“Sonja was amazing! Our dog has sever anxiety and doesn’t trust very easily. She did everything in her power to make him feel comfortable and safe. She gave updated throughout the day and was very responsive if I had any questions. She helped adjust the dates when I accidentally booked an extra day. We’re so sad she’s moving away from Michigan we’d definitely book again. She’s very good at what she does and cares for your animals.”


“Thank you for taking such good care of my fur baby and communicating with me throughout your overnight stay. Definitely eased my nerves and I knew she was good hands! Look forward to booking with you in the future.”


“We have used Jessica to house sit with our dog the last few times we were out of town. This time our flights were delayed an entire day and she was able to help us and stay another night to make sure our dog was cared for. Highly recommend her services!”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I have experience with small dogs all the way to Bernese mountain dogs. Currently I have a mixed breed named Arlo that is full of energy. We love to go on walks and adventure everyday. Your dog will not be bored and will be loved like they are my own. Currently working full time with the ability to work from home if needed. I only live 3 blocks from where I work so coming home is no issue. I am a early riser so my dog gets plenty of exercise in the mornings to wear him out while we are gone. I would be able to watch your animal any day of the week. I have a nice size backyard that isn’t fenced in (my dog doesn’t need) but have a chain in case your animal needs it. I have a very nice crate if they prefer to lay or sleep in one. I am mostly outside in the mornings and at night so your pup will always be moving or can lay around and relax if that’s what they prefer.

About: I have dog sat all types of dogs biggest being a Great Dane and the smallest a Chihuahua. I am very open to dog sitting any dog! I am currently working full time at the college of dentistry but I get off work at 5 everyday and have weekends and holidays off. I live in an apartment so I wouldn’t be able to board your dogs but I am very respectful of someone’s home and will take great care of your dogs.

“Angela did such an amazing job with my 3 dogs. 2 bulldogs and a year old Great Dane is a lot to handle and she handled it with ease. My dogs were so chill and calm when I got home from my 7 day vacation. That tells me they were completely comfortable and well taken care of.”


“JeNeal was very accommodating last minute to watch our pups while we were away. She took great care of our pups and made sure everything in the house was in order when she stopped by-including our refrigerator ice maker issue leaving a mess in our kitchen! She is very easy going and we will definitely use her again for our next getaway!!”

“Angie was an amazing dog sitter for us!! She watched our dog, Rosie, and my brother in law’s dog, Kenobi, in our home when we were on vacation for 4 days. Angie came to our house prior to the sit for a proper meet and greet with the pups. It was clear how experienced she is around pets and the pups loved her immediately. Our dog Rosie is on a special diet which was no issue when we were away. Angie kept great communication and gave us daily updates with pictures of the dogs. I would highly recommend Angie!!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have grown up surrounded by cats and dogs. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me! I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and simply spending time with your sweet friend. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare, which gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Including pups who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra patience. I’ll do my best to create a calm and comforting environment. I’m happy to stick to their routine, give extra snuggles, or just sit with them quietly if that’s what helps them feel safe. I’ll also send regular photo and text updates so you can see how they’re doing and feel reassured while you’re away. Right now, I work part-time with a very flexible schedule. I currently work in the ICU at the U of Iowa about 24 hours a month and will soon be working an additional 8 hours a week at another hospital. I’ll also be starting nursing school in the fall, but outside of that, I’ll mainly be home and available. Whether you need help with daily care or overnight stays, I’m happy to come to your home to feed, walk, play with, or simply keep your pet company. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities and I’ll always care for them as if they were my own.

I’ve helped with potty training them, as well as feeding, watering, walking, playing ball with them. I’ve also helped with two litters of puppies! I do not have a job currently so I have much free time to spend with dogs and cats!
