Dog Sitting Bayou Vista

About: Hi. Our first dog when I was 6, aLab. An Irish Setter joined the family about 7 years later. Since then more dogs and then during the last 5 years some casual cats. I do some driving for my two sons, school, work, and such but the rest of my days are mine. Early AMs not a problem and preferably not later than 10PM. I am currently only offering dog walking and check in visits. Mentally healthy dogs like me. I'm also pretty good connecting with not-so-mentally-healthy dogs. I'm pretty empathic.

About: With 21 years of military service, I bring a unique blend of commitment, discipline, and attention to detail to every aspect of my life. I grew up as part of the Future Farmers of America (FFA), where I gained extensive hands-on experience in raising pets. This foundation in animal care has shaped my practical approach to dog and cat husbandry. Currently, I maintain a diverse array of animals, including a black lab that I personally trained for duck hunting, a cat I’ve leash-trained to go on walks, a turtle, and a small-scale quail farm. My experience has taught me the importance of precision and organization, which I apply to managing my pets, ensuring everything is in top shape and that the animals receive the best care possible. I finish my workday in the early afternoon on weekdays, and I prioritize your pet during my free time. Your pet’s care will always be my top focus. I’m also available for early morning visits to accommodate your schedule. I treat our pets like family. Without children of our own, our 'fur babies' are everything to us. I care for every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the same love, attention, and care that I give to my own pets.

“Ashley was so quick to respond and helped me during a desperate time. She came to my house 3 days in a row to take care of my babies. I can’t recommend her enough! She kept me informed, sent great pictures of the babies and made sure they had treats and the tv on. I will certainly use her again”

About: i’ve had cats and dogs my whole life so i have plenty experience with both smaller and larger breeds. i currently have an australian shepherd/cattle dog mix, named Apollo. he is an epileptic baby so im also familiar with administering medications, not so much injectable medications though. i also have experience with guinea pigs and hamsters. all pets require love and patience. i’m currently working part-time and studying full-time. my schedules varies week to week but i am sure that we can work something out that fits both your pets needs as well as my own. i will care for you pet(s) however you need or request. i just ask that you give me detailed direction and guidance for what’s typical for your fur baby and any specialized care they may need.

About: Available almost any day. Currently have a part time job typically with mid day hours. I can come walk/run/stop in to visit your pet almost any time, please let me know any special accommodations/requests your little ones need. Right now I work part time. I have availability throughout my work days, and im very available in the mornings. So just let me know if there’s a specific time you need me, and I will try and work it out. I cannot bring your pet to my home, but I will do whatever you’d like! I can sit with your pet bring them to the park, or go walk.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 8 years old and have cared for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals. I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds, from small to large dogs, and I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs. My experience has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to animals, whether that means keeping up with an energetic dog, giving extra care to a shy pet, or maintaining a consistent routine. I truly enjoy being around animals and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m a full-time online college student, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and consistent care. As a single mom to a 9-month-old, I spend most of my time at home, so I’m already in a routine that supports being present, reliable, and responsive to pets’ needs throughout the day. Pet sitting and drop-ins align well with my lifestyle, allowing me to balance school, parenting, and caring for animals without conflicting with a traditional work schedule. I’m able to incorporate feeding, playtime, litter care, and companionship into my day while maintaining a calm and structured environment. This also gives me the opportunity to do something I genuinely enjoy—caring for animals—while earning income in a way that fits my current responsibilities. I take the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet very seriously. I follow each client’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, litter care, medication if needed, and any specific care guidelines. I approach each pet with patience and respect, allowing them to feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I also treat every client’s home with the utmost respect. I keep spaces clean and tidy, follow all house rules, and ensure doors, gates, and entry points are securely handled. I am mindful of security and privacy at all times, and I leave the home as I found it or better. My goal is to provide reliable, trustworthy care so pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

About: I’m a dedicated pet owner with hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs and cats in my own home. I currently have 3 boxers and 4 cats, so I’m very comfortable handling different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I have experience with crate training, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and providing a safe, structured environment. Whether your dog is high-energy or more laid-back, I make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and treated like part of the family. I have a flexible schedule and am able to provide consistent care throughout the day. Since I already care for my own pets daily, I’m used to maintaining routines and making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and boarding, including weekends. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and plenty of experience managing multiple pets in a calm, structured way. I’m comfortable with crate use if needed and always prioritize safety, supervision, and following your pet’s routine. My home is pet-friendly, and I’ll treat your pet like one of my own while keeping you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.

