Dog Walkers in La Porte City, IA

About: Hi! My name is Danielle and I can't wait to meet your four-legged fur-baby. :) I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past three years, I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. Plenty of feline experience too! If you have an athletic or active dog, I am the host for you!!! Trips to parks (on and off leash), and visiting nature trails are my jam. If your dog is less active, I can bring my activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable. I work full-time from home, but I have a flexible schedule to care for the needs of your feline or canine. For any scheduling concerns, reach out and let’s start a conversation. I live in a farmhouse with a few acres of land, so I offer lots of running around and play time! I always keep the water bowl full and am always willing to offer your pet a bath (if you'd like.) My main priority is a happy and healthy pet for the duration of care while maintaining your peace of mind with plenty of updates and pictures. If I sound like a good fit for your fur-baby, I'd love the to meet y'all and let's play fetch! Please note, I only board one family's pet(s) at a time unless discussed otherwise.

“Amina was super flexible and squeezed my puppy in her schedule, and on very short notice! She also snapped some cute photos of them outside, he looked like he loved it. So glad i reached out to her will definitely be using her in the future :)”

About: My family has had dogs my whole life. A couple years ago, I started professionally dog sitting and I greatly enjoy it. I'm patient, I learn each dog's personality, and I make sure they have a safe fun time. I currently balance different self-scheduled gig work. Having no set or minimum hours, my time is highly flexible. I can schedule to fit your needs. I keep a careful eye on pet behavior and surroundings. For yards, I make sure fencing/gates are secure and keep an eye the dogs. For walking, I ensure leashes, collars are comfortable but very secure and tied to my arm as a back up. I keep a bottle of water. I can walk fast and keep pace but also encourage the dog to not wear themself out.

About: I’ve cared for all types of animals my entire life and had been working in a clinic for just under one year. I love each animal as my own and can’t wait to build a relationship with your pet to help keep the safe, happy, and healthy!! I work part time in fast food currently, I have a ton of free time to play and take care of your animals. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to make more time for your pet if I am let known in advance. I very much believe in listening to your pets signs and cues, letting them decide if they are okay with the situation. I want to keep myself, your pet, and you as safe as possible!!

“Baylee is AMAZING! She was able to meet with me right away, and fit Winston in next day. She worked around my schedule and made me feel super comfortable. Listened to all my worries and made me feel so much better having a sitter. Winston absolutely loved her :) I wil definitely be re booking with her for any of my needs.”

About: My name is Meagan and I have loved animals from the beginning of time. I have a rottweiler named Karl and a pit mix named Roman, so big dogs don't seem to phase me. I am in the process of getting my animal science degree from Ellsworth Community College with dreams of vet school in the future. I have a background of dogs of all sizes and ages as well as cattle and equine. I have watched family friends dogs for years, so I have a lot of experience when it comes to animals from other homes. I have never met an animal I didn't like and I'm not about to start now. I look forward to spending time with many more animals that will enter my life in the future.

About: I have taken care of dogs on and off for 2 years now, and have decided to make a more permanent space in my life for it. I love all doggies, and cannot wait to meet your sweet fur baby!

About: Been doing this for 7 years now and absolutely love it. I take in all sizes and breeds of dogs and have recently fenced in my backyard. Your pets will get the best 1 on 1 care at my house. I work full time during the week. The dogs will have free run of my upstairs or if you prefer they be in a kennel I can accommodate that too I recently fenced in my backyard. Huge play area for the dogs to run and play . I will provide the best 1 on 1 care for them

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was born. We are currently training a "super mut", Pudge, who is turning into such a good boy! Being around animals brings joy to my day. I work full-time, but remote four days per week and have a flexible schedule throughout the day. I love to walk! I am flexible throughout the day with my full-time, remote job schedule. I am happy to take care of pets throughout the day from early morning to evening. Lots of walks and play time in this house! I currently have a high-energy dog, so there is never a dull or still moment! Each dog is different though and I am willing to flex to fit the dogs needs.

