Doggy Day Care in Grimes

“Sherilynn is the absolute best! Daisy loves going to her home! She knows the days that she goes and she is always so excited to see Sherilynn and her family! When I pick Daisy up, she is always disappointed to have to leave her friends!”

“My first time using rover and Samantha was so great to work with. Easy to communicate with and my pup had the best day with her! He was well taken care of and enjoyed playing in her big back yard. Will absolutely use Samantha again!!”

“Melanie has been amazing with my senior dog. He was in need of companionship and they are very attentive with him. I love the photos of his day❤️”

Keisha A.

“My dog had a great first daycare experience with Mackenzie and Anthony. He’s had issues with anxiety with sitters in the past, and did very well with them and their 2 dogs. I highly recommend.”

Diana G.

“My fur baby feels very comfortable at Briana's. She's very good at responding to messages, leaving notes about his day, and takes a lot of pictures.”

Theresa B.

“Scott was great with Jax, he gave frequent updates throughout the day and Jax had so much fun playing safely with the other pups at day camp, will for sure go back to him in the future!”

“Samantha was absolutely wonderful. It was easy to set up - our first time using rover. Communication was prompt - she was so pleasant and we felt very comfortable with our dog staying at her house. Can't say enough - she was great, and we would love to have more bookings with her.”

Kari B.

“Andrea was a great communicator and I appreciated how responsive she was. Monte seemed really happy when I picked him up and I am sure we will be in touch with Andrea soon for future daycare/boarding opportunities.”

Cheyenne P.

“Jen and her family are amazing and I think our pup Nila would go to their house to visit every day if she could. Nila initially had some anxiety from some bad past experiences when Jen first started watching her, and Jen was incredible at helping her feel safe and gain confidence back. And her own dog Mia does such a good job of respecting Nila’s boundaries but also encouraging her to play and get out of her comfort zone. Jen treats every dog with so much love and care as if it was her own, and goes above and beyond any expectations we had.”

Katelyn P.

“Heather has been taking care of my pup, Junie for a few weeks. Between her and her two kids, they make sure my girl is well cared for. I never worry about Junie when she is with Heather. Heather even takes her for walks of an evening and drops her off. Heather truly goes above and beyond for my girl! Highly recommend her.”

Emily W.

“Emma was very nice and took great care of my two dogs. I would recommend her to other others!”

Tyler F.

“Clean home, friendly, took our dog to the dog park and sent pics throughout the day!”

About: I have had pets my entire adult life, and I know how important it is to you to find the right person to take care of them while you’re away. I am committed to taking care of your pets like they’re my own, and I’m excited to provide lots of love and fun! I work from home, and my husband is a full time dad, so we’d be happy to spend time with your pets, go for walks as a family, and see to their every need! We have pet gates throughout the home, extra kennels if needed, and a fenced in yard. We are also comfortable giving medication orally or via injection if needed.

“Penny has some new best friends! She always looked like she was having a blast! Jennifer even took her to her first water experience at the lake! Definitely will book with them again!”

About: I have experience with a wide variety of dogs, but especially with specials needs, senior, and small and large dogs. My old fur-baby, Jack, was special needs (born with scoliosis) and I did the majority of care for him. He lived to be 17 and a half. I work from home with a relatively flexible schedule. During the weekdays I am available for daycare, pop-ins, walks, and house-sitting. On the weekends I am available for boarding and overnights. I live in an apartment but am very active and can ensure plenty of outside time if desired. My complex also has a large fenced-in dog park area. I have one dog who is very friendly and can keep your dog company and play with. I am available to go to your place as well if prefered.

“Sara did a great job with my dog Ocean. She took him in short notice and dealt with all that comes with a 4 month old puppy. I would recommend her highly.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm, very experienced in pet sitting; my own dog had diabetes for 4 years so I’m experienced in administering medications. I love animals! I took some time off of college to focus on pet sitting. I have an unlimited amount of availability, I am hard-working, loving and reliable. I will care for your pets per your request, I will follow each clients requests while providing quality and loving pet care for your baby!! I take care of animals every day!! I have my own puppy who I care for, as well as cats that I help take care of I will do whatever you need me to do, and take care of your fur baby. Just let me know what you need and I will do that. I am not picky at all, and can work with you!

