“Aleisa is such a pleasure to work with. Friendly and engaging. Puts Wendy’s timid personality first when interacting. Definitely makes time to make us feel comfortable with leaving and Wendy feel safe when we are gone. So grateful to have found her.”

“Relocating from Los Angeles to Tyler for my residency at UT Tyler was stressful, and I was especially worried about leaving my fur babies, Luna P and Washington, with a sitter during the holidays for a whole week. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Raul. He kept me updated throughout the week with pictures and thoughtful texts, even asking for specific details to ensure he was meeting my pets' needs. Raul was on top of everything, and it was clear he truly cared about my bbs. Washington, who is very shy and nervous around strangers, warmed up to Raul by day three and was even playing with him! Knowing my pets were in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my time with family, without any worries. I highly recommend Raul. He is trustworthy, responsible, and reliable—qualities I truly appreciated during such a busy and stressful time.”


About: I have had pets my whole life, from cats, dogs (all sizes), fish, lizards, cows, horses, pigs, sheep, and more! I have had all kinds of dogs, from little Dachshunds to great big Newfoundlands - often at the same time! I have worked for 5 different vets and know the difference between when your pet just needs to go poop and when they need to go to the vet NOW. I am not squeamish - vomit, poop, pee, blood, pus, hairballs - I can handle it all! I am good at giving pets their medicine, and can manage any feeding regimen. I have always taken care of friend and family pets while they are out of town. I can make friends with any cat or dog, and I would love to make friends with yours! I work full time but I can come by after work to take your pet(s) on walks or check on them. I can house sit Friday evenings through the whole weekend. Safety is my #1. When I am with your pet, my focus is on them and their well being. I watch for heat sickness, allergies, bloat, tummy upset, bug bites, boo boos, and more.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 13. From taking care of neighbors dogs and cats to raising my own cows and pigs, I have experience with every animal under the sun. I now work in the veterinary industry so I can identify any problematic symptoms while your pet is in my care. I will strive to make your baby happy and comfortable as long as I am responsible for them! I only work part time, so I have flexibility in my schedule. I am available all day on Sunday and after 2 on Saturdays. After 3 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and after 5 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I am comfortable accommodating your pet in any way they need, from going on walks in the neighborhood to administering medicines daily. Let me know what your baby needs, and I will get it done!

We make our own dog food, and this is always a worry when we leave. Thank goodness Dolly followed our recipe when we ran out of dog food one weekend! Dolly is professional and has the ability to care for dogs, cats and horses. We recommend her highly.”
