About: I just really love all types of animals. You can’t go wrong with choosing me to take care of your pet. I’ve fostered, I’ve worked as a dog washer, I’ve brought home more strays than I could ever count. I work a job in which I mostly make my own schedule, so fitting in time for extra pets is never hard. Most dogs transition into my dog’s and my routine fairly quick, but I can adjust to their needs, too. If they need midnight pee breaks for instance. Pick up and drop offs hours are between 7a-7p and are scheduled as a 20 min window of time so no pups over lap their time for arrival or departure. Please arrive at your scheduled time because my day is micro planned between job and dog schedule of play, feedings, other pups arriving or leaving, meet and greets, and also fitting in a life. If you are late or going to be late, please notify me as soon as you realize and we can rebook another opening for your pup. Thank you for understanding and helping to see my time as valuable. No pick up or drop offs on holidays (Easter Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, etc), Please arrange for the day before or after the holiday. Thank you Your pet will be indoors, with supervised time in the fenced in yard with pool multiple times a day. I crate pups when necessary, especially if I am going to leave the house (this is a safety precaution), during feedings, and at night. You must be okay with your pup being crated. I can teach your pup if they are not accustom to crate time. You can bring your own crate or I have a few here, definitely bring something that smells like home to add to their crate. Dog area is anywhere in the downstairs area, with the exception of my bed. I have a strict no dogs on bed policy, but cuddles on the couch is fine. I accept a few families of pets at a time so that all pets get enough attention.

“This is my second time booking Xandra and I couldn’t be happier. She is extremely attentive and communicates well. I really appreciate how quickly she responded and kept me updated throughout the trip. I def recommend her ! Book with her if you don’t want to worry about your fur babies while you’re away.”

“Alina was truly amazing with our cats. She spent time with them and they warmed up to her really quickly! Alina treated them like her own pets and took great care of them and there needs. I will definitely be using her again and again!”

“Thank you again for your help and flexibility!”

About: About me: I have time & quality care to give to the pet(s) you love while walking or pet/house sitting because I'm an online college student. I have 22 years of dog, cat and other pet care experience to include pet walking, training, transporting, vet visits & pet/house sitting listed in detail below. I'm starting in the job field of Animal Behavior on completion of my college degree. My previous career of 21 years was in oceanography, & I look forward to giving your pet the love and attention they deserve. Experience in DOG CARE: In the last 22 years, on the side of my regular job, I have been trusted by family, friends and new clients via word of mouth to pet sit for canines of all sorts to include senior dogs, dogs with cancer, high energy dogs, shy and nervous dogs, a Great Dane, puppies and multi-pet households. Experience in CAT CARE: I've been cat sitting for 21 years for senior cats, cats with diabetes, cats with swimmer’s syndrome, one cat in a wheelchair, shy cats, active cats, multi-pet households, hairless cats, indoor/outdoor cats, indoor only cats, outdoor only cats & kittens. ADDITIONAL PET CARE: I also have 22 years' pet sitting experience with other pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, fresh water fish, turtles, geese and pigs. In my free time, I've rescued, rehabilitated, trained, fostered and been a pet owner to both dogs and cats in Texas, Virginia, California, Hawaii, Spain and the Kingdom of Bahrain. I have also volunteered at animal rescue and no-kill shelters in all of those places as follows: Humane Society, PAWS of Texas, Hawai'i Bird Rescue, Hawai'i Marine Animal Response, Rota Animal Welfare League Spain, and Bahrain SPCA. I am available for walking, pet/house sitting, pet care, vet visits, pet transportation and moving because I'm a full-time online university student. I have my own reliable transportation to come to you, but I do not have the availability to board animals in my residence at this time. My goal is to keep your pet(s) in their routine with the same worry-free, stress-free care as you have set up for them for walking, pet/house sitting, pet care, vet visits, pet transportation or moving. I have my own reliable transportation to come to you. I offer pet transportation in my own vehicle as well, but I do not have boarding facilities available at this time.

“Chelsea is just the kindest and so patient! My pups love her and they didn’t scare her off! Will for sure be booking with her again!”

“Anran was great for my two kitties. Very reliable, punctual, and responsible. Went out of her way to clean things in my apartment and go get supplies from the store without me asking. Would 100% hire her again and would recommend her to friends. Thanks, Anran!”

About: I have a deep love for animals and will ensure that your pets enjoy their stay!! 😁 It is an honor to serve you and to look after your pets. I am at home full time during the week so I am flexible to give the quality care and devotion that pets deserve. Feel free to ask about my schedule I have a nice fenced backyard and plenty of room indoors. I live in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walking dogs. There are parks close by as well.

About: I treat every pet like family—reliable, patient, and experienced with all breeds. I prioritize safety, comfort, and genuine love in every visit. You can count on me! Pet care is a natural part of my routine—I plan my days around walks, feedings, and playtime to ensure pets feel cared for and comfortable. Currently trying to move to full time pet care! I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding on schedule, giving plenty of playtime, walks, and affection. I keep their space clean, safe, and stress-free, just like home.

