“This was my first time using Rover so I didn't know what to expect. Booking was simple with Mary. She is very responsive and flexible. She came by before my travel for a meet and greet with my dog. He liked her and seemed very comfortable. During my trip there was great communication and pictures which showed my dog being very happy to spend time with her. She's a great choice if you're looking for reliability!”

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life, and caring for them is truly a passion rather than just a service I provide. I have extensive hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, as well as birds, goats, chickens, pigs, and some horses. I’m comfortable with daily care routines, administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior, and providing patient, attentive support—especially for senior animals or those needing extra care. I believe animals communicate in their own way, and I take the time to understand their needs, personalities, and comfort levels so they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s energetic playtime, quiet companionship, or farm-style care, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am looking to make this my full time job/ passion. I love animals and believe they are part of our families and deserve to live their best lives while they are with us. I have a 8 foot fenced yard, our dogs are up to date on all vaccines and believe all animals should be. I believe when walking dogs they should always be on a leash, for their safety and the walkers.

About: I've been around animals my whole life and caring for them has always been one of my biggest joys. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities-from playful puppies to calm seniors. I'm patient, gentle, and always pay close attention to each pet's needs and routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or giving extra love and comfort, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and at home. I understand that every animal is unique, so l take the time to get to know their personalities and make their care as stress free and fun as possible. Caring for pets is a natural part of my everyday life! I love starting and ending my days with walks, playtime, and cuddles. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily make time to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. Spending time with animals never feels like work, it's my favorite part of the day! My home is a warm and welcoming place where pets are treated like family. I have a fenced yard that's perfect for playtime and exercise. If your pup enjoys quiet time, I can easily crate them or provide their own cozy space to relax. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, so I do my best to make their stay full of care, cuddles, and happiness-just like they'd experience at home!

About: I can pick up pets if needed and return them! Do not let distance stop your pet from a great experience away from home. I’ve grown up and continue to do so with farm animals, dogs, cats, and small animals. I have five amazing pets. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs. I love taking care of them and they all love people and other animals and especially each other! 2 of my cats are sphynx and my dogs are a very gentle Great Dane and a chunky English bulldog. I am currently available Monday through Sunday at whatever times. I’d love to help out feel free to reach out and we can always work something out! (: I am on 3 acres of fenced-in land. Plenty of space to free roam or trails to go on walks. It’s also a very quiet and small town area. I usually take my dogs out a couple of times a day for a walk & we also enjoy sitting out in our patio!

About: I've been taking care of pups for over 15 yrs now. At first my own pups, but then I would help out friends and family with their pups while they went on vacations and/or traveled for work. My family says I have a kinship with dogs as most dogs naturally get a long with me. Sometimes I can calm the most excitable pup and have them relax in my lap. I work pretty early in the morning. I'm usually home by 10-11 am. I have a pretty good schedule regarding feeding and potty breaks. I tend to take the pups out for walking and play I have a fenced back yard and a dog park near by. I can take your fur babies to the park or on walks regularly. I currently have 2 pups myself, they are well trained and have a pretty steady routine (food and potty breaks). They get along well with other dogs, no biting or aggression. They do set boundaries though. NO humping.

About: Greetings! My name is Kay. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, and even as a child, I knew I wanted to have a career based on that love. I grew up on Animal Planet, and spent my time studying everything about animals, from Herpetology, the study of reptiles and amphibians, to Cynology, the study of Canines. I’ve cared for pets for my entire life, and there was never a time when my home wasn’t filled with the sounds of birds chirping, Guinea Pigs squeaking, cats meowing, or dogs barking. From 0-8 legs, I’ve had them all, including mice, hamsters, various lizards and snakes, frogs, fish, turtles, and even insects. Out of everything that I have loved, no relationships have brought me greater joy than the ones I have fostered with my dogs, and so I have devoted my life to the care and study of the Canine, including aspects such as general health, nutrition, disease and illness, behavior, and obedience. As a professional Dog Trainer, I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of dogs, as well as people. I regularly train puppies, pure and mixed breed dogs, and seniors, and I have assisted people with house-training, training a deaf dog, dealing with behavior issues, trauma, and medical diagnoses. I have experience with hunting dogs, Guard/Patrol dogs, ESA’s, large and small breeds, and all ages, and I am looking forward to getting to know your dog too. My schedule varies depending on the needs of my clients, and I travel from Little Elm to McKinney to Trenton on a regular basis for training sessions, drop ins, or walks. Exercise is a big part of my daily routine, and I'm more than happy to bring your dog along for the run. There are many things that dogs need in order to be not only happy, but healthy as well. I believe proper animal husbandry requires a foundation of knowledge on aspects such as Animal Behavior, diet and nutrition, health, exercise, and general wellness. When I take care of a pet, I am taking care of more than just food and water. I regularly check my own dogs for parasites, both external and internal, perform basic procedures such as ear cleaning, tooth brushing, nail trimming, and scan them for medical issues. When I visit your house, I will keep my eyes open for parasites, injuries, behavioral issues, and potential environmental hazards, while feeding, watering, exercising, and playing with your dog. I think exercise and play time are huge factors in a dog's quality of life, and I will make it my mission to ensure that your dog gets plenty of both. As a professional Dog Trainer, I also believe a happy dog is a well trained dog, and I would be happy to offer any necessary training assistance or tips while I’m there!

About: I have a strong passion for taking care of pets and I will care for yours as my own. From birth I have been around dogs and cats, I grew up learning how to take care of them. I have had experience taking care of livestock chickens, pigs, goats, cows, horses. I believe animals are the only pure thing we have left in this world. They deserve the most love and attention we can give! I genuinely care about you and your pets needs! I am very flexible and communicative! I work for myself, I have the ability to work whatever hours I choose with my job so that I have the time with the dogs! I like to keep your pets on their typical schedule that they’re used to with you. I can understand without you they can get anxious, I make sure to give them extra pets for reassurance.

“Fabulous!!! Communicative :)”
