“From the beginning, even before leaving my Mario with Youjin was a great experience. Her and her family are clearly genuine people and they love animals. Youjin sent videos and photos of Mario having a great time. For my first pet, this is the experience I wanted for him and me. Thanks for taking care of my Mario. I really enjoyed all the photos and video. We truly enjoyed meeting you and your beautiful family. I will definitely be a return. I would recommend leaving your fur baby with them, they will be in excellent hands. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience and Mario ditto’s that.”

When one of our dogs had a negative interaction with another dog, they informed us immediately and kept us updated. We felt that our dogs were genuinely cared for like part of the family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy place for their pets.”
“Eana was great! Very quick to respond and provided daily updates over the 4 days she provided boarding. She has a very strong understanding of dogs and provided a clean and welcoming place (house is very clean). This allowed me to be at ease over the past 4 days while I was gone. Would highly recommend Eana and will 100% reach out if I do come down to SD again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, as well as provide plenty of love and attention. At home, I’ve cared for my own pets daily ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and well groomed. I also volunteer with the SMU feral cat community, helping feed, monitor, and care for stray cats on campus. My experience spans from puppies and kittens to senior pets, and I’m comfortable with all temperaments and sizes. Schedule: I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for cats throughout the day. I regularly help care for SMU’s feral cat community, so I’m used to feeding, socializing, and checking on cats at different times. I’m available for visits and drop ins most weekdays after 2 PM and weekends all day. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet and always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I make sure spaces are secure, remove hazards, and monitor pets for any changes in behavior. I currently have a puppy (a bichonpoo) and understand the importance of both love and structure. My motto is “life is too short let them sleep on the bed,” but I also believe discipline is key in shaping well behaved dogs. I’m happy to bring my puppy along for companionship if approved, but I always ask first since I respect that every pet and owner has different boundaries.

Since I'm retired, I have time and patience to spend with seniors and puppies. I can be there to ensure everyone's routines are maintained. Cats are always fun to sit for.

Since pets are my full-time occupation, my schedule can be flexible to ensure your pets' needs are taken care of. I will spoil them as much as you allow me to, but will always respect your guidelines. Since I will care for you pet(s) in your home, I will follow the safety guidelines you provide. I have had both friendly and reactive dogs, so will follow your guidance on how best to ensure safety on walks.

I just moved a good distance so my schedule is pretty flexible for a while. I should have plenty of time for your tail wagging friends. I’ve found that many pets are different from each other and require different needs. I’ll gladly take any info or tips specific to your pet to ensure they get the care they need.
About: Hi! We’re a husband-and-wife team who absolutely love caring for animals. We both work from home, so your pets get plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. We live on a beautiful 4-acre farm with a fully fenced yard, giving dogs plenty of safe space to stretch their legs, play, and enjoy the outdoors. We also have a comfortable, climate controlled cabin just for the pets where they can relax, nap, and have their own cozy space when they need some downtime. Our goal is to make every pet feel like they’re on their own little vacation not just being boarded. We treat every animal like family and are happy to follow their normal routines, schedules, feeding instructions, medications, and individual needs. Fenced 4-acre property Their own comfy pet cabin Both of us work from home Lots of attention & companionship Plenty of room to play and explore 15 years of animal care experience Dog rescue and shelter experience Husband and wife care A safe, relaxed, home style environment We also run a dog rescue and have been actively involved with animal shelters for years. With 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals, we understand how important patience, compassion, consistency, and individualized care are for every pet. We’d love to meet you and your pets and give them a fun, safe, and comfortable place to stay while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible based on each pet’s needs. I’m currently available for weekday and weekend care, including walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I prioritize consistency and make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I focus on providing a safe, calm, and structured environment whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I follow all care instructions closely, maintain clean and secure spaces, and always prioritize a pet’s comfort and routine. I’m experienced with crate use when requested, proper leash handling, and monitoring behavior to ensure pets remain safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.

