About: Experienced dog sitting all size dogs! Pitbulls, waimeraners, labs, wiener dogs etc. I love to go on walks and runs if possible! This past summer I consistently watched 4 dogs (from the same family) and had a great time! I frequently volunteer at the animal shelter but don’t have any pets of my own just yet! New to Fort Worth and looking forward to meeting you and your dog:) As of right now I am helping out at my boyfriends business but working from home- meaning I am available all day to take care of your pet whether at my home or coming to you. I live in a dog friendly apartment building along the trinity trails! These trails are perfect for dog walking and provide ample shade. The dog is welcome in all rooms of our place. At a clients home, I make sure to go over any guidelines with the owner to establish the rules and routines of their space- I only aim to help out never to impose!
“Once again, our experience was awesome! We are so appreciative to have such knowledgeable and caring individuals taking care of Milo. We love the continuing communication and all great pics!”
“We love Ana! She takes such good care of our active dog, and sends pictures daily. Our dog CLEARLY enjoys Ana's house with lots of play, walks, treats, and good fun. Also, Ana is careful to keep up and reinforce training. Excellent dog-sitting!”

I can’t recommend Daniella enough! She was so quick to respond when we needed last minute care for our puppy! She was super welcoming and incredibly kind and patient with our puppy Rocky. She was very flexible and understanding as well! Daniella is our official go to for our pet sitting!! If I could give more stars I would!!
Stella had an amazing stay!! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. Stella immediately made a new best friend, Millie. Loved they were able to play with each other throughout her stay! Rileigh and Jackson clearly adored Stella and made her feel comfortable and safe. They sent updates and photos, and Stella looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I’m very grateful and will absolutely book again!!
We absolutely love LaRae! This is our third time trusting her with Winston, and we truly couldn’t ask for a better sitter. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing he’s with someone who genuinely cares for him and treats him like family. She always keeps us updated, and it’s clear Winston is happy and cared for! We are so grateful to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our sweet boy!
Booked with Danielle and did not regret it. This is the first time we have left our little fur baby with someone since he was born. Danielle took very good care of our boy and treated him lile part of the family. He was taken for walks and had play and cuddle time every day. The communication and daily photos with updates definately put our minds at ease and was instrumental in the two of us actually getting to enjoy a trip away without having to worry. She treated our little guy with the love and attention as if we were there with him and that was priceless. Knowing we can spend time away and our fur baby is loved and cherished while we are gone is everything when you want to try to enjoy your own time away. I can't speak any more highly of the services Danielle gave or the freedom she has given us to enjoy ourselves knowing our little guy is in good hands. Do not sleep on this girl! She embodies the love you would want your little one to be surrounded by. We are so grateful. A must hire!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their River Oaks home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
