Izabelle was absolutely amazing. She gave me daily updates with photos, which were wonderful. She was able to play with my cats, and despite them being shy they seemed very comfortable and loved from the updates I was sent. I would absolutely have her watch my cats again!

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life, and I have experience with dogs of all sizes and kinds, ranging from Pomeranian to Great Pyrenees. I currently have a cat of my own, and grew up taking care of cats of all ages. In college, I volunteered at a humane society where I worked on socializing cats and walking dogs, on leash of course, prior to adoption. There, I also learned how to prevent the spread of infection, both in a kennel and from home to home. I also have experience taking care of fish and poultry, doing water changes and chemical balancing, if needed. I'm currently a graduate student at ISU, so my schedule is very flexible to fit any schedule you require, including midday walks and drop-in visits. I am very detail oriented and will ensure the best care for your pet. My attention to detail ensures that any emergencies will be taken care of promptly, and your pet will get the most ideal care for them.

Amy is wonderful pet sitter. She is very responsible and punctual. Amy asked a lot of details about my cat and how to care about him. It was very easy to communicate with her - she sent a report about each visit (with photos) and responded promptly and in detail. I recommend her as a pet sitter.

About: I have been dogsitting, catsitting, and housesitting since I was in high school! I also worked for 3 years at a general practice veterinary clinic, working with animals boarding at the facility to provide them care. I have also worked 2 years in the ICU of the Small Animal Hospital at Iowa State, taking care of patients. I am currently working part-time, so I have lots of flexibility with my schedule when it comes to housesitting, walking your dogs, or any care you might need! I am happy to play with your pets, take them outside, and ensure they have company! I cannot care for pets in my own home (territorial cat, oops!) but more than happy to hang out in your home and ensure your pets are happy and taken care of.

About: I’m a lifelong pet owner and have experience taking care of both dogs and cats. Over the past six years, I’ve been responsible for feeding, walking, playing with, and providing general care and attention to my own dog. These last few years I’ve also pet sat for my family members and friends, taking care of their dogs and cats. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and ensuring that they feel well taken care of and loved! I am currently a student at Iowa State University, but everyday I have breaks or long stretches of time where I can drop in on and take care of your pets! I always ensure that I go over with any rules/boundaries with clients and to ask about any additional care towards the pet (like administering medicine). I like to know whatever works best for you and your pets!

I do also have afternoon and nighttime availability thought out the week on occasion. I provide personalized care for your pets by sticking to their routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs they have.

About: With over a decade of experience caring for dogs, I know that every pup deserves patience, love, and plenty of tail wags! Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just a cozy companion, I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, administering medications, reinforcing good behavior, and making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. From energetic adventures to gentle companionship, I’ll treat your dog like family, because that’s exactly what they are! Right now, I am a college student completely online making weekdays completely open, giving me plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I have a flexible schedule to meet their needs. Starting at the end of May, my availability will expand to include weekends as well, making it even easier to accommodate your pet’s routine. No matter the day, I’ll make sure your furry friend gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve! In my home, dogs are treated like part of the family! While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I make up for it with plenty of long walks and outdoor adventures to keep your pup happy and active. I also have a friendly cat who loves dogs, making for great company if your pet enjoys socializing. If crate training is part of their routine, I have a spacious crate available to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize your dog’s needs, keeping them loved, exercised, and well cared for while you’re away.

Teagan is an amazing pet sitter and has watched my cats and dog several times. She always goes above and beyond in making sure they get the proper care whenever I've been gone. I also worked with her in a vet clinic situation and she was wonderful with all levels of pets that we saw no matter how big or small, their temperment, ect. She isn't afraid of the more "troublesome" pets and is always glad to find ways to make sure the animal's needs come first!

Kaitlyn is a very responsible and trustworthy person. She is great with pets, especially cats and dogs. She is very patient with animals and has a loving and caring personality that helps animals to thrive under her care. She has watched my cat for me in the past and truly puts me at ease when I need to be away from my pet when on a weekend trip or gone for work. She is the best!! I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a great pet sitter!

Super kind and did a great job with our senior dog. Kept in contact the whole time and I knew my dog was in good hands.
