Personalized care for your dog or cat - Burke

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm where we had horses, cows, goats, dogs, cats, chicken, peacocks, and emus. My family has one dog right now, Oreo. I work a full time job Mon-Fri but I’m off on the weekends. My girls and I would enjoy loving on your fur babies while your away. I have a good sized fenced in back yard and a puppy for your pet/s to play with. I will follow any directions you may have for your fur baby.

“Dolce is truly a blessing in every way. She always showed so much care and love for our cat. She returned messages promptly and was always so kind in every interaction. I would highly recommend her to everyone.”

“I wish I could give twenty stars! Callum and his girlfriend are incredible, they went above and beyond to care for my cat. Some unforseen setbacks came up with scheduling on my end, but they took everything in stride and were able to adapt at a moment's notice. So easy to work with and fantastic communication. Can't recommend them enough, they really came through when I needed someone responsible and dependable.”

About: I have been in the dog world since I was 9 years old — I worked with shelter dogs with foster care, medical treatment, and dog training with dogs from puppies to senior age. I raised Toy Fox Terriers for dog shows (like you see on TV) and sports! I care for my two Toy Fox Terriers, one who is a show dog and sports dog and the other who is a service dog. I follow all of the guidelines and rules that pet clients give to me. I make sure that there’s no open doors without a leash on or a gated yard, no food or destructible items are left unattended, pay attention to schedules, and closely monitor for any health issues or concerns that might arise!

About: Im responsable in my care and love for both animals and people. I have 4 years of experience with helping family and friends I can do puppy training but I will need a list of what commands are already being taught. I will give senior dogs lots of care and love. Really the only downside is that I live in Etoile 30minutes out from lufkin I can do pick up and drop off for additional fees. I can also groom a dog for an additional fee. I have college Monday through Thursday but from Friday to Sunday i am available. I won’t be able to work holidays such as Christmas,Valentine's day, July fourth ect… I live on lake SamRayburn with a very big unfenced yard. whether or not a leash is needed can be discussed I just feel as though it would be safer. My house environment is docile and friendly. We have hard wood flooring along with plenty of space to runaround for a small dog. There are two pets in the house an orange tabby male cat named tyson (he is mainly outside) and a seiner Maltopoo female dog named coconut both are good with other dogs. I will take into account safety for your dog by having them on a leash when out if it is preferred (but i will probably still use the leash just for safety) if walking near water the dog will be watched with a close eye. And bathing will be available as well for additional fees.

“Ashley was great with my cat Ethel! I could tell that she was very well taken care of through Ashley's updates and photos. She really took the time to play with and love on Ethel. I would absolutely recommend Ashley!”

“As always, very patient and conscientious with my kitties. I appreciate Jennifer’s thorough reports and good decision making when I’m not available.”

About: I have experience with police K9 trainers and aiding/assisting in the delivery of 2 separate litters of puppies. Ive pet sat for friends who have small dogs, large dogs, puppies, and cats. I’m willing to help with whatever your furry friend needs to live a happy healthy life! Currently working on going back to college full time, but that will not be until Spring. I have my own pets to care for so I’d like to stay home between the hours of 5pm to 7am. Other than that, I’m free whenever needed! If my client does not have a fenced in yard, I have no problem leashing and walking all sized dogs. (I have experience with horses so big dogs are no problem). If your dog needs enrichment I have no problem taking them on a trip to the dog park if that’s something my client is comfortable with. If medication is needed for your pet, I have no problem helping administer said medications. I’m very time oriented so medicine administration will not be missed. I can also insist in basic training (sit, lay down, stay, leave it, etc) if needed. I have no problem with high energy pets and will help with playtime/exercise to calm that energy.

“Kellie had great communication from beginning to end. She is dedicated and was great with Miss Kitty. And she was available last minute over the holiday. It was so nice to not worry about my fur baby while we were out of town. I would definitely recommend her for future stays.”

About: I am very experienced in pet care. I have always had a love for animals. Whether your pet requires special care and or has special needs. I provide the upmost care for any pet. I also do some grooming on the side and or just a simple bath or clipping of the nails. Any other pets that I have watched, I care for them as if they were my own. I always make sure they have clean water. I will always make sure that they are fed on schedule. I take them for walks frequently which is usually every hour. Your pet will be returned bathed and clean. You can count on me to take care of your pet. I am reliable and attentive. I hope that I can help you with your pets with whatever they may need. If you book with me or are thinking about booking with me, I do ask a lot of questions, only because of the safety of your pets and mine. I do want plenty of communication. Whether if you have any questions or if I do. THANK YOU :) I work weekdays and off every weekend. I get an hour lunch break so I walk all my boards during my break. I am usually off work by 5ish. I treat every board and drop in as if they were my own pet. I always try to make sure that your pet is as comfortable as possible. I tend to spoil my boards and/or my drop ins. I do not discriminate against any breed. I love them all equally.

About: If I could pick one thing that seperates me from other walkers/sitters, it would be that I genuinely have a strong passion and connection to animals. I know all the DO'S and DON'TS when it comes to taking care of a pet. I have a dog of my own and I love and care for him like he's my child. I know not to give him chocolate, grapes, raisins and to keep him away from hazards like antifreeze, oil spills, dead animals, trash, poisons and other dogs feces. I'm also very aware when it comes to the details of an animals behavior and partake in fast acting solutions when it comes to avoiding conflict between them. I could say with a full heart that your pet would be comfortable, feel loved and safe under my care. :) I currently am available anytime for drop-ins and/or walks M-F and have full availability on weekends unless I have otherwise marked "not available" on my availability calender. :) At this moment, I am not currently available for overnight house/pet sitting, but I'm here for the rest! I normally take the pet/pets outside to go potty first thing, give treats, give attention, give love, feed, distribute supplements/medication if needed, fill water, play with toys, take photos for my client, walk, pick up doggy poo, scoop/change the litter box and clean up any messes that are made while the client is away.

About: Hi! I’m an educator who loves animals. When I moved to the area I used Rover for my own fur baby. It was such a positive experience that I decided to sign up as a sitter! I know how I want and expect sitters to treat my baby boy and I will do the same for your pet. I’ve always been the “go-to” pet sitter for friends and family. I am willing to travel out of the designated region for long term stays. I can make arrangements to meet your needs, including travel for longer stays. Let me know your pet care needs. I will make it happen. I am able to board in my home or yours. I’m available for drop in’s and walks. I am sure to learn you and your pets’ preferences. Prices are negotiable based on need.

About: Not only have been a pet owner for my whole life (cats and dogs both), many of my friends and family members have trusted me to provide care or pet sitting to their furry friends throughout the year a well because they know I genuinely enjoy animals and will care for them well. I have open and flexible scheduling opportunities as I am looking to work into full time pet-care, if you have a need, I can likely make it work any day or time. For in-home pet care, I am set up with a safe indoor environment for small dogs. At the moment I cannot care for large/outside dogs within my home but am happy to visit your home multiple times in a day to care for your animals.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 13 yrs old. Friends and family members have relied on me to care for there dogs and cats when they aren’t around. I have plenty of time on my hands due to the fact that I only take online classes. So most of my days are always free including weekends! I am loving and caring towards any Dogs or Cats. I live in an apartment that has a dog park. I also like to keep the Owner updated and send them pictures!
