“Jamiahya took good care of my elderly dog while I was away for a week. She provided daily updates and photos that really put me at ease. I highly recommend her to care for your dog or cat.”
About: I’m a single mother working as a home health nurse. Who could use the extra income. I’m very reliable and very loving to animals. I know how to care for a furry friend, because they are like family and they mean so much to me. I feel like this is perfect for me because I’ll be able to spend more time with my daughter and be a better mother and to give her everything she ever needs and wants. I’m going to love your furry friend just as much as you do and more. I won’t hurt or disrespect you animal and I’ll be very interject with them. I hope I get to spend time with you babies and give them all the love. P
“The sitter was friendly, and my dogs seemed to have fun during their stay. I like their doggy door and backyard with a nice fence. My dogs were returned bathed and smelling good.”
“Lauren and her family were outstanding!! She answered any questions I had, sent pictures, and just loved on Oreo like he was theirs! He even got a bath before I picked him up! Oreo was very well taken care of and I will continue to book with her for future if she is available!”
About: I have been in the dog world since I was 9 years old — I worked with shelter dogs with foster care, medical treatment, and dog training with dogs from puppies to senior age. I raised Toy Fox Terriers for dog shows (like you see on TV) and sports! I care for my two Toy Fox Terriers, one who is a show dog and sports dog and the other who is a service dog. I follow all of the guidelines and rules that pet clients give to me. I make sure that there’s no open doors without a leash on or a gated yard, no food or destructible items are left unattended, pay attention to schedules, and closely monitor for any health issues or concerns that might arise!
“We were so lucky to find Barbara to take care of our princess! Being rural, it can be hard to find a nice place where your fur baby can stay in a safe environment while also feeling "at home" and not in a kennel all day. Barbara fit the bill! She was so sweet to send pictures every day while we were gone and even trimmed her nails! Thanks Barbara!”
“Dolce is truly a blessing in every way. She always showed so much care and love for our cat. She returned messages promptly and was always so kind in every interaction. I would highly recommend her to everyone.”
“I wish I could give twenty stars! Callum and his girlfriend are incredible, they went above and beyond to care for my cat. Some unforseen setbacks came up with scheduling on my end, but they took everything in stride and were able to adapt at a moment's notice. So easy to work with and fantastic communication. Can't recommend them enough, they really came through when I needed someone responsible and dependable.”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm where we had horses, cows, goats, dogs, cats, chicken, peacocks, and emus. My family has one dog right now, Oreo. I work a full time job Mon-Fri but I’m off on the weekends. My girls and I would enjoy loving on your fur babies while your away. I have a good sized fenced in back yard and a puppy for your pet/s to play with. I will follow any directions you may have for your fur baby.
About: Im responsable in my care and love for both animals and people. I have 4 years of experience with helping family and friends I can do puppy training but I will need a list of what commands are already being taught. I will give senior dogs lots of care and love. Really the only downside is that I live in Etoile 30minutes out from lufkin I can do pick up and drop off for additional fees. I can also groom a dog for an additional fee. I have college Monday through Thursday but from Friday to Sunday i am available. I won’t be able to work holidays such as Christmas,Valentine's day, July fourth ect… I live on lake SamRayburn with a very big unfenced yard. whether or not a leash is needed can be discussed I just feel as though it would be safer. My house environment is docile and friendly. We have hard wood flooring along with plenty of space to runaround for a small dog. There are two pets in the house an orange tabby male cat named tyson (he is mainly outside) and a seiner Maltopoo female dog named coconut both are good with other dogs. I will take into account safety for your dog by having them on a leash when out if it is preferred (but i will probably still use the leash just for safety) if walking near water the dog will be watched with a close eye. And bathing will be available as well for additional fees.
