“Melissa and Roy did an amazing job taking care of Jojo! They kept me updated the entire time which gave me so much peace of mind. They made sure he got all his medicine on schedule and treated him with so much care and attention. I could tell he felt comfortable and well loved while I was away. I would absolutely trust them with JoJo again! ❤️”

They always send us pictures and keep us posted about our pet. They also let us know of the other pets that would be there at the time. I would definitely recommend Leslie and Jonathan!”
“Keri was extremely accommodating and professional during scheduling and throughout our fur baby’s stay. You can tell she knows her K9s and really loves them all. We had a rough start introducing our pup to hers, but Keri ensured our pup was comfortable and even noticed her needing extra privacy at times. She also gave us daily updates, pics and videos of her which put us at great ease!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our boys while we were away! You always make our trips a little less stressful knowing they are in good hands. Thank you!!”

They offer plenty of playtime (even for my old, sometimes grumpy pug) and are extremely flexible with drop-off, pick up, and dietary/medical needs. Good communication and daily updates. I was extremely comfortable with them taking care of my dog and was completely at ease while away for the weekend. Would definitely book them again, if they would take Brady Quinn in again! :)”
“Johanny was so incredibly kind and flexible when I needed someone to take care of my pup VERY LAST MINUTE while I was already out of town. I had a family emergency and my friend couldn’t take care of him anymore so I rushed to find someone late at night and Johanny was quite literally the only one willing to take him in at such last minute. We are very appreciative and THANK HER a million times over. All was well upon our return.”

Definitely booking with them again. Thank you for taking such good care of her 😊”
“I’ve just collected my doggie from Janae. He is happy and well. From start to finish the whole process was smooth and easy. This was the first time I’ve had to leave Taz for more than a day or two and he was well cared for during his stay with Janae who I highly recommend.”
“Kristine was simply amazing! She was able to pick/drop off our baby and was very sweet! She also sent us photos and kept let us know how she was doing Highly recommend her.”
“Geneva and Edward took wonderful care of our girls! We have one that’s all energy all the time and one that is timid and scared of everyone. They were patient and caring with both of them. We are new to the area and were nervous about finding someone to leave our pups with, but this seemed to be the perfect fit. They have large spaces inside and out for them to run and play. Can’t recommend them enough! We’ll definitely be calling again soon!”

“Terri is an awesome lady. Yeti & I think she hung the moon. Yeti & I went over last night & met Terri & her fur team & we left there so excited about our Doggy Day Care time today. Yeti was there early this morning & stayed all day. I am absolutely sure he had a blast with all of them & the new experience. I received pictures of my little man playing & being very adventurous & I received a report on what all he did. It was so awesome & very comforting. He barely made it home before falling asleep. Yeti will be going back to play with Terri, LeRoy, Dex, Gator & Big Red. What a wonderful team. ???”
About: I am a dog trainer for a reputable national company, looking to fill my life with even more dogs! I have 5+ years of experience caring for dogs in my home and carry liability insurance. If you send you dog to stay with me, they will be provided with a fun, structured and safe environment and just may learn something new while here! I am a full time dog trainer that only does board and trains (dogs come to live in my home), so work from home and already have a very structured schedule of potty breaks, walks and training time scheduled throughout my day! Your dog will be cared for like they would be at home! I am very focused on safety with any dog that comes into my home. Dogs are crated at night and when not being supervised. I do have two dogs of my own, both are extremely social, so if your dog is social, they will be allowed play time! If your dog is dog selective or does not like other dogs, I can easily accommodate your pup as well and will provide them with plenty of separate attention without other dogs around. I do structured pack walks once a day, and individual walks for unsocial dogs or owners that would prefer their dog be walked separately from a pack. Boarding client dogs will get a minimum of 4 potty breaks per day in my fenced yard, at least one walk, and fed on their regular schedule per owners instructions.

