“LOVE ANGIE!!! She sent us so many pictures and updates of the girls. They absolutely loved the backyard and playing with the other dogs. The dogs were exhausted when they got home so I know they had so much fun there. We will most definitely reach out to Angie when we need someone to watch the girls again!”

My dog has never come home so well adjusted and behaved from me being gone. Her fenced in back yard was an absolute life saver and Nicole's loving nature made Sammy feel right at home instantly. If you want your pet to receive %100 loving care while you are away then this is the place to take them! 5 stars all the way!!!!!!! We will be back for sure, as I will never board my baby girl again! So glad we found you Nicole!!!”

About: I've been caring for all kinds of animals since I was little. I have experience with animal all breeds, sizes and personalities. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with and care for their pets while away. I'm also a vet tech student and have worked with animals in a professional setting in the past. I treat every pet like they are my own family and provide updates as well. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, so I'll have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, medication if needed and lots of love. I always do my best to accommodate each pet's individual schedule and needs. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your care instructions and make sure pets always have fresh water, exercise, and plenty of attention. I provide a calm, loving environment and will send regular photo and text updates while you're away.

I could tell he cared - it wasn't just a task to make a few bucks, he cared about my dog being happy and cared for while I was away. Great communication and photos throughout the week as well. I'll definitely go right back to him for my dog when I need to go away again, and I recommend him HIGHLY to anyone else.”

About: I have always loved pets. Throughout my entire life, I have had both cats and dogs, and recently my family adopted a gecko from my stepsister. Pets have always been the center of my day, and I always look forward to seeing my little fur-babies, and taking care of them. With this I have been referred to many family friends to extend the love and care I have for my babies onto their babies. I will always take care of your fur-babies as I would my own. I also am very good at giving pets medicine, as I have done it for a few years now. I am a full time college student at UNI, and I love taking care of animals. Being away at college has made me miss my own animals, so I fill that gap by getting to take care and love other animals, and give other families peace of mind while away. I am super open to any environments, whether it be a fenced in yard, or a yard where I will need to leash the pups/kitties up to take them out. I will listen and obey any instructions the client may give, whether it be for respecting the pets, or respecting the house.

About: I've been caring for all kinds of animals since I was little. I have experience with animal all breeds, sizes and personalities. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with and care for their pets while away. I'm also a vet tech student and have worked with animals in a professional setting in the past. I treat every pet like they are my own family and provide updates as well. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, so I'll have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, medication if needed and lots of love. I always do my best to accommodate each pet's individual schedule and needs. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your care instructions and make sure pets always have fresh water, exercise, and plenty of attention. I provide a calm, loving environment and will send regular photo and text updates while you're away.

About: Hi! My name is Danielle and I can't wait to meet your four-legged fur-baby. :) I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. Plenty of feline experience too! If you have an athletic or active dog, I am the host for you!!! Trips to parks (on and off leash), and visiting nature trails are my jam. If your dog is less active, I can bring my activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable. I work full-time from home, but I have a flexible schedule to care for the needs of your feline or canine. For any scheduling concerns, reach out and let’s start a conversation. I live in a farmhouse with a few acres of land, so I offer lots of running around and play time and I always keep the water bowl full. My main priority is a happy and healthy pet for the duration of care while maintaining your peace of mind with plenty of updates and pictures. If I sound like a good fit for your fur-baby, I'd love the chance to meet y'all! Please note, I only board one family's pet(s) at a time unless discussed otherwise.

“Shelby was an awesome dog sitter for our pup, Piper! We found ourselves in a pinch and needed someone to watch her all day - turns out she’s right in our neighborhood! This was our first time leaving our pup with someone else - Shelby and her husband were great at drop off and then sent pics and videos throughout the day. I know Piper had a fun day and was in good hands. We will definitely be using Shelby again in the future!”

About: I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by furry family members. I’ve had a variety of different dog breeds — especially those labeled “aggressive.” Because of this, I know every dog has a story and is capable of love regardless of how they’re stereotyped. All animals deserve the same love and kindness as I would give to my very own. I have some experience volunteering at my local humane society & dog sitting for family members & friends. I have no problem tailoring to your animals’ needs and I will treat them with the same love, respect, and adoration that I have for my own fur babies. During the school year my schedule can be a bit hectic with classes and work; however, I can easily move around my schedule and fit in time to care for your pet. If you are willing to be flexible with time, I can easily squeeze you in! If we cannot arrange something, I will be sure to let you know as soon as possible to allow time to find another sitter/ walker. When caring for your pet I expect to find food with instructions (feeding time, how much food, etc.), treats & how many they can have, toys or puzzles, and any other equipment you want me to use when looking after your furry friend. Please do not hesitate to share any boundaries or silly rituals that your pet requires.

