About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to making every pet feel like they’re part of the family. I have experience working with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need extra patience and training, to senior dogs who require a little more care and comfort. I’m also comfortable handling minor medical needs, such as administering medication or managing specific care routines. I understand that every dog is unique, and I tailor my care to suit their personality, energy levels, and needs. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or ensuring they stick to their schedule, I’ll provide the love and attention they deserve. I go to college full time and my schedule varies throughout the week but I have lots of free time in between and after classes in order to give your pets the attention they need. Weather it is snuggles, play or care my priority is meeting your pets needs. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I follow any specific instructions you provide, from feeding schedules to exercise routines, to make sure your pets stay happy and healthy. In addition to caring for your pets, I also keep you updated on the state of your home. I’ll let you know if I bring in packages, notice anything unusual, or address potential concerns, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to provide exceptional care for your pets and your home!

About: I have fostered 3 dogs, hosted a Sniff Spot in my 1.5 acre backyard (a private dog park rentable by the hour) and successfully trained the one dog I raised. Throughout my experience with dogs I have done a lot of research (read books watched videos and took a class) on how to train and read dogs’ body language. I am a gig worker so I have a lot of free time during the week. Therefore, I’m able to spend quality time with your pup to offer the care and attention they deserve. With a wide open yard, a pond and critters to chase your dog won’t get bored here! I have a fenced in 1.5 acre backyard with a seasonal pond. I like to crate pups inside the house when I’m not present. Regular feeding and potty breaks with some mental stimulation mixed in. And of course lots of pets and belly scratches!

About: I’m a relatively new dog sitter with a years worth of prior experience in canine care between ownership and sitting. I have experience in general pet management with juvenile pets and administration of medication. I’m an extremely active individual and can surely keep up with any energetic demands of your fur baby and am eager for the opportunity to assist my fellow pet parents with an extra set of hands! I’m currently employed part time between two employers, however both establishments allow for extreme flexibility and so long as I have a decent times notice to organize my schedule for commitments it will fit seamlessly. I have 4 cats that I care for; I allot play time for mental stimulation and ensure a safe environment for my kitties by keeping a close eye on what’s accessible to them and being extremely hygienic and detail oriented. I frequently deep clean toys, water and food bowls, and litter boxes.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born. I’ve taken care of all sizes, breeds, and ages as well as dogs and cats with special needs or senior care. I volunteer/foster dogs from Pooch Savers, a non profit organization that provides care for neglected dogs and matches them with the best home. I am currently a Biology major at UNT and completing my undergraduate program. During the summer, I am home full time and readily available for service requests. I wake up around 7:30 to take care of my own dog, pumpkin, a chihuahua/jack russell mix. He is very disciplined and we stay on a regular schedule. For care in my own home, I have room to take care of your pet! While I do not have a fenced yard, my apartment is on the first floor with a back door that has access to grass. Since I am home full time during the summer, I am able to keep a watchful eye if your dog needs potty breaks as well as to make sure they don’t get into anything they aren’t supposed to. I have toys, dog beds, treats, and even a small crate if needed. For care in a clients home, I will make sure the house is just as clean as it was when you left. Whether you give me strict instructions or leave it up to me, I will take good care of your home and more importantly your pet.

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I have also sat pets for many years for my friends and neighbors. I volunteer at animal rescues so I am very familiar with rescue animals and accommodations they may need. I love any and all animals. I recently started working with cats at my rescue and am willing to learn more about them. I am recently home from college for the summer. I have a full-time seasonal job so pet care fits into my routine during evenings and overnight, Sunday and Monday (I do not work those days). Evenings/overnight, Sunday, and Monday I can do walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. When caring for pets in a clients home, I follow their normal routine as consistently as possible. I make sure they have water, food on time, bathroom breaks, playtime/exercise, and lots of love. For walks I pay attention to how the dog behaves and set my pace, energy, and length of walk to best fit them. For drop-ins and house sitting I make sure the pet gets playtime, basic care, and companionship based on their routine. I have experience with everyday pet care and have also bathed dogs I have cared for when needed. I aim to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owner is away.

