Pet Sitting in Shady Shores

“Ms LeighAnn is the best! When we get stuck away from home, she manages to find a way to fit in a last minute drop in and save the day. It's like it's not just because it's her job- she just loves our dogs so much that if they need her, she'll be there. Thanks for saving the day again!!”

“Madi is so sweet. My boxer loved her. I loved that she wanted to come over and meet her first before committing. She kept me updated on when she arrived at the house and sent pictures. I truly hope to be able to have her pet sit for my boxer again!”

“I'm first time hiring a sitter for my cat who is with me for 4.5 years. I took my 6 months dog with me to Cancun as I was worrying so much that someone can't take care well of my babies when together as they can be a problem as a team home alone. From the moment I met Jessica during meet and great, I felt at ease knowing my cat was in great hands. Jessica took the time to get to know my cat, and spent time playing with him during her visits. And watered my plants 🪴 ☺️ Throughout the stay, Jessica provided regular updates and adorable photos, which really eased my mind while I was away. She was attentive to Dandy's needs, ensuring he were fed, litter box was clean, and that Dandy received plenty of love and play. It was clear that Jessica has a genuine passion for animals. When I returned home, Dandy was happy and relaxed, looking like he had a vocation as well!! He is a whole new cat now, less grumpy more playful and looks so happy. I will definitely be booking Jessica again in the future, and will be happy if she will take care of my precious pup as well. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my kitty! 💕”

About: I have cared for animals of all sizes from show animals for FFA to caring for reptiles of all kinds. I have been a animal lover since childhood growing up with large dog breed like English mastiffs and various animals like cats, bearded dragons, and rabbits! I’m currently preparing for college and my schedule is wide open to do check-ins or even sit with your animals for extended periods of time. I offer all services to fit your animals needs such as check-ins, walks, and even overnight stays if needed for your animals. I am mindful of all instructions especially when it comes to animals on a special diet, and I am experienced in giving medications.

About: Lots of years of caring for my own pets, friends and family members. My kids love dogs and would enjoy playing with and giving attention to your dog. Since I work from home I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate the needs of your pet. I’m available for that afternoon walk or bathroom break that others might not be. I have a fenced in backyard with turf, so your dog won’t get muddy. I have three kids who will give your pet tons of attention.

“Katherine is awesome. Great communication. Goes above and beyond. Sunny loves her.”

Angel G.

“Kathleen was always on time, took many photos and gave me a report after each drop in visit. I will be using her again for sure!”

“Amanda took great care of our pups on short notice. We had no reservations about her coming to the house and taking care of our pups. Highly recommend :)”

Marissa H.

“Shiru was very detail oriented and maintained the cleanliness of my home, while loving on my kitties the way they deserve. She went above and beyond to clean the litter boxes, and was very communicative. You can tell she cares about the well-being of the cats. I would recommend her 100%!!!”

About: I grew up with dogs since I was seven years old. I’ve never not had a dog in my house. My first dog was when my grandmother surprised me on Valentine’s Day a little black poodle and I called her Sissy. I had her since I graduated in high school and she passed away. I was devastated because she was my childhood dog. I will never forget her. Now, I have a spunky blue heeler mix named Zendaya who is one years old. I like playing, walking, petting and being next to my dog. Plus, my two sons adore her. I have a hybrid schedule. M, W, F, I work from home. I take a 30 minute to an hour lunch break. I can make sure your pet has enough food and water. On Tues & Thurs, I’m in the office. After work, M-F, I have more time to walk the dog, make sure their water and food bowls are filled. I can play with your dog if he or she needs attention. On the weekends, my schedule varies. My kids have a soccer or football game. My husband and I play ultimate frisbee, go to church, spend time with our family or friends. I always take my dog out in the morning before work. I feed her twice a day. When I work from home, on my lunch breaks, I like to go on walks with my dog. When she needs something, she’ll come to me and give me a look or bark at me and I let her outside in my back yard. When I’m in the office twice a week, I let my dog out and keep her in her crate until my husband gets home from work. If he’s gone all day and not back earlier in the day, my mother-in-law will stop by to let her out. We don’t have a dog door, but I keep the back door open if the weather is nice. My family and I like to go to the dog park and let our dog play with other dogs or we take her on hikes.

About: With over 24 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes—from tiny lap pups to giant breeds—and a variety of cat personalities. I’m especially familiar with breeds like German Shepherds, bully breeds, Huskies, Golden Retrievers, herding dogs, and mixed breeds. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I’m confident with senior pets and those with special needs. At home, I live with two dogs (30 and 120 pounds) and two American Shorthair cats, so I truly understand the day-to-day needs of pets. I love animals for their companionship and quirks, and I’m always learning about animal behavior to better connect with each pet I meet. Friends jokingly call me the "dog whisperer"—I just call it passion and patience! Pet care fits naturally into my routine year-round. I work in education, so during the summer months I’m off and have plenty of flexibility. I easily fit pet care between my tutoring schedule, allowing me to take on walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. During the school year, I’m available in the evenings and on weekends for drop-ins, and I can still accommodate house sitting with advanced notice and planning. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy making time for. When I house sit, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their routine as closely as possible. I ask for detailed information, including preferred potty spots, known commands, feeding schedules, and any behavioral quirks that may affect their day-to-day care. I keep pet parents updated with regular photos and videos and maintain open communication at all times to ensure peace of mind. My goal is to provide the same love, structure, and attention pets receive when their family is home.

About: New pet owners! You get $20 off your first booking with Rover! https://www.rover.com/sit/emilyf63054 I’ve owned dogs and cats my entire life and love caring for them. I also take care of friend's animals when they go out of town. I'm usually the go to for that. I also foster kittens for the Denton County Animal Shelter I currently work in Denton from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm and I'm available on my lunch break to make home visits. I'm also available all day on the weekends and during the week for house sitting. I'm not currently taking any pets into my home because I have cats (not sure how another dog will do with them) and my dogs are elderly. I may consider one small dog or puppy for a weekend.
