Backyard Home & Pet Sitting
Backyard Pet Services offers comprehensive pet sitting solutions tailored to meet the diverse needs of pet owners in McKinney, Texas, and surrounding areas including Allen, Fairview, Prosper, Melissa and Frisco. Cathy Davis founded Backyard Pet Services after retiring from 30+ years as a CPA and management consultant with one mission in mind: to alleviate pet owner anxiety.

The company cares for all types of pets including dogs, cats, birds, fish, hamsters, gerbils, chickens, snakes, bearded dragons, hermit crabs and more.
Services Offered:
- Pet Visits: After an initial meet and greet, sitters visit your home 2 to 5 times daily, depending on your pet’s age and activity level. Each visit lasts 20-30 minutes, allowing time for feeding, fresh water, playtime, and a short walk if part of your pet’s routine. Each visit concludes with an update and photos from your sitter so you can be worry-free while you’re away.

This service line was founded on the principle “skills not pills” as the firm believes almost all behavior issues can be resolved through the patient, loving, and respectful relationship between parent and pet.
