“Izabelle did a great job taking care of Toby while we were away. She was reliable and prompt in arriving for his care needs. It was great to see her report cards with photos attached. Would hire her again.”
“Kelley was wonderful with our dog, Wally. She went above and beyond after our flight got delayed and we couldn’t get home right away. We will definitely be continuing with her services! Highly recommend!”
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.
“Ashley was wonderful! She was able to take care of our pups on short notice and sent tons of pictures! Our dogs loved her and she took great care and played lots of fetch! I absolutely recommend her and will be using her again!”
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 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!
“Erin is AMAZING! We had a last minute trip and she was able to accommodate. She was way beyond anything we could have expected! Such detailed reports and pictures and even stayed longer in some cases. The care she has for animals is evident, you’ll feel confident putting your pets in Erin’s care.”
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 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’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 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!
