“Madison is truly a godsend! She's exceptionally punctual and always keeps the lines of communication open. Our pup absolutely adores her! We are incredibly grateful for her services!”



“Sheryl is amazing! Even our older little doxy who usually doesn’t like people who visit let alone stay has a new best friend. Sheryl is very conscientious and caring of all of our needs and worries of our fur babies. It went so well that now we found her, we plan to travel a bit more knowing everything will be just fine 💜 Highly recommend (even tho I don’t want to share!)”


“We recommend Landon as a fantastic dog sitter. He sent photos and communicated consistently while we were away. Our dogs loved him, and even our neighbors noted how kind he is. Landon treated our home respectfully and followed our care instructions (including helping with our rescue dog who is recovering from heartworms!) We look forward to booking him again!”


“Brittany is responsive and was super sweet! Would definitely ask her to house sit or watch my pets again, and would recommend her. Everything was as agreed and I appreciated getting updates and pictures!”


“Kim has become one of my FAVORITE people!! She absolutely cared for my pups just like we would (maybe better??!! Haha!!). We have a special pup that doesn’t care for new people too much, and she made her comfortable within minutes. Kim has a super sweet spirit, which is sensed by humans and animals alike. She also pays attention to detail better than most people I know, and never missed a beat on the instructions I left for her. You will not ever want anyone else to watch your fur babies again! I’m looking forward to the next time already!! ☺️”


“Sarah did a great job with Sage this weekend, as usual! She's great at keeping me updated and shared some very helpful info about some wind damage that occurred at my house while I was gone. Sage loves her and is always happy to see Sarah!”


“She took care of our two dogs for 4 nights! My dogs loved her, she keep me updated of everything and she also mantienes clean everything that my dogs did. I would definitely book again with her if we need her.”


About: I’ve grown up with a small dog for 12 years and taken care of family and friend’s dog. I can walk, bathe, feed, relax, and play with them! I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. I can make myself free after work to take care of your fur babies as well! I have a large fenced backyard and live in a quiet and friendly neighborhood. I am a type A person and will always have an eye on them especially if outside during the heat. I have no children and no pets so your pup will have my heart the entire time 💜

“Colleen is wonderful! She stayed with my pup for week and took great care of her. She was great at communicating and also very respectful of our house. I will definitely use her services again!”


About: My mom has been a dog groomer for as long as I can remember, so I’ve grown up around animals and learned how to care for them from an early age. I offer dog sitting, walking, washing, and am happy to help with any other care your furry friend might need. Ask me about my loyalty program! I’m currently attending school at TSTC, so my education is my top priority. However.. with that being said, if you’re entrusting me with your pet(s), I will always go above and beyond to treat them like my own. Most weekends, I’m fully available. I am comfortable around animals and I respect their space. Every animal is different with their own needs and quirks, so my goal will be to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs throughout my life of all ages. I’ve had a few dogs of my own that I’ve raised since they were puppies. I’ve had neighbors ask me to pet sit for them. I can bathe, feed, walk, and play with your animals! I am in college in Waco Texas during the school year (August-December & February-May) and am available any weekend to look after your pets! I am also back home in Spring Texas during holiday breaks and the summertime (November 19-25 & December-January & June—August). I can do most anything you ask of me. I will also do the basics: walking, feeding, keeping an eye on their health, entertaining, etc.

About: I love to play and give pets to animals . I’m a big petter/ cuddler and giving treats and just living on them as much as possible. I’m off for the summer (yay) so plenty of time to take care of your fur baby! Lots of pets and fun will be had! I have a fenced yard and my dog loves to run around it in , he chases squirrels a lot and loves being outside .

About: Throughout my whole life I have surrounded myself with animals! I grew up with 4 cats and a dog, a rat, and some pet fish. I absolutely love all animals and enjoy interacting with them! I also have experience taking care of chickens. Pet care fits into my life by being a full time job, I have 2 sons but we always find the time to provide excellent service when needed. I love to spoil my animals, I have 2 dogs who every morning receive dental treats, in the afternoon they have a rawhide free bone, and then in the even they enjoy purine one with salmon oil and pumpkin chunks. We love to go on walks and explore different trails, we even frequently go to the dog park.

“Sarah was amazing! I needed a last-minute sitter for my dog, Milo, and she came through. She kept me updated the entire time with regular messages and adorable pictures of my pup, which was awesome. Milo absolutely adored her… and if he’s happy, I’m happy! I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”


About: Hello! My name is Jenna. I'm trying to find someone who needs help taking care of their pets! I love animals and would love to spend time with your furbabies. I enjoy taking walks and having company with me would make the walks so much more exciting. Plus, everyone involved gets some exercise!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every dog I care for. I have experience with all kinds of pups—from playful puppies who need structure and gentle training to sweet senior dogs who need extra comfort, calm, and medication support. I always aim to create a safe, loving environment where your dog feels at home. I treat every dog like family, and I’m committed to keeping their routines, personalities, and special needs top of mind. Pet care fits perfectly into my current routine! I recently graduated with a degree in psychology and while I’m exploring full-time job opportunities, I have a flexible schedule. I help my parents with their restaurant business, but most of my days are open—so I’m able to give dogs the time, attention, and care they need without rushing. Spending time with pets is something I truly enjoy, and it adds joy and balance to my week! I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets feel most comfortable and secure in their own environment. I’m very respectful of each client’s space and routines, and I always follow care instructions closely—from feeding and walks to medication and playtime. I treat every home and every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.
