“We were in town from Atlanta for a family reunion and used Sarah for dog sitting our Rosie. Rosie loved her. She has a quiet and comfortable home. Rosie had everything she needed and was very happy when we picked her up. Sarah’s backyard is great. Rosie highly recommends Sarah!!”
“Taylor is fantastic with dogs and she quickly made my girl relaxed and comfortable. Plus she’s easy to work with and very flexible in terms of drop off and pick up times. She also got Margaux to eat well when she’s usually a reluctant eater when in a new environment. Perfect experience!”

“I can't say enough great things about Ruth! She took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we went on vacation for a week. She provided them with snuggles, walks, and social time and provided us with peace of mind so we could relax. She sent us a few pictures and even some videos! I highly recommend Ruth and we look forward to seeing her again in the future!”
About: I've been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember! Training them, walking, feeding, bathing, and playing are all part of the package! I am almost available all the time. The only days I would unfortunately not be able to see your pets would be on Sunday's and sometime Saturday's for personal days. I am very patient and try to listen to what your pets tell me, but not TOO much! I will always try and make sure your pet has the best time and will be safe 😊
About: Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but our goal is to make their stay feel like a fun, comfortable vacation rather than time away from home! We are lifelong animal lovers and have cared for pets of all kinds —from dogs and cats to fish, turtles, guinea pigs, and just about anything in between. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have continually trusted my wife and I to care for their beloved pets, and we truly enjoy having animals as part of our family. We board only one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention rather than being one of many dogs competing for care. Our four children, ages 8–13, are also huge animal lovers and are always excited to provide extra attention, affection, and playtime. With six people in our household, your dog will have plenty of companionship and will quickly feel like part of the family. We live on a 4-acre property that gives your dog plenty of space to enjoy new sights, sounds, and smells. For safety, exploring the property is done on leash, and the abundant wildlife in the area provides plenty of interesting things for curious noses to investigate! Your dog will be walked at least once in the morning and once in the evening, with bathroom breaks every 2–4 hours or as needed. During the week, my wife and I have the ability to work from home, allowing us to provide care and companionship throughout the day. We understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and we’ll do our best to maintain their normal schedule and make them feel comfortable during their stay. We do require dogs to be potty trained and have no history of aggression. We also ask that dogs be trained not to chew on household items or other non-toy objects. We completely understand that puppies are still learning, though, and we’re happy to work with them and provide the patience and supervision they need! Most importantly, we want you to feel confident and comfortable while your dog is in our care. We’re happy to learn about your dog’s personality, routines, favorite activities, and any special quirks that will help us give them the best possible stay. We look forward to meeting you and your pup and welcoming them into our home! When your dog stays with us, they won’t just be a guest—they’ll be part of our family No matter what our day looks like, there is always someone available to provide the attention and consistency of car for your dog(s), which is the number one priority. We also have a furnished basement that can be closed off if needed. Or a quiet capped garage and workshop room depending on the sleeping arrangements your dog is accustomed to. If you could please let me know of any special needs your dog may require or want.
“Angela was so great with our 2 pups! They had a blast playing with her dog Ellie and giving lots of cuddles on the couch and in bed! She also helped us out with having someone pick up the dogs and being them back so they could be a part of our wedding day! I highly recommend her!”

About: I've sat for many different breeds and species over the years. I grew up always having some type of animal in the home, especially dogs. I have two dogs and a cat now.

About: I'm a Dubuque-based sitter and lifelong cat lover — I share my home with 3 cats, so I understand feline routines, boundaries, and body language. I have owned cats my whole life, and as a physician I'm comfortable with medication schedules and detailed routines. Your cats get patient, attentive care on their own terms, with photo update.
“Greatly appreciated the care Ashlyn provided to our sweet old cat. This was our first time using Rover and all our apprehension fell away at our first meet and greet. She gently approached our fairly shy cat and he immediately showed comfort with her. We came home to a happy pet who, because of Ashlyn, barely noticed we were gone. She is a great communicator, extremely thoughtful, and has a huge heart for animals. Our only hope is that she’s available every time we need someone to watch over our old man.”
“My boyfriend and I went on vacation for a week and booked Heather to take care of our two cats. She was absolutely lovely, sent tons of pictures, communicated promptly, and was very accommodating. If you’re looking for a pet sitter, I strongly recommend booking with Heather!!”
“Jessica was amazing! She sent frequent and useful updates on my kitty while I was away, and was extremely easy to communicate with. I felt completely confident with her, and I will be using her again! Thanks again from Emma and Isaac ?”
“We would highly recommend Martha to watch your pet. She did a wonderful job watching our cat, Leda. It was great to know they bonded well. She kept us informed, sent pictures and left the house in tip top shape. We would definitely have her sit again!”
“I used Hannah for the first time. She was on time , considerate and interacted well with my pets. So happy to have found her and highly recommend Hannah’s services. You won’t be disappointed!”
“Samantha is AMAZING! She was so good with our high maintenance kitty and followed all of our directions. She even searched all of her hiding spots so she could check on her and send us a pic. Would recommend!!”
“Nora is great! I always know my Finley will get such good attention. He loves belly rubs and treats of carrots and she always makes sure he gets these! i want to wish her a very Merry Christmas.”

