I'm a work from home mama, so I'm able to create flexibility and care where need be. Other than taking and picking up my little one to school, I'll be there to provide care for any of your fur babies needs. If your loved one LOVES car rides too, then let's ride! ***Boarding Check in/out - Please note this is a 24hr stay AT MOST if booked for 1 day. Ex: drop off at 9am and pickup at 9am the following day. Additional fees will apply if you are more than 30 mins late without any notice/heads up unless you pre-booked for more than one day.***

Pet care experience

I grew up with my grandparents who always had a love for community service, outdoor activities and animals! Here I am, a product of their love and I continue to give just that! I'm an avid foster animal parent and recent cat lover (Greta - 10 and Hanz -9 are my first cat babies). I also have experience with elder animals, administrating medication, special dietary needs, allergies and care to pets after surgery.

Lakesha’s service was exceptionally great! No issues or complaints. My fur baby obviously had a good time. We also appreciate Lakesha’s flexibility. Will definitely recommend.

Lakesha was great! She is friendly, kind, and professional. She came each day we requested her and even included photos of our cats. Her timely responses and detailed updates helped also!

Lakesha is always great with Rosie and Rosie loves her! She's always reachable when necessary and very accommodating. I wouldn't choose anyone else in Round Rock to watch Rosie!
