About: EXPERIENCE Professional experience in the dog boarding industry as well as 39 years of constant com*paw*nionship. I've only been 2 years of my entire life without a dog. A DAY IN THE LIFE OF MY DOGS My dogs live inside with me! They sleep at the foot of my bed on my bed (until I've had enough and nudge them off) and are employeed full time as my indoor shadow. It's a necessary expense!!! PERSONAL HISTORY/INSIGHT I'm a die-hard loyal companion to my pups bc they are to me first! Never surrendered a single one of my pets no matter the alternative road I faced! Moved and couldnt keep my dog? Didnt move. Approved on home under terms: No Dog, my reply, "my dog and me or deal breaker". I commit whole heartedly and for LIFE! How many people can say that and it be truth? I was the little girl who got untrusting strays to follow her home which I did by singing song from the little mermaid and Andrew Lloyd webber songs. <--yes...u read that right. They have always trusted me and warmed up to me extremely easily. WISDOM/RESILIENCE Growing up...a neighborhood dog almost ended my life and guess what....I learned a lot on what NOT to do and kept the bond strong. What happened to me didn't phase me. CONCLUSION I've always preferred the company of animals over people for many reasons. But don't judge me .... HIRE me. The friendship, respect, consideration and connection I can't help is of the absolute highest caliber. Period. I work from home and am extremely active. I'm an outdoorsy rebel who loves to explore the areas off the path. Hiking is how I stay going and sane. Dogs usually go with me. I care for them by being present and constantly engaged. I notice when they are laying on the floor and don't have something soft. I know the things to look for before a fight breaks out and I also know exactly how to get them to stop that does not risk either of the dogs or myself. *INSIDE THE HOME IS ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL WITH YEARS OF EXPERIENCE DOING JUST THIS...HIS PET IS ACTUALLY IN THE PHOTOS. AND HE CAN PROVIDE REFERENCES UPON REQUEST!
“Can’t begin to tell you how much we appreciate Julie watching over Bart and Bailey. It’s practically their seconds home judging how they react when we drive up. Today Julie went the extra mile when Mr. BART decided to get himself dirty. Thanks again Julie and we will be in touch soon. 🙂”
“Darren and his family took great care of Teddy! Darren made sure Ted took his allergy medicine, and we loved getting the pictures of the kids interacting with our pup! We would be happy to book with Darren again.”
“First time I ever left my baby with someone I did not personally know and was beyond happy! She exceeded all my expectations and made the whole experience worry free. My little dog had a blast and is now going to be extra excited I go on vacation!”

“Alina is great with my two cats. One of them is a foster kitty who is shy and she did great with her. Alina has great communication and I felt like my babies were in great hands. Will definitely rebook!”
“Meagan was super sweet and great with our kitties. She gave them fresh water each visit, topped off their food, picked the cat litter, and cleaned up their puke mess. She even swept the loose litter and brought in a package that was delivered! She gave the kitties she could find lots of lovies as well. We’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“Second time I have used Sofia! She is AMAZING! Very kind and will take great care of your fur babies. I love my animals like children and the horror stories of rovers scares me! I am so thankful to have found a great sitter I can trust!”
“Amber was absolutely amazing when I was scrolling looking for someone I just got a great feeling about her I made the perfect Choice. I was away on a birthday trip 7 days, and she took incredible care of my cat, Arrow, the entire time. She kept in touch with me every day, sending updates and pictures that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She made sure Arrow was well cared for, played with him, scooped his litter box, and even took the litter outside afterward to make sure my apartment stayed fresh which was great to come home to. She also took the time to let him drink from the faucet his absolute favorite thing! which showed me that she really paid attention to his personality and routines. On top of taking such great care of Arrow, Amber went above and beyond by bringing my trash can in and even putting my birthday flowers inside the house and in fridge to keep them fresh for me 🥹 It’s clear that Amber genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. Knowing Arrow and my home were in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation. I highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and thoughtful pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Sarah did an amazing job taking care of our kitties while we were on vacation. She even got our shy boy to warm up to her and come out from under the bed! We came home to happy healthy babies, which is all we could ever ask for.”
“Kendall was amazing with our cat Mizu! 🤍 She sent detailed updates and lots of photos, and we could tell Mizu was so comfortable and well cared for with her. Mizu clearly loved her too 🥺 She was also able to accommodate us with last-minute additional days of coverage, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful for her and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend Kendall to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Claire did a great job watching my two cats while i was out of town. She sent daily pictures and notes and was very responsive. I would definitely book with her again”
“Ann is a blessing! We have 3 uniquely different cats and one of them needs their pill twice a day. She came by everyday and gave them there pill and kept them company while we were gone for the week. She also picked up after the cats because our oldest has issues going poop in the litter box and throws up occasionally. We will definitely be using Ann again and we highly recommend them!!”
“Chelsea did an impeccable job taking care of my cat Ashe. I will be booking with her again! Ashe was fed on time and he didn’t come back filthy or disturbed/ overstimulated. My baby is his normal self and that means a lot because usually he comes back out of place. So thank you!!”
“Ana was fantastic as always! Her recaps and photos after each visit are so thorough and appreciated. I know without a doubt that our pup is in the best of hands when Ana is with her. Thank you so much, Ana!!”
“Makae was so perfect! She provided daily updates with pictures of Belle. Belle loved stayed with Makae and Makae made sure that Belle was loved on and comfortable. She even made Belle a little bandana! I will definitely be booking more stays with Makae in the future.”

