Highly-rated overnight sitters - Abner
“Cayonna was a great sitter for my two pits. She made sure they were well fed, played, and got attention. She was also accommodating with our schedule as our plans did happen to change. She is a great sitter and I recommend anyone who is looking for someone to watch their dogs to book with her.”
“Mary was very patient and kind waiting for my shy Teddy to warm up to her. Meanwhile Taz warmed right up and Mary spent a lot of time playing ball with him. She sent me pictures and updates throughout their stay. Very happy to have found someone to treat my furbabies so well while we were away.”
“William was fantastic! Very professional and I felt a genuine sincerity that reassured me he would take excellent care of my dog. I had a peace of mind also knowing William didn't have any of his own pets and that there's no chance of conflict with another dog or cat around. I went out of town due to a family emergency, and William was great with prompt communication and flexibility. I would absolutely recommend William for taking care of your pets, and he'll be my go to in the future. Thank you William!”
“I highly recommend Ian and his family for providing a safe, engaging and loving home for any dog! We left our 2 year old German Shepherd mix for almost a week while we traveled over the holidays and he thrived in their care. Every request we had for his care was meticulously provided and so much more… I’m surprised our dog wanted to come home to us! Photo and video updates daily insured us of our dog’s wellbeing and allowed us to not worry about him at all. We’d give a rating of 10 stars if it was possible! Thanks, Ian!”
“Lauren was fabulous! We did a meet & greet a few weeks before, and the girls ran into her home like they had been there before. She sent me lots of cute photos of the girls while they were with her too. We would definitely use her again. Thanks again, Lauren!”
“Jessica took such great care of our dog while we were away traveling. She sent us video and photo updates and did an excellent job. Definitely would recommend and use again!”
“I had such a great experience with Oleksandra! Coco and Chewy seemed so happy and well taken care of, and she kept me updated throughout their stay, which gave me peace of mind. I felt very comfortable leaving them with her, and I would definitely book with her again!”
“Thank you Iovanna for sitting for our dog. I appreciate your attention and the care you gave him. Also the communication you kept with me was outstanding. I will recommend you to anyone I come across.”
“My fur babies loved Aushi! Her backyard is spacious enough for the dogs to run around. She provided updates while I was out of town. My dogs were super tired when I picked them up, so I can tell they enjoyed their stay! 🤍”
“Margarita was amazing!! She kept my puppy for a week while I was on vacation and he was so happy and well taken care of. She also made sure I got plenty or pictures and videos of him and kept me well informed of his progress. I will absolutely be using her services again. She was so patient with my pup and even gave him a bath. He smelt amazing!”
“My baby Lola enjoyed her stay with Mrs. Madelin & Cattleya (her new bff). Mrs. Madelin kept me up to date and shared pictures. This allowed me to enjoy my time away and gave me peace of mind. I already scheduled my next boarding. I totally recommend her.”
“Blake is the Best!! Our Koda absolutely LOVES him! He sent us pics and updates throughout Koda's stay with him, which we really appreciated. We didn't have to worry about a thing knowing our pup was in Blakes care. He is our 'Go-To' when we need a sitter. Highly recommend!!”
“We’re so grateful for the great care our dog received! We really appreciated the pictures and updates throughout her stay, it gave us peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. We’ve already booked another stay!”
“Reached out to Eric for a last minute boarding to attend a family event. Eric was more than welcoming. Showed up and was given a friendly showing of the backyard and he let my two 1 year old pups get introduced to his awesome dogs. They all settled in and it was great. My dogs immidiatly began running and playing and I knew they would have a great time. I got photo updates and status reports that were awesome and pick up was a breeze. My dogs were passed out as soon as I got them in my vehicle. Really enjoyed the peace of mind having my dogs at Eric's and we will def be back when we're in town.”

I work from home full time, so your dog will have my attention all day long — no long hours alone! I’m available for boarding and drop-ins 7 days a week.

