“Denise was absolutely amazing! She took fantastic care of our home and dogs while we were away, giving us complete peace of mind. Our pups adored her, and it was clear from the updates she sent that they were happy, well-exercised, and loved. She was reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect when we returned. We highly recommend Denise to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter—we will definitely be booking her again in the future!”


“Jessica took very good care of my boys while I was out of the state for several weeks. I’ve never been away from them for so long before so I was very nervous but after a few days of checking on them and getting pictures, I knew they were in good hands with Jessica.”


“Kenzie stayed with our two Great Danes and was simply amazing! She took care of them as if they were here own. She communicated with us the entire time, and left our home in perfect condition! The pups adored her! Would gladly have her take care of them anytime!”


“I never had to worry about our sweet girl while Mya was staying at our house for the week. Mya was always easy to communicate with and gave great updates. We felt 100% comfortable with her at our home with our dog and we could fully relax on our vacation knowing everything was taken care of and our dog was getting the best attention.”


“Sherri was wonderful with our Scout!!💕 I knew the minute I saw his interaction with Sherri and her with him that he would be well taken care of. I was at ease while we were away and didn't worry about him. Thank you Sherri!!”


About: I have taken care of my own and others pets for 50+ years. I have 3 indoor dogs of my own and have become the official ball thrower to the smallest of my pets because she loves to play fetch. I also care for the Hummingbirds yearly that visit my yard from March till September. I have a full time job but can feed, walk and care for your pets needs after 5 on weekdays and all weekend beginning at 5 on Friday evening. I will care for your pets with as much love as I do my own. Pets are our family and need to be treated and loved as we would our own. I will honor all likes, food choices and instructions given regarding the animals in your home.

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my whole life and have developed a deep understanding of both the physical and emotional needs of animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing safety, comfort, and companionship. Whether it’s handling special dietary needs or simply providing affection and play, I take pride in delivering above-and-beyond care. I will also keep pet owners updated, ensuring they feel informed and at ease. I currently have another job Mondays- Thursdays, however, I can still be available certain times. Fridays, Saturdays, & Sundays I have availability all day. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any scheduling needs or questions if my listed schedule does not fit into what you’re needing. I will work with you! I take privacy and safety very seriously. Rest assured, I will only access parts of the house needed to care for your pet and I will ensure safety of your pet while I am with them. I want to develop trust between us and ensure pet owners know their pets are being well taken care of and loved!

“Laura Rose was great - friendly and helpful. Laura was very good with our dogs, and they and our house were well taken care of. We appreciated receiving photos while we were gone. A positive experience for me and the dogs.”


About: I've taken care of pets for around 16 years as an adult, for others and myself! I would say I have worked with dogs/puppies for about of those years off and on. This included some basics of beginner training for a puppy. My background is in human services, so I love people and pets :) It would be my pleasure to help support with your pet in your home, either drop ins, for a certain number of hours, or overnight, including house sitting. I do best with small to medium dogs, or some larger dogs who do not jump, pull on the lease, etc. I work from home, remotely at this time, so I have a lot of flexibility, and some weeks I can stay in home, and even drive a ways for these situations. Locally, Kerrville, Ingram, and within about a 10-15 miles radius, I can work in some regular daytime stays or drop-in. When caring for pets in my client's home, I focus on following the schedule and engagement in ways the pets do well with. I know some pets are more particular than others about schedules, so this is important. Regular movement is also important to me, so dogs will not be in crates longer than needed/requested. I aim to be available to engage regularly for longer stays as well!

About: I grew up in a pet living home. Experience with all types of breeds and behaviors. Let me care for you pet just how you want it. I work from home and have plenty of extra time for walking, pet care and playing with your pet. They won't even realize you are gone until you return. My care is individually created based on owners preferences and wishes. If medications are needed I have years of experience with giving meds to cats, dogs and exotic pets.

“Kaalah was simply amazing with our pup! She sent pictures and videos throughout her stay and our dog loved her!! We will definitely use her again for staying at our home. I felt so at ease leaving our pup with her while we were out of town!! She deserves way more than 5 stars!! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


About: I’ve loved dogs and taking care of them since I was very young. I currently work at an animal shelter where I regularly give meds, feed, clean living areas, walk, and handle dogs who may be a little more quirky and need more time to feel comfortable with their people/handlers. I know a little training skills, like working with dogs to set before going through doorways and positive reinforcement, but am hoping to broaden my knowledge as time goes on. I have great attention to detail and can keep track of things very well. I work full time typically but my job is flexible, on my days I do work 9-5 I have the ability to leave during my lunch and I have two days off a week. I will take care of a clients dog just the way they would! I know what it is like to worry about who’s care you’re leaving your beloved pets in so I would do everything to ensure that everybody is happy and comfortable!

