“Dog hair is my favorite accessory!”
I have been the go to pet sitter/walker for the last 7 years for several physicians in the area. I’ve never met a pup that I didn’t love! I’m very loyal, honest, caring, and treat all the babies that I care for as if they are my own. What could be better for an animal lover than to have the opportunity to spend time with animals, and create a fruitful income doing it?!

Hi I'm Tom. My whole life I've grown up with and loved dogs. I have walked our family dogs and those of friends including our sweet Husky Cody and my girlfriend's affectionate Wheaten Terrier. I run daily for my marathon training so I'll hopefully keep up with your buddy okay. While I presently don't have any dogs (I have four cats who are very special), I know how beloved your furry companions are to you. I hope to see you soon.

Hi there! I'm Nancy and I have been in the N Dallas area since the age of three. In my lifetime I have had a Poodle named Micah, a Spitz named Fluffy, a lab/pit (with allergies) named Pudge and a Beagle named Andika who have all since passed. We now have a Chihuahua named Bo and a Chihuahua/Schnauzer named Kitty. We have trained/raised all of our dogs from 6-8 weeks of age. Kitty has had 2 litters! I love meeting new dogs and loving on them. I also love exercising and being outdoors. Every dog has his/her own unique traits, from allergies to energetic. I would love to meet your dog and show him/her the same love, adoration, and care I give my own. Let me give you and your fur baby a great Wag! experience to the best of my ability.

Hi, I'm Britany. I have lived in the Dallas area all my life, except while in college. I have walked dogs my whole life, first beginning with my own, and then moving on to friends and family. While in college I volunteered at an animal shelter where I walked, fed, bathed, and cared for the animals - and I loved it! I have always been a Fur-child owner and believe all dogs are our fur-children; so just know that your precious Fur-child will be treated with the same love and care as my if they were my own during our walk times together!

Dog Boarding in Plano
Plano is a suburb of Dallas, Texas. Situated to the north of Dallas, Plano is rapidly expanding, and with this expansion, the city is seeing an increase in homeless pets. With two animal shelters in the city, many of these homeless animals are being taken off the streets and cared for. Both the Plano Animal Shelter and the Second Chance SPCA are currently caring for hundreds of stray animals in the area.
The Second Chance SPCA is a non-profit, no-kill animal shelter in Plano. Since its opening in 2006, the rescue has taken at-risk dogs and cats from local animal shelters to spare them from being euthanized. The shelter provides animals in its care with food, water, shelter, and medical care. The animals are also given love and attention that they would not otherwise receive. Since 2006, the shelter has rescued more than 3,200 dogs and cats that were supposed to be euthanized at other shelters in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
The Plano Animal Shelter is part of the city government, so they receive most of their animals from the Animal Control department or owner surrenders. If the owner of a pet doesn’t claim it within the required holding period, the animal becomes the property of the city and then waits in the Plano Animal Shelter until it can find a new home.
If you live in the Plano, Texas, area and are looking for a new pet, consider visiting one of these shelters to help an animal find a forever home.
