“Brandon was a great dog sitter for the week and half we were gone! He gave our Wheaten all of the walks and play he needed. Brandon kept in touch with updates and was easy to communicate with.

“Me and my baby boy Stewie love Savannah! She took the time to get to know Stewie and asked questions to provide great care.

Savannah is very flexible scheduling drop off and pick up. She is a very caring and welcoming person and I would definitely use her again!”

His communication was excellent, he sent frequent photos of our cat, and he took great care of everything household, even completing an unexpected household maintenance task.

About: Not Just a Pet Sitter — A True Animal Caregiver I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up caring for dogs and helping my parents raise chickens, and over the years I’ve gained hands-on experience with farm animals including goats, pigs, cows, and sheep. I’ve helped with daily feeding, cleaning, health checks — and even assisted in delivering a baby lamb.Whether it’s your family dog or a small backyard flock, I provide dependable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind knowing your animals are safe, comfortable, and treated like family. I am currently open for any time of the day or night monday thru friday. And am available 12pm-5pm on sundays. I can somwtimes make an exception for Saturday's if I am given a notice a few days ahead of time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Animals feel safest in their own environment, so I follow your detailed instructions closely — including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise routines, and any special care needs.
“Our cat Misty had an unexpected medical condition come up shortly before we were due to be away in MN for our wedding and she required a pill twice a day. Ali was able to drop in to give Misty her medicine, some love, and us a piece of mind so we could enjoy our special weekend. We appreciated how easy she was to work with, her knowledge of animals, her communication with us when we checked in, and of course the pictures she sent of our baby.”
“She did a wonderful job caring for my sick and yet very energetic husky. Super nice woman and a very good caretaker. My husky threw a temper tantrum when she saw me walk through the front door instead of Farra 😂”
“Mackenzie is super reliable and I trust them to give my dog the care she needs and be in my home while I’m at work! I love getting the videos and pictures that they send me”

