Personalized care for your dog or cat - Carrollton

About: Your Dog’s House provides private, in-home dog care for owners who want a calm, safe, and structured alternative to kennels and app-based sitters. I work with a limited number of dogs at a time to ensure consistent, high-quality care and peace of mind. I have lifelong experience owning and caring for dogs of many breeds and sizes, from small companion breeds such as Bichon Frise to large working and sporting breeds including Irish Setters and Great Danes. I am comfortable handling energetic, strong, and high-needs dogs as well as senior pets requiring routine monitoring and calm care. I have also raised and bred Irish Setters, giving me hands-on experience with puppy development, feeding schedules, behavioral awareness, and maintaining safe environments for multiple dogs. I currently own Heelers. As a longtime homeowner and engineering professional, I am also comfortable monitoring basic household conditions such as utilities, security awareness, and general property care while clients' travel. I currently am semi-retired and have a flexible schedule and can be available for multiple days as the needs require. Extended duration could also be considered. I have had both indoor and outdoor pets, and understand needs vary from pet to pet. Things such as leash handling, multi-dog households, travel stress pets, feeding routines, and crate familiarity. I ensure trust is developed with prospective animals.

“I cannot imagine a better sitter for one’s dog. My Helen had a fabulous week with Alissa, and since she is a professional vet tech, Alissa knew exactly how to read signals, detect anxiety, and how to make Helen feel happy and at ease during her longest time apart from me to date. On top of all that, Alissa is a lovely and kind person, so trust was immediate for both Helen and me. Highly recommended!”

“Timely responses and sent photos. Felt comfortable that my boy was in good hands. I would definitely contact her if I find myself in town needing a sitter again!”

About: I’ve been a veterinary technician for 5 years working in primarily emergency services but also general practice, oncology and ophthalmology. I’m comfortable and confident with animals of every age, temperment and practice a fear free approach. Rest assured your pet will be loved and well cared for at all times. I’m available for sitting, walks and medication administration, boarding and day care I currently manage a veterinary hospital but I am able to take pets to work with me daily alongside my golden retriever Appa. If your pet prefers to hangout at home instead I have pet cameras to monitor them while I am working. I have 32 acres of property and an invisible fence available for dogs in need of some exercise. My home is 2 stories and big enough to accommodate large dogs. I have a spare bedroom dedicated to my cats filled with toys and towers for them so I can easily assist felines in need of a more confined space

About: I joined the crazy cat lady club 6 years ago and now have 3! I completely understand the nature of a cat and recognize how different they are from dogs and how little appreciation they get from the pet community. I have frequently checked in on my friends’ and parents’ cats over the years to feed, cuddle, and play while they have been out of town. I am deeply passionate about cat care because of my own cats. I know I would want someone like myself to care for my own cats while I was away so that I don’t have to worry about them as much (because the worrying will still persist with these feline personalities). Your cat will be in great hands with me!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a dedicated pet parent myself, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to cater to them with patience and attentiveness. I have experience with both energetic puppies who need extra playtime and training reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who require gentle care and medication management. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Plus, I provide regular updates and pictures so you always know how your furry friend is doing. With me, your pet isn’t just getting a sitter—they’re getting a new friend who will treat them like family! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I have two dogs of my own who keep me active and engaged. Every day, I make time for walks, play sessions, feeding schedules, and cuddle breaks, ensuring they get the attention and care they need. Because of this, integrating additional pets into my routine is seamless—I’m already in the habit of providing consistent, loving care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening playtime, I prioritize each pet’s unique schedule. I’m also flexible and can adjust my routine to fit the specific needs of the pets I’m caring for, whether that means extra exercise for high-energy dogs or a slower, more relaxed pace for seniors. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s a lifestyle I love! When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping their routine consistent to reduce any stress. I ensure they receive meals on time, get plenty of exercise and bathroom breaks, and have companionship while their owners are away. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pet is in great hands. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean and following any special instructions provided. No matter where I’m caring for a pet, my focus is on providing the same level of love and attention I’d want for my own!
