Dog Sitting McKinney

About: I have spent my life surrounded by animals! When I was 5 I got my first pet, he was a chihuahua, that I was lucky to have for 15 years before he passed. Now I have two cats named Asta and Poppy that I have had for 4 years! Over the years I have developed an extensive client list that contains family, friends, coworkers, and bosses. The dogs I have taken care of range from small, medium, and large. Along with drop ins and house sitting for cats. I have experienced administering insulin shots and giving medication. House sitting, drop ins, walking, and boarding at my place are jobs I have done. I will love your animals as if they are my own and treat them with the best care I can possibly give! I would love it if you picked me for your pet care needs!! I am currently working full time 7:45-5 and understand this can be difficult schedule to work with because of potty breaks. I also have two pets of my own that I take care of. Even though they are cats and are pretty self sufficient, they still need company and stimulation! With proactive communication, I am certain we can establish a way to make our relationship work for the both of us! I have two cats at home! They are pretty self sufficient and really appreciate company. They prefer solo play but there is this string toy that they LOVE and everyday when I get home we play for as long as they are interested! I also work on the tricks I have taught them everyday. For your pets I will treat them like my own and respect their space when they need it!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for years and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m responsible, active, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have a pretty open schedule and will be able to attended to whatever the dog needs, and will always try my best to do so. I have a pretty big open back yard that also is fenced in. Our house is safe and the dogs will have room to roam

About: I always grew up with dogs in the family as a kid and started adopting fur babies as soon as I got my first apartment. I currently have 3 cats and 2 dogs and have had them for the last 10-14 years. I've also rescued several other animals that I helped re-home because all the pet space in our house was full. I have experience giving oral and topical medication, as well as insulin shots. I'm comfortable caring for all ages of pets, the majority of mine were under a year when I rescued them and technically most of them are seniors now. /Tear I'm an EMT/Dispatcher with 10 years in the medical field and I'm not squeamish or rattled easily and I understand much like people, sometimes accidents happen that need cleaning up or pets are sick and just need a little extra care. I currently work full-time at a hospital and wanted to find some extra work that was more flexible that committing to an extra 12 hour shift plus traffic and animals are always a bonus. I am looking to book appointments Wed-Friday right now, since those are my off days. I'm comfortable in my ability to be around animals and know how they're feeling, I'm open drop in visits, play time visits, walks, medication needs and will absolutely meet with you beforehand so I can be sure I'm taking care of your pets the same way that you would and that everyone feels respected and protected. I am: 🌈 LGBT friendly 💉 Covid Vaccinated 🐾 Comfortable with all ages and temperaments

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for about 3 years. I enjoy getting to know the client’s pets and adapting to new environments. I can’t wait to meet with you! Currently I’m working part-time, usually in the morning. Having my afternoon and evenings free allows time to take care of pets. Depending on the booking time, I’ll also have time during weekends. For House-sitting, since I’ll do most of the care at the client’s home, I’ll follow your instructions in terms of care and food. Dog-walking will also be the same, I’ll have bags provided. I can also have playtime with the pets as well.

“Sara is an excellent pet sitter! My cat isn’t always the warmest with new people and she was able to win her over like it was the easiest thing in the world. She follows any special instructions you need for your pet and takes the time to get to know them. I have already booked Sara for my next out of town trip. You will be happy you booked with her!”

About: I grew up with dogs and recently potty trained our 2-year-old puppy! With experience using Rover, I understand what makes a stay great and what’s needed to make dog owners feel comfortable leaving their pets in a new environment! As a teacher, I’m fully available on weekends and can offer drop-ins and potty breaks in the evenings during the week. When I’m not in school, I’m ready and excited to take care of your pup! If I’m caring for your pet, they’ll have my undivided attention! Whether it’s playtime or a walk, I’m right there, engaging with them to burn off that energy. I make sure to follow your pet’s routine and needs closely, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved, whether in my home or yours.

About: I fell in love with & have been taking care of animals since I was 8 years old. The majority of my experience is with dogs and cats but I also have experience with caring for rabbits, cows, and horses. Our pets are our family and will be treated as such with me. I love taking and sharing pics of furbabies! I work from home and will have lots of time to spend with and care for your pet. I’m conveniently located next to Towne Lake in McKinney for peaceful walks. I have an apartment and work from home full time. I’ll be available to take pets on walks as much as needed or just for fun.

“April was fantastic! She had great communication with me during her visits and our pups had the best time. Thank you April for letting us trust you with our fur babies! Highly recommend.”

“Jamie is wonderful! She will love and play with your fur babies as if they were her own. I forgot to give my baby his allergy meds one morning and she was able to run over and do it when she did her visit . She truly is the dog whisper. She’s great! Jaime will be the one I get when we need sitting. Thanks Jaime for everything!”

