About: I have been rescuing and caring for cats & dogs since I was 17 years old. Pets have a special personality that takes a special personality to care for them. I am also familiar with & experienced with giving oral & injection medications I work for the local school district Aug - June so I have summers off. But I have the flexibility/availability to care for pets year round My 2 dogs and 2 cats are very well cared for. We have a fenced in yard. The cats are not allowed outside but all are chipped and protected with flea and tick treatments. They are fed twice a day with occasional treats and water 24/7.

About: I have worked with and loved many animals throughout my life; gaining experience by working with rescues, shelters and non-profit organizations benefiting dogs, cats and horses in Iowa and Virginia. I have also worked in the pet care industry my whole life. I was a Pet Groomer for 10 years, have worked closely with trainers, supervised daycare & boarding, and have spent the last 3 years in Veterinary Medicine as a Veterinary Assistant. I currently share my home with 3 dogs and a cat. I often care for my parents' dogs; one of which is Diabetic & has recently gone blind. Helping her learn to enjoy walks again has been a great experience! I have experience in most aspects of pet care; dog sitting, boarding, basic First Aid, administering oral & injectable medications, grooming and training, and know that each pet needs a unique, gentle approach. First and foremost I believe in making your pet comfortable by sticking to their (and your) schedule as much as possible. By keeping feeding, walking & potty times the same, I can provide and calm and happy presence for your pet through a positive attitude and relaxed demeanor. I also enjoy providing enrichment for you pet through play, walks, games and treats. Pet care is my life! I am available most every day to help you keep your pets happy and healthy, and to help them thrive in their own, comfortable environment. From a walk around the block a couple times a week, to daily drop in visits while you're at work, and finally house sitting when you're on that special trip, I'm here to be that special friend your pet needs! Keeping your pet safe is my number one priority. From making sure doors and gates are securely shut, to triple checking medicine before it’s given and using an additional slip lead for walks and transport, nothing goes unnoticed!

“Casey is so sweet and is great with all animals. Even though I had her walking our dog, she gave attention to our cat too. Prompt communication.”

“Baylee is AMAZING! She was able to meet with me right away, and fit Winston in next day. She worked around my schedule and made me feel super comfortable. Listened to all my worries and made me feel so much better having a sitter. Winston absolutely loved her :) I wil definitely be re booking with her for any of my needs.”

“Elizabeth was extremely communicative and kind with our dogs! Our anxious dog who is very nervous around other people even warmed up to her enough to sit in her lap by the end of our trip.”

About: I love animals. I have been around a huge variety from farm animals, to reptiles, from birds to domestic pets. I raised lambs, volunteered at a dog shelter, and have my lovely horse to care for now. I love big dogs and think they are often misunderstood. I will always follow your care instructions and will keep you updated on your pet to ease your mind while you are away. I work 2 part time jobs. I work fast food and I babysit. I do not work on Sundays, but the rest of the week my fast food job schedule varies. I know on Thursday the week before what my next weeks schedule is and will never accept jobs that I know would cause me to not properly care for your pet. I don't offer services from my home, but I am knowledgeable to know how to crate your pet if needed, safely attach harnesses, and will check all doors and locks before I leave your property to ensure your pet doesn't escape. I will make sure all water bowls and food bowls are clean, and that water bowls are filled each time I leave.

“Great job. Prompt, dogs did well. Thanks!”

About: I have 12 years experience in pet sitting and pet care. I have also owned over 8 dogs and 10 cats in my 24 years! My family and I have fostered every breed, age, personality of dog you could imagine. I am passionate about caring for these animals the way they deserve! I currently own a chocolate lab, a bloodhound, and a Shih Tzu along with 3 cats. I look forward to being of assistance to you while doing what I love most! I am currently working in the mornings Monday-Friday. I would love to fill the remaining hours and days with what I am passionate about; caring for all types of animals and helping out where I can! My dogs love to run free in my yard and they get along great with other dogs, however I am aware this is not the case with all dogs. I like to get a full briefing on the type of environment that you like for your dog to be apart of. I am easily adaptable and prioritize both you and your animals needs

About: Over the past several years I have helped care for family and friend’s pets. I currently have 4 chaotic cats. I’ve always loved looking after our 4 legged friends! I am currently doing factory work so my schedule is a bit more limited. I am fully available three days of the week, and the other four I am available 3:30-10pm. I can walk dogs as needed, as well as provide the attention and play that they need. I am also able to ensure all the owners rules or guidelines are kept to standard.

