“We had Megan come in the morning for a walk and in the evening for a check-in. This is the fourth time we have used Megan. We have always been happy with how she handles Finley Magee. We highly recommend Megan, and we will continue to have Megan watch Finley. This was the longest we spent time away from Finley Magee. It was hard for us to leave your 4-legged baby and I know it would be hard for our pup too. Megan put us at ease with her detailed progress reports during each visit. Megan’s knowledge, flexibility, compassion, and patience is incredible. By day 3, Finley was jumping around and excited to see Megan. We are very fortunate to have Megan help us with Finely Magee!”

About: I am an at home baker with two kids. I have previously boarded animals in an apartment but now I have a house with more room! I have owned all types of pets from frogs to guinea pigs to cats and dogs. I will treat your pet as I do my own. I'm an at home baker so I have plenty of time to watch your pets. Only occasionally will I leave to run errands or deliver an order or take the kids out for a bit. I have a house with a wood fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. I also have two pets an aquatic turtle and a rabbit that can easily be put in a cage and in another room if need be.
8. Kaylin D.
“Hello, My name is David and I am Kaylin's neighbor. She and my dog first met when she was walking her Aussie shepherd. On occasions I ask Kaylin to take care and walk my dog when I am either busy or out of town. Kaylin is a loving person and takes pride in ensuring the safety of my dog and making sure they are well nourished and occupied during my absence. Kaylin also ensures the cleanliness of my dog and the surround areas when he takes cares of his business. I speak with conviction that Kaylin will be well fit for this role. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.”

12. Tiffany A.
About: Hi! I'm Tiffany. I honestly love this gig… I get to watch sweet pups that bring extra fun, laughs, and heart-full moments! Pup therapy :) I have an 13+ year-old Morkie (maltese/yorkie mix) named Monkey and a 2ish “rescue-fail” small chihuahua, named Brewster. *Monkey passed away in September 2023* I have Brewster and a puppy named Reese now. Little Brew loves having another buddy or 2 to play with or new people to love on and it’s been an adjustment not having his brother to play and bond with. I live in a single story patio home with a nice side yard for dog running and potty, along with ample walking around the neighborhood. I also have a SMALL dog door that leads into the fenced in backyard but it’s small and only fits dogs under approx 15 lbs. I do typically work Monday-Friday normal workday, but I am able to provide dog sitting/boarding at my home. While I’m at work I would need to have your pup crated (unless you are certain they’ll do ok out on their own without causing damage or potty issues) during that time for their safety and avoid damage to my house. I know this isn’t ideal for all situations and I do have some flexibility to work from home when I need to depending on the date/times. When I am home during the evenings and weekends or holidays, the pups have free rein over just about anywhere. And sleeping arrangements can vary depending on preference and how the dogs get along with each other :) I always find myself gravitating towards dogs whenever I see or meet them. I can’t help myself :) I fully understand the need to find suitable care and right place for your 🐶 while we have to be away from them! I am here to help. I use Rover myself when I travel, so I try to see both sides and provide that in my service. I'm responsible, respectful, professional, good at communicating, and would love to help you out with your pet sitting needs. I go above and beyond to help your sweet 🐶 feel at home and comfortable while you are away. Brewster was a foster fail that I adopted a few years ago and he’s very go-with-the-flow and a grateful dog. He’s full of energy and loves to play and fetch! He and I love to take walks around the neighborhood and the local community dog park for play time. Reese is now potty trained and LOVES to play with his brother and be the life of the party. He does well with other dogs and is a very happy go lucky puppy. If I come to your home, I will make sure your furbaby is loved on, fed, walked and gets some fun interaction/play time each visit. If you are looking to have your pup do overnight stays with me at my home, I always try to arrange a meet & greet for new clients to make sure you and your dog are comfortable with the layout of the house, how they feel around me, and so you can observe how your dog and Brewster interact. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pup or furbaby! Thanks for considering me! :) I am a full-time working professional out of the home Mon-Fri so this is a side gig. I am home between 6-7pm and don’t venture out much. My pup (and of course yours) will get all sorts of love and attention and play time in the mornings, evenings and overnight or when I’m working from home. I treat all pups like they are my own in how I give them love and attention. Trust, love, and safety for your pets is a MUST! I want them to feel comfortable while I watch them. I follow all instructions or rules the owners share with me and communicate any issues or questions in a timely fashion.
13. Rachel S.
“Rachel is the biggest pet person ever! She has grown up always having animals in her house and has been the most responsible for most of those animals. She loves all animals and really cares about them being safe and happy wherever they are. My favorite thing is to see her face light up when she sees a pet walk into the room! Rachel is without a doubt the most reliable and kind person for taking care of your pet.”
14. Guenivere P.
“Coco and Boots like seeing Guen! She handles Coco well on her walks (Coco is hard to walk because she's 100 bs and not dog friendly). Thanks Guen!”
15. Karina C.
“Karina is the best pet caregiver. I always feel safe and comfort leaving my dogs under her supervision. She sends me updated and photos throughout the day. Very trustworthy person and will provide loving care for your pets!”
