Hailey went above and beyond when it came to checking in on my cat Seamus. She brought a toy for him to play with, and she even clipped his claws. That means a lot to me since I'm not physically able to clip his claws myself due to only having one functioning arm. I'd recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!

Erica did a fantastic job taking care of my furball! She communicated clearly and was very polite, Maggie must’ve liked her as well because she came out to visit each time Erica came by. I will definitely reach out to Erica in the future!

About: I have grown up and taken care of both dogs and cats my whole life. I was about 10 years old when I took an active role taking care of our pets. During marriage life, we’ve always had pets (dogs, cats and a tortoise). I also volunteered from 2015 to 2020 at a wildlife rehabilitation organization where I performed husbandry for wildlife and a colony of feral cats. In addition, I volunteered for a non-profit pet rescue facility called “Frosted Faces” where they rescue older dogs and cats. I fed, bathed, played with and cleaned after them. I also volunteered at an Aussie rescue where I interacted with the dogs and cats to help them be more comfortable with people and their present environment. I also bathed dogs, fed and cleaned after the cats. In addition, I cleaned up the outside area where the goats on the property were. I have a very calm presence around animals and never met one that I couldn’t handle. Please keep me in mind for any help you may need with your furry ones. We have recently moved here to the Cedar Creek Lake area. I’m available most days as my three daughters are now attending college and I haven’t pursued employment in the area yet. We have two dogs and a cat. We have an outdoor fence for our dogs but they’re inside most of the time. Our cat is always indoors. I’m very flexible to the needs of every client’s routine with their pets.

Melissa is great. I needed a sitter at the last minute, and she quickly responded. She came over and met Blue and spent time getting to know him before accepting the work. Blue loves her. Melissa sent pictures daily with good status reports. She even alerted me when someone came to my home that she was not sure they should have been there. Knowing she was caring for Blue helped me have peace of mind during my working trip. I will be using Melissa again! Thank you, Melissa.

Charlene is terrific! So patient and kind with my two crazy dogs. Couldn’t ask for a better, more loving person to check in on them. She has been more than willing to spend time with my large dog who has terrible anxiety and isn’t great with strangers but he took to her immediately which is how I knew I made the right choice when choosing her as a sitter. So thankful we found her!

About: I've had a dog since I was in 3rd grade. I have had a connection with dogs ever since. I think they are great animals and great companions. I like each individual dog's personality because they are all different. We homeschool our kids and take care of our three dogs on a daily basis. They get two walks a day (the dogs and kids 🤣) We do not have a fenced yard, however, our dogs go out numerous times a day with our supervision to run around and play. We take them on a minimum of 2 walks a day. We have older kids in the house who love dogs as well. We treat our dogs like our kids and will do the same for your fur baby.

About: Dogs and cats have always been drawn to me, whether my own, childhood pets or ones I just meet. Growing up our family pets always slept on my bed at night. I get the feeling they sense that they're safe and loved. My little girl, Maddie, was a rescue from the pound. She tested for heartworm and her human gave her up. She was five. She's been under treatment for heart murmur for 5 years, and is now experiencing bladder & colon obstruction. But her personality is just as happy and perky as ever. I had a cat that was with me for 23 years, who had 5 litters before I could get her in for spay, she was always pregnant before I could get her done! She was an outside cat until the last five years when I moved to a condo and she became a couch queen. I've had one large dog and 2 small dogs as an adult, and never boarded any of them ever. They went with me, or I had a friend stay with them. I'm retired and had a part time job driving for retirement home residents on the weekend to the store or church. I stopped working once the pandemic forced the facility to lock down & all off-property trips were prohibited. That was June 2020. I moved from Dallas to the lake and am ready for part time work. My little girl has the run of the place, she's got a bed, her own crocheted afghan on the couch, and a towel at the foot of the bed. She takes several meds for her condition. Has her nails trimmed & teeth cleaned. She has a big selection of food and treats. She takes me on long walks twice a day, and stays in the yard if I'm outside working. She hardly leaves my side. I have an rv so she can go with me when I travel. I've taken care of friends dogs when they travel.

