Let's make your pet's day together! 🐾❤️
Call us at:469-383-8155 There's No Pet Like Your Pet! We, the happily married team of Mic & Peter, recently moved to Waxahachie after returning to Texas after a few years overseas. Along our married life's journey we have looked after dogs and cats, young and old, plus parrots, finches, canaries, guinea fowl, ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, lizards, chameleons,

saltwater aquariums, donkeys, and monkeys. And we loved them all! So we decided to start our own pet-sitting, dog-walking and house-sitting business! There are a number of VERY IMPORTANT REASONS you should choose us to look after your furry friends:

We are essentially retired now, working together as a team, we have lots of flexibility to devote the time and attention your loved pets deserve - and will take care of your home and property with care and respect. And it's important to note that there are two of us - so we will have at least double the time available for our clients, compared to other sitters. But actually, it is likely even far more than that, as we have no conflicting work commitments and are willing to work 7 days a week, morning to night. AND, because there are two of us, your pets will get double the attention! This makes a world of difference - while one of us is working on the food, the other one can be playing or brushing. ;-)

You will find us super easy to work with, dependable, and trustworthy. With age comes wisdom and also much less partying...! Also, Peter is fluent in German. We provide the FOLLOWING SERVICES for your furry friends:

House Sitting: We stay in your home to look after any member of your furry family while you are out of town. This reduces your pets anxiety to be able to stay comfortably at home. Drop-in visits: We drop by to feed, provide potty breaks and give some loving to your cats, dogs, birds, small mammals, and/or virtually any other pets. Dog Walking: We take your dog for walks around your neighborhood for 30 mins or 60 mins, at the pace they are comfortable with. Please call us to discuss your pet care needs - we offer competitive rates!

We're thrilled to have this charming 12-week-old pup on our schedule twice a day! Our 30-minute visits are packed with engaging activities tailored to keep this cutie happy and healthy. Each session includes a refreshing potty break, followed by a series of fun and stimulating mental enrichment exercises. From sniffing for kibble in the grass or toy box to playing chase with a stick, engaging in tug of war, and learning basic commands, we ensure that every moment is both playful and purposeful.

We wrap up with a soothing quiet time mini massage, helping to relax and strengthen the bond between pet and caregiver. At Mic’s Pet Sitting Duo, we pride ourselves on providing attentive and enriching care that every pup deserves.

At just 9 weeks old, Randi is already proving to be quite the smarty-paws. Last week, we introduced her to a fun mental stimulation game: finding hidden treats in a mini muffin tin covered with balls. In no time, she mastered the little flick of her nose to remove the balls out of the way to uncover the treats! 🎉🐶

Watching her learn and grow has been such a joy, and it reminds us of the incredible potential every pet has when given the right care and attention. That's exactly what we offer at Mic’s Pet Sitting Duo!

This little fluffball is in her prime learning phase, soaking up all the human socialization skills like a sponge before she is old enough to attend puppy school.

Her owners have entrusted me with this crucial mission, and we're having a blast! Who do you think will win this round? Spoiler: Randi's got some serious puppy power! 💪🐶

During this tug-of-war training exercise, I will be working with her to release on command. Early training helps to establish good habits and strengthens the bond between you and your puppy.

🐾 Do any of your furbabies need some mental stimulation during the day? If so, give us a call to schedule a free meet and greet! We can help relieve your pet's boredom while you're at work. 🐶📞 469-383-8155.

If you've ever seen Ozark in action, you know his tail does more than just wag—it performs a full circle, like a rotor blade ready for takeoff!
This "helicopter tail" or "propeller wag" is a surefire sign that Ozark is in a happy and friendly mood. It's his way of showing pure excitement and affection, whether he's greeting a friend or anticipating a fun adventure, like going on a backyard sniffari searching for treats.
Next time you see Ozark's tail spinning, you'll know he's feeling his happiest! 🐶❤️

Let me tell you about Ellie, our charming cat who brings so much joy to our home. With her super soft fur and happy purrs, she adds a touch of feline grace to our lives. Her fur even matches our comforter perfectly—talk about design and function coming together! 😸🛏️

Do you ever look at your cat and feel your heart melt with love? That's how we feel about Ellie every day. Her gentle, sweet personality and quirky antics never fail to make us smile.

As the weather gets colder, Ellie loves to enjoy late-morning sleep-ins after a cozy cuddle in our bed. She's a daily reminder of the warmth and joy our pets bring into our lives. 🐾💕

Cats don't need expensive toys for mental enrichment games.
📦😻A simple box, your cat, and you are all that is needed for an entertaining time and the laugh you get at your cat's enjoyment is priceless!
A simple box can become a world of adventure for your cat. Watch as they pounce, hide, and explore, turning an ordinary object into a playground of possibilities. Your involvement adds an extra layer of excitement, making the experience even more enriching for both of you.
The laughter and joy you share during these moments are priceless, creating memories that last a lifetime.

So, next time you see a box, don't just recycle it—repurpose it into a source of endless entertainment. Your cat will thank you with purrs and playful antics, and you'll find yourself smiling at their sheer delight. After all, the best toys are the ones that bring you closer together.

