“Justin is the only person I trust with my Zoey. He is literally the best. If you can’t decide on a person to choose, this is your sign to pick him! Your puppy will feel so loved!”

“Jennifer is always so good with our dogs. We wouldn’t want them to go anywhere else. Always appreciate her thoughtfulness to keep us updated on how they’re doing and her loving spirit. Highly recommended her services!!”

“Eliza was amazing! She took great care of my dog, kept me updated, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My dog came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!”

“Shelley is absolutely amazing! We feel so lucky to have found her to care for our dog, Opie. She truly loves him and treats him like a king every time he stays with her. Opie always comes home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for, and he gets so excited every time he gets to see Shelley again! It gives us such peace of mind knowing Opie is with someone who genuinely cares about him and treats him like her own. Shelley is dependable, loving, attentive, and simply the best. We could not recommend her more highly to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their furry family member. Opie absolutely adores her, and so do we!”

“Bailee’s communication is phenomenal! She responds fairly quick and gave us constant picture updates of our fur baby’s progress. Ozzy seemed to have made himself at home and had fun there because he came back sleepy, which is good for us! :)”

“We never worry about our pups when they’re with Julie. She treats them like they are her own. They love running around her large property playing and sniffing all the new smells. It’s their doggy vacation! 😊”

“Jessica was amazing! She took such great care of my dog and treated him like her own. He was so happy and comfortable with her that I don’t think he even missed me! 😂🐾 I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. 💕”

“We could not be more happy with our puppy's stay with Heather!! She kept us up to date with pictures and messages the whole time Ivy was in her care and treated her as if she was her own dog! Very flexible with drop off and pick up which was extremely helpful to us as we were traveling and our plans changed a little bit. I could not imagine a better experience!”

“Jerry was great!! Very professional while at the same time very personable! He took great care of our Lab and his house was a perfect set up. Glad we found him, we will definitely be using Jerry again!!”

“Shelby accommodated my almost last minute need to board my dog at their home. My Gracie is an excitable, large Labrador, but Shelby and her family enjoyed caring for her and Gracie had a good time, especially with children, which experience she doesn’t get very often but loves! So, it was like a vacation for her with lots of fun. Thank you, Shelby and family!”

About: I am currently a student of the University of Texas Arlington working on my Master’s degree in Social Work and I am hoping to make some extra money to help pay for some of the college expenses. A few fun facts about me are that I love playing sports, having movie nights, and cooking. Growing up, I had a ton of animals and currently I don’t have any pets so I miss loving on all the fur babies. I love spending time loving and playing with dogs and I believe this is a great opportunity for me to be able to do that, make a little extra money, and get some exercise in as well. I am working full time from 8:30am to 5pm, however, I would be open to doing a walk and check in during my lunch hour and anytime before or after work. When the pets are in my home, they are allowed to roam free and play all they want as long as they are potty trained. In the clients home I respectfully abide by the owners instructions left for me.
“Linda was fantastic with our dog! She and her husband were the friendliest people and welcomed our pup into their home like he was their own. They took such good care of him and provided updates on his care while we were away. I would recommend her to anyone looking for somewhere to board their pets.”

“Tracy was amazing with our dog who can be very anxious. This was the first time ever that we have picked him up from boarding that he was completely calm and didn’t seem stressed at all. Tracy sent pictures and communicated all weekend. I would recommend Tracy to anyone. Our little guy was treated with care and love just like he was one of their own.”


“Jordan is amazing! She kept me updated with daily updates and pictures. And my dog was so happy with her and her family. My dog was very well cared for with Jordan. She definitely takes care of your dog as if they were her own. I will definitely rebook with her in the future!”

I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

About: I have had a dog or cat in my life for over 5 decades. My parents raised dogs and taught me early in life how to care for pets. My heart has always belonged to some sort of pet from rabbits, guinea pigs to dogs and cats. Big dogs, smaller dogs and everything in between. I have loved them all. I am confident in my love and ability to care for all pets and appreciate my time with them. I feel pets are an essential part of my every day life. I am a Doggie Mama to 3 Basset hounds and a Rat Terrier who thinks he is a Basset hound. Our life is really blessed and very good and we wouldn't change a thing.

