She was constantly in touch with us giving updates and taking pictures. I appreciated it so much and will 100% book again with her”
“Bria was the best! She was very communicative and made sure to keep us in the loop about the care of our cat. She was punctual, easy to reach, and took the most care of our anxious cat, Mira. We will definitely be using Bria for Mira’s care again in the future. Thanks again!”

About: I am a very experienced caregiver to dogs, cats, and fish, and am used to having pets with high needs and doing things around the house like watering plants, cleaning, and general upkeep. I do prefer caring for pets in their home, as I believe it provides a sense of stability and I can just fit into the preset routine. I am patient and empathetic towards animals and I will definitely make sure they are taken care of and feel comfortable. I can figure most things out on my own but have no problem with chatting with the parents if it comforts them and reassures them that their baby is in good hands. I am available pretty much all the time, and will definitely make your needs the first priority in my schedule. I can't wait to meet you and your pets/s!
About: I have had three dogs for the past 4 years and I have lots of experience taking care of other people’s dogs. I have most experience with small and medium size dogs. I am currently a student working part time so I have a lot of time to take care your pet and give them the attention they need. I have three small dogs of my own and a backyard that the dogs are welcome to play in. I am willing to have animals at my house or go to your home and take care of them in yours.
“Jessica was an incredible sitter! She kept me regularly updated on Lucy and I could tell that she really cared about her wellbeing.”
“Abby was great. She was on time. Asked pertinent questions. Dogs were well cared for.”
About: I have owned pets my entire life and have experience in caring for both dogs and cats. I am currently an animal science: pre-veterinary major and have a passion for taking care of animals. I am experienced in giving medications and following instructions from the owner of the specific ways they want their pet cared for. I also have previously cared for senior pets. I am currently a student athlete at Iowa State University. I am available for drop-in visits during weekdays and weekends. Additionally, I can do overnight visits on the weekends. I am flexible with my schedule, however, and can make accommodations for your pets needs! In order to care for your pet best, I will communicate with you on walking schedules, medications, and any other accommodations. I have experience giving medications such as pills, eye drops, ear drops, and ear cleaning solutions. I am more than willing to work with the owner on special care and welcome instruction.

Abbie T.
“Abbie is the best!! I have a Lab and a young ball of energy Yorkie-poo. They both love Abbie and enjoy her visits. She feeds, waters, potties, and plays with them every time she comes over. It gives me great piece of mind to know that my dogs are cared for while out of town. This is our 3rd time to have her take of them for a week. Your fur babies will love Abbie!”
Debra D.
“I’ve known Debbie for about four years, and her personality and sense of responsibility makes her a natural fit for pet care-giving. She has watched my dogs on several occasions, feeding them, helping my older dog up when his legs weren’t working well, and always showing genuine love and attentiveness toward them. Her compassion for animals truly shines through. Debbie is currently studying social work and also works as a server in her free time. Her ability to communicate with people, whether customers or clients, combined with her warmth and empathy, makes her exceptionally well-suited for caring for both people and pets. I have no doubt she will thrive as a pet caregiver.”

Alicyn C.
“I can't recommend Allie enough! She's an absolute gem when it comes to taking care of my dog, Captain. She has watched him 3 times now and once was for two weeks. She made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well-cared for. She kept me updated while I was gone on how he was doing and sent pictures, too! She goes above and beyond to make sure my dog feels safe and loved, which gives me such peace of mind when I need to travel. I highly recommend Allie to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter!”
