“Dana was wonderful with my cats while I was out of town. I was very comfortable knowing they were being well cared for in my absence. She visited & communicated timely & responds quickly, a true sign of a professional. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again.”


About: I’m a huge animal lover and have taken care of dogs since I was 12. I’m always excited to take them on walks and show them much love!💗 I am originally from Orange, California and just moved to Sherman, TX. I’m available for dog walking on weekdays and drop-in visits & sitting on weekends. I will accommodate to your needs and your pets’ needs to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I’m very attentive and will take great care of your pets.

About: Hi! I am Gracie. Caring for dogs is something I've always known how to do. From someone who has been raised with dogs my whole life, I consider them family. That is exactly how your baby will feel when they are with me My home is fenced off with open fields perfect for the wildest zoomies. Your pup will have access to water at all times, being fed according to your directions, along with lots of tummy rubs, hugs, and naps. And you can bet they are allowed on all furniture, when they are in my home we treat them like family. My goal is to show you can trust me with your fur baby and know that they are in good hands and will feel just as loved as at home. Currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to give to your dogs or cats. My mornings and afternoons are extremely flexible and I have most nights to board at my house You can ensure that your babies will be just as loved as at home. Trust is important to me and I want you to feel safe and secure knowing who you leave your pet with. That is someone who deeply cares for animals and shows passion and love to them always.

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch. While serving in the military, I became my company’s go-to pet sitter, trusted to provide reliable care for both dogs and cats during long trainings and deployments—sometimes up to a month at a time. I’m experienced with overnight care, senior pet routines, administering medication, and making shy or anxious animals feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or extended care, I treat every pet like family. I recently transitioned out of the military, so my schedule is very flexible right now. I’m available every day after 12 PM and can easily accommodate afternoon, evening, or overnight care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—whether it’s daily drop-ins, long walks, or extended stays, I have the time and commitment to give your pets the attention they deserve. I take pet safety and comfort seriously—whether they’re in my home or yours. At my home, I have a big, securely fenced-in backyard perfect for playtime, and I share the space with my three friendly (and spoiled!) miniature dachshunds who love making new friends. I always do slow introductions to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. When providing drop-in care or walks at your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine. I follow all instructions carefully, double-check gates and doors, and make sure your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a long walk, I keep safety a top priority and send regular updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I have 10+ yrs of experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I have 2 dogs myself that's are love bugs! They get along great with other dogs. Before moving to TX I cared for 3 dogs, 1 small & 2 big. All dogs were taught basic commands, tricks, leash etiquette and more! I also have plenty if experience with puppies. Loveee puppies! l am home all days of the week including weekends and can make my own schedule! I am very flexible with pick up & drop off times as well. I have a 6ft fence surrounding my backyard and security cameras to keep an eye on your pet at all times. I live in the perfect neighborhood for taking your pet on walks if you'd prefer I do so during boarding. I can crate your pet if requested. They can also sleep where they choose - dog bed, human bed, crate, in my room, in a spare room, etc. Lastly, I have 2 dogs, no cats & no children.

“Ashlee was so sweet and our socially anxious fur baby loved her!! She send us pics and a detailed update every day, the occasional video and she even sent us a link to a toy she thought our cat would enjoy based on her playing style. Our cat is pretty shy and she took to Ashlee very quickly, and we could tell she was a great fit right away. She’s very communicative and quick to respond to messages, 10/10 would absolutely book again.”


About: I have multiple years of experience sitting/boarding dogs and other types of animals. I have experience with all ages of pets and my goal is for your pet to feel at home and be comfortable with me and their environment. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you might have! I work full time from home so I am able to give your pet lots of attention throughout the day and attend to their needs whatever they may be as my schedule is flexible I have a large house and a fenced yard so your pet will have lots of space! We listen to our clients pet care needs and do our best to accommodate!

About: What sets me apart from others, is that I’m in the process of starting vet school, and I have two beautiful Great Danes! I absolutely adore animals and truth be told if I could I would have a ranch for all of them❤️ I’m a stay at home wife, who does what she can for the strays that see. It’s perfect for me because we have a busy life and can’t really squeeze in a full time job with scheduling. So taking care of fur babies part time is something I’d really love to do! Playtime, baths, feeding, walks, and if asked I could take them to the dog park vet visits whatever it may be:) I just can’t provide any medical attention

About: I have a gentle and loving spirit. I accept all animals into my world. The more the better! I have a lot of love to give. I work part time so I have plenty of extra time to spend with all the pets. I love being outside and going for walks and spending time with animals as much as I can. Whenever I'm with any pets, they have my full attention and care. I'm happy to sit with pets as long as needed and give them the love and care.

