Marisa is the best! She came and sat with our dogs during our wedding with pretty short notice. She gave them lots of love, took them outside lots, and even left us a few Polaroids :) we can’t wait to have her back to hang out with the dogs again soon!!

Our dogs were in good hands while we were away! We had to find someone short notice after our other pet sitter had to cancel and we appreciate Geoffrey accommodating his schedule to take care of our two pups. We received multiple updates throughout the day and were worry free on our vacation because of it! Our dogs are very needy and require a lot of attention and supervision, Geoffrey made them feel comfortable. He also took good care of our house. Highly recommend him and will be using his services again in the future.

She is Awesome… Kaitlan kept our 4 babies for 9 days. She sent updates and pictures each day. We have one guy who is a little cranky and they were best friends after a few day’s. She took them for walks. The house was just like we left it (a nice surprise). She is now my number one and only dog sitter. Thank you Kaitlin for loving our babies like we do. You are awesome!!!

Cassidy was an absolute lifesaver! Our sweet Emma came down with a bad stomach bug, and we had to book care with only about 3 hours’ notice. Cassidy not only accepted the last-minute request but showed up right on time, ready to help before we had to head out to a concert. She took wonderful care of Emma while we were gone and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind. Thank you, Cassidy 🐾

I highly recommend my dog sitter! She did an outstanding job taking care of Triton while I was away. She is always punctual, communicative, and very reliable. Most importantly, she is incredibly sweet, caring, and playful with Triton, which gave me great peace of mind. She followed all of my instructions carefully and kept me updated throughout the entire time. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Triton’s happiness and well-being. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Triton! I will definitely be using your services again and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. 🐾🐾🐾🐾

Sara was an amazing dog sitter to my 2 Labradors. She followed all food and medication instructions, took them on walks when it was cool, and sent me pictures! I loved getting pictures of my girls. She stayed overnight at my house, and she also collected my mail, put the trash containers at the end of the driveway on trash day, and brought any packages into the house. None of these were part of her dog sitting duties. I was very grateful to Sara for all of her help. I will definitely use her again in the future, and I highly recommend her as a responsible dog sitter.

Arturo was fantastic to work with! During our time away he would constantly keep us updated when he would be heading out as well as provide photos of Dottie throughout the day. From our initial meet and greet, we could tell that he and Dottie would get along and from what we heard, she was snuggled up with him all weekend! My partner and I would give him more stars if possible.

About: I love all animals! I volunteer at the Williamson county animal shelter where I am both cat and dog trained. I take dogs from the shelter on doggy day outs and also pet sit for friends and family! I am available to provide drop in visits and walks 3 times a day. I’m also able to stay overnight if your dog needs to feel safe in their own home. I have a kennel at home and a relaxing apartment to pet sit for smaller or medium size dogs. I have a flex/hybrid schedule and I am off on the weekends, and no other obligations, so I have time to take care of your pet! I have a dog park next to my apartment, a nice walking trail, and a comfortable apartment for your pet to relax and feel safe! For check in, I can provide 3-4 check ins per day or how many ever your pet needs. I have a lot of stimulating toys in my car like balls, ropes and a frisbee!

Samara was amazing with our Luna. She took excellent care of both our home and Luna, followed all of our care instructions, and kept us updated with photos throughout the stay. She even accepted a last-minute booking on New Year’s Eve, which we were extremely grateful for. Samara has great communication skills, and it’s clear that she truly sees and cares for dogs as if they were her own. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and loving. We are very grateful for her kindness and care toward Luna.

About: I've taken care of dogs ever since I was a child and had a dog walking business with my sister. I would also volunteer regularly at a second chance animal schelter. I've always grown up with dogs and the occasional cat in my home. I currently am a dog mom to 2 little shih tzus who are my whole world! I am currently unemployed so I am available to take care of your pet when needed. I have a flexible schedule and can come take care of your pet multiple times a day. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow each pet's regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. In a client's home, I maintain their pet's normal routine to help them feel secure and safe.

Ashley was fantastic as a both a home and pet sitter. She takes the cutest little photos, my dogs looked happy and comfortable the entire stay, and she was super response to messages. I have an active dog and a senior dog and she was able to handle all of their needs. I was so relieved when I got home and my dogs seemed to have had a great time and didn't show any signs of anxiety or discomfort. Ashley was such a blessing.

We couldn’t be happier with Val. She made our dogs and cat dreams come true. She played with them to their hearts content. Our Willie, which is a bit more shy immediately took to her. She also did things that were above and beyond, like watering my wife’s tomato plant. I have no doubt that we will re-booking with Val many many times in the near future. Thank you, Val!!

Nhu and Kevin took great care of our 6 yr old boxer that has a heart condition. They administered medication as directed, fed him appropriately (he has a pretty particular diet), walked him regularly, and most importantly let him snuggle all he needed! He usually gets separation anxiety when we leave, and loses weight as a result…we could tell he felt safe and comfortable with Nhu and Kevin because he looks healthy! We got pictures or video every day, which helped calm our nerves about his health and anxiety. They also took great care of the house. They made sure our pup stayed out of the kids rooms, helped with trash days, and left the house cleaner than when we left! (Thank you!) I am looking forward to rebooking them - and I’m sure our dog is , too!
