Cat Sitting in Urbandale

“She has a special touch for sure. Our cat has a fear of strangers however, I received photos of Morgan brushing our shy kitty. Morgan was the perfect person to care for our pets.”

“Rachel did a great job taking care of Remy and spoiling him while we were away. Our pup is very timid and he did great with her. She also hauled in quite a few packages that arrived earlier than expected before they could get soaked with snow!”

About: Hello! My name is Sarah, but I go by Sam. Thank you so much for your consideration! Ever since I was a child, I’ve always loved having pets. There was hardly a time when I didn’t have some kind of companion in my life. Growing up, I had a variety of different pets, but most of my experience is with dogs, cats, birds, and rodents! However, I love all kinds of creatures (I’ve even had tarantulas)! These days, my boyfriend and I share an Aussie named Newman that we love to spoil. I currently work weekends bathing dogs, and I’m a former doggy daycare attendant and dog groomer, so I have plenty of experience handling pets of varying energy levels and temperaments. I also have some experience with pets that have special needs. This is my main source of income, but I do work part time (Fridays and Saturdays) as a dog bather, so please keep in mind that I will be gone for a period of time (7am-4pm) on those days. Otherwise, on my days off, I am watching them FULL TIME! It’s something I enjoy doing, and I’ve found that I get the most joy out of spending time taking care of client’s pets. Some day I do hope to go to school for something animal behavior or social service related, but I’m still trying to figure that out! I’m very understanding and adaptable to whatever schedule you’ve got set for your pets, so that they still have the sense of security that comes from having a routine! During house sittings, I ALWAYS offer overnight care to ensure your pets have someone to spend time with them around the clock. I always keep a close eye when at home with pets to ensure nothing goes awry, and I always make sure they are safely secured if they need to be left alone for a period of time. Water is always made available unless otherwise specified. I love to spoil pets with treats when I can but I’m very good at following instructions if they have a strict diet, physical limitations, medications, etc.

“Cory took great care of my cat while I was away. He was always on time and very professional. He sent photos and replied quickly to my messages. Thanks again Cory!”

“Katherine was great with my cat. She followed my instructions perfectly and there was evidence that Prudence got plenty of attention and playtime. The daily photos were a bonus, since I was thousands of miles away. Would use Katherine again and highly recommend her for her efficiency and compassion.”

“Dawn is outstanding! We were nervous to let someone into our home to check on our two kitties each day during our two-week vacation. Dawn made the entire process easy and comforting from beginning to end. After the meet and great, we knew our kitties were in good hands. She provided detailed and personalized updates each day and sent photos. While our cats are typically apprehensive of strangers, Dawn took the time to develop a connection with both of them, adjusting food requirements, brushing and playing with them. She even watered the house plants for us. We never worried for a minute while away. We feel very fortunate to have found Dawn and will certainly recommend her to our family and friends, Thank you, Dawn!!”

“Nejra was amazing! I quickly realized how attentive she was with the photos and messages she provided. She shared fun insight of the behaviors and play that our kitty exhibited while we were gone. (Our kitty had been stressed by a household of guests the weekend before but warmed right up to Nejra.) She was also kind and generous in helping me with an issue that was outside of her cat-sitter role. Thank you, Nejra!”

“She was awesome and understandsing”

“Emily is a fantastic pet sitter. She communicated regularly, sent reassuring photos and was helpful when anything unexpected came up. Your pets will be in good hands with her.”

About: I have well over 24 years caring for dogs. I believe a house isn't a home without a dog. We (me and my family) lost our dog, Teddy, about 11/2 years ago. It has been very hard living without him. I still look for him at the door whenever I come home. We are still heartbroken from his passing. Someday we hope to find the courage to love again. Until then we want to love on all the doggies that come to stay and play with us. When your dog is here he/she is part of our family. Please be willing to come by with your pup for a meet & greet before any reservations are made. Our main concern is that you are completely comfortable leaving your fur-baby with us. Here is a coupon for $20 off. Your Promo Code: TIFFAK87923 Your promo code is only for new Rover members you recruit through your profile link. Rules and restrictions apply—read our Terms of Service to learn more. I work for H&R Block during tax season, January thru April. I am home all day the rest of the year to care for your doggie. I care for your dog as if he/she were my own. We will go on walks to Greenbelt Park, Grays Lake, and all throughout our neighborhood. We can play fetch in our yard. Also, belly rubs are a must :)

“Troy helped us out in a pinch today and was able to add an additional drop-in at the last minute. Our golden retriever has a mind of her own and he successfully navigated her routine. I will definitely contact Troy again.”

“Kassy was great!! Attentive to my kitties and did everything they needed done for them :) She kept great communication which made me feel at ease! I will be reaching out to her again whenever we need another sitter!”

“Sarah was great with our two pandemic kittens! They are leery of new people but she win them over quickly. We loved the photos she sent after each visit.”

Rebecca R.

“Really appreciated Ezequiel being available on short notice! He made sure to keep me posted about the dogs and how his visits went. I would book with him again.”

About: I’ve grown up on a farm loving animals. I currently have two dogs myself and just love the opportunity to make a pet’s day part of my day. I do work a full time job currently but have plenty of time in the evening to drop in on your pet. Eventually, I’m hoping to make this more of a full time schedule. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I’m happy to let them out, take them for walks, spend time for snuggles or play and even feed them a meal if necessary.
