“Myle continues to take excellent care of our pup even though she has watched her before. Fantastic communication and tender care. We’ve already booked with her again!”

Betsy W.

“Amanda’s communication was excellent and we discussed my dog’s feeding schedule and needs and she made sure to accommodate. I also received several cute photos during his stay. I could tell he was happy when I went to pick him up. Definitely recommend!”

Lee W.

“Kat was amazing with my two pups. Regular walks, regular pictures, updates, all the lovings to the fur babies.. you name it. I’m sure my pups will miss Kat and her mom. I’d highly recommend Kat to other dog parents and wish Kat and her mom good luck and good health. Thanks once again, Kat🙂”

Chitresh S.

“Callie’s first stay with Tiffany was great! It’s always hard to leave her behind but we instantly felt comfortable knowing she was loved and well cared for by the whole family with lots of snuggles!”

Kristin C.

“We highly recommend Nate! His heart for dogs is deep and he created a great experience for our dog and for us! Nate went above and beyond and we are planning our next visit to see grandkids with our dog safely with Nate! Well done!”

Loren O.

“Everything went well with us and our dog Honey. We received regular updates as promised, and the pictures showed our happy friend well cared for. Videos showed she was having fun with other dogs—which has improved Honey’s behavior when we encounter other dogs on our nightly walk. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Amanda again.”

Kurt R.

“Katrina and her family were wonderful! This was the first time my dog has stayed with someone other than family. He was pretty nervous at first and I could tell he didn’t want me to leave but they made him feel at home. Katrina sent me a picture to let me know he calmed down and warmed up to their house. I felt so relaxed knowing he was at a loving home. I definitely recommend Katrina and will definitely use her again when we leave town.”

Nicole N.

“Ashleigh took great care of my pups, one of which requires plenty of extra attention. She had great communication so I always knew they were in good hands.”

Mark S.

“Quimyia is great. She was available on short notice. Her dog is super friendly. While I was gone she took multiple pics and videos while providing updates. My puppy came home happy and clean!”

Tacarra B.

“Faye and Robert helped us out with a last minute sitter for Kaia. They sent us timely pictures and updates. Kaia enjoyed her stay and was well cared for during her stay!”

Tony J.

“Char was so warm, sensitive and welcoming to my pet, Roxi. Although Roxi is no longer with us, makes me especially appreciate the care and love Char gave to her. ❤️”

Luana S.

“Tori has been hands down AMAZING with our pups! We have a 6 year old springer spaniel and a 6 month old husky/German shepherd mix! They get along well with her dogs and they love the fenced yard and all the attention!”

About: Family and Friends have called me the “dog whisperer”, because I am able to connect with their pets so easily. I feel pets are such a big part of your family; your baby, your little one, or your child almost. You would be entrusting me with the care of this most precious part of your family. I love to be down on the floor giving the fur babies my undivided attention … whether it be petting, playing, belly scratching, brushing, or loving on your fur baby. I Love to be face-to-face and making a connection with the pets. I am also a walker myself, so I I love to be outside walking your pets. I work from home and my schedule is extremely flexible. My schedule is able to be put on hold for periods of time, if more time and attention are required or needed. I am able to leave to walk your fur baby, pet-sit at your place, or take care of your fur baby at my home. Pet care is as on-hands and giving as much attention to your fur baby as you wish. I am ready to love them as much as they want and need. I do live in an apartment with places surrounding the building to take dogs outside to potty. There is a new dog park just a block from where I reside. My building is a secure building that is locked with cameras everywhere in the hallways. There are long hallways in my building with very few residents and lots of room to run inside when weather outside is not good. I am able to leave as often as needed to walk dogs. Also, I am able to care for your fur babies in their own home or at my residence.

About: We love dogs and your little one will receive lots of love and one on one attention as we welcome him or her into our home. Our little Ronnie loves to play with dogs his own size or smaller. We don't have a fenced in yard, which means we will always be playing with and alongside your dog keeping him or her safe and happy and comfortable. We love to walk your dog also so he or she will get plenty of potty breaks and time to smell and get to know our neighborhood! We only care for one dog at a time, besides our own little guy Ronnie... so the two will become best friends! Faye is a full-time stay at home dog mom and my husband Rob helps take over dog care responsibilities after and before he goes to work. We make it a team effort so your dog will always have his or her needs met and get maximum love and attention. Safety comes first with your pet. We have a home that is safe and perfect for your little dog. We will welcome them into our family and treat them gently and with compassion... realizing that it's tough being away from your owners for a few days. We will love your puppy as much as we love our own Ronnie!

“Great! I felt safe leaving my 7 months puppy with him. Really caring, loving and asked questions to make sure my puppy got the care that I wanted exactly!”

About: I love dogs! I have grown up with dogs and had my own or as long as I can remember. I am attentive, detailed, consistent, and reliable. I provide quality care and take great care of your dogs. Also included is doggy doo pickup when I drop in at your home. I will also keep a written log of your dog’s feeding and bathroom schedule so that you know how he or she did. I am available every day of the week. My children are older and also trained in dog care. My home is safe, spacious, and loving. I am flexible on times. Thank you for considering my pet sitting and drop-in service. We service the Cedar Rapids, Center Point, Independence, and Vinton areas. I hope you consider my service!

