“Jessica is amazing and a life saver. She adhered to all of my precautions and vet's orders (which were extensive). She was extremely understanding when we had to rush one of dogs to urgent care multiple times this week and managed to help us by feeding 10 newborn pups all by herself (which is incredibly difficult). I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Nichole was very attentive and Lenny enjoyed his time with her. She went above and beyond and paid special attention to him because he was sick, but still took the time to let my other pet out and take care of him. Her background as a VA was a big reason why we chose her, but her compassion and attention to detail is why I'll chose her first going foward.”

“Sara is a dream! Excellent communicator - both by text and in sending photos of my sweet pup. I know she loved on him a lot and assured him while I was gone. I will definitely use Sara again for all of my dog sitting needs!!”

About: I have a genuine connection to animals and care deeply for them. In my own home I care for a senior dog and two bunnies. I always give my animals my first and my best. My schedule is flexible as I prepare for graduate school. My goal is to make some connections with families that need additional pet care that I can work my schedule around to accommodate theirs. In my client's home I will be sure to understand and fulfill all of the specific expectations they have for their pets. I will provide love, comfort and a safe environment for any and all pets. While you are away, at work or just need a little extra support I will make sure your sweet pet feels all the love they are missing.
“We love Amber and our dogs do too! Not only is she super communicative and responsible, but she goes above and beyond during every stay. She’s constantly thinking of new engagement activities for our pups, follows our instructions to a tee (including setting her alarm to ensure our dogs eat and walk on their usual schedule), and she leaves our house perfectly clean. 10/10 recommend Amber!”

“Danielle was great. She was very attentive to all instructions including special feeding instructions, and managed our Great Pyrenees Lily, who has quite a mind of her own, very well, and kept us posted several times a day. The house was left in good order. We will ask her to come again.”

“Sierra is so very good with our two dogs Poppy and Andie. We forgot to turn off a garden house heat lamp and she took care of that for us. Big thanks! We’re sure Poppy and Andie look forward to her next scheduled appointment.”

“Rachel did a great job housesitting our 14 year old beagle! Belle was relaxed and happy when we returned home, and the house was clean. I would definitely recommend Rachel to friends/family :-)”

“As an anxious senior dog mom I could not have asked for a better dog/ house sitter while we were out of the country!! Sent me so many updates & pictures every day and stayed on top of all the niche things our trio of pups require. She even noticed a poisonous snake (tbh idk if i would’ve seen it) in our yard and took the proper precautions with the dogs without hearing back from me yet! I was so nervous to leave our gremlins for so long and about the time difference incase anything came up, but my mind was at ease the whole time and that says a lot (:”

“Jayden did a great job housesitting my dog! She followed all my instructions and was very responsive. She made sure to send me lots of great pictures and updates. I felt very comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands.”

“Bailey took great care of our large menagerie. The dogs snuggled with her and the cats did cat things. We came home and everyone appeared happy and healthy and not terrible upset with our absence. Will book with Bailey again for future stays.”
“Wonderful! Very attentive to my poodles. Helped to address a food issue when one of mine went on a hunger strike. Very respectful of my home. She stayed for 3 days and 2 nites. Great communication! Love her!!”


“Rachel was so amazing! This is my official first time using Rover and she was amazing. Great communication, left the house clean and updated me throughout my trip. Will definitely use her for any future trips for my pup!”

“Marina was awesome ! She watched Pepper over the weekend, she was super communicative leading up to the weekend as we as during :) I am very thankful for her. She did a great job watching my dog!”

“Dominique was great! Super caring and supportive even tho Archie got sick with stomach issues. Super appreciative of his patience and recommendations to help Archie feel better. Thank you for all you did! Would definitely book with him again!”

“Matthew stayed at our place over the holiday weekend, and watched our 2 dogs. No issues whatsoever and he was great about sending us updates and pictures while we were away! Will definitely be booking Matthew again!”
“Thalia was amazing. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my 2 dogs. She loved on them and made sure they stayed on schedule. I will definitely be using her in the future.”

