About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was brought home from the hospital. I’ve cared for Great Danes to Shitzus. I never discriminate against breeds. I’m a pre-vet student here to provide pet care for all animals and owners. I live in the Cedar Falls area and go to school at UNI. I have a very flexible schedule and am available for long sits and repeat scheduling. For most dogs it is better to keep them in the place they are most confident. Anything you need just let me know. I can make boarding work as long as our pups get along. I have the sweetest Catahoula that has never been mean to other dogs or people.

“I highly recommend Willow for ANY house and/or pet sitting job. Not long ago , we were able to travel abroad for an extended time while Willow tended to my two horses, 5 goats, numerous birds (ducks, turkeys and chickens), two large dogs and three cats. I can vouch for her as a responsible, honest, reliable and trustworthy young lady. To add to our peace of mind, was the fact that she has an equally reliable family support system. I would not hesitate to hire Willow for any job. She is especially conscientious, kind and intelligent.”
