“Raven is the best! It was our first time leaving our pug with a sitter and she went above and beyond taking care of her. Before leaving our dog with her she took detailed notes on her routine and how to take care of her. She sent pictures throughout the day while she was with her and updated me on how she’s doing. Raven is very attentive and caring. I’m looking forward to having her watch our dog again!”
“This was my 2nd time to board Newman with Kelli, and just like the first time it was a great experience. Newman seems happy and comfortable going over there, and Kelli is very responsive and sends pics.”
“Zach took great care of my 2 elderly dogs. One needs regular medication and Zach was excellent in watching over him. I would absolutely board my pets with him again. Very attentive to questions and loved the constant photo updates he provided. 5 out 5 stars!”
“Jane was an absolute saint! She really loves dogs, and has a great home for watching your pup. Unfortunately, I was not aware that she was taking multiple clients and my dog needs a lot of individual attention. However, my dog was very well cared for, happy, and healthy when I arrived to pick her up. Jane did a great job updating me with regular photos and videos through the stay.”
“Megan was a great sitter! She was very professional and she spent lots of time with my pup. She sent me lots of pics and kept me updated with his activities daily. I will definitely be using her again when I need someone to watch Frank.”
“Craig and Melinda are wonderful. I feel comfortable and confident that my little guy will be cared for well. Plenty of attention, activities and good communication. Thank you”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my cat with Marquette. Her communication is excellent and my cat relaxed and got comfortable very quickly in her care. I definitely recommend!”
“I cannot recommend Stella and her daughter enough! We live two hours away, but after seeing the care and professionalism they provided for our two dogs, I won't go anywhere else. My dogs absolutely loved them. We are already planning to bring them back for our next trip!”
“Malisa was great! Sophie had such a great time playing with her dog, Paisley. Sophie was well taken care of and whenever I texted Malisa, she responded promptly. I highly recommend her and I plan to choose her again anytime I need someone to watch Sophie.”
“Pamela was great with my dog, Tucker. She treated him like her own and I knew he had a great time. She sent wonderful photos and updated me throughout my trip so I was never worried. I highly recommend her as a sitter on Rover! We will be using her again :)”
“Jocelyn is an awesome Rover. Her home is centrally located in Dallas and near a fenced dog park, which is perfect for play time even in the summer. She sent great pictures and updates both days, and communicating with her was super easy. Highly recommend her and hope to work with her again next time I need boarding!”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care my dog received! From the start, she was attentive, professional, and truly compassionate. She sent frequent photo updates, followed all of my care instructions, including food preferences and tips for managing my dog’s anxiety and remained open to any suggestions I had. My dog seemed so comfortable and happy during her stay, and I especially loved that she had a friendly companion to play with! The environment was clean, safe, and welcoming. It’s clear this sitter genuinely loves what she does. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Cynthia was great. Always responded quickly. My baby girl seemed to have a good time. My doggy took a poop as soon as we arrived to Cynthias and she took care of it quickly and didn’t mind at all. I’m hoping she’ll be available the next time I go out of town. Cynthia also had another dog on premise and Alizé got along with her perfectly. 10/10, definitely recommend.”
“Kendra was amazing! She was able to watch our pup with one day notice when we were in a bind which I was so thankful for. She sent us daily updates with photos of their day and took such good care of him. Would 100% use her again to watch him for us!”
“Megan was fantastic with our dog, Charlie! He seemed to really enjoy his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Megan was responsive, attentive, and kept us updated with frequent photos of Charlie having a great time. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. We truly appreciate the great experience and hope to book with Megan again soon!”
“We left our dog with Shawndreal while we were at the hospital giving birth. Our stay was complicated and unexpectedly lengthy, but Shawndreal was so accommodating, communicative, and easy to work with. It was so nice to not have to worry about our dog. Highly recommend her services and we hope to use them again some day!”
“Words cannot describe what incredible care Justin and Brent provided for our precious dog, Austin. Plans changed due to a loved one falling ill, and they were amazingly flexible and accommodating of a much longer stay at short notice. They were incredibly communicative, sent loads of photos and most of all, treated Austin with so much love and affection. He loved being with all the other dogs too and made lots of new friends! Can’t recommend them highly enough.”
