“Kendra did a great job, even though there was a winter storm she still went thru all the trouble to make sure my dogs were taken care of, she’s very attentive, kind to our dogs and great communication with us, throughout the stay.”

“Jennifer is so amazing with our needy pit pull. She understands his need for super human snuggles and he is always such a happy boy when we get home. We also always appreciate how flexible she is.”

“Emely watched my four dogs while me and my family traveled to Hawaii for ten days. I have never been able to leave my dogs or felt comfortable doing it til Emely came along. She’s a God send. She was patient with coming over to get to know them before the trip. My dogs had five star care and I will be a repeat customer. She followed my instructions and even asked me questions if I left something out. She sent plenty of pictures and videos for updates. It was a pleasure and my dogs love you so much and you are now family. Great Job we appreciate you !”

“Eboni handled my pets very well! I have a mini pig who is constantly testing and needs lots of attention and firm instruction and Eboni handled it very well and I came home to a very happy pig. She also cared for my chickens well. Eboni is a quick learner and respects the rules you have for your pets and your home and gives them lots of love and attention. She is also someone I was very comfortable leaving alone in my home and left things neat and clean after a few days pet sitting. I highly recommend her.”

“Barbara always takes such good care of our dogs! She stayed at our house this time and did a wonderful job. We love receiving the regular updates she sends. We know Dixie and Cupid are in great hands with Barbara!”


“Janette was flexible, responsive, and responsible. She managed to give our cat her steroid medication. She took good care of both my fur baby and the house, and we appreciate her very much. I would recommend her to anyone.”


About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats and have owned both! Pet sitting isn't just a job for me, it brings me joy! I've been around animals all my life and I am also bilingual! I work part time only 8am to 1pm so I am fully available after that! On Saturdays I work 9-3! I'd love to fit in pet care anywhere after! I care for my 2 cats with constant love, attention, play time and stimulation! They are very well loved! I have also taken care of my family dog for almost my entire life! No matter what age or breed I am %100 capable!
“Regina is great! My puppies just love her and I highly recommend her! One of my pups is very skittish and he warmed right up to Regina and even ate his dinner for her. Thank you so much Regina for watching my pups! Sherry Seale”

“Christy is a phenomenal sitter. She gave excellent details about what was going on and sent many pictures, which we were very grateful for! I would 100% recommend Christy to anyone needing a sitter, she’s the best!”

About: About me: I have time & quality care to give to the pet(s) you love while walking or pet/house sitting because I'm an online college student. I have 22 years of dog, cat and other pet care experience to include pet walking, training, transporting, vet visits & pet/house sitting listed in detail below. I'm starting in the job field of Animal Behavior on completion of my college degree. My previous career of 21 years was in oceanography, & I look forward to giving your pet the love and attention they deserve. Experience in DOG CARE: In the last 22 years, on the side of my regular job, I have been trusted by family, friends and new clients via word of mouth to pet sit for canines of all sorts to include senior dogs, dogs with cancer, high energy dogs, shy and nervous dogs, a Great Dane, puppies and multi-pet households. Experience in CAT CARE: I've been cat sitting for 21 years for senior cats, cats with diabetes, cats with swimmer’s syndrome, one cat in a wheelchair, shy cats, active cats, multi-pet households, hairless cats, indoor/outdoor cats, indoor only cats, outdoor only cats & kittens. ADDITIONAL PET CARE: I also have 22 years' pet sitting experience with other pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, fresh water fish, turtles, geese and pigs. In my free time, I've rescued, rehabilitated, trained, fostered and been a pet owner to both dogs and cats in Texas, Virginia, California, Hawaii, Spain and the Kingdom of Bahrain. I have also volunteered at animal rescue and no-kill shelters in all of those places as follows: Humane Society, PAWS of Texas, Hawai'i Bird Rescue, Hawai'i Marine Animal Response, Rota Animal Welfare League Spain, and Bahrain SPCA. I am available for walking, pet/house sitting, pet care, vet visits, pet transportation and moving because I'm a full-time online university student. I have my own reliable transportation to come to you, but I do not have the availability to board animals in my residence at this time. My goal is to keep your pet(s) in their routine with the same worry-free, stress-free care as you have set up for them for walking, pet/house sitting, pet care, vet visits, pet transportation or moving. I have my own reliable transportation to come to you. I offer pet transportation in my own vehicle as well, but I do not have boarding facilities available at this time.
“I was so pleased with Tania, would I book her again absolutely. I probably have to leave Kittycat no more than twice a year and so she is not use to having a person she doesn’t know live in her house, but Tania loved her and took care of her so well the pictures that Tania sent showed how Kittycat was completely comfortable and well looked after. Thank you again Tania.”

“We were hesitant on leaving our sweet girl with a stranger but after meeting Ava, the fears were put yo rest. Ava sent pictures while we gone and our girl was a happy dog. Ava did a fantastic job and took really good care of her. Thank you!”


“My quick review is Cidell was prompt, knowledgeable, responsive, and trustworthy with house sitting my dog - I highly recommend him for your pet sitting needs! Now here’s the details: Cidell house sit my Rott boxer mix for 3 nights. Tank, my dog, was extra stressed due to my son recently moving out of the house and then the fact that he had never stayed with a stranger that long. Cidell was amazing- he kept me updated on Tanks well being, and by day 3 Tank was more calm and relaxed then when Cidell first arrived. I felt assured Tank was in good hands and Cidell was great at keeping him to his daily routine. It was also nice coming home and seeing the house in the exact same condition as when I left. I don’t normally leave reviews, but I am so impressed with the professional and caring manner that he dealt with Tank, that I wanted to let people know Cidell is your guy if he is available.”

Kathy went above and beyond during her house sitting. She took great care of our 2 dogs! Made sure to keep us up to date with new photos of her walking them and them being lazy throughout the day. One of our dogs has to take thyroid medicine twice a day & she ensure our dog kept up the routine. When we go back she had even cleaned up the house and left it better than when he left for vacation! 5-star and highly recommend
