Pet Sitting Retreat At Firewheel

“Min was wonderful and gave us peace of mind while we were away from our kitties! She was very communicative and provided us with pictures, videos, and updates on food/medicine/water/litter. The cats seemed to love her, and we will absolutely reach out again in the future 😊”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I understand that each pet has its own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to following each owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping a pet company, I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I start classes at UTD on August 24, but I’ll still have time to provide dependable care before and after classes, as well as on many weekends. I also attend church on Thursdays and Sundays, so I plan my schedule around those commitments. I keep my availability updated and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications (if needed), and any special care requests. I take time to help pets feel comfortable and make sure they always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay aware of our surroundings. In a client’s home, I treat both the home and pets with respect, keep everything clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

“Ellie took such good care of our kitties, like they were her own! Made me feel at ease while we were out of town. Definitely would use her again ?”

“I wanted to share my experience with Rover, particularly with Nicole, as this was my first time using the platform. I was initially apprehensive and nervous about entrusting my pets and home to someone new. However, after coming across Nicole’s profile, I decided to reach out to her. She had excellent reviews and many returning clients, which put me at ease. Nicole was kind enough to meet with me before I officially hired her. She was very warm, and my pets instantly seemed to connect with her. Confident in her care, I went ahead and booked her services, and I am so glad I did. Throughout our trip, Nicole’s visits and check-ins were thorough and reassuring. She truly went above and beyond any expectations I had. Thanks to her dedication and attention, I felt completely at ease being away from home. I will definitely be one of her recurring clients as long as she is available. If you’re considering a sitter on Rover, I highly recommend booking Nicole – she truly is amazing!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for most of my life since I was a teen. I myself was the proud owner of a miniature schnauzer for over 16 years, so I understand the desire to take excellent care of your pet, ensuring they are fed, walked, and most of all, loved! I would take care of your pet like they were my own. I'm currently searching for a full-time position for work, so I'm able to be more flexible during the week than what is typical when I'm working full-time in an office setting. That being said, I am flexible to take care of your pet during the work day or in the evenings for the time being! I am a calm and easygoing individual who would be able to follow instructions you leave for me in order to provide the same structure and routine for your pet that they typically have with you at home.

About: My family and I have always cared for animals. I’ve raised cats, dogs, and bunnies who all lived in home. I’ve fostered shelter dogs and found homes for them. I’ve trained puppies on simple commands and leash walking. I have very open and flexible availability. Monday: Open availability Tuesday: Open availability Wednesday: Available before 12pm Thursday: Available after 6pm Friday: Available after 6pm Saturday: Available before 12pm I am an early bird and I also end my day late. I communicate exceptionally well with many photos. I plan on doing more in home visits/ walks for pets instead of in my home. Special cases I can watch in my home, I have a cozy house with a large yard in the suburbs near schools with a lot of parks and trails. I have my own vehicle and am happy to drive.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and have been an on and off pet sitter since I was a teen! I have experience caring for both baby and senior animals through my own pets I've owned, although most of my pet sitting experience is with adult/young adult cats and dogs that required no special care. These days I am exclusively a cat owner and most frequently find myself cat sitting, but I'm still willing and capable of dog sitting! I'm quite passionate about my love for animals, I've been a vegetarian for over a decade and frequently find myself feeding strays and taking them to no kill shelters. I've even had the pleasure of reuniting a few lost cats with their owners! I love every animal entrusted into my care as if they were my own, I'd be delighted to spend time with your critters! At the time of writing this I currently work a part time job, my shifts are typically 4-5 hours long, accounting for commute time on days that I work I may be away for 6 hours. If your pet requires more attentive care I may not be the right fit for you! So long as I'm left with any specific care instructions (find toys here, feed at these times, walk x amount of times a day, crate at night, etc) I will care for your pet just the same as you would! Whether I'm staying in your home or just dropping by a couple of times a day, I always respect and maintain the space I'm a guest in.

About: Growing up my mom loved fostering dogs. I have taken care of puppies, large dogs, and senior dogs. I love learning about each dogs personality and growing with them. Currently looking for work with a degree in computer engineering. In the meantime I’d like to take care of animals. I am available mornings, nights, and overnight. I’d prefer going to clients homes and following their directions to take care of the pet. I enjoy going on walks and playing with toys.

“So thankful for Jane for loving on our kitties while we were away for the Thanksgiving holiday! She was awesome with communicating about times, sending pictures of our babies, and giving them some quality playtime.”

About: I've been around all kinds of animals since I was a kid. I grew up with dogs, cats, horses, birds, hamsters, rabbits and even ducks. Besides the family pets, I had my own dog since he was 4 months and passed at 13 years, my own cat who was the feral barn cat turned domesticated & living with me until she passed at about 14 years and my own horse I had since I was 10 until he passed at almost 39 years old. I have been around all kinds of breeds and ages of dogs, all sizes, and even volunteered at a wolf sanctuary when I lived in NH. Animals are my love and passion. I work from home so I can be available anytime and be home with your fur babies all day. My schedule is flexible so I am readily available anytime. I know each pet is uniquely individual and you know your fur babies best. I follow all instructions explicitly as you set them and give daily updates with pictures. I know how hard it is leaving your pets home while you travel.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals. My family has two pets, and I’ve helped care for my friends’ and family’s pets whenever they travel or have busy schedules. I enjoy walking, feeding, playing with, and making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. I’ll care for your pet like they’re part of my own family. I'm teacher para for elementary school at 7am to 3:10pm through Monday to Friday. Ill free after that. I'm college student online at ACC at Austin My family has two pets at home. I sometimes help take care of my friends' and family's pets when they're out of town, busy, away for a long time, or in other situations where they need help.

“Kimberly is an absolute blessing. Our cat is very social and needs more human interaction than most, so traveling is a bit stressful. The daily photos Kimberly sent were so great - it was clear Mr Miyagi was in the best of hands. We came home to a happy cat! She cares for and loves your pet as her own and will unquestionably be our go to pet sitter 😊”

About: I have taken care of animals all my life , from the age of 4 I’ve had cats and dogs around me in and outside of the houses we have been. Currently I have 3 cats and we have had them since 2015 . I love animals and it’s a way for me to have some time off from this busy life. I’m usually free after 4 pm , I work part time and play soccer for a semi professional team . I am flexible and like to make times work for clients. Very clean and organized , not chaotic just me and my parents . I usually only house cats unless it’s worth it for me, as I’m more cat

“Christine was an absolute pleasure to work with! She went above and beyond in taking care of my pup. Communication was fantastic, and she even brought along one of my dog's favorite tennis balls for a fun-filled trip to the dog park. The photos she sent showed just how much fun they were having. Christine even took the initiative to bring in a package for me without being asked. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be calling on her again. Five stars all the way!”
