“Carla watched our three dogs while we traveled for our wedding. She is truly the best! I felt completely comfortable the whole time and knew they were in good hands. She really knows dogs. Not to mention she is a lovely person to talk to. If you are looking for a sitter and have any hesitation definitely consider Carla you won’t be disappointed!!”
“Regina did an amazing job taking care of my babies while we where out the country. Her flexibility made it so easy for my babies to adjust to our absence. Will definitely use her again.”
“Kendra was amazing watching my boys Oliver and Sebastian. Oliver is special needs and has epilepsy so he needs meds 3x a day. Kendra had no issue administering his meds and making sure my baby was okay and taken care of. she even let me know each time she gave his meds so my mind was at ease. She made me very comfortable as I haven’t left my boys with anyone before. I am so glad I found her and will continue to use her services because I know Ollie and Bash will be well taken care of.”

About: I have cared for animals most of my life; from family pets, to cat/dog sitting for friends, to caring for any stray or lost animals I come across. I am an animal lover and pet owner so animal care is something I value deeply. I was 15 when I raised my dog Kiba with parental support. I have experience with puppy care including potty training, cleaning up after messes, aftercare for deworming and so on. I am experienced with walking dogs, big and small, and love to play. I have helped with post-surgery aftercare, with neuterings, heart worm treatment, and paw injuries. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and have cared for puppies as young as 8 weeks and kittens as young as 4 weeks. I even have experience with pet rats! No matter the shape or size, I would love to look after your pets. I am a college student at UT Austin and am currently on a break from classes and work for the summer, so my availability is very open. Outside of responsibilities I have to my own pets, I have a lot of freedom. I understand that for many animals, it can be confusing and even frightening for a stranger to enter their space. I am a very patient person, I am happy to give your pets the time and space they need to get familiar with my presence. I am familiar with the body language and temperament of dogs and cats, I know what I should look out for in the case they are feeling uncomfortable or anxious. I know to allow them to familiarize themselves with my scent, speak softly and calmly, and be aware of my own body language and movements. I have experience with stray and lost animals, as well as with house sitting so I know the best ways to introduce myself to a dog or cat. I will be respectful of you and your pets space, and make my presence feel as comfortable to them as possible.
“Omg… KELILA IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. So kind, so helpful and most importantly my baby loved her so mix. She was the best sitter I have ever had, and I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Kelila.”
“I have 2 geriatric blue heelers with cardiac disease who take cardiac medications. I was very anxious to leave them. Aleona was a blessing! She was fantastic with my dogs. She was attentive to all their needs and mine. I received pictures every day (several times throughout the day). She gave me awesome updates as well. I highly recommend this young lady, she will not disappoint!”
“NeTia was a fantastic pet/house sitter! She came to my home before her job began to allow the dogs to familiarize themselves with her. Both of my dogs, even my very scared/shy dog, immediately took to NeTia. I believe they noticed her calm presence and felt at ease. I got pictures and consistent feedback from NeTia! I never worried about how the animals were doing! She did a great job with the pets, communication, and keeping the house clean. She even washed, dried, and folded the towels she used! :)”
“Ava did an amazing job taking care of our new puppy. We were nervous at first but she helped a lot by sending pics and communicating with me throughout the day. I'm so happy we decided to book with Ava. We will definitely use her services again!”
About: I had two dogs growing up and now I have one 4 year old dog who I have been taken care of since 8th grade. I also occasionally take care of my neighbors dogs and cats. In August, I will be attending college on a track scholarship, and I will need to train a lot over the summer so this will allow me to fit in my training along with making some money before I go to college. My dog that I take care of now has tons of toys to play with, water bowl is constantly filled and is fed 2-3 times a day as required.

“Lacey could not have been a better match for our babies! We needed a last minute dog sitter for a change in holiday plans and Miss Lacey immediately responded with her availability. She went out of her way to care for our four fur babies - and they warmed right up to her! Even our most nervous boy took to her instantly. We loved how she kept us updated with photos the whole time! We will definitely be rebooking with Lacey every opportunity that we get!”
“Janette was flexible, responsive, and responsible. She managed to give our cat her steroid medication. She took good care of both my fur baby and the house, and we appreciate her very much. I would recommend her to anyone.”

Regina did a great job caring for Rosie and my home while I was away. She was communicative throughout the stay, sent regular updates and photos, and reached out with questions when needed. It was clear she wanted to make sure Rosie was comfortable and well cared for. When I returned, the house was clean and well maintained, and Rosie seemed happy and relaxed. I appreciate the care and attention Regina provided and would be happy to have her watch Rosie again in the future.
Carla was wonderful with my two pups. I have a high maintenance Golden Retriever that is on several meds. Carla did a meet and greet prior to the sit and went over all the instructions and spent some time with my pups so they wouldn’t be left with a complete stranger. I got a daily report and pics throughout the day. I’ve always fretted about leaving my pups, but I believe I have found a gem. We initially had booked for a 17 day overseas trip, but ended up having to cancel those plans. Carla was able to accommodate our change to a shorter stay. Would 100% recommend her for anyone who is a “worrier” about leaving their pups.
Ryder was so amazing with my baby boys! He was able to deal with my dogs hyperness and my other dogs excessive cuddle times lol which can be a lot at times but they overall they had a great time. I appreciate him being able to do a last minute booking as well! Will be booking again soon
This is our first time using a sitter that wasn't family and I was really nervous. Carly was amazing!! She sent multiple updates through the day (my dogs looked very happy) and kept me informed on all that was happening at the house. She went above and beyond in all aspects of her care of our home and our babies. When we returned from our week-long trip, the house was spotless. I appreciate her so much for everything and will be using her for all of our trips!
Brooke was absolutely fantastic with our older dog, Maya, while we were out of the country. She really put our minds at ease with her care and attention! Maya can be a little stubborn about going outside since her eyesight isn’t what it used to be, but Brooke was so patient and gentle with her. It didn’t take long before Maya had made a new best friend! We loved receiving Brooke’s detailed updates and photos. It was so comforting to see how well Maya was doing. On top of that, she left the house spotless, even vacuuming and washing the sheets! Maya truly enjoyed her company, and we will definitely be booking with Brooke again. We couldn’t have asked for better care!
Aisja did a great job taking care of our big puppies and senior special needs dog. We had an emergency need for same day care and Aisja responded promptly and was able to fit us in. Her love of animals was obvious as soon as she met our dogs. I’d highly recommend her for taking care of anyone’s pets.
