Doggy Day Care in Linden Heights, Des Moines, IA

“Rex loves going to daycare at Samantha’s. He really cries on the days he doesn’t get to go. Samantha sends updates through the day including pictures and videos. I never have to worry when Rex is at Samantha’s. I know he is happy playing with his friends and being spoiled by Samantha.”

“My pup is always so excited to go to doggy daycare! Scott and Jess do such a great job keeping her entertained and safe. They also send picture updates which I love to see! Couldn’t recommend enough”

“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!!!”

“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!”

“Cory has a very clean home! A fenced in yard! He’s very good with animals! He is very caring and great with animals! He is a very reliable person and communicative in all areas! If you were going to trust anyone with your pet, Cory would be the person!!!”

About: My husband and I love all dogs and look forward to having more in our home. We’ve both grown up with dogs our whole lives - all different types of breeds, shapes and sizes! I also previously trained service dogs and am prepared for all different types of dog personalities. I currently stay at home and can give your dog lots of love and attention. My husband also works from home and is flexible to help! Caring for pets fits easily into both of our schedules. I have a friendly, playful golden retriever who can’t wait to make new friends in his fenced in yard. As long as your dog is potty trained and not destructive, they don’t need to be kenneled in our house - but it’s also totally fine if you prefer to bring one.

“Where do I start, Jennifer is one of the most thoughtful, aware, compassionate, intuitive, patient and respectful human beings that I've ever met. Her love for animals is above and beyond. Jennifer has a special gift of tapping into each animal's individual characteristics/ personalities. She treats every animal as if it were her own and gives 110% when it comes to making sure they feel safe, loved, and fulfilled. I would highly recommend Jennifer to watch anyone's fur babies.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. Friends and family have relied on me for pet sitting whenever they are out of town. I currently work full-time Hybrid. I work from home Mondays and Fridays. During this time I can provide care specific to your pet and their needs. I can provide potty breaks every 0-2 hours at least. I have a giant fully fenced back yard and 2 friendly dogs. One dog prefers more to watch the other dogs play while the other dog loves to be in all the action!

“Maggie and Betty had a lot of fun playing in the yard, and I loved getting pictures from McKenzie during their stay. Thanks for taking care of my treasured pups!”

“She cares about animals deeply and goes above and beyond for any animal/s in her possession. No matter if they are hers or someone else's. She is one person i would personally trust to leave my pet with and not have to worry about them. You couldn't pick a better person to babysit or walk your dog or any animal at that.”

“My girl is currently wiped out on the couch she had so much fun with them for doggy daycare. Very communicative and kind on pick up and drop off.”

“100% recommend Jenny. Will definitely contact her next time we are in town! She sent photos of our pup while we were at a local event and we felt super comfortable with him there. Communication was great and she treated him like one of her own. Nox had a great day and enjoyed being a part of the pack!”

About: I’m the friend that’s relied on for training support. Puppy, Senior citizen, separation anxiety to adoptee experience; 10+ years. I’m passionate about learning new training techniques, implementing, and teaching. Every dog and companion deserves to understand each other. I have a 3 year old xl breed. Every day we focus on consistency and communication. I personally focus on the individual needs specific to my companions for the best life experience. From avid exercise to slow paced walks to muscle and joint massage and even reinforcing habits that create healthy confidence. I love paying attention to body language and understanding what it means for a companion as well as the companion’s caretaker and being able to provide comfort and training techniques based off of that. I can’t wait to be a certified dog trainer and help people understand there’s no such thing as a bad or impossible breed. It’s all about understanding, communication, implementation, and consistency. My goal is to keep your companions day as regular and consistent as possible. We will be on time for walks, they will get a lot of attention, I love animal body language so I’ll be able to build a connection with your companion based on their comfortability level, and I prefer to go by your rules. I understand no dogs on couches and I also fully support couch cuddles. It’s all about your companions happiness and well being along with providing ease and comfort for you and I will make sure to provide everything you need to maintain that. I chose a neighborhood great for king walks and close to downtown for easy access to greys lake. apartment that offered a dog park for comfortable potty breaks. And being right next to greys lake offers great adventures. I can crate if required, as I crate my 2 yr old for his safety. I encourage as many “rules” and your guidance to abide by to make your companions day to day as regular and enjoyable as possible. This is all about you guys and making your lives easy and comfortable.

“James is an outstanding pet parent. When I met James, he had a Labrador retriever named Albert. He had adopted Albert as a puppy. Albert was the best cared for pet ever! Albert just passed here recently at the impressive age of 14. He has also pretty pet sat for my Akita, Cash was a puppy mill rescue. I adopted him at about a year old and he was super under socialized and extremely fearful with strangers. James was wonderfully patient with Cash in giving him both the space and the nudges he needed. Rover would be fortunate to get James as part of your team”

“First time ever using this app and Lucia made it easy to book with her, nice and responsive! She sent me a video of my dog and that was comforting! Kona was happy and got to play her little heart out! Thank you so much!”

“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.”

“Alison is the best!!! We met through a recommendation from a friend and she has been nothing but amazing!!! I was scared to leave my baby with anyone because he is a pitbull and very active but the sweetest pup in the world! She has always done so well with him and he's always so happy to go with her. She sends picture updates to let me know he is doing fine and it is such a huge relief for someone like me who is over protective of their baby! LOL... Long story short I would recommend her with 5 stars 🌟”

“Shae has been an exceptional friend and I know she’s a great dog owner as well. I don’t have personal experience with her watching my dog alone but play dates and hangouts are always a good time! Especially for the pups. You will not be disappointed in your service.”