About: Growing up with animals all my life, I shared my love with my own kids by volunteering with our local shelter and rescues with my kiddos. With over 200 foster dogs, many of which were puppies, they are naturals and know much about pet care. We have 2 small dogs and 1 cat (inside/outside) of our own who are also accustom to other animals through our home. For care in your home, I can come by up to 4 times a day - walk, feed, water, potty breaks and play/cuddle. When at my house, I work from home, so potty breaks, walks and outside time are frequent. A typical day around here consists of potty breaks first thing and meals distributed in the morning. However, if you have a different schedule, I can accommodate that. At your home, we will start with time outside, then feed/water as needed, cuddle and play, and always go back outside for potty time before departure. We can also follow any instructions you might have. At my home, I have a very large backyard (several acres) that is currently partially fenced. While I am working on a smaller fenced area for our guests, if needed, I have a 50' lead where your dog will be fully supervised but allowed to run, play and sunbathe. Also, we will go on leashed walks.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for them since I was a child. Growing up with dogs taught me how important patience, attention, and love are when caring for pets.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I understand that each pet has its own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to following each owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping a pet company, I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I start classes at UTD on August 24, but I’ll still have time to provide dependable care before and after classes, as well as on many weekends. I also attend church on Thursdays and Sundays, so I plan my schedule around those commitments. I keep my availability updated and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications (if needed), and any special care requests. I take time to help pets feel comfortable and make sure they always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay aware of our surroundings. In a client’s home, I treat both the home and pets with respect, keep everything clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: Hello! My name is Flor, caring and advocating for animals is my passion. Currently, my hubs and I live with 6 furrkids (2 senior Great Pyrs, and 4 cats) and foster for 3 different rescue groups when able! My experience ranges from caring for elderly dogs needing meds and fluids, cats of all ages, and puppies, to farm sitting over 30 chickens/guineas, goats, llamas, and pigs. If you have never legged a llama with a prosthesis, you have not lived! I also have experience in feeding and medicating neonatal kittens, as well as younger kittens that have been orphaned. I would love to be part of your pet's comfort while you are not home, and will always send a plethora of pictures to keep your mind at ease. Thanks for reading! And tell your animals I said hi :) Please be aware that anything over 25 miles of distance that is not overnight stay, will include gas/mileage charges. I work from home, which means I can easily step away from my laptop and either go check on your pets, or stay at your home and be attentive to their needs at all times. It all depends on what your and your pet's level of comfort and needs are. I want to know routines and habits you have established with your pets, to make sure the transition to being cared for by someone new is as smooth and not stressful as possible. For example: my furkids have breakfast and dinner times, scheduled walks, meds that need giving, as well as every night brushing to unwind. Each animal and owner are different though, and that is what I want to learn so we can all be safe and comfortable!

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and treat every pet like my own.

“Taylor did an AMAZING job with Kobe! She was available last minute for his walks and was able to assist with caring for him. Her communication was great! I will definitely use her again.”
About: I have worked at Petsmart before. At Petsmart we are required to know what makes a dog comfortable while at a public place or somewhere other than home. I have watched over puppies 2 and 3 months old for my in laws a couple times now. My parents got a kitten that I helped take care of till I moved out about 10 months later. I own a chinchilla which is an exotic small animal. I’ve had her for a year. I’ve been fascinated by pets since I was a child and always do my research before taking care of an animal. I look forward to being of assistance. I fluctuate between part time and full time. I’m usually free tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursdays. I can schedule the time off if it’s 3 or 4 weeks in advance. I usually work mornings except for mondays, when I work evenings. I can always visit the pup or kitty during break and then spend the rest of the day with them after work. This will most likely be temporary until I can get a solid schedule here or at Home Depot. My apartment complex is very pet friendly. My building is only a few steps away from a dog park inside of the complex. The clubhouse has dog treats and I can provide as well based on age and diet. I will always ask any questions about what you would prefer for your fur baby. I have a chinchilla that stays in a cage as long as your pet is around. She is curious and will not hurt your pet even if they stick a paw in between the bars, which is hard to do anyways. My living room is a large space for any pet. I’m currently working part time, but I’m willing to do weekly stays with 2-3 weeks in advance notice. I also will require meet ups before every service in a public place. This is not going to be required for existing clients. I live in an apartment so I don’t currently own any pets, but everyone in my direct and extended family either has, or has had one that I’ve grown up with. I’m very familiar with animal routines and attributes. If something is bothering your pet, I will notice. I always keep in constant contact with whoever I petsit or help take care of for anything I may notice. Most of the time it’s things owners are already aware of, but I’ve always found it never hurts to ask and inform.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14 years old, we’ve had them in the home growing up. I previously walked dogs and have been a sitter as well. I am available anything, to watch any fur babies. I don’t mind clearing my schedule for them. It would be a honor to do that. I can easily create your dog if that’s your preference, I have a gated back yard with high fences so your big fury babies are welcomed as well.