“Lillian was amazing! Woody felt right at home with her and they got along perfectly. She was very responsive and so sweet towards him. I know my pup was in good hands with her and I didn’t have to worry at all. I highly recommend reaching out to Lillian, will definitely be using her again!”

“Lynn was great with my cat! My cat is nervous around strangers so he is pretty easy to take care of, but Lynn did a great job of updating me and sending pictures daily.”
“Rachel is amazing! I was really worried about leaving my cat while on vacation, she tends to be on the clingy side, but Rachel eased my mind and gave me lots of feed back of things I asked to keep an eye on and just funny moments she had, as well as lots of pictures! Thank you again”
“We recently moved to Texas and finding a good pet sitter was one of my biggest worries. I have 2 cats, one of which needs daily medication. We had our first out of town trip this weekend and Bethany was able to ensure that Mia got her medicine and sent some lovely pictures / updates. Would highly recommend!”
“hunter was awesome to work with!! super communicative and incredibly loving towards my cats. i got the greatest photos of everyone having a lovely time :) nothing like the peace of mind knowing my cats were well cared for and i came back to a clean home which always feels nice!! absolutely booking hunter again :)”
“Allison was very communicative and sweet to our kitties. Our cats can be difficult with separation anxiety while we’re away, but Allison went above and beyond to help with their needs. I’d recommend her and will definitely use her again! 😊”
“Saige did an amazing job watching our two fur babies while we were away! She definitely went the extra mile to let them outside, turn on bird tv, and give them extra treats/ brushes. Would highly recommend!”
“Geni was so attentive to my little Zhuri, who’s exceptionally greedy for cuddles while I was away for a week. I got lots of photos and updates daily. I appreciated that she was on top of potential concerns, too. I would comfortably have her visit Zhuri in the future.”
“This was my first time leaving my kitty with alone so I was a little skeptical, but Anna made it really convenient and easy for me to enjoy my time away. She was very accommodating with the care requests and provided multiple pictures and daily updates which I really appreciated! I would highly recommend her”
About: Although I’ve never had a cat of my own, I’ve cared for several cats belonging to friends and family over the years. I understand that cats can have very different personalities and comfort levels, so I’m happy to let each cat set the pace while I get to know them. I’m comfortable following established routines for feeding, litter box care, medication, playtime, and companionship. Whether your cat is outgoing and affectionate or more independent and reserved, I’ll respect their individual personality and make sure they receive attentive, consistent care while you’re away.
“Phenomenal sitter! So patient with my kitty and let her get comfortable. I always got photos and updates and she followed my directions perfectly. I will definitely be using Sidney again in the future :)”
“Adrienne has done drop ins on my cat several times and always does an awesome job! My cat loves her and she’s super communicative. Everything you could hope for in someone checking on your furry friends”
“Tiffany was amazing. My kitty was well looked after and even came out to visit Tiffany a little, which I absolutely didn't expect! I credit her calm and patient vibe with putting my cat at ease around a stranger. I would absolutely book with Tiffany again!”
“Maggie was the first Rover sitter I ever booked with, and I have been a repeat customer since. She is so easy to work with, and she goes above and beyond in all aspects. She is very communicative and intentional in her care for animals. I receive adorable pictures of my cat and very thorough updates each visit, so I always feel comfortable and trust that my animal is in incredible hands with Maggie. The litter box stays fresh, her bowls stay refilled and clean, and she spends her visits playing and getting to know your animal as much as they’ll allow. My cat once had a small accident outside the litter box and Maggie didn’t hesitate to deep clean the mess. I also once had to leave town for a last minute family emergency, and Maggie was incredibly understanding and helpful with scheduling visits If you’re a first time Rover user or frequently book on the app, I highly recommend Maggie.”
“Catherine was an absolute rock star sitter. She knows exactly what she’s doing and I could not have been at more ease while I was out of town. Definitely book with her!”
“Kelly was amazing! She was very attentive to detail and sent daily updates (with photos!) on how my cats were doing! I will definitely rebooking. You can trust your pets with Kelly ☺️”
“This was my second time to use Kyle while I was away and he did a fantastic job with my dog Kenzie who is 14. He’s very communicative and honest person. I know Kenzie feels safe with him! He takes awesome pics on the walks! Also turned on animals with music on my TV, to give Kenzie some noise in my apartment so she didn’t feel alone. Will definitely use again!”

