Doggy Day Care in Waterbury, Des Moines, IA

“It has been a privilege to have met Ali. Her joy over these silly, unique, fun, and personable dogs is infectious. Ali helped to train my dog! Ali helped me to better train my dog! Ali excellent communication skills, easy laughter and a person I could count on. Both Gracie and I will miss her greatly as we have to move out of town. But between Gracie's nose and my memory, we will hope to get near her again.”

About: Hello! My name is Rachael and I live in Windsor Heights! I’m happy to help take care of your fur babies! I currently own two rescue dogs and a cat (Baloo Galaxy and Amelia)! I’m happy to help with your dog walking and dog boarding needs as I am able! I enjoy running and walking and love exploring new parks. I have a fenced in yard. I currently work from home and my schedule is very flexible! I was raised with dogs and got my own dog after I graduated college in 2009. My second dog was a foster that I found in 2015. Both typically get along well with other dogs after a meet and greet. I look forward to talking to you soon!

About: I’ve been caring for pets my entire life and bring years of hands-on, long-term experience. My family has owned the same dog for 18 years and a cat for 10 years, and I was actively involved in their care while growing up, giving me a strong understanding of pets at every life stage. Now, I’m the primary caretaker of my nearly two-year-old Mini Aussie, handling everything from daily feedings and walks to grooming, vet visits, and administering medication when needed. What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I provide, plenty of playtime, cuddles, and personalized care, treating every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I own a dog and take her care very seriously, truly treating her like family. I make sure she eats two consistent meals a day, gets at least a half-mile walk, and receives plenty of attention and affection. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I plan to put the same level of effort, consistency, and love into caring for your animals as I do my own. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions such as medication. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their environment clean and stress-free. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care and peace of mind for owners.

“Heather was wonderful! She sent me updates all day and it looked like Bodey had the best time in her big yard with her other dogs. She was very accommodating and was a great help when we needed her last minute. Can’t wait to use her again :)”

“Her dog loves running with mine on the beach. A great setup for more controlled off-leash play. Rebecca is very open and understanding about anxious dogs!”

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.

“Kevin and Ricky were very nice. My Ollie loved meeting them and played well with Ricky. Kevin communicated well and I had no worries knowing he was caring for Ollie.”

“Jada is amazing, kind and understanding. My family had to travel unexpectedly for a funeral. Jada was more than willing to keep Ziggy. Also, I had so much going on from the funeral and getting things situated that I forgot that I was supposed to pick ziggy up on Monday. Jada called me and I apologized for forgetting. she was completely understanding and worked with my family during this difficult time. Thanks Jada”
