“Bethany was so great with our 2 senior dogs! They immediately felt safe with her and stopped shaking. Bethany sent me photos and videos everyday while we were away from our doggies. She also was very proficient in giving our dogs their medicine. I would highly recommend and we will definitely use her again!”
“Angie does an amazing job and you can truly tell she’s an animal lover! I picked up my fur baby after a weekend stay here and she’s been sleeping all afternoon she was so wore out from all the playing! Would definitely recommend! Also love that she sends a lot of photo updates!”
“Deirdre was absolutely amazing. She sent many pictures and updates. After meeting her I felt completely comfortable and at ease leaving my Fur baby with her. Definitely recommend working with her!”
“Jenny was amazing with our 6-month-old golden retriever, Winnie! Our puppy has tons of energy, and Jenny handled her with so much patience and care. Winnie had an absolute blast playing with Jenny’s dog, Remy; they were the perfect duo! We got plenty of photo updates and could tell Winnie was having the best time. We felt totally at ease knowing she was in such great hands. Highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Lindsay was terrific. Jason immediately felt comfortable in her home, climbing up on the coach and rolling around happily. She did a great job providing food and snuggles and walks.”
“Tyler did wonderful with my Australian shepherd!! He’s very young and can be hyper at times but Tyler made sure he was relaxed the entire time!! His beautiful wife and him took my dog to a water show, hungout with friends, and probably 6/7 walks in about 48 hours! His house was very relaxing and perfect for dogs to relax while you are away!! Tyler is definitely my first choice any vacation I have!”
“Emily was awesome to work with to meet our needs as a first timer needing dog sitting and with the meet and greet with Daisy! Daisy’s 5 day stay with Emily was great! We were very satisfied.”
“Kaylene was a wonderful host & made my dog feel right at home. She was very accommodating & kept an open line of communication the entire time, it was a great peace of mind. We plan on using her again for many more future boarding needs”
“Not only that my pups were in great hands and loves Kaylee and Nick more than their own owners, we were also at ease and stressed-free during our family vacation. Very clean, very impressed and very accommodating with all our needs.”
“I don't even know where to begin! This was the absolute best discovery for myself and Sammy Sue. Everything about Nicole's care was top notch. 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!!!”
“Eric is attentive, friendly and very caring. Our Pug loves to go there, and comes home very happy. Thank you for the great communication from beginning to end, the pictures during the stay, and always being so accommodating! You are awesome!”
“Chelsey took great care of Annie and provided great exercise opportunities for her. She also sent updates and pictures while Annie stayed with her. I would recommend Chelsey to others and wouldn’t hesitate to have Annie stay there again!”
About: I have been involved in caretaking pets through Rover, my private pet sitting business, and through local pet shelters over the course of three years.

I have a part time job but can easily provide pet sitting services. My job requires me to work 8 hour shifts two to three times per week. If my work schedule ever interferes with a scheduled visit, I offer additional visits that day free of charge. I love incorporating pet caretaking into my day to day life.

I am here to help you keep them moving and healthy while you are traveling or busy with other important things. I’m very flexible and willing to help however best fits your unique situation.

About: I grew up with cats my whole life, volunteered at shelters, and contributed to stray programs. My 4 childhood cats are all seniors now, one being a month younger than me, so I've had particular experience with senior cat care.
“Erika was WONDERFUL! Not only did she agree to watch my dogs SUPER last minute (I had already left for Chicago when my original plan for them fell through), but also right before a snowstorm! Still showed up as scheduled and even cleared a new path for them to potty (because they’re little). I also love that she stayed the full half-hour to snuggle with them and sent pictures and an update every visit! Will DEFINITELY use her again!”
“Kathleen was awesome and communicated with me. I couldn't have asked for a better person I didn't have to worry about anything and during our daughter's wedding it was such a relief Highly recommend”

