McKensi was fantastic with our cats while we were aware! We had to book last minute after someone else cancelled, and we are so glad we picked her! The updates she provided were wonderful & she was early each visit! We will absolutely book her for our next trip.

Mariah is great. I needed last minute care and she was able to help. I met her and her family for a meet and greet and they were so good with my babies. I will definitely have her in mind for future care :).

About: I have loved and handled pets/animals of all kind since I was a toddler with no fear in sight. Outside of my own pets, most of my family and friends have always had some sort of pet that I have watched or taken care of- dogs, cats, snakes, fish, turtles, ferrets, lizards, some of everything. My grandfather also had a farm with horses, chickens and cattle that my brother and I helped him take care of. I am a substitute teacher, so I don’t work everyday. This also means that I have the summer and holidays off so my flexibility is very high. If I am in someone else’s home caring for their pet, I follow all rules set by the owner for both the pet I’m watching and myself. If I am watching a pet at my home, I make sure everything is very neat and clean so there are no health hazards and they can’t get into things they shouldn’t.

About: I am currently a research veterinary technician and am in school to become a veterinarian. I have two dogs, a cat, and a bunch of fish at the moment. I've owned many other types of animals and many dogs in my life ranging in size, age, temperament, and breed. I want to add this to my resume and make some extra money on the side. I also just really love seeing everyone's furbabies and helping out where I can ;) I work full-time Monday-Friday but can be available after 4/5PM those days. Weekends are the most ideal to work with! I am in school part-time but will be taking the summer off. I will only be offering walking and sitting for pets in the client's home/other, not my personal home. Depending on the pet, I like going to parks, trails, and or whatever the client needs. Play time is also a must!

About: Dog Headline Ideas (35 characters or less) * 🐶 Your Dog’s New Best Friend * 🐶 Tail Wags Guaranteed * 🐶 Walks, Play & Lots of Love * 🐶 Trusted Care for Happy Dogs * 🐶 Pawsitively Great Dog Care * 🐶 Reliable Care, Happy Pups * 🐶 Where Dogs Feel at Home * 🐶 Belly Rubs Included * 🐶 Loving Care for Every Pup * 🐶 Playtime, Walks & Cuddles My top picks: * Your Dog’s New Best Friend * Tail Wags Guaranteed * Where Dogs Feel at Home Dog Care Experience I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing regular exercise, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention and affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with companionship, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to provide a loving environment where dogs can thrive, whether they are staying in their own home or in mine. If you want something that helps you stand out, you could add: As a teacher, patience, consistency, and attentiveness come naturally to me. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves individualized care, clear communication, and lots of positive attention. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine right now because I am on summer break from teaching and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day rather than only being available during limited hours. Whether your pet needs regular walks, frequent potty breaks, medication reminders, or simply extra company, I have the time and flexibility to make their care a priority and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and affection. Because my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is closely supervised and dogs are kept on a leash for walks, potty breaks, and outdoor activities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and house rules to help pets feel secure and comfortable. I maintain clear communication with owners and treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own.

About: I love all kinds of dogs and their playfull nature!I normally walk for 30 minutes or more on a regular so if your dog needs a nice walk in definitely built for it! I have access to someone that has experience dog grooming so if your dog needs a good wash I can provide that as well. I'm pretty open to request so if you need something all you have to do is ask and we can work something out. If your dog likes attention I have kids that love dogs that will help wear out any high energy dogs and I don't mind going to some open fields and having the open run around till their hearts content. I would love to create some regular customers but if you only want to try me out I'm more then ok with that!

About: I love all the dogs! My grandkids are all grown up so now I have plenty of time to give your fur babies all of the snuggles and pets they want! I'm experienced with senior care and the giving of meds. I have a nice size fenced in yard and a ramp for easy access. I have a room specifically for dog guests with plenty of blankets, pillows and toys although they are always welcome to my lap, furniture and bed! There's nothing better than dog slumber parties at Nana's Hause! I work during the week but I'm available in the afternoons for drop in visits and walks. I'm available on the weekends for boarding, drop in visits and walks. I have a fenced in yard and ramp for seniors, special needs and puppies. I offer guests their own room, if they prefer, with a crate, plenty of blankets, pillows and toys. Guests are always welcome to roam the home freely, allowed on the furniture, my lap and in the bed.

Morgan was awesome in taking care of our furbabies! Our dog Daeny is afraid of everything and Morgan had her playing so soon after meeting her. Morgan was prompt in responding and checked in on our little zoo three times each day. We got great pics while on vacation, so we knew they were being well taken care of. Thank you, Morgan!!

