Keep Halloween all “treats” and no “tricks”! Before a Zombie knocks at your door, move your pup or kitty to a room where they’ll feel safe and secure. Keep all candy out of reach, and please don’t put a dog or cat in a costume unless you know they love it.

🐾 MEET BRIAN 🐾

We love introducing you to the amazing people who make up the Top Dog Pet Sitters team! Today, we’re getting to know one of our pet sitters a little better. Brian has been part of our team since 2023- it seems much longer! ❤️

🐶 What is your favorite thing about working with Top Dog Pet Sitters?
I love learning all the animals’ distinct personalities and discovering how each one prefers to be spoiled. Working with animals is the best kind of therapy!

🐕 Are you a dog person or a cat person—and why?
Definitely a dog person! There’s nothing like a dog greeting you whenever you get home. 🐶❤️

🐾 What dog breed best matches your personality?
A Mastiff! Huge body, bigger heart, always wants to snuggle—but may drool and snore. 😂

🏡 What is something most people don’t understand about being a professional pet sitter?
Patience, accountability, and paying attention to the small details are incredibly important. We’re going into a pet's home, and we have to earn their trust in order to care for them. Every pet has their own concerns, anxieties, and stressors while Mom and Dad are away. Our goal is to alleviate as much of that as possible by loving on them, caring for them, and learning their specific needs.

📺 What is your favorite TV or movie pet?
BJ from BJ and the Bear, Smokey from Smokey and the Bandit (showing my age! 😂), and Marmaduke.

🤓 What is your most useless talent?
Useless trivia knowledge—and I’m a bit of a history buff!

💬 What could you talk about for 30 minutes without any preparation?
I’m a Special Education Teacher by trade, specializing in helping young adults with disabilities find and maintain employment in their communities. I find myself talking with business owners and managers about the benefits of giving one of my students an opportunity to volunteer or work for them in some capacity. I could talk about this endlessly!

🐱 Tell us about a pet you have cared for that you’ll never forget.
There have been so many! Souljaboy was a cat who always wanted to snuggle. Duke had such a great spirit and personality, especially for an old boy dealing with serious hip issues. I’ll also never forget my childhood Basset Hound, Rosie, or my wife and my first pet, Samson, who survived Parvo as a puppy and went on to live for 14 wonderful years. ❤️

🐾 And finally, tell us something else we should know about you!
I currently have three rescued dogs from the Collin County shelter, ranging in size from 125 pounds to 40 pounds. And, yes, I also have two very overweight guinea pigs at home! 😂🐹🐹

Clearly, animals are a pretty big part of my life—and I wouldn’t have it any other way! ❤️

We're proud to have pet sitters who don't just love animals—they take the time to understand them, earn their trust, and care for them as individuals.

❤️ THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY. ONE VERY IMPORTANT JOB: TAKE CARE OF LILY. 🐾

When Lily’s family planned a long trip to China, they had one big concern: Who could they trust with their senior dog who had health issues and special needs?

They knew they needed more than a nice person. They needed a professional team prepared for the unexpected.

That’s where Top Dog Pet Sitters came in.

Lily received four visits every day, with Stephanie, Melissa, Michele, and Ravin caring for her special diet, medication, and occasional need for a soft cone.

And then… the unexpected happened. 🐜

While Lily’s parents were thousands of miles away, ants began coming into their home. Our team calmly stepped in to help manage the situation while keeping Lily’s safety our top priority.

Because that's what professional pet care is about.

It’s not just showing up, feeding the pets, and leaving.
It’s being prepared. Paying attention. Communicating. And knowing what to do when something unexpected happens.

Lily’s family received photos and a report card after every visit, so they could see their girl eating, playing, going potty, and getting lots of love—even from the other side of the world. ❤️

And when they came home?

Lily was happy, healthy, and clearly very well loved.

Their words to our team meant so much:

“The people at Top Dog Pet Sitters truly felt like family to us.” ❤️

That is the kind of trust we work hard to earn every single day.

🐾 CPR & First Aid certified team
🐾 Background-checked employees
🐾 Backup coverage
🐾 Visit reports & photos
🐾 GPS-tracked walks
🐾 Professional systems and communication
🐾 Care for senior pets and pets with special needs

Thank you for trusting us with Lily and for allowing our team to care for her while you explored the world. We are incredibly grateful. ❤️

🐾 MEET PAM! 🐾 Who is also a client!

We’re excited for you to get to know another member of the Top Dog Pet Sitters team!

🐶 Favorite thing about working with Top Dog Pet Sitters?
Playing with cats and dogs while their people are away. Honestly, what could be better?

🐱 Dog or cat person, and why?
Cat person! They are simply the perfect pet. Not too demanding, but loving in their own way. And nothing beats having them purr and make biscuits when you love on them. ❤️

🐾 What dog breed best matches your personality?
A Dachshund. I appear cute and cuddly, but I have the soul of a hunter. 😂

🎬 What's your favorite animal movie?
The Art of Racing in the Rain. 🐕🎬

🧠 What's your most useless talent?
As a former French major, I am really good at Trivial Pursuit. 🇫🇷🧠

💬 What's one thing you could talk about for 30 minutes without preparing?
Just about anything! I recommend not making eye contact with me if you do not want to get sucked into a long-winded, one-sided conversation. 😂

We're so glad Pam is part of the Top Dog Pet Sitters team! 🐾
