You will meet one of our dog walkers or pet sitters who live in The Colony.

It is so crucial that your pet sitter or dog walker is local. The Colony is located in the north area of the metroplex.  You don’t want your pet sitter or dog walker to drive too far to get to you. 

The Colony, Hebron, Lewisville, Plano, Carrollton, Farmers Branch, Frisco, Allen, McKinney, and most areas of Dallas are the main areas our The Colony branch covers.   Less time in traffic means more time in your home with your pets! Plus, the on-call manager monitors each pet sitter’s activity, and we ensure the schedule is followed. 👍🐾

We have a small pet sitting branch here in The Colony that we manage as a small company.  But this small company is a part of a big, well-established, and reputable organization.  Being a part of DFW Pet Sitting Services, Inc. assures our clients that someone is constantly monitoring all visits and communicating with the pet sitters and clients.

The history of our pet sitting branch in The Colony

The Colony branch was an organic extension of our company as our clients were relocating there, and we couldn’t say “No.”  The relationships we form with our clients are very close and personal, and we become their extended family.  Our pet sitters grow fond of their four-legged friends, and our two-legged clients love the consistency.  Our focus is a high level of service quality, and you will always know what to expect.

One by one, we were hand-picking professional pet sitters and dog walkers in The Colony and training them under our brand. Our training process consists of reading, writing, and hands-on experience.  Consequently, we check references.  We also do a full background screening.

Kaye I:

Kaye joined The Colony branch of DFW Pet Sitting in the summer of 2016.  She now has an excellent established client base in the area and takes pride in being a professional pet sitter.  Every client she meets becomes like an extended family to her.  She loves animals and treats each pet she cares for as if he/she were her baby.  As an employee of DFW Pet Sitting, Kaye is professional, reliable, and thorough.  Your babies will be in great hands with her!

And yes, she does have a furry baby of her own!  She adopted a 4-week-old rescue puppy on a Sunday, and they named her Sundae.  She’s a lab-chow mix and is 12 years old now.  She’s got some grey hair now but still acts like a puppy.

Kaye’s favorite thing to do with Sundae is lovely long walks.  She even knows tricks too.  Laying around and lounging in bed is another incredible thing they enjoy together.  Life is good when you have your best friend next to you!!

The Colony pet lovers often choose The Shoreline Trail for a refreshing break away from the city!

If you live in The Colony and have a dog, you probably already know what we are talking about!  The Colony Shoreline Trail is a 3-mile trail that follows the Southeast shoreline of Lake Lewisville.  This beautiful trail winds through the city’s parkland.  It also curves through the US Army Corps of Engineers wildlife management area.  This organization maintains all native preservation. The pebbled and dirt trails perfectly blend the shoreline and the local wildlife.  It is a beautiful place to invigorate your senses and your dog’s.

The decomposed granite structure of the trail blends it nicely with its environment.  Let’s face it: we all love that crunch under our feet as we set out to explore.  If you don’t know what I’m talking about, get on the trail!  Listen to the sounds of your surroundings! And watch as your dog embraces the nature around you, and try to do the same.

This is a fantastic opportunity to mingle with local bikers, hikers, and dog walkers.  And let’s not forget the well-needed break from the fast-paced city life.  Nature can calm a busy brain, and there is no better place to find peace than The Colony Shoreline Trail.