“I had never hired a dog walker until I met Joshna and her family. Before our 1st scheduled walk they came by for a quick meet and greet which was very nice and really took the time to get to know our fur baby. I now book them on a regular basis and I can’t express enough how great they are!! I’d definitely recommend them to friends and fam!”
About: I love dogs! I have three of my own—if I could, I would have 300. I’ve been walking dogs and caring for animals for over 30 years, and my experience spans all ages, temperaments, and needs. I’ve done everything from bottle feeding puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs and dogs with medical needs, including administering medications and following special routines. I’m comfortable handling rambunctious, high-energy dogs who need structure, exercise, and patience, as well as shy or anxious pets who benefit from a calm, reassuring presence. My animal experience isn’t limited to dogs. I’ve also cared for horses and rabbits, so I understand the importance of species-specific care, safety, and attention to detail. I treat every animal as if they were my own, focusing on their comfort, routine, and well-being. Whether your pet needs lots of activity, extra medical attention, or quiet companionship, I’m dedicated to providing reliable, loving care you can trust. I’m a teacher, which means I have reliable availability in the evenings on weekdays. I’m also fully available during school holidays, long breaks, and throughout summer vacation. During those times, I have flexible daytime and extended availability to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. If you have a pet who needs consistent evening care during the school year or more frequent attention during breaks and summer, I’m happy to help and keep their routine as smooth as possible. When pets stay in my home, I focus on keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care needs. Dogs receive regular walks, playtime, and quiet rest, and I always prioritize comfort, especially for senior dogs or those with medical needs. I take introductions slowly when needed and make sure every pet feels secure and respected. My goal is for your pet to feel like part of the family while you’re away. Caring for Pets in Your Home When caring for pets in their own home, I respect both your space and your pet’s routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and household guidelines. I understand how important consistency is, especially for anxious pets, seniors, and medical cases. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I leave your home clean and cared for, and your pet happy, comfortable, and safe.

“From the beginning, even before leaving my Mario with Youjin was a great experience. Her and her family are clearly genuine people and they love animals. Youjin sent videos and photos of Mario having a great time. For my first pet, this is the experience I wanted for him and me. Thanks for taking care of my Mario. I really enjoyed all the photos and video. We truly enjoyed meeting you and your beautiful family. I will definitely be a return. I would recommend leaving your fur baby with them, they will be in excellent hands. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience and Mario ditto’s that.”

When I picked her up, she was clearly well-loved and had a blast. I highly recommend them and will definitely be booking with them again!”

“Madison was so responsive! I expressed some concerns before drop off with my fur baby and she kept me in the loop every day. Got so many videos and pictures as the weekend went on! Love how much my puppy didn’t want to go home :,)”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our dogs, Kona, Nellie, and Harvey, with this family. They sent frequent photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was easy to tell our dogs were having fun playing with the other dogs and receiving lots of love and affection. We also really appreciated their communication and transparency. When one of our dogs had a negative interaction with another dog, they informed us immediately and kept us updated. We felt that our dogs were genuinely cared for like part of the family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy place for their pets.”
“Eana was great! Very quick to respond and provided daily updates over the 4 days she provided boarding. She has a very strong understanding of dogs and provided a clean and welcoming place (house is very clean). This allowed me to be at ease over the past 4 days while I was gone. Would highly recommend Eana and will 100% reach out if I do come down to SD again.”

“Angelet was absolutely wonderful! She was able to keep Rosie on very short notice, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She kept me updated throughout Rosie’s stay, sent lots of photos, and gave me such peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Rosie was well cared for and loved. I truly appreciated the excellent communication and the extra effort Angelet put into making sure I knew Rosie was happy and doing well. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Angelet!”
“This was our first time using the Rover app, and we were quite apprehensive about leaving our sweet dog Anu with strangers. However, the moment we met Keyuana, we knew she would be the perfect choice for us. She welcomed us into her lovely home, asked all the right questions regarding our dog, patiently listened to our long list of questions, and understood all our concerns. Anu stayed with Keyuana for 3 weeks while we were traveling. During this time, we received daily updates from her regarding Anu’s routine, as well as some adorable pictures of Anu looking right at home. Needless to say, Keyuana will be our go-to person if we ever need to board Anu again in the future!”
“Nikki has been a fantastic sitter for our German Shepherd. He is very reserved and has some medical issues. She has no problem giving him medications. And with her dog Turk, she helped him come out of his shell. He is completely relaxed at her place. This is amazing. He rarely get relaxed anywhere but home. We will always use Nikki”
“Joy took care of Lincoln for 2 weeks. She was very attentive to him and sent us lots of pictures. She was gentle and kind with Lincoln since he had just lost his lifetime buddy, and was a little anxious. She eased her way right into Lincoln’s heart and I could tell when I picked him up they had truly bonded! If you want someone to take care of your dog better than you actually do, Joy is the choice for the job! We hope to leave Lincoln in her care again!”
“Christian went above and beyond of taking care of Bella while we were away. He sent us photos and videos of our baby girl. He updated us everyday. We can tell Bella was happy. Thank you Christian”