About: My whole life I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats. I’ve done some overnight house sitting with dogs within the last couple of years. Im comfortable with both older and younger animals. I personally have one cat of my own. I adore all types of animals. I work remotely with a very flexible schedule. This allows me to have the time to make sure the best care is given to your pets. I have always been a very vigilant pet owner. Having grown up with many different kinds of pets, I’m well aware each animal has their own needs. Whether that be a dog who has a ton of energy and needs a more engaging walk, or one who like to take a slower stroll. I’m ready for whatever needs your animal may have.
“Jordon has done extended stays caring for my long haired cat, Oliver. Oliver really doesn’t like to be social with anyone, but me! Jordon sends pictures everyday and to my surprise some of the pics….Oliver is sitting next to and relaxing with Jordon. He is very responsible & caring. He goes above and beyond. I will ask for Jordon every time I need someone to stay with Oliver while I’m away. Thank you, Jordon!”
“I am a very nervous dogma (the mother of all dogs), and Jennifer S. is officially now included in the Circle of Trust in our family. She’s wonderful! The dogs did very well with her, communication was consistent and high quality. I would not hesitate to reccommend Jennifer to you! ❤️❤️❤️”

I’ll treat your dog like family and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve while you’re gone. I’m experienced with dogs of all temperaments and routines I am currently working part time so I have time to care for animals in the afternoons and evenings. I am also in nursing school but have availability on some weekends. I have a fenced yard which allows dogs to exercise and play without the fear of them running away or losing sight of the dogs.
“Rachel was GREAT! She was able to help out with our dog at the last minute when we decided to go out of town and couldn't take our dog along! Dozer has a lot of anxiety and doesn't do well with boarding, so having someone who could come into our home and care for him was a perfect solution!!”

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 grew up with dogs and love them! I am a current dog mom to a spunky 3 year old golden retriever. We spent two years training him in home and out. I am currently a work from home employee so I am happy to let the pups out at any time of the day and can walk them after work. I have a decent sized fenced in back yard for the dogs to play in! My dog is super friendly and will love having play dates. He is neutered as well!

About: I am happy to help you and your family in anyway I can! I keep my rates low so your pet can get quality individualized care at a reasonable cost. My husband and I adopted a black lab mix from the humane society. We are training her to be a therapy dog. Growing up I had a variety of small breed dogs. We also have a cat adopted from Cedar Bend. We recently moved into our first house and have a fenced in yard. We also live close to paw park. I can stop in and check on your furry friend, give them a bathroom break, play with them, feed them, and do any other cares you request. We can board dogs or cats on the weekend if they are potty trained and get along well with our cat and dog. I work from home so I am free for daycare. Looking forward to working with you soon! I have a fenced in yard. We have a black lab mix and a cat to keep your pet company. We enjoy all the extra cuddles and play time when we host a pet. I am currently working from home and am able to take care of pets during the week and on the weekends. We are flexible with pick up/drop off. We let our dog go outside to the bathroom and/or to play in our fenced in yard every 4 hours minimally. She is welcome on the furniture. If we are on a walk she’s always on the leash.
About: Since I was young, I have always been around pets of all sizes. My parents had dogs of all types and sizes which range from a large German Shepherd/Siberian husky mix all the way down to a cute little Cockapoo. We love on all of our animals and treat them just as family, they are our entire world! Throughout the time, I got my fair share of walking the dogs daily, feeding them morning and night (unless they were a puppy that required more) and just being able to love on them all the time! I have raised all 4 dogs alongside my family so I am aware of what to do in circumstances! Walking dogs is a great time for both me and your dog because they get exercise and I get to relax with nature and a pup! Caring for dogs and seeing their tails wag when their owner or loved one comes in the door is one of the sweetest things to see! I'm currently a student at UNI and have a part time job in Waterloo. Having the flexibility in my own schedule allows me to pay more attention and care towards your furry friend! I have a fenced in yard that is big enough for even large dogs to burn off tremendous energy as well as an open floor plan. This allows for the dogs to not feel cramped up and have enough space to lay and play indoors as well.
About: PRICES ARE NEGOTIABLE. As a pet owner myself i know how expensive our baby's can be. I will try my best to accommodate and work with your budget! Let me know if you have any questions. I used to offer boarding but with pets if my own i currently dont provide boarding services. But If you message me and your pets get along well with mine i will definitely consider! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

