Welcome to our family!
Pet care experience
We can't wait to meet your dog. Our household is comprised of me- the mom, an aunt, my teenage son and sometimes the college girl. My sister, who lives with us, loves to take the dogs on walks around the neighborhood. . My son (16) loves to play fetch with our visitors. My daughter (19) attends Iowa State is majoring in Animal Science. She comes home often on the week ends to visit her favorite visitors. We have all had our covid vaccines. We have a fenced in yard with lots of grass, a short step off the deck and a nice shade tree. We have cared for aging dogs in the past including our own that had diabetes for over 18 months. We are comfortable with giving shots and caring for dogs with special diets. We ask you to bring a crate or bed for the dog to be most comfortable at night and when we leave the home. We have separate areas for the dogs at feeding time to avoid distractions. We want your pups to return rested, well fed and begging to come back and visit us. Please pack the dog's food and favorite treats. We are happy to host brother and sister dogs. The second dog is only $10.00. When your dog stays with us they become part of the family. We have a very spoiled black pug. He enjoys all types of dogs and plays very gently. Mostly just runs in circles and tires out quickly. He is up to date with all shots and vaccines.
Reviews
Christine is AWESOME!!!
This was my first time using Rover so I was naturally nervous. As soon as I met Jennifer & Christine I felt at ease. I got picture updates every day. My dog got muddy from playing playing outside and they even took care of cleaning her up. When I picked Lupe up she was so happy!! I could tell she had been well taken care of. Thank you so much!!
Jennifer & Christine are AMAZING! They are so friendly and their house is clean. Our dog felt right at home as soon as we arrived to drop her off. We loved that Jennifer & Christine kept us updated on how our dog was doing while we were gone. We couldn’t have asked for a better family to care for our dog. Thank you so much, Jennifer & Christine for taking care of Bella! Bella really enjoyed her stay.
They had our 2 pups for a week. They sent me updates and pictures, and also let me know the ups and downs of the stay. My 7 month old puppy had terrible separation anxiety and made things difficult, but these ladies were amazing. Showing my pups extra love to make them feel more comfortable.

Information Jennifer & Christine S. would like to know about your pet
We do prefer smaller dogs as they are the most fun for Midnight to play with. But he tends to get along with most breeds.
A typical day
We have a very dog friendly neighborhood. Our pug takes a stoll every night if its not too humid. Oliver gets home from school shortly after 3 and plays fetch and catches the pups up on water and treats.