About: I have been so fortunate to care for and love on many dogs from puppy age to senior, both big and small! My soul dog of 16 years dealt with heart issues the last few years of his life which gave me the skills to track, administer, and monitor his schedule as needed. I have also had pups who've dealt with stomach and skin issues, so i am experienced in that aspect as well.

This gives me ample opportunity to give your pets all of the love and care that they need while you are away! When caring for pets in your home, I always ensure that they stick as close to their normal routine as possible to ease their stress. It is important to create a stress-free environment and a calm relationship between myself and your furry fam!

I have cleaned 6 of the 8 cats myself when we rescued them, I am currently in college so I was not around when we rescued the 2 newest kitties. I took 5 of them to the vet and administered flea and worm medicine to them. Some of them also had eye/ear problems and I would take care of them by giving them eye/ear drops with no problem (I gave them treats so they would feel better!)

About: I've had cats since I was very young. I had a brief hiatus from cats in my 20s when I had dogs that weren't super friendly to cats, but I now have two adorable cats that I love very much! Would love to spend some time making friends with and caring for your cats.

“Dena has a love for dogs i wish more people had! She took care of my puppy for his first visit to somewhere else besides his home and i couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. She should definitely be considered for any dog as a sitter”

About: Hi! I’m an International Professional Dog Groomer working with animals since 2019. Caring for pets is more than a job for me — it’s truly my passion. I’ve worked in both veterinary hospitals and professional grooming salons, where I gained experience caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and individual needs. As I do have a professional background in grooming. When appropriate and discussed within your booking, I’m happy to incorporate grooming care as part of your pet’s stay to help keep them comfortable. My goal is always to provide a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels loved and well cared for. I look forward to caring for your fur baby and giving them a comfy, positive experience 🐾🤍 Rabies Vaccinations is required upon booking for dogs & cats Pet care is a consistent and important part of my daily routine. I structure my days around the needs of the pets in my care to ensure they receive proper attention, supervision, and timely services. Throughout the day, I schedule time for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, grooming appointments, and rest periods. I am intentional about not overbooking so each pet receives the quality care, patience, and one-on-one attention they deserve. My weekly routine is flexible to accommodate both grooming and boarding clients, while still maintaining a calm and structured environment. This allows me to provide reliable, attentive care and adjust as needed based on each pet’s individual needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and secure environment where pets can feel at ease while in my care. In my home, pets are always supervised and given a structured routine that includes regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and rest. Each pet has a safe, designated space to relax, and I carefully monitor all interactions to ensure a stress-free experience. For grooming services, I use a gentle, low-stress approach, allowing pets to feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I take my time and adjust based on each pet’s behavior and needs.
About: I have been a dog lover since my first dog followed me home at the age of 6 (and he was a full size Doberman of all things). I currently have a German Shepherd, Pit bull Mix, Husky Mix, Chihuahua Mix and an Orange Tabby so I'm used to animals of all sizes and temperaments. My poor Pit Mix has allergies, my GSD has hip dysplasia and my Chihuahua has a heart condition, so I'm well versed in special needs! I do research constantly and spend lots of time talking to our vet about how I can make their lives, and mine, easier. I'd love to put all that knowledge to work for your fur babies! I know CPR for dogs and even keep a doggie first aid kit in my car! Just in case. I do my best to make sure my presence is felt as little as possible in your home but that your baby gets all the attention they need and deserve! I'm currently dog and cat grooming only on Fridays and Saturdays. So usually Sun-Thurs its just me and my pets living our best lives. I have a two acre property that we constantly explore and we love to go swimming at the nearby lake! I do my best to be as unintrusive as possible when in you're home! Letting me know their favorite toys and activities do make things easier for us to bond! I have a fully fenced in half acre with another acre and a half we can explore while leashed! There are cows, chickens and other animals on the farm next door so there's plenty of sights (and smells)!
About: Hi! My name is Lexie. i have two dogs, Astro and Stark. Those two boys are what got me into the pet care environment. Searching for a sitter or dog walker for them made me realize I would only want the BEST for my two boys. So I decided to become one myself. I have years of experience with dogs, cats, birds, horses, goats, chickens, exotics including hedgehogs, snakes, guinea pigs, fish and many more. I am a freelance dog trainer and groom my own dogs so if your pooch needs a little spiffy up while you’re gone don’t worry! I worked in animal rescue for many years and now do dog sports so I have experience with nearly every breed of dog imaginable. My own dogs are very high energy and need both mental stimulation and physical exercise so that’s why I also offer dog walking services. Contact me if you have ANY questions or want to meet me before booking an appointment. I’ll be happy to oblige. I am usually at home caring for the dogs! I am a dog trainer so I am available to play with the dogs and let them out most of the day. I have 1 acre fenced in. If your dog is an escape artist like mine, they will be leash walked or supervised in the backyard. I do utilize a crate if you provide it. If you prefer your dog to not be in one that is respected!

