Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!

Brad was amazing with our dog! He was incredibly conscious and respectful about maintaining any routines and training we had already established with our dog and was great with our sometimes unruly boy! I was very impressed with how communicative he was and took very well composed and extremely cute photos to send us! I would absolutely recommend Brad!

About: Caring for people and pets comes naturally to me. I worked in nursing for several years before leaving to care for my father full time.between that and being a mom giving love and care comes easy. I have 3 dogs of my own, all of which are friendly and love a bit of play time. I am a big believer in fresh air and exercise. Let's get those steps in for your 4 legged family member. I don't work a regular job, I care for my elderly father and do some side work here and there. So I am available for walking or drop in visits at a moments notice. I have a fenced in yard and food and treats at the ready. Many leashes and brushes and more. I have 3 dogs of my own that love to play with each other and yours too. I can also keep my dogs away if yours isn't socialized to others.

About: Hi, I’m Shane! Calm, steady walker who keeps things simple and safe. I’ve spent my whole life around animals, and I’m the kind of person who pays attention to the small things: body language, pacing, comfort, and routine. I like to consider myself patient, predictable, and confident, and that’s exactly how I approach every walk and visit. I’m available throughout the week and flexible with timing. If you want someone dependable who communicates clearly and treats your dog like an individual, I’d love to meet you and your pup! I currently care for multiple dogs and cats at home, so I’m used to feeding schedules, meds, crates, and different personalities. If your dog has special needs or quirks, I’m happy to follow your routine exactly.

I cannot recommend Kassy enough. My dog Roo is very shy and it takes a few extra steps for him to feel comfortable with someone. I am so thankful for her patience with Roo. She truly cares about him as if he were her own and for that, I am so grateful.

About: Hello! I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. I’d love to give your pet love, attention, walks, and treats! I am responsible, reliable, and tend to like all animals over most humans. 😀 My schedule is completely open and flexible! Your pet will be my main focus and priority. I’d love to get the opportunity to meet and care for your fur babies. I know how important it is to listen to the animals needs and dietary restrictions. I love playing with dogs in a fenced in yard, long walks with lots of sniffs, and cuddling/loving pets.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, of all shapes and sizes. I love all animals. I’ve grown up with working dogs, big dogs, feral cats, farm animals, and everything in between. I am always willing to go for midday lunch walks (in the Ankeny/Polk City area) or weekend check ins in the metro, while you are out and about being social. My husband works blue collar, so sometimes I have a lot of time to myself while he’s working, I’d love to fill in with walks at night or weekends in the Highland Park/Saylor/Beaverdale areas. Some nights he may even join if he’s home. I am always very cautious when going in for my furry friends for walks, making sure they are safe. I’m full of love and attention and energy to burn so I’d love a buddy. I’ve worked with highly trained dogs, and will honor any and all training your dogs follows.

I wish I could give even more of a tip (rover won't let me give more than 30%), but Monica did an amazing job today. My dog had an accident in the house and she cleaned it up even though she didn't have to. Words cannot describe how awesome Monica is. 12/10 would recommend to anyone.

About: Hi, I’m Carly! I’ve always loved animals and understand how important it is to know they’re safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether you need drop-in visits, overnight care, or house sitting, I’ll make sure your pets are happy, loved, and your home is well cared for. I’m responsible, communicative, and keep things clean and cozy while you’re gone. My schedule changes a bit week to week, so feel free to message me.
