Mia is such a pro! She’s my go-to for house sitting and goes above and beyond, even took my husky to the vet when needed while I was gone. The best!

Madison watched my Rottweiler for a full week. She sent pictures and videos every day of them playing and relaxing. My dog seemed very calm and well taken care of when I got back. The house was very clean. 5 stars.

About: I have a passion for all animals. I am an educator by profession for over 22 years and have cared and owned pets all my life ( dogs ,cats, pigs, cows and horses). I am a semi professional marathon runner and believe not only people but animals benefit from a daily exercise regimen! I am dependable, trustworthy, and loyal. I strongly believe in the welfare of all animals. I will walk or run your dog but due to extreme South Texas summer weather, I will only do it very early morning or evening when its cooler. I will do drop in visits daily as needed. I will send you pictures and videos our your furbabies while you are away. My dedication and compassion for animals set me apart from the rest!

About: What sets me apart is that I am well-rounded and able to care for any animal, no matter the size, from pups to larger breeds. I have a strong passion for looking after animals so much that I’m currently pursuing a college degree related to conserving and saving our animals on this earth! I bring a sense of relief knowing your pet will stay safe while also staying happy and loved. Since I’m a college student, my schedule will be mostly free this summer. So I will have plenty of time to care for anyone’s pet at any time, no matter the circumstances. If you have an emergency trip, I will be available, or if you want to relax on vacation while also ensuring your pet is being well taken care of at home, I’m the person to call. I care for pets while I’m sitting by following strictly the rules given by the owner, as I want to ensure a safe environment not only for the pet but also for me and the owner's home. I’m very playful with them, or if the pet has more of a chill, calm type of behavior, I will go along with what they are more catered towards. I check on the pet's food and area of the house every few hours and make sure the pet is also feeling happy and calm.

Gabby was the best. We moved with our doggies to a different state/town and had to travel again without them immediately after arriving to our new home. The dogs were happy and safe and adjusted well to their new environment with her help. My apartment was clean and well cared for and she even made sure to unplug any cables as a safety precaution when she left. Totally recommend Gabby 💯 and I'm looking forward to having her care for my pup again!

About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was young. I love all types of animals and animals tend to love me. I promise to take care of your pet as if it was my own :) I work full-time, but I have a pretty flexible schedule as far as when I can drop in and out. I’m available full-time on the weekends, but my schedule has never interfered with my being able to take care of an animal. I currently sit outside of Rover and now I’m on here :) I’m very observant of animals. I currently have a senior dog and so I’m hyper aware of what he does. So, this makes me hyper aware of other people‘s pets as well.

About: In my home, every pet is treated with love and care as if they were my own. They’re free to roam, snuggle on the couch, or nap wherever they feel most comfortable. My home is completely pet-proof, with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, always supervised! I always go the extra mile to make pets feel safe and cared for. Once, I was given a dog with no crate or blanket and told he was house-trained. He wasn’t. With patience and love, I helped him adjust, gently crate-trained him, and gave him a cozy blanket so he could feel secure. Moments like these remind me how important it is to treat every pet like family. I kindly ask that you bring your pet’s essentials, like food, bowls, and favorite items, along with their routine so I can keep their days feeling familiar and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and happiness mean everything to me, so I cannot accept animals who show aggressive behavior. Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my weekly routine as I’m available every day. I am currently attending university, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I maintain calm, pet-safe spaces, follow feeding and potty routines, give slow introductions, double-check leashes, and offer comfort like blankets, toys, or crate time when needed.

Natalia was absolutely amazing with my 12-year-old pup, Phoenix 🐾—who is definitely a picky, demanding little diva 😄. She handled her meds, nighttime wake-ups, and constant need for affection like a total pro. I got great updates and could tell Phoenix was genuinely comfortable and cared for during her overnight stay. It’s not easy trusting someone with a high-maintenance senior dog, but Natalia made it feel effortless. Will 100% be booking with her again—highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

She is excellent! I highly recommend her for dog sitting. She kept in communication with me throughout the entire dog sitting. She sent me pictures of cuddling with my dogs which I really appreciated. She also took good care of my home while I was gone. She is awesome and I would recommend her to everyone.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a farm caring for many different types of animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve also trained several of my own dogs, giving me experience with basic obedience, routines, and handling pets with different energy levels and temperaments. In addition, I’ve pet sat for friends and family many times, caring for pets as if they were my own by providing plenty of love, attention, exercise, and dependable care. I’m passionate about creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for every pet I meet. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule during the weekdays and full availability on weekends. I currently work full time during the week, but I’m able to leave on breaks and also accommodate early morning visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins. My weekends are completely open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for easily fits into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure they are happy and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience handling animals with different personalities and energy levels, so I’m patient and adaptable with each pet. Whether it’s walks, potty breaks, play sessions, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also respect my client’s home by keeping everything clean, organized, and following all instructions carefully.
