Doggy Day Care in King-Irving Park, Des Moines, IA

“I took Ollie to Scott's place while I was in town for work. I cannot recommend Scott's place enough! Ollie had a GREAT time and I loved getting the picture updates during the day. Scott has a fenced in yard so Ollie was able to roam free, which I really appreciated. Having other pups there was a huge treat for Ollie as well. I will definitely take Ollie back when I'm back in town!”

“Baylie had a great time at doggy daycare! Samantha is great at communicating and sent lots of pictures and updates. We look forward to our upcoming boarding with Samantha!”

“Zero loved spending the day outside and in the pool! Such a tired pup for the day! Definitely having her come back again. I’m glad I found another husky house for her to play at!”

About: I’ve been working with pets my whole life, mostly dogs, and I have been trained in dog CPR and I know how to break up dog fights. I am currently working part time, so I have room for multiple animals! I do have 3 dogs of my own and 2 cats and all of them love other dogs. I have 3 friendly dogs that can keep your pup entertained and I can also crate them if needed. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I take all of my dogs out separately and on leash.

“Really enjoyed Jasmine's flexibility and willingness to work with our schedule! She gave great updates and our pup is tired (in the best way).So grateful she took such great care.”

“Emily is a great pet sitter! She has taken care of both of my pups and my cat on multiple occasions. Her home is spacious with room for my pups to roam inside and out. She is dependable, kind, and very caring toward my pets.”

“I have nothing but good things to say about Kaylee! She has been helping me for a few months now with my new puppy. She responds promptly, is ready on time for pick up/drop off, and is always so sweet and upbeat! I totally recommend her and her fiancé to take good care of your dog !!!”

“A true pet enthusiast, Shelly has been caring for our 2 dogs, cat and hamster for years! We never have to worry about them while away and are happy to know that they get to stay in the comfort of our own home and are in good hands. Not only has she taken care of our own dogs but multiple neighbors' dogs as well. Shelly really has a passion for pets!”

“Kayla is awesome. I trust no one with my puppy, I’m an extreme helicopter mom and worry constantly. She kept me updated with pictures all day which was really comforting, I always felt at ease. Her times were very flexible with my work schedule and I couldn’t be happier I left him with her! Thank you Kayla!!!”

“Our Golden boy, Yaz, had a great time with Evan and his family! Yaz is very much a family dog, so he adjusted well to the loving family environment at Evan's. I have now booked stays for 2 different dogs at Evan's, both of them were well cared for, and I trust him and his family implicitly. Highly Recommended!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, including senior and special needs dogs. Growing up my family ran a doggy day care so I'm also comfortable with any and all dog breeds and sizes. I'm on a hybrid schedule at work so I will be home all day during every other week. I am available on weekends as well! I have a small fenced yard and will provide daily walks. Our home has 2 playful pitbulls who love to be friends with everybody. We have space to kennel and separate dogs if needed.

“Christy has watched our dog numerous times and Sugar just loves her. Sugar is kind of a needy gal but she gets all the love and attention she demands from Christy! We use her often and have never had a problem or any concerns.”

“Kiara is my go to gal when it comes to all my babies. she is so intelligent & goes above & beyond for all her babies & my own. she is constantly taking in foster animals & caring for them like they are her own. she is always exceeding my expectations when she cares for my pets. i get fun, goofy pictures & they are always VERY excited when she comes through the front door. you can tell they adore her.”

“Madison was the best! She helped getting our dogs picked up and dropped off without any hiccups, even when we requested pick up at the last moment. She was a life saver!! She shared lots of pics with us and provided updates often. Her space looks amazing and our dogs seemed to have the best of times. Her personality is very sweet and give out the best energy. I instantly felt like my dogs were going to be in good hands. I look forward to keep working with her ❤️??. Thanks Madison! Love the Sayasanes.”

“Max had a great time staying with Crystal. He got to play with the neighbor dog, the cat, and her kids! He had plenty of entertainment for the day and felt very comfortable staying with them. We will definitely send him back.”

“Lisa was great watching my two pups. We came from out of town for the Iowa State Fair and felt comfortable leaving our dogs with Lisa. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She treated our dogs as if they were here own. She sent lots of photos and ensured us they were in good hands. Would recommend!”
