“Perfect fit. Our Sadi loved Emily. Personable and professional. Emily came to our campsite. Great communication: prompt and courteous. Flexible and gracious with our pre-meet up as I forgot to confirm our campsite number. Thank you Emily.”


“Denise did a good job looking after both Lacy and Charlie. She followed all instructions just as we asked, even with having some difficult instructions due to our high-need dog. Denise was great at communicating with us via texts and sent several pictures throughout the day. We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs with Denise. Would recommend her for anyone needing a knowledgeable pet sitter. Thanks, Denise!”


“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!”


“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!!”


“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.”


“Kristi was the perfect house and pet sitter! She kept in constant contact with us, and we felt very confident about how happy our pets were. We returned to find our pets healthy and calm and our house very well taken care of. I highly recommend Kristi to anyone!”


About: I grew up in a household that always had a dog (or 3) and I got my own when I was in 7th grade! Plus I have pet and house sat for several friends and families over the years! Anything your pet needs (baths, medications, special care, etc.) I can take care of as I have experience caring for puppies all the way to senior dogs! I have always loved dogs and can’t wait to meet yours! I currently work from home full-time so I can accommodate most any schedule for drop-offs, pick-ups and anything your pet may need! Your schedule is my command! I have a fenced yard and pet friendly home! My place is always tidy and clean so your dogs can’t get into anything by accident! And I am happy to give a tour before hand to ease any worries and make accommodations for anything you see fit!

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.

“Alissa did a great job with our animals. We had a pet on medication, she handled it perfectly. Great communication. I highly recommend her services!”


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!

“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: Loving, Full-Time Care for Your Fur Baby 🐾 Hi! I’m Sabrina, a stay-at-home Army wife with a completely open schedule and a passion for animals. I offer dedicated, full-time dog boarding in a safe and loving home. I've cared for animals of all kinds since I was a child—dogs, cats, birds, even the occasional fish! Your pup will be treated like family here, with plenty of attention, belly rubs, and playtime. Whether your dog loves long walks, cuddles on the couch, or just a calm, relaxed environment, I tailor my care to meet their needs. I’d love to meet your furry friend and become their second home! 💛 Because I’m home all day, your pet will never be left alone for long—and you’ll receive regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. (Unless quiet time is requested specifically) I have a friendly resident dog who gets along well with most dogs, but I understand that every pup has their own personality and comfort level. If needed, I can safely crate my dog or rotate time using our spare bedroom to ensure all dogs have space to relax, free roam, or enjoy one-on-one time in our dedicated doggy playroom. My goal is always to provide a calm, safe, and personalized experience for every dog in my care.


“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’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!

“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 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: 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.

“Took great care of our pack for the day and sent us some awesome pictures. Also was available at last minute and very flexible. We would highly recommend! Very compassionate and affectionate to our babies. Thank you!!!”


About: I have experience as a kennel technician and administering pet prescribed medications. I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, reptiles and birds of different breeds and ages. Family and friends have relied on me to babysit and feed their pets well as cleaning litter boxes or any pet in house potty accidents. I am a student at Schreiner University for pre-med but I am available Mondays and Thursdays from 3-8pm for drop in visits and or walks. I am very patient with all breed personality types and give plenty of attention and comfort to active and shy pets. I make sure fresh food and water is replenished with cleaned pet bowls to prevent traces of pet drool and germ build up. For drop in visits or walks, I value potty time and play time to ensure pets get their full amount of exercise and fresh air. For walks I take notice of different pet behaviors and will be cautious of other dogs walking by. I am extra patient with pets who are fearful of weather storms or loud noises such as fireworks.
