“This is my second time booking Xandra and I couldn’t be happier. She is extremely attentive and communicates well. I really appreciate how quickly she responded and kept me updated throughout the trip. I def recommend her ! Book with her if you don’t want to worry about your fur babies while you’re away.”

“Michael is amazing. I took a week long vacation and Michael visited my home twice a day to care for my babies. He sends notes and pictures daily. He has exceeded my expectations. I will use him again in the future.”

About: Hi there, I’m Emma! I’m a stay at home mom, wife, college student, and Army Vet. I love doing what I do and happy to help :) I know how difficult it can be to leave a family member in someone else’s care. I treat every pet with the same integrity, patience, kindness, and care I’d want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re safe, happy, and in good hands. 🏠 Someone is home throughout most of the day in a family environment and plenty of loving attention 🐾 Frequent potty breaks and exercise ⛓️ Off leash play only in safe enclosed areas 🌊 Fresh water available at all times 📸 Daily photo and message updates ⌛️ Personalized care and routine ❗️ Safe and separate feeding 🤫 Quiet spaces for rest 🩵 Puppies, adults, and senior dogs welcome 🚫 No unnecessary crating 🏡💚 Safety & Environment I believe a safe environment starts with prevention, which is why I’m always mindful of each pet’s unique needs, routines, and comfort level.

“My first time ever using a sitter app and Lana was absolutely amazing! She was super attentive and her love for animals is just the icing on the cake. She communicated throughout the day, sent pics, and my 2 dogs and cat loved her so much !! I will most definitely use her again :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs basically my whole life. I worked in a vet clinic in Forney and worked in the doggy daycare at North Forney. I’ve cared for hyper puppies and old little ladies/gents. I’ve seen aggressive, scared, or super needy animals. I have the patience to care for any personality, and I have been trained to restrain aggressive animals as well. I honestly love animals and i’m looking to have fun with any type of pet that’s out there! I’ll be home and free for most of the summer as I am not doing online college until the fall. I will be a substitute teacher at Lewis Elementary in Forney coming the fall as well. I’m looking to have fun with all kinds of animals, friendly or not! I am very passionate and willing to work with any animal. I adjust myself depending on the animals personality. I know pets are like people, all unique in their own way. I know how to give medication, prevent dog fights, restrain both cats and dogs. As well as give simple shots. I’ve worked in a vet clinic for a few months about a year or two ago. I can say i’ve seen many kinds of animals, aggressive or not, and i’m willing to take care of any animal and their needs. I have my own car so if an emergency happened, I am able to take care of it straight away. I have always had a love and passion for animals, and I hope your furbabies trust me too!

“Sarah is absolutely outstanding. Very rapid response, timely and accurate communication from start to finish. Sarah preemptively scheduled a meet and greet so there were no surprises and the schedule was confirmed. She took excellent of my two dogs, sent pictures and updates, and even put the amazon packages in the screened in porch for me. I can't recommend Sarah highly enough, I will definitely be using her professional services again.”

About: Ever since I can remember, I’ve cared for pets. Whether caring for my own or pet-sitting for others, my life has been surrounded with furry friends! I work part time, and my summer schedule is especially flexible as my main job follows the school year cycle. I am home a lot during the summer and have the ability to stay home if necessary as I know some pets need constant attention and oversight. I have a fenced yard and a 4 year old lab mix who LOVES to play! She will definitely help keep your pup entertained for hours. I have never had any issues with her being aggressive; she truly thinks everyone is her friend. I also have a German Shepherd! She’s sweet, but does tend to be a bit territorial. She likes to appear aggressive, but has actually done very well with other dogs! I have never experienced her causing an actual dog fight.

About: I love pets. I have owned a dog my whole life. On top of owning a dog I also would dog sit for neighbors in my neighborhood. I start dog sitting around the age of 12. I have dog sat puppies who needed to go out a lot as well as play with them a lot to get energy out. I also have watched elderly dogs. I have no problem cleaning up dog messes that can happen in the house. I have dealt with a wide variety of dog fluid due to my own dog. I am one who will get there hands dirty. I also love playing with pets and getting on the floor to get their energy out. I have a dog of my own. I make sure to get her outside multiple times a day as well as getting a walk in once a day. During the week I take my dog to the dog park to get interactions with other dogs. I am a stay at home mom who has a very flexible schedule. I have experience with excited dogs who love seeing new people or just getting out to walk. I make sure when walking dogs to give them time to explore while still keeping them safe. When walking if other people or dogs walk past i make sure the dog I am walking is by my side opposite of those walking past for safety.

