Daniel was amazing! We have a newly adopted puppy and had to leave town for a night shortly after adopting him. Daniel gave us peace of mind while we were away and took great care of our crazy pup!

Allison stayed with Maisie for four days in my home and it was an excellent experience. She provided daily updates and photos. Maisie was a happy girl! And my condo was in perfect order when I returned. Probably better than the way I left it. I will definitely ask Allison to come and stay with Maisie again. I have complete confidence and trust in her.

I came in from out of town to visit my parents and needed someone to watch my three pups at an Airbnb—and Claire was everything we could have needed and more. She was communicative, kind, and clearly experienced. The dogs took to her immediately, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!

I use Molly regularly as I have trips every couple of months out of state. Molly is great at communicating and sending updates. I know my boys are in good hands with her and she makes these stressful trips so much easier knowing this. I recommend her every chance I get!

Aaliyah watched my two cats while we were on vacation. She went above and beyond taking care of them & our home even though my boys put her in some tough & unexpected situations. There were late nights, early mornings, and lots of phone calls & texts messages. I'd definitely book her again if she'd accept me!

We really love Jessica and she takes good care of our fur babies! We have a 7 year old foxhound a 7 month old new lab/beagle mix puppy at our house and she took on both last week, and they just loved having her here! She always sends us updates and photos and I feel very at ease when we are out of town and she is here. Highly recommend.

About: I started in the veterinary field at the age of 15 as a kennel technician and cross trained in the clinic as a veterinary assistant. I then went to school for animal/veterinary science and graduated with valuable skills and education. After school I went into zookeeping where i cared for a variety of taxa including but not limited to carnivores and hoofed animals. After leaving the field and changing careers, I became a foster home for Oh My Dog Rescue based in the Des Moines IA area. As a Retail Manager my schedule is not consistent however I guarantee that I will check on your animals a minimum of twice per day unless otherwise agreed upon. I do best house/petsitting for clients who leave detailed instructions and emergency contacts. I bring structure and high quality care to the table in every home I enter.

Travis was exceptionally quick to respond and very attentive to my three dogs. Two of my dogs can be hyper and he never once seemed put off by their behaviors. I got photo updates from him without having to ask and he was on time to get to my house before we left out of state. If we needed a sitter again, we’d definitely book with Travis.

Absolutely amazing house and dog sitter. She went above and beyond in every way and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Tiger was so loved, cared for, and spoiled the entire time — we could tell immediately when we got home. She kept us updated, treated our home with care, and truly cared for Tiger like he was her own. We are beyond grateful and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation! 🐾✨

Sam stayed at our house with our dog and cat. She did a great job and communicated appropriately. Our dog is terrified of fireworks, so I was concerned about that, but Sam did a great job of taking care of her. We will Definitely have her back.
