Personalized care for your dog or cat - Arimo

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Arimo
“Erin and her spouse are the best! They cared for Pongo like he was their own little human. He didn’t want to leave. Erin took her time and made me a video of Pongo stay and adventure he had with them. Within 4 days they was able to teach him to sit, stay, lay down and shake. I would absolutely recommend them 100 percent. Only if they watched baby’s because I would leave my 10 month old son with them. 😂”


About: I’ve grown up around pets and have cared for everything from Huskies and Labs to German Shepherds and a variety of cats. Having owned Huskies myself, including one with epilepsy and one with arthritis, and having watched a Lab with megaesophagus, I’m comfortable providing specialized care. I’m also experienced with energetic dogs and understand the importance of routine, exercise, and careful attention. Your pet will receive plenty of care, patience, and love while you’re away, along with fun, engaging activities to keep them happy and comfortable. I am a graduate student at ISU for pet care opportunities to fill my free time on school nights, as well as on weekends. I’ll be in the area for at least the few years, so I’m available consistently and looking to build reliable routines with pets and their owners. I miss my animals back home, and caring for other pets felt like the perfect way to spend my time doing something I genuinely enjoy. I’m happy to provide dependable care, attention, and plenty of love during my off-hours. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions closely and make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and breaks throughout the day. I’m experienced with energetic dogs and understand the importance of mental stimulation as well as physical activity. I always keep a clean, safe environment and make sure pets feel secure and cared for. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“Whitney was amazing, caring and loving. She understood the assignment of taking care our 18 year old malti-poo. We felt comfortable with Whitney and was able to enjoy our mini vacation. I highly recommend her.”

About: I have hands-on professional experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. My background includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering oral medications, monitoring health and behavior, providing enrichment and playtime, and ensuring each cat feels safe and comfortable in their home. I understand that every cat is different. Some love attention and interactive play, while others prefer a calm, quiet presence. I take the time to learn each cat’s routine and respect their individual personality to help minimize stress while you’re away. I also have experience caring for senior cats and cats that require extra patience or medication. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while keeping owners updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is in caring hands.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Arimo
“Chelsey did a great job with our active one year old mini golden doodle, Ruby. When I picked her up she was happy and tired - a good thing. Chelsey is so pleasant and easy to work with.”

About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats who need a little extra patience and specialized care. I’ve worked with breeds of all sizes, from small companion dogs to large breeds, both in my own home and through Rover. I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and keeping up with strict feeding, potty, exercise, and medication schedules. My goal is always to help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is being cared for with the same attention and consistency they’re used to at home. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and offer pet care seven days a week with 24-hour availability. I can often accommodate same-day bookings, making it easy to help when plans change unexpectedly. My flexible schedule also allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home has a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor play, and I always take the time to help pets feel comfortable in a new environment. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special care instructions. Fresh water is always available, and I provide high-quality treats made with natural ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about packing extras unless your pet has a specific dietary need or you prefer they only have treats from home. Every pet receives plenty of love, attention, and individualized care, and I’ll send regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Robyn went above and beyond in every way. We were traveling around 14 hours away for a full week. We have two dogs one being very difficult needing to be let out every two hours and high anxiety. While we were away at no fault to Robyn he refused to eat or drink leading him to become very ill. Robyn kept a close eye on him and when she became concerned with how he was doing she took him to the Doggie ER and ended up saving his life. Her communication was perfect, sent photos, texts, and called when needed. It was an extremely stressful time to be away from a hurting pup and Robyn was communicating every step of the way. We will be using Robyn again in the future and I can not recommend her enough.”