“Laurel did drop in visits for our two cats. The house was clean when we returned and the cats were well taken care of. She sent pictures each time and was at the house on time at each visit. We look forward to having her watch them again in the future!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Blue Mound
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: We have owned & loved several dogs over the years including training 1 to be a viable therapy dog for nursing home visits to my mom. I am home most of the day, M-Sun and have the time to love and care for a dog, and make it feel at home, while dog parent(s) are away. Our dogs are considered our furry family members and I want your dog to feel that way too! My yard is fenced and our home is clean and safe! I ensure dog(s) can go out regularly for potty breaks, and I love walking them too.
“Thank you Kathleen for keeping my Brownee for daycare. I appreciate your prompt responses during her stay, the updates you shared, and your attentiveness to the different personalities of the pups in your care. We look forward to Brownee’s next visit.”
About: I have had animals around me as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, even chickens! I am very consistent with my own cats (I have 3). I am a stay-at-home wife so your furry friend will always have my attention. I have a feeding schedule, day time play and even an evening play to make sure they go to sleep happy. My cats enjoy being outside so I’m always outside with them. I ask that your pets are on a Flea and tick preventative as mine are. Our yard is also treated. My babies are 2 boys and a girl. My girl (Teeth) is very shy but my boys (Breezy and Buny) LOVE company and loves to greet new friends. My priority in the morning is to make sure everybody is fed. (Not like they let me forget since they are the ones who poke my face to wake me up). I make sure the water bowl is clean and filled up. I am a stay-at-home wife so your furry friends will have all my attention. I'm usually cleaning, baking, cooking, gardening, or going on strolls/gym time. My husband is also a HUGE animal lover so your baby/babies will be getting 2x the love when he gets home. Usually at night, it's game time, movie time, or just hanging around with the cats. The cats usually always sleep with us, but if not, they sleep on the couch. I live in a three bedroom house with a big backyard, but one of the rooms is no pet allowed. My husband and I have a shaded patio that is gated with chicken wire so our cat friends can also enjoy the outside. The patio is separated with a gate-door, so if we are hosting a dog they can enjoy at the same time with no problems. The extra room we have allows our guest/s to have their own room with their own window. They are free to walk through the house and make themselves comfortable.
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life! From jumping spiders to 150 pound dogs. I am studying in college right now to become a veterinarian. I have always wanted to work and care for animals, I also volunteer at many shelters nearby and used to foster! So if you need anyone to walk, feed, pet, or even just to drop in and check on your pets I can do that! I am currently working at a restaurant part time so I have plenty of time on my days off to play with your pets! I have three dogs of my own and one cat so I know that pet care is a daily need. In your home I can follow any instructions you need from times your pet needs to be woken up, fed, play, walks, given medicine, and even time set aside for training! For both cats and dogs I have trained both of my pets! Or if your pet is create trained, I can make sure all of your house rules stay that for your pet!
“Monica is Amazing! Our puppy gets anxious when is alone but she was really nice and patient with him. Also, we were updated with pictures and messages from Monica during the day. We highly recommend her.”
About: I provide loving, attentive care for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I excel at creating calm, joyful routines, ensuring exercise, companionship, and safety. House training? Patiently handled when needed. Every pup gets personalized love, attention, and care as if they were my own. Unless your dog has a special diet, kibble and treats will be provided 🐶 (if needed). Pet care is central to my daily and weekly routine. I structure my time around animal care, including my own pets, making availability and consistency a priority. Pets in my care are treated like family. I provide in-home care in a peaceful space with consistent routines, attentive supervision, affection, and respect for each pet’s unique needs.
“I had an outstanding experience. Her communication was excellent from start to finish—clear, consistent, and always reassuring. My dogs were so happy and relaxed when I got home, which tells me everything I need to know. She took amazing care of them, paid attention to all their little quirks, and made sure they were comfortable and loved the whole time. Truly a fantastic sitter. Highly recommend.”
“My puppy has been going to daycare with Emily for a few weeks and loves it! He is always excited to go and comes home happy and tired from playing with Emily’s sweet puppy. I highly recommend booking with Emily!”
“Ernest accepted a last-minute booking for Mylo and did an outstanding job. From the moment we met him, it was clear how attentive and observant he is. He quickly picked up on Mylo’s personality and routine, noting that he’s less interested in constant play and prefers to relax, nap, and simply hang out during the day—which is absolutely accurate. We were especially impressed by the little details. Mylo finished all of his food while in Ernest’s care, and Ernest kept us updated throughout the stay. What stood out most was how gently he handled Mylo when he was hesitant about being separated from us. Instead of pulling or dragging him along, Ernest calmly picked him up and made the transition as stress-free as possible. Moments like that show someone who genuinely enjoys and cares about animals. We felt completely comfortable leaving Mylo with Ernest and would absolutely book with him again. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog sitter.”
“Destiny was a great baby sitter for Chanel! She provided me updates & pictured throughout the day. I appreciate her taking such great care of Chanel today 🩷”

