Doggy Day Care Jordan

“This was the first time my dogs have gone over to her house and they loved it!! They loved hanging out with her dog and just being able to be around someone all day! She was very sweet and attentive to their needs!”

“They are so lovely! A massive yard for Ace to run in which he definitely needed. Her dogs are so friendly and playful. Her children are also very helpful and respectful in asking if they can give my dog one of their dog toys. Will definitely be coming back!”

“This family is so wholesome and adorable it feels like dropping your dog off in a Disney movie for the day. Angela took great care of my dog and is very responsive to messages. 10/10 will be using her again.”

“I'm pretty sure my dog, Frank, is currently petitioning for a legal name change to "Frank of Ames" after his stay with Katrina yesterday. We were in town visiting our daughter at Iowa State and needed a safe, fun place for Frank to stay, and we hit the jackpot. From the moment we dropped him off, Frank was already sizing up his new crew—Katrina's two incredibly friendly dogs—and planning his fun. The photo and video updates she sent were amazing, showing Frank living his absolute best life, running around and making new friends. Seriously, if you ever need photographic evidence that your dog is having a better time than you are, book with Katrina. Frank came home happy, perfectly exhausted, and now gives us serious side-eye every time we suggest a plain old walk instead of a dog playdate at her place. Thank you, Katrina! You made our trip worry-free. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Samantha is so great to work with! She follows directions perfectly and takes excellent care of all the (3) dogs we’ve had her sit for (doggie day care). She communicates effectively and timely and we never have to worry.”

About: I’ve taken care of fur babies of all kinds since before I could walk. I grew up with a dog and cat always in tow. I lived in the country, so learned fast that the world can be hard for an animal, thus beginning my rehab ‘career’. As I got older, I pet sat for neighbors and family friends. In my mid 20s I trained as a vet tech, prepping animals for surgery, giving vaccinations, nail trims, etc. Until the ISU Wildlife Clinic closed, I volunteered there, learning more care for wild native animals. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, I can’t imagine life without animals. I currently have a senior border collie named Lola, she has arthritis so sometimes she needs help getting around and I’m always willing to help my girl. I also have a senior cat. Currently I’m a doordash/grub hub driver, so I literally am free 24/7 to care for your pets! I will prioritize Rover over delivery, so I can work with any schedule you need. I’m available for repeat needs (several walks a week, drop ins, etc). I live in a duplex with a yard. For me to board a pet, they would need to get along with my dog, and she can honestly be a bit grumpy meeting new dogs, so I feel going to the client’s home would be best. I will respect your home and follow whatever instructions you have for the care of your pets.

“Mallory was friendly and responded quickly to emails. Lulu enjoyed her time with Mallory and the other dogs in her care. I will have Mallory watch Lulu again and would recommend her to others.”

About: I have cared for dogs and animals since I was 10. Family and neighbors alike have relied on me to take care of their animals, whether it was drop-in visits, walking, or daycare; I did it all and have excellent experience raising my fur babies. I love animals, and I cannot wait to make your life easier! I am a senior at Iowa State as a triple major studying English, Criminal Justice, & Technical Communication with aspirations of becoming a multi-genre author. In my downtime of not studying or working on being an entrepreneur, I give my animals lots of attention and make yummy paw treats for my fur babies! I am currently working at a different job from 11a-8pm Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri and Saturday. I am available for day care, on the weekends of Sun and Mon. I am available for boarding, drop in visits, dog walking, and house sitting any time. * It is always best to contact me first to ask me if I am available!! * When you choose me for your needs I will have plenty of time to care of your fur babies! I am dedicated and motivated to help you with your pet's needs and make your and your fur babies' lives easier. I have a fenced backyard and plenty of space for your fur baby to run around. I also have a lot of house for your lovely pet to play and relax in. I have a cat and a small adult dog breed for your baby to play with and have company while they are here for boarding or day care. I offer other services as well, so I try to make my home as comfortable and safe as possible for my personal pets and my clients' fur babies.

“I was visiting town for a work trip and was beyond impressed by the care and communication! My pup Barley is older and just had surgery - it was so wonderful leaving him without worry, knowing he would be extra loved and cared after during the day!”

“Orion is always exhausted after spending a day with Cameron. Cameron spends their time together teaching him and making sure he interacts well with the other pups. Orion is always excited to go to daycare!”

“Alex did a great job taking care of Pluto. We got a lot of snow and she was more than happy to play outside with her. She had excellent communication the whole time Pluto was in her care and sent photos and videos!”

About: I've grown up with pets my whole life - dogs, cats, cows, horses, hamsters, mice, you name it I probably had it at one point. I have a dog of my own as well. I like to say I've had animal experience my whole life, but formally I have had over 8 years of experience in the animal care industry. I have spent time in veterinary clinics, grooming, boarding, doggy daycare, dog training, permanent sanctuaries, rehabilitation facilities, and farms. I have also fostered multiple dogs from local rescues. I recently earned a bachelors degree in animal science and currently attend veterinary school at ISU. I really really love animals and everything about them, and I would love to spend some time with your pet when you're not able to! Pet care is built into my schedule and comes as second nature to me now after being immersed in it for so long. On average, a minimum of 3-5 hours of my day are dedicated to my animals. I enjoy taking my dog on multiple walks a day, of varying lengths, to ensure he has enough mental stimulation and exercise to meet his needs. Training is also a constant in my household, whether that be scheduled training sessions, or simply consistent work throughout daily tasks. I find it important to build a bond with my animals as well as those I meet, and training helps strengthen that bond. Outdoor activities (walks, meeting friends dogs, swimming, fetch, etc.) and training exercises are my primary methods of exercise and activity with my pet, and would be with clients pets as well. On days it's not so nice I like to work on training inside or find new enrichment activities to keep my pet occupied and stimulated. I take pride in keeping my environment and my animals’ clean, so I regularly bathe and brush my dog, as well as clean food and water bowls. I will care for my clients pets as I would care for my own.

“You should feel completely comfortable leaving your pet with Vickie. Great environment with a caring family !”

“Shweta was amazing with my three month old puppy. He looks forward to seeing her! Shweta took the time to chat with me on the phone prior and was great with any special directives for the puppy. It was a very easy and pleasant experience! 10/10 recommended! Definitely eased my mind while leaving him for the first time :)”

“Paige agreed to watch my dog on very short notice, which I appreciated! From my initial contact, her communication was great. During my dog's day with her, she sent photos and updates. When I picked up my dog, he was happy and tired. I think my high energy pup made a new friend with Paige!”
