Cat Sitting in Ladora

“Our cat Misty had an unexpected medical condition come up shortly before we were due to be away in MN for our wedding and she required a pill twice a day. Ali was able to drop in to give Misty her medicine, some love, and us a piece of mind so we could enjoy our special weekend. We appreciated how easy she was to work with, her knowledge of animals, her communication with us when we checked in, and of course the pictures she sent of our baby.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cat since I was eleven and started taking care of lizards and gecko's when I turned nineteen. I have worked in a doggy daycare in the past. I have taken care of and have a geriatric dog right now. My past dog how to wheel chair and medications. So I am confident to handle that. I work Monday through Thursday at a Dr's office. So I am able to take care of your animals morning and midday and afternoon and night. I have a fenced in yard. I am comfortable with taking a dog to the dog park. I am confident in long walks. I know a few tricks to get animals to eat their food because sometimes they are stressed with you leaving. I am very confident in a wide variety of animals.

About: What sets me apart is my experience with a wide range of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also reptiles and small pets. I’ve spent years fostering, pet sitting, and walking dogs of all breeds and temperaments, which has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior and individual needs. Whether it’s helping a shy rescue feel safe, caring for an energetic puppy, or tending to the unique needs of a senior pet, I’m patient, observant, and dedicated to making sure every animal feels comfortable and cared for. I treat each pet like my own—with plenty of attention, structure, and love. I currently care for animals full time, I run my own small rescue, and it gives me full flexibility to care for your animals like they are my own! Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or taking them out for walks, my main priority is keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine—feeding schedules, favorite toys, and walking routes—so they feel secure while you’re away. During visits, I always make time for play, cuddles, and attention, as well as fresh water and clean-up. On walks, I make sure your pet gets the right balance of exercise and fun, always keeping their safety and comfort in mind.

“Jessica did an excellent job dropping in 5 times a day to take care of our crabby 14 year old toy poodle. She gave her medications 4 times a day and sent pictures regularly. We highly recommend her.”

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was born. My parents share the same love for animals as I do, and I think I love them more honestly! I’ve dealt with losing a pet, and adding new additions to the family. In my eyes no breed of dog or cat is superior and I would love to meet all the pets I can!! I work part-time so I will put the days I am available into the schedule! On my days off I would be more than happy to take your dogs for walks or do drop in visits with dogs and cats! I also marked all days as available because my hours can be funky and I can sometimes work only 4 hour shifts. I take my dogs for walks frequently. They are a bit stubborn sometimes (especially my olde english) but after we get walking they love being outside! The summer heat gets to them both though, so I would love to get outside!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a little girl if I could save every dog in the world I would:) I currently have 3 dogs myself & I plan to get more. I love going to the dog park, cuddling, taking them on walks anything that’s has to do with them I’m happy:) they do basically go with me everywhere I go, they are what makes me happy & pushes me through the days, my love for dogs is unexplainable & I would love to take care of yours & give them my love too♥️ I’m currently working part time & I am normally off in the mornings by 10-12 I work super early! So I have all the time in the day to walk them & play with them & give them all the love they need:) I do start school November 5th 9-4:30 tues-Friday but I can always go over at night & walk them & we can always figure something out! I am pretty flexible! I currently have an apartment so your home they would probably feel more comfortable in & that’s all I want is for the pup to feel safe & loved♥️

About: I’ve had senior dogs, puppies, and the in-between. I grew up on a farm with cats, dogs, cattle, chickens, and ducks and currently have 3 dogs & 3 cats of my own - I’m definitely an animal lover, through and through. Your fur baby will be extremely well taken care of! I’m currently working remote with extremely flexible hours, so I’m able to care for your fur babies throughout the day and night, or whenever you might need me! I have 3 sweet dogs who are cuddle bugs, and 3 cats who just lay around and hang out. We love to take our dogs for walks, go hiking, play in the back yard, spend some time inside with our plethora of dog toys, or go to our timber outside of town to let them run around and play!

“Great job. Thank you”

About: I have had a pets my entire life, mostly dogs and cats. I currently have 2 labs and 1 golden doodle who roam the yard with our farm animals; chickens and ducks. They are kennel trained and wouldn’t be around customer pets. I have 3 kids who love learning and helping out with chores. They are in extra curricular activities but I would ensure a schedule with you before the time of watching your fur baby. My husband is home most nights and weekends (besides hunting seasons) and he works construction during the day. I am home most nights and weekends besides when I have drill with the Iowa National guard, I work full time with the guard. Our dogs currently have an underground fence but because we have one mischievous lab (Mayble) who likes to convince the other two to go on adventures, we kennel her and our youngest (Bailey, golden doodle) during working hours. Our eldest (Max) is pretty lazy and wonders our yard freely during the day and night without his collar.

About: Willing to walk and exercise your dog/dogs when you are busy with your life’s schedule. Here to help anyone who is unable to or just plain to busy to give your dog some needed exercise. With dogs and cats of my own, I understand the daily needs of pets. I am free most of the day every weekday. I have 2 children, 14 and 18, and 2 cats and 1 dog. With having 2 cats and 1dog I feel my home is a safe environment. I would like the client to feel reassured that I would always report any issues, and I’m open to feedback.

About: Animals have always been at the center of my life! I’ve spent the last five years working in animal welfare—four years in rescue in rural northern Mississippi and the past year in veterinary medicine. I’m pet CPR certified, trained in first aid, and experienced in caring for pets of all ages, from tiny kittens and puppies to senior companions. During my time in rescue, I met every type of personality—from shy feral cats to wiggly, energetic dogs—and I loved earning their trust. Whether your pet is outgoing or needs a gentler approach, I’ll treat them with patience, understanding, and the same care I give my own furry family. Caring for animals isn’t just part of my week — it’s part of my every day. Between working at a vet clinic full-time and spending time with my own pets, checking in on furry friends fits seamlessly into my mornings, evenings, and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. From double-checking doors and leashes to providing gentle, attentive care, I make sure your cats and dogs feel secure, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was just a little kid. I’ve always held a special place in my heart for dogs, along with small critters. Just recently I moved from Wisconsin, working at a humane society there where everyday I did all the basic care routines/evaluations for approximately 40 dogs. It was a blast, but I’d also love to slow down, and give 1 on 1 attention to the needs of each. I am currently a pretty free person, beginning my career of dog training, Bait’s Purpose: K-9. I plan my future around my dogs, and training. I care for pets however is requested by the owner(s), this just varies on what each dog is comfortable with. Dogs are in great care, however.
