“Our Winston loved his time with Kent and his family. He was treated like one of the family. Several updated to keep us from worrying about our boy also. Highly recommend!!”
“This was our first time boarding our dog. Reviews from previous clients and how willing Nicole was to answer any questions or concerns I had is what made us feel most comfortable in choosing her to care for our Ava. We received daily photos and updates which my kids looked forward to every day and helped ease their worries about being away from her. We highly recommend Nicole and look forward to working with her in the future!”
“Kelli was fantastic, she picked up our late booking & she was so informative & structured I knew exactly what to expect. She has two dogs of her own that were so kind and gentle with my pup. My dog was so very happy staying with them 💖”
“Melissa and Roy are absolutely amazing! This is the second time they have watched our dogs for us, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing that our dogs are so well taken care of, especially when one of our dogs has such high anxiety. When we pulled into their driveway, our dogs got so excited! We are so grateful!”
“Tons of shaded area to run around in the back yard! We have a very timid pup and they took extra measures to ensure she was safe and felt secure with regard to the other dogs. The dogs were kept inside at night safe and comfy. And they ensured none of the dogs were outside in the heat for too long :) Love that the entire family gives time and attention to the dogs during their stay.”

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of our pups! I always feel completely confident that they’re in good hands with you. It’s such a relief knowing they’re being loved and cared for like family while we’re away.”
“Kristine was awesome in taking care of our 6-month-old pup. Initially, we were worried as thats the first time we left the pup in a sitter's home. But she cleared all our worries with regular updates and the pics. And my pup also enjoyed the stay there. So happy for selecting Kristine for our pup.”
“I had an amazing experience with Yvette! She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated every single day with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. 🐶💛 I could see how happy and comfortable my dog was the entire time. It’s clear that she truly loves what she does and treats the pets like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive. I will definitely be using her services again!”
“We LOVED Chelsea! Our pup went to her house for the week and had a wonderful time. She has a nice and large backyard where our boy could run all he wanted, and pools for when it was too hot outside. Chelsea took pictures daily and kept me well informed of our baby. I am definitely going to book again!”
“God Bless this wonderful at the last minute host who was able to watch our Gouda. He showed us videos of Gouda at play. While getting exercise in his enormous backyard, it looks like a dog’s Dream.) I would highly recommend Don.”
“We couldn’t be happier that we found Kaela and her family! From the very beginning, they were incredibly professional, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. Throughout our time away, they kept us updated with regular check-ins and photos. Kaela also made sure our dog got plenty of walks and playtime (which I even said wasn’t necessary), and it was clear they treated our dog like part of the family. We’re so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog sitter!”
“Where do I even begin Charlotte had an amazing time at Alexandra’s home. She took such good care of her. She kept me updated daily with photos and updates on how Charlotte was doing. Charlotte also got along with her sweet dogs. She came back happy and tired which indicates to me she had a blast! Thanks Alexandra for everything! I will definitely be using her again!”

Tania is super kind and follows direction so well. I will absolutely continue using Tania as my dog sitter! She’s the best.”

I have house sat, walked and taken care of family and friends pets for as long as I can remember. I work from home so I will be with them 24/7 basically. The most we do Is go out on a weekend evening for a little bit but that’s it. I have one dog, Ollie he is 5 years old a bernadoodle and pretty laid back.

