About: Dogs have always been in my life. I volunteered at Animal Lifeline for 8 years and had a dog daycare of my own for a while. Dogs are everything and I’d be honored to love on yours. I currently work full time from home so doggie day care is definitely doable! My day ends at 3 pm so I can be that late afternoon or evening potty break or walk. Weekends have potential as long well with pre-arranged time and notice. Should your dog(s) stay with me during the day, I have a fenced yard and no carpet in case of oopsies! If you request that I come to your house I am very reliable, responsible and respectful. I can guarantee a boat load of scritches and belly rubs as well as time for “business”.

About: I believe that animals were put on this earth to show us how to love! The least we can do is return the favor ❤️ I work from home so I have all the time to show your pet love away from home! When I'm not working I have most evenings and weekends available to check in when they are at home! I have a Fenced in yard and two dogs to keep your pup company! I also have an XXL crate needed if that helps comfort them, so that they have their own space when needed!

I would recommend Kelsey to anyone that will love their pets like her own, she was amazing with not only my Puppy but as well as my cats! They love her and always look forward to seeing her. Very reliable, great communication and gets back to you quickly! I really loved and appreciated the pictures, charting on what they did such as walks, potty breaks etc.

Her dog loves running with mine on the beach. A great setup for more controlled off-leash play. Rebecca is very open and understanding about anxious dogs!

It has been a privilege to have met Ali. Her joy over these silly, unique, fun, and personable dogs is infectious. Ali helped to train my dog! Ali helped me to better train my dog! Ali excellent communication skills, easy laughter and a person I could count on. Both Gracie and I will miss her greatly as we have to move out of town. But between Gracie's nose and my memory, we will hope to get near her again.

What a wonderful daycare for our 11 month old, high energy black lab. Mackenzie had to deal with a lot from our Eddie, and she handled him so well. Her other dogs are such a delight, fun and happy!

Meghann was so responsive when we reached out somewhat last-minute and communicated seamlessly while providing care for Monte. Would absolutely recommend Meghann and we’ll be using her again!

Osvaldo, his wife and daughter are an amazing dog family! It was seriously like going to an amusement park for our dog. They did lots of walks/runs, playing, training and sent lots of pictures. We will be going back!! I'm am so thankful to have found them for our pup. They even took the time to work with my special needs son on training our pup. They deserve 10 stars! ?

About: I have cared for animals most of my life. I have cared for common house pets, rodents, birds, reptiles, and even live stock/ farm animals. My life goal is to become a vet and I have experience taking care of special needs animals. I currently work Monday - Friday 9 hours a day but will be home by 4. I live in a 3 bedroom apartment with 2 friendly cats that have both been raised around dogs most of their lives. There is also a park down the street that is just a few minutes walk. At the moment I do ask that if your furry family member will be a guest over night that a crate is provided for safety of your family and my own. I can care for your furry friends before I leave for work and after I return from work. I am also free most weekends and can watch them from Friday to sunday Your furry friends will not have access to anything harmful and will be allowed on my furniture. For their safety and mine at night I will have them sleep in a kennel.

Cory was able to watch my pup last-minute while I was in the area for work. I'm so glad I found him. He was easy to communicate with, and I felt more than comfortable leaving Carver with him. Best of all, I picked up a happy, tired pup who slept the whole way home. Cory will be my go-to in Des Moines whenever I need pet care.

Savannah was wonderful! It was Pipers first time there and I could tell right away she made Piper feel comfortable and at ease while i was gone. I got multiple updates and photos/videos throughout the day. She also used her professional camera to take photos; how thoughtful!! She also was super easy to work with and has great communication. My request for daycare was super last minute and she was very accommodating! She did great with my pup and we’ll definitely be using Savannah again for daycare😊
