Dog Sitting Anthem

“Allison is really friendly, patient and communicative. Follow the instructions on my care notes well. Always keep me updated about the situation at home and her interactions with my kitties. Will definitely book her again :)”

About: Dogs have always been family to me. About 15 years ago, I turned that love into a career, and for 10 years, I owned K9-Games, a dog training business specializing in in-home training and board-and-train programs. I’m a certified dog trainer and behavior specialist and a graduate of Starmark Academy for Professional Dog Trainers in Texas. Throughout my career, I’ve cared for and trained hundreds of dogs, from eight-week-old puppies to seniors. I’ve also shared my life with two German Shepherds and an English Mastiff, so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your dog. Puppies hold a special place in my heart! A happy puppy is one whose needs are met—and I’m here to help with potty breaks, playtime, learning, and plenty of love. I can help with housebreaking, basic obedience, leash manners, polite greetings, and socialization while reinforcing the routines and training you’re working on at home. I’m also comfortable supporting dogs who need a slower introduction and extra time to feel at ease. My experience goes beyond walks and training. Administering medications was part of my daily routine at K9-Games, and I have years of experience caring for dogs with medication needs and supporting dogs recovering from surgery. I’ll carefully follow your instructions and your veterinarian’s care plan, including prescribed medications, activity restrictions, and recovery routines. I offer walks and drop-in visits tailored to your dog’s needs, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and agreed-upon training reinforcement. From an energetic puppy to a senior who needs a gentler pace, I’ll take the time to understand what makes your dog comfortable and keep their care consistent with your routine. For repeat clients and dogs I care for regularly, I’m also open to discussing care while you’re out of town, depending on availability and your dog’s needs. Building a relationship over time means your dog will already know me, and I’ll know their personality, routines, and preferences. My goal is to provide consistent, loving care with someone both you and your dog trust. You’ll receive photo updates and a recap after every visit, including walks, meals, potty breaks, and anything noteworthy. I want you to feel connected and confident in your dog’s care, even when you can’t be there. After K9-Games closed, I moved into a different field. Recently losing my oldest dog reminded me that working with dogs is what truly brings me joy. Returning to dog care feels like coming back to something I’ve always loved. I’m knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely invested in the dogs I care for. My own dogs are my family, and I’ll care for yours with that same love, patience, and attention. The first part of my day is dedicated to my first love—dogs! I’m available during that time for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, medications, and puppy care, including potty breaks and training reinforcement. Later in the day, I volunteer at a jiu-jitsu school, supporting children and their families. Caring for others—whether they have two legs or four—is something that brings me joy. I schedule visits around those commitments so each dog receives the time and attention they deserve. For regular clients, I’m happy to discuss a consistent schedule that works for your dog’s routine. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my first priorities. Before care begins, I’ll take the time to learn about their routine, personality, medical needs, and any behavioral concerns or triggers. With 15 years of experience and a background as a certified dog trainer and behavior specialist, I understand the importance of building trust and allowing each dog to feel comfortable at their own pace. When caring for your dog in your home, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and training reinforcement. I have years of experience administering medications and caring for dogs recovering from surgery, and I’ll carefully follow your veterinarian’s instructions and any activity restrictions. I’m mindful of doors, gates, and potential hazards, and I’ll check that your dog’s collar or harness is secure before walks. I won’t allow off-leash activity in unsecured areas or introduce your dog to unfamiliar animals without discussing it with you first. Each visit will be tailored to your dog’s age, energy level, health, and comfort. You’ll receive photos and a recap after every visit, and I’ll promptly communicate any changes or concerns I notice. Before our first visit, I’ll also confirm your veterinarian’s information and an emergency contact so I’m prepared if an unexpected situation arises. I’ll respect your home, keep your keys and access information secure, and make sure your dog is settled and your home is locked according to your instructions before leaving. My goal is for you to feel confident that both your dog and your home are in caring, responsible hands.

About: I wasn’t allowed to have pets as a kid, so I frequently visited my friends’ houses and play with their animals. I love my kitties and will love on your cats & dogs as if they’re my own! My kitties have FIV so I’m used to cleaning their space and sneaking supplements into their food. I work full time in the afternoons, so mornings are best for me! The earlier the better. I have time to take care of my babies so I’d love to help take care of yours too. I’ll take the best care of your pet in your home! A clean space for a pet to live is so crucial to their health, and I’d love to help you with that.

