Will treat your pets like family
Pet care experience
I will care for your pets like they are my own. I have dogs of my own that are very nice and love to play with other dogs. I have worked at a veterinary office before helping with feeding dogs, walking them and cleaning out their cages. I am currently attending Drake University for veterinary care. Taking care of animals has always been my dream job as a child and now it is finally starting to become a reality. In the past, I have had a Saint Bernard, German Shepard a Dalmatian and a blind lab/pitbull mix. I will provide the very best care for your animal and make them as happy as possible. Thank you for looking at my profile, have a nice day.
Reviews
I recently booked Ravyn to board my dog for a weekend since I had boarded him with her on a previous trip a few years ago with no issues. However since then her situation has changed drastically and her profile is not at all up to date. She now has 3 large Rottweilers (mom and 2 full grown pups) and the house is definitely not non-smoking. I have an adult male Doberman who is the sweetest dog in the world, but he is a dominant male dog and over the weekend got ganged up on by a pack of 3 dogs who were at least as big, if not bigger, than he is. Shortly after picking him up I discovered he was been bitten during the stay which ended up requiring a visit to the Vet, antibiotics, and about a week of close monitoring as the wound was open and leaking. I think Ravyn really cares about dogs, but she needs to update her profile and I would absolutely not recommend using her if you have a large dog, especially if it's male. Not counting boarding fees I ended up paying about $160 in Vet bills and losing a $70 dog bed due to cigarette smoke. The Vet did agree with my opinion that the bite didn't appear to be vicious - more likely an accident - but it still breaks my heart knowing he was ganged up on all weekend and had to experience such a painful wound.
Gabriel was safe and happy on my arrival home. Ravyn cared for him for 4 days, took him to the park and made sure he was safe and fed! She also left the house clean!
Ravyn was amazing and trustworthy! She was gracious to give updates and photos to put our minds and hearts at ease so we could enjoy our trip. We will definitely be using Ravyn in the future.
Rosie had a great time And was well taken care of. I could not have asked for anything better

Information Ravyn A. would like to know about your pet
If the dog has any special needs to keep track of, and no I have no special breed preference. I love all dogs the same. No breed too small, no breed too big.
A typical day
We can go to the dog park in Des Moines, take naps, eat together and go on long walks around the Des Moines area. Or we can stay inside and just play tug of war.