“Tamara was so great and sent pictures throughout the day of Loki. It was our first time using a sitter for our puppy and she was accommodating with ALL my questions. It was such a relief to not have to stress while I was out of town for work.”
“Mya knows dogs! She was wonderful for watching our Lance for the 2nd time. We look forward to booking with her again. Lance seemed pleased with his "puppy playdate"as well.”
“Our dog Oliver had his first Rover experience two days ago. It couldn’t have been any better. Angy has a little 5 lb dog so the two dogs played and cuddled all day. Angy and her husband showed genuine concern for our dog’s well being. Oliver came home a very happy and tired dog. Finding Angy was a big blessing.”
“Ann & Greg are very welcoming and are familiar with Ella's breed. Ella was relaxed after her walk and loves the outdoors so their property is perfect for her. She'll be going back to enjoy their dogs and property very soon. I would highly recommend Ann & Greg.”

About: I’ve always considered myself an animal lover and I’ve had pets in my life since I was a kid. I grew up with 2 Shorkies and one Havanese. I took care of them for years and I also pet sat for friends, family and neighbors. I love all pets but I have most experience with smaller dogs. I’m currently working part time so I will have loads of time to hang out with your fur babies. I am available for walks and drop ins as needed. I don’t have any pets at the moment but that means that I can give my full attention to your pets instead. I also don’t have a yard currently but I have plenty of places to go on walks. Also I should mention that I am quite allergic to cats so I will not be able to pet sit your kitties but I totally can take care of your dogs.

About: I'm a Dubuque-based house sitter and lifelong animal lover — I share my home with two cats, Oliver and Maisie and have a golden retriver named Mojo. As a healthcare worker, I'm comfortable with medication schedules, detailed routines, and staying calm in unexpected situations. Your pets get consistent care, plenty of attention, and photo updates, and your home stays clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I have a fully flexible schedule right now, so I'm available for overnight stays any day of the week, including weekends and holidays. I'm happy to work around your pet's existing routine — feeding times, walks, playtime, and bedtime — and I keep my calendar up to date so you always know when I'm free. When I'm staying in your home, I follow your pet's routine exactly as you leave it — meals, walks, litter, medications, and house rules. I keep doors and windows secured, stay reachable with photo updates, and leave your home clean and just as you left it. As a physician, I'm calm under pressure and comfortable handling medications or unexpected situations.
About: Although I’m new to offering dog sitting services professionally, I have regularly assisted friends and family with their pets, learning how important consistency, patience, and individualized care is. Being trusted in their homes and with their animals has helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail. I’m currently working a part time job where I have Tuesday’s off entirely and some days I am only working half days on certain days of the week. I am flexible with my hours and can be available most Tuesday’s and Fridays and part time on Wednesdays. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. I treat every home with respect and every pet with the same care and responsibility I would expect of my own. I follow instructions carefully, maintain clear communication, and prioritize safety at all times.
“Literal lifesaver. Has provided so much comfort knowing my pup is taken care of and in good hands so I can give the appropriate level of focus my patients deserve. Truly would be most without Ashlyns help! 🙏🏻”
“Jessica has been walking our dog for over a year. She is great with him and he gets so excited when she arrives. We have also had drop in visits that helped us out. Highly recommend her services.”

About: I own two high energy dogs, Josie and Stella, both raised from puppies, so I know how stressful puppy parenting can be. Growing up on a farm surrounded by animals is where I developed my love for caring for them, and it’s where I learned responsibility. We often head to the farm for extra playtime and walks, so your pup will have plenty of fun, exercise, and love no energy left behind! I’m currently in school for respiratory therapy, so I’ve cut back on my hours. I work most weekends 2-10:30. Then a few shifts throughout the week occasionally. Other than that, I’m pretty available around my work and school schedule, and I can’t wait to care for and love your animals! I have two friendly, high energy dogs who love to play! While we don’t have a fenced yard, we’re lucky to have country property with plenty of space to walk around the fields.

About: I am open to most pets. Cats, Dogs, Horses, Calves, Lambs, Guinea Pigs, Turtles, etc..... If extra special care or out of state, I do charge travel fees. I do have experience with older pets and young ones. I have been known to raise Opossums from the size of mice to adults. If that gives you an idea! I am open to new proposals and willing to negotiate new situations! (Unencountered situations when it comes to pets) I also House-sit, plants, pets etc... I do travel out of state to Illinois (Mostly the North suburbs of Chicago) and Wisconsin. This is where I have done house-sitting. Pets and Plants can be included in this care. I do add travel expenses, mainly for gas, when traveling for house sitting. I get up in the morning and get my coffee going and then tend to pets that are around. They get fed first thing, inside and outside. Feral cats seem to be present in the morning. Litter boxes are checked. Water Bowls. Mostly I go to people's homes and care for the pets at their houses, but I have had people bring them to me. I have an extra room set up in my barn if there are anxieties or stress with animals and they need a quiet place. I am in the process of updating that room a little more. It is heated for the winter months. I do have hand brushes and combs for extra attention and I do go talk to whoever is around. If dogs come, they can be walked. Although I live in a small town, I am close to nice places to walk on the edge of town.
