Personalized care for your dog or cat - Packwood

“My Stoney had a amazing time, I had a short notice trip and Jodeci was able to watch her no problem, Chloe and Roxii were the great host! I appreciate that she tagged me in videos through the entire stay and I would book her again with no hesitation.”

“Stewart was able to accommodate us last minute for a few hours of doggie daycare while we met up with old high school friends in Ottuma. Stewart and his dog, Sophie were both great. Stewart sent pictures and had a large fenced back yard and a lot of toys for Maddie to play with. Callie felt at home and cuddles on Stewart with Sophie while Maddie napped among the toys LOL. THANK YOU Stewart for making us feel comfortable and taking great care of our babies.”

About: I grew up on a farm, so I've always been surrounded by animals and have developed a natural ability to care for them. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of animal behavior. I’m not only comfortable with dogs of all ages but also have experience handling puppies and providing senior dog care. I work from home, which allows me to give your pet my full attention throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I'll be the one taking care of your pet personally, ensuring they get plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. We have a dog at home and an unfenced yard, but we're just one block away from a dog park, so your pet will have plenty of opportunities for outdoor play and exercise. If needed, we can crate our dog to ensure safety and comfort during your pet's visit. We always prioritize the well-being of all pets in our care and will adjust our home environment as needed to meet your pet's needs.

I am able to do walks, drop ins, play time, feeding and overnight or longer term care. As well as cleaning up after pets and bath times. I have much flexibility. I’m able to work most days, especially with notice. The more ahead of time notice I get the better I can prepare. I have 4 cats and we do feeding time 2-3 times a day. We clean litter boxes daily. We also try to incorporate play time with each one wheneve possible. With clients, it will have to be at their home, I am able to do feeding, cleaning, excercise and play. As well as spending time frames when needed so they aren’t lonely for too long.

“Ali took great care of my 3 cats in Age 14 to 10 months. They have different needs but she made sure they were well fed and less stressed while I was out for vacation. I highly recommend her care.”

About: I have much experience in cat care as I have 4! I have lived with cats most my life and love them! I would be more than happy to hangout with yours too!

About: I have had my own pet sitting business since I was 10 and have watched and cared all different breeds and even cats! I have a lot of experience with large, high-energy hunting breeds and ensure that each pup gets enough exercise each day. My favs are the dog park and the beach! I also trained my golden retriever, Harper in agility! In my free time I love to volunteer at the animal shelter, to give back! So I have experience with pets with separation anxiety and those that aren’t friendly with other pets! I ensure all pet parents are updated with pictures and videos! I currently go to school in Iowa City and wanted to watch some pets over break! I am free for the entire break, Mid December-Mid January! Either in my home or the clients I keep a close eye on the pet! I ensure adequate exercise and keeping the pet out of trouble. When in the clients home I make sure that I am locking doors and can take care of other household chores like garbage, shoveling, and dishes!

“Zoe was amazing! She allowed us to visit our cat while she was boarded and was very easy to work with about availability. Definitely recommend for any animal that needs 1 on 1 attention.”

About: I grew up in house full of different dogs and cats (even a pig) my whole childhood. My siblings and I were responsible for their feeding, walking and cleaning. I have owned and cared for pregnant animals, multiple puppies and kittens, also senior dogs and cats. I have also cared for disabled animals. We have also boarded dogs for weeks when families take vacations. I am currently working part time in a nursing home so my schedule is very flexible. I would love to help you out with your pet. I have a large fenced back yard for your dogs to run around in. I also have two friendly dogs of my own for your dog to play with.

About: I’ve been a dog mom of 3 for 15 years and love to take them on walks and play fetch in the yard! Have a flexible schedule for potty breaks I work from my home so I am able to be with your fur baby all day. I have four acres of land that your pup can roam and play. I have a flexible work schedule and will be able to give your fur baby lots of quality individualized care per all your pups needs.

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember. In addition to my own fur family, I've watched several other's fur babies for the past 10 years. I work from home, so I'm home the majority of the time. That means your animals always get the attention they need, plus always another animal for companionship. I don't have a fenced yard, but I ALWAYS tether or take them out on a leash when at my home. I do like to give treats like kongs for added stimulation as well. I do have crates or have room for crates for sleeping or if they need alone time.

“Stewart responded to our request the evening before we had a golf scramble and needed someone to watch our 90 lb Bernedoodle. His little Sofie kept Reuben occupied and we felt comfortable knowing Stewart had a fenced in backyard for him to exercise.”

About: Your animals are in good hands here. I'm a warm, attentive sitter who genuinely loves dogs and cats at every age and stage. Whether your animal is young and energetic or slowing down into their golden years, they'll get unhurried, thoughtful care tailored to exactly who they are. Stays and walks with me include lots of outdoor time, plenty of snuggles, and real one on one attention. I also have experience caring for senior dogs with specific needs, including joint issues, anxiety, medication routines, and sensory changes, so if your dog requires a little extra consideration, you're in the right place. You'll receive regular photos and updates, and the kind of peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is with someone who takes this seriously. Every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. That's what I'm here for. I work remotely so care is available 24/7. Im around for walks morning & evening, and available to communicate and send pics throughout your pets stay. I provide extra love and care to make sure your pet is fed, exercised, loved on, and super happy while you're away. I will send pics while you're gone so you can see what a wonderful time we're having together.

About: I have grown up caring for animals of all types (dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and more) and have previously worked with a local vet to further my passion for animals. Many family and friends have trusted me with the care of their animals through the past 10+ years. I have experience with basic training commands that I have learned from attending training classes with my own dogs with positive reinforcement methods. I am thankful to have a work from home job that I can spend time with my dogs every day. I am generally off work by 4:30 pm on weekdays and am not required to work on weekends. I have one wonderful dog at home. My home would provide the ability to play with other dogs, relax in the house, enjoy time outside in a fenced in part of our yard or on the closed deck with country views. If your dog prefers a crate or a run for some alone time throughout the day that can be arranged as well.

“Booked for dog walking and I am confident my dog also gives her 5 stars. My dog loved Ali immediately, first sight. Ali is attentive to her and clearly skilled with her. My dog is intelligent and PARTICULAR about leaving me. Notoriously bad at taking commands from strangers. When Ali arrived for just the second walk, my dog was loving her and ready to head out at the first sight of her. And my dog gets long walks every day the weather allows, so walking alone is not the draw here. Ali communicates beautifully with me as an owner, does great follow-up when she returns from the walk, and clearly loves what she does. No complaints in my house. I don't generally leave my dog care to anyone else, but Ali”

“Our Teddy loves his time with Isabelle! He comes back ready for a nap! Isabelle is patient and kind. We couldn’t ask for anything more for our new rescue, as he works on training.”

About: Hello I'm Zoe and I love to be active and walk my own dog around the lake at home and thought it would be great to do it on my free time when I'm away from my own furry friend. I have dog sat for two years for family friends and have taken care of my own puppy for 4 years. I am flexible with times and days. During the year I am a full time student at the University of Iowa. I am friendly and patient with all pets and will follow instructions carefully. I would love to help out and take care of your pet as much as I can and am excited to have this opportunity through Rover. I hope to fulfill my services with the utmost respect for your pet and home.
