About: I worked at a veterinarian center for 2 years, and have 15+ years of experience with pets. I absolutely love animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently working part time so i’ll have plenty of time to play and take care of your baby’s. I love going on walks with them and they will be able to snuggle up right next to me at night! I have a lawn outside and a great walking route where i live. I also have space for your doggies to sleep, play and hang out!

About: With over 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, I bring a calm, confident presence that animals naturally trust. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and temperaments—including senior pets, rescues, and animals with medical or behavioral needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, structured walks, or just quiet company, I treat every animal like family. Communication, safety, and comfort are always my priorities—and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way! I offer drop-in visits and dog walking that fit easily into your pet’s routine. I do not offer overnight care, but I’m happy to check in morning, midday, or evening to keep your pet comfortable and happy while you're out. I believe pets are family—and I treat them that way. You’ll always get clear updates, lots of photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Let me know what they love, what makes them nervous, and how I can help make things easy for both of you! I care for pets exclusively in their own homes, where they feel most safe, secure, and comfortable. I believe that animals thrive in familiar environments, and my goal is to support their routine with as little disruption as possible. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk or a drop-in visit, I always make safety my top priority. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes before and after every visit, and I keep a close eye on your pet’s body language to make sure they’re feeling calm and secure. I’m respectful of your home and space, and I clean up after myself (and your pet!) so you return to a tidy, happy environment. I take time to learn your pet’s preferences and quirks—what comforts them, what makes them nervous, and how to help them feel loved while you're away. Trust and communication matter to me, and I’ll always keep you updated with honest check-ins and sweet snapshots of your pet while you’re gone.

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life, and I have experience with dogs of all sizes and kinds, ranging from Pomeranian to Great Pyrenees. I currently have a cat of my own, and grew up taking care of cats of all ages. In college, I volunteered at a humane society where I worked on socializing cats and walking dogs, on leash of course, prior to adoption. There, I also learned how to prevent the spread of infection, both in a kennel and from home to home. I also have experience taking care of fish and poultry, doing water changes and chemical balancing, if needed. I'm currently a graduate student at ISU, so my schedule is very flexible to fit any schedule you require, including midday walks and drop-in visits. I am very detail oriented and will ensure the best care for your pet. My attention to detail ensures that any emergencies will be taken care of promptly, and your pet will get the most ideal care for them.

About: I have been dogsitting, catsitting, and housesitting since I was in high school! I also worked for 3 years at a general practice veterinary clinic, working with animals boarding at the facility to provide them care. I have also worked 2 years in the ICU of the Small Animal Hospital at Iowa State, taking care of patients. I am currently working part-time, so I have lots of flexibility with my schedule when it comes to housesitting, walking your dogs, or any care you might need! I am happy to play with your pets, take them outside, and ensure they have company! I cannot care for pets in my own home (territorial cat, oops!) but more than happy to hang out in your home and ensure your pets are happy and taken care of.

About: I have over 2000 hours caring for shelter cats. I am the guardian of five cats. I'm comfortable around shy cats, kittens, old cats, all cats! I can administer simple medication if needed.

I have flexible job hours and can work around your schedule. I have a car and am not afraid to drive in inclement weather conditions.

About: I’m a lifelong pet owner and have experience taking care of both dogs and cats. Over the past six years, I’ve been responsible for feeding, walking, playing with, and providing general care and attention to my own dog. These last few years I’ve also pet sat for my family members and friends, taking care of their dogs and cats. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and ensuring that they feel well taken care of and loved! I am currently a student at Iowa State University, but everyday I have breaks or long stretches of time where I can drop in on and take care of your pets! I always ensure that I go over with any rules/boundaries with clients and to ask about any additional care towards the pet (like administering medicine). I like to know whatever works best for you and your pets!

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s, friends', and neighbors' cats and dogs since I was a child. I have a knack for getting even the most nervous of pets to feel comfortable around me and most of my friends consider me as their pet’s "cool aunt". I am comfortable with small and large dogs and cats, and I always strive to keep the minds of the pets I’m watching stimulated and engaged. With me, your pet will never miss out on snuggles and play time. I am also familiar with geriatric and disabled pets and I am comfortable giving oral medication. I am currently a graduate student finishing up my master’s degree in wildlife ecology, so I have a fairly flexible schedule at the moment. This means that I will have time to prioritize your pet’s care. While I cannot care for pets in my own home, I will gladly come to yours. I am comfortable preparing food, feeding, and giving oral medication to your pet. Additionally, I will gladly keep up with any ongoing training you are already doing with your pet while you are gone.

