Dog Walkers in Pella, IA

“Kira has excellent communication, provides plenty of updates and always uploads pictures of the walks.”

About: My partner, Anthony, and I are the Rover duo here! Together, we have a combined 20+ years of experience working with dogs. Anthony primarily does the house sitting and we both work together for boarding in our home. We currently have 2 dogs of our own who are both rescues. Arthur is our 6 year old playful, loving lab mix and Taz is our 4 month old sassy pit mix puppy! We love caring for pets and are excited to spread the love to more doggy friends! You can count on us to be reliable, respectful, engaged, and loving to your pets. We will ensure that they get exercise and the love they need while under our care. We will make sure the environment is safe for all pets and make sure your pet has access to food and water at all times. We work from home full time and will make sure your pet has the necessary potty breaks they need and will not be left in a kennel all day long. We love dogs and are excited to provide a safe + comfortable place for your pet so you can enjoy your time away from home knowing your dog(s) is/are in good hands. Anthony and I work from home, which makes pet care fit very easily into our daily and weekly routine. We have 2 dogs of our own and we never leave them home alone longer than 4 hours. We have a fenced-in yard. The yard is safe and a great size to give your pet ample space to run around and exercise. We also have outdoor cameras to monitor if we are not outside with them.

“Donna has a strong love for animals, especially dogs. She's had a couple of her own dogs and treated them well. She's tusting as well.”

“Booked for dog walking and I am confident my dog also gives her 5 stars. My dog loved Ali immediately, first sight. Ali is attentive to her and clearly skilled with her. My dog is intelligent and PARTICULAR about leaving me. Notoriously bad at taking commands from strangers. When Ali arrived for just the second walk, my dog was loving her and ready to head out at the first sight of her. And my dog gets long walks every day the weather allows, so walking alone is not the draw here. Ali communicates beautifully with me as an owner, does great follow-up when she returns from the walk, and clearly loves what she does. No complaints in my house. I don't generally leave my dog care to anyone else, but Ali”

About: The kind of care your pets deserve. I’ve worked with every size & breed of dog since age 9, always had a four legged friend living with me, I can bathe, walk, even cook for your dog! Most importantly make them feel as important as you do! I'm a vet tech, therefore I WILL know what to do in case of emergencies, I'm first aid/CPR animal certified. College classes currently are online, I have everyday, all day available for your pet! Always home, if I have to run an errand I will most likely end up taking your pup with me for the company ☺️ I have a fenced backyard, and 3 fur babies to keep your pup company, your pet will get treated like royalty, my neighborhood has bike trails everywhere your dog and mine can explore on! I also provide car rides to Starbucks to get your pup, a puppachino!! 🐾 Absolutely NO smoking is allowed in my home, your pet will not be around that. Your pet will have the right to roam freely in my home as they do at yours, If you suggest a carrier or kennel I have some or can set one up if you request it! This is a female only home, if your pet is scared of males. I also do accept reactive/aggressive dogs, if your pet does not get along with others I can accommodate to separate my pets and yours during your stay with me. I'm currently doing online college classes, and have full home time availability, if for any reason I have an appointment or an errand I have to run, where your fur baby cannot come with me, I've got a sister just as obsessed with pets as I am. Although your fur baby will not be left alone anything more than 2 hours max. 2 story home with a fenced back yard, absolutely NO smoking in my home, female only household, and daily mental and physical stimulation! Wether I'm teaching new tricks or going on miles worth of a walk, your pet will be occupied. If the stay is in YOUR home, expect a thousand updates with pictures, videos, we can even video call. I will be at your house 24/7, and if any errand needs ran I will make sure your pet gets let out before or fed before, and as well as when I come back.

“Heather did an amazing job walking our fur baby while we were away. She gave us a full report and the pictures were a bonus. We will definitely higher Heather again!”