About: Do you have experience with young dogs, old dogs, dogs with special needs, dogs on medication and dogs needing lots of love and exercise. We love to play in this house and are very engaged with your pet. We have two doggy doors and 3 years experience. We are an active family and are willing to play, comfort, and make your pet feel at home. We are looking for pets that have no hostility or history of abuse but rather are comfortable with children. We have experience with all sizes of dogs up to Italian Mastif sized. It would be a blessing to help watch your furry family member. Must love long walks in the grass and running about. Lots of love and snuggles. Party of 5 We are an active, family-oriented household, and someone is home most of the time, which allows us to provide plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. We love getting outside for walks and activities, but we're just as happy spending quiet time giving belly rubs and snuggles. Your pet will be treated like part of the family and will receive lots of love, care, and companionship while you're away. Providing a safe, loving, and low-stress environment is my top priority. For dogs staying in our home, we have a secure, board-on-board fenced backyard with locked gates and a doggy door that allows them safe access to the outdoors for potty breaks and play. Because someone is home most of the time, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. For cats, we create a calm and enriching environment with cozy spaces to relax, plenty of areas to explore, and windows where they can enjoy watching the world go by. I understand that every cat has a different personality, so I take the time to follow their individual routines and comfort levels. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their established schedules and routines to help them feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Whether it's feeding, walks, litter box maintenance, medications, playtime, or lots of affection, I care for every pet as though they were one of my own.

“Angelique is the best! She checks on my cats when I am out of town and they love her, And as cat owners know, that’s high praise! She she is a wonderful and kind and very communicative. She is my absolute go to when I need to care.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, watching over dogs and cats for friends, coworkers, and family friends. Growing up in a family that always owned large dog breeds made me very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand the patience, attention, and care both dogs and cats need to feel safe and comfortable. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing reliable, loving care to keep pets happy and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily schedule as I have a flexible routine with plenty of availability throughout the day. This allows me to provide consistent attention, whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening visits, and be reliable for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs pets may have. I care for pets in my client’s home by following their routine closely, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I ensure fresh water is always available, clean up after pets, and maintain a safe, calm environment. I also give them attention and companionship, watch for any health or behavior changes, and respect the home by keeping everything clean and organized.

“We love Ashley! She is very sweet to all the animals. Went above and beyond. She communcated very well.”

About: Ive never met a dog or cat that doesn't instantly like me and same for me too! Kindness & Respect go along way with pets. I treat them like I would want to be treated if I was an animal. Ive always been a hard worker and do my best to make others happy, human or animal. Im dependable and easy to work with. I believe communication is key in life. Im respectful of others home, property & privacy. I will take good care of your babies & whatever you trust me with. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies. 😊 I am retired. My schedule is pretty open. I do deliver part time here & there. However, pets come first and I'm dedicated pet sitter. I am very attentive to your pets. Notes of your pets usual routines, likes & dislikes help to continue easy days & nights while you are away.

About: I’m very good with dogs and love taking care of them and playing with them. All sizes are easy to handle for me with dogs. I am currently working a full time job, but can easily still take care of clients fur baby’s in the evening times and on the weekends I allow my dog to stay inside as much as he wants and when he needs to go potty I walk him on the leash until he uses the potty. Then when he wants I will let him sun bathe on our patio as long as he wants as well

“Amy was amazing! She gave us such peace of mind with her quick responses and daily check-ins! She gave our babies lots of love, and we were able to really enjoy our vacation!”

“Joshna is fantastic. She was extremely attentive to both kitties and always in communication with us, while we were away. Our cats were very comfortable around her and she is easily the nicest pet sitter we have ever had. We would book Joshna again in a heartbeat - and so should you!”

About: Hi, I am Molly! I have owned several dogs throughout my life, and currently own an adorable Pit-bull and Boxer mix. I also have experience with cats because my roommate currently has too and I help her with caring for them. I have been pet sitting and walking dogs for years. I have also volunteered at the SPCA in Houston many times. I also currently work for wag so you know i have experience. I have only ever received 5 star ratings, and almost everybody leaves reviews saying how great I am with their dogs. I will treat your furry friends as if they are my own. This means that they will be receiving all the love in the world. I am currently a graduate student at SFA

About: I have experience with dogs of all ages; administering medications to both the elderly and young pups, as well as appropriate exercise according to the needs of each individual pet. I love being able to give each pet the attention they deserve and cater to their individual needs! I currently work 38 hours throughout the week with hopes to move to part-time. My weekend schedule is flexible and I do not work at all! Tuesdays and Fridays are half days, so while I cannot care for pets in the morning, I am more than happy to accommodate them after 1:30 p.m. on those days. I prefer clarity in all situations before I begin my work. Any questions I have will be asked upfront, and I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have! I treat every animal with the love and care I would want my own fur babies to be treated with, and each pet has their own preferences that I would love to cater to.
