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.

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.

Amy is really amazing! We’ve experienced horror stories with other pet sitters but you have nothing to worry about with Amy. We could tell she truly loved our pets and would send us pictures on a daily basis. She was on time and quick to reply to us. We will definitely be repeat customers. Highly recommend!

We had such a wonderful experience with Rebecca! She took amazing care of our dogs and kept us updated throughout the day with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We could tell our dogs were happy and comfortable the entire time. I would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!

Caleb did a great job with our 3 dogs we had one that needed meds twice a day and he did great. I would recommend him to sit your fur babies he stayed at our home and left it clean.

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 does a great job! Housesitting and dog care were his responsibilities for us. It is obvious he really enjoys fur babies. It does not appear to be just an avenue to make money for him. He is professional, courteous, and listens to instructions. Jake and his humans are immensely happy we found him!

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.

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.

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.

We couldn't be happier with the overnight care Louann provided for our dog. Being new to town and nervous about onboarding someone new, she proved to be reliable, communicative, and flexible when our plans had to change last minute. It's clear she truly cares about the animals she watches. We have already booked with her again and highly recommend!

Arisha is absolutely amazing. She was an excellent communicator, sending pictures and updates regularly. She was so sweet to all the animals, even trying to make progress with a very reluctant cat. She took great care of the house as well. I felt so calm knowing she was treating my fur babies like they were her own. She will definitely be my go-to sitter from now on!!

Chris really gave me so much peace of mind knowing that he was at our house with our three rambunctious pups- all were pretty tuckered when I got home, and our home was left clean and tidy! Thank you so much Chris! I’m hoping that our pups get to meet in the future!!!