16. Christopher & Xavier D.
About: My whole life I have surrounded myself with Dogs to love and care for and the feeling you know is always reciprocated with them. I only accept 1 family at a time so no other animals will be present aside from the one(s) belonging to YOUR pack. I hope your furry companion enjoys watching Caesar Millan The Dog Whisperer, because we watch it often :). Providing the pups with safety is just or more important as giving them love and cuddles. This means being one step ahead and identifying potential risks before they become risks such as household objects, being around others (especially children), and other animals. My work from home day job is risk-management and risk aversion management which becomes a mindset that quickly identifies potential hazards before they occur. Sure, things can happen and having a set plan of action for any type of crisis is key, but the majority if not all bad situations are preventable with the proper planning and mindfulness. Double checking locks and clips and clasps of collars, leashes, harnesses can mean the difference in avoiding a vet visit. People may laugh and call it OCD - I call it loving animals enough to take a little extra time for their safety. As a work from home consultant who sets my own schedule, I have the availability to watch over the little ones from my home and to make trips throughout the day to others' homes for play and potty visits. Safety and calm environments can mean all the difference when welcoming a little one into the home. I currently have no pets living with me as our most recent canine companion crossed the rainbow bridge a few months ago from old age. My husband and I haven't felt ready to adopt another puppy yet which creates the perfect space to welcome visiting pups into our home with no potential personality clashes from other animals. There are no children living in the home. It's just my husband and I. He works during the day from the office, but when he comes home in the evenings he loves dogs just as much as I do and is the type their cuteness and sweetness makes him get a bit teary-eyed missing our own little one. We have a lot of love and playful hearts to give and welcome the opportunity to share with your beloved little one. We offer a 2000 sq ft home and although we have no fenced yard, we would prefer to take the little (or big) ones on walks anyway so our eyes can be focused on your pet's safety at all times. We live in a quiet neighborhood not close to any airports or EMS station and we never hear any noises such as sirens, trains, planes, etc. This is a very calm and quiet space. There is no smoking of any kind from either of us. There are no illicit substances in the home of any kind and aside from an occasional beer at a restaurant, neither of us are drinkers. The house is only a year old so there is no potential risks from lead, mold, mildew, etc. We're a quiet couple (you might say boring :) who take our enjoyment from cooking together, taking walks, and finding a good movie. We do not entertain guests and both our families live out of town so there are never loved ones stopping by to startle a pup. As for the safety and respect of visiting your own home, the utmost respect and privacy is 100% expected and respected. My background in substitute teaching and consulting for government projects at times has meant I have undergone extensive background checks. For you this means I'm a person who minds my business and keeps what I see that doesn't concern me to myself and held to the highest standards of ethics, trust, and doing what's right. I have an MBA and also serve on the board of Sachse’s Economic Development Corp. Although I'm old school and was reared to leave things better than I found them, don't worry I won't come in and clean your home. Although I am new to this site and service, I can provide ample personal references who can speak to my character, record, and complete honesty. In my line of work (and in life) there is no sugar-coating - it's best to communicate frankly and precisely. I welcome you to do the same. My personality you’ll learn quickly is I’m always upbeat and smiling - not because life is perfect. I just choose to bc it’s a lot more fun. I have an otter personality and even when it’s work time, there is always an element of fun and adventure. I am very focused and precise when it comes to matters of seriousness. I don’t take chances and hope for the best. Rather, I determine and plan for the unexpected as much as possible.
17. Melany A.
“Melany cared for my 3 cats when I was away on a week-long trip. She went above and beyond to ensure my cats were well taken care of and kept in communication with me for my peace of mind. Aside from the to-be-expected feeding, watering, & litter scooping - Melany spent time playing with and giving my cats full on loving. She even stayed longer when she could to minimize my cats having to feel alone while I was gone. My cats are not usually cool around just anybody, but they have absolutely no issues around Melany - which is HUGE for me. She is an animal lover through and through. She loves animals and they LOVE her. I will always have Melany pet-sit when I need, and I would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I have been working with animals as long as I can remember , I started volunteering at shelters and being a foster parent in my freshman year of high school and way before that I would bring home strays and help the community strays out and would want to keep each and every one of them! I have always had this passionate connection with animals and nature which is to why I am currently beginning my journey at A&M Commerce to major in Pre-Veterinary ! My goal and dream is to become a veterinarian. I had also started my own dog boarding business when I lived in Houston because I had so much free time and a ranch style house with land so I wanted to make the best out of dog sitting and care and give the pets quality care! I recently have just worked at a animal hospital with a years experience of work! I know all the basics to restraints and behavior cues and I as well know how to do nail trims and bathing! I would love to help out in anyways I can please don’t hesitate to contact me :) I’m currently working part time so I am available Monday through Friday 8am up until 6pm. Because I have to take care of my own fur babies as well! I have a fenced in yard with lots of privacy and a good amount of space as well as a shaded patio for my pup and a dog crate that he sleeps in at night time. As to my kitties they sleep with me at night and snuggle!