“Jane is the sweetest and most attentive sitter! I feel so comfortable dropping our puppy off with her! My puppy is always SO excited when we pull up to her house which makes me happy.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion and experience with dogs. I started training and caring for dogs when I was just 10 years old and turned that love into a business at 16 by running a successful dog-walking service. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, always providing the utmost care and attention to their unique needs. From understanding the playful energy of puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs, I have the skills and experience to ensure every pupper feels loved, safe, and happy. Whether it’s training basic commands, keeping up with a high-energy pup, or offering extra TLC, I’m here to give your dog the best care possible! Pet care is my full-time focus, and I work from home, allowing me to dedicate 110% of my time and attention to the dogs I care for. My flexible schedule ensures that their needs—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just companionship—are always my top priority throughout the day. Because I’m home, I can provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love and engagement. This also allows me to adjust easily to your dog’s routine, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for as if they were at home with you. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I ensure the space is clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards like small objects or toxic plants. I provide plenty of comfy areas for rest and have secure outdoor spaces for safe playtime. I closely supervise pets during activities and always make sure they feel at ease in a calm, welcoming environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect. I follow the pet’s usual routine to maintain consistency and reduce any stress they might feel while their owners are away. I also stay vigilant about locking doors, securing gates, and keeping the pet safe during walks or outdoor time. In either case, I make communication a priority, providing regular updates, photos, and videos to reassure owners that their furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“Edmanuel and the Pupkulture team are an absolute dream for any pet parent. Knowing that my dogs are receiving the same level of care, attention, and thoughtfulness that I would give them myself is incredibly valuable and gives me real peace of mind when I’m away. Everything they do clearly prioritizes the dogs’ safety and well-being. My dogs have definitely let me know in the past when they weren’t happy with a daycare option, but with Pupkulture, it’s the complete opposite. They get genuinely excited when we arrive, and they come home happily exhausted, sleeping better than ever. The team is also consistently responsive, provides thoughtful updates and photos, and brings a level of kindness and professionalism that truly sets them apart.”
“Emerald was great with Otto! She was able to help me out last minute when my other dog care fell through, and was very communicative and accommodating. She let me come over early with Otto and meet her sweet dogs and kiddo to make sure everyone got along ☺️ Otto came home happy—he was in good hands!”
“Marvin had such a fun day care with Brette, her boyfriend and Ellie (a super friendly golden retriever). I knew my little munchkin was going to be in good hands as soon as i met with Brette and Ellie in the morning at drop off. She invited me inside and Marvin and I felt welcomed in their home. I received a good amount of pictures (and a video) throughout the day which was very comforting for me. We will definitely be back for more loving care and play time! 5 stars 🌟”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for pets for friends and family. I have had and been around different animals my whole life. I’m naturally very attentive and particular when it comes to care. I pay close attention to behavior, comfort, and making sure your dog actually feels okay while you’re away. I understand that every pet is different, so I take time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether your pet is energetic or more shy, I adjust to their needs and make sure they get attention, patience, and proper care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and keep owners updated for peace of mind. I also currently have a senior dog with health problems the past few years. I’ve chosen to take her off of a previous owners hands in these later stages of her life and take care of her as my own. I’ve done what I can to keep her with me as long as possible so I am even more meticulous because of that! I have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening as well as weekends. I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine and make sure they’re well cared for, comfortable, and not left alone for long periods as I am usually home. My home is clean, safe, and pet-friendly, and I make sure all pets are supervised and comfortable at all times. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I’m able to separate or crate pets if needed to ensure everyone stays safe and stress-free.
“Shuai is absolutely amazing! His care for my fur baby gives me the time to focus on my in office days. Leaving her with anyone in general is always hard for me, but he makes it easy and anxiety free- knowing she’s in protective hands. He’s beyond responsive and reliable. Highly recommend.”
