For many people, a dog or cat isn't just a pet. They're family. They provide companionship, comfort, routine, and unconditional love. That bond can become even more meaningful as we grow older.


At Edgemere in Dallas, many residents enjoy the companionship of beloved pets. Whether you live in the independent living community or at The Plaza at Edgemere, the assisted living community, having a trusted helping hand can make pet ownership easier while allowing you to continue enjoying life with your furry companion.


That's where The Pawfessionals Dog Walkers & Pet Sitters can help.


Supporting Independence Through Pet Care


One of the greatest benefits of living at Edgemere is maintaining an active, independent lifestyle. For many residents, keeping a pet is an important part of that independence.

There may be times, however, when walking your dog becomes more difficult. Perhaps you're recovering from surgery, not feeling your best, traveling, or simply want a little extra assistance.


Our goal isn't to replace the relationship you have with your pet. It's to support it.

Whether your dog needs a midday walk or your cat needs daily care while you're away, we're here to help whenever you need us.


Services Designed for Edgemere Residents


Because we regularly serve residents at Edgemere, we understand the community and its routines. Our services can include:


  • Daily dog walks

  • Puppy potty breaks

  • Cat visits

  • Fresh food and water

  • Medication administration when requested

  • Litter box maintenance

  • Pet taxi transportation to veterinary and grooming appointments

  • Home boarding, by invitation and availability

  • Vacation pet care

  • Regular wellness visits while you're away


Every visit includes personalized care based on your pet's routine and personality.


Familiar Faces You Can Trust


One advantage of working with a professional pet care company is consistency.


Whenever possible, we assign the same pet care professionals to your visits so your pet becomes comfortable with familiar faces. Our team members are carefully selected, background checked, insured, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals.


We understand that trust is especially important when someone is caring for both your pet and entering your home.


We Work Around Your Schedule


Whether you have a doctor's appointment, physical therapy, lunch with friends, family visiting, or simply need a little extra help for the week, we're happy to provide care that fits your schedule.


Many of our Edgemere clients use us on a recurring basis, while others call only when they need an extra hand.


There is no one-size-fits-all approach. We tailor our services to meet your needs.


Peace of Mind for Families


Many adult children live outside the Dallas area and appreciate knowing their parent's pet is receiving dependable care.


After each visit, we send a detailed visit report with notes and photos whenever appropriate, giving both residents and family members added peace of mind.


It's reassuring to know that someone is checking in on a beloved companion and making sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for.


More Than Dog Walking


Professional pet care is about much more than exercise.


It's about preserving routines, reducing stress, providing companionship, and helping pets remain happy and comfortable while allowing their owners to continue enjoying life together.


For many seniors, having a dependable pet care partner means they don't have to choose between getting the help they need and keeping the companion they love.
