I work remotely and I love spending my days with my clients’ pups, and am always happy to adhere to your pet’s normal schedule. Keeping your furry babes in their routine reduces stress for them while you’re away and makes your return an easy transition.

About Clare P.

Safety, trust & environment
I am a cuddle puddle enthusiast! Your pets will be cared for in the comfort of their own home. I work with clients to determine the schedule and needs for each pet to keep everyone happy and comfortable. Please be aware that a meet and greet prior to any service is required if you have not booked with me before, for the sake of their safety and mine. This is to avoid potential fearful behavior from your furry babes upon meeting a stranger without mom/dad/favorite human around. A quick 15 minute meeting with you and your pet is all it takes!
Information Clare P. would like to know about your pet
It is always important to know ANY triggers ahead of time. Even if it is something that you and your family are able to work around in your daily lives, it’s important to communicate them for the sake of your pet. Alternately, what comforts your pet and provides a sense of safety when they are feeling uncertain?
A typical day
As a pet sitter, I love keeping dogs active and entertained. I often play fetch in the backyard or at a nearby park. For more energetic pups, I set up mini obstacle courses with household items, which they navigate using their agility and foraging instincts. Walks and hikes are a staple, and I enjoy exploring new trails and parks with them. If the weather is nice and the dog enjoys swimming, I find a safe spot for them to splash around, which is always a blast. To stimulate their natural hunting instincts, I create little treasure hunts by hiding treats around the house. It's fascinating to watch them sniff out their rewards, and of course, I make sure to give them plenty of cuddles and gentle pets if they enjoy that. My goal is to provide a fun, safe, and enriching experience. I tailor my activities to each pet's personality and needs, always keeping a close eye on them to ensure they're happy and comfortable. It's more than just a job for me - it's a chance to bond with these amazing animals and make their day a little brighter!

Pet care experience
I’ve recently relocated from Austin back home to the DFW, and I’m looking forward to meeting new clients! Pets have been part of my life since I was a child. For the last eight years I have served as a pet sitter and house-sitter, caring for all types of animals including special needs and senior pets. I have experience with all dog breeds from miniature Dachshunds to Bouvier des Flanders and German Shepherds.
Reviews

Clare was terrific as always. I never worry when she’s caring for my boy.

Clare is 1000% the best sitter we’ve had for our dog Clyde! She always is timely, thorough in her reports, and just so so kind and friendly. We really trust when our dog is in Clare’s care that he is in great hands. We appreciate Clare so so very much!

Clare is very attentive and sends daily updates/photos. She will care for your home and pet with loving care. We couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter! Thank you so much


Clare did a fabulous job house and pet sitting for a full week. Our dogs bonded with her right away and she took care of every detail perfectly. She is highly trustworthy and very grounded. We never had a single worry the entire time we were away and returned to find everything perfectly in order. Clare will be our go-to Rover resource and we highly recommend her to you as well.
