Life Is Better With A Pet... Sitter

I Service the Rockwall/Greenville/Sulphur Springs and surrounding areas. Pet training/Boarding/Sitting/Care is my full time job. My service is a high end service where your pet is pampered. I started this line of work because I could not find any services that were high end for my own pup “Soccer”. My website goes into more detail on my about page. Our pet care is a VIP (very important pet) experience. Your pet will stay as a guest in my home (or when caring for them in your environment) and be treated as a member of the family. You will start with a consultation and a chance to see my home and meet me. All of your pets needs will be gone over in great detail. If your pup is able each day your pup will be taken on a walk, played outdoors & Indoors, enjoy treats (if allowed) and so much more. When your pet stays in my home, they have a room dedicated to them. However if they wish they may sleep in my room in their bed or even with me. A GPS tracking device will be on your pet at all times so you never have to fear they could run off or get loose. I keep a detailed file on each pet I care for to be sure to treat them exactly as you would. My goal is to make pet parents feel comfortable with no worries. I send daily pictures as well. Missing your pup? Not to worry video chat can be pre-scheduled at anytime. I foster a healthy, safe, and trustworthy environment for your pets. My home sits on 1 acre, so if your pup needs a lot of outside time, we can do that. If they needs more inside time, that's fine as well. Each pet is so different, and I work hard to learn their personalities so that they have a pawsome time when they are with us. Your pet is my only focus during its stay. No pup is ever unattended. I am always with your pup when they are out doors, and they are alway on leash or in a fenced in area with me by their side. *Please note, I am very selective of what pets and pet parents I will work with. I keep things professional and only work with pups and pet parents who qualify for our service. Safety always comes first. Also, I am a professional dog trainer, if you would like your pup to receive any dog training while you are away, at their drop-in’s or while staying in my home, I can provide this service. I work with dogs who have never been trained up to dogs that just need a small refresher. Pet care is my routine. After our consultation I scheduled my day to fit around your pet’s needs. Whatever schedule they are used to, I try to match that same schedule exactly as if you were here with them. If we are caring for your pet in your home, we again care for your pet according to your specifications. I fit my scheduled around your pets routine as if you were here with them. Now all I need is to meet you and your pet. Because "YOU" are what makes us Pawsome. My reputation and reviews speak for itself. Please visit my website and click on reviews.

Alia was great with my 2 dogs. Responsive, easy scheduling (Flexible!) and an awesome overall positive vibe! Hubs and I travel fulltime for our job, and we need to find a new dog sitter in new cities. So glad we found Alia. Thanks--🤩 If we ever pass through the area again, we'll be checking in with Alia ❤️

Alia was great with Tucker. I booked her last minute and she was very flexible. I didn’t have solid times until the night before and she was easy to work with. While watching my dog, she was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. Tucker came home happy and well cared for!

Maximus was well taken care of and loved his time on South Paws Ranch. I was a bet worried about not checking Ranch out before trusting them with Max for no reason! I will use again if in area!

Doggy Day Care • Oct 03, 2022

Alia took care of Ellie while we met friends at Winstar for the day. It was so nice to have a place to leave her while we went and had some fun. This was the perfect set up for us as it was too early to checkin at our hotel and Ellie doesn't like being left alone anyway so Alia and family took care of her. Alia communicated several times with us during the day and her husband was kind enough to meet us part way to pick Ellie up. We will be using them again in the future.

They were very good with our little 5 month old Pug puppy, and it was her first time away from family. She was happy and safe when we picked her up. They are very flexible and understanding.

Pets

A typical day

If your pet has no special requirements or set schedule, then my typical day starts around 6:00AM. At this time I take your pup outside to potty. After, I get their breakfast ready. About 20 minutes after breakfast I take them on a walk to help with their digestion. Depending on your pup’s personality will depend on the activities for the day. There is a cute park which is roughly a 2-minute walk from our location, so if you give permission to take your pup off our property and the weather permits I often end up taking your pup to enjoying the park. If your dog likes to go in stores then we will sometimes go to a store to walk around as well. I want their vacation to be wonderful so they will visit again. Any activities that I know your pet enjoys will be incorporate them into the day. I always bring water and treats anytime we take a walk or leave the property. Again we only do these activities with your permission. Depending on your pups feeding schedule dinner will be provided between 5:00PM-7:00PM. I never give human food or any of our treats to your pup incase if allergies. So I ask you provide whatever special snack they enjoy. If it requires cooking or meal preparation that is no problem. My day usually winds down around 9:00PM-10:00PM. Depending on your pups potty schedule I will make sure their last potty break is at the time they are accustomed too.

I do not watch aggressive animals. This includes aggression towards people, or animals. I do not watch dogs with food aggression. During our meet and Greet we will preform a “temperament test” to verify your dog shows no signs of aggression. If your dog has any aggression issues, depending on the severity level, I am happy to consult with you on dog training and work with your dog during the time you are away from home. Through dog training I will help your dog work this out of their personality so they can be the best version of themselves. I have no breed restrictions. Yes, I will watch or drop-in on Pitt Bull’s, Doberman’s, Chow’s, Rottweiler’s, Husky’s, German Shepard’s, etc. Your dogs breed is not a concern, only their temperament.
