Courtney was great! My dog has separation anxiety & is usually freaking out when I get home after being gone all day. But this time, she was calm and happy. She clearly loved Courtney!

Taylor was such an amazing sitter! She gave me detailed updates every time she checked in on the pups. Will definitely hire her again if she is available :)

Keera was great with Archer and went at his pace! I got a ton of updates and Keera was super responsive and gave great updates! Keera was flexible when I was coming home sooner than expected.

Sheana came through when I was in a pinch. I needed someone to let the dogs out because I was stuck in traffic in the mountains. She responded last minute and had excellent communication. She’s the best!

It was our first time leaving Skittles with a sitter, and Daniel did a great job of assuaging our fears! He was super communicative and made sure we knew that Skittles was in good hands. Highly recommend!

boarding

Kelli was awesome boarding my two dogs. Not only did she give daily updates with videos and pictures she also worked with them on introducing them to her cat and getting used to her big dogs. Can't recommend enough!

Raccoon River Park

Raccoon River Park

Raccoon River Park isn't just a local favorite in West Des Moines -- visitors pawsitively love this place too! This large green area is located in the heart of town, offering multiple fields for sports and outdoor activities. Nestled by the Raccoon River, the park has access to the water and features numerous lakes, a swimming beach, and everything you may need for a good fishing trip! Raccoon River Dog Park is a wonderful extension to the main park where your buddy is welcome to run off-leash, enjoying all 12 acres of freedom. The dog park is split into two sections for the comfort of small and large pups and requires a permit to visit.

Lake Anita State Park

Lake Anita State Park

Anita is a small city in Cass County, Iowa, located northwest of Creston and west of Des Moines. The city is located near a huge recreation facility centered on the lake and a great retreat for tired travelers! Lake Anita State Park is a modern campground with nature trails centered on a 171-acre lake. This is the best spot for fishing in the area! Your pooch is welcome to join you as you hike and try to catch the biggest fish in the lake; however, Fido should stay on-leash at all times and behave himself. Bring your own drinking water and some toys for your boisterous buddy.

Bloomfield/Allen

Bloomfield/Allen

One of the biggest eastern neighborhoods in Des Moines, Bloomfield/Allen occupies a significant part of northeastern corner of the city, and includes several recreational areas, a lake, and quiet residential quarters. You will not be able to miss Ewing Park, an expansive green park with multiple sports fields. Ewing Dog Park is set just across the street! This beautiful fenced facility is the pawfect place to bring Fido for a decent off-leash run near the water and let him stretch his legs after a long ride! The place is usually not crowded, but there are enough visitors to play with. Bring your own drinking water, as none is available here.

South Windsor Heights

South Windsor Heights

The southern part of Windsor Heights is located near the busy I-235, which makes commuting and travelling a breeze. If you're driving along the interstate with Fido and need to make a pit stop, Colby Park is a great place to do it. This public park features Clive Greenbelt Trail, an 8-mile hike stretching from Clive to Windsor Heights. This pet-friendly path is paved and runs through the suburbs, making the scenery stand out! But if you want to let your buddy roam off-leash, Windsor Heights Dog Park, right across from Colby Park, is a cool spot to hang out with local mutts and burn some energy. The dog park is fenced and is free to use.

New Visions

New Visions

New Visions is one of the central neighborhoods in Des Moines, located north of downtown. Centered on DMACC Urban Campus, the borough features several public parks, shopping areas, and dining facilities, but no outdoor services. You will find Riverwalk Dog Park on the western bank of the Des Moines River, conveniently set between Illinois Street and West River Drive. This is a decent, free, and pet-friendly location with off-leash policies and plenty of room to let your buddy run and romp. This fenced park has some grass, agility equipment, and plenty of friendly locals, especially in the evening. The only downside is that the park lacks shade and water.
