My Clients

For the past nine years I have been pet sitting frequently for friends and family. I have traveled to the Dallas area and I did pet sitting for a friend for a week at a time for a few years.

Now I have many happy clients that I serve in the 93311, 12, 14, and zip codes. My service area includes an eight mile radius from Brimhall and Allen.

Types of pets that I care for:

Cats, small animals including chickens, dogs may be considered if they are small and have a dog door or potty-pad trained, and are ok with a drop-in structure.
