Rosie. I have mainly worked with large breeds of dogs, but I love all dogs! I also have a passion for cats, and love to analyze their behavior and see why they react versus ‘that was bad.’ Please let me know if you are interested in me helping you and your pets! Thank you!
