Brie house-sat for us while we were away for several days and did an outstanding job caring for our two dogs and two cats. She kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were gone. Communication was smooth and timely throughout. She took the dogs on multiple walks each day and made sure all four pets were well cared for and comfortable. When we returned, the animals were happy, healthy, and clearly well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and attentive pet sitter.

Lynne was wonderful! She stayed at our house with our 2 dogs for 6 days. She was actually here at the house with the pups keeping them company most of the time, which is greatly appreciated! She stayed at our house until she knew we were boarded to head home. You can tell she truly cares about the dogs! We came home to a clean house and happy dogs!

About: Hi! I'm Breanna, an experienced pet lover and proud dog mom to two amazing German Shepherds who are truly my fur children. I know how important it is to have someone you trust to care for your pets, whether they have paws or whiskers, and I’m here to provide just that—loving, reliable, and personalized care. Although I work full-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate as much time as needed to each pet, based on your family’s preferences. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages—from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets needing a softer touch. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with the care, patience, and love they deserve. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member—whether they purr, bark, or do both! 🐶🐱❤️ As a fur mama pet care is 24/7 at my house. There is always mud to clean up, coats to brush, and toys to shred! I will care for your pet as if they were my own and to the best ability as I can to ensure they are living the life you allow them to!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I have experience with small dogs all the way to Bernese mountain dogs. Currently I have a mixed breed named Arlo that is full of energy. We love to go on walks and adventure everyday. Your dog will not be bored and will be loved like they are my own. Currently working full time with the ability to work from home if needed. I only live 3 blocks from where I work so coming home is no issue. I am a early riser so my dog gets plenty of exercise in the mornings to wear him out while we are gone. I would be able to watch your animal any day of the week. I have a nice size backyard that isn’t fenced in (my dog doesn’t need) but have a chain in case your animal needs it. I have a very nice crate if they prefer to lay or sleep in one. I am mostly outside in the mornings and at night so your pup will always be moving or can lay around and relax if that’s what they prefer.

About: I have always been a dog lover since I was young, I have had dogs basically my whole life and now I will be starting vet school in the fall! I currently am giving myself a break this summer before I start Vet School this August so doing pet care, walks, sitting will fit perfectly into my routine! I take my dog and my sisters dog for a 4 mile walk everyday. Growing up I had all the responsibilities of caring for a dog, feeding, walking, cleaning, etc. I have worked at two dog daycare boarding facilities for years (Heartland and Cedar Run)!

About: Well to start off, my name is Caitlin and I've grown up with animals in my household all my life. I tend to make a very quick and deep connection with animals and I've volunteered for the Cedar Rapids Care and Control shelter. Tasks of volunteering were to walk the dogs, play with the dogs, and show the dogs to people who were thinking of adopting. I currently have 4 dogs and a cat and all of the animals I have owned were rescue animals. My promise to you is that I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own. People always say a dog is a mans best friend, but I say animals in general are more then that. They are family and every animal deserves to be loved on and taken care of.

About: My family and myself absolutely love animals! We have dogs and cats ourselves and have had for many years. Most of our animals that we have or have had, we've adopted from shelters or have turned up on our doorstep as strays so naturally, we took them in! We adore animals so much that we should actually live on a farm so we can have more! We call our 13 year old daughter "the animal whisperer", she loves and understands what every animal wants or needs and they love and trust her in return. She knows every breed of dog and everything about them! She's going to be a veterinarian someday, I can already see it now! Animals are part of our family, they have free roam of our house, can snuggle with us on the furniture or in our bed and we play outside with them in our big backyard. We live in a small town so it's perfect for playing outside or taking a walk. Our pets love other animals to play with also! However you take care of your pet, you can count on us to do the same! Just let us know what your pet loves and needs and we'll provide them with that! I'm very flexible and can work around most schedules. Available mornings, afternoons, evenings and nights for drop in visits to your home and walks and available anytime for overnight stays at your home. When in your home, you just let me know what your pet's normal routine is, their likes/dislikes, fave toys/treats and I'll make your pet feel pampered, comfortable and loved!

Maxwell has been a passionate advocate for animals for as long as I’ve known him. He recently adopted a dog, Arlo, from the local shelter, and the two are inseparable! Whether it’s walking, biking, fishing, or kayaking, they do it all together. Maxwell also fosters dogs from the shelter, showing his incredible dedication and compassion. I trust him completely with my own dogs and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter.

Haley was an amazing dog sitter for us several times. She truly loves and cares about animals and it shows! You will not have to worry if she will show up on time or how long she will be there. She always played, petted and snuggled our dog. Which by the way was a Rottweiler. He warmed up to Haley right away and she became one of his favorite people. I cannot recommend Haley enough for all animals big and small!!
