Kelley was nothing short of amazing! She handled everything perfectly and was consistent and on time. It was a great feeling to know that my fur babies were being well taken care of. If you want someone that pays attention, is on time and great with animals.. call Kelley!

About: I've been a registered vet tech since 2020, but working in vet clinics prior to then, and house sitting/daily check-ins for even longer. I am also fear free certified and CPR certified. I can easily adapt to your kiddos needs. Animals are my passion. I grew up on a hobby farm, so I've handled all sized dogs and cats from neonatal to geriatric. I would love to meet you and your kiddo before I take care of them. This way I can learn about your kiddo and their needs. I work from 7 am to 6 pm. I alternate between weekends and weekdays every other month. I am flexible and willing to see what I can do to help care for you babies while you're away. I prefer at least 1-2 weeks in advance notice. I have a fenced in yard for my two German shepherds. I also created a large rabbit pen for my rescued Mini Rex. My husband and I built a large coop and pen for our chickens. I take my boys for walks on a local trail especially on cool days. I always monitor the weather to make sure they are comfortable on their walk. I would be happy to provide the same care for your pet! I will offer all the approved treats and get as much activity in as possible to assure your baby isn't stuck at home full of energy.

Izabelle showed a lot of interest and care for our cat at our initial meeting. She was very dependable and followed our care instructions. She sent several photos of our cat after each visit, though I did have to prompt her to send me messages as to how our big boy was doing overall. She immediately complied, though the messages were brief. When we arrived home it was nice to find our home just as we had left it, as well as a a happy cat who obviously had not missed any meals or treats. I would definitely use Izabelle again

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the combination of genuine love for animals and the space I can provide for them to truly thrive. Anyone that knows me knows my absolute love for dogs of all types. Living on several acres gives dogs plenty of room to safely run, play, and explore, which keeps them happy and active during their stay. We have great indoor and outdoor room, with things like a doggy pool to stay cool in the summer and a large heated shop to run around in in the winter! I have experience caring for pets of all ages—from the extra patience and guidance needed for puppies to the gentle, attentive support required for senior dogs. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, giving medications if needed, and providing both exercise and comfort. I have personal experience with caring for dogs with special needs. Above all, I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. My motto is that the pets come first in my schedule. Saying no to a dinner invitation because my husband is out of town and the dogs need walked? I do it all the time. My day starts with a long walk for my dogs and extra playtime to ensure their energy is at a good level before I go to work. Our evenings are spent outdoors with the dogs right along with us. The weekends are full days of outdoor time and extra enrichment for the dogs in our care. Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, dogs enjoy plenty of space to play and explore on our acres of land, all while being supervised to ensure they stay safe. I have two super-friendly dogs of my own who love having new playmates, and I can also crate your dog if that’s part of their routine or helps them feel secure. Inside, I keep a clean, comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel at home. Whether I’m hosting in my house or caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, from feeding schedules to walks and medication needs. My goal is to provide peace of mind for pet parents by creating a safe, loving, and structured environment for every furry guest.

We were so happy with the care, love and attention Allyson gave our Artie. She was our first non-family sitter, and it couldn't have gone any better. We really appreciated her updates and pictures. The pics showed a very happy Artie, enjoying walks, frisbee and other play time. Outstanding care and communication!

About: I'm a walking enthusiast who spends time outside wind, rain, snow, or sunshine. I'm a past dog owner who wants to help you keep your pup healthy, active, and happy. I'm ready to get to walking or sitting your pup! I'm located in Nevada, IA, but I will travel to the surrounding area for house-sitting. I'm out walking on the daily. I'm ready and willing to add a tag-along dog friend to make my walking extra special. I will take care of your dog like my own, whether keeping your schedule for house-sitting or dropping in to let them out. Walks are by far my favorite activity when I'm with them! I am willing to house-sit, drop in, and/or walk your pup, but at this time, I am not considering caring for them in my home. If you choose to have me take care of your dog, I will do my absolute best to keep them clean and happy.

Kevin has been helping us with my aunt's cat who needs daily medication. He is professional, friendly, quick to respond, and most importantly, Cleo is getting her pills. He also sends us a photo of her after each visit which we find funny (she doesn't look too happy after being pilled but she does have a lot of attitude!) and also comforting to know she is being taken care of by someone who knows what he is doing and enjoys it.

