“Fantastic service and highly recommended. He took my 6 pound toy poodle on a 30 minute walk, ensured she was safe, comfortable, and happy, communicated throughout. Devon was friendly, punctual, trustworthy, and clearly passionate about dogs. I'll definitely book again!”

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for cats and 6 years with dogs, I bring both heart and expertise to every pet I meet. I’ve provided 24/7 care for neonatal kittens, worked closely with adult cats, and have hands-on experience with basic dog training. My deep understanding of canine and feline behavior helps me create a calm, safe, and happy environment—whether it’s for a walk, playtime, or overnight care. Your pets are treated like family! I currently go to school for full time, however I do have a lot of free time between classes. I’m a theatre technician student but most of my classes are online, which gives me flexibility. I have two cats who are on a strict feeding routine. They are alternated between dry and wet food which I add other things to like chicken hearts or salmon oil, just depending on what I have at that time for them. They both have a lot of energy so they get plenty of play. However, I still like to find different forms of enrichment for them just to keep things interesting. Regarding pet care for my clients, I love detailed information about the pet such as their feeding times, behaviors, and needs. It’s very important to be that every animal I care for be comfortable, safe, and happy.
About: With a bustling household featuring two energetic dogs and four charming cats, my pet care experience is a delightful whirlwind of furry affection and joyful chaos. From the morning cuddle sessions to evening playtime antics, I’ve mastered the art of juggling the diverse needs and personalities of your furry family members. Whether it's administering medication with finesse or deciphering the nuanced purrs and barks that fill your home, you're a seasoned pet caregiver who approaches each day with boundless love and dedication. My home is a haven where tails wag and whiskers twitch, where every paw print tells a story of shared adventures and unconditional companionship. I currently work part time with most of my availability being in the afternoon but more than willing to working anything out in the mornings. I have open availability on Saturdays and Sundays! Caring for pets in a client's home involves several key elements to ensure their well-being and happiness: 1. **Feeding and Watering**: Provide regular, scheduled meals tailored to each pet's dietary needs. Ensure fresh water is always available. 2. **Exercise and Play**: Engage pets in stimulating activities and play sessions to keep them mentally and physically active. This might include walks, playtime with toys, or interactive games. 3. **Grooming**: Brushing, bathing (if necessary), and grooming pets to maintain their coat health and cleanliness. This also includes nail trimming, ear cleaning, and dental care. 4. **Medication Administration (if needed)**: Administer any medications as prescribed by a veterinarian, ensuring accurate dosage and timing. 5. **Litter Box Maintenance (for cats)**: Regularly clean and maintain litter boxes to ensure a hygienic environment for cats. 6. **Monitoring Health**: Keep an eye out for any signs of illness or discomfort and promptly notify the owner if any concerns arise. 7. **Safety and Security**: Ensure that the home environment is pet-proofed and free from hazards. This includes securing gates, removing toxic plants or substances, and ensuring fences are intact for outdoor areas. 8. **Affection and Attention**: Provide plenty of love, attention, and affection to the pets to keep them feeling secure and happy while their owners are away. 9. **Communication with Owners**: Maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners, providing updates on their pets' well-being and any notable behaviors or events. 10. **Emergency Preparedness**: Be prepared to handle any emergencies or unexpected situations that may arise, including having access to emergency vet care if needed. Overall, the goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment where pets feel loved and cared for in the absence of their owners.
“Faith is amazing! She's very punctual, reliable, flexible, and a true professional. I'm so glad we have found a trusted sitter for our fur babies—they immediately fell in love with her at first sight! Thank you Faith!!!”

About: Fur babies have always been apart of my family since before I was born, I love them and love caring for them, especially my fur baby Mazi who lives with her grandmother. I work from home and am available as long as I receive a 48-hour notice before the proposed start date/time. I am also available on weekends and can be flexible if needed. I live in a gated apartment complex with a dog park and areas for walking dogs, taking them outside to play, and to get some air. There’s also plenty of space inside my home for your fur baby to roam around and play also. I don’t like putting dogs in cages or fencing them in while inside so that won’t be necessary unless requested.
About: I am fun and full of energy. We will make play time and take lot's of walks. When walking your babies, I will take them out @ 30 min intervals and keep them out of any harms way, as if they were my own. I will do any specific care when asked. If there is anything I can do to help you, I would be happy to help you out to make it easier on you and your furr babies. So please just ask I am easy going and here for you and your pets.

“Stefanie was great! The day I got Cadbury my friend who was excited to watch him got called into work and I needed someone immediately. Stefanie was able to come and walk him at the last minute. She is obviously a professional and handled everything very smoothly. She gave every detail on the report and sent plenty of pics of Caddy’s walk. I will definitely be asking her to walk him again.”

