“Haley is wonderful! My cat is not really a people person but he warmed up to her very quickly, and my rover updates were always full of photos. Would not hesitate to book her again :)”

“Gillian has watched my cats multiple times this year and I couldn’t recommend her enough. She’s always lets me know when she’s planning on being there and she takes the best pictures. All of my cats have medical issues and she’s always ready to get them their medicine when they need it. I used to be so anxious leaving my cats for any period of time but when they have Gillian all the anxiety has gone away, especially since I can tell she loves my boys as if they were her own.”

“Madison was so great! Very responsive and punctual with our cats schedule. She sent a lot of pictures and kept us up to date on their activity so we had a lot of peace of mind while we were away.”

“Elizabeth did a great job caring for our two greyhounds. She was willing to work with some of my dogs' quirky behavior/needs. She asked questions about things that weren't clear, very responsible & trusting. She even came over quick to meet our dogs beforehand. She helped us out when our other dog sitter cancelled due to an emergency, and we are so grateful! Will definitely use Elizabeth again - highly recommend!!”

“Sarah took great care of my cats and sent adorable pictures of them while I was away. She went the extra mile and did an outstanding job. They were relaxed and happy when I got home - which says a lot. They are still pretty young and have a lot of energy!”

“Abigail was great taking care of our little puppy! She’s super sweet and responds super quick! She knows what she’s doing with animals and is great with them. We will be using her again! 🐶”

“Alexis did an excellent job with Snickers. she stopped in ahead of the date I needed her so she could meet Snickers and we could visit which was very helpful to both of us on the day I was gone she sent pictures so I know Snickers so I knew Snickers was absolutely in good hands. I will definitely contact Alexis again.”

About: Hi! I’m Teagan. I’ve grown up around pets my whole life and have always been the go-to person for friends and family when they need someone they can trust. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, and I’ve also helped foster sick or recovering pets, so I’m patient, gentle, and confident with special care routines. I truly love animals and will treat your fur baby like my own — whether that’s getting energy out on a walk, hanging out for cozy cuddle time, or making sure they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. One fun bonus: I love taking high-quality photos of pets! I’m always happy to take a few free photos of your furry friend during our visit so you can see what they’re up to and have some cute memories. 🐾💛 I can’t wait to meet your bestie! I’m a full-time student at Iowa and work part-time remotely, plus I nanny just a few hours each week. Because of that, my schedule is very flexible and I’m usually only away for short periods at a time. I’m also able to work from home, so I can easily spend plenty of time with your pet and keep them company throughout the day. Your pet will get lots of attention and won’t be left alone for long. My apartment is quiet, safe, and very pet-friendly. My room has plenty of space for crates, beds, toys, and play time. I’m careful about safety (always leashed walks, doors secured, routines followed) and I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved while they’re here.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for pets is second nature to me. From growing up with dogs, cats, and even small critters, to now professionally pet sitting, I bring a lifetime of love and experience to the animals I care for. I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your furry family members while you’re away, and I’m here to give them all the love and attention they deserve. Whether it’s regular walks, feeding, playtime, or cuddles, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. I’ve also got experience with senior pets, special diets, and administering some medications. I am currently a full time student with a part job for around 10 hours a week. I don’t work over the weekends which allows me to care for your pets. I also have most afternoons and a few nights free so I can check in on your pets while you’re away! I adhere to the pets needs when in their home and understand the importance of their territory. I am available for potty breaks whenever necessary and will take time to play with all pets.
“Jackie did an excellent job of watching my cat while I was out of town. She was very thorough and prompt, and sent lots of great pictures. I felt at ease knowing my pet was being well taken care of, and came home to a very relaxed and happy kitty!”

“Christian is an excellent sitter. He is responsive, dependable and very competent. I hope he never moves/leaves the area so that he can care for my cat as long as possible!”

About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years and currently have a lab back home. I’ve also done cat sitting and genuinely love being around animals. I understand how important routines, trust, and calm care are—whether it’s a playful pup or a quiet cat. I bring real experience, patience, and a steady presence to every pet I care for. I’m a full-time student, so my schedule stays busy, but I make space for pet care between classes and in the evenings. I’m intentional with my time and prioritize calm, consistent routines—whether it’s a midday walk, feeding, or just being present. I’ve had dogs for over 10 years and have done cat sitting too, so I understand how important it is to show up with patience and reliability, even on a full schedule. I care for pets with a focus on routine, comfort, and trust. In a client’s home, I follow their established rhythms—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and downtime—so their pet feels safe and settled. I’ve had dogs for over 10 years and have done cat sitting back home, so I understand how important it is to show up with consistency and care. I’m mindful of each pet’s personality and needs, whether it’s a high-energy pup or a quiet, independent cat. My goal is always to make them feel seen, secure, and at ease while you’re away.
About: Hi there! I’ve grown up around pets of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with multiple breeds and ages ranging from puppies to high needs, elderly pets. I absolutely love animals! Your pet will receive love and be spoiled as if they were my own (: I work full time during the week from 8-4, but will be available for work from home Monday’s and Tuesday’s. I can do evenings after 4 during the week and anytime weekends. Depending on your preference and pet needs, I am able to keep them company in your home or can bring them to mine. I do have a 3 year old mini Australian Sheppard so your pet would need to be friendly. I don’t have a fenced in yard, thus all outside time would be on leash. I’m happy to do a meet and greet prior to the first sit or walk so your pet feels happy and comfortable!
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my personalized approach to pet care and my commitment to building a genuine bond with each animal. I understand that every pet has unique needs, whether it’s providing structured training for puppies, giving extra patience and care to senior pets, or ensuring anxious animals feel calm and secure. I have experience with administering medications, managing special diets, and adapting to a wide range of temperaments. My attention to detail, reliable communication, and deep love for animals ensure that both pets and their owners feel supported and cared for during my time with them. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to spend with your pets! Between classes I have large breaks, evenings, and weekends open, so I can easily fit walks, drop-ins, or playtime into my routine. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I’d love to make your pet part of my day. When providing pet and house sitting services, I ensure both your pets and your home are cared for with the utmost attention and respect. For your pets, I maintain their daily routines, including feeding, exercise, and any special care they require, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved in your absence. I also take care of your home by keeping it clean and secure, watering plants, collecting mail, and addressing any household needs as instructed. I’m attentive to details, such as locking doors, and keeping the environment tidy. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pets while maintaining the safety and cleanliness of your home.
