House Sitting in Gay Hill

“Tamara was very communicative and took great care of our house and 2 dogs while we were gone for 5 days. We had busy schedules right before the trip, and so we weren't able to meet and greet ahead of time, but it was no issue at all and Tamara called me as soon as she got to the house and met the pups on day 1. She also sent lots of pictures and videos. I have one extremely energetic puppy, and a senior, lazier, alpha dog with separation anxiety. I can really tell the dogs were very happy and received lots of qualify attention and exercise while I was away. I will definitely be a repeat customer for as long as I'm living in the area. Thank you so much, Tamara!”

“Victoria is terrific! We have a zoo of dogs and cats and all of the fur babies seemed happy and content when we arrived home. She sent videos during the visit which I appreciated so much. Very responsive and very responsible. We will use Victoria again!”

About: I’ve always had animals from a young age from small bunnies to big horses. We have an excellent relationship with Welch Veterinary Clinic and Hartland Grooming if you want us to take your dog for a doggy spa day. My 16 year old daughter, Brittan and I spend time to take care of our pets and we love your pets like our very own! We live on a farm, we have four friendly dogs for playmates. We take the dogs on walks on the back roads, lots of playtime, and snuggles at night. We have a small crate for small dogs, and a small room area for big dogs and also a fenced in yard and outdoor kennel.

About: My house sits on 36 acres. There is plenty of room for your animal to roam around. I also have a fenced in backyard. I have taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats and dogs and now we have cows too. I am about to start working part time which will allow for more time to hang out with your fur baby. I am available to board fur babies most weekends and during the week. I have a fenced in back yard. The backyard is huge as well. I have one dog, she is super friendly and energetic. Right now I work full time but am soon changing to part time which will allow me to have more free time to hang out with the fur babies!

“Adela did an amazing job with house sitting Duke. He was well cared for and had a great time. She fed him, played with him, and took him on walks.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a small child. I currently have 2 Great Danes so I am not nervous around big dogs. I have inside and outside cats as well as a dozen chickens! I recently retired from full time teaching and would love to help families leave their pets with a trusted person to take of them like their family would. I will only do drop-in and houses sitting jobs because I do have 2 very large dogs and I don't to stress any pets who might be intimidated by their size.

About: I grew up with dogs in the family, and I absolutely loved caring for them. I've also committed to many dog-watching/house-sitting jobs! Having that previous responsibility, not only can I care well for your dogs, but I can assure they will be well loved and happily played with! I'm currently working full time, but am so open to flexibility. My schedule changes weekly, which can be hard to create a routine, but any time not spent working, I would love to hang out with your dogs! My top priority in care is going to be safety, meaning I will keep close watch on them in whatever setting your home offers, whether that be outside on a leash, in a backyard, or in the house. There will also be enjoyment of time, making sure your dog is being played with/companioned (I believe if my presence in necessary, we should be having a grand time together!) Along with these things, I will guarantee normal rituals as you wish, such as feeding instructions or bathroom breaks!

About: As someone deeply passionate about mental wellness and intentional living, I bring a calming, grounded energy to every pet I care for. Animals are incredibly intuitive, and I always meet them with patience, love, and respect for their unique personalities and needs. Whether it's peaceful walks, cozy companionship, or extra attention for anxious pets, I create a soothing environment that helps them feel safe and cared for while you're away. Your pets are family—and I treat them with the same heart-centered care I give in every part of my life. Pet care naturally fits into my daily life because it aligns with how I already move through the world—with intention, compassion, and calm. I prioritize routines that support emotional well-being, and spending time with animals brings a grounding, joyful rhythm to my day. Whether I’m working on my candle and apothecary projects or out for a walk, I find caring for pets adds purpose and peace to my routine. It’s not just a side job—it’s something I truly value and make space for with presence and heart. When caring for pets in a client’s home, safety and respect are always my top priorities. I follow any routines or instructions closely, making sure pets feel secure and supported in their familiar space. I take time to get to know each animal’s personality and boundaries, and I always double-check doors, gates, and food instructions to prevent accidents. I treat every home with care—tidying up after myself, respecting privacy, and creating a calm, consistent environment that helps pets feel at ease while their humans are away.

About: I have had dogs and other small animals since childhood. I also have a background in emergency medicine that can come in handy. I’m also currently working from home and have an extremely flexible schedule I work part time from home or can take my work with me. Making it easy to walk dogs and spend time with them throughout the day. I usually get in 3-5 miles daily. Making it easy to get dogs exercised. I have a fenced yard with one dog who is an incredible “host”. Not minding company. I also have the ability to rotate animals safely inside and out of the home if they are not happy together.

About: As a kid, I’d do research for my dogs to train them on my own. I’m now in a training dogs for the blind organization at A&M. I’m currently enrolled at Texas A&M majoring in animal science. I’m in a training group for dogs for the blind that meets every week and I get the opportunity to sit dogs and eventually will train one on my own. I also volunteer each week with Courtney Cares at A&M which is working around horses. I do as much volunteer opportunities for exotic animals aswell. My dogs are all crate trained and have a safe environment. If left out of the crate, I make sure anything that can harm them is put away. If the dog is kinda crazy then I make sure to not let them out of sight especially around other dogs. My dogs get fed twice a day with many treats for skills in the middle.

“We could not love Norman and Stoney more! We used them for 4 separate stays over the last few months and each time they went above and beyond for our babies. The house was always well taken care of, even when one pup decided to have a stomach bug mid-visit. Norman handled it all with love and care. Between he and Stoney the pups were never alone for very long, and they got lots of love and snuggles. Norman even handled accepting and hiding deliveries from Santa for us so our son wouldn't find them when we got home. Above and beyond!!! We will definitely be using them for every time we need a sitter. They're like family now!”

About: I have a yorkie named Leroy. I adopted him when he was about 1 year old. I love animals and have always loved them growing up. For most of the time growing up I had pets. Specifically, dogs. In regards to training experience, I have experience training puppies with potty training and commands such as sitting. Right now I am working part time on the weekends. So, I have time during the week for dog walking, and house sitting. I am currently looking for full time jobs so my availability Monday - Friday will probably change later. There is a yard with room for taking out and walking pets where I’m staying also I have some transportation depending on the area for home sitting.