“Tiara helped us out with a last minute dog walk while my partner and I would be out at work for 12 hours. Serious life saver! She is so so nice and very caring. She sent the best photos and even texted another update after she left to assure us all was good. 10/10 recommend ? Booking again for sure! ❤️”

About: I have taken care of different animals growing up dog sitting, and dog walking is what I normally did! I love going on walks with dogs combines my two favorite things, the outdoors and animals! I have two other jobs but don’t work full time, I usually have a couple days off. When I’m off i like to be outside and doing things! I help make the animals feel safe! I know how some animals can be with their parents gone and it can make them feel scared or abandoned. So being there with them and playing with them can help calm that sense of abandonment!

“Tee-Tee was EXTREMELY accommodating after the first walker I booked became unresponsive HOURS before I had to leave for a work trip out of state. Tee-Tee was on time, very communicative and through the pictures & videos she sent, I could tell my dogs already love her! I definitely will be using her again!”

About: I’ve been around and taking care of dogs and cats my whole life! As a child I helped neighbors when they were out of town. I have several pets at home I take care of. I walk my dogs regularly and want to help busy families feel less stressed out! I can come to your home to let your fur babies out and/or walk them while you are at work or out of town. I will play with them and spoil them in your absence!!

About: My name is Brittany, I have recently transitioned to working from home. I have a very flexible schedule, which means that I have open availability for walks or drop-ins and will be able to be with your dogs the entire time they are in my care! While I have just started out on Rover, I am still an experienced animal caretaker. Previously I have worked with horses, dog sat in college as well as for family and friends. I treat all animals just like they are apart of my family, this means they sleep in the bed, are allowed on furniture, and are given plenty of love and affection. My dogs and I also love to go on outings to the park, hikes, biking, find water to play in, as well as walks around the neighborhood. I have experience with dogs of almost any size and would be happy to welcome your dog to my family while you are away. I work from home, so I have open availability. This means I can do walks or drop-ins whenever needed. If your dog is in my care while being boarded, at doggy daycare, or house-sitting, I will be with them the entire time! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a long line to allow your dog freedom to play in the yard. In my home we have rest breaks around meal times, and dogs will be separated for meals and to have personal time to themselves. I do have kennels if your dog prefers to sleep in a kennel while in my care. But my two German Shepherds love other dogs and would be happy to invite other dogs into our home. In a client's home I will go off what their schedule is so they have their normal day. I will treat your home just as my own and will leave it in just as good if not better condition than what I found it.

About: I have had many dogs, cats, and other animals in my lifetime, including senior dogs and have a very well trained puppy myself. I have plenty of experience with training and patience. I am available during the following times: Monday - Friday (all day availability, unless have a commitment in advance) Weekends (all day availability, unless have a commitment in advance) I am very patient and compassionate for animals. I have a dog of my own with a lot of anxiety, so I know how to care for similar things. I would love to take a walk in your neighborhood, play with their favorite toys, and give them extra love and comfort.

“Thanks for doing such a wonderful job in such short notice!”

About: I’ve had experience with many different breeds of dogs ranging from chihuahuas all the way up to Great Danes. No matter the size or breed of dog, I will treat that dog as if it were my own. I’m currently working part time until I go back to school next semester, so I’ll have many opportunities throughout the week to walk or watch dogs. I’ve got a dog of my own, so I know that a safe and fun environment is a very important factor for our fur babies when they’re being watched.

About: I am a fun, loving 23-year-old who has owned and cared for a lot of pets growing up. I raise dogs so I have been exposed to all ages and stages of puppies. I also have and still occasional work as a vet tech so I am comfortable with lots of breeds along with cats. I am comfortable with injections and administering medications if necessary. I am a stay at home mom looking to spend time with my kiddo. I am looking for families. I have 2 miniature Schnauzers that live full time with me. I will be flexible and am willing to work with you and your pets needs. Feel free to message me with any questions. I will get back with you as soon as possible. I am free most week days, but like to spend time with family and travel on the weekends. I am free most times of the day working around my daughters naps and feeds. I will be able to do drop in visits to feed and water your pets, play with them, or take them potty on a leash (unless yard is fenced). I am also comfortable taking walks if weather permits.
