Caring for the pets in our community is what we love to do. Monica has always had a strong connection with pets. At Roxie's, your pets are our priority.
She grew up with pets and has always tried to save all the injured insects and critters she's come across. Along with her husband, she started a pet rehoming organization, volunteered at the Rowlett Animal Shelter and served on their Shelter Board. During the 2015 tornado of Rowlett, she even helped in search and rescue efforts for missing pets. In the late 90s, she began pet sitting for friends,
family, and co-workers, which eventually led to her answering God's calling to go all-in with pet sitting in April 2016. In July 2016, she left corporate America and started Roxie's Pet Sitting, LLC, with her husband Rick. By Thanksgiving 2017, Rick joined full-time, and the business has grown stronger ever since. Roxie's is a family, veteran, and woman-owned business based in Rockwall, Texas, with a team of 20 employees. They named the business in memory of their beloved Boxer, Roxie, who passed away in Nov. 2015. The Roxie's team honors her memory every day by providing loving services to pet families in the community. Roxie's serves the cities surrounding Lake Ray Hubbard in Texas, including Fate, Heath, Garland, Lavon, McLendon-Chisholm, Mesquite, Rockwall, Rowlett, Royse City, Sachse, Sunnyvale, and Wylie. We look forward to caring for your furry, feathered, finned, scaled, and shelled babies. Be sure to ask about our other businesses, Roxie's Turd Takers and Roxie's Pro Pet Hero.

Where are our doggie angels? We need you!
This dog belongs to a long-time friend of Monica & Rick. His step-dad is forcing him to get rid of him today and making "or I will" threats. They live in the country in a full, kill shelter area.
Either Blue dies by bullet or by a car or wild animal in the country.
My friend is out walking to keep him away from the house, hence the phone call to us to help.
Neutered male
Good with other dogs and cats
Good with kids
Crate, potty and leash trained
6 years old
Red-Nose Pocket Pitty
We are praying, have reached out to a local rescue and now reaching out to ya'll.
Please Help Us Help Blue Live

"The dogs I know have more soul, more heart, more love, more connection, more patience, and more softness than any human I’ve ever met. They don’t ask for anything—no explanations, no justifications. They just stay, steady and sure, as if they’ve always known what you need before you do.
People complicate love. They wrap it in conditions, dress it in expectations. Dive it towards pain and disappointment. A dog doesn’t do that. Their love is raw, honest, and without strings. Without complications. They see you—not the version you show the world, but the one you keep buried. And they love that version most of all.
I’ve met plenty of people, but none have ever matched the soft, gentle loyalty of a dog. They don’t try to fix you; they just sit beside you, whole and true. Through thick and thin. And that’s more than most humans will ever understand."

We are helping a local family find a new home for their Frenchie. Preferably a home WITH (not without-don't see that very often) other dogs, kids. Most importantly, with a family that perhaps works from home so she can get outside to potty every 4/5 hours.
Her condition is IVDD. She is 3.5 years old. Her condition hit minor months ago. It's hereditary. Both of her parents have it. This condition does not shorten her life span. She simply requires a little help to get outside. She plays great with her siblings and is super fast without her wheels. She loves to play ball. Super cuddly.
We are helping them vet potential families.
PM us with serious inquiries. 🐶

Developing friendships with fellow pet care professionals is one of my favorite things. Today Rick, Kim and I had lunch with a new-to-our-area mobile grooming business, Aussie Pet Mobile of Plano, Allen, and Wylie. They actually cover a LARGE territory from Allen to Wills Point (not just Plano, Allen & Wylie).
Ya'll....🐶🐱.... They groom dogs A N D cats. Yup, you read that right.
We got to tour their state-of-the-art vans. ✝️ While we were touring the van in a large empty parking lot in downtown Wylie this adorable young lady pops up from out of nowhere and says, "Hey, can I pray for you guys?" We told her we were local small businesses uniting for the greater good of pets in our community and I asked her for prayers for both of our small businesses. We felt so blessed by this. I know that was God right there telling us all we were right where He wanted us to be. Her name is Kendall and she works at Coffee at the Hub. She even took our business cards to post on the coffee shop bulletin board. Thank you for your gift of prayer, Kendall.
This couple has a great business model and is a Christian family. We are excited to partner with them in referring business to one another.

Rick & I are at our annual Texas Pet Sitters Conference for our 6th year. Always learning with fellow professional sitters. These people are family. In this industry, we pour ourselves into each other. 💜
Huge shout-out TeamRoxies for holding down the fort so we can attend these events.
Who do I know that is looking for a sweet lap dog? I have a friend whose Mom recently went into assisted living and Mom asked for help finding her baby a new family.
More details coming soon.

Running three pet businesses is not easy. At all! Scheduling, answering calls, replying to texts and social media posts, marketing, doing all the HR, meeting the clients and so much more that our Manager does. Roxie's would not be a success without you, Melissa.
Happy Administrative Assistant Day. We 💜 You!
We can't wait for our grand opening....Coming Soon!

Rick and Monica were fortunate to find each other in the summer of 2014 and wed the following summer in the same exact spot they saw each other for the first time. Rick and Monica have a blended family of 5 children and 8 grandchildren plus countless granddoggos and grandkitties. They share their home in Rowlett, TX with their four dogs: Scarlett (Wirehaired Dachshund), Simon (Papillon), Spencer (Shorkie) and Zeus (Chiweenie). With Monica having been heavily involved in pet rescue over many years, and Rick and Monica having started a pet rehoming and fostering organization in 2015 it made perfect sense for them to enhance their passion of working with animals by launching their own pet sitting and dog walking organization of which they lovingly named in memory of their pet Boxer, Roxie, that earned her heavenly wings in November 2015.
Roxie’s Pet Sitting, LLC is a Christian and Veteran family owned and operated business, based out of Rowlett, TX with a growing number of pet sitters and dog walkers on staff. Roxie’s is fully bonded and insured and is backed by Pet First Aid/CPR certifications. Our team strives to work hard to care for over 500 pet clients per year and are quickly becoming one of the fastest growing pet sitting organizations in our area covering 4 counties and 15 cities.
Our market area covers the following cities in North Texas: Fate, Forney, Garland, Heath, McLendon-Chisholm, Mesquite, Murphy, Plano (east of I-75), Richardson (east of I-75), Rockwall, Rowlett, Royse City, Sachse, Sunnyvale, and Wylie.