About: I've grown up around and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. Started sitting for my family and friends of the family when I was about 11 and then neighbors started to have me sit and take care of their animals. I love animals and we usually become quick friends. I have an open and flexible schedule. I'm available weekdays, weekends and holidays. I can work with whatever schedule you and your pets needs are. The day to day is largely based on what your house and or pets needs are from giving medication at specific times to watering plants.

About: I have owned and loved dogs my entire life. As I grew older, my love for animals grew stronger. I have been pet sitting for about a year now, and absolutley love every moment of it. I am currently not working, so I have a lot of free time. However, I do have college classes on mondays and wednesdays at 11:15 and 2:30. I am not a discipline oriented care giver. I redirect them or send them outside, and reward the good behavior with treats. Animals are allowed to sleep with me in my bed, and are allowed on furniture.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for several years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m a responsible and attentive caregiver who understands that every pet has unique needs, routines, and energy levels. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feedings, or just extra cuddles, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available whenever you need me I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company.

About: Hi! My name is Teryn! I am an 18 year old who has been around the block when it comes to taking care of pets. I currently have 7 dogs of all sizes, I have two German Shepherds, two Australian Shepherds (mini & toy) and three Dachshunds (Weiner dogs). I have grown up surrounded by all types of dogs, young and old. My dogs currently are age ranged between 2 and 15. I can work with other animals too! I grew up with cats and have had pet fish and a pet Bearded Dragon. Plus Im a quick learner! I love all animals and am very reliable and trust worthy. I also used to volunteer weekly at a non-profit/non-kill animal shelter where I socialize the dogs and work with them. Along with my age, comes energy. I am a very energetic person who loves to exercise with my dogs. I personally take my own dogs on hikes, and walks often. So energetic dogs are my speed! But I can always go for a nice nap on the couch with a mellow dog/cat too. I put 120% into everything I do and I would love to put 120% into taking care of your pets! While I do have a very flexible part time job where I work up to 8 hours, I still find time to take care of my pets daily. From feeding them to bathing them bi-weekly. Even with a part time job I make sure I can give my pets the best care. Another thing I would like to mention is that I am more than able to work around my work schedule and take work off as they are so flexible. Even while working, I try exercising my dogs often (especially the big dogs) and I work on new tricks with them. Along with a part time job, I am currently enrolled in college, but I only have one in person class that is twice a week so I don’t let that get in my way of my pet care. In order to take care of my own pets, I make sure to feed them twice a day and let them out every 2-4 hours. I work with my dogs on new tricks and take them on hikes/walks with me. With my clients animals I would like to have a list of their daily needs to I can meet the owners standards for their pet(s). I always aspire to give both the pets and owners a great experience with my dog sitting skills.

I am available to pet sit and house sit as well as take the dogs for a walk if desired or needed! While keeping your home safe and as you left it, I can follow your pets routine and feeding/potty break schedule and any other needs they may have!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, from energetic pups to relaxed seniors. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining feeding and potty schedules, administering oral medications, and adapting to each dog’s unique routine. I understand that every dog has different needs, whether that’s a leisurely walk, playtime, extra patience with anxiety, or simply quiet companionship. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, and energy level so I can quickly communicate anything important to you. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first, and I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and care I’d want for my own pets. Hi! I’m a dependable, detail-oriented animal lover who understands that pets are family. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home the majority of the month and am home every Monday and Friday. On those days, my children are at school, so it’s just me, my two cats, and your pet at home. This gives your pet plenty of attention, companionship, and a calm environment throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so communication is a priority. You’ll receive regular updates with photos, videos, and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, medications, and favorite activities so they receive personalized care. Whether your pet loves walks and playtime or prefers a quiet day with lots of cuddles and relaxation, I’ll follow their routine and make sure they feel comfortable. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always come first. Your pet’s safety is my highest priority.

If caring for your pet in my home, I only accept calm, well-mannered dogs that are comfortable around cats, since I have two cats of my own. Dogs stay indoors in a clean, smoke-free home, receive potty breaks at least three times a day, fresh water at all times, and walks as needed. For visits in your home, I respect your space, carefully follow your instructions, and make sure your pet stays comfortable by maintaining their normal routine. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.

“Destiny took amazing care of our two pets while we were away and made the whole trip so much less stressful. She’s always reliable, thoughtful, and it was such a huge help that she also brought in our packages. We’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”