About: NOTE: I work weekdays throughout the school year. Still available, but pets will be at home without me on weekdays for about 7 hours. I have owned and cared for dogs for over 25 years. I have cared for small dogs <25 pounds all the way up to large sized Great Danes > 200 pounds. I have been fostering dogs for Safe Paws Iowa for the past 3 years. I am available for a large portion of the summer because I only coach softball outside of the school year. I am very active and would love to share that energy with dogs! Walking, jogging, or just playing in the doggy pool is no issue at all. I currently have two dogs of my own. They can play all together or be kept separated! I also have experience giving dogs meds as some of the dogs in my care have different long term conditions. Can’t wait to meet your precious pups! Please contact me if you have any remaining questions! I am mostly free over the summer and weekends. I run errands or make plans outside of when I’m taking care of pets. Pet care is my priority while hosting! I have a fenced in yard, my own dogs to join in play if wanted, I have gates/doors and a finished lower level where I can separate dogs if need be, and have multiple kennels. I allow my dogs on furniture, but can follow owner house rules.
About: I am a homeschool mom. I have had several dogs over the last 26 years from blue heelers, labradors, a lab/dane mix and most recently an Australian Shepherd. I've house-broken and crate trained all my puppies and we also adopted an adult rescue dog and acclimated him to family life. I've taken different obedience courses over the years and most recently am working on Rally Obedience with my aussie. My family, which includes my husband and two teenage daughters love dogs of all sizes and ages. I’ve got a very large fenced in back yard, a fun loving Aussie, and am home most of the time to give your fur baby lots of love and attention. I have recent experience in dog obedience and have house-trained puppies. I love to walk dogs and give them lots of attention. Because I homeschool, most days I am home and able to attend to dog or puppy care. Our two year old Aussie loves to play with other dogs and has earned his CGC-A. Backyard play or leash walking would be part of your pets care. On occasion we may go to a park and our dog often accompanies us. I have a large fenced in yard with lots of shade and green space to run around in. I have crates of various sizes to keep your dog safe and comfortable at night, when we leave for an errand or to retreat to as needed.
“Jaden has an obvious love for dogs! He is very knowledgeable about handling different breeds and handling them together. Jaden went out of his way to accommodate my schedule as well as my boy Duke's special needs. I wish I never had to be without my bud, but when I do I will leave him with someone like Jaden!”
“Angie was so great with our guy! She’s extremely accommodating to schedule changes and was exactly what we needed while back visiting family. If we come back this fall she will be the first one we check for availability!”
About: I've been an animal lover since childhood. If I can't adopt each one, at least I can provide a safe, playful, and loving temporary environment I am a stay at home mom which means I am available for your fur baby days, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Care at your convenience. I have 1 dog who are very precious to me. I lovingly care for her daily with proper nutrition, walks, and love. I proudly bring her places with me.
About: I have owned cats and dogs since I was a kid! I grew up on a farm and have loved every animal I’ve encountered. My animals are my family. I have experience in training, grooming, and spoiling every animal with love. After all, they only know us they’re entire life. I have two dogs so how does pet care fit into my daily routine? It is my daily routine! Dogs usually wake me up around 5:30 to go outside so we get up, first feeding of the day right after that. My dogs usually let me know when they need to go outside by ringing the jingle bells on our door. They spend a lot of time in our big backyard while I’m gardening or doing yard work. We like to play fetch and go on walks often. Nail trims take place every now and again when needed, as do baths. After a long day for me (naps for them and barking at squirrels) we cuddle up in bed for the night. We have a big fenced in backyard (an acre to be exact)! Can easily follow any crate or potty schedule as needed. Anything your animals need we can provide :) I am mainly stay at home 24/7 however sometimes I run errands and just need to get out of the house! Pet care is my daily routine! My dogs schedules are pretty relaxed. Dogs wake me up early around 5-5:30 and we go outside, come in and eat. They let me know when they need to go outside but typically I am in my garden most of the time so the door is open for them to come and go as they please. I always keep a close eye on all dogs when they are here. I follow whatever schedule is given me for other dogs so they are not thrown off. We have plenty of rooms in the house if they need to be fed alone. I love being able to create a safe space for the dogs to take a little vacation!
“Very accommodating on very short notice. Paige took great care of Cricket while I dealt with an emergency with another pet and I was able to rest easy that Cricket was in good hands!”
“Cynthia took great care of our dog, Maizy! She went above and beyond to make sure was Maizy was comfortable and engaged. Maizy can be a picky eater and Cynthia even got her to eat a full meal. She was lovey to communicate with, was very responsive, and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely be dropping our pup off with her again!”
“Kiah was great with Zeke. She took care of him and had a play date set up for him to play with another boxer. Pics showing him having a good time. Would recommend and we'll be back. 🙂”
About: I have been working with dogs since I was in fifth grade. I started off as an avid dog show girl and I learned quickly how to train dogs and realized I love working with animals. I started teaching other people how to train dogs when I was 15 and when I turned 18 got my license to judge dog shows! I have had dogs come to my house when they were puppies and I taught them basic commands while I watched them for a week. For the past few years I have done sitting in the dogs home, but now that I have my own pup I am starting to board here. I have worked with dogs of all sizes, ages, and with different mannerisms and I aim to make them feel at home in my care. I have experience giving injections and oral medicine, as well as caring for dogs who can not easily get around on their own. I currently work in West Des Moines, if you book me during the week for overnights I will be gone during the days but drop in over my lunch for potty breaks! On the weekends I try to stay at the house as much as possible unless you just need short drop ins! I will always make sure I know the best way to care for your babies! Whether it is always watching the door for escape artists, or double checking their harnesses before every walk. I want you to always feel and ease and I do not take this job lightly, as these are not just animals but a member of your family!
About: I have had pets in my life since the day I was born. I got my first cat when I was 3 and have had many more since then. :) Caring for my pets has become something that I have worked on and improved over the years - and I love meeting new pets! I own my own business that is run from my home and a downtown location - just three blocks from my home. :) My husband runs our household and is home or helping me daily. We have a fenced in yard that is big enough for the dogs to run laps - and three other dogs who adapt well to having friends over. :)
About: I've always been fascinated by canine behavior and have tried to learn all I can about training methods of all kinds. I loved to walk with my dog and train her to do tricks and how to behave around the house. Although she was about 65 pounds, I taught her how to act gently around my 3-year-old nephew. Sadly, she passed away a few months ago. I want to continue to share the knowledge and techniques I've learned while exploring the great outdoors with furry friends of all sorts. Beyond my own dog, I have some experience with dogs of all ages, shapes, and sizes. I have also done grooming like combing, bathing, tooth brushing, and nail clipping. The bottom line is that I am happy to do whatever care your companion needs. :)
About: I love animals! I was the go to neighborhood pet sitter as a kid, and have enjoyed so many dogs and cats over the years. I'm a stay at home mom to older children.

About: Hello! I have loved animals all my life. I went to Iowa State University to get a bachelor’s degree in Biology! While at ISU, I was a caretaker at the Insect Zoo, caring for and presenting all sorts of creepy crawlies. I have several years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles. I volunteered at the local humane society for several years! I love learning new things and am always reading up on how to take the best care of my pets as possible. I have raised many kittens from birth and have experience giving medications to senior cats and dogs. I live on a farm now with lots of kitties and chickens! My #1 goal is to ensure the comfort and safety of your pet while you are away. I currently have one indoor cat, Luna and a puppy named Winston. They are fed twice a day, morning and evening. They get hours of cuddles and play time and always has a clean environment to thrive in. My husband works from home, so they get a ton of attention! We bought a farm in October 2023 and outside we have 14 chickens. By the end of the year we will also have goats! We have almost five acres to run and play on while your pet is here. Animals in my home are treated as family members. Anyone that knows me knows that my animals are my life. I like to know every detail about your pet to best care for them. There is no such thing as “too much” information when it comes to caring for your pets!