“Cayonna was a great sitter for my two pits. She made sure they were well fed, played, and got attention. She was also accommodating with our schedule as our plans did happen to change. She is a great sitter and I recommend anyone who is looking for someone to watch their dogs to book with her.”
“William was fantastic! Very professional and I felt a genuine sincerity that reassured me he would take excellent care of my dog. I had a peace of mind also knowing William didn't have any of his own pets and that there's no chance of conflict with another dog or cat around. I went out of town due to a family emergency, and William was great with prompt communication and flexibility. I would absolutely recommend William for taking care of your pets, and he'll be my go to in the future. Thank you William!”
“I highly recommend Ian and his family for providing a safe, engaging and loving home for any dog! We left our 2 year old German Shepherd mix for almost a week while we traveled over the holidays and he thrived in their care. Every request we had for his care was meticulously provided and so much more… I’m surprised our dog wanted to come home to us! Photo and video updates daily insured us of our dog’s wellbeing and allowed us to not worry about him at all. We’d give a rating of 10 stars if it was possible! Thanks, Ian!”
“Lauren was fabulous! We did a meet & greet a few weeks before, and the girls ran into her home like they had been there before. She sent me lots of cute photos of the girls while they were with her too. We would definitely use her again. Thanks again, Lauren!”
“Jessica took such great care of our dog while we were away traveling. She sent us video and photo updates and did an excellent job. Definitely would recommend and use again!”

“Margarita was amazing!! She kept my puppy for a week while I was on vacation and he was so happy and well taken care of. She also made sure I got plenty or pictures and videos of him and kept me well informed of his progress. I will absolutely be using her services again. She was so patient with my pup and even gave him a bath. He smelt amazing!”
“We’re so grateful for the great care our dog received! We really appreciated the pictures and updates throughout her stay, it gave us peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. We’ve already booked another stay!”
“Reached out to Eric for a last minute boarding to attend a family event. Eric was more than welcoming. Showed up and was given a friendly showing of the backyard and he let my two 1 year old pups get introduced to his awesome dogs. They all settled in and it was great. My dogs immidiatly began running and playing and I knew they would have a great time. I got photo updates and status reports that were awesome and pick up was a breeze. My dogs were passed out as soon as I got them in my vehicle. Really enjoyed the peace of mind having my dogs at Eric's and we will def be back when we're in town.”

Highly recommend and will be using again!”

About: Taking care of dogs has taught me more about patience, responsibility, and unconditional love than I ever expected. Whether it's making sure they're fed, taking them for walks, or simply spending time with them, I find joy in knowing they depend on me and trust me completely. The bond that develops through daily care is incredibly rewarding, and seeing their excitement over the smallest things reminds me to appreciate life's simple moments. I am a stay-at-home wife who enjoys working out, cooking, watching movies, listening to music, and creating a warm home for my family and dogs.

I have a secure fenced yard where they can safely go to the bathroom, play, and stretch their legs throughout the day. I enjoy providing them with a loving, comfortable environment where they feel happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Janine was a wonderful fit for my little Maltese. She took great care of him, and even let him sleep on her bed, just like he does in my home. She has a little potbellied pig and my dog chased the pig and he chased her! It was so fun to watch! I would definitely leave my dog with her, again!”
“Christina and Brian were great and we'd definitely use them again. This was our first experience with leaving Bella in someone else's home but they made us feel at ease right away during the meet and greet and when we came back Bella looked right at home. Sent pics and communication was easy and fast. Thanks!”
“Boone enjoys his stay with Ms. Lori. She follows our rules but also is so helpful in helping him learn and be a good boy. She plays with him and even provided special treats. This is his second stay and will book again when we take another trip. Ms Lori is so sweet and amazing.”
