Jessica is so kind, fun, and clearly is meant to be around animals in one way or another. My boys were THRILLED to see her every morning. She was helping me out as I’m dealing with cancer - her flexibility and understanding nature helped me trust her in my home and with my boys. Book her!

About: I have more experience in taking care of cats; however, I’m an active outdoors person who enjoys going on walks and spending time with dogs. I would be happy to learn more and see the great outdoors with them! I work full time for the State. I can easily attend mornings and evenings and, if close to the office, over the lunch hour. Weekends and every other Friday are also totally free and I am in Des Moines for them. For cats, I am big into ensuring that they are appreciated and taken care of. This includes playing, bringing toys, and ensuring their litter is clean and tidy. For dogs, I value their opinion of what toys they like and things they want to do. They should have a friend and feel listened to why their family are away.

Chelsie you went above and beyond to make sure my pups were treated with royalty. I have never seen my dogs get so excited to see someone, not even when I get home. Chelsie supplied lots of pictures of the walks and the most detailed summary which was always a pleasure to read. She really cares and extremely thoughtful, would never hesitate to book with her anytime I need help. Thank you so much Chelsie!

Noah has watched my two cats on and off for the last three years and he truly is the best. Not only completely trustworthy and kind, but he has such a gentle demeanor that makes me even more comfortable leaving him with my babies. I sometimes even get pictures and continuous updates to make sure that they’re always doing okay when I’m away. 10/10 would recommend Noah for any pet sitting needs.
