What a relief! The last sitter would not turn his app on during his visit. It turned out he was visiting our dog hours later and staying 10 minutes. I am so lucky to have found Carly! She is fantastic and never shortchanges you or your pet.

I have to admit that I have really come to rely on Debora. She’s become part of the family and I’m confident my animals are comfortable with her and trust her too.

Samantha is the best!!! She is so kind and patient with my dog. She has helped me out when I needed someone to check on my dog when I’ve been stuck at work. When I know she’s coming I have absolutely no worries about my dog.

Gina is the absolute best. She has cared for my senior Boston Terrier for over a year and I have nothing but great things to say. She is so caring and gives me the reassurance that my pets are taken care of while I am at work. She even came over one day to comfort my dog during a thunderstorm. She has such a big heart and I truly appreciate her. Thank you, Gina.

Emily was great with Ruthie by adjusting plans so she still got exercise when refusing to walk. Nice way to get Ruthie what she needed!

Cassidy has taken care of our two dogs multiple times with the same love and care she would show her own pet. We don't like to board our dogs so when the opportunity came to have someone come into our home and take care of our pups we were thrilled! Our pups were much more comfortable staying home, they were able to play and keep their daily walk routine with Cassidy. She would snuggle them and hang out with them so they never got lonely while we were away! We even have one dog with a little "grouchy" temperament and Cassidy was able to get him comfortable with her, I am forever grateful for that! I would highly recommend Cassidy to any pet owner, she is hands down one of the best!

My dogs adore Elizabeth! My great pyrenees, while friendly, rarely let's strangers touch him right away and immediately let Libby pet him! She was able to control both my young german shepherd and my great pyrenees on a walk without issue. She even asked if she could bring treats for them that she bought herself. She made sure to put everything back where she found it and made sure that my black german shepherd didn't get too hot on his walk. I will definitely book with her again!!

I have known Christina since high school we are both huge animal people. She has always cared for her fur babies better than most and she has always taken care of friends and families fur babies when they leave town or just need a sitter. I trust this lady with my fur babies and I have trust issues , trust had to be built and maintenaned . Christina is a honest trustworthy person she has always been a good person would good values . She is an active person with her pup so she will be a good fur baby sitter/walker because she loves to do that stuff anyway especially with fur babies ☺️

About: With six years of experience in dog boarding, training, and daycare alongside three years of experience in veterinary medicine, I’m prepared to provide a safe and prepared sitter experience for your pet. I come equipped with CPR certificates for dogs of all sizes as well as cats, knowledge of medications and their side effects and methods of administration; experience with insulin and diabetes in cats and dogs; fear free pet care certificates; and 30+ hours of experience in animal emergency hospitals to gain ER response preparedness for all species. To be sure my schedule fits your kiddos’ needs, included here are the hours I’m away in a week for work. Mon: 8a-2p Tues: 3p-8p Wed, Thurs: 8a-2p, 3p-8p Fri: 8a-2p On these days, pets still have play time and potty breaks over the lunch hour, as well as play time and care before and after work hours. Wednesday and Thursday are NOT ideal hours for house sitting. They may be appropriate for some cats, and offer adequate time for long morning walks, noon walks, and evening walks. Clients answer a series of questions to build a personalized experience for their furry family members: information about feeding times, medication routines, allergies, and illnesses is gathered to get to know your pet best. Your pet’s experience is kept as similar to your daily routine as possible to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress.

About: I have owned pets my entire life and have experience in caring for both dogs and cats. I am currently an animal science: pre-veterinary major and have a passion for taking care of animals. I am experienced in giving medications and following instructions from the owner of the specific ways they want their pet cared for. I also have previously cared for senior pets. I am currently a student athlete at Iowa State University. I am available for drop-in visits during weekdays and weekends. Additionally, I can do overnight visits on the weekends. I am flexible with my schedule, however, and can make accommodations for your pets needs! In order to care for your pet best, I will communicate with you on walking schedules, medications, and any other accommodations. I have experience giving medications such as pills, eye drops, ear drops, and ear cleaning solutions. I am more than willing to work with the owner on special care and welcome instruction.

My Shinoh was sick and even though her only responsibility was to walk him. Angela went above and beyond for my Puppy. She rushed him to the vet and made sure he was safe before leaving. Angela is amazing. Shinoh and I will always be thankful.

About: I’ve had my own cat for 3 years and my roommate used to have a dog that I helped take care of! We took naps together daily and walking her was the highlight of my day :) I work part time and my hours are different every week but I’m always free Monday, so Sunday nights are perfect for over night stays! I live in an apartment with two other roommates who love animals! I’m more than happy to keep my cat in the bathroom for the night if that would make your dog the most comfortable!

Sherrie is so compassionate when it comes to caring and thinking of the well being of animals in general, especially dogs and cats. She has taken care of my pet when I've been on vacation and there is NO ONE I would trust more than her. She would be an excellent candidate without question!