About: Dogs have been a constant in my life for as long as I can remember, from the family pets I grew up with, to raising kids who always had four-legged companions by their side. Now that my nest is empty, my love for animals hasn't gone anywhere. If anything, it's only grown. My Lab, Buck, is proof of that - I can't imagine a single day without him. I know firsthand how much pets mean to a family. They're not "just dogs" ... they're members of the household, and they deserve to be treated that way. When you trust me with your pet, you're handing them off to someone who genuinely lights up around animals, has decades of real-life experience caring for them, and has the time and flexibility to give them undivided attention every single day. As a work-from-home empty nester, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the attention and companionship they deserve throughout the entire day. I'm not rushing out the door in the morning or counting down the hours until I get home — I'm here, present, and available. Whether it's a midday walk, a play session, or just some good old-fashioned company on the couch, your pet won't be left waiting or wondering where everyone went. I prefer to come to your home so your pet stays in the environment they know and love — same smells, same routine, same comfort. I believe pets are happiest when their world isn't disrupted, and that peace of mind extends to you as the owner too. That said, if you ever need in-home care at my place, your fur baby will have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to stretch their legs and burn some energy. Given the Texas heat, we keep things smart... outdoor time during the cooler parts of the day, and plenty of indoor fun with toys to keep them active, stimulated, and happy the rest of the time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Dog Sitter! If you're looking for a top-notch dog sitter, look no further than Pierce. He is reliable, caring, and attentive. My dog absolutely adores him and my cat didn’t completely hate him (which is actually a great compliment 😆)! It's clear that Pierce has a genuine love for animals and it's such a relief to know that my pet is being looked after by someone so trustworthy and dedicated. Highly recommended!

About: As a full-time remote worker, I’m home all day to provide dedicated, around-the-clock care for your furry family member. From frequent potty breaks to personalized attention, your pup’s needs are always my priority. My fully fenced backyard is both small-dog proof and big-dog friendly, giving your pet a safe, secure space to play and explore. Whether they love sunbathing, sniffing around, or doing zoomies, they’ll feel right at home here. I share my home with my easygoing Mini Aussie, who’s gentle and friendly with other dogs. If you prefer a solo environment for your pup, I’m happy to separate them as needed. I’m all about being flexible and making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and relaxed. I also welcome seniors and puppies with open arms. I can accommodate special diets or soft food needs—just let me know! For young pups, I’ve got a secure gated play area for naps, playtime, and safe exploration. You’ll receive regular photo updates throughout the day, so you can stay connected and reassured that your dog is in great hands. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be cared for like family. 🐶💛 Pet care is seamlessly woven into my daily routine since I work from home, allowing me to provide consistent attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and engaging environment with regular potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles, always tailored to your pet’s specific needs and routine.

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to be flexible, attentive, and available throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide consistent care, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company. I’m available anytime and can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs, including early mornings, midday visits, evenings, or last-minute requests. Your pets will be treated like part of my daily life, getting plenty of attention, love, and reliable care while you’re away. I provide attentive, personalized care for each pet in the comfort of their home, adjusting my routine based on the service that you book. For drop in visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter cleaning, and spend quality time with your pet- whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company. For dogs walking, I ensure safe, engaging walks tailored to your dogs energy level, followed by water and a quick check in before I leave. For pet sitting or extended stays, I maintain your pets normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, exercise, medication(if needed), and lots of attention and affection. I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I love all of the pets!! My Husband and I have three cats and one small dog at our house and a fenced in backyard. My best friend is a vet so she gives me all the advice and tips on dogs and cats! I can cater to anything you prefer, if you have very high maintenance or chill pets. My dog gets along with other dogs but we can seperate her to a different part of the house with a dog gate if needed! Drop by care is fine or if you’re going on a trip, we would love to have your pup stay with us. They are in greaf hands, lots of backyard play and will be very spoiled! Can’t wait to meet your little guys!! Im home a lot so I have much time to care for the animals here! We have a big back yard and I love going outside with them for exercise! Whatever your care preferences are, we try to accommodate to that! Just communicate with me what your expectations are, we want your dog to have consistency.