About: Hi! My name is Angelica and I’m a dependable animal lover based in the DFW area. I understand how important it is to feel your pets are safe, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away. I provide attentive walks, detailed updates, and lots of patience and care for every pet as if they were my own. And if it helps, I also speak Spanish for those that need the translation. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I'm very organized with scheduling and communication, so I make time throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding routines, play time, and giving pets the attention they need. I currently provide pet care through walks, drop-in visits, and in-home care at my client's home rather than boarding in my own home. During visits, I focus on making pets feel comfortable and care for in their familiar environment by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding, freshwater, walks or potty breaks, play time, cleaning up after pets, and giving them attention and companionship.
“Megan was awesome and very welcoming. It was my first time using Rover and she made sure my 11 week old puppy had a comfortable stay and also got to play with her own puppy. When I picked her up she was a lot more confident and I could tell she had a fun time. Great stay and we will book doggy day care again for sure.”
“Stephanie is absolutely amazing with our pup! She also has other sweet pups for ours to play with when he goes over. We are so thankful that she is able to take him in on days we work! She fed him, gave him plenty of exercise, and cuddles! And she sent us pictures and videos throughout the day of him playing with his pup friends. ? We will definitely go back to her in the future!”

“I am really impressed with Ana’s professionalism, her well-written daily updates, her personal judgment when walking Parker, and just the overall high level of care she provides for my GSP, Parker. I had zero stress knowing she was xseinf for him while I was away on my trip.”
About: I’ve owned and cared for animals since I was a child. I’ve had cats, dogs, a rabbit, turtle, and even ducks! Recently, I’ve done drop-in visits for my mom’s elderly dogs. I’d swing by and leash them to take them outside for a 5-10 minute walk and then administer medications and feed them dinner before leaving them situated the way my mom preferred. Taking good care of our animals is something I take pride in including feeding them, administering medicines, playing and loving on them, as well as letting them out to the bathroom or cleaning litter boxes. Pets can be messy but that’s not something I’m afraid of! I am currently homeschooling my three kids. So, my schedule is pretty flexible to stop by throughout the day. I can do morning, early afternoon and most evenings if needed. I don’t work a full time job so I have plenty of availability. I’d like to set up an initial meeting with the client so the animals can get to know me, as well as show me their routine. I will enter the home, being careful to close the door behind me and let the dog out to potty in the back, play for a 5-10 minutes, and let them back in the house. I can also take the dog for a walk if that’s preferred. Before leaving, I can check their water situation (feed if requested) and situate them to their owners preference. Upon leaving, I will ensure that all doors are locked behind me.
“Absolutely love the attention my baby Mildred was given. She is a fun-a-holic and Jennifer tuckered her out(not an easy thing to do. Very hyper puppy. We will highly recommend Jennifer to our friends and will definitely use her services again. Awesome pictures, she was very happy, that means a lot to me!! Julia Feves 503-803-4502”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and bearded dragons since I was 13 years old for my family, Neighbors and others in my apartment complex. I handled feeding the animals, walking, playing with them, and basic care routine. I also have two of my own cats. I’m comfortable with different pets of different sizes, personalities and energy levels. My pet care fits well into my routine. I work at an elementary school Monday through Friday until 4:00 PM, so I am available on weekdays starting at 4:30 PM for walks, drop ins, or sitting. I am fully available on weekends with flexible hours. During the summer and school holiday breaks, my availability is limited, as I follow the school schedule. I currently provide pet care in my clients’ homes to ensure pets stay comfortable in their own environment and routine. