“Giovanna and Mason are great with our 2 dogs. They've taken care of them for 5-10 days on a few occasions now so we obviously think very highly of Giovanna and the level of care she provides. They love dogs so we don't feel as guilty when we travel and can't take the pups with us, we know they're being cared for and played with. Highly recommend! ”


“We had the best experience with Paulette! She sent regular photos and updates, bought our dog a cute bandana and even gave us a thank you gift with a handwritten thank you note. Can't recommend enough.”

“I actually got recommended to Cheri through a friend! Truly the best in the business. I live in Waco and would drive hours to get to this woman, if I had to! I felt so beyond safe leaving my little bunny rabbit, Sefid, with her and am wary, typically, to allow anyone to watch her! She treated Sefid like her own so much so, that I was having a hard time getting her ready to leave! Thank you again, Cheri ? You’re stuck with me!”

“Amber is very sweet and took great care of my dog, Ellie. Amber even gave her a bath so when I picked Ellie up she was so fluffy and smelled so good! I would recommend Amber to anyone who’s looking for boarding in the area.”

About: I have cared for pets and people for many years. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits & chickens, and I dream of someday having my own homestead. I have years of experience as a care taker for children & the elderly, but if I'm being honest I much prefer the company of pets over people! I've fostered feral cats and rescued runaway dogs. There is something so pure about the love of an animal. I have a daughter (3 years old now) who loves animals so much and gets so excited every time she gets to meet a doggie or kitty, so she truly loves coming along with me for these jobs! My schedule is very flexible at this time: I'm available for daytime visits and overnight care to spend time with and love on your fur-babies! 😻 I have a great deal of respect when visiting others homes. I always take special care to leave it cleaner than I found it and tidy up any messes as needed. A clean home is a happy home! Bedding in the crate needs to be laundered or litter box needs to be cleaned out? No problem! I can also water plants, take in the mail, put trash cans out, pickup packages from the porch, load the dishwasher or whatever may be needed! I want to be of service to you and your pet as much as I can during my time in your home. References available upon request.

About: Hi! My name is Erin and I am really looking forward to meeting you and your pup(s)! I am a Professional Dog Trainer and my husband is a full time air traffic controller, we are residing in Hillsboro, TX with 3 pups and a cat of our own 😊. If you’re anything like me, you hate leaving your pups but unfortunately you just can’t take them everywhere.... yet! For awhile, I would feel so guilty and said no to outings with friends, trips, and great experiences... until I started to trust that someone could take care of my animals the way I expect them to be! I want to offer this calming and stress-free feeling to you. Life should not stop because you decided to love and home a pup or two....or three 😊 If there is anything additional you would like me to consider/offer, please do not hesitate to ask! I am more than willing to accommodate you and your pup(s) as much as I can. I really look forward to working with you and appreciate you trusting me with your pup 😊 I work from home, which gives me plenty of time to get out and about with some pups! I stay active with going to the gym daily and walking my own pups, so I am more than ready to take care of yours as well. Environmentally, I have 2 fenced yards that allow for time to themselves if your dog enjoys that! I am a dog behaviorist so I understand dog’s needs and personalities to ensure they are comfortable with the environment they are in. Working as a Professional Dog Trainer has given me great experience in making judgement calls need be, but I love detailed instructions to make sure things go exactly how you’d like.

About: Hi, my name is Adrianna! I live in the Corsicana area. I’m very flexible with my schedule currently and more than willing to take care of your pets! I love all dogs. My whole life I have had dogs as pets and know how to care for them and also have fun. At home, I have three dogs, Peanut (cocker spaniel mix), Bailey (boxer mix), and Nala (pittie mix). All 3 dogs are rescues/from the shelter and are the most loving, fun trio! I will treat your dogs as if they are my own, providing them with play time and belly rubs! I am currently post-grad. I am very flexible with my schedule as of now, mornings and late afternoons. Any day of the week is good for me currently. I have three dogs at home. Bailey and Nala are very playful and get along with small and big dogs. They both like to be outside whether that’s running in the backyard or wrestling with each other. Peanut is a smaller dog and doesn’t mind other dogs, but he is very calm and plays on rare occasions. He mainly stays to himself while the others play.
