Pet Sitting in Grundy Center

About: I have two dogs right now. One is a yellow lab and the other is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. The Spaniel is 3 and the lab is 2. So there is a lot of energy in the house. I have experience with walking them both while on camping trips, giving them baths, playing fetch and of course laying on the couch and cuddling. I also used to have an older Cavalier King Charles Spaniel so I have experience with all ages of dogs. I love to interact and give dogs all of my attention! I have currently just finished my first year of college at Buena Vista University. I am looking to make a little more money for this summer, and this job is something I know I would enjoy. I am not sure how my summer will plan out exactly yet, but I would love to make time and will be flexible! I live in the country with a 3 acre yard. There is plenty of room to run around and play fetch if needed. I also have two dogs on my own that are very friendly and playful, but can also be calmed if needed. I will respect your needs and wants as the dogs owner.

About: I've had animals since forever and I have worked with grooming and bathing as well as boarding dogs in the past. I love every kind and will care for them with extra love. During the summer, right now, I am available during both the week days and the weekends. I work another job from 8-1 pm so the afternoons work best for me. I will follow your rules or instructions on how you would like your animal(s) to be treated and when or how often you would like them let out if necessary and will treat them all with love.

“Dylan did an amazing job!! We were concerned about leaving the dogs at home alone for the first time, but after the first few check-ins Dylan took all our worry away. Knowing the dogs were safe and in good hands allowed us to enjoy our vacation worry free. We will definitely be rebooking with Dylan. We couldn’t be more satisfied!!”

About: Since a baby, I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, and reptiles. Not all at once, but I have always been a lover of animals of all types. I have been around animals with sensitive diets, tummy troubles, skin sensitivity, anxiety, and paw pain and know how to spot the warning signs for most common complications. Grooming, bathing, feeding, and exercise are all tasks I am deeply familiar with. If your pet has unique care instructions, trust that I will do my best research prior and will carefully ensure your baby receives the most comfortable stay. I am a college student currently. I currently live in a studio apartment near UNI and will be able to flexibly care for any animals of all types; sans very large dogs for space reasons. My time mostly consists of studying and trying to find the time to exercise enough, so you don't have to worry about a busy body! For my in home service, I am very meticulous about "leaving it as I found it or better than it was." Having military discipline, I am punctual about arriving, check-ins, and feeding/potty times. You can guarantee that any and all instructions relating to your baby or babies is closely followed and communication prompt when necessary. As for boarding or hourly stays, my home is their home. They are welcome to sleep or lounge where they like and accompany me on a walk around town or during a Law and Order binge. Belly rubs and butt scratches are always available round the clock!

“Jordan was great, came on short notice to take care of my cat!”

“Thanks for helping us out with the dogs while we were at the game! Allowed us to really enjoy it and not worry about rushing back. Much appreciated.”

“Tee-Tee overall is an exceptional at her job. She took good care of our dogs while we were away. We trust her coming into our home for the first time and she did not disappoint. Tee-Tee was not on the scheduled time that we both agreed upon. However she did communicate with me each time she was late to perform her duties. Overall I will definitely use her again because we are pleased with her service. :-)”

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)

“Angie was great with new little puppy! She kept me updated and Nala was worn out when we got home! She was accommodating and welcomed Nala right into her home!”

Sam G.

“Kennidy was great! It’s easy to tell she loves animals very much. She was on time and played with the dogs the whole time. Thanks Kennidy for stopping by!”

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. I have 6 ft fenced in yard, kennels, dog/cat beds, cat trees, toys and kids to play with them. My furbabies are family and are treated as such.

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!

“Great job. Thank you”