“Sylvia really helped me and jade out.She went above and beyond to look after jade, while I was away for work. I received updates and pictures of my fur baby. I will rebook with Sylvia again in the future. Thank you so much.”

About: I've have dogs and cats my whole life. I've had big dogs and small dogs and cats of all affection levels! At my previous job, I learned pet care is my passion. I want you (the owner) to have a great trip knowing you are leaving part of your family with someone who genuinely cares for them. I recently left a private pet sitting company due to a move so I can dedicate most of my day to your pets and work with your schedule. I pride myself on following feeding, potty, medicine, and all other instructions as accurately as I can! I understand that schedule changes in a pets routine can greatly affect them and want to minimize any and all anxieties for y'all.

“Very responsive and friendly - sent lots of pictures too!”

About: Need an extra dog mom? I'm your gal! With over 12 years of experience watching over others animals, I've done and seen almost all of it. (Though, there are some things that still surprise me every now and again!) Big or small, I've cared for them all! I do drop in visits, walking, baths, nail trims, and in home boarding for dogs 50lbs or less. Not that I don't love gentle giants, they just take up a lot of space! I also have two sisters who are vet techs so if I need them for any reason they are on stand by. Anyways, if you're in need of an extra hand during the day or an overnight stay, please reach out! I'm home all day every day so my schedule is pretty open. If I'm doing drop in visits I prefer going around noon but if I need too, i will make exceptions and go earlier or later depending on what my pet parents need. When doing overnight boarding I make sure everyone is fed, watered, and comfortable. For dogs, I make sure they have plenty of opportunities to go on walks and go potty. I have a fenced in yard where they can roam freely for outside time (supervised of course) When doing inhome visits, I pretty much implement the same care making sure to follow instructions left by the pet parents if applicable.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life. I have never met a pet that did not love me. Man's best friend always. I work a full time job educating our future youth. I am free for pet care weekdays and any time on the weekends, just new to Rover. All my animals live inside my home with the best loving environment. I will treat your home and pet as my own. With the upmost respect.

“Jacell was great to our pup and has great communication, she even brought my Amazon packages inside for me.”

About: Since I was a little I have always loved animals. I have worked at a veterinarian hospital so I am familiar with medical needs for pets. I have spent countless hours volunteering at animal shelters and rescue groups. I have fostered pets from newborn to senior and even special needs. I am fully qualified to care for your fur baby. I’m currently working from home and available to take on a little more responsibility, so I figured why not have fun while doing it :) I have a 10 yr old Chihuahua. Animals are allowed to roam free in the house as long as they’re potty trained. I have a nice large fenced in backyard for them to run and play.

“Maddie is exceptional. She is attentive, compassionate, and truly cares about the dogs she works with. I had complete peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker.”

About: Hi there! My name is Haylie and I’m a nursing student at UTMB. I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of nine amazing pups of all different breeds and sizes. Taking care of them every day has given me tons of experience with all kinds of personalities, routines, and special needs. I truly love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for. Since I was unable to bring my dogs to school with me, I’d love to help take care of others! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I’ll treat your pets like part of my own family! As a nursing student, I’ve learned how to balance responsibility, care, and time management — skills that carry over perfectly into pet sitting. I usually finish my classes around 4 p.m. most days, which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for pets. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure every pet is well looked after, loved, and secure while their owners are away

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind and of every age since I was little. I also pet sit for all my friends and family. I work part-time in the morning till 2:30 pm when I get home from work and take care of my own doggo. He needs more fur friends to play within the fenced backyard or on walks. As I mentioned, I have a fenced backyard and a dog with too much energy for just me, so company and playtime with others would be appreciated.
