Dog Boarding in Des Moines

Gino has a lot of experience caring for dogs and it shows. My elderly dog requires extra maintenance and he took very good care of her. He sent us pictures and updates multiple times every day. If Gino is available, book him! Your dog will be in great hands.

The best! We have never left our dog with any besides a family member previously. After moving, this was no longer an option, we needed to find other options. We were incredibly nervous but Sam put all our anxieties to rest. Our dog a has a few quirks and special needs, Sam was an absolute gem in accommodating his needs. Our dog got lots of snuggles and we got lots of updates. Sam is knowledgeable, kind, and attentive with Raulo. In fact, he didn’t want to come home and rather stay with his new besties! We have already rebooked for a future trip.

As a repeat client, we left our dog with Daniel and Joelle’s family for a one week holiday stay, and once again they were amazing. Daniel and Joelle’s family is such a loving, sweet family. We are so thankful they shared all that love with our furbaby, Dooboo! As soon as we arrived, our dog was pulling with excitement all the way to their door. He just could not wait to see them again. We received plenty of updates every day, and it was so clear from every photo and message that he was happy and loved. In the past, when we boarded him somewhere else for a week, he would start to seem a bit sad toward the end of the stay. But with Daniel and Joelle’s family, he was joyful the entire time. My husband and I even joked on the way to pick him up, “What if he does not want to come home and wants to stay with them forever? 😂” Honestly, I think he may have accepted them as his second family. Thank you so much for giving our dog such amazing care while we were traveling to visit family. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such wonderful hands.

We used Kathy's service to take care of Milo while we were in Europe for 2 weeks. We are so glad we picked Kathy to take care of Milo. She did an amazing job, we were constantly received updates/pictures on how he was doing. We recommend anyone looking for dog sitter to use Kathy.

Alex did a great job with my elderly dog while I was away for several days. He was also willing to accommodate an extended boarding due to a flight cancellation which gave me one less thing to worry about while I was away. He was very responsive to texts and kept me informed about my dog’s experience. Would definitely recommend!

Kathy was fantastic, she was very responsive, provided excellent updates, had a great environment for dogs and took excellent care of my pup!

Shannon was the best! Professional, conscientious, and knowledgable are just Agee terms I would use to describe Shannon. We felt very comfortable letting Shannon into our home and caring for our pup Murphy. I plan on calling on Shannon again and again. Jay W.

Cyndi is awesome and always takes great care of our Sadie. Our pup hates fireworks and Cyndi did a great job making sure she was comfortable.

Alki had a fantastic time with Maria and her doggy pack! I was nervous to leave him for 10 days while I vacationed out of country but I came back to a very happy, well fed and well exercised boy. I received daily photos and videos that showed me he was in a great hands and in a beautiful part of West Seattle, living his best life with his new doggy friends and Maria. It was a wonderful vacay for both of us!

Taylor was absolutely angel, I was so thankful to find that she was able to take care of my baby due to another sitter canceling same day. Taylor took great care of my doggy and sent me updates everyday! Thank you so so much Taylor!!

Kersea responded quickly and showed attention to care details on the front end, which made everything go smoothly. She kept us up to date throughout the stay as well!

We had a lovely experience with Lindsey and her family. We could not have asked for a better caregiver for our Vega while we were on vacation and I look forward to working with Lindsey in the future. It really made our vacation that much more enjoyable, knowing that our fur baby was being loved and cared for. Thank you again for everything!

We had a great first experience here. Our dog is more comfortable with fewer dogs and is more of a people person. Excellent communication, lots of photos and videos, and they even treated our dog to a birthday treat on her birthday after checking that we were okay with that. Our dog came home very happy!

Dave & Betty are the absolute best. They took such great care of our little Pomeranian. They kept up all his routines including his mental exercise activities and medications. They sent us numerous updates per day and were super responsive which was great for this nervous mama. He had bitten our previous housesitter but Dave & Betty were confident they could handle him and manage his triggers. We came back to a calm and happy fur kid and no one was bitten. We would highly recommend Dave & Betty. We hope that Kirby is able to stay with them again.

Mylyn took such great care of my dog Ginger. She was very responsive and so flexible in extending Ginger’s stay when I had a family emergency come up. She gave ginger a bath, took her for some fun at the dog park, and gave her lots of love. I’m so grateful to have booked Mylyn while I was out of town and would definitely book with her again.

Rikke and her family are the best! Our dog Cooper loves going there and it always gives me peace of mind knowing he is in good hands. They always give him lots of exercise and time outside which he loves. We are so thankful for Rikke that she loves our dog like we do!

Erika is the best dogsitter ever! She takes the best care of Sallie. Sallie always comes home exhausted and happy. Erika is super trustworthy, handles Sallie’s quirks with ease, and sends lots of updates. We’re so lucky to have found her as a dogsitter and highly recommend to everyone!!

Sourabh and his wife have been the best Rover sitters we have had yet! They took such incredible care of our Sadie and she came home tired and happy. They sent photos and videos regularly and were very responsive and prompt with all their interactions. I will definitely be booking with them again!

He's very punctual, responsive in communication, and easy to work with. Mya seemed to have a great time with his family. I have any issue with him except (basically an FYI) that Mya smelled smoky when I picked her up. After a bath, same fluffy Mya.

Extremely accommodating and very warm and welcoming for my husky. You can tell he has a lot of experience and loves dogs. Hope to rebook in the future!
