Expert Pet Care

Hello! We are Auntie Abby’s Professional Pet Sitting Service.

Our passion is serving the pets of the Great Des Moines Area with a variety of services in your pet’s favorite place, their home! Whether you need someone to let your pet out during the day while you’re at work or to take care of their needs while you are on vacation, you can trust Auntie Abby’s to give them the love and care they deserve.

We believe that pets are more relaxed and enjoy a higher quality of life when they are in their own environment. This is why we focus on providing one on one, in-home care services for your pet.

While you are away, we will care for your pets as though they are our own. We are a fully licensed company and bonded pet sitting service and we strive to give you the peace-of-mind that your pet is being cared for in the best way possible through our client app, Time to Pet, which allows you to see when we arrive, GPS tracking and your pet’s walking route, and share photos and reports of how your pet’s visit went.

Our Services

Daily Visits or Dog Walking

A professional pet sitter will tend to the individual needs of your pets. This service can include a feeding and freshening of water, administration of medications, cleaning of litter boxes or cages, indoor or outdoor playtime or a dog walk in your neighborhood. Offered in 30, 45 and 60 min increments.

Overnight Pet & House Sitting

Do you travel for business often or need someone to care for your pet while you’re on vacation and prefer not to board them? Have one of our sitters spend the night to give your pets extra time and snuggles and your home the added security of a live-in caregiver. We also offer add-on household care services to keep your home running while you’re away. This service books out quickly, so be sure to inquire sooner rather than later!

Pet Nannying

Do you need someone to care for your pet that can’t be left alone while you’ll be away for a short period of time to go to an appointment or run an errand? Pet nannying is the right service for you!

House Sitting (No Pets)

Taking your pets with you but still need someone to watch your house while you are away? We offer periodical stops to collect your mail, tend to your trash, water your plants, and can even stay overnight to ensure your home is safe and secure.

Vacation Home Visits

Heading out of town or just have a busy day ahead? Our Vacation Home Service provides up to four daily visits while you are away. This service includes all of the complimentary pet and house sitting amenities without the overnight stay and you can customize the number of visits per day as well as the length. Mix and match visit lengths to keep your pet on their regular feeding, exercise, and potty break schedule.

“So impressed with Auntie Abby’s service! We were out of town & our old dachshund needed some in home visits. Our girl warmed up to both Abby and Erin right away. We loved the photos and reports with each visit. I would hands down recommend Auntie Abby’s.”