About: Greetings! My name is Kay. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, and even as a child, I knew I wanted to have a career based on that love. I grew up on Animal Planet, and spent my time studying everything about animals, from Herpetology, the study of reptiles and amphibians, to Cynology, the study of Canines. I’ve cared for pets for my entire life, and there was never a time when my home wasn’t filled with the sounds of birds chirping, Guinea Pigs squeaking, cats meowing, or dogs barking. From 0-8 legs, I’ve had them all, including mice, hamsters, various lizards and snakes, frogs, fish, turtles, and even insects. Out of everything that I have loved, no relationships have brought me greater joy than the ones I have fostered with my dogs, and so I have devoted my life to the care and study of the Canine, including aspects such as general health, nutrition, disease and illness, behavior, and obedience. As a professional Dog Trainer, I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of dogs, as well as people. I regularly train puppies, pure and mixed breed dogs, and seniors, and I have assisted people with house-training, training a deaf dog, dealing with behavior issues, trauma, and medical diagnoses. I have experience with hunting dogs, Guard/Patrol dogs, ESA’s, large and small breeds, and all ages, and I am looking forward to getting to know your dog too. My schedule varies depending on the needs of my clients, and I travel from Little Elm to McKinney to Trenton on a regular basis for training sessions, drop ins, or walks. Exercise is a big part of my daily routine, and I'm more than happy to bring your dog along for the run. There are many things that dogs need in order to be not only happy, but healthy as well. I believe proper animal husbandry requires a foundation of knowledge on aspects such as Animal Behavior, diet and nutrition, health, exercise, and general wellness. When I take care of a pet, I am taking care of more than just food and water. I regularly check my own dogs for parasites, both external and internal, perform basic procedures such as ear cleaning, tooth brushing, nail trimming, and scan them for medical issues. When I visit your house, I will keep my eyes open for parasites, injuries, behavioral issues, and potential environmental hazards, while feeding, watering, exercising, and playing with your dog. I think exercise and play time are huge factors in a dog's quality of life, and I will make it my mission to ensure that your dog gets plenty of both. As a professional Dog Trainer, I also believe a happy dog is a well trained dog, and I would be happy to offer any necessary training assistance or tips while I’m there!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I sit for family/friends animals and I love animals of all kinds but dogs hold a special place in my heart. Dogs just know certain things a lot of people don’t. 🐾 🐶 It’s important for dogs to have a schedule. I take my dogs outside every two-three hours, outside time is important to any and all animals. I will treat and take care of your pet as if it were my own. My two dogs are my life. I’m trustworthy and honest and will treat your pet with the love that I would expect from someone caring for my pet.

About: I've owned dogs growing up, as well as watched pets(mainly dogs, cats, and snakes) for family and neighbors for about 10 years now! I have walked, fed, bathed, as well as given different medications to pets, and am comfortable with any breed. I am a fresh college graduate, looking for a good summer time gig! Aside from pet sitting, I also do uber eats/doordash. While pet sitting, I do not have to do deliveries if you would prefer! If needed, I can crate your pets. I am able to walk, pick up, and transport pets as needed. I personally have a lot of energy, so I will happily run around with your pets to get the energy out!

About: I am currently living with four dogs and one cat. My dog is an Pitbull and a big baby. We go for a walk every morning.

My classes are on Monday 9:00am-4:00pm Wednesday 9:00am-11:30am Friday 9:00am- 11:30am When taking care of a pet in a clients home I ensure the pet is fed, entertained, taken out in a timely manner and cared for in any other special additional aspects!

About: I used to take care and breed dogs with my family when I was younger. Then I began watching friends and families dogs as I got older. I love all animals but especially dogs. I am a junior here at Oklahoma State studying to become a veterinarian. I also have two dogs of my own. Snoopy is a bernidoodle and Mocha is a mutt. They are both rescue dogs. I have two dogs of my own as previously mentioned and I am in college. However, my dogs and I go to the park at least once a day and we go on walks in the morning. In between classes I come home to let them potty and they free roam with feed and water when I am gone. My dogs get baths once or twice a week. They free roam with food and eat when they please. They have plenty of toys to play with and I have two crates here in case I need to crate them.

Hannah K.
“Hannah is hands down the best cat sitter I’ve ever had! She watched my three cats for a full month, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. She not only made sure they were fed and had fresh water every day, but also spent quality time with them—playing, snuggling, and giving each one the individual attention they crave. Hannah clearly loves animals and treated my cats like her own. She sent me regular updates with photos and notes, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. She was also incredibly prepared—she knew the locations of nearby emergency vets and had a clear plan in case anything unexpected happened (thankfully, it wasn’t needed!). The litter boxes were spotless when I got home, and my cats were calm and happy—which says a lot! Hannah even took time to brush them and kept up with any special feeding instructions I left. Her attention to detail and genuine care made a world of difference. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving cat sitter!”

She is very smart and capable of giving excellent care like meds, massage, wrapping sores. She can brush the cats and change the cat boxes. My dogs have 2 to 3 different diets depending on their age. My cats do too. She is very loving and kind to my pets and never minds cleaning up after the older seniors and changing the diaper. She’s a true blessing to any owner and pet. ♥️”
