About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I've walked and sat my neighbors, brothers, and family friends dogs and cats whenever they leave town or want to have a day trip. I'm currently working a part time job and going to school in the fall. Pet sitting is one of the ways I like to use my free time. It also fits in my schedule very well. I know every animal is different. I like to get to know them better and build there trust by playing with them or taking them on a walk.

“She is fantastic!! She's patient and very caring. I don't trust too many people, but I completely trust her. She took amazing care of my dog and spent some extra time with her when she was sad. Just an incredible young lady, and I highly recommend her.”


“Shayla was a great sitter for my 2 pups. She took them for walks and even helped assist when one of them had an accident. Would highly recommend as a dog sitter.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 14 years old. For my 14th birthday I asked for a dog and we named him max. Max was a Maltese and he grew up with epilepsy and sadly passed away when he was 5 years old from the disease. I now have two 3 year old dogs one is named Charlie and he is a lab mix the other is named king who we recently adopted from the shelter and he is a pit mix. I am well experienced caring for all kinds of pups! I am currently trying to build up my customer base for my new dog walking business called QC Paws On The Go. So I am very dedicated to finding people who need a little extra help making sure their pup gets everything they need on a daily basis! I can only offer services at the clients home. Unfortunately my newly adopted dog named king is quite reactive and territorial due to his troubled past of abuse and neglect. I can offer daily walks or if your pup likes to stay at home I can come by and get some play time in the yard and any other care that is needed!

“They were amazing with my dog, Cash! They stayed right to his schedule and he LOVED having them come visit.”


About: With 5 years of animal shelter experience at the Animal Aid Humane Society, and 1 year of dog boarding and daycare experience at Wags Pet Resorts in Ankeny, as well as countless years of personal pet ownership, I have more than enough knowledge to provide safe pet care for pets of all ages and sizes. I currently work part time as a barista, but have my schedule set in a way that I never work more than 7 hours at a time, so I will always be able to check in on dogs at least three times a day. I keep my summer availability frequently updated, but I will also be moving back to Ames August 1st and therefore won’t be able to do Quad Cities jobs from then until December. When it comes to providing care in a client's home, I like to abide by the client's guidelines first and foremost. As for my personal preferences, I aim to provide all client pets with enriching playtime, as well as one to two walks a day in suitable weather. I am also happy to indulge animals in snuggling if they are comfortable with it!

“Once again Erica provided exceptional care for our two dogs. Very dependable! Very comforting to know our dogs are being well cared for when we are away from home.”


“She was great! Will use her again for sure.”


“April is the BEST!!!”


About: Hi! We’re Lindsay and Matt, just a couple of 30yos who love dogs! Lindsay has always had dogs in her family and always will. She’s been caring for dogs ever since she was little and she has a knack for training them too! Her family loves to send their new pups to her whenever one joins the family. Matt adopted his first dog, Lola, when she was 6 months old and inspired his mom to get a dog of her own. We got to spend 8 wonderful years with Lola, part of that time was learning how to support her in her new life as a tripawed. In our families we currently have 6 dogs (4M & 2F) altogether at family holidays. In our home we have an 8yo male Corgi, Thor and earlier this year we added Stella, a Golden Retriever. Our dream would be to one day run a sanctuary for all kinds of animals 💜 Lindsay’s schedule has some flexibility as she can work from home, Monday through Friday. Matt works Monday through Thursday with some Fridays working from home. Currently, since Stella is still pretty young, we don’t leave her kenneled more than 4-5 hours at a time. So any pets in our care would be in good company the majority of the time. We have a privacy fenced in yard with friendly puppers to keep your pet company if they need some socialization. We have the availability to crate XS to Large breeds, as well as give them their own space within eyesight and earshot if needed. We respect whatever care and rules you may have for your fur baby in your home as well as visiting ours, for example: “fur baby isn’t allowed on furniture at home so please don’t encourage them on yours”. Our pups are big snugglers so they cuddle on the couch with us often.

I am on summer break so I have some decent flexibility in my schedule to drop in for feedings, walks or playtime. Ideally this would not be a daily service but I am open to 1-3 days per week of regular visits or random day drop ins each week.

“Olivia was excellent”


“Dana did and excellent job doing drop in visits for our two cats. We’ve booked her twice for our cats and have been happy both times. Shes punctual, sends pictures/updates, and everything was clean and well taken care of when we came home. We will definitely continue to use her to care for our cats in the future.”


About: I’ve taken care of family, friends, and my own pets since I was 12 years old, and have 3+ years of experience working in a boarding facility where I learned how to take care and love all kinds of dogs! I currently work at my local animal shelter where I have learned tons of valuable experience regarding both cats and dogs, and how to go above and beyond for them! I currently work full-time at an animal shelter, and I am available to take care of your pups for early morning, and evening to late night visits! I ensure great pet care inside of your home while giving your pup undivided attention and care, while keeping the space neat and tidy so you have no stress to come home to!

About: We have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a gentler touch. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or medication, we are comfortable handling a wide range of needs. We are also comfortable administering medications, including giving injections when necessary. Our top goal is always to provide safe, compassionate, and reliable care, so your pets feel loved and comfortable while you're away. Chelsea works a full-time job from 8 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday, but pet care is a passion I make time for outside of work hours. I'm available for early morning, evening, and weekend visits or walks, and I’m happy to check in on your fur babies before or after my workday. Whether it’s a quick potty break, playtime, feeding, or some much-needed cuddles, I’ll make sure your pets are well cared for and feel loved even when you’re not home. Alicia has much more free time and is available to pop in when Chelsea is not! We have you covered! When you book us for pet sitting, we will come to your home to provide your pup with personalized, stress-free care in their own familiar space. We know how important it is for dogs to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, so we stick to their routine as closely as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and all the love and attention they’re used to. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a longer trip, you can count on us to treat your home with respect and your dog like one of our own!
