About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other furry friends since I was 7. Many of my friends and family have entrusted me with taking care of their pets. I have dealt with a wide range of dogs, no matter the age, size, or breed. I am capable of handling more than one dog at once and have had hands on learning when it comes to reading animals body language. I have trained puppies as well as had a senior dog who needed to take meds of a strict schedule. I also currently have a special needs cat! I absolutely love doing this and the animals I work with. It brings me joy everyday and I can’t imagine doing anything else. I’m currently a full time pet care provider! I have completely open availability and can provide services from 7am-10pm. Feel free to message me about my current availability! Pet care differs from pet to pet but somethings remain the same for all pet care. Making sure pets have fresh water, feed when needed, potty breaks, and of course most importantly love and attention. Walks - depending on your animals needs walks can look very different. Some dogs like the same routine and route everyday while others want to just smell the whole world (or at least the whole neighborhood). Animals are keep on leash the whole time unless in a fence in area such as a park. I keep a close eye on them to make sure they are not getting into anything they are no suppose to and to keep them as safe as possible! I try to avoid busy roads if at all possible to keep animals safe as that is my number one priority. Drop ins - depending on your animals needs drop ins can look very different. Some animals are couch potatoes and so I let out to use the bathroom, and the rest of the time is filled with lots of loves, cuddles and attention. On the other hand, some animals are filled with energy, so they are let out to use the restroom, and then they get lots of play time! In both case animals have supervised outside time to keep them as safe as possible. House sitting - depending on you and your animals needs housesitting can look different for everyone. First and foremost, I am quite busy during the day, but I will never go longer than an eight hour away. However, I try to stop by at least every 4 to 6 hour during the day! Usually in the evenings I am home with them just as you would be if you were there. I try to stick to your animals normal routine as much as I am capable of! I leave your home just as I found it (or better) and love to leave some treat behind. At the end of the day I try to care for your animals as if you were there and to treat them as my own!

“Ashleigh is amazing as always! Super accommodating for last minute requests like this one where it started the same day and dropped her off within an hour of sending the request and was able to watch her the whole week. And overnight last minute one of the days! Luna is excited every time we pull into her diverse and clearly makes herself right at home! Couldn’t recommend Ashleigh enough!”

“Fantastic care giver for our dog. Equally fantastic person for dealing with scheduling uncertainties, changes, etc. Will definitely try to have her care for our dog the next time we’re in the Cedar Rapids vicinity. Thanks, Ashleigh!”

About: I've always been passionate about dogs and can hardly remember a time when I didn't have one of these amazing, loyal companions by my side. I've been dog sitting for friends and family members for the past five years, and I've enjoyed it so much that I've decided to branch out so I can meet even more fur friends. I also do dog training/owner coaching, and I believe it's never too late to teach a dog new tricks. I work part time, and most of my work is done at home, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with my fur friends. I have a huge back yard with a 6 ft privacy fence for ample room to run and play and even a doggie pool to splash around in to stay cool. My house is a couple blocks down from the trail for my fur friends who love to go for walks to get some of that extra energy out.

About: My experience includes behavior modification, rehabilitation and foster care. Since I was my daughters age I have been pet sitting and working with animals and would like to share the experience I work at home everyday but Thursday. We are available for dog walking and live close to a park trail and we are looking for a family interaction. Crate services, roaming and family integrated home. We are able to walk your animals and provide check ins. I know how animals are part of the family.

“Alice is great! Thank you so much for watching Oreo. Beautiful home and fenced yard, Oreo loved his day there I’m sure!”

About: I’ve owned dogs for over 15 years and know how important it is for them to be well cared for while their families are busy. We house mostly small-medium sized dogs and do not have cats. We’re also very conveniently located right off I-380. I appreciate instructions, great communication, and will care for your pets as if they were my own. I enjoy taking fun photos/videos of your pets to let you know how they’re doing. I work from home full-time and can easily keep them entertained and provide updates throughout the day. I usually walk my dogs every day and am happy to do that for your pets as well. I work from home full time and live in a safe, walkable neighborhood. Pets are cared for by instruction if anything special is needed. We usually let our dogs roam free in certain parts of the house when not home but also can crate if that is best.

