About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life, adopting my first pup at 16. Now, I’m the proud owner of two dogs—a playful 8-year-old Yellow Lab and a sweet 3-year-old German Shepherd rescue. Animals are my passion, and my dogs are truly my fur babies. I’d love to treat yours with the same love and care! I'm currently working part-time and pursuing online schooling to become a nurse practitioner. Between my love for the outdoors and my passion for pets, I thought this would be the perfect way to take a study break. I’m usually available afternoons, nights, and weekends—though I’m a night owl, I’d happily rise early for some fun pet playtime! I have a fenced-in backyard where my dogs and I love to play fetch, and we’re also big fans of daily walks and tug-of-war. I’m up for any game your pet enjoys—and I’ll even let them win every now and then for extra fun! If your pet prefers a more laid-back vibe, I’m more than happy to join them as a fellow couch potato for some quality relaxation time!
About: I’ve cared for all types of animals my entire life and had been working in a clinic for just under one year. I love each animal as my own and can’t wait to build a relationship with your pet to help keep the safe, happy, and healthy!! I work part time in fast food currently, I have a ton of free time to play and take care of your animals. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to make more time for your pet if I am let known in advance. I very much believe in listening to your pets signs and cues, letting them decide if they are okay with the situation. I want to keep myself, your pet, and you as safe as possible!!
“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.”
About: I am passionate about animal care. I love to clean and make sure everyone in the home is as happy as can be. I will treat your pet like a member of my family. I am available through the end of the summer. Until then my schedule can be very flexible. After that I will only be available on weekends. I like to respect the animals space and not be disrespectful to a stranger in their space. Some animals can be more anxious or have certain needs of care that I’m happy to provide.
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.

About: I currently have a cat and grew up with a small dog, but I’ve always had a soft spot for big dogs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’d love to have a dog of my own, but my apartment isn’t quite the right fit right now, so Rover is a perfect way for me to spend time with animals I love. Whether it’s a walk, some company, or just making sure your pet feels at home, I’m all in! Since I’m off for the summer, my schedule is pretty wide open and super flexible. I’m available for daytime walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays — whatever works best for you and your pet!

About: I've had dogs, and cats my entire life, whether it be the family pets, or my own. I've had and taken care of cats, and dogs. My girlfriend and I currently have two dogs, Harry a 2 year old Husky, Chow, Terrier, Poodle mix. Oliver a year and a half year old Golden Retriever. Pet care is a LARGE part of my day to day life. I try and give my dogs at least one walk or trip to the dog park every day. Our dogs are part of our family. They're very sweet, and loving. My girlfriend and I do not live together so they stay at both of our houses throughout the week. At my house, where I will be boarding clients dogs is partially fenced in, but when outside the dogs are always supervised and tied. I generally stay outside with them while they're outside because I don't think I can be too cautious when it comes to their safety. When it comes to a clients pets, I would be just as if not more diligent. As mentioned, I do have two dogs of my own, however when taking care of clients pets, my dogs will stay at my girlfriend's house to eliminate any possible conflicts. If hired to go to a clients home, I am happy to accommodate whatever instructions and routines they have for their own dogs or cats.

I can give them all the love and attention in the world or let them be depending on what they prefer. I am also decent at obedience training and win pups over pretty quickly. I love running, hiking, and being outside so I’m happy to burn off some energy with them if that’s required.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was brought home from the hospital. I’ve cared for Great Danes to Shitzus. I never discriminate against breeds. I’m a pre-vet student here to provide pet care for all animals and owners. I live in the Cedar Falls area and go to school at UNI. I have a very flexible schedule and am available for long sits and repeat scheduling. For most dogs it is better to keep them in the place they are most confident. Anything you need just let me know.

About: I am a college student and love pets. Currently living in Waterloo. I have had a few cats growing up and still have 2 dogs back home. I currently have 3 cats and are my fur babies! I have not only played and taken care of them most of my life, but also have helped train service dogs at Retrieving Freedom as a part of one of my college classes. Giving them food, baths, and bringing them on long walks, or to a park to play are all things that I have experience with due to being a pet owner myself. I am currently a graduate student and looking for a part-time job. Watching and caring for pets would fit well into my schedule as I have most early mornings, some afternoons and most evenings free. I am a full time graduate college student and looking for a part-time job. Pet sitting works well with my schedule as it changes every semester. I make sure I obtain as much information from the owner beforehand and do meet and greets to ensure safety for when I care for their pets.
About: I’ve cared for a bulldog for the last 9 years taking her on walks, feeding, and playing with her. I love interacting and being around animals. I am a very active highschooler and love to go on walks on the daily so bringing a dog along would be a perfect fit for me. I take care of dog daily feeding her, playing fetch, and taking her on walks. I also have chickens of my own that I take good care of as I treat them as a pet by cleaning their bedding, keeping water full and feed.
About: I've been pet/house sitting professionally with a company for about 2 years. I have a few years of experience working in the pet industry (dog daycare/boarding/parks) as well. I have lots of experience working with dogs of many different sizes and temperments, so I know that each dog is different and can cater to various needs. I also have a 9yr old lab and two cats at home! I love all animals, so if you have more than just dogs in your home, count me in! My schedule varies week to week, but I am very flexible! I still petsit for a company, but usually have some free time to fit some more visits in :). I am a college student so I don't have any dogs of my own, eventhough I wish I could, but if I were to care for yours I would follow any instructions given and provide them with lots of love and excersize!
About: I have experience with puppies to senior dogs. I love walking, and walk my dog approximately four miles a day. My energy matches that of a youthful pup! I’m an early riser, so I can get your dog ready to take on his/her day with healthy exercise! Most weekdays are spent at home, so I’m happy to visit and/or walk your pet to tire him/her for bed. I am a full-time working Mom, but can help care for your pet with advanced notice. If you don’t mind my kiddos tagging along, I have two extra pet-lovers who’d love to lay on some more snuggles and playtime! Dogs always stay on leash during walks and space is maintained from other walkers.
About: I've had multiple jobs now working with all sorts of different dogs! From puppies to elderly; crazy to lazy. Plus everything else in between. I've worked at a shelter, bathing dogs, and currently a doggy daycare, so I say I've got my far share of experience. I work full time at a doggy daycare, but I am more than capable to stop by before work, during my lunch break, and anytime after work. The 2 dogs that I have take multiple potty breaks throughout the day and get plenty of time to take in the fresh air and roll in the grass.
