Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!

About: Caring for people and pets comes naturally to me. I worked in nursing for several years before leaving to care for my father full time.between that and being a mom giving love and care comes easy. I have 3 dogs of my own, all of which are friendly and love a bit of play time. I am a big believer in fresh air and exercise. Let's get those steps in for your 4 legged family member. I don't work a regular job, I care for my elderly father and do some side work here and there. So I am available for walking or drop in visits at a moments notice. I have a fenced in yard and food and treats at the ready. Many leashes and brushes and more. I have 3 dogs of my own that love to play with each other and yours too. I can also keep my dogs away if yours isn't socialized to others.

About: I have taken care of my own and other's cats and dogs for years, from feeding, to exercising and of course plenty of clean up occasions. Not only have I managed a family home with both cats and dogs, but I also showed one of my dogs for AKC confirmation and graduated with another one of my dogs from obedience classes. I bottle fed two of my cats when they were infants and have cared for both cats and dogs into their senior, twilight years. I even cared for one of my senior dogs after she became deaf and blind. Just recently I helped usher my beloved 15-year-old cat across the rainbow. She was the last of my own pets. I have experience with dispensing oral medications and insulin shots to cats and dogs from very young pets as well as aging ones. In my professional life I was very organized, detailed oriented and practiced great communication skills. I will bring all this experience to the care and feeding of your beloved animals. I've experienced so much with my own and other folks’ pets, but now my two dogs and two-cat-household is feeling a little empty. So please let me offer my heart and hands to care for your dear fur babies. I am recently retired and have some on-going activities and appointments, but I also have quite a bit of freedom to determine my own schedule and be flexible. I have time and availability for daily visits, dog walking, or even in your household for overnight care. In your home I can offer feeding visits, occasional visits, dog walking, and if required, overnight at your home. Let's me know what you need to care best for your pet.

About: Hi there! I’m a full-time professional based in Des Moines with a big heart for animals—especially dogs. I share my life with a lovable poodle who’s full of energy and joy. We spend a lot of time going on walks and playing fetch, so I understand the importance of keeping dogs active, happy, and loved. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s a walk, some playtime, or just good company, I’ll make sure your dog is well cared for and treated like family. I’m reliable, caring, and always ready to give pets the attention they deserve. I’d love the chance to care for your furry friend! I currently work full time in Des Moines at a retirement home. I am usually pretty flexible with my schedule and can fit anything in. I have one dog who enjoys going on walks as well as runs with me every day. He loves playing fetch and loves chasing after birds.

Hotdog Troy is an absolute sweetheart with animals! I am trying to help my Australian Cattle Dog, Nala, who is a skittish ARL rescue, become more comfortable around males and new surroundings. Troy was very patient and first conducted a meet and greet with a hotdog. The next day, Nala opened up and was able to walk comfortably with Troy. He gives the best updates, including photos. Highly recommend!

I’m also available for overnight boarding depending on the night and weekends. Just ask if I’m available! I have a fenced in backyard. Your dog is welcome on beds and furniture. My house and property is very dog friendly for all types.

This was our first time using Rover and Monica made the process so easy. She sent us notes and lots of pictures at every visit. She took cues from our dog on how far she could walk at each visit depending on the weather and then spent time cuddling our Boston Terrier too (which is just as important for our dog as exercise). We were out of town and never had to worry if things were going well! Our family highly recommends Monica for your pet walking/sitting needs!!

About: I have experience with puppies as well as elderly dogs, from the excitable to the scared. These incredible friends and family are very in tune with our energy, so make sure you’re bringing kind and loving people into their lives- and that’s me! It has been a pleasure and joy to meet so many wonderful animal friends and get to care for them! When I used to go parties, you could almost guarantee I’d be in the corner having found the furry or feathered family member, often hearing “they don’t usually like new people!”. I love to hang out with these friends- plenty of pets, toys, and walks- and lots of snuggles if they want them! I was also given the opportunity to help move a dog to the Middle East when the owner was nervous about moving and having to start immediately, so I was able to help with the transition with walks, food, comfort, and discovering a new country to help him feel safe and taken care of- and help his owner be at peace that he was being taken care of properly. I also have experience with dogs with arthritis and seizures. I am always honored to get to spend time with them! I am an artist with flexible schedule and always welcome a break to hang out with some awesome fur babies! I also share custody of my preschooler, so depending on the evening, I may have different options for time and I’m available every other weekend! I take being in peoples homes very seriously- I respect their space and make sure to follow instructions for the safety of the fur babies and myself! As someone in her late 30s, I have found that cleaning up as I go and using common sense and past experiences serve me well when no instructions are given for different situations.

