“This was my first time leaving my pups for the weekend and Shelby made me feel so comfortable. She kept me updated on how my dogs were doing the whole time! She was great with them and will definitely book her again ?”
“Jerry was great; he sent us pictures of our 2 dogs daily with updates, and was super understanding and flexible with pickup and drop off times. Thank you for taking care of our pups, Jerry!”
“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!”
“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!!”
“Beverly was wonderful with our fur-baby dog! She has a fully fenced yard and a pool for the dogs, which our lab just loved with the summer heat! Beverly sent daily pictures and videos. Seeing our dog happy reduced any potential stress while on vacation. We definitely recommend Beverly and will be happy to have our dog stay with her again! THANK YOU!!!”
“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 highly recommend Kimberly! She took excellent care of my dog and sent daily updates on how things were going. She was wonderful to work with and has excellent communication. I drove an hour out of our way to specifically use Kimberly and I would gladly do it again! Thanks Kimberly!”
“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! 😊”
“Brittany and Tristen did a great job taking care of my pup! I will be using them again when I need help and I highly recommend them to take excellent care of your four legged friends!”

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.

I will definitely use her services again.”

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 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: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Now that I have my own home, our pets are truly our babies.

I provide a cozy guest room for their stay and a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for safe playtime and potty breaks. Every pet in our home is treated like family and receives lots of love and attention.
“My Son and I were traveling for work in the Tyler Texas area when we noticed that we needed some new tires for the car, and since it was cold and rainy on this New Years Eve we had to leave the car at Walmart and we had no place to go with the dog since Walmart refused to work on the car with Rollie in it. Luckily I found Wendy on the first try for such a short notice and she happily agreed to watch after Rollie for a few hours until the car was completed. We are so glad and Thankful for her kindness at such a critical time.”

I feed them all at 6:40am clean litter boxes. And if I am off work I will do it again at 11 or 12 then again around 6pm dinner time. If it is just dog walking or cat sitting at clients home I will figure it out to where it works with my schedule.
About: I love taking care of animals its been a passion since I was little :) i have always had animals inside and outside. I love having animals around it just makes life better in so many ways! I am a stay at home mom i will have plenty of time for your furbaby and lots of love!! All the Cuddles and walks a dog could dream for! I have a fenced in yard and animals that love guest! Your baby will never be bored or lonely! Lots of fun around here and never a dull moment.
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: I have cared for many dogs in my life. I have cared for friends' and family's dogs, as well as my own, ranging from chihuahuas to great danes. I have yet to meet a pooch who doesn't like me. I will provide individual quality care to each pup and will willingly help with any extra pup related requests (Baths, brushing, and medications). I am also always available by phone if you would like to ask any questions about me or how I will help take care of your precious pup. I know that each pup is an important member of the family, and assure that I will take the best of care of the pup or pups. I'm Alexis and I will be your pup's best friend! I'm a college student so my schedule is pretty open and flexible. Perfect for all your dog's needs! I always open and honest about my schedule and will never cancel last minute. My goal is to keep your pet happy and maintain their routine. I'll always have my eyes on your dog whether it's at home, on a walk, or at a dog park. I also strive to keep your home how you left it though if you need a few chores done I don't mind helping out.
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.
About: They will get a lot of love and they will see the joyful heart in there pet and they will see the difference in there behavior the only pet care I have had was my own and with friends and family most animals are like kids a little attention and a lot of love and getting their bellies full they usually are happy and content really not much more to say but they will be happy every one gets a long with everyone here and I will learn their ways and they will learn the do and the don'ts like I said before they are like kids they know good from bad they get a hold of a bad bay sitter they act out just like a kid would

“This was my first time leaving my pups for the weekend and Shelby made me feel so comfortable. She kept me updated on how my dogs were doing the whole time! She was great with them and will definitely book her again ?”
“Jerry was great; he sent us pictures of our 2 dogs daily with updates, and was super understanding and flexible with pickup and drop off times. Thank you for taking care of our pups, Jerry!”
“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!”
“Beverly was wonderful with our fur-baby dog! She has a fully fenced yard and a pool for the dogs, which our lab just loved with the summer heat! Beverly sent daily pictures and videos. Seeing our dog happy reduced any potential stress while on vacation. We definitely recommend Beverly and will be happy to have our dog stay with her again! THANK YOU!!!”
“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!”
“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! 😊”
“Brittany and Tristen did a great job taking care of my pup! I will be using them again when I need help and I highly recommend them to take excellent care of your four legged friends!”
“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. 💕”
“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.”
“Zorro's time with Sarah was incredible! He had a wonderful time. She was very conscientious to make him feel loved and comfortable. Sarah knew this was his first experience with a new sitter and sent pictures and videos to show how happy and content he was. His appetite was good and he slept well through each night. I highly recommend Sarah and will schedule with her again when needed.”
“Monica was awesome amd Cheeto had a great time with her boys as well. I will definitely use her again and would highly recommend (but want to ensure she doesn’t get so busy she is never available for us, which we AND Cheeto would hate - lol). Seriously, can’t find the words to define how wonderful her whole family is.”
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 have one golden retriever who loves to play and make new friends. 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. We love walking around our neighborhood and going to the park! I am currently a stay at home mom to my 10 month old daughter. I am available throughout the day and weekends and can definitely work with a flexible schedule to accommodate. 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.
“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!”