Emily did a wonderful job with our 2 cats. They are both scared of people and always hide the whole time we have visitors (even my cat loving family members) but they seemed willing to give Emily a chance right from the beginning. By day 4 they seemed to be crazy about her. Highly recommend!

About: I have had a lot of experience with dogs over the years and am just getting started with pet sitting. My priority is providing a safe and caring home for your pup while they are in my care. I currently have a yellow lab mix who loves other dogs. I have some experience with high energy dogs, nervous dogs, giving medicines, and helping finicky dogs eat. I work full time, but have a flexible job that will allow me to let your dog out as needed. Our routine includes three walks a day so I will make sure your pup is exercised. I am home evenings to spend with your dog. Weekends are the best times for me to board and your pup will be sure to get a lovely walk or hike! I have a comfortable and dog friendly apartment and access to a fenced yard/private dog park to play in. My yellow lab will love to keep your dog company, play, or show your dog the best places to nap. I can be flexible with whatever care instructions you need.

About: I am an absolute dog lover and your dog will be spoiled when in my care. I have two dogs of my own who love to play and are great with all other dogs. My fenced in yard will allow your dog to play outside for as long as they want to. They can then come inside to unwind and relax. Dogs are allowed on my furniture and anywhere in the house they find comfortable. I have lots of toys and treats too! Please message me with any special requests as I may be able to do things outside of what is listed on my profile. I look forward to meeting you and your doggies! I have a flexible schedule so I may be able to accommodate hours outside of what is listed on my profile so please message me with special requests. I have a fenced in back yard and two dogs of my own who love to play. Inside my home, dogs are able to roam as they please. I have room for kennels if your dog is accustomed to that for boarding stays. Dogs have 24 hour access to water.

About: Hey there! As the daughter of a veterinarian, growing up around animals was a given so I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and health statuses (if your pet needs any specific care). I also have two cats of my own! I look forward to meeting your pets! I currently work a full time day job, so my availability at the moment is mostly evening/weekend, but certain circumstances may allow for additional availability depending. I’ll be sure to help your pets just as safe with me as they feel with you and try to maintain their normal routine to the best of my ability.

About: I have always loved animals and caring for them. I grew up taking care of mostly dogs, but I have experience with other animals like cats, goats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I love meeting new animals and helping care for them. I am currently a student at Iowa state but am available all day Tuesdays and Thursdays and weekends. I’m available in the afternoon on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I cannot provide boarding because of the pets I have at home, but I can visit pets or stay overnight with them at their homes. I’ve stayed in ankeny overnight a few times but prefer to stay in Ames due to my classes being in the morning.

Libby responded to my request quickly and was very accomodating with a last minute booking. When meeting with her, I was impressed with her cheerful & confident manner. She was comfortable giving my cat her medications and was happy to give me updates and pictures with each visit. I would definitely trust her in my home to care for Alice again!

About: I provide experienced, reliable dog care focused on dog walking and drop-in visits. I'm available for house sitting on the weekends. I grew up around working dogs, helping my grandfather and stepdad, who were coon dog haulers. From a young age, I was responsible for feeding dogs, cleaning kennels, and learning how to read behavior and body language. As an adult, I’ve worked with a wide range of dogs, including nervous and reactive dogs. I also fostered a dog with aggression issues, which gave me real experience with triggers, stress signals, and safe handling. I focus on structured walks and drop-in visits that support a dog’s natural needs—sniffing, movement, routine, and mental stimulation through enrichment activities. I am home-based and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of timing needs, especially mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on the day. Meet-and-greets are required to ensure safety and a good fit for every dog. I have a 5-year-old Springer Doodle who is social with most dogs, and I always prioritize safe introductions. I have plenty of time for walks and Drop in visits. I would love to play with your pups and spend quality time with them. I will treat your home with the utmost care and your pet with affection. You'll receive consistent updates and photos for complete peace of mind".

About: I have experienced growing up with cats, dogs and horses then, as an adult, with my own rescues. I have worked in a veterinary clinic. I have had the pleasure to own senior and special needs babies. I love to find each pet’s personality and make them happy. I have a flexible full time job. I would primarily be looking to care for animals before work, after work and if needed I could use my lunch hour to make additional trips. I take each animal personality into account. I love it when they are excited to see me. I treat them as if they are my own. Fresh water, good food, exercise and love.