About: I am a woman in my late 50's, (a mom and a grandma) who has been taking care of "critters" of all types for over 20 years, between Texas, and my home state of Minnesota. I am basically available all the time since I am retired from my career field, in Nutrition, and do this full-time now. I have done pet sitting, on the side, even while working in my career field, as animals have always been my passion. My place is in the country and very pet friendly. I have a small Chihuahua mix, a standard Dachshund, and a shepherd mix, who are all quite friendly. Your pet can be immersed with mine, or kept in a separate, fenced area; whichever works best for your pet. All can be confined as to provide your fur baby plenty of tlc and attention.

I only ask that you provide the food and treats your dog is used to; this will avoid any stomach upset from different foods.

I also provide pet sitting services to further leverage my passion for animal care. I offer loving care, walks, playtime, and medication administration, ensuring your pet feels safe and happy in their own home. My fiancee and I have 3 dachshund mixes that are all seniors now that we love like they are our children. *Regarding house sitting requests: While I will ensure your pet's needs are fully met, including regular feeding, walks and playtime, please note that I will not be staying at your house 24/7. Rest assured, I will visit multiple times a day to check on your pet and provide the necessary care. I'm a vet tech who works relief all over the DFW area so every week is a little different and my weeks may vary slightly on availability however I will consistently update my calendar to reflect when I am available. I air on the side of caution when it comes to my fur babies and I will advocate and care for them like my own.

About: I have two large breed dogs, and I can train dogs to do basic commands. I have taken care of animals ranging from rabbits and goats to horses. I have much experience with senior cats. I have cared for a cat for 17 years who was blind, and I just had to put down my 15 yr old cat due to thyroid issues for which I gave her meds twice a day. I have also bottle fed baby animals and had to assist one of my dogs when she had a litter of 11 puppies, which I cared for on my own. My only job right now is caring for my two dogs and my cat!

I can't bring other animals into my home as I already have 3 pets.
About: I have been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds ranging from Labradors to German Shorthairs and Mastiffs to Miniature American Shepherds. No matter the size, energy level, or special needs you can trust your pet to me. I personally have bred, whelped, and raised two litters of puppies. I am confident in assisting in any potty training of puppies as well. Additionally, having three dogs of my own I know how difficult it can be to leave your dogs in someone else's care. I am very engaged with you during anytime I'm with your dog so you know how they're doing. I work remote and my schedule is very flexible. For the most part I have the ability to set my own schedule. The biggest benefit to me would be to schedule your time with your pet in advance so that I'm able to block that time on my work schedule. I make sure that my pets and the pets that are entrusted into my care are comfortable and content. In order to achieve this I use a variety of tools and tricks such as calm exercise, interactive play, and enrichment activities. I give as much love and attention as they desire without overstimulating or stressing them out. I pay close attention to any indications of stress or other ailments and keep the owners aware of all potential challenges.

Our animals get treats around 4 everyday and are on a consistent feeding schedule (if we slack a little they definitely remind us). Animals are allowed on our furniture, so they get constant cuddles when we’re on the couch. I am very respectful of the animals boundaries and like to get to know them a little before jumping into care.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life, so working with animals comes naturally to me. I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, love, and attention to the little details that make them feel safe and happy. Whether it’s sticking to a strict feeding routine, going on long walks, or just giving extra cuddles, I make sure each pet gets the care they deserve. I’m reliable, calm, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities—from playful pups to shy cats. You can count on me to keep your pets comfortable while you’re away. I work overnight shifts, so I’m available for about eight hours after I get off in the mornings, up until around 3 PM each day. I’m also free all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays! My schedule gives me plenty of time for walks and pet care—right after I head home to feed my own fur-babies, of course When walking dogs, I always make safety my top priority. I use secure leashes and harnesses, stay alert to surroundings, and avoid unsafe or overly busy areas. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort level, pace, and behavior to make sure every walk is safe and enjoyable. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so you always know your pet is in good hands.
About: I have had dogs since I was born, I was raised taking care of dogs. I love them so much and can’t wait to sit! I work a full time job, however it’s 4 days on, and 3 days off. The days I work I'm available evenings after 5:30. I currently don’t have any pets, but I have been raised taking care of animals. I was raised with dogs from the day was born until the day I moved out, most years of my life having multiple dogs at a time, even having 3 dogs at one point. I love being outside so I would always take the dogs on walks or just sit outside with my dogs.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old. This included watching dogs for neighbors and friends during the day and overnight, as well as watching our three family dogs when my parents needed a night off. I have been trusted to watch my neighbor's dogs, friend's dogs, and new coworker's dogs consistently. I have also quickly become a regular dog-walker for several neighborhood pups. I come from a home that treats their pets like part of the family and can guarantee that I will treat your sweet dog with detailed attention and care. I am a freelance writer who takes on several remote clients per month. My writing schedule is entirely remote. This makes my schedule highly conducive to watching and caring for your special pup! I have a car and am able to get to any location in the Dallas metro area or surrounding cities. I have stayed overnight to care for the dogs of my neighbors and friends and will take great care of your house. I grew up with small dogs and have a particular love for Malteses, Yorkies, and Bichon Frises. However, I have watched and walked dogs of all breeds and sizes including Labs, Retrievers, Poodles, and even a Bernese Mountain Dog.