“My husband and I were in Dallas for Valentines day and we brought our two dogs for our stay, however we overlooked the details on one of our plans and the time we had to check out of our Air BnB. Tyler was gracious enough to sit both of my dogs in short notice and they had a blast. If we're ever in need of sitting services in Dallas again, we will absolutely be going with Tyler!”
About: I have had & dog sat multiple dogs of all sizes for my entire life in addition to regular foster & volunteer work! Helping animals is a passion of mine and I will make sure your baby gets the best care and attention while you're away. I've fostered multiple dogs with DAS and adopted my last foster, Josie (the first dog photographed). She is a 50lb ~2yr old pup that loves to play and will keep your dog occupied! Prepare to have storage on your phone, because you'll be getting lots of photos of our adventures. I typically always have someone home during the day and recently moved to a townhome with a yard for play space and easy potty breaks. I always walk my pups in the morning and evening with a mid-day potty break when necessary. Knowing how important routine is, let me know how YOU care for your dog so we can mimic the same routine to maximize their comfort! My dog, Josie, is in her crate when I am away and at night, but this is not a requirement for other dogs in our home!
“Gabriella was so wonderful! She took such good care of my little dog and was so thoughtful in sending me picture updates. My pup is a little finicky (she's a chihuahua so she comes by it naturally ha) and Gabriella was so patient with her and gave her all of the attention she needed.”
About: Lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and more—I treat every pet like family. I have a small dog of my own (Brio, 11 years!) and understand how important it is to trust who’s caring for your furry companion. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and value timely communication, providing high quality care and your trust in me. Some of my offerings include at least 3 walks and check-ins daily, (depending on the need) and daily boarding and doggy day, in a safe,clean, pet-friendly home. I also like to keep the pups clean after every walk by wiping them down fully, including their paws, with fragrance free pet wipes. I generally follow a consistent schedule where I keep your furry babies well-fed, active throughout the day via walks or indoor/outdoor play time and comfortable. While I stick to a consistent schedule, I'm happy to accomodate to any special care or routine needs. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions or to see if I'm a good fit for your pet—I’d love to meet them! I offer daily boarding and doggy day-care in a safe, clean, pet friendly home and multiple walks/ check-ins a day as needed. I typically follow a consistent schedule providing meals 3x a day, or as needed, followed by a walk and lots of play time throughout the day. I also like to keep your pups clean throughout the day by wiping them down fully, including their paws, after every walk. While I stick to a consistent schedule, I'm happy to accomodate to any special care or routine needs. My dog, Brio, is friendly with other dogs and can keep your furry baby some company. My home is fully equipped with beds, a crate, food bowls, toys, and a playpen if needed. Pets are welcome on the couch, and we love giving plenty of cuddles and playtime to keep them happy and comfortable.
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so glad I found Mandee! I felt so comfortable leaving my fur baby with her for the weekend, and enjoyed getting updates and pictures of him having fun with some other little pups she kept at the same time. I will definitely continue to use Mandee!”
“This was my first time to use Rover...it was a wonderful experience thanks to Lori! Throughout the day Lori sent me pictures and comments regarding how and what Roxy was doing. When I picked up Roxy, her tail was wagging nonstopped. I am so happy with the whole process I had with Lori❣️”
About: I grew up with dogs and previously had one of my own, so caring for them feels very natural to me. I genuinely love animals, and when a dog is in my care, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priority. Because I work from home with a flexible schedule, I can be present throughout the day and keep routines consistent, whether that means meals, potty breaks, playtime, walks, or medications given at the same time each day. I know how important consistency is for dogs, especially when they are staying somewhere new, and I do my best to make them feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for. I can’t currently have a dog of my own full-time because my work sometimes requires travel, which is part of why pet sitting means so much to me. I treat every dog in my care with the same attention, affection, and responsibility I would give my own. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so pet care fits very easily into my day. I can be home throughout the day for play time, feeding, bathroom breaks, and walks rather than leaving pets alone for long stretches. Your pet’s comfort and safety would be my priority. I live in an apartment, but I have two fenced-in patio areas for safe outdoor time, and I can also provide supervised walks and activity during the day. I’m careful about following each pet owner’s routine and instructions so their dog feels as comfortable and settled as possible. I’m also happy to send updates and photos while your pet is with me. I know it can feel nerve-wracking to trust someone else with your pet, so I carry pet-care insurance through Pet Sitters Associates for added peace of mind. My coverage applies to the services I offer, including sitting, walks, drop-ins, and boarding at my apartment, and includes expanded coverage for client pets plus additional property/bond coverage.