About: I've taken care of dogs specifically since I was like 5. Whether it was a friend's dog, a family members or my own. Cats I have taken care of since I was 8. Changing litter? Done. Walking dogs? Done. Training? I do that too! I actually trained my own service dog who has since retired. Feed and water? Of course! Gotta get the essentials. Following directions, I will follow how YOU want your pet(s) taken care of. I have dealt with chihuahuas to great Danes to dogs bigger than that! No animal is too small. I will pick up messes, play with them, train them if you want, and obviously feed and water them. I can even stay over night with a pet if needed! I know some pets need extra support when their humans are a away, and I understand that may mean me staying over night. I have two dogs and two cats. I take care of the two dogs on a daily basis. Cats? Not so much but I do help out when asked as they are not actually mine but my roommates. I take my dogs out at LEAST 3 times a day typically more in warmer weather. But I take them out at least once when I wake up, once after or before lunch, and once before bed after they've ate their dinner. My dogs have stomach issues and only eat once a day near dinner time for me. I get them out more often to play now that its warming up outside In my clients home, as I don't do boarding at my own home, I can bring my own dog if asked for a play buddy but I would like a copy or to see the vaccination records to be safe. I will make sure the animals get some time to play and have plenty of attention while I am there. I will make sure dogs get outside to potty on either the specified schedule from my client or on a schedule I am able to run, but they will get out as much as I can make happen. Cats I'll make sure get some play time, if you're the kind of cat person who let's their cat out on a catio or leash or trust your cat out on its own for a bit I can make those happen too. I will make sure they have fresh litter when needed/requested. I will make sure both cats and dogs have fresh water and food on a schedule determined by the owner or when its needing refilled/changed.

I enjoy spending time with animals, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walking, playing, feeding, or giving them attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, patient, and happy to follow each owner’s instructions so their pets receive the best care possible. NOTICE-My boyfriend and me tend to work together sometimes to also help care for your pet together! I’m flexible and will do my best to work around your pet’s routine. I’m available on most weekdays, evenings, and weekends, and I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal schedule. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will always follow your care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, and playtime. I have unfenced backyard although I have a long lead in the backyard so pets can comfortable be safe outside if wanted. I also have a crate if needed to be crated. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind.

“Our experience with Jamie was fantastic. This was our first time utilizing Rover services for our dog Ruby. Jamie sent pictures and updates each day. It was such a reassurance knowing Ruby was so well cared for and loved. I highly recommend Jamie!!”

“Paul and his son did a 10 star job of watching my Rowdy, a Golden Retriever. Rowdy is over 10 years old in human years which makes him over 70 in dog years. In all that time, this is actually the first time I’ve ever boarded Rowdy. That alone tells you how protected he is-rarely is he out of my sight. I am so thankful that I chose Paul to watch over Rowdy. I hit a home run for sure! Paul was so thorough and heartfelt in his care of Rowdy, for he kept me in the loop, he touched base with me through the app consistently, and sent me pictures of Rowdy, at play and during movie time. I could not have been paired up with anybody more well equipped than Paul and his family. It touched my heart when Paul mentioned that he recently lost his pet companion of many years, and that this time with Rowdy helped fill the void and gave him that sense of companionship once again. Paul is the real deal and he went above and beyond in his caretaking of my best friend, and he did it with compassion and a whole lot of heart. One couldn’t ask for a more genuine caretaker for their pet! Thank you Paul for helping me in this situation, you are most appreciated!”

About: Dog sitting is more than potty breaks and bowls of kibble, it's loving an animal like they're your own, and I'm the best at what I do! I've had dogs all my life, and in addition to personal pet care I've worked in the pet business from the very beginning of my career. I've got a background in the veterinary world as well as a tour through the doggy boarding, daycare, and even training! I've done all the training and certifications to make me the very best in the industry! I understand the needs and behaviors of different dogs and can provide appropriate care based on their age, breed, and individual personality. I've got you covered down the very last detail! Your furry friend needs medication? I'm certified to administer everything from pills to insulin shots! Specialty diet? I'm minding every detail! Working with me is giving your dog a best friend who cares about them, from the tip of their nose to the top of their tail! I'm a stay at home wife, so I'm available all day every day to give your animal all the attention in the world! When you book with me you get the best of the best! If I'm in your home I'm a well mannered guest, I make the bed, do the dishes, and take out the trash. I leave it how you left it, my goal is for you to question if I was even there! When in my own home your animals have the run of our home during the day and a comfortable bed at night! I have two well socialized, well trained, pups who love to play but know when to settle and relax. We do kennel our dogs for their own comfort as they get restless when alone, but I offer a kennel free boarding experience!

“She was awesome with Cooper. We had a couple bumps in the process but she was suppppper understanding and flexible. Would definitely recommend!”
