“Jacob did a beautiful job with our dog Ripley; he was communicative, stuck to the schedule we provided, and sent us many adorable photos of Ripley during their time together (which helped us miss him a little less!). I think it helps that Jacob himself is so calm, as is his space, that Ripley, who is a bit hyper, was chilled out too. Would heartily recommend Jacob to anyone who needs a safe, reliable, and responsible sitter!”

“Jonathan is awesome! We were so happy that Jacks got to stay with him for 10 days. Jonathan took exceptional care of Jacks. He sent pics every day. Best of all were the videos showing Jacks running around and playing while Jonathan spoke about how he was doing. Jacks had a great time and is looking forward to his next stay.”

“I have a 3 month old kitten. This my first time leaving my baby girl since I adopted her. Alyssa reassured me constantly and sent photos and Videos of my fur baby so I could enjoy my vacation in peace. She feed her properly and returned all of her things at pick up. (I’m sure I sent my kittens whole house of stuff) She responded quickly and gave updates daily. I will definitely recommend her and will definitely be using her again. Thank uuuu Alyssa!!”

“Selena was awesome! I have had my goldendoodle at her place twice so far. Once over the long Thanksgiving break and once with a really short notice over the weekend. Both times, she’s been amazing. She responds to texts and calls. Provides updates, sends videos and photos. Thank you Selena!”

“Joshua is awesome ! My husky LOVED him and his doggos. Azul had a blast in his backyard everyday and made new friends. Josh was on top of care instructions provided and did updates while I was away. VERY happy about the experience and will be booking with Josh for future stays. 10/10 recommend.”


About: I’ve had experience with both dogs and cats, having been a dog owner myself and currently a volunteer foster in the DFW area. I have cared for all ages — including puppies, kittens as young as 1 week old, adult cats/dogs and senior dogs. I hope to care for your pet be it in the comfort of their home or ours. Lots of room in the backyard for zoomies! I do work full time but have the flexibility to work from home. I typically go into the office 3 days a week and do half days as I occasionally pet sit or care for foster animals. Happy to talk about arrangements or flexibility! We do not have any permanent resident pets in our home, just the occasional fosters. We do crate when away from home, but pets have full roaming capabilities when we’re home. If I come to your home I’m happy to abide by any rules or routines you prefer!

“Nancy and her husband are the best sitters! My two have stayed with them several times. The dogs get excited when we drive up to the house and are all smiles whenever pick them up. I can’t say enough good things about Nancy and her husband!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Crystal. She was incredibly responsive, which made the booking process, pick up and drop off smooth. The care my pet received was exceptional; I can tell Crystal and her family truly love animals and treated my fur child like their own. Crystal was super friendly and kept me updated with photos, videos, and messages throughout the stay. I will definitely be booking with Crystal again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter!”

“Sarah was so amazing!!! She wore my very energetic puppy out and took excellent care of him! She was so nice and sent me multiple pictures and updates throughout the day! I loved that she even worked on some training with my puppy!”


“If I could give Mercy a higher rating than 5 stars, I absolutely would! We got photos and updates and everything you could ever want from a sitter! Our dog was so loved and cared for while we were out of town and we are so happy with his care, we won’t be using anyone other than Mercy for as long as she dog sits!”

“Our pups loved Elizabeth! She kept us updated with pictures throughout the day and it gave us peace of mind. Very easy to communicate with! 100% will re-book.”


“Krystal was great! We were visiting from out of town and wanted a chill place for our pup for a few days! Sweet Dee enjoyed her stay and had lots of fun with Krystal and her pup. We will definitely use Krystal again when visiting the area!”