“Claire was phenomenal in caring for my Belgian Malinois and really came through when I found out I needed a sitter literally at the last minute. Flexible to work with and dependable. I highly recommend.”
About: Hiiiiiii! I’m Omoniyi, a dog mom and experienced pet sitter who genuinely loves making animals feel safe and comfortable. I’ve taken in dogs from friends and family since I was in college! I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities and routines, and I know how important it is to have someone you can actually trust with both your pet and your home because of my Gigi girl. I’m attentive to: feeding schedules, walks, medications and instructions, favorite toys, quirks, cuddle preferences, and all the tiny preferences that make your pet feel at home. I work remotely, which means I’m able to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care rather than leaving them alone. I especially enjoy house sitting because it lets pets stay comfortable in their own environment. I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want someone to show mine. You can expect regular updates, plenty of photos, and communication that never leaves you wondering how things are going. And yes, the Maltipoo in my profile photo is mine 🤍 She will be your dogs new bestie if we’re doing any in house boarding! I work from home so it’s pretty ideal. I would love the company! I have a very flexible schedule and can be sure to walk/feed/play at the right times each day. I currently live alone and some added companionship would be great! I live in a pet friendly complex. There are two dog parks, and plenty of pet perks. I have open space in my apartment, and it’s pretty pet proof. I had to take in my brothers golden retriever for a time, and it worked out pretty well!
About: I have had my own pup since July 2020 & been able to care for friends and family’s pups for the past 5 years living in Dallas. I am completely flexible to your dogs needs and will be sure they get all the special love and attention while you are away. I live near many parks and even have my own private backyard! This makes your dogs stay extra special with easy accessibility to a potty and fresh air! I currently work in a hybrid role. This is very flexible and if I am dog-sitting I would be home instead of in the office I live in a one bedroom apartment that has a private backyard that is fenced around all sides. I also have a pup of my own! She is a friendly shitzu named Georgie and just turned 4 years old. The yard is easy access for quick potty breaks and access to the sidewalk for long walks.
“10/10 recommend Kim. Book her now! She updated me frequently throughout the day and sent me pictures of my dog Brownie. My dog has a medical condition that makes him susceptible to infections and she took extra precautions of wiping his paws off after being outside. Brownie had a fun day with Kim and we will be booking with her again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him 💚”
About: I’m not a full-time pet sitter or trainer, but I’ve had dogs my entire life and still occasionally pet sit for my parents. I love all animals, though I’ll always have a soft spot for small dogs! My priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m also a great communicator and will keep you updated with plenty of photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I work from home full time, so I can play with and watch your pet while I’m on calls! I can also take your pet on walks a couple of times a day. I live in an apartment, but there is a potty area downstairs for easy access, and I have a patio / pee pads for emergencies. I also live in a great neighborhood, and can take your pet on walks throughout the day.

About: Ive grown up caring for dogs since I was a kid. 8 years ago I had the pleasure of becoming a dog mom to a German Shepherd. I will often also take care of my brothers herding dog at the same time. I am used to caring for two large dogs at the same time including walking them twice a day. I often dog sit for family and friends over the last 6 years, including dogs and cats. My own GSD struggles with separation anxiety and social anxiety so I have become really good over the years of prioritizing walk times that will ease his stress. I am happy to accommodate to any time a fur baby may need their walk times adjusted to reduce other animal interaction. My GSD is around 100lbs and often gets excited, so I am more than able to handle any size dog that may get excited for anything even squirrels! I am a full time grad student but around that schedule I have time most mornings and evenings to walk and play with all animals. I am open to animal sitting most nights depending on my exams for that week. I can easily crate dogs due to experience crating my own dogs. I am comfortable feeding all diets to any animals, giving baths, walks, etc.
“Yevgenia does a great job with my puppy, Hank! She and Sacha took the time to get to know us ahead of time and it was clear that she loved animals. After her visit, she messaged me a picture and a report of her visit. Hank loves when she comes to help him! She's great!!”