I will definitely use her services again.”

My schedule is extremely flexible so I will have plently of availability to walk and care for your fur babies! I am excited to walk and care for your pups! I know how to crate and take care of animals. My previous lab was very young and had an autoimmune condition so I have alot of experience with taking care of dogs.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a registered nurse, I’m highly attentive, dependable, and comfortable monitoring for changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, or overall well-being. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, senior pets, and animals that need extra patience and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medication administration, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of love and attention. My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits depending on your needs. I understand the importance of consistency for pets and strive to maintain their normal routines while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, extended care, or overnight attention, I’m committed to providing dependable and compassionate care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a registered nurse, I pay close attention to details and am experienced in recognizing changes in health or behavior. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and household routines. I believe in building trust with both pets and owners through clear communication, reliability, and respect for your home. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have been a dog lover since my first dog followed me home at the age of 6 (and he was a full size Doberman of all things). I currently have a German Shepherd, Pit bull Mix, Husky Mix, Chihuahua Mix and an Orange Tabby so I'm used to animals of all sizes and temperaments. My poor Pit Mix has allergies, my GSD has hip dysplasia and my Chihuahua has a heart condition, so I'm well versed in special needs! I do research constantly and spend lots of time talking to our vet about how I can make their lives, and mine, easier. I'd love to put all that knowledge to work for your fur babies! I know CPR for dogs and even keep a doggie first aid kit in my car! Just in case. I do my best to make sure my presence is felt as little as possible in your home but that your baby gets all the attention they need and deserve! I'm currently dog and cat grooming only on Fridays and Saturdays. So usually Sun-Thurs its just me and my pets living our best lives. I have a two acre property that we constantly explore and we love to go swimming at the nearby lake! I do my best to be as unintrusive as possible when in you're home! Letting me know their favorite toys and activities do make things easier for us to bond! I have a fully fenced in half acre with another acre and a half we can explore while leashed! There are cows, chickens and other animals on the farm next door so there's plenty of sights (and smells)!

About: Hey! My name is Stefanie and I have been taking care of animals for almost my entire life. I have experience with both cats and dogs and would love to watch your pets for you. I hold myself to the same standards that I would expect from my own pet sitters. I can handle animals of all shapes and sizes, even your giant breeds! I have experience in the veterinary field and have cared for pets with all types of dietary restrictions, medical needs, and temperaments - so if your pet needs some special attention, I'm your gal! I have had dogs for almost my entire life. As a child my family had a Lhasa Apso, and he lived a long and happy life with us. I have had pets of my own since 2014, and all my pups are seniors now - they have a special place in my heart! I also have two sweet young cats and would love to check on your feline kiddos. I am a full time mother so I am readily available for drop in visits, overnights, and walks. Please note that my infant son will be with me during all visits. I will of course assume responsibility for my kiddo being safe around your pets, but please be mindful of your pets' temperament with children when booking! My ideal scenario when caring for your pets is to adopt their current routine - I find that keeps them the happiest while their people are away. I'm happy to visit on whatever schedule is best for you, and I'm happy to do overnights as needed.

About: Growing up I have always been an animal lover. At my house we have always had all types of animals dogs, cats, pigs etc etc. I am very good with all types of animals and I will treat your dog with the same amount of kindness and love you would treat your dog. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet with a stranger especially in this day and age where people can be really scary and not trusty worthy- which is why if you trust me you won’t be let down! your fur baby will be in good hands :) I don’t think of it as a job it makes my heart happy knowing that i can help you ease your mind and help take one thing off your plate when traveling :) I currently work part time at the olive garden in longview but I pretty much am able to make my own schedules so i can be available whenever I am needed :) I live on property that is gated so your animal will not be able to run out. I have 4 other dogs that are very well behaved and love to meet and play with new animals however if that doesn’t fit for your dog i also do have secluded areas where they can be kept away from other dogs.

