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.

“Nia did a fantastic job with our 4 girls! A few of them are higher energy so it can get pretty crazy at times, but she handled it all easily. She was super flexible and willing to work with us to make the whole process as convenient as possible. Highly recommend!”


About: Hi! My name is Crystal. I'm conveniently located in Monticello, Iowa. Halfway between Cedar Rapids and Dubuque. I've been around animals my whole life, especially dogs and cats. I am experienced with a quite a variety of pets. Growing up, my parents had plenty of pets. Fish, dogs, cats, mice, rabbits, turtles, birds, guinea pigs, hamsters and even snakes! Currently my family has 2 rescued cats, Tanner and Alex. I am fun, reliable, trustworthy and detail oriented. I will provide your loved one(s) with the best care and lovings while looking after them. Pets are indeed a persons best friend! Because I work from home, my hours are very flexible. This also allows me to provide a bunch of attention for your pets and repeat help when needed. Communication is key for trust. No fensed in yard? I can easily leash your pet when needed. Your pets safety and environment is my #1 priority!

“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!”


“Couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my cats and dogs! Angela made a special effort to understand the routines and quirks of each of my animals. My dogs are anxious with new people and one of them likes to bolt. Angela was very aware and confident about working with these challenges. She’s a true ‘animal person’. I came home to a happy pack! 100% will work with her again!”


“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!!”


About: Hi! I'm Breanna, an experienced pet lover and proud dog mom to two amazing German Shepherds who are truly my fur children. I know how important it is to have someone you trust to care for your pets, whether they have paws or whiskers, and I’m here to provide just that—loving, reliable, and personalized care. Although I work full-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate as much time as needed to each pet, based on your family’s preferences. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages—from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets needing a softer touch. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with the care, patience, and love they deserve. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member—whether they purr, bark, or do both! 🐶🐱❤️ As a fur mama pet care is 24/7 at my house. There is always mud to clean up, coats to brush, and toys to shred! I will care for your pet as if they were my own and to the best ability as I can to ensure they are living the life you allow them to!

“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 love both dogs and cats like their my own. I have 20+ years experience with caring for pets. I have experience with walking, bathing, brushing, and playing with cats and dogs. I have a day time job Monday-Friday 8-4:30pm. I would be able to take the dogs out before work, and when I get home. My husband works from home 2-3 days a week and would be available to be home to take care of your fur baby during every Thursday and Friday. On the weekends, I am able to take dogs out at at least every 2-4 hours. Thursdays/Fridays, my husband will be helping me with potty breaks while I am at my day job. I do not have a fenced in area, but will take your fur-baby out as often as needed between my husband and I both. We will use a leash to keep your pet safe!

About: I’ve been around and taken care of dogs since I was young, All sizes from larger breeds to little dachshunds. I absolutely love it and it’d be amazing if I could make my love for dogs a career. My schedule is wide open—I’m available to walk your pup almost anytime! Flexible, reliable, and ready when you need me. Let’s get those tails wagging! I am willing to care for your furry friend in your home. If you have any details about your fur-baby you need to add, any special medications, etc. Always let me know.

About: Well to start off, my name is Caitlin and I've grown up with animals in my household all my life. I tend to make a very quick and deep connection with animals and I've volunteered for the Cedar Rapids Care and Control shelter. Tasks of volunteering were to walk the dogs, play with the dogs, and show the dogs to people who were thinking of adopting. I currently have 4 dogs and a cat and all of the animals I have owned were rescue animals. My promise to you is that I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own. People always say a dog is a mans best friend, but I say animals in general are more then that. They are family and every animal deserves to be loved on and taken care of.

“Belle was great watching my dogs, even if it was only for a night. Even wrote out report cards for them, which was a nice personal touch. Would definitely recommend her, especially since she has experience with all kinds of dogs!”


About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was a little girl, up until he passed away at 14, so I’ve learned a lot about dogs. I’ve also helped plenty of my friends with their dogs, especially my close relatives and their three Aussies in the past three years. 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! I like to volunteer on Wednesdays and occasionally have dance that night too, and Sundays I have church in the morning, so I’m very free. I am very adaptable, and willing to work with all sorts of dogs to make sure they’re happy and safe! I am a bit of a perfectionist and I will definitely make sure that the things you ask of me get done to your standard, as I want to make you and your pets happy!

About: Your pet's well-being is my top priority! As a seasoned dog sitter (3+ years) and vet clinic assistant/technician, I've got the skills and know-how to provide exceptional care. From snuggles to medical needs, I've got you covered! My schedule is Monday (3 pm - 8 pm), Tuesday to Friday (9 am - 6 pm) at the vet clinic, and Saturday (8 am - 12 pm). Your furry friend can come with me to the clinic for regular breaks or I'll visit your home during lunch for playtime and let-outs! Your furry friend's happiness matters! I'll work with you to maintain their daily routine, minimizing stress and maximizing snuggles. Whatever you need, I'm here for you and your furry friends!
