Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Indianola Hills, Des Moines, IA

“Monica is the absolute best. I'm so grateful we had the opportunity to hire her and hope to have her back. Her notes about her visits were so fun and heartwarming to read. It was very clear our dog loved spending time with her and she did a fabulous job caring to his needs. Our daughters missed their dog and loved seeing and hearing what he got up to while we were gone. Couldn't ask for a better sitter to care for our boy. Thank you, Monica!”

“Jenevieve totally saved our vacation! I had originally hired another Rover sitter to drop in on our dog while we were on vacation. The other sitter didn't show up for 2 visits. Luckily I was able to book super last minute with Jenevieve and she is awesome! She was always there on time to take care of my dog. He is 15 and takes heart meds, so it's important that he gets them twice a day. She seemed to really care for my dog and sent pictures every visit. I was totally impressed with her attention to his care. If you are looking for a great sitter, look no further!”

“Very considerate, consistent with communication, and attentive to care details. My Kittens were well taken care of, would definitely book again. Thank you!”

“Katie was so good with my senior kitty! She played with her and sent lots of photos, and I could tell my cat was well taken care of when I got home. I would recommend Katie to everyone and will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”

“Our dogs are very picky about people but have warmed up so quickly to Grace. Off to a great start and she's been very flexible to help us out!”

About: I have raised dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, and chickens my entire life. I currently have a Pug and a Boston Terrier, both puppies. I work from home and can provide day care, over nights, walks, pop-ins, etc. I am right down the street from Gateway so if you need a place to drop your animal off on your way to work downtown, I make a convenient drop off location. Very flexible with times. Air conditioning inside, large fully fenced backyard, and walks daily. 24/7 availability for pet care so long as we communicate in advance. I work from home and can be available based on your needs. I am available for drop off and pick up any time. There are a few times throughout the day where I will be driving my kids to and from events. We can communicate and work around those times. I also have a keypad. Animals are watched closely in the home and kept inside the fence in the backyard under supervision. When on walks animals are always on leash and are one on one with me. Separate food and water bowls are used. My yard is cleared of excrement daily. All animals must be up to date with shots and worming and flea/tick prevention.

“Caitlin is a great communicator, and our dog feels very comfortable with her! Highly recommend!”

“Kaitlin is an AMAZING gal with soooo much love for doggos! Kaitlin is incredibly reliable and loyal. Kaitlin is that gal at the farmers market asking to let your dog, she is drawn to the love dogs give. My dog Blanch and I love having her join on our long walks, (blanch is also a BIG fan of our buddy Kaitlin.). Kaitlin is one of the few people in this world that I would trust to take care of Blanch.”
