Home away from home

My number one priority is to make sure your dog feels at home away from home! We live in a quite neighborhood near the lake, with a nice fenced backyard where your dog can play fetch, frisbee or just relax in the sunshine ! Your fur baby will never be left unattended while he's outside! Your dog will also be able to roam around our house freely. I work from home and own a 3 year old Australian Shepherd who will soon become your dogs best friend! I make sure to take my dog on daily walks and your fur baby will always tag along ! Your dog will get lots of affection, from me but also from my husband who also works from home! I love taking photos of dogs, so you will 100% be getting texts from me with photos of your baby having the time of his life !

Alex was amazing at taking care of my Australian Shepherd. She really got to know my dog as seen through the daily pictures that she sent. I totally trust her and would definitely use Alex again!

Alexina and her husband were great with Dice. They took very good care of him. They are very knowledgeable with the needs of high energy breeds and provided Dice with physical and mental enrichment. They took Dice for walks and included him in their activities like picnic etc. Stilton is very sweet and was an amazing play partner for Dice. Alexina shared regular updates and pictures every day. We could have a stress free vacation because of them and I am very thankful. We recommend them to everyone and want to keep Dice with them for our future travels.

Alexina was awesome! She is so nice and took such good care of Hallie. I felt very comfortable and at ease after having a meet up before our trip. I also received lots of updates and pictures while away. Thank you for taking great care of Hallie!

Alexina and her husband made Cosmo feel VERY “at home”. 😃. Providing me with a short video and pictures assured me that my pup was being loved and well taken care of! And he loved having their dog to play and run with. Thank you!

We worked with Alexina a few times before needing to leave our pup for a week long vacation. I can’t say enough about how wonderful the care and communication was! We received many updates throughout the week and could tell our dog was relaxed and happy with Alexina and her husband. It was a great experience for our entire family!

Alexina (and Stilton) took great care of our Aussie. They were wonderful hosts and we would gladly recommend them to anyone looking for a rover in the DFW area.

Safety, trust & environment

I know what it feels like having to leave your dog to complete strangers for a weekend, or even a week because life doesn’t always allow your best friend to tag along. I’ve been there, and I always feel so much better knowing my dog will be in good hands! That’s why you can trust me and my husband to take the absolute best care of your dog! We are dog people! Your dog will be loved and cared for while you’re away! Our dog Stilton is a very energetic and friendly aussie, and loves to have company! Our backyard is fenced and there’s plenty of space to run around, snif and play. !

A typical day

I love seeing my own dog enjoying some play time, so we often play fetch and frisbee in our backyard! Morning walks by the lake are a ritual at home so your dog will enjoy the fresh air with us