🎃🦁 It's Halloween costume time, and our cat Tinga is getting in on the fun—or at least we're trying to convince her! We attempted to crown her the "king of the jungle" with a lion's head mask, but Tinga's not having any of it. Her face says, "Get this thing off me!" 😂
Despite her protests, she looks absolutely adorable. We hope your furry friends are enjoying their costume adventures a bit more than Tinga! Share your pet costume photos with us! 🐾🎃

Peter and I had the delightful opportunity to drop in and check on Ozark and Trixi today while their mom and dad were busy.
It was such a heartwarming moment when Trixi started gently licking the inside of Ozark’s ears.
The vet always says Ozark has the cleanest ears in town, so there's no worry about ear infections here!

This sweet gesture is Trixi’s way of saying, "I am comfortable with you, my dear friend, and I love and respect you!"

Moments like these remind us of the beautiful bonds our furry friends share. 🐾❤️

Today was a special day in my friendship with Girl Kitty. Normally, our interactions are brief, and she would often hiss and walk away to go and hide under the bed, leaving my feelings a bit bruised. But this morning was different!

I was greeted with loud meows, and to my surprise, Girl Kitty came up to my hand, rubbing her head against it while vocalizing her pleasure. She devoured all her 'bribing' treats, but then the real magic happened when I introduced her to a pinch of catnip!

Her antics were off the charts! She rolled around, flipped, and rubbed her head all over the place accompanied by a symphony of purrs and delighted meows! I received serious head butts, and she even tried to devour the container of catnip that I held in my hand. After what felt like hours of play, Girl Kitty finally settled in a sunbeam on the carpet, the catnip’s mellowing effect taking hold. She stretched out luxuriously, her eyes half-closed in contentment sending me Kitty Kisses. She was in a relaxed, blissful state.

Catnip targets the "happy" receptors in a cat's brain which can help reduce anxiety and is even recommended by vets for managing separation anxiety when your cat is home alone for extended periods.

I'm thrilled to see this new side of Girl Kitty and now know that catnip is her special treat, a magical herb that can turn an ordinary day into an extraordinary adventure. I am looking forward to more bonding moments with her for the rest of this week’s petsit.💖

Tinga often talks to me using her eyes - so how can you communicate with your cat?

A relaxed and trusting kitty often has droopy, sleepy-looking eyelids. Try sending a ‘Kitty Kiss’ to your cat: meet her sleepy gaze with a relaxed gaze of your own, then slowly close your eyes halfway and gradually open them again. You've just said “I love you” in cat. If she blinks back, you've been honored with a “Kitty Kiss” and her deepest affection!

This is what we strive to do with each of the cats we pet sit—building trust and creating moments of genuine connection.

When pet parents leave their animals alone because of long work days or while they travel, those pets can become bored, stressed, or anxious.😽🙀😿😼

🏡🐾😻During our pet-sitting visits, we can help alleviate those problems by providing them with an enriching environment and one-on-one playtime with Peter & me. We use any artificial or natural item/toy that stimulates a pet mentally, physically, or socially in a fun way. These fun distractions can reduce boredom and stress and give pets a job so that they don’t resort to destructive behaviors 😼while looking for something to do.

👤🐈‍⬛This video demonstrates the importance of human-to-cat enrichment, which is vital for your cat’s mental stimulation, as well as ours!😊

📚As a professional pet sitter, I invest in ongoing learning opportunities to ensure that I am well-equipped to provide enriching and effective care for the pets entrusted to me. I am a member of Pet Sitters International (PSI), and this membership provides me access to exclusive resources, training materials, and a community of fellow professionals.

💟You can have peace of mind when your pets are in my care!☮️

During our visit to Mapungubwe National Park, we encountered a heart-wrenching scene that left a lasting impression on us. It was 4 pm, and we were on our way to the main gate, which was a 30-minute drive away, as the park was about to close for the day. On the road, we noticed two game wardens walking alongside a baby elephant, an unusual sight that prompted us to stop and inquire.
The wardens explained that the baby elephant was lost, possibly abandoned by its mother, with the herd having moved on without it. Overcome with a motherly instinct, I approached the little one, offering it some much-needed affection. Our hearts ached to see this tiny creature alone in the vast wilderness.
The wardens were in constant communication over the radio, awaiting the arrival of a drone to help locate the herd. The plan was to find the herd and then transport the baby elephant, whom we affectionately named Ellie, to reunite her with her family. As we departed, the drone was already airborne, searching for the herd, leaving us uncertain of Ellie's fate.
That night, back at our campsite, we were filled with sadness, wondering if Ellie would ever find her mother. The image of her lonely, vulnerable figure stayed with us, casting a shadow over our evening. We shared stories and speculated about her chances, each of us silently hoping for a happy ending.
The following morning, we tried calling the game reserve for an update, but unfortunately, no one answered our call. The uncertainty was difficult to bear, and our thoughts kept drifting back to Ellie. We couldn't help but feel a deep connection to her plight, a reminder of the fragile balance of nature and the bonds that tie us to the animal kingdom.
As we packed up and prepared to leave the park, we took one last look at the vast landscape, hoping that somewhere out there, Ellie had found her way back to her family. The experience left us with a profound sense of empathy and a renewed appreciation for the efforts of those who work tirelessly to protect wildlife.
In the end, our encounter with Ellie was a poignant reminder of the beauty and vulnerability of life in the wild. It reinforced our commitment to supporting conservation efforts and left us with a lasting sense of connection to the natural world. We may never know what happened to Ellie, but her story will stay with us, a symbol of hope and resilience in the face of adversity.