About: I have volunteered with both dogs and cats of all kinds (big and small) and have pets of my own (a Lab mix, a Shih Tzu, and a cat) and have had pets since I was a child. This has taught me that every pet has a unique personality and different needs, so I tailor my care to help each pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy as I have done with my own and any pet I’ve encountered. Whether your pet loves to play, prefers a slower pace, or just wants extra cuddles and attention, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Your pets will be treated like family, and I’ll give them the same patience, love, and care that I give my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I’ll do everything I can to make sure both you and your pet have a great experience. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet the time, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and will do my best to accommodate your scheduling needs. We will start with a meet & greet so I can get to know you and your pets and vice versa :) I always follow your care instructions and tailor my care to their individual needs. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout their time with me :) peace of mind for you is my number one goal!

Danielle was great. She was very attentive to all instructions including special feeding instructions, and managed our Great Pyrenees Lily, who has quite a mind of her own, very well, and kept us posted several times a day. The house was left in good order. We will ask her to come again.

Ericka was very attentive and caring to our two cats during our 6 day trip. She was always sure to send updates and pictures which was a big relief. One of our kitties is shy and apprehensive towards strangers, but grew comfortable with Ericka. She followed our detailed instructions and went above and beyond to make sure the house was in order before we came home. We trust Ericka with our little ones and are so glad to have found her. We hope to book her again in the future.

We hired Ana to watch our dog, Bowser, for a two week trip we were talking. This was our first time leaving him since our other dog passed away 8 months ago, and we were very nervous about leaving him alone with someone new. But Ana was absolutely amazing! She put us so at ease and took wonderful care of our boy. She gave him his medication twice daily, spent lots of time with him both inside and out back, sent us regular updates and pictures, and we came home to a very happy, healthy boy and a clean house. She even cared for my plants while we were gone, too. The last night of our trip, there was an emergency at our house, and Ana handled it so incredibly well. I don't think I'll ever be able to express how grateful I am to her for everything she did and for the amazing care she provided for Bowser.

Nev is the BEST! I can see why they have the reviews and repeat clients that they do! I was so fortunate to have Nev stay at my home with my yellow lab for a week. He was spoiled rotten, but in the best way of course! I need to plan some trips so Ellis can have his playmate back again!! Thank you, Nev~

We booked Parker to watch our 2 dogs for 5 days in our home. One of our dogs is very shy and timid but Parker was able to get her to trust her on the first day. She has a big heart for animals and the care she provided was very evident. We did have an issue on the last day with us getting back home at a certain time but Parker was quick to respond and resolve the issue in a timely manner.

This is the second time we’ve booked with Caileigh, and we’re very happy with the care she provided. She was thorough, attentive, and diligent in managing our dog’s strict seizure medication schedule. We’re especially grateful that Malla remained seizure-free, as changes in routine and stress can sometimes trigger episodes. Caileigh truly went above and beyond, and we’d happily book with her again.

I was visiting San Antonio from out of town while my sister was in the hospital and found myself needing someone on very short notice to sit with my baby, Bear. Lexus responded quickly and immediately put my mind at ease. She took such wonderful care of him, kept me updated throughout the entire visit, sent photos, and communicated consistently the whole time. Being away from your pet during an already stressful situation can be difficult, but I truly felt secure leaving Bear in her care. Lexus was kind, dependable, attentive, and professional. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter and would definitely book with her again in the future.

This was the first time I have ever had someone I don’t know staying in our home watching our animals. Jared was amazing. He came for a meet and greet and the dogs immediately loved him. Our older female border collie usually doesnt love on new people so her reaction was very telling. We trusted Jared with our place for 10 days while we were on the other side of the country. He did an amazing job with texts multiple times a day every day as well as pictures of the dogs loving life. We have a doorbell camera and can confirm Jared took the dogs out every 4 hours as we requested and did long walks with the dogs so they could play. Not just pee breaks. I will definitely be using Jared again and if anyone has any reservations about him please take my vote of confidence. He did a fantastic job.
