Top rated McKinney house sitters

“Victoria took amazing care of our boys and our house was quite tidy coming home from a long weekend. She shared updates each day with amazing photos! Will 100% be rebooking.”



“Our dog does not like people other than my wife really. But she took to Christine on day one and was climbing into her lap that night. It is such a relief to know someone who gets along with our dog is taking care of them. Would definitely hire again!”



“Brady and Apollo are obsessed with Elizabeth as much as we are! She is always on time and comes in with the best attitude. She is super easy to work with and we have 100% complete trust in her with our babies. (That’s very hard for us to let go but she makes it a breeze!)”


“We love having Ana stay at our house and watch our cats and dogs. She is the first sitter who has been able to get our shy kitty to come out and let her pet him - she is a cat whisperer! She always treats out home with a lot of respect and we come home to find everything just as we left it. She also takes the cutest pics of our crew to share with us while we're away. We couldn't be happier!”


“Ariana was really great with our boy! We will definitely use her again in the future.”


“Tiffany was great with my Gracie! It took her a few hours to remember her, as my dog is super weary of newcomers. By the end of her time with Gracie all was well. Will def book Tiffany again! And the house was super clean after :-)”


“Misha was incredible! He communicated so well, took both my dogs on their daily separate walks, and sent a ton of pictures. My dogs normally seem anxious when I get home from being out of town but they seemed so chill & I could tell they got plenty of attention and activity while I was gone. I will definitely be requesting to book with him again next time I need a sitter or drop in visits!”


“Taylor did an excellent job house sitting during the holidays! We got lots of videos which were very much appreciated. Will love to hire her again.”


“Laura was absolutely amazing! She is the first dog sitter I have used for one of my pups and I could not have felt more confident with her at my house. She constantly sent photos/ was understanding of my dogs needs and was always available to give me an update! I could not recommend her enough and hope to use her again soon!”


“Brooke is amazing and commmnicated the entire time with updates while watching my three dogs during her house stay. Highly recommend booking her for your next vacation!”


“Shanda was so thoughtful to us and our pup. She came in during an emergency trip we needed to take and we could not ask for more. Her updates made us feel so comfortable. We knew Eve was safe and having a great time. Highly recommend her for any care because she will spoil your fur baby like a grandparent.”


“Kimberly was so wonderful with my senior dog, Star. Star has some nervousness with new people and Kimberly was so patient and understanding. I felt very confident leaving Star in her care.”


“Daniel took exceptional care of our two dogs. He was very communicative, kind, and accommodating. I felt at ease from the moment we dropped them off, and Daniel continued to make me feel so throughout their stay. I highly, highly recommend him!”


“Lexi was communicative, respectful of our home, and most importantly, took great care of our new puppy. After we unexpectedly rescued a puppy, we needed to find care quickly for a trip we already had planned. Lexi went out of her way to meet us for a meet & greet and understood the hurdles we were currently facing with our new rescue. She stayed in our home the whole time, provided regular updates, and was not just a respectful and courteous house guest but an amazing caretaker for our pup. I'd definitely recommend her and would love to book again!”


“We feel so lucky to have found Zephyr! They took great care of our Lyla (old dog) and Mango (young cat) while we were away for family vacation. We hope to have them sit for us again and again. They are thoughtful and kind and left our place spotless and our pets happy!”


“Taylor is so great with our dog Wilbur. She is an excellent communicator and follows directions to a tee. Our house was in excellent shape when we got home!”


“My husband and I had Jessica watch our two elderly dogs for an entire week in September while we were out of the country and I have to say she was a dream sitter! It is obvious just how much she cares about what she does. She’s attentive, gives great communication, she’s kind, and patient! We felt totally at easy leaving our fur babes with her. We could tell that they had a lovely, anxiety free time with her. She took great care of our home (thank you so much!) and we look forward to having her stay with Meggie and Benny in the future. Thank you for everything Jessica!”


“Mo was a wonderful sitter. Great energy, great communication, and the boys took to him immediately, which doesn't always happen. Took great care of the house as well. I'd feel very comfortable leaving my pups with Mo again. Will definitely rebook.”



“Chelsea was a great sitter for my big baby! She was very communicative throughout her stay and sent great photos that made it clear that my Marty was feeling happy, safe, and well-cared-for. I highly recommend Chelsea to all dog parents, especially those with pups who can be high-maintenance, as she’s super patient and kind!”


“Luciana was amazing! She watched our two high-energy rescue dogs for the night, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. Our pups can be a handful, but she handled them with such care and confidence! They absolutely loved her! When we got home, they were happy, well-exercised, and clearly well cared for. Luciana also sent us lots of great photos and updates. On top of that, the house looked great when we returned. We’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced petsitter!”