About: Hi, I’m Bailey! My love for pets has become a big part of my personality, as I grew up in a household that adores the company of furry friends. Currently, we have two loving Bernedoodles, three fuzzy cats, 4 calming fish, and a goofy ferret. Our home just doesn’t feel the same when there’s not a different creature in every room! Over the years, I’ve become the go-to sitter for friends, family, and neighbors as well. Through my personal life and pet sitting, I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and cats of all ages. I’ve cared for all sorts of animals, from guinea pigs, rats, and hamsters, to fish, turtles, and frogs. In addition, I’m well versed in young pet training, senior pet care, and medication of many types. That being said, my eagerness to provide does not stop at my experience, and I am always open to opportunities to learn about and spend time with new animals. I graduated high school in 2026, and I am looking for a fun way to gain experience and earn money during my gap year. I love nature, adventures, and creative endeavors of all sorts. I work a part time job at a family-owned restaurant in the Cedar Valley area, and this usually requires around 5 hours of my time, 2-3 days a week (Typically Tuesday/Wednesday, and Friday/Saturday). I want to make sure your pets get the care they deserve, and I will redirect you if this responsibility of mine conflicts with your schedule in a way that compromises the care you expect for your animal(s). I am open for daily check-ins, but my focus is on overnight stays. I would love to help everyone in your household stay comfortable during the occasion that you are separated from your furbabies. My main emphasis with pet sitting is well-rounded communication, especially in regards to you and your animal’s preferences. This includes any expectations you have of me, whether that be for meal times, activity, medication, or potty schedules. I am flexible and eager to help, but most of all, I want to ensure your pets stay healthy and happy while you’re away. In my experience, transparent communication is the key to achieving a smooth and stress-free sit. Nonetheless, I prioritize communication on my end as well, and will send updates and pictures as often as you would like me to. I enter every home with respect for the space and it’s inhabitants. I understand that to your furry companions, I am a stranger, and I allow pets to approach and introduce themselves to me at whatever rate they feel comfortable. I am adaptive to personal preferences, and will accommodate your pet’s needs to the best of my ability. Whether this entails snuggles and pets, enrichment and play, or walks of varying length, I am open to it all! I want to make sure your furry family member feels the pressure of routine change at the very least intensity possible. Caring for pets is a huge passion of mine, and I would be honored to take yours under my wing. Contact me for further information! At my current part-time food service job, I am occupied for 4-5 hours, 2-3 days a week. This typically falls on a Tuesday or Wednesday, and Friday or Saturday. These five hour shifts either start at 10:00 am or 3/4:00 pm, leaving plenty of time in my day to care for your pets. I also attend martial arts practice 45 minutes every Thursday evening. The only other time-consuming parts of my daily routine are commitments to family and friends, and volunteer work as a member of the nonprofit Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Of course, when pet sitting, your animals are my top priority. When I have your furry companion under my care, my more ‘’optional” duties come last. I am very flexible when it comes to adapting to your household’s routine, and will go above and beyond to accommodate. Whether this calls for 5:00 am feedings, or extra long walks, you can count me in! I enter every situation with patience, making sure your animals are first met with calmness. I believe that animals can be quite intuitive, and often feed off energy from those around them. Allowing them to approach me first, and modifying my behavior in response to different body language signs is how I secure trusting relationships with animals. In terms of daily expectations, I can manage daytime activities like walks, play, or trick-training, feeding requirements like free-graze, routine meals, or food-aligned medication, and nighttime expectations like kenneling, or staying in a certain area during bedtime. Just let me know what you and your animal need, and I’ll be happy to make it happen! Outside of pet care, I can help make sure your home stays in order while you’re away. I love cleaning, and if you need the trash taken out, the mail picked up, or the plants watered, shoot me a message! I am not only house sitting for your pet’s sake, but for yours as well, and I want to help ease the anxiety that comes with being away from home.
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. While seeking a job, my schedule is mostly flexible with the exception of some time to take care of my own dog. During the school year, I am a junior accounting student at the University of Northern Iowa. As my schedule gets busier, I am a great communicator and will dedicate the time & space to care for your pets or redirect you if I cannot give my all for your pets. 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: My name is Meagan and I have loved animals from the beginning of time. I have a rottweiler named Karl and a pit mix named Roman, so big dogs don't seem to phase me. I am in the process of getting my animal science degree from Ellsworth Community College with dreams of vet school in the future. I have a background of dogs of all sizes and ages as well as cattle and equine. I have watched family friends dogs for years, so I have a lot of experience when it comes to animals from other homes. I have never met an animal I didn't like and I'm not about to start now. I look forward to spending time with many more animals that will enter my life in the future.
About: I am passionate about animal care. I love to clean and make sure everyone in the home is as happy as can be. I will treat your pet like a member of my family. 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 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 3 dogs and a cat. I often care for my parents' dogs; one of which is Diabetic & has recently gone blind. Helping her learn to enjoy walks again has been a great experience! 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 and 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: Hi! My name is Emily, and I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with dogs of all breeds and personalities. I have over three years of experience dog sitting, and I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a little extra patience and care. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I’m dedicated to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I love getting my steps in every day, especially outside with my two dogs. I love going on walks whether it’s 20 minutes or 40. Since I have cared for animals my entire life it is easy for me to asses and adapt to any of your animals needs. I
“Baylee is AMAZING! She was able to meet with me right away, and fit Winston in next day. She worked around my schedule and made me feel super comfortable. Listened to all my worries and made me feel so much better having a sitter. Winston absolutely loved her :) I wil definitely be re booking with her for any of my needs.”
About: I love all breeds of dogs and have had a pet in the home my whole life. I love my dogs as my children and will treat yours with the same care. I stay at home so I have quite a bit of flexibility, I’ll do what I can to help you provide love and attention to your good bois and gurls while you are away Whether you need a dog walker, dog sitter in your home, or exercise at the dog park, I will play with your pups and give them lots of love and pets.
About: I have worked in many different aspects of caring for animals, from shelters, to a boarding facility. I also volunteer for an animal shelter. I pet sit for friends often and love to do it!! I am obsessed with animals, ask anybody that knows me!! ☺️ I have at least 8 years experience working with animals. I have also had dogs my whole life, and currently have a sheltie puppy named Rosie. I have mainly worked with large breeds of dogs, but I love all dogs! I also have a passion for cats, and love to analyze their behavior and see why they react versus ‘that was bad.’ Please let me know if you are interested in me helping you and your pets! Thank you!
About: I have experience with puppies to senior dogs. I love walking, and walk my dog approximately four miles a day. My energy matches that of a youthful pup! I’m an early riser, so I can get your dog ready to take on his/her day with healthy exercise! Most weekdays are spent at home, so I’m happy to visit and/or walk your pet to tire him/her for bed. I am a full-time working Mom, but can help care for your pet with advanced notice. If you don’t mind my kiddos tagging along, I have two extra pet-lovers who’d love to lay on some more snuggles and playtime! Dogs always stay on leash during walks and space is maintained from other walkers.

