Pet Sitting Jordan Park

About: Hello, my name is Tara! I specialize in moderate to high intensity walks if your pet likes extra activity, but we can also kick our feet up & people watch out the window! I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, where I developed a lifelong love and respect for them. Since I don’t have pets of my own right now, getting the opportunity to love and care for other people’s pets truly fills my cup. Feel free to message me or shoot me any questions! I work full time, so I can offer the following: Drop Ins 2x/day (over lunch or after 4pm) Walks 1x/day (after 4pm on weekdays & anytime on a weekend day) Whether your pet needs a long walk, medication, playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I will treat them like they are my own while keeping their unique routine and comfort a priority. I have experience with pets who are anxious, shy, or need a little extra patience when meeting someone new.

“Allison is always super flexible with my last minutes bookings & changes. It’s a huge weight off of my shoulders to know that my pup is checked in on when she’s alone at home all day!”

Rachel B.

“I loved this service. It was very comforting to see the pictures and reports with how Teddy was. Justus was very good with Teddy and even brought my mail and deliveries in while I was away!”

Eric V.

“Daniel always does such a great job taking care of our girl! The photos he sends while we’re away make it clear that our pup is getting love and having a blast. We’re so glad to have Daniel close by to help us out!”

Katie B.

“Jess did such a great job with my cat! Would definitely recommend”

Corey M.

“Rachel is amazing! Maybe a "cat whisperer?!" First time leaving my dog for more than 1 night. I loved the pics I got more than I expected! It eased my mind, so I could concentrate on my work trip duties. She gave great care & love to my 2 cats and 1 dog. Highly recommend! Good job, I will use again!”

“Kelsey visited my two kitties while I was away one weekend. She followed all the instructions and communicated really well with me before and during her visits. Loui and Lola seemed to warm up to her quickly. Reliable and trustworthy. Will definitely book Kelsey again!”

Ena B.

“Thank you so much Kaylee! Forgot to tell you I left some lights on and the TV. Hope everything was situated enough for you! Will reach out again sometime”

Brady S.

“Our kitties loved Tim, and they were very happy and calm when we returned home. He provided lots of play time for the younger cats, and lots of photos while we were away. I think they were disappointed it wasn't Tim when we walked in the door!”

Hillary S.

“Absolutely amazing! This was my first time trying Rover and I look forward to using it again! Christina was amazing and responded quickly to my very short notice request. She was loving and caring to my 2 cats and my crazy high energy German Shepard. 10/10 would book with her again and will recommend to any fur parents I know in the future!”

Codie S.

“Ashley is a wonderful sitter. She was great with my two cats! Oliver and Luci were well cared for. I will definitely be asking for Ashley to come back again.”

Liz P.

“This was my first time using Rover, so I was nervous to leave my pup for the first time. I set up a few drop-in visits and Vivian came over for a quick meet-and-greet the day before. Vivian was on time and stayed with Felix longer than the drop-in window for couch cuddles and goofy pictures. I'll definitely be keeping her in mind should I need to leave Felix home during future travels.”

Matthew B.

“Hanna is so attentive and great with Ole!”

Samantha G.

“Kayla was great! She was friendly and immediately loved on our cat during our initial meet and greet! She was prompt with her drop ins and kept us well informed while we were away! Her report cards were fun to read and she always included great pics to let us know the cat was well taken care of!”

Nate B.

“Kassy is very gentle and quickly developed a good rapport with our anxious rescue, Rio. She’s easy to work with and very flexible. We’re grateful for her.”

About: Dogs have always been in my life. I volunteered at Animal Lifeline for 8 years and had a dog daycare of my own for a while. Dogs are everything and I’d be honored to love on yours. I currently work full time from home so doggie day care is definitely doable! My day ends at 3 pm so I can be that late afternoon or evening potty break or walk. Weekends have potential as well with pre-arranged time and notice. Should your dog(s) stay with me during the day, I have a fenced yard and no carpet in case of oopsies! If you request that I come to your house I am very reliable, responsible and respectful. I can guarantee a boat load of scritches and belly rubs as well as time for “business”.

About: I’m patient, reliable, and experienced with both puppies and senior dogs. I know how to keep energetic pups engaged and how to give older pets the gentle, calm care they need. I pay attention to each pet’s routine and keep owners updated so you always feel at ease. I have Fridays off so I am available all day. I’m also available Saturday and Sunday as well. I am very flexible to make things easier! If I do take care of any pets it would have to be at the owners house since I have a 7 year old lab who is getting adjusted to meeting new friends.

“Molly did an amazing job looking after my 2 cats. She went above and beyond dealing with my difficult diabetic kitty. I can't thank her enough for all the tricks and tactics she did to get my cat a shot when he was being resistant.”

Echo D.

“William is a wonderful and very friendly pet sitter. He came to visit prior to the job and do a meet and greet. I was impressed with all his zoo background work and you can tell he loves animals. My cats were happy and he sent me a picture to update how they were doing. He followed instructions, and was prompt. I will be using his services again for sure. Highly recommend.”

About: I'm a recently graduated librarian looking for a job. In the meantime, I'm flexibly available for all petsitting and house sitting needs. I have been petsitting since I was a kid and I'm comfortable with all kinds of cats and dogs. The best friends I've ever had have been animals and I'd love the opportunity to take care of yours'. I live on the west side of Iowa City but I have a reliable car to get to work. This is moonlighting until I get a job as a librarian but could potentially last longer. My apartment building has a large dog park where we could hang out during the day. I have a middle aged cat named Toby who is shy but gets along well otherwise I was on hiatus for Rover for a long time but now have open availability and would love to care for your dogs and cats I follow safety precautions with every pet. I keep a close eye on them and am careful when walking them. If there are special safety requirements for your pet, I will accommodate them.
