“Kylee was excellent! She was willing to spot over before the scheduled sitting to meet the pets and learn their routines. She sent us pictures and updates on our pets, which ensured us of their wellbeing. I can't recommened Kylee enough!”


“Jeanette did a fantastic job taking care of our old girl! She was very communicative, open to last minute adjustments, and kept us apprised on how our pup was doing! Highly recommend and will absolutely book with her again.”

“Chloe did an exceptional job watching our Dane. He was dealing with an injury and needed extra attention, a cone and medication and Chloe met all of his needs. This was our first time using Rover and being able to travel with peace of mind that our boy was at home made our trip so much more enjoyable. We came home to a very happy boy and a clean house. We will for sure be using Chloe on future trips and recommend her to any of our friends that have pets.”


About: I have been pet-sitting for a little over a year. I check water, food, and keep company to cats and dogs. I also have experience watching/walking puppies as young as 6 weeks. I am currently in school and have a part-time job. I am available for walking, house-sitting, drop-in visits, and boarding every Weekday and Sundays. I can do mornings, and afternoons. I have a half-acre yard that is readily accessible for your companion animals to run around in. I also have a large dog crate available. I will go to extreme measures to ensure your animal is safe and happy with me whatever the task.

About: I grew up with my favorite dog and had him for 13 years and was my best friend. My passion is dogs and I love spending time with them. I currently work full time so I am available after 4 on weekdays and then available on weekends for animals to stay with me as needed. Multiple walks a day and all the snuggles possible. Feeding schedule based on the clients preference. Play time is important and will play as much as the cute pup wants!

About: I grew up on a farm, so I have been around all kinds of animals. I absolutely love them and appreciate all they offer. I have also done some pet sitting for neighbors and co-workers. I have raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, so I understand what it takes to ensure they feel loved. I will do everything in my power to make sure your animals are well cared for and cherished. I am a full time student but class is over after 2:30 so anytime in the afternoons works best for me. Also anytime during weekends I can be available. Just tell me a time and I will do what’s necessary to fit it in my schedule. I’m willing to do just about anything. I’m comfortable with staying in your home if that’s necessary. I will give them lots of love and attention. Making sure all their needs are met.

“Libby was absolutely incredible with our puppers. She was so kind and sent along lots of photos while we were away, which always makes travel easier. She was also flexible and kind when we had a travel snafu and was helpful in brainstorming solutions and offering assistance to make sure our kiddos were cared for. Both of our pups require daily meds and Libby was confident and effective in delivering them. We will 100% be booking her again. Thank you, Libby!!”


About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals of all kinds—chickens, ponies, cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards—you name it, I’ve probably cared for it! That experience gave me a natural comfort and confidence with animals from a young age, and it taught me how to read their behavior, understand their needs, and treat them with gentleness and respect. I’ve looked after everything from snuggly lap cats to high-energy dogs who need lots of play and exercise. I enjoy taking active dogs to parks and getting them the movement they need, while also knowing how to slow things down for older pets or animals who need extra care. I’ve also cared for pets who were mildly sick or healing, giving them special attention, gentle handling, and keeping a close eye on their needs. What sets me apart is my calm, steady presence and my ability to adjust to each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, affectionate, or a little quirky—I meet them where they’re at and care for them like they’re my own. Right now, I’m in a season of life where I’m home full-time and have plenty of availability to care for pets. I love being around animals, and with my flexible schedule, I can give them the time, attention, and consistency they need throughout the day. If this turns into something steady, I’d love to make pet care my full-time focus! For now, my days are wide open, and I’m excited to spend them keeping your pets happy, safe, and loved. When caring for pets in my home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. For in-home boarding, I’m currently only able to host quiet pets due to both my living situation and the peaceful nature of our neighborhood. This includes animals like cats, hamsters, reptiles, and even spiders like tarantulas — all of which tend to be low-noise and easygoing. I share my home with my spouse, who is a light sleeper and highly sensitive to sound, so it’s important that any pets I host are calm and relatively quiet. While I generally don’t board dogs at this time, I may make exceptions for certain small, quiet breeds — such as older Shih Tzus — who are known for their gentle, quiet temperament and cuddly nature. Please note that other small breeds like dachshunds or beagles, which tend to be more vocal, unfortunately wouldn’t be a good fit for our environment. Of course, I understand that every animal has its own personality, so if you believe your pet is especially calm, feel free to reach out and we can discuss! I live near a walking path that’s perfect for regular walks and potty breaks. I’m happy to provide exercise and fresh air as part of their daily routine. I always follow the pet’s normal routine as much as possible, and I’ll communicate closely with you to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for in my home or yours.

About: I have been involved with animals my whole life and I’m so excited to meet your fur baby! I have experience with cats, dogs, and everything in between. I work locally here in Iowa falls and always have time in my schedule for our furry friends. Having animals myself i know how important it is to give them love and i’m happy to make the time! I treat animals with the best care, mine or others. I am a pre vet student and I understand how important proper care is when dealing with the animals you love.