“AJ is just the best! Love how detailed the updates are. Love the pics that are sent. AJ is punctual and always plays with my doggo which I appreciate so much! So glad to have found AJ :)”

“If you’re searching for that personable, sweet, awesome dog walker, Najwa is the one! My dog has had a couple walks with her so far and by the second walk, he was waiting for her at the door. She’s very detail oriented and keeps you informed about how the walk went with your pup.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I love all animals both dogs and cats. I have experience dropping in and taking them out, going on walks, giving baths, or whatever they need. I also have experience with senior dogs. I am currently available most days during the week and weekend! I can come in multiple times a day if needed, just let me know what works best for you. I will pick up any messes the pet might have and safely put them in their crate or wherever they are staying in the house.
About: Hello! I moved back home from College Station 3 years ago to pursue a masters in mental health counseling. I picked up dog sitting to make some money while in school and love it! I have cared for sick animals (short-term and long-term sickness) having to administer shots and all kinds of other medicines. I am capable of administering medicine to your animal as long as they won't bite me! I have had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish of my own throughout the years, so it is safe to say I love animals. I also used to volunteer at the Living Materials Center while in middle school. I have even taken care of turtles! I work part-time while in school which allows me to be flexible with my pet sitting schedule! Since I work part-time, my schedule is a bit different every week. With that being said, I am very flexible and I encourage you to reach out to see if your dates of leave work with my availability! I do not have any animals of my own and I always check my backyard to make sure my fence is closed! I do have stairs in my house, so I keep a doggy gate around.
About: Hi! I’m currently a college student and I’ve had a huge soft spot for animals my whole life, I wanted to be a zoologist as a kid. When I was 8, my first pet was a black kitten named Midnight, and my love for animals grew even more. My extensive experience has equipped me with the skills to handle different personalities and specific needs of each pet. I’ve grown up around dogs, and caring for animals comes naturally to me. I’ve also fostered kittens, raised cats of my own, and even cared for fish and small exotics—so I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs. I’m very attentive to body language, changes in behavior, or anything that might feel “off,” and I always communicate with pet parents if something needs extra attention. Since my classes are mostly online, I’m home often—and that means your fur baby won’t be left alone or feeling bored. My daily and weekly routines are carefully structured to prioritize the well-being of the pets I care for. Each day involves dedicated time for feeding, exercise, play, and companionship. For in-home pet sitting services, I maintain a comfortable and inviting environment to minimize stress for your pets. This involves following their usual routines, feeding schedules, and incorporating activities they enjoy. I make sure to communicate closely with the pet owners to understand any specific requirements or dietary restrictions. Whether I’m studying, journaling, or relaxing with a cup of tea, I love having a pet companion nearby. Animals have always brought me comfort, and I genuinely enjoy offering that same comfort back to them.
About: Hi there! I’m Emma, and I’ve been pet sitting consistently for about 3 years, caring for everything from playful puppies to senior cats—and even reptiles! I specialize in in-home pet care, so your furry (or scaly!) friend can stay comfortable in their own space while you’re away. I’ve bottle-fed puppies and kittens, administered basic care routines, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and entertained. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, playtime in the yard, or a calm presence for shy animals, I tailor my care to your pet’s needs. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I’m committed to keeping you updated with messages, photos, and peace of mind while you’re gone! I work part-time with a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to step out during the day for drop-in visits and pet care. I’m available every evening after 5pm, and I can stay overnight any day of the week. Your pet’s routine is my priority, and I’ll make sure they get all the love and attention they need—day or night! When pet sitting at a client’s home, I always respect your space and follow your pet’s routine to help them feel safe and secure. I’m experienced with all kinds of animals—including dogs, cats, and reptiles—and I’m confident with feeding, cleaning, administering basic care, and offering lots of love and attention. I also keep pet parents updated regularly so you never have to worry!
About: I strive to be the best dog mom! Because I have dogs of my own, I know how it can feel to not have someone you can trust to care for your dogs. You can trust that you’re pup will be in good hands with me :) I work from home and am off on weekends, so I have a very flexible schedule for those wanting to drop their dogs off somewhere safe and reliable. They will have a fenced yard, plenty of room, and I am able to take multiple breaks throughout the day to play with your pup and take them for walks. My dogs are also extremely friendly and love playing with other dogs, so they’ll keep your fur baby busy. I live in a spacious house with a fenced yard, so your pet would have lots of room to roam around and play. My dogs will keep your fur baby socialized and having fun. On the weekends, I like to take my dogs out for long walks/hikes on nearby trails and parks. You can rest easy knowing your dog is part of my pack, and they’ll be treated as one of my own.
About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was 15. In my circle, I am the trusted pet caretaker! When caring for pets I have administered medication’s in all forms, i.e. a liquid via mouth, a tablet via mouth or in food. One of my favorite things when caring for animals is getting to watch them be unique and goofy in their own way! I am no stranger to taking them on walks, taking them to parks, picking up after in the yard, cleaning litter boxes, taking care of puppies/kittens or senior pets! I’ve done it all! My dad will tell you I should’ve been a veterinarian. *IMPORTANT NOTE* When I am housesitting, I never bring my own animals. I am currently in between careers and I am doing odd jobs in the meantime. I am able to self schedule everything I am doing as of late. However, your pet needs to be cared for I am more than willing to accommodate! I am a firm believer that the most comfortable place for an animal is a place. They already know. Taking care of an animal in its own home for an extended period of time reduces the stress for that pet. They get to keep up with their normal routine and don’t have to worry about fighting for attention from other pets. allowing them to stay in their own home means they have my full undivided attention!

Najwa, came in a time of need and at last minute to come take care of my border collie puppy, she was super respectful and made sure to give extra attention and care for my little doggo. Followed the instructions given and went beyond to make sure my lil pup was happy.
