“Raenell did 2 drop ins with our dog & cat today. Raenell followed all instructions & did everything as it was asked. Our dog was definitely tired after Raenell left! I would highly recommend & plan to continue using services in the future.”


“Cristina was great and worked every time she dropped in to make my shy boy more comfortable! I definitely recommend Cristina and have already booked her for my next trip!”


“Felt very comfortable leaving my two cats with Mystery, even my shy cat was coming out for pets by the end of the visits. Lots of pictures at each visit which definitely helps with the being away from your loved ones! I'll be booking with Mystery again.”


“Mrs. Victoria was very great with my animals. She communicated everything that happened and she took a lot of pictures. She also followed all instructions therefore I recommend anyone to her. She was a 10/10 if I could give 10 stars I would.”


About: I have many years of experience in pet care, especially senior care! I’ve worked with both blind and deaf cats and dogs in my past and I love to assist them the best I can. I am also experienced with handling medication and immobile pets that need attention when walking! Although I am a student athlete at the University of Texas at El Paso, I am always ecstatic to branch out and assist others the best I can! I have a pet of my own that I take care of alone, I very much understand the feeling of having a pet at home who hasn’t been out for hours on end while you’re are work, school, etc. I hope to help relieve that stress from pet owners and the pets themselves! Attention and affection are key to a healthy environment. I also believe that a safe and clean environment is necessary for pet owners. In my experience I have had to clean dog bowls that have obviously been neglected when it comes to a good clean!

“Omer was absolutely perfect for watching my two mini goldendoodles! From the moment he met them, he quickly built a genuine connection and earned their trust—no small feat with my two sassy pups. He went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, well cared for, and had everything they needed while I was away. I really appreciated the attention he gave to their routine, from walks to treat time, and it was clear they felt safe and happy with him. He also was excellent at sending pictures and keeping me updated. Omer is truly a natural with animals—patient, kind, and clearly an animal lover at heart. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I’ll absolutely be booking him again!”


“Vanessa was a dream sitter! She responded quickly to my initial inquiry and communicated consistently with me. I especially appreciated that she was available during thanksgiving weekend! I truly enjoyed seeing the pictures and videos she sent of our pups during her daily drop-ins. Vanessa was kind, considerate, and compassionate, and that shined through in how our pups were so delighted to see her every day. We will be rebooking Vanessa for our future pet sitting needs. Thank you Vanessa!”


“Michelle was amazing with my dogs! She sent me so many pictures each day and I know they were happy. She was very communicative and easy to work with. I know my dogs were in good hands while I was gone. I will definitely use her services again!”


About: As an awarded 2025 Unsung Hero on behalf of the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), I am recognized for embodying excellence, compassion, and quiet leadership in the veterinary and pet care industry. I am a certified veterinary technician with diverse skills and experience in emergency centers, orthopedic surgery, regular veterinary clinics, and shelters, showcasing a strong understanding of animal health and well-being. To prioritize your pet's safety and welfare, I implement a policy of exclusive care by refraining from accepting multiple concurrent bookings. This strategy enables me to devote my complete attention and oversight to each individual pet, facilitating a high-quality experience tailored to the unique needs of both the pet and the owner. Prioritizing your pet's health involves comprehensive monitoring of activities, meticulous tracking of fluid and food intake, management of fluid losses, and oversight of prescription regimens. Additionally, incorporating mental enrichment activities is essential for overall well-being. My goal is to ensure your pet thrives in a safe and balanced environment throughout their care.🩺


About: I love dogs. I have two dogs of my own which are absolutely spoiled. I will take your dog(s) for walks. I will play with your dogs. I will treat your dog as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs for the passed 4 years. I have open availability and I am very flexible. If it is okay with the owner I will provide treats for your dog. The dogs will be part of my family if they stay. They have the same freedom as my own dog. I will take all dogs for a walk. All dogs will have the same amount of love and attention in my home. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I have lots of time to spend with your pups! I will keep you informed if I need to leave the house I have a fenced in yard giving the pups lots of room to play. I have plenty of dog toys and love to have them play fetch I’m a stay at home mom. I am home all day if I leave it’s only for a couple of hours. The dogs can go outside multiple times throughout the day I care for your pets as if they were my own. I put safety as a #1 priority my home and yard are clean to be sure the pups can not get into anything.


“Cessili did a great job. She checked in on Shiloh 2x per day while I was away. She set a meet up to interact with Shiloh, which was good. She was consistent with her visits to make sure he was fed on schedule and took tons of pictures. She even rearranged her schedule for when I was arriving back just to make sure the pup was all taken care of. I would definitely recommend Cessili!”


About: Hi, I’m Jennifer — a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, small mammals, birds, and even large reptiles like desert tortoises. I’ve worked with pets of all breeds, ages, and behaviors, including those with medical needs, quirks, and special routines. Whether it’s a zoomy puppy, a wise senior cat, or a unique reptilian friend, I treat every animal like my own. I offer daily walks, feeding, medication administration, playtime, light grooming, and enriching companionship tailored to each pet’s personality. I’ve also volunteered with rescues, fostered animals, and supported pets through both recovery and aging — so you can trust me with even the most tender care. What I love most? The quiet moments when a pet finally melts into comfort and trust — it’s pure joy. I offer senior pet care and overnight stays, too. If you’re looking for thoughtful, reliable, and personalized attention, I’m your sitter. My husband and I are lifelong animal lovers who work from home full-time, which means we're always nearby to give pets the attention and companionship they deserve. Because we live in a peaceful, walkable neighborhood, we’re able to take dogs on regular, relaxing strolls and offer a calm environment that’s especially comforting for shy or senior animals. Our flexible schedule allows us to adapt to each pet’s needs—whether that’s midday potty breaks, slow meanders, medication reminders, or playful breaks in the yard. Pet care isn’t just something we do... it’s built into the heart of how we live. Pet care in our home is rooted in attentiveness, routine, and a quiet, walkable neighborhood that’s ideal for relaxed outings and sensory-friendly breaks. Because my husband and I work from home full-time, we’re always close by for companionship, supervision, and flexibility in each pet’s schedule. We create a calm, tidy environment with designated rest spaces, secure access points, and plenty of enrichment throughout the day. In a client’s home, I adapt respectfully to your routines and preferences — prioritizing familiarity, consistency, and gentle transitions. Whether administering medication, sticking to a special feeding routine, or giving a nervous pet extra time to warm up, I take pride in being both dependable and sensitive to individual needs. Safety and trust are never afterthoughts — they’re central to everything I do, ensuring every pet feels secure, loved, and truly at ease.

About: I grew up around dogs (of all sizes) all of my life. I have always had a great connection to animals and can provide a safe and trusted companion to your dog. I work a part-time remotely from my house where I am able to set my own schedule around other responsibilities. I will always prioritize the care of the animals I am entrusted with and have a flexible work schedule to complement that assurance. I am very close to three beautiful parks where your doggies will get plenty of activity and I have one tiny dog that is very friendly and sweet to keep yours company.

“Ailyn was so wonderful at watching my cat. Both times were last minute so I was grateful she was flexible. I loved the updates and felt better knowing that my cat was in good, caring hands.”