About: I'm a lover of all animals, willing to accommodate special hours or instructions, if medications are needed I'm comfortable doing that as well. Have been pet sitting for 10+ years and have yet to meet a dog/pet I don't adore? I'm willing to work with anyone's pet and meet them beforehand to make sure they feel comfortable with me. A pet should always come first so I would want to make sure I can accommodate their needs. I'm a firm believer in in also having a healthy relationship with pet parents and most certainly encourage any questions to make sure your pet and I both be comfortable each other before accepting any job. Please feel free to contact me, I'll answer any questions about myself and background as well as provide references. I am currently a part-time student so my schedule can work around yours. I set my school hours accordingly, therefore it doesn't interfere with the care of your pet. Patience goes a long way when it comes to establishing a connection with a pet. Pets are attached to their owners and some can become sensitive or withdrawn to new people. It's up to me to form a bond with all pets. Most pets I have come across form relationships easily, however there are cases where pets may come with a past. Such as being rescues whose previous owners didn't treat them well . In such cases lots of love, attention and patience would be given on my part to ensure that your pet feels safe.

“Eliza was amazing! She took great care of my dog, kept me updated, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My dog came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!”

“Shelley is absolutely amazing! We feel so lucky to have found her to care for our dog, Opie. She truly loves him and treats him like a king every time he stays with her. Opie always comes home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for, and he gets so excited every time he gets to see Shelley again! It gives us such peace of mind knowing Opie is with someone who genuinely cares about him and treats him like her own. Shelley is dependable, loving, attentive, and simply the best. We could not recommend her more highly to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their furry family member. Opie absolutely adores her, and so do we!”

“Bailee’s communication is phenomenal! She responds fairly quick and gave us constant picture updates of our fur baby’s progress. Ozzy seemed to have made himself at home and had fun there because he came back sleepy, which is good for us! :)”

Very flexible with drop off and pick up which was extremely helpful to us as we were traveling and our plans changed a little bit. I could not imagine a better experience!”

“Jerry was great!! Very professional while at the same time very personable! He took great care of our Lab and his house was a perfect set up. Glad we found him, we will definitely be using Jerry again!!”

“Shelby accommodated my almost last minute need to board my dog at their home. My Gracie is an excitable, large Labrador, but Shelby and her family enjoyed caring for her and Gracie had a good time, especially with children, which experience she doesn’t get very often but loves! So, it was like a vacation for her with lots of fun. Thank you, Shelby and family!”

About: I am currently a student of the University of Texas Arlington working on my Master’s degree in Social Work and I am hoping to make some extra money to help pay for some of the college expenses. A few fun facts about me are that I love playing sports, having movie nights, and cooking. Growing up, I had a ton of animals and currently I don’t have any pets so I miss loving on all the fur babies. I love spending time loving and playing with dogs and I believe this is a great opportunity for me to be able to do that, make a little extra money, and get some exercise in as well. I am working full time from 8:30am to 5pm, however, I would be open to doing a walk and check in during my lunch hour and anytime before or after work. When the pets are in my home, they are allowed to roam free and play all they want as long as they are potty trained. In the clients home I respectfully abide by the owners instructions left for me.
“Tracy was amazing with our dog who can be very anxious. This was the first time ever that we have picked him up from boarding that he was completely calm and didn’t seem stressed at all. Tracy sent pictures and communicated all weekend. I would recommend Tracy to anyone. Our little guy was treated with care and love just like he was one of their own.”


“Jordan is amazing! She kept me updated with daily updates and pictures. And my dog was so happy with her and her family. My dog was very well cared for with Jordan. She definitely takes care of your dog as if they were her own. I will definitely rebook with her in the future!”

“I can’t recommend Destine enough! She took such amazing care of Penny and treated her like she was her own. I got regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that Penny was happy, comfortable, and well loved. I was a little nervous leaving my cat, but she completely exceeded my expectations. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!”