About: I have loved and cared for animals all my life. I have trained animals, worked as a veterinarian technician, pet sitter and volunteered at sanctuaries and spay/neuter clinics. I cn administer all medications including injections. I work full time but have plenty of time in the morning and evenings to take care of your family member. Walks, games and snuggles! I do not keep pets in my home. It has been my experience they do better staying in their own home. Less stress and anxiety.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the longest time. I grew up with all different kinds of dogs and cats, I’m very well experienced. I currently work every Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday but when I get off work I’m available. I’m also available on the days I do not work, I do have a baby so hopefully you don’t mind if he tags along! I have a crate, I do live in an apartment so dogs who bark and whine will not be allowed due to past experiences. I can only have them in my home for a night or two, they must be good with other dogs, kids, and men.

About: I have had dogs my entire life, as a four years ago I got an orange cat and could not choose between either for the life of me. I cannot wait to meet and take care of your fur babies :) I am currently in nursing school only taking up 2 to 3 days a week. I am not available for on boarding in my home yet due to my animals. I make sure that the bowls are always full, or their food has been given on time along with medication if needed. I also make sure they are getting as much outside time as they can get.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for the almost 7 years. My husband-who also works with me- has been taking care and sitting pets for the last 12 years. We have a beautiful, and energetic kelpie mix named Biscuit, and British shorthair named Eggs. Health and safety are a main priority to both of us. We like to make sure that all dogs in our care are well hydrated, and that no dog is in a situation that makes them nervous. We always make sure to provide the best care for each individual, because this isn’t just an animal, it’s a member of your family, and we know that you would want the best care for your family like we would. Currently I work part time. I am able to look after your wonderful pets full time all days of the week if given a 7 days notice of when services are needed. By ensuring that all equipment is properly secured with taking walks or engaging outdoors with environment or other animals, and that any messes are cleaned, whether it be on the animal or the places they are staying in.

About: I have worked consistently with a couple families and several drop in services for family friends! I have taken the wonderful doggos on walks, assisted with their medications, fed them, provided baths/brushed their fur, gave them extra pets/hugs. I can provide basic animal care, I always do my best to observe their body language as well to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I have also helped with a special needs doggo who was blind, gave him his medicine, guided him through his backyard to use the restroom, etc. I would also love to provide any cleaning such as cleaning their bowls, vacuuming up any hair, cleaning crates, etc. I work 24 hours on/ 48 hours off at a time so I have a bit more free time and would love to be a helping companion to your sweet animals! I always listen to the let parents and how their schedule typically is and go off of that, I really do love animals so I’ll spend more time playing with them, especially if the doggo wants that play time and extra love!

About: Hello! My name is Jalayne and I am an animal caretaker! I do this because I Love it! It's more than the money for me, for me it's about getting to spend time with the animals, give the pet owners a peace of mind, and making the situation much easier for everyone. I currently have 3 senior dogs of my own, 2 young dogs and my husband has a puppy that I look after as well. We have 2 inside kitties and 1 bunny too! We have 4 outside we take care of also. We even have had chickens! I love all kinds of animals and I am willing to care for any kind you have! In the past I lightly volunteered at an animal shelter, wildlife rehabilitation center, and even worked with a groomer as a bather for a few weeks! I would love to tell you more about myself and my experience if you like so please don't hesitate to messege me anytime. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your lovely pets! I currently work at the school at the moment so I'm usually free any time as the hours are minimal. I'll soon be a stay at home parent again so I'll be home 100%. On Sundays I go to church in the mornings and maybe out to eat afterwards. I also have church services on Wednesday evenings. I have a very large fenced yard with a gate. I shut the gate to keep in very large dogs but if I board a small dog I'd leash him or her. But we are working on making the gaps covered since my dogs are so small as well. When the pets are in my care I make sure to update you with some photos every once in a while. And I will always contact you first if I have any questions! I am home majority of my day so most of my time is available just for this! I love meeting new pets of all kinds! I have a very big yard that I let dogs get some energy out and my kids will constantly play with them if they like! I'm able to kennel them if that's what you prefer and I try to go by what the owners regularly do to make it easier on the pet.
