Rupert

Des Moines, IA

  Breed: Bluetick Coonhound

  Weight: 60 lbs

  Age: 1 year old puppy

  Gender: Male

We’re a fun couple with a love for dogs! Rupert gets to take long walks every day, and heads to the dog park often too! He’s got quite a bit of energy from 12-6, but is super sleepy the rest of the time. We both work from home, so would be around most days for any of your dogs needs.

How many sitters provide puppy boarding in Des Moines?
There are 1 sitters in Des Moines.
How long will it take for me to find a puppy boarding sitter in Des Moines?
It depends on your needs and the sitter's availability. We've seen people confirm their plans in as short as a few hours but typically it takes a week. It takes a few days to hear back from the community and then a few more days to meet up for a playdate to make sure the puppies are compatible and everyone is comfortable with the necessary care. If you're gone for longer trips (anything longer than an extended weekend), we also encourage a trial night to be absolutely sure.
How experienced are sitters providing puppy boarding in Des Moines?
All sitters on WoofyClub are current dog or puppy parents. For older members, they might have reviews as well on their profile. Do not hesitate to ask them more!
My dog has special needs. Can I find dog boarding on WoofyClub that can accommodate my dog’s needs?
Yes absolutely. We've matched up families with service dogs, diabetic dogs, senior dogs, puppies, etc. Make sure to discuss it with the host family and also to include it in your profile. Everyone's very accommodating but it's better not to provide any surprises :)
What if my dog is not yet spayed or neutered?
That's totally ok. When creating your profile, you'll be asked if your dog has been spayed or neutered. While there are fewer families willing to take in a dog that hasn't been spayed or neutered, many families are open to it still.
What if my dog hasn't been fully vaccinated?
In general, your dogs need to be fully vaccinated. However, that might not be possible for puppies. If your puppy is too young to get vaccinated and you have it scheduled for them, please let the host know about it. We also ask about your dog's vaccination status when creating your profile. Often times, we find puppy owners swapping with each other as they're both going through the same journey.