She also was very proficient in giving our dogs their medicine. I would highly recommend and we will definitely use her again!”
“Angie does an amazing job and you can truly tell she’s an animal lover! I picked up my fur baby after a weekend stay here and she’s been sleeping all afternoon she was so wore out from all the playing! Would definitely recommend! Also love that she sends a lot of photo updates!”
“Deirdre was absolutely amazing. She sent many pictures and updates. After meeting her I felt completely comfortable and at ease leaving my Fur baby with her. Definitely recommend working with her!”
“Jenny was amazing with our 6-month-old golden retriever, Winnie! Our puppy has tons of energy, and Jenny handled her with so much patience and care. Winnie had an absolute blast playing with Jenny’s dog, Remy; they were the perfect duo! We got plenty of photo updates and could tell Winnie was having the best time. We felt totally at ease knowing she was in such great hands. Highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Tyler did wonderful with my Australian shepherd!! He’s very young and can be hyper at times but Tyler made sure he was relaxed the entire time!! His beautiful wife and him took my dog to a water show, hungout with friends, and probably 6/7 walks in about 48 hours! His house was very relaxing and perfect for dogs to relax while you are away!! Tyler is definitely my first choice any vacation I have!”

“Not only that my pups were in great hands and loves Kaylee and Nick more than their own owners, we were also at ease and stressed-free during our family vacation. Very clean, very impressed and very accommodating with all our needs.”
“I don't even know where to begin! This was the absolute best discovery for myself and Sammy Sue. Everything about Nicole's care was top notch. 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!!!”
“Eric is attentive, friendly and very caring. Our Pug loves to go there, and comes home very happy. Thank you for the great communication from beginning to end, the pictures during the stay, and always being so accommodating! You are awesome!”

“Shelby went above and beyond for my kitten. She sent me many updates and answered every question I had! My kitten wasn't feeling too good at the time and Shelby made sure she was comfortable and kept a close eye on her!”
“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!”