“Melissa and Roy did an amazing job taking care of Jojo! They kept me updated the entire time which gave me so much peace of mind. They made sure he got all his medicine on schedule and treated him with so much care and attention. I could tell he felt comfortable and well loved while I was away. I would absolutely trust them with JoJo again! ❤️”
“Kelly was absolutely wonderful! I was really nervous about leaving my dog since he had been attacked the last time I boarded him in a kennel. Kelli was wonderful with Finn (&me!). I feel so much better knowing we can leave Finn where he’ll be cared for and be safe!”

They always send us pictures and keep us posted about our pet. They also let us know of the other pets that would be there at the time. I would definitely recommend Leslie and Jonathan!”
“Keri was extremely accommodating and professional during scheduling and throughout our fur baby’s stay. You can tell she knows her K9s and really loves them all. We had a rough start introducing our pup to hers, but Keri ensured our pup was comfortable and even noticed her needing extra privacy at times. She also gave us daily updates, pics and videos of her which put us at great ease!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our boys while we were away! You always make our trips a little less stressful knowing they are in good hands. Thank you!!”
“Johanny was so incredibly kind and flexible when I needed someone to take care of my pup VERY LAST MINUTE while I was already out of town. I had a family emergency and my friend couldn’t take care of him anymore so I rushed to find someone late at night and Johanny was quite literally the only one willing to take him in at such last minute. We are very appreciative and THANK HER a million times over. All was well upon our return.”
“Geneva and Edward took wonderful care of our girls! We have one that’s all energy all the time and one that is timid and scared of everyone. They were patient and caring with both of them. We are new to the area and were nervous about finding someone to leave our pups with, but this seemed to be the perfect fit. They have large spaces inside and out for them to run and play. Can’t recommend them enough! We’ll definitely be calling again soon!”
“It was our first time boarding with Sherry and she didn’t leave any room for us to worry. She was very attentive with our two dogs and sent pics/videos updating us throughout our vacation. She even offered grooming for the dogs which was a plus. I’d highly recommend Sherry if you are looking for someone to look after your pets while you’re out of town!”
“Mary Ellen did an awesome job of taking care of my dogs for a week! She was caring and sympathetic with my elder dog and also with my 5 yo border collie who had managed to get hurt the day before I dropped them off. She kept me well informed and up to date on how they were doing and sent lots of photos! I felt so comfortable leaving them with her so that I was never worried about how they were doing while I was gone. She always responded promptly to messages and was flexible on drop off and pickup times, which was very helpful. I would highly recommend her!!!!”

“I was so appreciative of the care Jennifer gave our Finnegan while we were on vacation. She was wonderful about giving us updates and making sure he was loved and cared for. Finn was so happy to be home, but you could tell he had had the time of his life. We will definitely use Jennifer and her family again when we travel.”
