“Erik did a great job doing drop-ins for our cat! He communicated regularly with us and was very easy to work with & there were zero issues. :) I'd recommend him!”
“Jena has done it again! My kitties were so happy to have her here that it was like they never even missed me! Jena is a sweetheart and always reliable. Can't recommend highly enough!”
“This was our second time using them to watch our animals, they just watched our cats this time & they did a great job! They regularly kept us up to date with pictures & took the time to give them some lovings & play time on top of keeping the litter boxes clean & feeding them. They're definitely one of our regulars now that we'll always trust with our babies!”
“Amanda took great care of our little old man, Oscar! We’re so grateful that she cleaned up after him and made sure he got his daily probiotic. We would absolutely recommend her for cat sitting.”
“Landon was wonderful with our cats! On his first visit, he went out of his way to spend extra time with them and made sure they were well cared for. He cleaned the litter box daily and was even kind enough to take out the trash. We’ll definitely be using Landon again!”
“My cat is usually very shy and takes several meetings to come to new people but I could tell he took to Jeanette immediately in the photos which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was on a long trip. When I returned home he was happy and stress free so I know Jeanette took wonderful care of him.”
About: Dani and I own & operate Love For Your Pup. We are huge fans of pets, scratches, and snuggles so your pup will be the recipient of plenty of attention. Every K-9 has a different personality, and Dani loves to get to know each one we care for. More importantly, she loves making our guests feel like they’re at home by providing lots cuddles, play time, and even a relaxing bath and nail trim (additional fees apply). Our work schedules afford us significant time at home, so rest assured, your pet will get plenty of attention. Our aim is to provide a loving and safe environment for your fur baby to relax and play while you are away. When we’re not at work (Dani works 5 hours a day away from home), we’re at home and include our pups and furry guests in our daily routine. We tailor meal times to your normal routine to help reduce stress. We offer early and late pick up and drop off options to make it as convenient as possible for you. Schedule your pick up or drop off between 6am - 10pm. DROP INS: Please note our service area. Visits outside of our service area may still be accepted but will be charged an additional $0.65 per mile. We have 5000+ square feet of fenced space that your furry friend can roam or a 10’ x 10’ outdoor kennel for pups that are less social and/or prefer a private nap area. We keep our gates locked, monitor our premises via multiple indoor and outdoor security cameras, and maintain a remote monitored alarm system for your furry friend’s security. You are welcome to bring toys, a blanket, pillow and/or anything else to help them feel at home. Last but certainly not least, we’ll gladly send you pictures during the stay to help ease any separation anxiety you may be experiencing and even provide a link to a shared drive with all of the photos from their stay.

“I left Kota with her for the day while at work and she kept me updated and made sure to give him attention. I got picture and video updates while at work and had an easy drop-off and pick-up. Would definitely recommend her and go back to her in the future!”
About: I have owned pets my whole life. My two Bernese Mountain Dogs both recently passed and I would love to care for your pets as I get over their loss. I work 7:30-4:30 in Hiawatha Monday-Friday with a 1 hour lunch for letting the dog out at noon, all my other time is available before and after work. I am not currently offering in-home pet care. Will update if this changes in the future. No pricing has been provided for this particular service.
About: I have always been with animals when I was a kid and everyone counted on me to take care of their animals. They trusted me. I work full time Monday through Friday. Open on the weekends. Message me about times due to my hours are different on Tuesday & Thursday. I have a friendly neighborhood, family is nice, own one dog that is friendly, loves to play. Great environment. Big open place to run around.
“Mellette was so patient and great with our cats while we were out of town. She encouraged them to spend time with her without overwhelming their space. She let them get used to her at their own pace. We loved getting daily report cards and photos from Mellette. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve had a dog in my life since the day I was born. I love to spend time with dogs by going for walks or car rides (if the owner allows it of course!) I have a cat and a dog of my own that I care for daily. All the usuals like feeding, letting outside, cleaning the litter box, but I also love to take my dog for walks and car rides or play with her in the back yard. I have so much fun playing with my cat and just giving him love! I’m usually very good about being able to let dogs out every couple of hours and love to hang out for a while to keep your pets company while you’re away!
