Dog Boarding in Sherman Hill, Des Moines, IA

“Kevin was incredibly responsive in scheduling a somewhat last-minute booking, shared photos of Monte throughout his stay and provided consistent updates, and treated Monte like his own. Will absolutrly be using Kevin again and would highly recommend him.”

“Jenevieve and her family became home away from home for our fur babies. She was in contact with me very often giving me updates. I hated leaving them for so long but I’m lucky that Jenevieve was able to take care of them.”

“Cory and his family of pets really did well taking care of my puppy and when she got home she was tired and happy for twenty four hours straight. She seemed happy both at drop off and pick up times; a blessing for us indeed!”

“Alice has watched our dog several times now. We trust her to take loving care of him, no matter his needs. She goes above and beyond! Great communication and pictures, helps us feel connected to our pup when we’re away. Grateful for her consistent care when we’re away.”

“Super nice, great communication! Received pictures&/or videos every day. Coco really seemed to enjoy herself and came back happy and freshly bathed! Thank you!”

“Lisa was a wonderful host to our two senior dogs. This was our first time using Rover and the dogs had a rough start adjusting (had multiple accidents in the home). Lisa was patient and was solution focused. She tried different methods to decrease their anxiety and provided us frequent updates on how they are doing. They definitely adapted with her help! One of our dogs is diabetic and Lisa helped us administer his medication injection as well.”

“Jaden did an amazing job with Jax! Jaden was very attentive and accommodating, he treated him as if his own. I also appreciated the regular communication and updates with pics/vids! Jax had some jitters at first (he can be an anxious little guy), but Jaden’s patience, high engagement, and care soon brought Jax around to being the happy pup that he is. Jax truly enjoyed his stay with Jaden and I know the little guy would be excited to stay with him again!”

“Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!”

“Christy and Erkham were so great! Dilly had a great time and were so thankful we found a trusted caregiver for us! Thank you Christy & Erkham!”

“Justin was great! My dog can be a bit anxious and slow to warm up in new settings. Justin was very patient with her and sent updates with pictures every day. Looking forward to having Belle stay with him again!”

“Cory took such great care of Bruce! He sent pictures and responded to messages quickly, and Bruce came home happy and exhausted. We are so appreciative of the great care Bruce received with Cory and will definitely come back!!”

“Jessica did a great job with my girl Chloe. Her communication was great, she sent pictures and videos and updated me throughout the time Chloe was in her care. She definitely spoiled Chloe lol, she definitely went through withdrawals and was so sad the day after. I definitely recommend Jessica, she gets 5 stars from me!”

“Amazing experience. Our dog gets homesick but Alexandra was there to help him adjust while we were out of town. He LOVED the big backyard and his new dog friend. Thank you for taking such care of our dog and giving us updates along the way - you went above and beyond.”

“Heather and her family were great for Tank! Having a 10 month old puppy can be a lot sometimes, especially for a longer stay lol. Heather and Tank did a lot together and he was able to meet and see lots of new things! We couldn't be happier knowing he was in good hands and with someone looking out for him, having photo sessions and making sure he is safe and has lots of fun! We appreciated that she would send us photos and videos of our guy while we were away. Thank you so much Heather!!!”

“Our dog Bella was so content and happy and got along well with her dogs. Sarah was great in all areas and sent us updates and photos. Will definitely use her again.”

“Elizabeth was awesome. Sage had such a great time with her. In the past she has not eaten while we were away, but she ate while staying with Elizabeth and her pups. She was great about staying in communication and sending sweet photos. I will be using her again. Couldn’t be more pleased.”

“I am so glad I found Lucia to watch my puppy, Daisy! She sent regular updates throughout her stay. Daisy was well-loved and well-taken care of. Lucia was willing to meet with us ahead of time to make sure it was a good match. This is the first time I have left Daisy with someone other than family or a friend, and I was a little nervous. But, I can tell she was so well taken care of. There were a few other dogs there at the same time as Lucia (a couple are hers and the other was another Rover pup), which was heaven for my dog. She returned home better-behaved and even sweeter than when I left her. We will definitely use Lucia again and would recommend her to anyone.”

“Knowledgeable and kind caretakers. My dog seemed to like it there and I appreciated hearing how well he did for them. The pics throughout the week were a very nice bonus (and a comfort). :)”

“After reading several stellar reviews, I decided to contact Maggie to schedule time for her to kitty-sit my cat, Pebbles. I wasn't quite sure of the time frame to reserve because I didn't know when exactly I would be returning home. Maggie assured me it would be no problem if I needed an extra day. I did, in fact, request an additional day because when I returned home, I was too tired to drive across town to pick up my cat. Maggie said it was fine which I really appreciated! Before I brought Pebbles to Maggie's, I informed her that I wasn't sure how well she would interact with other animals because there are no other pets in my home. Maggie said not to worry and that she has space to separate pets if needed. As anticipated, the next day, Maggie texted to inform me that Pebbles was a bit stressed and did not appreciate the other animals. She kept Pebbles away from the other pets to keep everyone safe and comfortable. Maggie was very good about texting updates and pictures of Pebbles throughout my trip. This was definately peace of mind for me. I have never used a pet sitter before. While on trips, I have either taken my pets to the vet, family, or friends have come to my house to care for them. I was very pleased with Maggie taking care of Pebbles and will definately use her again in the future! I highly recommend Maggie to take care of your pet(s)!”

“Amazing and very understanding family. They took care of Maxim very well and he likes playing well with his new friends. It seems our baby had a great time and we got all timely updates! Would definitely recommend this family for sure and we would definitely look forward to come back to Robbie for future. Thanks again!”
