“Omg best furkid sitter ever!! It's always nerve racking when you move and have to find someone you trust with your furkids and we couldn't be happier we found Wendy. She is sweet and caring. She was so good with the girls. The neighbors saw her and thought she was a family friend walking with the girls the way she treated them and was with them. She is extremely clean and considerate. She kept us updated with photos and messages. Cannot say enough good things about her!”

When we came back from our 4 day vacation lily was happy and healthy and our home was in great shape. Louann was very responsive the whole time and you could tell she really loves animals. We will definitely use Louann again!! Thank you Louann!!”
“Connor does a great job! Housesitting and dog care were his responsibilities for us. It is obvious he really enjoys fur babies. It does not appear to be just an avenue to make money for him.

About: I was born and raised on my family’s ranch so I’ve handled various types of animals over the years. I’m well experienced with cats and dogs especially! During high school I was an intern at a vet clinic and from there I went into dog grooming, which I currently do! I am currently a full time dog groomer at a small boutique, so I have a decently set schedule and typically work 9-5 most days. Currently, I only offer my services for at home and pet sitting, so I will travel to your residence and stay overnight or just drop by to take care of your fur baby.
“Pam is absolutely incredible. She is very kind, easy to communicate with, and sends frequent updates with pictures and videos. She took very great care of our dog and we returned home to a happy puppy and a clean home. Would highly recommend!”
“Catherine did a fantastic job staying with our boy while we were out of town. She communicated with me throughout our trip letting me know things were good. We would definitely book Catherine again.”
“Maria was so great! We were nervous leaving our dogs for a week especially as one has severe anxiety/fears, but Maria made them both so comfortable! She also kept the house clean and orderly. Her communication while we were away was perfect and we received lots of cute pics of our pups! Will definitely trust Maria the next time we go out of town!”
About: My family has never owned a dog but I am around dogs all the time. I am a college student, and my girlfriend’s roommates have 2 emotional support dogs and I’m around them all the time during the semester. Currently, I am living with my grandmother for the summer who owns an 11 year old dog. My girlfriend also has two dogs at her home and I am there multiple times a week. Next door is my aunt and uncle who owns a 6 year old dog. Being around all of these dogs I have learned more about the care that dogs need. I am truly a dog lover at heart and I feel that I am a great fit for anyone who needs a dog sitter. Occasionally, I will feed my family’s and friends dogs if needed, and take them out to potty. I ensure that every dog gets what they need so that they can be their full selves I am a reliable, gentle person who provides the care and necessities that the dog needs. I am able to deal with big and crazy dogs if needed. I am also able to put the dogs in a crate if needed to

“Amy does a fantastic job caring for both our babies. We’ve had her watch my bully breed dog and our kitten a couple of times now with no issues so we can enjoy our trips without worry. Would recommend for anyone who wants to ensure their pets are not only safe, but loved.”
“Natalie was fantastic! I was so appreciative that she handled taking care of my dog during fireworks, which can be very stressful for her. She handled Emmy very well and sent pictures which I super appreciated! Would highly recommend!”

About: My fiancé and I were born pup lovers! We currently have one dog with plans to get more in the future. We would love to offer you some peace of mind by taking care of your beloved furry friends with our five star service. I work from home which gives me the capacity to cater to your dogs in between meetings and emails. I’m also at home most weekends and holidays so we can always make it work! I have a large fenced backyard which is a doggie paradise. I have one medium dog that is super friendly and always looking to make new furry friends. I can also crate your dog up if needed.
About: My wife and I have a standard poodle and love dogs! I am always going on walks and am very good at playing in the yard or inside! I get off work everyday at 3:30pm and am looking to walk and or pet sit in the evenings. I am free most if not all weekends. I am a responsible pet caretaker. I walk them daily, take them to the park, and make sure they go potty before it is time for bed. My cousin is a Veterinarian right here in Dallas, so I have a good connection if anything happens to your pet while in my care.
“We were very happy with Joleen’s care of our cat and house while we were away. She took such great care of Kit Kit who is not the most social or friendliest cat around, otherwise known as a PIA. We received picture updates and were so surprised how she had the cat eating out of her hand in no time. The house was immaculate when we returned… we couldn’t ask for anything more. You will never want to use anybody else!”
“Christina was absolutely amazing. After traveling for hours, I arrived home to a happy dog and a clean house. I was able to take a shower and go straight to bed. She’s a great pet sitter who gives me peace of mind when I’m away from my fur baby,”
