Honestly I was a little nervous about having someone in my home to take care of my fur babies. We set up a meet and greet with Josh, and before he left that evening my husband and I felt much better about leaving on our trip. Josh did all the things that needed to be done, and then some. He was so good with our rescue dog who is afraid of everybody and everything except for us. Then once my cat came out of hiding, it was just as good to him as he was to Annie. If I could give him a 10 out of 10, I would. Thank you, Josh for helping my husband and I feel safe leaving our pets with you.

This is Rebecca’s second time to watch the dogs for a week. She is great at sending daily photos and notifying if something seems off. She left the house just like it was when she came to stay. She had to keep two girls separate this stay due to heat cycles, hormones and fighting. I breed Shih Tzu’s, so I try to work around heat cycles and puppies to be there with them. But, this time it didn’t work out. She is always respectful of my place and seems to care about my babies as they were her own. I would definitely recommend her! And will be booking her again soon.

Adrian was so amazing with our two pups! Our sweet babies can get very anxious but he kept them so calm and happy while we were away. He sends THE BEST pictures of your babies to update you. We will definitely be booking with him again.

We used Arisha for the first time this past weekend for staying at our home with our beloved fur baby as a trial before we went on a longer vacation. My experience was nothing but positive. She was on time. Communicated regularly. Sent photos and left our house as we had left it. I look forward to using her again and have already booked with her. Highly recommend.

Another great stay by Louann. All the pets relaxed and stress free in her care. She vacuumed and it was cleaner than when she arrived! Glad I've already got 2 spots booked coming up.

About: I'm a stay at home mom of 6 kids and have many pets. I have had dogs and other pets all of my life. I have obedience training knowledge, and have trained all of my dogs. I'm a stay at home mom, so I'm able to provide quality attention. Dogs are let outside every hour (shorter times when weather is hot). I live in a friendly neighborhood to go on nice walks. I have a decent sized yard with an 8 foot tall fence. Thank you for your time and hope to meet soon! *other animal care too* I take care of animals all day every day. My schedule is mostly open, other than kids' activities. Summer schedule is different than when school is in session. I have a large yard with secure fencing. Also can crate your furry friend at night if necessary. I want to treat them like you do in your own home.

Connor was an amazing care giver for our Lily Mae. She is a pup who loves attention and thinks she is a lap dog (at 50 lbs) and he gave her all the love she needed and more. He sent lots of pictures and was so good at communicating with us. The house was just as we left it. We appreciate all of this!

Olivia was great with my cat! He liked being outside and she took the time to sit with him everyday and keep him company. He was very well taken care of and he will now miss her presence! She also sent updates and photos everyday, which was very nice!

Tom is a gem and we were lucky to find him after our relocation to East Texas. We left our home knowing that our babies were in good hands. Tom was respectful of our property and we were very comfortable being away. It was a fantastic experience.

I can’t recommend Alexa enough! We were already out of state when a severe snowstorm was forecasted. She ended up staying snowed in at our house for several days to take care of our pets. My pets love her, even my very shy cat! I really appreciate how great she is at communicating. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, and made sure to let me know her plans and timing. On top of everything, she left the house in fantastic condition. I’m so thankful for her and would absolutely trust her with my pets again.

About: As a previous pet hotel employee, I can say that animal caretaking is one of my favorite things to do. I grew up with numerous pets in my household and providing for them was part of my daily chores. I also had pets in my college home and I was always happy to help feed, play with and take care of those pets. I briefly took care of my families adopted dog, Atlas, before he went to live full time on the family farm. During that time, I was responsible for all care. Including lots of walks and tummy rubs! I work from home full time so my schedule is very flexible! I am able to take breaks in between meetings to let them go potty, give them so play time and more. I have a fenced in yard so your dog would be free to run around outside! I also have a backyard camera for extra security.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years through neighbors and repeat pet-sitting clients for a year. I’m good with feeding routines, walks, crate training, basic medications, and handling multiple dogs. I focus on keeping them safe, calm, and on their normal routine while you’re away. I go to school online & have a flexible schedule most days. I work Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7am–5pm, but I’m available mornings, evenings, weekends, and for overnight care. I’ll graduate with my associate degree in about six months, which will make my availability even more open!! I prioritize safety, structure, and calm environments in both my home and your home. I follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions closely!! I always focus on reducing stress, building trust, and keeping pets comfortable while you’re away.