“Our dog absolutely loves Zoe. I am pretty sure he is secretly hoping we leave town again soon. She was so easy to communicate with and we loved seeing the photos from their walks. Zoe is the best!”
“Carrin was so awesome taking my pup for a walk! She took so many pictures and gave me detailed information on how it went! She is very kind and I can tell she treats all of her clients as her own pets! Looking forward to booking with her again!”
“By far the easiest and the best we have encountered when needing help with our big golden. Very detail oriented and always communicates with great detail. You can really tell he cares for your pup as if it was his own! 1000% recommendation from my wife and I!”
“My Dog is a whole new dog! I knew She was behaving poorly because She was not getting enough walks. 2-3 extra walks a week are making such a difference! Allison is very reliable and Dolce’ loves her!!!”
“My little Willow loves her walks with Priscilla! Such a help to know she gives her some outside time and cuddles in the middle of the workday. She is so patient and sweet, and gives a great overview of each walk. I highly recommend Priscilla for any of your pet care needs!!”
About: I have 3 animals currently, and they have a wide range of needs. I am experienced with senior dogs (mine is 13 & I had a 15yr old), large dogs (I have a great dane), non-sociable dogs (mine are very picky about other dogs), and ones who need medications. I have experience with puppies as well. I am currently at home 24/7, so I am available any time needed for care! I will gladly come love on your pets and make sure they feel that their needs were met while you were gone! Give me the instructions, and I will follow it to a T! My 3 animals have a lot of specific instructions for being taken care of, so do not worry if you think you have a lot!
“Elyssa has been great. She was able to meet up prior to Max's first walk and they definitely clicked. Thanks for walking Max! He's excited to get more walks from you soon!”
“Kyle, did a great job walking Ella. He was able to accommodate short notice. He took my dog for a run and played frisbee with her which she loves. I’d highly recommend him!”
About: I've had dogs of my own for 30 years and have experience with both puppies and seniors. I don’t currently have any pets so I am excited to welcome some new furry friends! I live in Uptown and have access to an enclosed outdoor dog area for fresh air, playtime and potty breaks when appropriate. I am familiar with local animal hospitals for emergencies. I love to walk around the block or do longer walks at Turtle Creek Park. I’m an artist with a home-based studio, so I’m home throughout much of the day and have a very flexible schedule on both weekdays and weekends - last minute bookings are welcome. • 30 Minute Dog Walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your pup the exercise, fresh air, and mental stimulation they need during the day. • 30 Minute Drop-Ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of snuggles to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away. • My Basic House-Sitting service includes staying overnight with your pup so they have company and comfort in their own home, along with daytime care every 4-6 hours for potty breaks, meals, playtime, and cuddles.
About: Growing up on a farm, I was around all kinds of animals and helped care for them. I’ve raised cats on my own for 15 years and often help my friends with their cats and dogs when they are away from home. I work full-time but have the flexibility to work remotely and make my own schedule outside of a couple of days when I’m in the office. Most of the time, I’ll be unavailable on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Understanding that every pet is different, I like to learn more about the pet from the owner and have one-on-one time with the animal to make sure we’re both comfortable with each other. Our trust and safety is my number one priority.
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have frequently cared for those of my friends and family members, including young pets. Coming from healthcare also gives me unique experience in caring for others and knowing how to manage health complications. My fiance and I have cared for his own cat who requires insulin for diabetes. I am a work from home professional with a log of flexibility within my schedule to support you. My fiance also has a hybrid role. I have experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I am able to walk pets of all sizes and care for them inside the home, whether it is crated or outside a crate. I have also raised pets with access to a backyard and deep pool so am comfortable maintaining pet safety both indoors and outdoors. Being a dietitian, I am knowledgeable with nutrition and food when it comes to pets and humans if needed!
About: I grew up with dogs, and since leaving home, I have loved dog sitting. I’ve been trusted by various families and neighbors to stay in their home overnight to feed, walk, and play with their dogs while traveling! I just finished graduate school at UTD, and I’m in the process of applying for jobs. While I wait for a job opportunity, I have plenty of time to provide the care and attention your pets need! I am willing to follow any directions/expectations you provide. I can walk the dog, provide medications via treats, let the dog out in the yard, clean up after the dog, etc!

