Dog Sitters in Chautauqua, IA

Jackie was incredible and we are so grateful we found her! From the start, she was communicative and clear in understanding our needs and expectations. In her meet and greet and onboarding she was thorough and knowledgeable. She watched our dog, and we knew he was in great hands. She made him comfortable and ensured his needs were met while we were out of town. Better yet, he received many snuggles, play sessions, and lots of attention. We will only be calling Jackie from now on!! Would recommend her for all your pet sitting needs.

Jackie is amazing! Like most, our dog is our baby and she treating him with the same loving care that we do when we are home. We would highly recommend Jackie and Positively Amore!

They are awesome! She does drop ins at your house and Boarding. we went on vacation, and she did 2 meet and greets. She sent me pictures, and updates throughout the week. She helped so much even watching over my house. She made my vaca even better knowing my pups were taken care of and being spoiled while I was away.

We are so fortunate to have found Jackie! She has pet/house sit for us multiple times for long weekends. Our fur babies are very particular and opinionated and she has earned their affection and trust. Jackie is very quick to reply to messages and questions during her stay. She has very good memories of each of the fur babies likes, dislikes, anxieties, comforts.

Jackie and Pat have watched our saint benard for almost a year now everytime we leave town. Started her as a puppy there and they have loved her as their own each and everytime she spends time with them. Sometimes we stop by just to say hi even! You can see the excitment in my pup as we approach their home and hears them call her name. She absolutely adores them and we will forever recommend Jackies services!

A place where you can trust that your beloved four-legged family member is well taken care of and loved. Safe clean healthy environment!

We absolutely love this place. They are amazing. Great communication. They send pictures and videos to let you know how things are going. The house is clean and safe. They do a wonderful job of ensuring the dogs are carefully watched and get plenty of opportunity to run and play together. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs in their care. So glad we found them. :-)

This family is the best to watch my dog. I do their in home boarding with 1 on 1 stay. My dog has separation anxiety and isn’t the best around other dogs all the time. They go over and beyond to send me pictures and videos, he has an absolute blast with them. He gets all the snuggles, walks, car rides, play time. I couldn’t be more comfortable with dropping my dog off with someone while I’m on vacation. Highly recommend them to anyone!

Let me tell you why Heather is amazing. Firstly, she was able to fit us into her schedule over the holiday weekend. Secondly, she was SO responsive to questions and worked well within any weird scheduling/oddball requests. She sent daily updates of how my cat was doing, including photos and videos. You can tell she genuinely cares for her clientele, and has a love for the animals in her care. I WILL be keeping her on speed dial any time I need someone to come check on my fur child. Highly highly highly recommend.

Would definitely recommend this service if your dogs prefer the comfort of their own home! Heather is very responsive via text and it was easy to schedule our first meet and greet. My dogs took to her quickly (even the one that doesn't like anyone!). I was away for 5 days and she sent me several texts / pictures / videos. I felt very comfortable giving her access to my home and she took great care of my dogs. Already have our second visit scheduled!

Heather is seriously the BEST!!! I cannot say enough positive, amazing things about her! My 2 dogs (Wiglet & Harriet) love her and are very happily worn out after staying with her, or after they’ve been walked—which is always a great sign! She is always flexible with me and goes SO far above and beyond when taking care of my fur kids 💗. I was so incredibly lucky to find her (& her husband Ron). When my dogs are with them, I know that they are happy & well-loved, which says a lot! I HIGHLY recommend Heather (Old Market Bark-It)—she is truly awesome! Thank you so much, Heather for all of the love that you give to my pooches! Love & woof 🐾♥️👏 p.s. And, their dog Baxter is sweet, wonderful & adorable. My dogs love Baxter❣️

Heather is great and the only sitter I use for my kitty! She shows up at the agreed time and sends cute picture updates. I was nervous using a sitter for the first time but Heather is a professional and I can be assured my fur baby is taken care of when I’m out of town.

Since January ‘19, Heather has been walking my pups 5 days a week while I’m at work. She is amazing, my pups both love her, and she’s super reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

My pup and I love Heather. She’s an excellent dog walker and is very trustworthy. She also sends daily updates that make me so happy. I can’t recommend Old Market Bark It enough!

Heather is very flexible, reliable, and she always sends me updates with pics/videos 🐶❤️ The price is much cheaper than comparable companies, I’d recommend! …

Great job for us staying with our Goldendoodle. Would recommend and use again.

Very helpful over the phone!

