“Courtney did an amazing job taking care of our dog, Smores, while we were away in Austin. She was incredibly accommodating and took the appointment on short notice, which we truly appreciated. Courtney even came over the night before to meet Smores, which gave us peace of mind. Her communication throughout was excellent, and she came over twice to let Smores out as planned. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely call on her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: Hey there! Growing up I always had pets like dogs, guinea pigs, turtles, and birds. I have always had lots of love for all animals, I am patient, understanding, and caring I am dedicated to provide the best care for a fur-baby! I was a volunteer at my local shelter Animal Defense League (ADL) here in SATX, I did it all last summer and I worked in the kitten area cleaning them and giving them lots of love! I don’t mind what any pets background is I want to make them feel comfortable and loved age or condition is never an issue I currently own one senior dog and I love all age of pets! Thank you for being interested and clicking on my profile I can’t wait to provide your pets with lots of love! :) I am currently unemployed and on summer break my schedule isn’t too busy so i’m available half the time just reach out to be a day in advance:) I’ll be here all summer! I currently live in an apartment, we have a fenced balcony and my neighborhood is pet friendly with a doggie park and not too far from me is a park where i always like to go for runs/walks! I like to focus on keeping my home and my clients tidy and organized I’ll be sure to keep everything in order.
“Betsy was great with my pups and meeting all their needs. She took great care of them during her visits and sent me tons of photos and videos. Would absolutely recommend her!”
About: I started dog sitting at 13 as a job throughout high school! Well known pet sitter for the local area. I am passionate about animals, so I went on to have my own pets who get the world. I have also rescued and fostered, so I think I’m well equipped! I’m currently a disabled veteran with a lot of free time on my hands. I’m looking to fill some of it by looking after your pets as well! The care for my clients pets will be based on what they tell me they need. Just a drop in to feed and take potty? I’m here. Need a little play time on top of that? I’m also your girl.
“Cleo was very diligent, we received cosistent communication. Cleo took great care of Bella and was attentive to details. I would recommend Cleo for their services to others looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
About: My little girl, Elliot, and I have so much love to give that we thought "why be selfish when we can share with all creatures"! Elliot and I wanted to start this business together to learn responsibility, money management, mental health benefits of walking, and of course getting to play with and care with as many pets as possible : ) We have our own doggy, Lily, and she is just as much a member of our family as we are. Elliot is such a caring helper that we think this will be such a great learning experience to help better develop her into adulthood. I cannot guarantee that she will be be present on ALL walks, cus she does still need school and soccer training, but we are splitting all earnings 50/50. Thanks for reading and giving us a chance to spread some love <3 I used to work 60+ hours a week and was financially compensated very well, but once we had Elliot I knew quality of life was far more important than dollar signs. I decided to start a business and have worked hard to be able to drop off and pick up Elliot from school, and also take her to soccer and gymnastics every week. Short story long... I have plenty of free time and love outside walks. I have had pet dogs and cats (and rabbits, and gerbils, and hamsters, and birds, and chickens) as long as I have been alive. My Dad grew up on a farm and taught us how to care for animals at a young age. We treat every single animal as if it were a member of our family. We honor our client's wishes and make sure to keep you pet's best interests in mind.
About: I worked at Dogtopia for 1 year. I would watch big and little dogs as young as 5 months. I would watch 15+ dogs in each room. I also have a dog at home who is 9 years old and I just got a cat who is 5 months I work Friday thru Monday from home (remote)! I’m typically going to be done with work Friday and Monday at 2 pm and sat and sun by 5! The rest of the week and the time I don’t work I am free to give y’all’s babies walks and love! I will play with and treat fur baby like my own. I will feed them, potty as many times as they need and run around with them and give them all the love and treats!