“We were nervous about having to leave for a last minute international travel and it would actually be the longest time (2 weeks) we would have to spend away from our three loved ones (we have a larger dog, a little dog and a cat). We scheduled a meet and greet and all 3 felt very comfortable around Cheri, so we decided to proceed. It can be scary and uncomfortable to leave your pets with someone you don’t know but meeting Cheri made us more comfortable. She really put a lot of time and effort to send frequent updates with lots of pictures. We really appreciated that she took her time to get to know each of them and clearly put effort into bonding with our fur-babies; we knew it from the accurate reports she shared about their personalities, traits and habits. Her love for animals is impressive and our little ones definitely loved her back. We will certainly be reaching out to Cheri in the future and we highly recommend her.”



“My girls were happy and well cared for while I was out of town for a few days! Kaitlyn was able to help me, even with my last minute request for help watching my girls for a family emergency. They loved her right away and I could tell by the pictures she sent and when I got back that they were happy and healthy. I definitely recommend Kaitlyn for anyone looking for care for their animals.”


About: I am a biomedical science major at TAMU with sights set on vet school. I have been around animals my whole life and have been taking care of neighbors and friends dogs since I was around 12 years old. I understand the great care and attention that is needed for each individual dog when taking care of them and I love doing it. Dogs have been a huge part of my life ever since I remember, and they are what inspired me to pursue the career path that I am currently on. I am a full time student as well as a part time worker, so my schedule is pretty busy. However whenever I do have free time I am more than willing to spend it playing with dogs. I have a dog of my own right now who is very friendly and loves when he gets the chance to play with other dogs. He is not neutered as of right now so I cannot house any girl dogs that have not had their procedure. We have a large backyard that is fenced in all around, except where our driveway enters into it. I live in a quiet neighborhood right beside 2 large parks that are great for walking the pups.

About: I am a mature longtime Pet Sitter with over 20 years pet services experience. I’m reliable, caring, honest and great with all animals! I love being of service to others and walking dogs and pet sitting is something I absolutely love to do. I’d been providing pet sitting in the Austin area for many years and recently have been a ranch sitter in Comfort, Texas since December 2024. I have a handful of loyal clients that have trusted me with their beloved animals for over 10 years. Let me be your companion's trusted companion while you are away or busy at work! I am currently ranch sitting in Comfort, Texas and have plenty of time during the day for drop ins and dog walking. In August 2025 I will be looking for more overnight pet sitting opportunities in the Texas Hill Country. When I am taking care of pets I take the utmost care to be mindful of the animals needs as well as follow the owners instructions to the letter as best I can.


About: DOGS WITHOUT LOVE ARE LIKE HUMANS WITHOUT PURPOSE! I absolutely love dogs. I have a thirteen year old miniature Australian Shepard who thinks he is my third child and is treated as such. I am 47 years old and have a rewarding career in plastic/reconstructive surgery, but also realize that caring for fur babies is yet another true passion in which I truly enjoy! Fur babies need lots of love and attention as well as activity through play dates, park time, hiking, walking swimming etc. Additional Services Include: Groomer drop off and pick up, vet visit transportation and attendance, medication administration and bathing are also offered. I am also available for meet and greets preceding scheduled services. I am available on nights, weekends and holidays. I DO NOT board more than one family’s dogs at a time. Therefore, you do not have to worry about safety. It is in the best interest of your fur baby to not be exposed to others in which could result in physical injury and or harm and or contagious illnesses. Rest assured, your fur babies are completely safe with me. Pictures and reports of your fur babies are sent to you on a daily basis! Fur babies should feel loved and cared for in the absence of their owners much like a doggie vaca! An experienced pet sitter that you can get to know, trust and feel comfortable with whom is much like family is a necessity! I work in the medical field and have the ability to adjust my flexible schedule to accommodate my pet clients needs and or requests on a client to client basis. At the present time-I am not offering boarding services in my home. I believe pets feel more comfortable and at ease in their own homes where they are familiar with their surroundings and specific care instructions will vary per client request which is discussed during our meet and greet session.

About: I have a true passion and love for all animals. They all deserve love and comfort. Especially when their favorite people are gone! With 20 years experience with all different types of animals, I’d be honored to have the opportunity to help your fur babies feel safe and combat the anxiety. I do work a full time job. I am available on the weekends or if needed to pop in when I get off work at 5pm. My weekends are Friday- Sunday. When im off of work, your pets will be my priority 💕 Comfort is key, I’ll be sure to play with your animals/ interact with them and help them feel loved while you’re away. Lots of pets and plays

Elijah O.
“Eli has been pet sitting for us, for a few years, while we go out of town. He does a great job, and he is dependable. We have always had cats and dogs, but he also feeds the donkeys and deer around the property. He has also taken care of our neighborhood pets since he was about 8. Neighbors would ask him to feed their cats and dogs, and tend to them, while they were out of town.”


Jen G.
“Jen has been our house and pet sitter for many years and we are so thankful for her! We feel completely at ease leaving everything in her capable hands. She takes perfect care of all our animals including medications, walks, and snuggles. We particularly love her video and photo updates. Our dogs get super excited whenever she comes over and they don't even seem to miss us. We're especially thankful for her care of our elderly diabetic cat who is on a rigid eating schedule and requires insulin shots twice daily. Our home is always clean and perfect order whenever we get home. I truly cannot recommend Jen enough. She's a lovely person and a wonderful pet sitter.”