Ken always takes good care of our dogs when we drop them off. I know they will be safe in his care. He is very flexible with schedules and boards at a good price. I would recommend him, we always drive from out of town when we need a place for our dogs to stay.

I have known and worked with Ken for over 25 years and my parents have boarded dogs with him many times over the years. His kennels are clean, quiet, safe, temperature controlled with food, water, and exercise twice each day. We very much appreciate it and do not hesitate to call him when we need boarding services for our dogs. Thank you Ken!

Please don't leave your dog here. This is dog hell. The kennel is a concrete bunker with small cells...maybe 2 feet by 4 feet. There is only a concrete floor and a water bowl -- which I wonder how often was filled as our dog was very thirsty when we got her back. The place reeks of urine and the echos of the dogs barking inside hurt my ears. There is no outside access and I don't think Ken lets the dogs out very often. There is certainly no play time. And when we picked up our dog, she cowered in fear around Ken and peed all the way out the door -- like how she does when she is very nervous or being yelled at. Ken didn't even clean up the mess before hopping in his car and leaving before us. Also, our dog smelled bad, as if she'd been lying on urine-soaked concrete for 2 days. Ken did have a good choice of foods and administered the daily medicine our dog needed. He, however, did not seem very charismatic toward our dog and seemed somewhat annoyed that we had interrupted his pool party to drop her off. We will never be going back. Please spend a little more money and leave your dog somewhere she will be cared for.

Cheap place to kennel your pup. Your dog will have space to move around, and Ken has a variety of food to feed your dog. Ken has been working with dogs for years - 5/5

They were very easy to work with, especially with a crazy family schedule. We will definitely use them again. Kennels were clean and spacious. Dog was fed, watered, and exercised. Thanks.

Ken is always very accomodating for our large slightly rowdy German shepherd and ease of drop.off and pick up, and the proximity to us is C.B..make this our go to kennel for boarding for the past 5 years.

Let my chihuahua out into the woods for 4 days in the middle of November. Looks like a tiny dog jail. No place for good boys.

Owner is very understanding with our dog’s temperament and is great to work with.

Great service, great flexibility!

Linette takes such great care of our cats whenever we go out of town. It's because she genuinely loves cats, it's not just a transaction to her. She's also willing to do stuff like bringing in the mail. We were lucky we found her.

Linny's services are amazing! I got updates twice a day on how my pets were doing, along with great pictures. She followed all of my routes for my elderly cat and gave extra love to my needy cat. Highly recommended from this crazy cat lady.

Linny’s pet service has helped me many times in last minute visits to care for my 2 dogs. I appreciate her being there for me when I needed it. Highly recommended

Linny is the absolute best! Our pup loves her, and she takes such good care of our dog. Linny responds quickly to our communication and is flexible to our schedule. She is consistently on-time and reliable. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take good care of their furry family members!

Always so attentive with my 2 fur babies. I have no worries when out of town knowing Linny will be the one feeding, letting them out, playing with them, and tucking them in at night.

Linny has been our go-to dog walker and pet sitter since the day we brought our sweet puppy home. She is amazing with our dog but also extremely friendly, trustworthy & reliable. We are lucky to have found her!

Linny is awesome! She is a very caring, professional pet sitter who makes the care & safety of your fur babies her top priority. We never worry about leaving our pets in Linny's care -- she leaves a daily log detailing how long she was with your pets & any other activities/services she performed while on her visit. She will even text you daily updates with pictures! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Linny to anyone looking for in-home pet sitting. She loves her job & it shows!

Linny is fabulous. She truly loves my girls and I wouldn't trust their care to anyone else! She is very special!

We were so worried about leaving our Corgi with a stranger as he is NOT a fan of anyone he hasn't interacted with 20+ times. He barks and runs from strangers and has basically always had one parent with him as he is a pandemic pup. We had multiple failed attempts at finding a dog walker in the area, ranging from general flakiness to outright fraud. We found Linny via Google on super late notice. She was very quick to respond and set up a meet and greet. She really impressed me during the meet and greet, completely took charge of the situation. Worked her way up to a good comfort level with Dave. She is obviously very experienced and was so gentle and knowledgeable throughout the whole process. She sent me updates and photos of her walks. We are so happy to have found her and will definitely be repeat customers. If you want your animals taken care of, she is the person to hire!!

Lynette watched my pug and took her for walks when I was her neighbor. She is the most loving and caring person when it comes to animals! I highly recommend her services! You and your pets will be very happy!