About: I have worked with and loved many animals throughout my life; gaining experience by working with rescues, shelters and non-profit organizations benefiting dogs, cats and horses in Iowa and Virginia. I have also worked in the pet care industry my whole life. I was a Pet Groomer for 10 years, have worked closely with trainers, supervised daycare & boarding, and have spent the last 3 years in Veterinary Medicine as a Veterinary Assistant. I currently share my home with Clover a Toy Poodle, Salbert a Standard Poodle, Cas the kitty and Mocha the hamster ❤️ I have experience in most aspects of pet care; dog sitting, boarding, basic First Aid, administering oral & injectable medications, grooming and training, and know that each pet needs a unique, gentle approach. First and foremost I believe in making your pet comfortable by sticking to their (and your) schedule as much as possible. By keeping feeding, walking & potty times the same, I can provide a calm and happy presence for your pet through a positive attitude and relaxed demeanor. I also enjoy providing enrichment for you pet through play, walks, games and treats. Pet care is my life! I am available most every day to help you keep your pets happy and healthy, and to help them thrive in their own, comfortable environment. From a walk around the block a couple times a week, to daily drop in visits while you're at work, and finally house sitting when you're on that special trip, I'm here to be that special friend your pet needs! Keeping your pet safe is my number one priority. From making sure doors and gates are securely shut, to triple checking medicine before it’s given and using an additional slip lead for walks and transport, nothing goes unnoticed!

About: I love dogs and have had dogs my whole life. I have been trusted by friends, family, and coworkers to take care of their dogs whether that be walking, bathing, or just simply staying with them! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I only work four days a week starting at 5 pm! I can crate your dog if needed or I can provide loves of snuggles if they don’t use one! I don’t have any other dogs in my home so they wouldn’t have issues with any other animals.

I am available through the end of the summer. Until then my schedule can be very flexible. After that I will only be available on weekends. I like to respect the animals space and not be disrespectful to a stranger in their space. Some animals can be more anxious or have certain needs of care that I’m happy to provide.

About: I love to walk with dogs. My dog Buddy and I have walked and ran countless miles around Cedar Falls for the past 9 years. I believe that every dog can benefit from exploring the environment outdoors, and regular exercise is very important, so I would love to make that happen for them. My schedule is very flexible so we can meet at a time that is convenient for you. My dog enjoys longer walks during the later morning time and/or at night with a playtime scheduled in between. Just message me and I will get back to you soon! My senior dog has lots of energy because we have exercised quite often together throughout the years. When we are not walking or running, we enjoy spending time on our balcony, watching tv together, and playing with toys. Buddy loves to run and play with giant bouncy balls. I would love to spend time with your pet and/or take them for a walk.

About: I have always loved pets and appreciated the love they give us in return. Growing up, our household always had a dog and a couple cats with the occasional fish or two as well. I currently live with two very precious cats that need a lot of love and attention. As someone who truly loves furry (and not always furry) friends, I understand the importance of taking care of them, just like how they take care of us. I am currently a student at UNI and have a few part-time jobs, but I have a lot of flexibility in my daily schedule. My evenings are usually the busiest time for me with various rehearsals and concerts, but those are scheduled in advance and are easy to plan for. Having been around pets my whole life, I know how to respect a pet's boundaries and how to gain their trust. I understand that I am a stranger in their home and that it can take time and patience for them to welcome me.

About: I have always loved pets. Throughout my entire life, I have had both cats and dogs, and recently my family adopted a gecko from my stepsister. Pets have always been the center of my day, and I always look forward to seeing my little fur-babies, and taking care of them. With this I have been referred to many family friends to extend the love and care I have for my babies onto their babies. I will always take care of your fur-babies as I would my own. I also am very good at giving pets medicine, as I have done it for a few years now. I am a full time college student at UNI, and I love taking care of animals. Being away at college has made me miss my own animals, so I fill that gap by getting to take care and love other animals, and give other families peace of mind while away. I am super open to any environments, whether it be a fenced in yard, or a yard where I will need to leash the pups/kitties up to take them out. I will listen and obey any instructions the client may give, whether it be for respecting the pets, or respecting the house.

Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with and care for their pets while away. I'm also a vet tech student and have worked with animals in a professional setting in the past. I treat every pet like they are my own family and provide updates as well. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, so I'll have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, medication if needed and lots of love. I always do my best to accommodate each pet's individual schedule and needs. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your care instructions and make sure pets always have fresh water, exercise, and plenty of attention. I provide a calm, loving environment and will send regular photo and text updates while you're away.

“Eric was outstanding - his demeanor with my dog was perfect from the beginning. I could tell he cared - it wasn't just a task to make a few bucks, he cared about my dog being happy and cared for while I was away. Great communication and photos throughout the week as well. I'll definitely go right back to him for my dog when I need to go away again, and I recommend him HIGHLY to anyone else.”

“Cannot say enough about these two but they took great care of Yasuke while I was away. They really cater to caring and loving the animals while they are away from their homes. The photos eased my mind as well. I will definitely use them again.”

“Adriana definitely eased our minds while we were away on vacation! Not only did Adriana care for our family 😻 pet we all love very much, but she also “looked after” the outdoor neighborhood “pets” that sometimes eat & stay in the makeshift “house” built to help them stay as warm as possible during these winter months!! She also went above & beyond doing some light housework inside & outside!”

“Rachel was great about giving me updates, sending pictures, and video. Overall communication was excellent. Our dog looked like he was at ease and enjoying his time with Rachel and her family. We will definitely book with Rachel and her family in the future.”