About: I grew up with one dog in my house and have house/pet sit for family and friends. When I was getting my degree I worked at PetSmart in the Doggie Day Care. I’m a teacher and home more in the summer! I’m a teacher and usually leave my house by 7:30 am and return no later than 4:45 pm. Growing up my family’s dog’s routine was to be walked and fed twice a day. When it was hot outside the routine changed with him having a bathroom break and then walked later that evening. I have experience in providing medication. I have a fenced in yard for your dog(s) to run around, sidewalks in my neighborhood to walk, and room to crate your dog(s) if thats what they need to feel comfortable. I currently don’t have a dog so they would have all the pets and snuggles!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I have three dogs of my own, including a senior, plus my cat Mila. My baby Sophie passed away in 2023. She shaped who I am today. I’ve also cared for rabbits, turtles, birds, shy pets, senior pets, and reactive animals. I’m patient, calm, and gentle, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. Between my own dogs, rabbits, and turtle, my days revolve around feeding, walks, cleaning, and spending time with them. I naturally plan my schedule around pets’ needs, so welcoming another pet into that routine feels easy and familiar. I love providing calm, consistent care that helps animals feel safe and comfortable. In my home, I keep a calm, clean, and comfortable environment so pets feel safe and relaxed. I follow routines closely, supervise interactions, and make sure feeding, walks, playtime, and cleaning are always handled properly. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow your instructions carefully. Whether it’s medications, specific routines, or helping a shy pet feel at ease, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved
About: I've had pet dogs my entire life, from puppies all the way to the stubborn old dog living with me now! I have also volunteered at animal shelters for a total of five years, where I learned a lot about how to care for various ages and breeds of dogs. Additionally, my current dog is a senior and is partially blind and deaf, so I am experienced in caring for older dogs who may have special needs. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so I have a very flexible schedule! I can definitely accommodate any walks or potty breaks your pup might need, and I can also be home if your pup has separation anxiety or needs a closer eye kept on them. I have a fenced yard and two children with lots of energy to keep your pup entertained! My neighborhood has plenty of walking trails, as well as a dog park. I do have a dog in my home, as well; he is a senior and very laid-back and calm. So we are also happy to hang out with lower energy dogs who might just enjoy snuggles and lots of naps.
About: I typically help neighbors & family with their pets when they’ve gone out of town many times. Walking, feeding, medicine, baths, etc. My parents recently got puppies that I helped raise from a month old! 💙 I work from home as a video marketer & work part time door dashing, which allows my schedule to be insanely flexible to help out with play time, walks, & drop by visits. 😎 I often help my elderly people bring their groceries all the way to the kitchen. I make sure to greet the animals, let them build confidence & trust, before entering the homes. My intention is to leave a safe impact on the house.

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 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.
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! So I have plenty of time to pet sit and or walk pets. I will care for the pets in my client's home according to their exact specifications. I can't bring other animals into my home as I already have 3 pets.
About: I have worked in a mixed animal clinic for 3 years. I have a degree in equine business with preVet qualifications. I have taken care of pets and livestock since I could walk. I have experience with the youngest to senior pets. I’m currently available before work and after work to check in on your pets! I’m used to all different kinds of animals as well as several different needs. My dog is fully crate, leash, off-leash, and car trained and loves to play. I can crate your dog and give it the best care and attention just like mine gets! I have petsitted for multiple friends and family while they’re out of town.
About: I have 3 years of experience working in an animal shelter, where I was lucky enough to care for animals of all kinds. I am familiar with the necessary care needed for pets of all ages, from baby to senior. I am practiced in giving medication and basic grooming/ maintenance, as well as having worked with trainers in the past though I am not credentialed. Due to my history, I am also experienced working with animals with behavioural issues and am not intimidated by the size of a pet. I am currently between jobs and, therefore, am able to move around my schedule at will. I have a reliable form of transportation that allows me to be wherever you need me to be when you need me to be there. My apartment is not large enough, nor would the complex allow me to, house animals not already on my lease, but I am physically capable of taking dogs out multiple times per day on walks (duration depends on the heat). I play with my own animals multiple times a day for at least 20 minutes each, so rest assured your cats will also get the exercise they deserve. I will go above and beyond for your pets simply because I believe they deserve it.
About: I have taken care of pets for neighbors, family, and friends since 2014, most often as a sitting while the owners are out of town.

I am available to stay overnight as well. I love caring for my pet Rex. I love to give him treats, toys, take him on walks, etc. Anything to keep him feeling engaged and enriched. I am very mindful of his behavior and have learned what he needs based on how he acts. I will pay this much attention to detail with your pets!