“Monica was great!! Sent photos of my pup, provided a cute little report card when I picked him up, and my dog was exhausted from his stay! He truly slept for days after all the playing he did.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, so I’m comfortable caring for them through every stage from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive approach. I’m patient with puppy routines and understand the consistency they need, and I’m equally mindful of the extra care, gentleness, and awareness senior dogs require. I genuinely enjoy being active, so long walks, playtime, and making sure dogs get the exercise they need is something I prioritize. At the same time, I’m very in tune with each dog’s personality whether they’re high energy or more of a couch companion and I adjust my care to fit what makes them happiest and most comfortable. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m currently in school and working part-time, which allows me to be home the majority of the week and flexible with scheduling walks, feedings, and playtime. During the week we are available, and depending on the weekend, we are often available then as well. My husband works locally and can come home as needed, so there is consistent care and attention for the dogs throughout the day. Because of this, I’m able to provide a stable, attentive environment where pets aren’t left alone for long periods and can stick to their normal routines. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether in my home or a client’s home. At my home, we have a fenced yard that allows for safe outdoor play and exercise, along with plenty of supervised time inside for rest and attention. I follow feeding schedules closely, keep water fresh, and make sure each dog gets the right balance of activity and downtime. I’m comfortable with crate routines if that’s what your dog is used to our own dog loves her crate but I also welcome dogs who prefer their own bed and a more relaxed setup. In a client’s home, I aim to keep everything as consistent as possible with their normal routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, and any specific instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.
“Ms Janet was AMAZING!!! This was my first time away from my Lola and I was very nervous. I was able to do a video chat with Janet ahead of Lola's stay; immediately I felt comfortable. Ms Janet kept me up to date on Lola and sent pics and videos. I was very comfortable and grateful to have chosen Ms. Janet to watch my baby. I will definitely reach out to her again for further stays for Lola. Thank you a million times and more Janet!!”

“Nick and Ashley were amazing sitters for Snooki, they were in contact and sent pictures the entire time. I can tell Snooki had a great time with them. I will definitely book with them again in the future!”

I had a great experience at Krystal’s while I was out of town over the 4th of July weekend. She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. My 3 year old golden, Magnolia, was clearly well cared for and had a great time, I picked up a very tired pup! I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

We loved Mercy and her family. My dog is a recent addition to my family and we were apprehensive about leaving on a 3 day trip without her. Mercy invited us for a meet and greet beforehand and we felt our dog would be in good hands with them. We received many pictures and updates everyday along with perfect communication from Mercy.

Eddy was absolutely fantastic with my dog! From the moment they met, my dog fell in love with him. By the end of the stay, I think my dog barely wanted to come home with me! Eddy kept me updated with pictures throughout the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that he genuinely cared for my dog and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Eddy to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet.

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!

Celia thank you so much for watching Penny for us. For others looking for sitters, I would highly recommend Celia. She was very attentive to Penny for an extended weekend during which she provided excellent care, lots of cuddles, and lots of updates on how Penny was doing / adapting to being with her. She even provided a personalized & fun review for Penny on how she did which was incredibly thoughtful. Thank you so much again!!

I cannot recommend Olivia enough! I reached out to her in a bit of a panic needing last-minute care for my dog Willow, and she said yes without hesitation. That alone was a huge relief, but what really stood out was how she kept me in the loop the entire time — regular updates, photos, the works. You could just tell Willow was comfortable and genuinely well looked after, not just tolerated. If you’re looking for someone who actually cares about your pup and won’t leave you anxiously checking your phone all day, Olivia is your person. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!

Amazing experience! Stella came home happy and clearly well‑loved. She probably can’t wait to go back! Meredith sent great updates and photos throughout the stay, and communication was super fast. I felt totally at ease the whole time. I’ll definitely rebook with her!

I had a wonderful experience with Crystal. She was incredibly responsive, which made the booking process, pick up and drop off smooth. The care my pet received was exceptional; I can tell Crystal and her family truly love animals and treated my fur child like their own. Crystal was super friendly and kept me updated with photos, videos, and messages throughout the stay. I will definitely be booking with Crystal again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter!

We have used Jennie multiple times for our Goldendoodle and our dog loves going and I can’t say enough good things! We most recently got stuck out of town due to the local ice storm and we knew our dog was being well cared for and loved. We always get pics of how the stay is going. Will keep using Jennie as long as she is available!