About: I have lived with, and taken care of, a dog since since I was 8 years old! I have walked, bathed, and fed pets. I love dogs and I love to take care of them! I am currently a full time English teacher so I am available on during the summer & weekends to be completely dedicated to keeping your dog(s) happy, healthy, and safe! I will follow whatever instructions are supplied and do anything possible to make sure that your dog is comfortable and happy. I can walk, bathe, feed them, and/or more.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience and specialized skills. I have a background in animal behavior, allowing me to understand and address each dog's unique needs. I’m trained in handling both senior dog's and those with special requirements, ensuring they receive the best care. Additionally, I can offer enrichment activities to keep them engaged and happy. My commitment to creating a safe, loving environment makes all the difference in your dog’s well-being while you’re away. Dog care is a key part of my daily routine. Each morning begins a walk to get the day started right. I am available anytime your pup needs me. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on creating a familiar and comforting environment. I provide regular feeding, exercise, and playtime, ensuring routines remain consistent. I also administer any medications as needed and monitor their behavior for any signs of distress. Daily updates are given to the pet owner, including photos and messages. Additionally, I prioritize keeping their area clean and safe, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away.

About: My name is Meagan and I have loved animals from the beginning of time. I have a rottweiler named Karl and a pit mix named Roman, so big dogs don't seem to phase me. I am in the process of getting my animal science degree from Ellsworth Community College with dreams of vet school in the future. I have a background of dogs of all sizes and ages as well as cattle and equine. I have watched family friends dogs for years, so I have a lot of experience when it comes to animals from other homes. I have never met an animal I didn't like and I'm not about to start now. I look forward to spending time with many more animals that will enter my life in the future.

“Tee-Tee was EXTREMELY accommodating after the first walker I booked became unresponsive HOURS before I had to leave for a work trip out of state. Tee-Tee was on time, very communicative and through the pictures & videos she sent, I could tell my dogs already love her! I definitely will be using her again!”

About: I have lived with animals and taken care of them all of my life. As an adolescent, I had several dogs (sizes ranging from a chihuahua to a saint bernard mix) that I would frequently take on walks, clean up after, feed, play with, and overall care for. I also worked with a service dog trainer for about a year to train a dog I had in the past since she was three months old. I will be going to college in August, but until then I am completely free to watch, walk, or visit any furbabies at any time for as long as needed! (Starting May 25th, as I do not move to Cedar Falls until then) My cat is rather spoiled with hundreds of toys, constant access to food, and lots and lots of love. I understand the importance of socializing your animals to new people and other animals, and take it very seriously, hence why he is an absolute cuddlebug for everyone that meets him! I would make sure to give the same amount of care and attention to your pets. Spending as much time as they need to socialize, play, and relax, as every pet is different and has different needs!

I stay home with our little one so my schedule is flexible to fit your needs! We do have a kennel set-up so that your furbaby can feel it has a space of its own but we also have open doors when it comes to our home! We want your pet to feel the most comfortable during their stay with us!

About: I have always loved pets. Throughout my entire life, I have had both cats and dogs, and recently my family adopted a gecko from my stepsister. Pets have always been the center of my day, and I always look forward to seeing my little fur-babies, and taking care of them. With this I have been referred to many family friends to extend the love and care I have for my babies onto their babies. I will always take care of your fur-babies as I would my own. I also am very good at giving pets medicine, as I have done it for a few years now. I am a full time college student at UNI, and I love taking care of animals. Being away at college has made me miss my own animals, so I fill that gap by getting to take care and love other animals, and give other families peace of mind while away. I am super open to any environments, whether it be a fenced in yard, or a yard where I will need to leash the pups/kitties up to take them out. I will listen and obey any instructions the client may give, whether it be for respecting the pets, or respecting the house.

About: For the past 3 years I’ve house and dog sat my brother’s dog while he’s out of town. The summer of 2024 I nanny’ed for a family that had a large dog I was to care for. I also baby sat for a home, family, and Great Dane for a while. I love doing so and am excited to get to love on other’s pets! I work at Lutheran Services in Iowa as a full time family support worker. I work 95% of my days at home, making it easy to house/dog sit throughout the day! Saturday and Sunday I am completely free! I typically provide over night care when watching pets. I’m able to stay home most of the day which makes it easy to care for pets throughout the day and into the night!

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!