About: Hey there! I’m Rachel and I’ve had a family dog for as long as I can remember. But now I have a family of my own- my partner and I have 4 kids and a mini zoo with 1 bunny, 2 ball pythons, 1 bearded dragon, 2 dogs, 4 cats, 6 mourning geckos and 6 aquariums with fish, snails, dwarf crayfish and shrimp. So, I have a lot of experience with a wide range of animals. Since I’ve started pet sitting on Rover I’ve also gained experience with raw feeding cats and dogs, chicken wrangling, mini home repairs, tree moving, raspberry picking and goose whispering. I used to volunteer every day at the local animal shelter while I was in highschool where I got tons of experience with all types of dogs and frequently helped out the neighbors with their escape artist husky! I previously worked as an assistant dog trainer. I’ve gotten tons of experience with how to better read animal’s body language, create and maintained presence control and facilitate healthy play. While most of my experience is with dogs, I am a true animal lover. One of the biggest perks of having me as your sitter is that our whole family helps take part. My 15 year old, Bella, is usually heavily involved in the care of the animals we sit. My other 3 younger kids also absolute love to take care of and play with all the animals. If your pets like to hang out and play with kids, get attention all day long… your pets are in for a treat with us! (For boarding) We truly strive to give dogs a home-away-from-home experience where they just jump right into our routine. Most of the time they end up sleeping in bed with one of our kids, playing with us outside, getting loves on the couch- all the stuff a family dog can expect. We stand proudly in our family beliefs of qualify pet care and don’t want to be a boarding spot where they put your animal in a kennel, let them out twice a day and charge you extra for playtime or potty breaks. (For pet sitting at home): We do come and go more often when we are sitting pets at their own home but we still make it a family affair. We make sure to drop-in frequently to check on them, feed them, let them out and play with them! Bella loves to hang out with our pet clients and play with them. Sometimes I bring a different kiddo to stay the night with me each night so that they all get a chance to give individual attention to the animals we are watching. We also watch over the house and property. At one pet sit, there was a storm that ran through and a massive branch broke into the pet parent’s driveway, front yard, sidewalk and street! After we notified the owners, Bella and I got it moved out of the way of the street and sidewalk so the pet parents didn’t have to worry about it until they got home. We understand that pet sitting is more than just watching the pets at home and we like to provide a holistic approach. My wife, Leigh also cleans and manages houses when she isn’t at home with our kids. She was the manager and trainer at a locally owned high-end home management company for many years. If you want your house cleaned or you have an organizational project you want completed while you’re gone, let me know! Leigh would be happy to chat with you, figure out what you’re wanting accomplished and get it done while you’re gone. She’s got a plethora of clients who continue to be impressed with her work and ask her to come back as proof of a job well done- so it’s not just my (possibly biased) opinion. 😉 I work as a school bus driver primarily so it leaves my summer & most major holidays pretty open! When I am at work my wife is usually home with some or all of the kids, so even when I’m busy- we have the ability to care for pets. I am pretty flexible but my main priority is making sure I am respectful of your space as much as I would want someone to be respectful of mine. Taking photos and communicating heavily with pet parents is top priority for me. If you wish to have less communication, just let me know so I don’t send too many cute pictures of your pets! I know what a big deal it is to leave my pets in the care of someone else and as a result, I take the responsibility very seriously myself.

“Jhoceline was great with our puppy. We were nervous at first to do doggy day care because it would be his first time away from our home, but Jhoceline really put us at ease. She kept in contact with us by sending pictures and updates everyday he was with her. She took great care of our little boy! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

About: After saying goodbye to our beloved Brady of 14 years, we are now empty nesters who have been dog parents for 36+ years. We currently have two "grandogs" who we continue to love like family. We know how hard it is to find others to love your dog like you do. We would love to provide that love and care during times you are needing to be away from them. We are retired, very active grandparents to 5 kiddos. We enjoy walks and playing outdoors, and would love to include a dog in both. Potty breaks have always been a routine thing for us, and something we are mindful of even on a lazy day inside. I'm a firm believer in a dog always having access to clean water, including those hot days when they are outdoors. Because we quite often have our grandkids around, we would want to ensure that your dog is comfortable around children as well as safe around children. We will honor requirements you may have for crating your dog, but we prefer to allow them to have free roam of the home. We do not have a fenced in back yard. However, neighbors on both sides of us our fenced in, and there is a 50+ foot patch of prairie grass behind our yard. Your dog will not be outside off a leash without us, if he/she is not well trained. We do have a large, covered deck with a gate to provide additional outdoor opportunities for your dog.
