House Sitting Marshalltown

“Thank You for Being Amazing! Amy always takes such wonderful care of our two dogs and guinea pigs. It means the world to know they are in such loving and capable hands when we are away. Her kindness, reliability, great communication and attention to detail do not go unnoticed. From the updates and photos to the extra love and care she provides, we always have complete peace of mind. Our pet crew absolutely adores her, and it’s easy to see why! In addition; she is incredibly respectful of our home and leaves it meticulous. We are so grateful to have found such a fantastic pet sitter and can’t recommend her enough! Thank you for everything you do, Amy!”

About: I love the energy of animals - particularly the playfulness, affection, and intelligence of dogs. I grew up with cats, dogs, and chickens and have cared for bunnies, sheep, and fish. Chickens, like dogs, stand out because of their unique personalities and the funny hierarchy in a hen house. I’d be happy to offer care to a wide variety of animals as I’m comfortable around all I’ve encountered, but dogs hold a special home in my heart. I’m self-employed and have been running my own online business for nearly 12 years now and I’m very flexible and open to your schedule. I am well-versed in the importance of timely, thorough, and thoughtful responses and attention to detail. I’ll be sure to respond to requests and messages as quickly as possible, and to stay in communication with my customers for the duration of my stay with your pup! When I’m not enjoying the company of animals, you can usually find me writing or cooking. I also love nature walks and any change to watch the sunset. Because I do travel, I can’t have a dog of my own right now, but I’d love to “get my fix” by caring for your furry friend! I can’t wait to meet you! I love starting and ending the day with a walk, and a dog is the perfect companion! My schedule is flexible so I'm more than happy to take their lead and listen to their needs. At this time, I can't host dogs in my home, but I would be delighted to house sit and care for your home and animals while you are away!

“Angie is our go-to sitter. We have a senior dog with special needs and 2 senior cats, one of which takes medication daily. We never feel the need to worry about them when Angie is watching them because we know they are in good hands. Our house is exactly the way it was when we left, if not cleaner when Angie is here.”

“Hailey is amazing to work with and communicates well so that you feel confident that your pet is receiving wonderful care while you are away.”

“Adrianne watched my high maintenance Kit for a long weekend and he absolutely loved her! We received updates and photos often. I can tell he was very loved when we were gone and it was so nice not worrying about him all weekend! Will have Adrianna stay with Kit again!!”

About: From keeping care of my family pets in the absence of my parents at a young age to spending late nights as a sitter for neighbors’ dogs, I have taken careful care of dogs in all shapes and sizes since I was twelve. I love snuggling and bonding with dogs, and I adore being there for them when their furball parents are unable to be with them. I’m a part-time worker at a hotel on Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I work the evening shifts from 3-11pm. On Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I’m available to spend time with your pups all day! I love walking, and I would love to take your dog on my daily five mile walk with me as a fluffy partner in crime. I strive to create a friendly and loving environment for the doggies I watch. By providing them with quality time such as walking, playing with toys, or simply lying on the couch together, I will give your pup a space of peace and care while you’re away.

“Sarah was an outstanding pet sitter! She took excellent care of our two Golden Retrievers and our cat, and it was obvious from the start that she truly loves animals. She was incredibly responsive, proactive with communication, and very organized and detail-oriented. She also went above and beyond by staying late on the Fourth of July to comfort one of our dogs until the fireworks were over. On an evening when she had another commitment, she coordinated with our neighbors to make sure our pets were still well cared for. We came home to happy pets and a clean house, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Sarah was accommodating to our schedule and made the entire experience stress-free. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter, and we'll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Our senior dogs tend to get really scared with new people and are high anxiety when we get home. This time was different - they were happy, calm and went right back to their normal routine when we got home. We had daily photo/video updates which was so appreciated. Highly recommend!!”

Jaime S.

“Overall, it was a great fit for my self and all of the animals.”

“Addison did a great job caring for my puppies. She sent pictures daily and comments about their activities. She kept me well informed of everything that I needed to know. I really appreciated her professionalism and expertise. I will definitely hire her again if she’s up to it. Highly recommend!!”

“Ceondra was great at communication, she clearly loves animals, and her day job as a vet tech provides an added sense of security. She was a great person to look after my lab.”

About: I am a veterinary student at ISU with experience pet sitting, caring for shelter animals, and clinical care. I am comfortable caring for pets with special diets and administration of oral medicine. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, and I have flexibility in caring for pets of varying activity levels. I can't wait to meet your fur baby! I have school on weekdays, but I'm available for walks during the lunch hours from 11am - 1pm. I'm also available after 5pm Monday - Friday and have full availability on weekends. Your pet's comfort is my number one concern so I have no problem coming to you or taking your pet to their favorite park. I'm comfortable walking larger dogs that pull the leash and explore or older dogs with limited mobility. My dog has a vestibular issue, so I'm experienced lifting pets to help them up and down stairs and getting into cars. I'm also experienced giving oral medication, clipping/shaving nails, and bathing.

About: Spending time and interacting with animals has always been a passion of mine. Over the years I helped my grandma run her dog sitting service, taking the dogs for walks and cleaning up the kennels. I also enjoy being outside and taking my own dog for long walks and fun trips to the dog park. My dog is a family member and I intend on treating yours the same way. Your dog will have a great time exploring the city and playing with others at the dog park. I hope to someday have my own place where I can board dogs just like grandma did!!! I spend 90% of my time with dogs and we enjoy playing with other pups at the dog parks, we are traveling nomads and look forward to meeting you My dogs live in my van with me Both are crate trained. I feed my dogs twice a day. They enjoy laying around the house being lazy. Going to the dog park to play with others is always fun too!!! We also enjoy walking

“Sam took care of our home and four dogs for a week and a half and did such a great job! She was great at communicating and sending photos, and you can tell she loved on the pups hard while we were gone! We will absolutely book her again!”

Carly C.

“Rover made this transaction incredibly smooth. Chrissy is exactly the kind of person you want watching your dogs. She texted us photos twice a day and let us know what was going on. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. Thank you. *****”

“Mackenzie did great taking care of my two dogs and my house for 8 days. One of my dogs had just had surgery before Mackenzie started watching them and she did great with post op instructions for my healing puppy. I would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and spent most of high school and college as the go-to pet sitter for my friends, family, and neighbors. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets and animals so nothing phases me! Now that I have a bit more flexibility in my schedule, I’m excited to get back to it. As a dog and cat mom myself, I know how stressful it is to leave your babies behind. Whether it's a quick walk, popping in for a welfare check, or house-sitting while you're on vacation, I promise to treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m also more than happy to accommodate quirky routines. For example, one of my own cats insists on playing a round of fetch every single night before letting us go to bed. Whatever your pets specific quirks are, I've got them covered! I'm currently working part-time so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care. I'm available most of the day and all week (including weekends) Even if your house has a fenced in yard I am always present and alert when if comes to letting pets out and playing with them.

About: I've taking care of my Aunts dogs since I was five years old and I really enjoy taking care of some of the amazing furriest friends out there I'm currently working full-time from Sunday to Thursday 6-2 so my only availability, is the weekends, or anytime afterwork are the best times for me. I have a year of experience working as an unarmed security guard, which is a bonus when it comes to protecting a house and pets too.
