Pet Sitting Briaroaks

About: I have experience caring for dogs through friends, family, and personal experience. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic care, and giving plenty of love and attention. I’m always eager to learn your dog’s unique needs and preferences. I work from home on Thursdays and Fridays and have most weekends free, allowing me to provide attentive, loving care and plenty of quality time for your fur babies When babysitting pets in my home, I have a fully fenced backyard where they can safely go outside when needed, and I live in a great neighborhood for walks. I always follow the pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care.

About: I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician with 30 years experience caring for dogs, cats, pet birds, chickens, small mammals, reptiles, and other "non-traditional" pets. In addition to dogs and cats, my own pets have included rabbits, ferrets, box turtles, parrots, finches, and even a Texas spiny lizard! Do you have a senior dog or cat that needs some extra care and attention during the day? Or a special needs pet that has unique medical needs the average person may not be prepared to handle? Or how about a new puppy that needs mid-day potty breaks while you are at work, and could also use a few extra minutes of training to learn good habits? As a Fear Free Certified Professional, I only use reward-based training methods so your pet will look forward to my visits! I currently work full-time from home. My work schedule is unique which gives me the opportunity to provide mid-day walks and drop-in visits, as well as evening check-ins. I value the trust you place in someone to care for your furry, feathered, or scaled family member in the same manner that you would. I have dedicated my life to caring for and providing medical care for other people's pets, and will look after your pets as if they were my own!

“Min Q. went above and beyond taking care of my Beaux. She was very nice and kept me up to date with updates daily. i would highly recommend her services,”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for a house full of pets—including a cat, parakeets, fish, and even a couple of snapping turtles—and have loved both cats and dogs throughout my life. As an adult, I was lucky enough to spend 11 years with our beloved German Shepherd mix, Evie. We completed obedience training together, and I have plenty of hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, routines, training reinforcement, playtime, and all the everyday care that comes with sharing your life with a dog. As Evie got older, I also gained experience caring for a senior dog through arthritis and, eventually, a period of significant illness. Her needs changed considerably during her final months, so I’m comfortable administering oral medications, keeping an eye on changes in appetite or behavior, adapting routines for an older or less-active dog, and understanding when something just doesn’t seem quite right. I’ve also cared for pets for neighbors and understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet while you’re away. Since losing Evie in 2022, we haven’t been ready to bring another pet into our family, so I’d genuinely love the opportunity to spend some time caring for yours. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and—most importantly—I truly enjoy being around animals. I’m self-employed and set my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to work pet care into my day. I’m generally available for morning visits beginning around 8:30 AM, as well as midday and afternoon care. I can build walks, potty breaks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention into each pet’s normal routine, and I’m happy to follow the schedule they’re accustomed to at home. I know consistency matters, especially when pets are away from their people, so I’m happy to follow the schedule they’re accustomed to at home. We are a family of four with two children, ages 10 and 7, and our home has a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. We don’t currently have any pets of our own, so visiting dogs won’t need to adjust to other resident animals. I know every pet has different routines, boundaries, and comfort levels, and I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding and walks to medications, crate routines, sleeping arrangements, and house rules. I’m also happy to learn about your pet’s personality, triggers, quirks, and favorite things before their stay so we can make our home feel as comfortable and familiar as possible.

“I was away for 8 days and Jill came over twice a day during that time to take care of my dog and cat (feed, water, potty, cuddle). She brought in my mail, added water to my pool, and sent me photos and documentation on each visit. She is so reliable, I didn’t have to worry at all. And best of all the animals look forward to her visits. So glad I found Jill!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I understand that each pet has its own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to following each owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping a pet company, I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I start classes at UTD on August 24, but I’ll still have time to provide dependable care before and after classes, as well as on many weekends. I also attend church on Thursdays and Sundays, so I plan my schedule around those commitments. I keep my availability updated and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications (if needed), and any special care requests. I take time to help pets feel comfortable and make sure they always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay aware of our surroundings. In a client’s home, I treat both the home and pets with respect, keep everything clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I've taken care of dogs for most of my life since I was a teen. I myself was the proud owner of a miniature schnauzer for over 16 years, so I understand the desire to take excellent care of your pet, ensuring they are fed, walked, and most of all, loved! I would take care of your pet like they were my own. I'm currently searching for a full-time position for work, so I'm able to be more flexible during the week than what is typical when I'm working full-time in an office setting. That being said, I am flexible to take care of your pet during the work day or in the evenings for the time being! I am a calm and easygoing individual who would be able to follow instructions you leave for me in order to provide the same structure and routine for your pet that they typically have with you at home.

“Jamie was great and I will definitely use her again. She provided timely updates and pictures. I used her for drop in visits and had no problem trusting her in my home or with my small zoo :)”

“Very thorough and took great care of our fur babies. She goes above and beyond to engage with our fur babies and I can tell they already miss her. Will definitely use Miki again!”

Family and friends tell me that I treat my dogs like they are people; I say that I just love them and they love me. You can be sure that I would love and care for your pets just as much.

My schedule is flexible which allows me the opportunity to be home during the day, and all nights. Please, no aggressive dogs. I will make sure that your dogs are comfortable and safe with me. I have an 8' fenced back yard, with security cameras. I enjoy being outside with your furbabies and will provide that extra level of security when they are running around in the backyard. I have hard floors for easy clean-up. I also provide extra blankets to keep your furbabies warm. I also have a separate eating area set up for your furbabies. I keep one extra crate, if needed when you bring your dog.

About: I’ve loved caring for animals for as long as I can remember, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Over the years, I’ve cared for multiple pets at once and have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. As a proud dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I have completed two dog training courses (with my dogs), giving me a strong understanding of positive reinforcement, reading canine body language, and helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, a drop-in visit while you’re away, or a full day of companionship, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own dog. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease, knowing they’re in caring and dependable hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I am currently working remotely and I have a flexible schedule for dog walking and pet sitting throughout the week. I can easily accommodate weekdays and weekends. I am happy to care for your pet/s either at my house or yours. If you prefer my home, I do have a fenced yard and my dog is animal-friendly.

About: I’ve been a dog owner all my life, so giving proper and loving care has always been apart of my daily routine! For the past year, I have had the opportunity to dog sit for family, friends, and clients caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and personalities! I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure each dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always strive to provide dependable, attentive care so both pets and owners can have peace of mind. Hi!! My name is Chloe! I am recently a highschool graduate and I wanted to find a fun way to save for my future education in college! Pet care fits very well in my schedule because I prioritize planning my day around the pets I’m caring for! I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention to help each dog feel comfortable and cared for. I believe in sticking to each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe while their family is away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow each pet’s feeding, potty, exercise, and medication schedule while giving them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment, and I always pay close attention to their individual needs. I also enjoy sending photo updates so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.