About: What sets us apart from other pet sitters is our extensive experience and genuine passion for animal care. With several years of hands-on experience, we have had the privilege of delivering newborn puppies and providing specialized care to pets with disabilities. Our approach to pet sitting is not just about ensuring that your pets are safe; it’s about providing them with love and tailored care that suits their individual needs. Our loving family includes our own English Bulldog, who are incredibly social and enjoy playing with other dogs. We make frequent trips to the dog park, which helps our Bulldogs stay well-socialized and happy. Our pets are up-to-date with their flea, tick, and heartworm treatments, and they thrive on regular exercise. We believe that playtime is just as important indoors as it is outside, so your pets will enjoy a mix of both during their stay with us. We would be thrilled to meet you and your family, and we look forward to the opportunity to provide your pets with the same high level of care and affection that we offer our own. Feel free to reach out to arrange a visit or ask any questions. We can’t wait to welcome you and your furry friends into our home! Pet care is an integral part of our daily and weekly routine, woven seamlessly into our lives. Here’s a glimpse into how it fits into our schedule: **Daily Routine:** - **Morning:** Each day begins with early morning walks for our English Bulldogs, ensuring they start the day with exercise and a chance to socialize. After the walk, we provide breakfast and any necessary medications or treatments. - **Midday:** Throughout the day, we monitor and engage with the pets, offering playtime, training exercises, and regular check-ins to ensure their comfort and well-being. - **Evening:** In the evening, we take another walk or visit to the dog park, followed by dinner and winding down with some indoor play or relaxation time. This ensures they get plenty of exercise and attention, both physically and mentally. **Weekly Routine:** - **Health and Maintenance:** We stay on top of regular health maintenance, such as flea, tick, and heartworm treatments. We also schedule any necessary grooming or veterinary appointments. - **Socialization:** We make frequent trips to the dog park and arrange playdates with other dogs to ensure our pets remain well-socialized and happy. - **Training and Enrichment:** We incorporate training sessions and enrichment activities throughout the week to keep our pets mentally stimulated and to reinforce good behavior. By integrating these routines, we ensure that our pets receive consistent care and attention, creating a balanced and fulfilling environment for them. This same level of dedication and routine is applied to the pets in our care, so you can be confident that they’ll be treated with the same love and attention. The approach to pet care varies depending on whether we’re offering boarding, overnight stays, walking, or drop-in services. Here’s how we handle each scenario: ### **1. Boarding:** When pets stay with us for boarding, we create a home-away-from-home environment tailored to their needs: - **Comfortable Space:** Pets enjoy a cozy, dedicated space in our home, complete with their own bedding and toys to make them feel comfortable and secure. - **Daily Routine:** We follow a structured routine that mirrors their home life as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, and playtime. - **Socialization:** Our English Bulldogs and other pets are great companions, and we facilitate supervised interactions to ensure a smooth integration. - **Health Monitoring:** We keep a close eye on their health, administering any medications as needed and ensuring they receive regular check-ups and care. ### **2. Overnight Stays:** For overnight stays in a client’s home, our focus is on maintaining their routine and providing peace of mind: - **Home Comfort:** We respect their home environment, ensuring everything is left as we found it and that their usual comforts are maintained. - **Routine Maintenance:** We follow their established routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, keeping everything consistent to minimize stress. - **Security and Safety:** We ensure the home is secure and follow any specific instructions given by the pet owner to ensure their pet’s safety and comfort. ### **3. Walking:** Dog walking services are designed to give pets exercise and mental stimulation: - **Scheduled Walks:** We adhere to the agreed schedule, providing regular walks that meet the pet’s exercise needs and preferences. - **Route Variety:** To keep walks interesting, we vary the routes and incorporate different sights and smells, making each outing enjoyable. - **Leash Manners:** We reinforce good leash manners and ensure a safe, enjoyable walk, taking care to avoid any potential hazards. ### **4. Drop-Ins:** Drop-in services involve visiting pets to provide care while owners are away: - **Feeding and Watering:** We provide fresh food and water, following the pet’s regular feeding schedule. - **Exercise and Play:** We engage in playtime and provide some exercise, based on the pet’s preferences and needs. - **Health Check:** During each visit, we check for any signs of health issues and ensure the pet is comfortable and happy. - **Update Reports:** We keep pet owners updated with reports or photos, so they can feel connected and reassured. In all scenarios, the goal is to offer a consistent, caring experience that aligns with the pet’s routine and needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while they are in our hands.

“Stephen exceeded my expectations. I was really worried about leaving my boys and he not only talked me through the whole process he was very reassuring. Not to mention, I think the boys were sad when it was me coming home instead of him; they loved him. We will definitely book with him again!”

About: I’ve taken care of fur babies for the past 10 years now even have 2 of my own. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their precious babies, walk, feed, bathe, play, and even stay with them. I’m currently working part-time and in school Monday- Thursday for half the day so I have plenty of time to take care of your precious fur baby(babies). I am available anytime during the weekends, weekdays would have to be discussed in advance. I commute to my clients house to take care of their fur babies. Clients typically leave instructions if needed otherwise I feed the dog 1-2 times a day, potty breaks, walks, park play if that is something my client is up for and lot of snuggles, pets and love.

“It was our first time having Aleona drop in to do med time for our girl and it went great. She was prompt and the dogs seemed to have enjoyed her company.”

“Anran was great for my two kitties. Very reliable, punctual, and responsible. Went out of her way to clean things in my apartment and go get supplies from the store without me asking. Would 100% hire her again and would recommend her to friends. Thanks, Anran!”

Haley S.

“Last min booking with Montana and it went great! I greatly appreciated her communication and kindness with my Kayo. Hope to become a fur-ever client of hers! She went above and beyond and given it was my first booking with Rover, I truly felt so lucky to have found her! 🐾”

About: Great with cats (and dogs too)! Real life experience with gentle senior cat care and cat’s with health issues needing medication (I had a cat with diabetes for several years). I understand how hard it is to leave your pet even for a short trip. I will take care of your pet the way I would want someone to take care of mine! I work from home and I would be able to take care of one or two pets at a time. My schedule is open for daily drop ins with a limit of 1-2 pets. I have cared for my daughter’s dog in our home on occasion. We have a large fenced yard that is perfect for dogs with supervision. We also have a cat room in our home that has appropriate furnishings to keep cats comfortable and occupied.

“She is amazing, checked in, kept us updated the entire time, lots of pictures, she’s great, 110% I’m going to hire her the next time we need someone for the pets.”