About: I grew up in an animal loving household. My mom is a vet so that helps lol. I have had a pug, Yorkie and a St. Bernard. I currently have a French bulldog and two Frenchie mixes. I also have owned a Ferret and I currently have a snake. I have pet sat in my neighborhood for a while now. I have also pet sat for my mom's coworkers too. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, llama's, alpacas, horses, goats and poultry. I'm here for all your animal needs! I showed dogs in 4-H for 8 years. Showmanship, obedience, and agility. I showed a St. Bernard, French bulldog, German shepherd and a Golden retriever. I also showed my ferret and my snake in the small pet show. I will be in school staring end of August so I will have to see what that will look like for me. This summer I will have another job so I will have to make this work around that. Just contact me and I'm sure we can figure something out. I will have to go to your place to care for your animals. I will be in an apartment starting August and my roommate would not be too thrilled if I had animals over to care for. If you really need your pet at my place for a short time then lmk and I will have to talk to my roommate. I will try to make something work.

We recently had the pleasure of having Ashley care for our cats and Shitzu dog. From our very first interaction, it was clear that Ashley possesses a genuine love for animals. She immediately connected with our timid cats, Honey and Fat Cat, and made them feel comfortable in Ashley's presence. Ashley provided consistent updates about our pet and contacted us promptly when she had a concern about a behavior she saw in our Shitzu, which was actually a normal behavior that we had forgotten to mention to her. Nonetheless, it was incredibly reassuring to see our animals were being so well taken care of. Ashley is reliable, communicative, and truly goes the extra mile. She treated our home with respect and left everything neat and tidy. We returned to happy, relaxed (yet VERY excited to see us) pets and a peaceful home, which is all any pet parent could ask for. We highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for compassionate and capable pet care. She's a true gem!

Sarah has experience with a wide range of animals, including fish, reptiles, rodents, dogs, cats, and horses. With two dogs and a cat at home, she prioritizes their well-being by caring for each animal as an individual. For example, one of her dogs has a condition that needs specialized vet care and diet. Between her previous job as a vet tech and her innate love of all creatures, she makes sure that while the dog receives the necessary care, the other animals in the house are just as happy and loved. Her world revolves around her animals, so she understands how important pets are to their people!

This means that I will have time to prioritize your pet’s care. While I cannot care for pets in my own home, I will gladly come to yours. I am comfortable preparing food, feeding, and giving oral medication to your pet. Additionally, I will gladly keep up with any ongoing training you are already doing with your pet while you are gone.

Julian is responsible and caring. I trust Julian completely to come to my house even if I am gone and care for Duke. She genuinely cares about him and gives him the love and attention that he needs. She takes very good care of him. He loves being with Julian, immediately wagging his tail when he sees her. If Julian is going to care for your pet, you are the lucky one. I highly recommend Julian.

Ceondra is one of the best people to have as a dog caregiver. She's a vet technician for goodness sakes, it just shows she's already responsible enough to properly take care of any dog. She loves dogs, I've never seen someone shine so bright when being in the presence of a dog. She's the first person I call when I have any questions about my four legged best friend. You literally couldn't ask for anyone better.

About: I’ve volunteered walking dogs at shelters and worked in a vet hospital, giving me experience with puppies, seniors, and providing loving, attentive, reliable pet care. I’m a college student home for the summer with plenty of free time, so I’m available to provide consistent, attentive care for your pet daily or weekly. I prioritize safety by following your pet’s routine and rules closely. During walks and drop-ins, I create a calm, trusting environment to keep pets comfortable and secure.

About: I have plenty of expertise when it comes to watching and caring for dogs. My dad and I have been raising dogs for as long as I can remember, and I have always been very involved in making sure they were well cared for. If you choose me to care for your animals you can rest assured that they will be in the care of someone who genuinely cares for them and has the skill set to do so. I’m currently working a part time job, and have classes Monday, Wednesday and Friday. My schedule is relatively flexible and can likely accommodate any of your requests. I will ensure a safe, clean environment and follow the owner's care guidelines and will make any accommodations needed. Provide scheduled meals, exercise, and medication, and keep emergency numbers handy.

Kimi did such a great job! When I requested a walk she asked if we could do a meet and greet that day, which I really appreciate. She was very personable and knowledgeable about dogs.

Autumn is my sister and also the "main" owner of our doggo, Jean. She works at a vet clinic currently and has been for a couple of years now. From what I've heard feom both places she's worked, she's amazing at her job. And amazing with the animals as well. Autumn has always had a soft spot for animals, and that's why she chose her career choice as a vet. She's a vet student now at ISU and is an amazing student. She's a very loyal and safe person when it comes to animals/pet and just in general. She's been responsible and loving towards our dog Jean too. Jean Bean is her whole world(and mine) and she gives all pets the same loving treatment she gives Jean. Thank you, Allison R.

About: I have been around animals all my life. I love playing with them and taking them for a walk. Its been a pleasure to be with animals. I am retired so I can be available at anytime to take care of dogs. I will care for them like they are my own. I will be able to walk them or just play with them in the yard. I like taking dogs for a walk because it gives them exercise and me too.
