About: I attended Iowa Westerns vet tech program, I have worked for various veterinarians, and have over 20yrs of experience pet sitting and boarding. I have experience with all breeds and sizes of dogs including puppy and senior animals. I am a stay at home mom so your dog will have 24/7 loving care. They will have access to 7acres of trails to hike. With lots of pets and cuddles. My home is pet friendly, however your pet must be ok with children and cats. Home not suited for Aggressive animals. Animals will be treated as if they are part of the family

“Autumn was great with our black Lab for a long weekend away. She sent updates with pics and videos. I felt like she spoiled our dog with lots of love and attention! Easy drop off and pick up. She definitely cares for your pet like they were her own.”

“Victoria was amazing!!! Our family had a medical emergency and Victoria came to the rescue by taking both of our dogs within minutes of us submitting the request. She provided our dogs with great care and provided constant communication.”

About: I’ve had a dog in the home for almost my entire life, and got my first on my own during Covid to have a friend around 😊 My second dog moved in two years ago. I work full-time from home, so, other than leaving once a day for working out at the gym, my schedule is flexible to fit around your pet’s needs. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who love to play. I allow dogs on the furniture and have a gate to prevent them from getting downstairs. My neighborhood is quiet and great for walks.

“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She was attentive, caring, and sent regular updates and pictures, giving us peace of mind while we were away. Our pup felt right at home with her, and we couldn’t be happier with the care provided. Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone reliable and compassionate - just please don’t book her on dates that we need her 😂”

“Traci was very helpful and accommodating. She took my baby last minute (my previous arrangements feel through the day I was supposed to leave) and took her to the vet when she had problems with no hesitations. My dog loves her and her family. I will definitely reach out to her again if I ever need a sitter. Thank you so much, Traci!! You are a life saver!”

About: I’ve taken care of and owned dogs for many years. I walk and lease train too, I’ve done it for my dog and a few of our neighbors dogs. I love giving dogs their “best day ever”! I work part time in the mornings, but there is someone always home who is able to provide any care that is needed while I am away (like being let outside) I will make sure your animal always feels safe and comfortable despite it being unfamiliar. I’ll make sure they always have a comfy place to sleep a nice big bowl of cold water and lots and lots of playtime. Your animals deserve the best while you’re away. they will have access to our large fully fenced in backyard whenever they please.

About: I’m a SAHM to an almost 2 year old. We have time to spend with your animals and make sure they’re well loved and cared for . My son has been around animals and I’ve taught him to be gentle and would never leave your pet unattended. We also love taking them for walks or playing outside with them. I’m a SAHM mom to an 1 year old boy who loves animals . I’m available any time of day usually and try to spend an hour or two with the dog or cat at a time so they’re not lonely . I only care for animals in other peoples homes . I can do drop ins and if I’m house sitting for you I’ll spend a good bit of time with your animals . If I’m doing a drop in it will be for about an hour each time . If you’re worried about my son I can also bring a play pen for him

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life! Im in the process of training my puppy right now and we love to add new friends to our daily adventures. I currently work full time, but that has little impact on my time with the dogs. We spend evening getting all our energy out with play time! I have a fenced in yard, and plenty of space for your pup to relax when it’s too hot to be outside. The house is constantly cooling to accommodate two large and furry pups.
