Let us pamper your pets!
Pet care experience
We are animal lovers to the core. We both work full time and have two dogs, Tank and Dallas. Tank is a 5 year old black lab who is a big goofball and loves playing fetch. Dallas is a 3 year old miniature pincher mix that we found on the streets of Dallas. We let our dogs sleep in the bed with us and treat them like we would our children. Tank and Dallas are well socialized and love other dogs - and cats! Our home has all wooden/tile floors (easy clean up!) and a large back yard that is fenced in. Our dogs stay inside during the day in their crates and we have multiple rooms for dogs to stay in if they prefer to be alone. We have a kitten who is about 4 months old and she gets along with dogs and other cats well. Our goal with pet sitting is to create a worry free place for you to leave your pet so that your time away from your home is stress free. We can accommodate any special requests and will cater to your dog’s needs. We love all animals and would be honored to take care of yours! Why I love dog sitting Kelsey: I have had a dog ever since I was 4. I had a border collie / spaniel mix named Pep who was the best companion growing up. Pep passed away when I was 15 and I knew I needed another dog in my life so I got Bella, an Italian Greyhound who I had for 14 years until she passed away from heart problems. My parents have two mini-dachshunds who are like my little brothers and I miss them as much as I miss my parents! I have always been an animal lover and have a huge soft spot for dogs. I would always pet sit around my neighborhood growing up, I genuinely love dogs and their company. About my yard We have a large backyard that is fenced in. It has one tree, but other than that it is grass and a patio. My experience administering medication Bella required a multitude of medications over the years and I had no problems giving them to her. We have sat for dogs with special diets and those needing oral and injected medications and we are very comfortable with adhering to those requirements.
Reviews
When you're headed out on vacation without your dog, you at least want to figure out how to have the peace of mind that your dog is in good hands. Lucy is a rescue dog, so is easily scared at first of new environments. Ryan and Kelsey not only were very responsive all inquiries, but also went out of their way to be patient with Lucy. And it apparently paid off!! Got a few pics on the vacay telling me how Lucy was settling in well, that meant a lot. Would definitely ask Ryan and Kelsey in the future to watch Lucy.
These guys were awesome! It was my first time using Rover & they were super understanding of my anxiousness. They updated us often with photos & were ready to go for both drop off & pick up!
My dog, Leo, is a very shy guy and it takes him awhile to warm up to new people. With Ryan and Kelsey, they made him feel at home and it was the fastest I’ve seen him warm up to anyone! I’m so happy to have selected them and so was Leo.
Ryan and family kept our new kitten, Ralph for five days while we were out. We appreciated the photo updates and the small details to keep Ralph happy and comfortable while we were gone. We’ll use Ryan and Kelsey again in the future!

We have an extra crate for trained dogs to use, or multiple bedrooms where they can hang out solo when we aren’t home if that’s how they prefer it. Our goal is to make sure every pet in our home is happy and healthy!
Home
Information Ryan and Kelsey B. would like to know about your pet
Routines, likes and dislikes, favorite toys, food, and treats are all helpful things for us to know. I know my dog has a handful of behaviors that I let people know (doesn't like to be picked up, gets into trash, etc.) so I'd like to get all that information about your dogs too. Any information helps! No breed preferences, just nothing aggressive or that doesn't get along well with smaller dogs, cats or children. We would consider larger breeds on a case by case basis.
A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks Our neighborhood is gated and about 2 miles if you go up and down all the sidewalks. Any dog who would liked to be walked will be. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Wherever they prefer. If they are bed sleepers, they are more than welcome in our bed. If they have a bed or a crate, there is plenty of room in the bedroom for them. Time I'll spend with your dog We are usually away from the house for about 6 to 8 hours a day and the rest of the time we are home. The dogs would be with us any time we are home.

We will treat your pet like we do ours… they are just like children! We make sure all dogs are fed according to their care instructions and have access to water. We don’t leave them alone for any longer than they have to be.