About: I have cared for five of my own dogs over the years, as well as watching dogs for family and friends. In particular, I have experience caring for older dogs with mobility and incontinence problems. I also had three different cats over the years as a child. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I can stay with pets all day and walk/play any time of day as needed. I have a fenced yard, multiple pet beds in various rooms, two crates, and many washable pee pads. I have a single-story house so there are no stairways for pets to navigate (other than a couple steps when entering/exiting the house).

“Tag had a great day and was worn out when he got home!”

About: We want to make sure your pet has all the love and attention and will be very safe while you are away. We have no other pets in our home and your pet will receive 100% of our attention. I work from home so I am available at all hours. We have a large backyard with lots of room to play and we also take a couple of walks a day if your pet enjoys that! I currently work from home. I will be available to take care of your pet at all times. We can discuss your pets needs and see what is perfect for them while they stay in our home. Your pet will be part of the family. We have a large yard and garden they will have access to. They will be walked daily. We will treat your dog like it’s our own. Love, kindness and plenty of fresh air and exercise is what we do!!

“Amanda (and her family!) is absolutely amazing! We have a young pup who is pretty shy and skiddish, and most days at drop off, she is leaping from my arms to get to Amanda! It is the most amazingly wonderful thing to see. She sends picture and videos throughout the day and my pup is always tuckered out after a day of play at her house. She is an amazing doggy-lover (and person!) - would recommend Amanda a million times over!”

About: Family and Friends have called me the “dog whisperer”, because I am able to connect with their pets so easily. I feel pets are such a big part of your family; your baby, your little one, or your child almost. You would be entrusting me with the care of this most precious part of your family. I love to be down on the floor giving the fur babies my undivided attention … whether it be petting, playing, belly scratching, brushing, or loving on your fur baby. I Love to be face-to-face and making a connection with the pets. I am also a walker myself, so I I love to be outside walking your pets. I work from home and my schedule is extremely flexible. My schedule is able to be put on hold for periods of time, if more time and attention are required or needed. I am able to leave to walk your fur baby, pet-sit at your place, or take care of your fur baby at my home. Pet care is as on-hands and giving as much attention to your fur baby as you wish. I am ready to love them as much as they want and need. I do live in an apartment with places surrounding the building to take dogs outside to potty. There is a new dog park just a block from where I reside. My building is a secure building that is locked with cameras everywhere in the hallways. There are long hallways in my building with very few residents and lots of room to run inside when weather outside is not good. I am able to leave as often as needed to walk dogs. Also, I am able to care for your fur babies in their own home or at my residence.

“Great! I felt safe leaving my 7 months puppy with him. Really caring, loving and asked questions to make sure my puppy got the care that I wanted exactly!”

“Copper LOVED being at Lynne’s place! Her fenced in back yard allowed him to run and run! Chasing squirrels is his new favorite thing to do :) He ate well and was very well taken care of! Lynne loves animals and it shows! I will be a repeat customer for sure :)”

“Paxtyn has been a great addition to our little family for our dog lily. She always takes such great care of lily and you can always tell lily is so happy to go/be there. Paxtyn really helped out during family emergency and was willing to drop anything and everything to take care of lily and be there for our family. We absolutely adore Paxtyn and her care/love for lily as if she was her own pup. We can’t imagine using anyone else to watch over lily.”

“Jack loves him some Katie, and so do we! She’s helped us out so much already, allowing us to do things where pups aren’t allowed and all the while knowing he’s being well cared for and loved!”

About: I know what it takes to care for your pets so they won’t even miss you while you’re gone! I am skilled at brisk or slow “sniff,” walks depending on the needs of your pet. I’m comfortable brushing, cuddling, playing fetch, and feeding/watering your pet. Just let me know of any special requests and I can accommodate your pets needs! I’m looking forward to spending time with your animal. I love to be outside, provide snuggles, work on commands, and give treats.
