About: I have always loved animals. They are Gods proof of his love for us. Your beautiful fur baby will be in safe hands with me. I am a stay at home mom. My husband and I have five children. Two of them have graduated High School, two are in Elementary School and the last one just turned three. I am enrolled in online school pursuing my masters degree in Adolescent therapy/counseling. My schedule is very flexible especially during the day. I love and have lived by the Cesar Milan method of exercise, discipline, affection when training our family dogs. I love dogs very much but cannot allow being pushed around by them either. Boundaries are very important.
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life and in college I looked after my roommates' and friends dogs of all sizes and temperaments ranging from pomeranians to german shepherds. I've also housesat pets for extended periods of time. I'm currently freelancing, so I have ample time to look after and entertain your pets! I'm available on weekdays to housesit from 8am to 6pm! On the weekends, I can walk your pets or even take them out for a couple of hours weather permitting. I will ensure that your pet is taken care of just like how you would care for them! I am very proactive regarding communication, both positive and negative, and I make sure to ask clarifying questions if I have any doubts to ensure I understand the pet's needs and requirements! I live in the suburbs so my environment is very quiet, however I do not have a fenced backyard so I would prefer not to host any pets unless they are mostly indoor animals.
“Katie was friendly and reliable. I could tell she really cares about the pets she is taking care of. She did a great job with my pup. Will certainly be using her services again. Thank you, Katie!”
“So glad we found Becky for our puppy. She is great with communication, responsible, reliable, and so great with our Bella. I don’t always know if I need a walker until the day before and I always ask Becky first. She responds quickly and tires to make it work for our schedule. Highly recommend her!”
“Shalini was a wonderful dog walker! She took great care of Nala, kept me updated throughout the walk, and sent lots of pictures. I really appreciated the detailed updates on Nala’s behavior. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had many dogs in my family since I was born, have always been an animal person, and worked as a vet tech for 3 years. I have worked with many different dog breeds and have experience with a variety of personality and behavioral traits. I have both dog and cat sitting experience for neighbors, family, and friends. I’m currently a college student with a very flexible schedule, so I’d have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups! I’m usually available any day of the week. I have 3 dogs at home, so I will only be able to offer dog sitting at your pups home. I will be able to take care and play with them from the comfort of their own home.
About: I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life so I am very comfortable (and obsessed with!) every type of fluffypals. I administer insulin to one of my pups daily, and have no issue giving meds to your sick puppy 😉 I was recently laid off and am looking for a (fun and rewarding way) to use my time while I hunt for the right role. Even after that, I’ll be available on evenings and weekends! I have two dogs with a fenced yard - they’re incredibly spoiled….all the cuddles and soft blankets and toys they could want. They get daily walks for exercise and socialization.
“Chili just got back from her first outing with Zachary. She loved him! I received a photo mid walk which was awesome! He has been very easy going, yet attentive to our requests and Chili's needs. Chili looked sad when Zachary was leaving, so I think that's a good sign! I will definitely be booking with him again. :)”
“Kayla did an excellent job with my dog! He has a lot of anxiety and is very afraid of strangers, but Kayla got him to go outside on the first day and they were friends instantly. Highly recommend!”
“Brandon is a great housesitter and dog walker. He is very responsible and professional. I appreciate his services. You can't go wrong hiring Brandon. I will continue to use his services while in Texas. Thanks Brandon!”
About: Animals aren’t just a passion for our family—they are a way of life. Growing up surrounded by pets taught me that every animal has a unique personality, a distinct language, and a special place in our hearts. When you leave your furry family member with us, they aren't just getting a sitter; they are becoming part of our loving home.🩵🐱🐶🩷 I bring years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, species, and temperaments: - 🐱I am the proud parent of a 5-year-old Bengal, so I thoroughly understand feline body language, high-energy play needs, and the patience required to earn a cat's trust on their own terms. - 🐶My husband and I were devoted parents to a gentle Border Collie who lived a full, happy 13 years with us. From her energetic youth to her golden senior years, I understand the love, attentiveness, and gentle care dogs need at every stage of life. - Small Pets & Exotic Experience: Over the years, I’ve cared for 3 hamsters, 2 rabbits, a betta fish, a black king snake and even support my husband’s hobby of breeding red-headed giant carpenter ants! No creature is too big, small, or unique for our home. 🙌Since my high school and college days, I’ve regularly pet-sat for friends and family, treating every single dog and cat with the exact same affection and devotion I give my own. ❤️My core promise to you is simple: I will treat your pets with the same warmth, tenderness, and unwavering care as if they were my own. Expect plenty of updates, photos, and endless love while you are away! I’m a former interior designer from San Francisco, now based in Dallas, working as a freelance baking content creator (making homemade cakes and breads!) and co-founding a pet tag startup with friends. My creative work happens right at home and I am around all day to offer companionship, quick potty breaks, play sessions, and constant supervision. 🏕️We have a fenced yard for outdoor sniffing and lounging, located in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood perfect for daily walks and of course poopies💩 - 👍Sharing Space Safely: I own a very gentle, friendly 5-year-old Bengal who gets along wonderfully with other pets. However, if your cat or dog prefers to be the only baby at home or isn't comfortable around other animals, that is completely fine! We easily set up dedicated, isolated private spaces so every furry baby feels safe and relaxed.
“We recently started working with Morgan, and she has been amazing! She communicates clearly, always shows up on time, and takes great care of our fur baby. I really appreciate her professionalism and consistency. We feel confident knowing our pup is in good hands! 🐾💛”
“Lizzie did a wonderful job walking our husky while we were on vacation! She was flexible and easy to schedule and suggested a meet and greet first to discuss our needs and meet our dog. She provided great communication and feedback following each walk, so we felt confident that our dog was happy and well taken care while we were on vacation. It was a great experience for us and our dog and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!”
“From start to finish, Ahna went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Communication was exceptional! I received regular updates, photos, and messages which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated, I wholeheartedly recommend Ahna. I will absolutely be booking with her again.”
About: I am a dedicated and compassionate animal sitter with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs in a variety of environments. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra support with mobility. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I take pride in providing patient, attentive, and gentle care. I have five years of experience caring for cats and currently share my home with a 5-year-old rescued domestic short-haired orange tabby. Adopting from a shelter has strengthened my understanding of animal comfort, trust-building, and emotional well-being. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment where animals feel comfortable and secure. I encourage regular exercise, walks, and playtime based on each pet’s preferences and energy level. Above all, I truly love animals and am committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. If needed; I do have experience with taking care of "pocket pets" such as (hamsters, rabbits, gerbils, guinea pigs, etc.) I work full time with a hybrid schedule, which allows me great flexibility. Especially on weekends. My schedule makes it easy for me to accommodate check-ins, potty breaks, feeding, hydration checks, and quality time throughout the day. I prioritize reliability and routine so pets feel comfortable, cared for, and secure while in my care. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment where animals feel comfortable and secure. Whether at my home or staying with clients home. Above all, I truly love animals and am committed to treating every pet as if they were my own.

I had a great experience with Braylee! She was very communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and kept me updated throughout the entire visit. My dog is very high anxiety and can be nervous around new people, but she was incredibly patient and worked with her perfectly. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring and capable hands. I would absolutely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again! 🐾💕

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
