“Katherine is great with our dogs, shows up on time and spends the full 30 minutes requested with them to make sure they get all the jitters out of their system.”

“Nami and Enzo love Maya so much that they argue with each other as to who gets to go with Maya first! It's hilarious to see each visit, and I know my babies are well taken care of. Thank you, Maya!”

“I have a reactive dog who is very sensitive. I'm always worried about finding a new sitter, but Bubba loves Christine! He always seems to be in a better mood when she visits.”

About: I have a love for animals that you don’t see everyday. I deeply understand that your pets are your family, meaning their safety is my #1 priority. When your pet is in my care, they will be loved on and never left unattended. Sharing photos and text updates are a basic part of my drop in and walking care and I will always be available for calls/texts/facetimes should you have any questions, concerns or just want to say hi to your fur baby! I have also been a Dallas CASA volunteer for close to 2 years because caring for pets & children are truly a passion to me. I work from home and only occasionally have meetings, no longer than an hour at a time, so my schedule is flexible to fit your needs. My husband typically accompanies me on first visits or drop in visits after dark for safety precautions. Doors to the outside and gates from the yard are never left open, I understand because my dogs (and cat) can be runners. When I let the doggos out to use the restroom, they will be watched and not left unattended. I understand that elements such as weather, pools, holes in fences, etc. play a part in safety when pets are outside. When I stop by for visits, your pets will get all the love to make up for any time they’ve been left alone.
About: Hi, I’m Madie and I am a Zoology student and dog groomer! I began working with dogs in high school at a board and train facility and then trained to become a professional dog groomer. Now I am going back to school, studying Zoology and volunteering at the Dallas Zoo! I love any and all animals- I have two dogs, two cats, and two tarantulas myself. I would love to take care of your pets while you are away or need help with walks. I can also offer grooming services such as baths, nail trims, and haircuts if needed- just message me for rates! I am a full-time student and have full availability during the summer, with the exception of Monday and Fridays until 1pm- I volunteer with the zoo keepers at the Dallas Zoo these days! I take safety very seriously, especially when it comes to our furry friends! I keep a close, watchful eye over the dogs I watch and pay close attention on walks to ensure everyone is having a great time and staying safe!
About: My phone screen says it all...it's a photo of my dog, the first thing I see every morning and the face I look forward to coming home to. That love is exactly what I bring to every pet I care for. For 15 years, friends and family have trusted me with their pets during vacations, emergencies, and everything in between. I know that when an owner steps away, their pet feels it. I'm patient enough to sit with that, calm enough to reassure them, and attentive enough to know what they need in the moment. Whether that's extra cuddles, a familiar routine, or just a steady, loving presence. What sets me apart isn't just experience. It's that I genuinely care. Your pet won't just be looked after, they will feel it. One of the best things about my schedule right now is the flexibility. Working part time means I can shape my days around the pets in my care, whether that's an early morning walk, staying close during those first anxious hours after an owner leaves, or simply being home and present. Your pet won't spend the day waiting. They'll spend it with someone who's actually there. From the moment a pet enters my care, their comfort and safety come first. I live alone which means no unexpected chaos, just a calm space where pets can relax and settle in. My big backyard gives dogs plenty of room to run and explore safely, and my flexible schedule means I'm never rushing out the door. Your pet has my time and full attention. Trust is everything. Fifteen years of caring for friends' and family's pets has taught me how to earn it quickly, from the animals and their owners. I keep communication open with regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and loved. Whether I'm in my home or yours, my approach never changes: treat every animal exactly the way I'd want my own dog treated.
“Karen was wonderful! She took great care of my energetic lab. She was super informative and gave detailed updates for each walk. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.”

“I highly recommend Alicia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. Alicia accepted my last-minute request with no hesitation. Tony and I are both very grateful!”

“If I had to describe John in one word, it would be “amazing.” We are new to Dallas and needed someone to walk our two dogs on very short notice, and John was kind enough to step in and help. Our dogs are not difficult, but they definitely have their own personalities. One is a 120 lb German Shepherd who loves chasing squirrels (and climb trees to meet their families), rabbits, and sometimes even butterflies, and he also thinks he needs to make friends with every dog he sees. Our other one is an 18 lb Shih Tzu who is a little pampered and does not like walking in the sun. What really stood out to us was how patient, caring, and thoughtful John was with both of them. During the first couple of days, when our Shih Tzu decided he was done walking after finishing his business, John actually picked him up and carried him while continuing the walk because our German Shepherd still wanted more time outside. For the last few days, he even walked them separately so each of them could get the individual attention they needed. That level of care says a lot about John. He was always on time, courteous, respectful, responsible, and genuinely loving toward our dogs. We are very thankful for his help and would definitely look forward to having him take care of our boys again in the future.”

“Melissa continues to deliver excellent service—first with our kitties and now with our new puppy. She’s knowledgeable, thorough, and reliable. So happy to have her to care for my fur family.”
About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes. Currently I have 3 dogs of my own who don’t live with me. I have taken care of newborn puppies up until 8 weeks. I have experience with a variety of different pet breeds. Your pets are in good hands! I have a part-time job and am a full time student at college but I have plenty of time to go for walks or to pets sit at any home and will be most available during the months of May-August! In my apartment complex we have a special dog friendly area that is fenced. There will be me and another resident in the apartment and can expect to be home the majority of the day. I have no problem answering any questions or concern!

Melina has been wonderful with Nabi! Nabi always seems happy after her walks, and I have peace of mind knowing she’s in good hands. She’s caring, communicative, and has also been incredibly kind and flexible, which I really appreciate. I’m so glad I found her and would definitely recommend her!

Paris has taken care of my pets for some time now and she has always demonstrated being professional and caring, but most important she takes care of them as if they were her own pets. Both Luna and Astra love when she’s around and basically any other animal that interacts with her loves her immediately, I 100% recommend her to look over your pets very professional and trustworthy.