About: I love caring for animals, and I don’t take the responsibility lightly at all. I know it can be stressful to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll do everything I can to make you and your pets as comfortable as possible! I work remotely as a graphic designer Tuesday-Friday 8am-6:30pm. I can work from your home if needed, or of course I can drop in at specified times. I make sure to keep up their routine as best as I can, and give them lots of attention so that they don’t feel lonely or stressed.

About: I have 17 dogs of my own back home. They range from puppies, to senior dogs, of every size and breed! I also worked at NGO’s taking care of shelter dogs.

I am currently a college student, but now during the summer, I am available everyday including weekends! I am 21 years old, love dogs and have been taking care of them my whole life! I can take dogs at my home, but at your house I’ll make sure to respect the house rules and keep an eye on the dogs, play with them and take them out for their needs any time needed.

About: I've only lived with pets for a short time, but really enjoyed taking care of them in that time! I am a behavior analyst with some background in animal behavior, and very much enjoy being around pets! I have lived with and helped care for dogs, cats, rats, and small lizards in the past. I currently work full time, so care will typically occur either in the early mornings, or in the evenings, typically after 5 pm, as well as on weekends. I can also do overnights as well. I will provide services in the pet's home, no travel needed! I follow instructions very well, and will provide a caring and safe environment for your pets, including feeding, walking, and playtime.

About: Born and raised a dog lover! I’ve have 5 dogs throughout my life that I have loved so dearly. I’ve grown up taking care of my friend’s dogs in HS and college. I love to go on walks, so why not bring your pup with me! I unfortunately do not have my own dog at this time with my significant other, but I hope to get one soon! I am a teacher who is taking a small step back in education to focus on my health. I know your dogs will help me A LOT during this transition, and they will be under great care. I currently live in an apartment in Des Moines, so I am also available for drop-ins to ensure your pup is comfortable at home! I am willing to travel to different to parts of the metro to help you and your pup!

Dawn was my next door neighbor for over 20 years and looked after my kids/cats when I traveled. She was always good with the kids and made sure they got their wet food in the morning, the water bowl was filled and the dried food bowls full. As my cats aged, she paid extra attention when she cared for them. She took care of several different cats I have had over the years and all of them were comfortable with her. Dawn has always had cats and/or dogs since I have known her. She is a great mom to them and you can tell loves them. I would take care of them when she traveled and she always left a note with care instructions, I could tell by this how well she cared for them.

Julia is an exceptional dog sitter who truly went above and beyond for my fur baby. From the moment she arrived, she was attentive, professional, and genuinely caring. She sent daily updates with adorable photos that put my mind at ease while I was away. My normally shy dog warmed up to her immediately, which speaks volumes about her natural way with animals. Julia followed all care instructions perfectly and even noticed a small issue with my dog's paw that I hadn't caught. The house was spotless when I returned, and my dog was happy and relaxed. I wouldn't hesitate to book Julia again - in fact, I've already scheduled her for my next trip!

Jessica is one of the most intelligent people I know, with an expertise in behavior analysis; I've seen them train animals and humans alike. I've also seen them care for both plants and animals like they were their own children, even when it wasn't necessarily their responsibility to do so. They will be caring and respectful to your pets and to your home. They are also comfortable with less conventional pets like rodents and reptiles, in case you happen to have any small or scaly friends. I would definitely recommend them to care for your pets.

About: Born and raised a dog lover! I’ve have 5 dogs throughout my life that I have loved so dearly. I’ve grown up taking care of my friend’s dogs in HS and college. I love to go on walks, so why not bring your pup with me! I unfortunately do not have my own dog at this time with my significant other, but I hope to get one soon! I am a teacher who is taking a small step back in education to focus on my health. I know your dogs will help me A LOT during this transition, and they will be under great care. I currently live in an apartment in Des Moines, so I am also available for drop-ins to ensure your pup is comfortable at home! I am willing to travel to different to parts of the metro to help you and your pup!

Patient and professional caring for two dogs over a long weekend. Did a great job working with an anxious dog and appreciate the extra effort to make them feel comfortable.