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home, as I live in an apartment and have two cats who do best without other animals in the space. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress free while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible

I treat mine and my friend’s dog like family and spoil them as much as possible. I do have experience with other people’s dog as I watched friends and family dogs when they go out of town. I have experience with high energy dogs as I have one myself so I can give as much exercise as needed. I work during the week 7a-3p. Available most weekends. I can come early morning or later in the night to work around your schedule. I live at home with 2 dogs. They are both very friendly love to play.

I can come and meet you and your pets first before we book or we can book and set up a meet and greet, I want to make sure you’re as comfortable as possible with me taking care of your babies for you! I am a very reliable and trustworthy person, I will follow your instructions on how to care for your pet in your home, whether it’s playing, feeding, cleaning or bathing, I will do whatever is needed to make sure your pet is happy and healthy for when you return home!
“Katherine is fantastic! I reached out to her last minute hoping she could walk my corgi and Aussie the following day while I was at work. She was able to accommodate both of their walking styles and sent pictures and updates throughout the walk. She has a great personality and is an outstanding communicator. I will most definitely use her again.”
“Princess Amelia loves her new dog walkers. They are punctual, very communicative, friendly and protective of my fur baby. They even make sure she doesn’t eat anything on her walks since nothing at all is nasty to Princess Amelia. My dog walkers for life thanks guys for taking care of my fur baby while in your care. Princess Amelia walks are 3days a week and she loves her walks and her dog walkers….thanks for the pictures I save them all!!!!”
About: I have worked in a well renowned and amazing shelter & animal rescue (no kill shelter) for 5 years. I’ve got plenty of experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve also got certifications in fear free animal training, along with helping train many dogs for Leader dogs for the blind. I’m recently moved to the area, and currently working part time. So I have a lot of extra free time, my time is very flexible. I consider animals family, so taking care of them properly how their family ask is very important in my eyes. So taking care of them will be followed directly as stated. 😊
“Kimberly is an outstanding doggy sitter. She took time from her very busy day to come and visit my precious Hana prior a couple of days prior to our scheduled service. On the appointment days she arrived on time to take Hana out for a walk around the neighborhood and then for some fun in the dog park. She constantly communicated with me on what my dog was doing and how she was behaving. She also sent several pictures of Hana. Hana is my first ever pet, so I always worry if I am doing something wrong. Kimberly not only put my mind at ease while she was walking Hana, but she also answered my questions and gave me tips about being a first-time dog owner. She really enjoys being with pets, and it shows when you talk to her. I am now her repeat customer and will stay that way as long as she has openings for Hana.”
“Sarah helped out when we needed our dog walked several days on short notice. She sent several photos each day and our dog looked really happy each time. The photos were great too. My wife and I joked that Sarah could have a future as a photographer ?”