About: I grew up on a small hobby farm in IL and have taken care of our dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, chickens, and other misc pets. Our family also was the county wildlife rescue contact, adopting and rehabilitating animals of all kinds. I’ve also helped with fostering from our local shelter, taking in new momma cats and dogs, giving their new litter support and care outside of the shelter environment until old enough for adoption. I’m available for pet sitting or boarding on weeknights and weekends. I do work a full time job, but have the option to work from home if care is needed outside of this timeframe. I currently do not have any pets of my own, so taking in any pet is super simple! I have a spacious, open downstairs that your pet(s) would be free to roam / play in. I do not have a fenced in yard, but am just a few blocks away from the town square, to easily go on walks throughout town and the park. I am not afraid of walking a strong dog, dogs without manners, etc. from growing up with hunting dogs of our own. I also enjoy going out on the wooden trails around lake red rock. I have never met a pet I didn’t like, and promise to love and care for your pet as if it was my own. Whether your pet is used to being crate trained or sleeping on the bed, I want your pet to feel comfortable and at home while you may be out. I also can provide reliable care outside of my home. From checking in on pets periodically, weekend stays, or completing barn chores, I am a trusted source of care.

About: I've grown up having pets of my own (both cats and dogs) and caring for them my entire lifetime. I truly connect with animals and adore spending time with them- whether that's walking, playing, or cuddling. :) I'm currently a senior at Central College, involved in cross country and track. I'm unavailable on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and occasionally Fridays and Saturdays as well. My Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays are typically pretty open depending on the week. I'm able to learn and provide any sort of special services needed for the pets I care for. I will make sure there is food/water filled, pets are walked and provided time to go to the bathroom, playtime and cuddles are given, and all items used are returned to where they were originally found.

Your pet will be loved as if it’s her own!! I highly recommend her and I would not have any hesitation leaving my pets in her care! It will give you great peace of mind knowing they will be loved in her care!”

Recent August 2023 - A few hours noticed a neighbor needed my pet watching service. I watch Sophia and Shadow (Labrador’s) so that their owners could go to there nieces dance show! I played with them outside at their house all fenced in area. Lots of pets and made sure to feed them the correct food and portion! May 2023 - watched 4 Dogs each with their own food needs and had to place the bowls in different rooms. Lots of petting and napping together. I let them outside because they were all fenced in. The owners were gone for a week on vacation! April 2023 - Just watched two cats while the owners went on vacationing. I made sure that all their bowls were filled, watered and lots of pets and talked to them. 24+ years old - I’ve always watched my friends dogs and cats. my parents have a collie again (Waylon 100 pounds) and a ragdoll (Wyatt 12 pounds). I babysit them frequently and both trained like a dog, smart, fun, and loving their fur baby life!. Yes, Wyatt sits with hand signal. I’ve always loved to train. 23 years old - I volunteered at a humane society. I was recognized for my work. I walked 18 dogs by myself in the winter at times. I did this for a year and a half. 10 years old - had a collie (Orion) and cat ( Milo). I trained the family dog all kinds of commands and milo would join us for walks. I miss them. I currently work as a freelancer and would like to fill my life with the outdoors and walk your dog! I’m always at the screen and want a second job. I follow instructions if I’m staying at the clients home. Please feel free to type up your perfect sheet of instructions so I may know exactly how to take care of your fur babies.

“My dogs were very happy and tired when I got home, no more cabin fever. Thank you Julie!!!”

About: I’ve worked many positions such as doggy daycare provider, in a veterinary clinic, animal rescues, as well as pet sitting and taking care of my own fur babies! I personally have two cats and a dog of my own, animals take up the majority of my time during the day whether that’s paying them attention or meeting their needs- I’m quite attentive. Their needs will always be a top priority. I’m fond of frequent walks, playing ball or any other variety of their favorite activity, belly rubs, I’m also knowledged in feedings and medications for varying needs. If there’s anything specific you need don’t hesitate to ask!

“She is amazing with animals. She is really good with my pups. You couldn’t ask for a better person to watch your pets. Thank you again!”

About: I've always had pets growing up. I currently have 2 dogs of my own, one female and one male. The female is 40 lbs and the male is 10lbs. I currently work a full time job so I'm only available on nights and boarding on weekends. But I'm usually always home when I'm not working. I have outdoor tie ups so your dogs can still get exercise. I will be fencing in part of the yard eventually. The 2 dogs I have are high energy and will play with any animal. I do have crates if they need to be crated.
