Dog Walking in New Vision, Des Moines, IA

“Alex is a wonderful pet sitter! She has watched our two dogs multiple times now and I always feel safe leaving them in her care! Alex sends regular updates to let me know how my pets are doing and I know my dogs love seeing her!”

“Monica was amazing with Barry! She left detailed reports and pictures. Barry is so comfortable with her and we are going to continue to use Monica’s services for the future! Highly recommend.”

“Cory was a fantastic walker and play buddy for Koda! He was willing to come and meet koda ahead of time and get to know him! We will definitely use Cory again!”

“Brad has been absolutely fantastic! He is flexible, reliable, responsible, caring- the list goes on! He treats each dog individually and uses commands each owner uses with their dogs to help with training. Jake and I lucked out finding Brad here in Des Moines!”

“Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!”

“Keturah has always done an amazing job taking care of pets for me. With work picking up recently she's been consistent and caring and I'm honestly starting to think the cat likes her more than me!”

“Jenevieve is beyond fantastic!! Came in clutch and helped me when I was sick to make sure my pup still got to enjoy a nice walk! 100/10!! ❤️”

About: I have never lived without a dog! I am a dog mom of 10 years to 2 rescues and my life revolves around them. I also volunteer at the Animal Rescue League of Iowa, where I walk the adoptable doggies. I would love to work with your dogs and cats too! 🐶 🐱 I am self employed, so I’m able to stop in to take care of your pets whenever you need me! They will be treated as my own. I have been caring for dogs for 20 years. I have experience walking dogs with a collar and/or harness. I have experience in dog behavior and what the dog(s) needs. I enjoy walking dogs, playing with them and their favorite toys, and giving them lots of pets and cuddles! Dogs are the only things in this world that love you more than they love themselves.

“Priscilla and John are great. They helped me out with no notice this time. They're always great and willing to help and the boys love them.”

“Tori did a great job watching our dog while we were traveling. Our dog really bonded with her. She also left the house clean and tidy. We were able to relax on our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands.”

“I was able to book Troy on short notice, which was very helpful. He was prompt, friendly, and my dog was instantly comfortable with him. I’d definitely recommend Troy and plan to book him again in the future!”

“Katya was amazing! She’s kind and works very well with animals. She took my older dog and my puppy on a walk and stopped in to feed the dogs multiple times. She’s attentive to detail and trustworthy.”

“Kaitlin was incredibly helpful when my dog made a mess of my house before she came to walk him. She went above and beyond to clean up the mess and took very good care of him on their walks and afterwards!”

About: I grew up with two dogs and absolutely love dogs. I have experience with all different sizes. I love playing with dogs, petting them and walking them. I am currently a grad student at Drake University and a have Fridays off. I also have some day time availability when we don’t have classes. I will respect the wishes of the clients home. I will respect their boundaries and keep their pet safe the entire time. I will follow all rules provided by the client.

“I reached out to Arielle and Karl for dog walking services and they were great!! They were professional and locked up the place when they left. After the walk, they even spent time to show Ranger some love with some extra pets. Thanks again! Happy holidays!”

About: I have more experience in taking care of cats; however, I’m an active outdoors person who enjoys going on walks and spending time with dogs. I would be happy to learn more and see the great outdoors with them! I work full time for the State. I can easily attend mornings and evenings and, if close to the office, over the lunch hour. Weekends and every other Friday are also totally free and I am in Des Moines for them. For cats, I am big into ensuring that they are appreciated and taken care of. This includes playing, bringing toys, and ensuring their litter is clean and tidy. For dogs, I value their opinion of what toys they like and things they want to do. They should have a friend and feel listened to why their family are away.

“Chelsie you went above and beyond to make sure my pups were treated with royalty. I have never seen my dogs get so excited to see someone, not even when I get home. Chelsie supplied lots of pictures of the walks and the most detailed summary which was always a pleasure to read. She really cares and extremely thoughtful, would never hesitate to book with her anytime I need help. Thank you so much Chelsie!”

“Noah has watched my two cats on and off for the last three years and he truly is the best. Not only completely trustworthy and kind, but he has such a gentle demeanor that makes me even more comfortable leaving him with my babies. I sometimes even get pictures and continuous updates to make sure that they’re always doing okay when I’m away. 10/10 would recommend Noah for any pet sitting needs.”

About: A frequent comment my girlfriend makes is that my dog, Appa, will never fully grasp how much he is loved by me, and I can’t help but agree. I’ve always felt a special bond between myself and animals, and have had pets in my family my entire life! My goal is to extend that love and care to your pets and give them a high quality of life while you’re away. I have experience caring for puppies and elderly dogs, and know how important it is to let out all their energy, and to be gentle with older pups. Additionally, one of the services I offer is pet photography! I’m a freelance photographer and have been capturing very special moments when Appa and I are together, and would love to extend that service to you as well, if that is of any interest. Right now I’m a student at DMACC, with classes from 8-12 on Mondays and Wednesday, and 1-3 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. At this time, however, I am doing Rover full time and have active, full availability for your pet sitting needs. My clients take priority and receive my full attention and care. I always am aware of things dogs/cats can get themselves into. I’m careful to note potentially hazardous things in the environment, including trash, plastics, and other chewable objects, and I have a routine of making sure they’re out of reach for Appa if he’s out of my sight. In your home for drop in visits, I will make sure to check that nothing is out of order or can be of any danger to your pet. Safety is a value I have high standards for.

About: I’ve taken care of cats for basically my whole live and have several years experience with ferrets and other small animals. I’ve also been trusted with taking care of dogs by friends and family as well. I am currently working part time so my schedule is pretty open, within reason. I am free for pet care any day of the week, so just let me know when and I’ll be there. No matter what you need me to do, I will be sure to follow through on your instructions. I treat any pet that I take care of as if it were my own.