I’m very attentive and will take great care of your pets.
About: I’ve never met a dog I didn’t love, I can’t imagine life without dogs. Every dog deserves to feel valued, and if I can give your pup a little extra love than they already receive from you, I’d be honored! Pet care is part of my daily routine with my pups already—feeding, walking, playing, and cuddling. It brings structure, joy, and a sense of responsibility to my week. I take caring for my own pets and others very seriously—I make sure they receive enough quality time, food, walking, playing, and attention. I want them to feel safe, happy, and loved whether in my home or a client’s.
About: I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and paying clients to care for dogs and other pets, including overnight stays while owners are away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds—even large dogs, since I have a Rottweiler of my own and have grown up around big dogs and pets my entire life. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I make it a priority to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and will always communicate with owners so they know their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I always make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need, and I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions to keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to keep that routine consistent while you’re away. I’m attentive, dependable, and will carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special requests. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes—including large breeds, as I own a Rottweiler myself—so I’m confident handling energetic or strong dogs. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve grown up on a farm & helped raise dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, cows, ducks, & hamsters! I have a love for all animals :) I am a law student, so when I’m not in class, I can drop in to care for your pet! I’m also available anytime on weekends! I have a fenced yard for your fur baby to play in. I also have a male (neutered) dog who just turned two. He’s very friendly and trained! I have a large crate if your pet needs to be crated for any reason, otherwise they are welcome to snuggle on my couch or bed with me!!

“This was our first time boarding our dog. Reviews from previous clients and how willing Nicole was to answer any questions or concerns I had is what made us feel most comfortable in choosing her to care for our Ava. We received daily photos and updates which my kids looked forward to every day and helped ease their worries about being away from her. We highly recommend Nicole and look forward to working with her in the future!”
“Kelli was fantastic, she picked up our late booking & she was so informative & structured I knew exactly what to expect. She has two dogs of her own that were so kind and gentle with my pup. My dog was so very happy staying with them 💖”
“Melissa and Roy are absolutely amazing! This is the second time they have watched our dogs for us, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing that our dogs are so well taken care of, especially when one of our dogs has such high anxiety. When we pulled into their driveway, our dogs got so excited! We are so grateful!”
“Tons of shaded area to run around in the back yard! We have a very timid pup and they took extra measures to ensure she was safe and felt secure with regard to the other dogs. The dogs were kept inside at night safe and comfy. And they ensured none of the dogs were outside in the heat for too long :) Love that the entire family gives time and attention to the dogs during their stay.”
“Sarah is the best! Our dogs were happy and well taken care of during their stay. She communicates well by providing detailed updates. She was flexible and able to accommodate my schedule. I will be using her services again and I recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!”

She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated every single day with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. 🐶💛 I could see how happy and comfortable my dog was the entire time.

I will definitely be using her services again!”
“We LOVED Chelsea! Our pup went to her house for the week and had a wonderful time. She has a nice and large backyard where our boy could run all he wanted, and pools for when it was too hot outside. Chelsea took pictures daily and kept me well informed of our baby. I am definitely going to book again!”
“God Bless this wonderful at the last minute host who was able to watch our Gouda. He showed us videos of Gouda at play. While getting exercise in his enormous backyard, it looks like a dog’s Dream.) I would highly recommend Don.”
“My dog and cat loved Jaclyn, and I was so happy to not have to split them up and keep them apart, like I would have at a traditional boarding facility. My dog is hit or miss with other dogs, so I felt better that Jaclyn only takes one client at a time, and I know my dog liked getting all of her undivided attention! Lots of photo updates, so I could feel assured to see my pets settling in and getting comfortable. We will definitely be using Jaclyn again!”
“Catherine was great with Marley. She sent photos and updates several times during the week. She was even concerned about him being scared of the rain/ thunder and took extra care to make sure he felt safe and secure during the thunder storms. I will definitely use her again.”

We’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and thoughtful dog sitter!”
