“Emily was SO easy! I had to ask her last minute for one morning because my friends couldn’t that specific time & she made things a breeze! I got pictures of my fur baby & now will definitely be using her again 😍”

“Dalya is awesome!! Walked and hung out with our puppy, and sent plenty of photos/videos. She sent timely messages during her scheduled visit and was so quick to respond. Will be keeping her in mind for the future!”

“Lisa was fantastic with my three dogs. She did twice a day walk for Pitbull while we were on a 5 day vacation. Having a Pitbull will turn some walkers/sitters away and Lisa being experienced with this bred and being a vet tech was a blessing. We will booking her for a future trip and additional walks. She was the BEST!”

“Suzanne was so helpful with my dog Meech while I was recovering from an injury and unable to walk him. She was quick and professional and had no issues handling some of his reactivity on the leash. Would definitely book again and recommend to others!”

“Elizabeth is fantastic with my dog! She makes sure he gets the time outside that he loves and also pays attention to his energy level as a senior dog and spends time with him as per his needs and preferences. Walking, sitting outside on the patio, and giving him all the snuggles. I feel confident my dog, Petie is getting all the TLC he deserves when Elizabeth is caring for him. Thank you, Elizabeth for giving me this peace of mind! Highly recommend!”


About: I have helped my family take care of animals since I was twelve years old. We foster animals through the Humane Society of North Texas and have helped numerous animals recover, grow, and get adopted. I have fostered with my family for close to nine years now, which includes experience with bottle babies (kittens and puppies), full grown dogs and cats, and even a pregnant guinea pig. I have taken care of neighbor's pets before and my family's dogs as well. I am a college student off for summer break and have plenty of extra time to look after precious animals! I will be available to provide care for any pet(s). I will stick to whatever routine you have set for your animal(s). Whether they are indoor/outdoor or need to be crated and let out occasionally, I am flexible. I am also comfortable with animals of any size, and I have dealt with a lot of dogs with varying temperaments.

“Hana helped out at short notice and it was very easy to arrange Baloo’s walking schedule. Communication was good and we will definitely use again. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and spend some of my free time volunteering with dogs in my community. I have about a year of dog-sitting experience and am also a dog owner myself—I have a husky, so I’m very familiar with active dogs and enjoy taking them on long walks and keeping them engaged. I especially enjoy caring for senior dogs and understand that they often need extra patience, attention, and a consistent routine. Whether your dog loves adventure or prefers a slower pace, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday, but I’m available for afternoon and evening visits and am happy to work with your schedule when possible. I’m also very flexible on weekends and can often help with last-minute bookings. I prefer caring for dogs in my client’s home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I make sure each dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of affection. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks and spending quality time playing with them based on their energy level and needs. I understand that every dog is different, so I follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, or special care. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away, while also giving you peace of mind.

About: I grew up with animals (chickens, horses, goats, dogs) in a small town. I don’t have professional animal training, but I have plenty of energy! Hi! My name is Julie Mae. I am currently studying and my schedule is flexible. My calendar is also updated, but feel free to reach out! I have a two year old Yorkie! She’s my baby!!

About: I have had cats as pets my whole life and dogs as an adult. I have been pet sitting for about 6 years to dogs from puppies to seniors. Times have ranged from weekends to a month. I started fostering kittens when covid hit. I have found joy in caring for animals with all their different personalities. I have become experienced in all things kittens : bottle feeding , tube feeding administering medicine (my neighbor will even call me to give her pets pills) flea baths ringworm baths, brushing teeth you name it . I have even had to help kittens cross the rainbow bridge. It has been bitter sweet , but the love they give is more then enough. All animals deserve the best treatment and love we can give them I have been in education for 20 years teaching art and currently an administrator for the districts Fine Arts Department. My schedule is flexible enough to be able to check on animals during the day so they are taken care of. I have found pet sitting and fostering to be very rewarding and someday would like to start my own fostering service . Foster group Tall Tail Rescue . My job is flexible enough that i can leave for lunch and take care of your pets in the middle of the day as well. I have three cats that have been around lots of dog and cat “visitors” . Fostering cats has helped, … oh here comes another friend
“Jill is amazing. Pepper my puppy took to her immediately. Not only has Jill taken Pepper for a walk but with Jill's doggy background she also trained her in going down stairs and improving he behavior. I cant recommend Jill highly enough.”

About: As far as I can remember, I have always had pets. Dogs, cats, parakeets, hamsters, squirrels and the list goes on. I enjoy being with animals, they give me a sense of peace and well-being that I cannot find anywhere else. They ARE the best stress releaser. I have raised 2 litters of puppies and taken care of a few older furr babies. (They take a little more patience because they cannot get around like they used to) I do have a full-time job, but I can set my hours as needed. I am able to come home throughout the day and am home evenings and weekends. I have walking trails and a couple of parks that we can spend time together enjoying the outdoors. I have a fenced back yard. I do have two cats, but they mind their own business. (Hiding until they know if they are going to be eaten or not.) I do have a crate, if that is what you do when you are gone. I have a den that has a door to separate it from the rest of the house if your fur baby prefers to have their own space. I also am fine with them sleeping with me or near me if that is what you prefer.

Had a really good experience with this pet walker! Super reliable and easy to communicate with. You can tell they actually care about the pets, which made me feel way more comfortable. I loved getting little updates and pics after the walks too. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking for someone you can trust with your pet!

Suzanne came through tonight and walked my dog when I was called away for an emergency! I appreciate their communication and response time with a request that only left a couple hours until booked appt time. Bonus points that he’s been helped by them before so I didn’t have to contact a complete stranger. Thank you!
Tess was outstanding, very smart, good energy and gets dogs! She shows up on time, made a joyful day and evening for our 7 year old terrier. They bonded well. She was a great communicator, sent many pictures, and overall amazing. I will definitely use Tess again and highly recommend her.
