Pet boarding, sitting and daycare.

Pet care experience

We are a family of pet lovers with the experience and amenities you’ll appreciate and your pets will love. We are conveniently located in Johnston, IA. We are just minutes away from Des Moines, Polk City, Saylorville Lake, Grimes, Urbandale and Beaverdale. Our home is located on huge lot that is completely privacy fenced to make sure that your dog has plenty of room to play and run, all while being safe. We work from home so your pet will always have company! We provide daily daycare, overnight boarding and drop ins. We can also accommodate extra walks, nail trimming and medication management. We have two dogs of our own so we know that trusting someone to care for your child is incredibly important. When your little guy/girl is here with us we will treat them as we do our own. They will lots of exercise, cuddles and attention. We would love for you to give us a try next time you’re needing a place for your little one. We work full time from home. Please contact us for the times you need as we are very flexible. We offer daily daycare, overnights and drop ins. Very large yard that is privacy fenced for their safety. Our yard has plenty of shade and sun. We also supply tons of play toys and chew toys for your little ones. No need to bring a kennel as we will supply them for your dog as needed. We have two dogs who are great with other animals and are up to date on all vaccinations. Our toddler is almost 4 and LOVES animals. We teach her responsibility by having her feed the animals, filling water, playing with them and cleaning up after them. She strives when it comes to this responsibility and this is in part to help her learn these skills at such a young age. Our availability is very open and flexible as I work from home. There is typically always someone home to give attention or potty breaks. Our availability will show not available for any dates we expect to be out of the home for any large part of the day. We have a very large privacy fenced yard for your babies to run and play with our own friendly dogs. We also live near trails and are close to Saylorville lake for walks outside. Our toddler enjoys playing fetch and cuddling with new puppies. We also have crates if your dog needs to be kenneled while away or overnight.

Alex and Tessa did a fantastic job! Lots of messages with pictures of what the dogs were doing (playing, swimming in a plastic kiddy pool, etc). Communication was great and we felt totally comfortable leaving our dog with them. Will definitely use them again!

Alex and their family were amazing with our dog!! We adopted our good boy Cheese a week and a half before our wedding, so we were really nervous leaving him with anyone for the weekend but I'm pretty sure he didn't even miss us because he was having so much fun! I got updates and pictures daily, and Cheese was so tired from playing that he snoozed as soon as he got in the truck and the whole way home. Alex was also extremely flexible, they were only supposed to watch my parent's dog but made room to watch both their and ours so that they could sleepover together. We will definitely be bringing Cheese back in the future :)

Booked with Alex for two days our dog was home alone. He was gone Atleast once for both of those days and refused to be home to give us our dog once our ETA changed drastically due to weather. I requested photos and got two photos in the entire 48 hour period. Did not contact me with updates unless I inquired. When we went to pick her up and refused to talk. Never again.