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life — I grew up caring for pets alongside family and have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs at once. I pride myself on being reliable and consistent, especially when it comes to feeding schedules and following each pet owner's specific instructions to the letter. Every pet has their own routine and personality, and I make it a priority to honor that. What truly sets me apart is that I treat every pet like my own. I'm attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals — it's not just a job for me, it's something I care deeply about. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I'm currently taking online classes over the summer, which means I'm home almost all of the time — so pets in my care are never left alone for long. My schedule is flexible and low-key, which means I can give dogs the attention, playtime, and consistency they deserve throughout the entire day. On the rare occasion I do step out, it's briefly for family activities or to take the dogs on a walk. Otherwise, I'm home and fully present. I also occasionally help care for young children, so I'm used to being responsible, patient, and attentive to those who depend on me — pets included The safety and comfort of every pet I care for is my top priority. My home is set up perfectly for dogs — we have a fully fenced-in yard, so pups can run, play, and enjoy the outdoors safely without any worry. During their stay, dogs are kept close to me in my room for the majority of the time, so they always have company and I can keep a close eye on them. We do have two resident dogs in the home, but they are both friendly and well socialized — they've welcomed visiting dogs before without any issues, making the transition smooth and stress free for everyone. I always make sure to do a slow, supervised introduction between dogs to ensure everyone is comfortable before giving them free time together. Every pet's boundaries are respected and their safety comes first.

My Wife says I love the dog more than her, and any good husband knows not to argue with their wife so that said, our Dog is the most precious thing and I’m always anxious to leave her, not to worry though, Penny loveed AnTuan from the first couple of minutes and it made my few days away from her very stress free. Came back home to happy, stress free dog. Top, top service and helped us at short notice too. Couldn’t recommend him more !!

About: As a stay-at-home mom and lifelong animal lover, caring for pets has always been second nature to me. With six pets of my own — including dogs, cats, and a bunny — I create a home environment built on love, consistency, and attentive care. Your pet stays in a spacious 1,700 sq ft home on a 0.17-acre property designed for comfort, enrichment, and room to roam. This upscale in-home experience offers expansive indoor living areas, supervised outdoor time, and a calm multi-pet household that supports healthy socialization. With this being my focus, I am home throughout the day, providing consistent supervision, structured play, and personalized attention — not just scheduled check-ins. In addition to boarding, I offer bathing and additional supportive services to ensure your baby returns home happy, clean, and exceptionally cared for. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day, allowing for hands-on, consistent care for every pet. Each day is structured around comfort, enrichment, and individualized attention. My daughter is in a few extracurricular activities, but they only take around three hours in the evenings 4-7pm so I have plenty of time to care for your babies. Typically while my daughter is at cheer, gymnastics/tumbling and girlscouts I take that time to walk the dogs as it’s later in the day and cooler. I provide full-time, hands-on care in a calm, social household where all pets are well-socialized with children, dogs, and cats, helping visiting animals feel safe, comfortable, and engaged. Your pet can expect a full day of attentive care, including structured feeding, fresh water, indoor enrichment, and supervised outdoor play in a secure fenced backyard. Dogs enjoy active playtime and socialization with my friendly household dogs, while cats receive sunbathing, interactive play, and quiet comfort. Every pet benefits from one-on-one attention, consistent supervision, and social interaction. I also offer safe transportation in my three-row seated car if needed. With years of experience caring for pets of all ages, I ensure every animal feels loved, secure, and fully cared for in my home.

LANCASTER, TX, 75134

About: I started pet setting because of my love of fur babies. To me, they are not pets, they are family. I cared for my Simon for the past 18 years. My house has been customized for him because he was a part of my family. From his own room with pet pictures and a fun chandelier, to the dog doors on our patio, to his own private section of the yard, my home is pet friendly. My home will be your fur baby's home away from home. I have experience with young playful pups all the way to senior dogs who require more delicate attention. My family is ready to assist you in your needs. I am a stay at home mom. My schedule typically involves taking my kids to and from school, sitting on the patio, going for walks around the neighborhood, shooting home decor youtube videos, and shopping. While fur sitting, I will typically be home. Your baby will have its own little room (the closet under the stairs with a baby gate). His room is only a few feet from my own bedroom and in the middle of the living room and kitchen. If your baby is housebroken, he will be able to walk around the house freely and I will take him on the patio and the playground in my backyard. If he likes walks, he can go on walks. If he is a senior or if it is too hot outside, I can take him for a walk in the pet stroller. I will also send videos and pictures throughout his stay. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your dog will not be outside alone. I also have an enclosed patio which is great for relaxing and getting fresh air without having to be completely outside.
