Dog Boarding in Des Moines

“Our dog bonded so well with Linda!! She became siblings with Dino too! The daily updates eased our mind while we traveled and we could see that Hazel was well-taken care of and relaxed. She had lots of fun throughout the day with Dino and they settled well together too! I loved that Linda was home for our anxious dog. Linda did an amazing job with our dog!!”

“Max had a great time with Kathy, as he always does! She takes such great care of him and he looooves her so much! It is so wonderful to have him have a spa trip when we are out of town. Kathy cares for him as if he was her own pup. Thank you so much!”

“Brandon went above and beyond as a sitter for my pup. He was extremely communicative about how my pup was doing during his stay. Bz (my pup) made fast friends with Loona and got along great with the other pups in a house as well. Bz got his nails rounded, only after checking in with me, he even got a bath with the other pup. I will definitely be returning to Brandon when I am looking for a sitter to watch Bz. If you are looking for someone to truly care and love you dog while you are away I cannot recommend Brandon enough.”

“Naomi took our puppy Shadow in when he was really struggling with separation anxiety. She adjusted to his needs and made him comfortable on an emergency basis. She took great of of our little pup and provided regular picture updates. She was prompt in providing pick up on short notice. 100% would recommend!”

“Alex and Amanda did a great job watching our dog! They know dogs really well, and our lab seemed to have a great time during his stay. They are always quick to respond to messages, which was comforting for us. They have a great yard that allows the dogs to burn off energy while safely secured within their fence.”

“Stephanie and her partner Kellan were the best pet-sitters we could hope for! Stephanie always responded very quickly to Rover messages. I realized that I had messed up our dates and asked if I could modify the booking to drop her off a day early and they were completely fine with that. When we arrived, they had a dog bed, dishes and toys ready for Chesapeake to help her settle in right away. They took her for lots of walks. They showered her with love and treated her like she was their own dog. They sent photos and videos of our happy dog throughout her stay. And when we got home after picking her up, we found that they had given her a toy, a stuffed hedge hog that she had enjoyed playing with. I will definitely be checking to see if they are available next time we need sitters. They are the absolute best!”

“Jodi is an exceptional communicator, sending updates and pictures of my car regularly and responding to my questions promptly. The area where she keeps the pets is well maintained and it's obvious that she has a love for pets. My cat comes back to me happy and healthy every time, and I can't wait to continue to use Jodi as a repeat customer.”

“Sourabh and his dog and human family was the best! When we met them during the meet up, I immediately felt like we were in good hands - and we were! Sourabh and his partner were super friendly, caring and attentive. They asked a lot of questions during the meet up and during Cooper’s stay at their house which was awesome. They also shared of lots pictures throughout the stay and made us feel lucky that we got such awesome Rover sitter. They even baked dog treats for the dogs. Highly recommend Sourabh. Thank you so much for watching our baby!”

“Kody had a wonderful stay with Christina this past weekend! He had so much fun playing with the dogs and I was provided plenty of updates throughout. I highly recommend boarding your dog with her. Thank you Christina, Kody can’t wait to stay with you again!”

“Gino provided excellent care to our Golden Retriever. Our dog received wonderful walks, and enjoyed going out in Gino's back yard. Gino is very conscientious and was aware of our dog's need for exercise. I give Gino my highest recommendation.”

“Tyler and Alexis Rule! They were both warm, welcoming, asked all the right questions during our meet and great, and are clearly dedicated to making their space inviting for dogs and people alike. Our big boy Ted had a great week at their place with sweet pups Roo and Darwin and got all the affection and play time he could ever want! Really lovely to have folks close to our home (and the airport) who are available all day every day for your pooch. Looking forward to next time!”

“Arnie always loves his stay with Rikke and Luna. My favorite part is getting lots of pictures, a daily update and seeing all the lovely walks he’s being taken on.”

“Maria was a fantastic sitter for our highly anxious pup while we were away on vacation. She sent videos and photos everyday and was very responsive. Would recommend her!”

“Rosa really helps me who is a first time Rover user. She explains everything to me very carefully during our meet&greet. I got daily photos from her during my dog's stay. And my dog is very happy and playful when I am back, I believe she had a good time with Rosa.”

“Great sitter! Took our pup in super last minute and was able to accommodate us. Definitely recommend and will be using next time we need a sitter”

“Benji loved his stay with Katherine and Brian. He played lots of fetch, watched movies, and got lots of love. Thank you for taking care of Benji and I’m sure he’s looking forward to next time!”

“Myrna is an exceptional caregiver whom I wholeheartedly trust to provide safe, loving care and outstanding pet service. Having witnessed her devoted attention to her own dogs, I can attest to her responsible and intelligent nature. Additionally, as a seasoned school teacher, Myrna brings patience, compassion, and a keen sense of responsibility to her interactions. Her kind and accepting demeanor makes her not only a reliable pet sitter but also an exceptional human being. I highly recommend Myrna for anyone seeking top-notch care for their furry companion :)”

“My anxious pup Ginger had the best time with Marisol and Twinkie. I was so happy to see how much Ginger enjoyed herself. Marisol is a wonderful person who goes above and beyond to ensure your dog gets all they need while you are away. I am so grateful for her loving kindness and I will book again for sure.”

“Sara was amazing! It was our first time leaving Caramelo for an extended period of time. Sara gave us comfort that Caramelo was cozy and doing well. Sara was very responsive and communicative. Caramelo loved his time with her and will be visiting her again!”

“We've got a quirky girl that doesn't naturally warm up to everyone, so we weren't sure how it was going to go, but she LOVED Erika and her time staying at her place. Erika sent us lots of daily updates and let us know how our girl was doing. I am so happy we found Erika and have a great option for fun homestay vacation for our dog.”