“This was our first time using Rover app, so we were a little nervous leaving Bella while on vacation, however Andrea and Jerry made the experience and our vacation worry free with the updates and photos. They took great care of Bella, making sure to understand her routines and habits while also ensuring her their pup Loki and Bella got familiar with each other. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy our vacation to the fullest!”

She does have her own dog. The dog is very well behaved and not at all aggressive. There were no interaction problems for my cat.”
“Ericka and Robert were amazing! I had to leave for a trip and I left my dogs with them and didn’t worry about them once! They washed my doggies and even their harnesses and collars! I got plenty of updates and had communication with them all throughout my trip. I’ll definitely use them again!”

About: EXPERIENCE Professional experience in the dog boarding industry as well as 39 years of constant com*paw*nionship. I've only been 2 years of my entire life without a dog. A DAY IN THE LIFE OF MY DOGS My dogs live inside with me! They sleep at the foot of my bed on my bed (until I've had enough and nudge them off) and are employeed full time as my indoor shadow. It's a necessary expense!!! PERSONAL HISTORY/INSIGHT I'm a die-hard loyal companion to my pups bc they are to me first! Never surrendered a single one of my pets no matter the alternative road I faced! Moved and couldnt keep my dog? Didnt move. Approved on home under terms: No Dog, my reply, "my dog and me or deal breaker". I commit whole heartedly and for LIFE! How many people can say that and it be truth? I was the little girl who got untrusting strays to follow her home which I did by singing song from the little mermaid and Andrew Lloyd webber songs. <--yes...u read that right. They have always trusted me and warmed up to me extremely easily. WISDOM/RESILIENCE Growing up...a neighborhood dog almost ended my life and guess what....I learned a lot on what NOT to do and kept the bond strong. What happened to me didn't phase me. CONCLUSION I've always preferred the company of animals over people for many reasons. But don't judge me .... HIRE me. The friendship, respect, consideration and connection I can't help is of the absolute highest caliber. Period. I work from home and am extremely active. I'm an outdoorsy rebel who loves to explore the areas off the path. Hiking is how I stay going and sane. Dogs usually go with me. I care for them by being present and constantly engaged. I notice when they are laying on the floor and don't have something soft. I know the things to look for before a fight breaks out and I also know exactly how to get them to stop that does not risk either of the dogs or myself. *INSIDE THE HOME IS ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL WITH YEARS OF EXPERIENCE DOING JUST THIS...HIS PET IS ACTUALLY IN THE PHOTOS. AND HE CAN PROVIDE REFERENCES UPON REQUEST!
“Can’t begin to tell you how much we appreciate Julie watching over Bart and Bailey. It’s practically their seconds home judging how they react when we drive up. Today Julie went the extra mile when Mr. BART decided to get himself dirty. Thanks again Julie and we will be in touch soon. 🙂”
“Darren and his family took great care of Teddy! Darren made sure Ted took his allergy medicine, and we loved getting the pictures of the kids interacting with our pup! We would be happy to book with Darren again.”
“First time I ever left my baby with someone I did not personally know and was beyond happy! She exceeded all my expectations and made the whole experience worry free. My little dog had a blast and is now going to be extra excited I go on vacation!”
“Rocksy got along great with Susanne and her furry friends. We had to schedule last minute with a late evening drop off and pickup and Susanne was very accommodating. Great socialization and exercise, and responsive communication!”
“Very friendly, helpful and caring. Bunny enjoyed her time there. I am very appreciative of the communication and pictures sent while we were away. Highly recommend.”
“Andrea was great and professional through out the whole process of taking care of our boys. She sent many updates with pictures and videos, was responsive and had a big yard for them to play. Great experience overall.”
“Jonathan is AMAZING! He took such great care of my little ball of nervous energy, Lily. Such great communication…daily video updates and photos. Lil is very high strung in new environments and was accustomed to her previous sitter of 5 years. Jonathan handled her with ease. We definitely found our new go to person. Thank you Jonathan!”