“This was my 2nd time to board Newman with Kelli, and just like the first time it was a great experience. Newman seems happy and comfortable going over there, and Kelli is very responsive and sends pics.”
“Zach took great care of my 2 elderly dogs. One needs regular medication and Zach was excellent in watching over him. I would absolutely board my pets with him again. Very attentive to questions and loved the constant photo updates he provided. 5 out 5 stars!”
“Jane was an absolute saint! She really loves dogs, and has a great home for watching your pup. Unfortunately, I was not aware that she was taking multiple clients and my dog needs a lot of individual attention. However, my dog was very well cared for, happy, and healthy when I arrived to pick her up. Jane did a great job updating me with regular photos and videos through the stay.”
“Megan was a great sitter! She was very professional and she spent lots of time with my pup. She sent me lots of pics and kept me updated with his activities daily. I will definitely be using her again when I need someone to watch Frank.”
“Craig and Melinda are wonderful. I feel comfortable and confident that my little guy will be cared for well. Plenty of attention, activities and good communication. Thank you”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my cat with Marquette. Her communication is excellent and my cat relaxed and got comfortable very quickly in her care. I definitely recommend!”
“Malisa was great! Sophie had such a great time playing with her dog, Paisley. Sophie was well taken care of and whenever I texted Malisa, she responded promptly. I highly recommend her and I plan to choose her again anytime I need someone to watch Sophie.”
“Jocelyn is an awesome Rover. Her home is centrally located in Dallas and near a fenced dog park, which is perfect for play time even in the summer. She sent great pictures and updates both days, and communicating with her was super easy. Highly recommend her and hope to work with her again next time I need boarding!”
“Cynthia was great. Always responded quickly. My baby girl seemed to have a good time. My doggy took a poop as soon as we arrived to Cynthias and she took care of it quickly and didn’t mind at all. I’m hoping she’ll be available the next time I go out of town. Cynthia also had another dog on premise and Alizé got along with her perfectly. 10/10, definitely recommend.”
“We left our dog with Shawndreal while we were at the hospital giving birth. Our stay was complicated and unexpectedly lengthy, but Shawndreal was so accommodating, communicative, and easy to work with. It was so nice to not have to worry about our dog. Highly recommend her services and we hope to use them again some day!”
“Lillian was amazing! Woody felt right at home with her and they got along perfectly. She was very responsive and so sweet towards him. I know my pup was in good hands with her and I didn’t have to worry at all. I highly recommend reaching out to Lillian, will definitely be using her again!”
“Carla was a fantastic find for our elderly dog, Ellie. She kept us updated with daily pictures and took excellent care of Ellie. We’ll definitely be using Carla again!”
“We would recommend Daniel to take care of your pups! He was super kind to our dogs and gave great photo and video updates. One of our dogs needed to be given medication everyday and we forgot the peanut that we normally give him with the meds. Daniel was gracious even to let us use his peanut butter and was diligent about giving our dog his meds according to our schedule. Great energy all around!”
“Great experience with Jeffrey. He was very flexible with pickup and drop-off times, sent regular photo updates, and most importantly Chloe seemed completely relaxed and like herself when I picked her up. I could tell she was comfortable and well cared for. Would definitely book again!”
“Stacy was absolutely awesome!! Her dog and Geoff got along very well and Geoff got some much needed play time. Stacy is obviously very much a dog lover herself. I would absolutely without hesitation recommend her. I will be contacting her again in the future. She sent me videos of the dogs playing together and texts and pics letting me know that Geoff was OK.. Thank You Stacy for making my trip to the beach that much more enjoyable!!”
“Chaka is absolutely fantastic! She looked after Zoey while I was away on business and provided incredible care. I loved getting the daily check-ins and photo updates—it really put my mind at ease. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Cairo and her husband, Philip were AMAZING with Murphy. To start, they accepted a very short notice sitting request and were flexible right away. Lots of pictures shared exercise given, and he was such a happy boy! Murphy can be a high energy handful as a puppy but they were so amazing. He was sad to come home and leave them and Luna! Murphy would LOVE to come stay again if needed. Thanks again!”