About: I have lots of experience working with dogs with Thyroid disorders, joint problems, hip problems, diabetes, and special diets. I'm very flexible. All you have to do is ask and we'll see. I've had Chocolate Labs, Chesapeake Bay Retrievers, Poodles, Terriers, and Shih Tzus. I love animals especially puppies and dogs. I am also willing to watch your cats if you also have them. I wanted to be a veterinarian or veterinary assistant but I didn't quite have the grades for it so that's why I decided to become a dog sitter, a dog walker, pet care taker, dog lover, and pet lover.

About: Ever since I was a little girl I have always loved being around dogs. I have grown up around many dogs my family owned and learned how to properly take care of a dog from a young age.

I’m currently working on a part-time flexible basis as a receptionist, allowing me to easily fit in the time that your pet needs and deserves! I have two wonderful dogs, who aren’t currently in residence. When they are, they are allowed on furniture and enjoy walks and belly rubs. I’m happy to listen to your concerns and make plans to ease any worries you have!
About: I’ve had cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and horses growing up. Having a wide range of animals growing up has helped me learn what a pet is wanting and needing. I’m currently a college student, my evening can be flexible as well as my weekends! Willing to work with owners to create a balance that works for me and your pets. I would prefer to have your pet in your home! I think that will be best for your pets safety and mine too. I’m willing to do what the owner is wanting for their pets comfortability.
About: I have had multiple pets from mice to dogs so I'm well rounded in diverse care. I love to play with animals especially dogs theyre just amazing. Weekends, work days, holidays (if needed). I can house for multiple days. I only leave to get groceries or to take my dog to the park. Safe and loving. Will have a great play partner Sammy loves to play he would all day if he could, we go on walks, park trips, sometimes just a drive.

“Petes was super happy and well taken care of the entire week. Normally he does this happy cry when I pick him up from a dog sitter - not this time. I don’t think he was ready to leave!”
“My little guy Giuseppe had SUCH a great time with Buttercup. I received daily communication and pictures/vides. Robbie and her family were wonderful and I would highly recommend!”
“I seriously cannot recommend her enough! I was absolutely amazed by how well my dog adapted to her and loved her!! She is so sweet and an amazing person all around! Book her now!”
“Brandon was a great dog sitter for the week and half we were gone! He gave our Wheaten all of the walks and play he needed. Brandon kept in touch with updates and was easy to communicate with. He loved our dog like his own, and I’m sure our Wheaten would love to go back next time we need a sitter!”
“Kim is the best with my dog Stella. When I go on vacation, I don’t have to worry about my dog, not getting attention and being taken care of. I highly recommend Kim for anyone to watch their dog.”
“My pup Tucker had a great time with Stephanie & Shawn! They provided a good amount of updates and Tucker was worn out when he got back home! Will definitely stay in the future!”
“Me and my baby boy Stewie love Savannah! She took the time to get to know Stewie and asked questions to provide great care. She has excellent communication, sent pics and provided updates on how he was doing. Stewie is a small senior dog and enjoyed the company of her two dogs. Savannah is very flexible scheduling drop off and pick up. She is a very caring and welcoming person and I would definitely use her again!”
“We were traveling out of state and needed someone to trust Forest with for the weekend. Wonderful people who took great care of Forest! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great Rover.”
“Jolene is so wonderful and patient with our rescue Kara who is quite timid and anxious. Thank you so much for making accommodations for her unique situation each time we have to go away.”
“Alicia was responsive and took great care of Harry while we were away. He came home happy and tired, which is a nice combo. :) It was nice to know he was in a house with other pets and kiddos to play with.”
“My dog warmed up to Autumn right away, and Autumn excitedly welcomed her into her home. She took her on long walks even when the weather was not very nice. She kept in contact with me throughout the day to keep me posted on how my dog was doing. They became good buddies.”
“Janell & Joe ended up being a perfect fit for my miniature Schnauzer Gunther! We appreciate the quick updates and photo to set our minds at ease! Very kind and easy to work with!! Highly recommend!!”
“Sarah was excellent with communication and providing photos and videos of our dog while we were away. Our dog loved playing with the other dogs and we trust she was well cared for through the anxiousness of being separated from family. Will definitely book with Sarah again!”