About: I’m a great individual that has a lot of experience taking care of fur babies. ranging from big doggy’s to little dogs and puppies. Cats as well, many different breeds. Not only I care for these fur babies I make sure they’re SAFE & Happy! (: Pet care currently fits in my life 7 days a weeks as I’m a stay at home mom and I don’t go back to Uni until the fall. I offer great care and updates on any fur baby. My home is a pretty spacious 2 story home and a fenced back yard. I have an animal door leading right to the back yard as well. The neighborhood I live in also offers a park and sidewalk in the whole neighborhood making it safe for daily and nightly walks. (:

About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have raised my two pups from the puppy stage all the way into their senior years, so I’m very used to all the different stages and personalities that come with dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, brushing, basic routines, and of course lots of love and attention. I’ve also dog sat for friends and family plenty of times, so I know how important it is to keep your pup on their normal routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog is super energetic, shy, cuddly, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll treat them like one of my own and send you plenty of cute updates along the way! I work a full-time office job Monday through Friday from 8 AM–5 PM. I work from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, which gives me more flexibility for daytime drop-ins, potty breaks, walks, and check-ins on those days. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I’m generally available for visits before 7 AM and after 5 PM. On Tuesdays and Fridays, I can usually accommodate morning, lunchtime, afternoon, or evening visits depending on the timing and location. My weekends are very flexible, and I’m typically available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, longer visits, and pet sitting. I know pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I always try my best to work around their usual feeding, potty, walk, and medication schedule. Feel free to message me with the times your pet normally needs care, and we can see what works best for both of us and your pup! I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I’ll always treat your furry baby like I would my own. I’m happy to follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, medications, routines, or anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’ll also keep a close eye on their behavior and surroundings, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m more than happy to send pictures and little updates during each visit so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well taken care of!

“Heather was so great!”

About: I have worked at Petsmart before. At Petsmart we are required to know what makes a dog comfortable while at a public place or somewhere other than home. I have watched over puppies 2 and 3 months old for my in laws a couple times now. My parents got a kitten that I helped take care of till I moved out about 10 months later. I own a chinchilla which is an exotic small animal. I’ve had her for a year. I’ve been fascinated by pets since I was a child and always do my research before taking care of an animal. I look forward to being of assistance. I fluctuate between part time and full time. I’m usually free tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursdays. I can schedule the time off if it’s 3 or 4 weeks in advance. I usually work mornings except for mondays, when I work evenings. I can always visit the pup or kitty during break and then spend the rest of the day with them after work. This will most likely be temporary until I can get a solid schedule here or at Home Depot. My apartment complex is very pet friendly. My building is only a few steps away from a dog park inside of the complex. The clubhouse has dog treats and I can provide as well based on age and diet. I will always ask any questions about what you would prefer for your fur baby. I have a chinchilla that stays in a cage as long as your pet is around. She is curious and will not hurt your pet even if they stick a paw in between the bars, which is hard to do anyways. My living room is a large space for any pet. I’m currently working part time, but I’m willing to do weekly stays with 2-3 weeks in advance notice. I also will require meet ups before every service in a public place. This is not going to be required for existing clients. I live in an apartment so I don’t currently own any pets, but everyone in my direct and extended family either has, or has had one that I’ve grown up with. I’m very familiar with animal routines and attributes. If something is bothering your pet, I will notice. I always keep in constant contact with whoever I petsit or help take care of for anything I may notice. Most of the time it’s things owners are already aware of, but I’ve always found it never hurts to ask and inform.

“Michele is awesome-she cares and takes great interest in our cat - we can really tell the difference when we return that our sweet cat is doing great! We are already a repeat customer?”

About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by fur babies! I have always taken great pride in my ability to sense my pets needs and accommodate them. I have a variety of experiences with different animal types. I am very good with accommodating senior animals. I also have the energy and drive to keep up with younger animals! I am available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I have a very flexible work schedule and can accommodate almost any request! No job is too big or small! I have my 2 cats and 2 dogs in my home, both younger and older in age. They all have great personalities to ensure your fur babies have a buddy to make them feel welcomed and comfortable. In any drop in/ overnight visit, I will strive to make your fur babies comfortable with me as a guest in their home.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, family friends and family have relied on me to take care of their furry family members. As someone who has dogs of their own, I know how much your animals mean to you. I have had experience with puppies, all the way to older dogs. Although I work full-time, I still have plenty of time to care for your furry family members! I’m available for weekend drop-in visits and can stay in your home any day of the week to keep your pets comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I strive to make pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and ensure they always have a safe environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and keep owners updated throughout my visits or stays.

About: Hi, I'm Leslie! This is my alternative option since my husband refused to allow me and adopt another fur baby 😅. I've had dogs my entire life. From the time I was a toddler, dogs have been a constant and beloved presence in my world. Growing up, my family always had at least one furry friend, and caring for them became second nature to me. I’ve owned dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and responsibility. My daily routine includes long, enjoyable walks, playful training sessions, and careful grooming to keep my dogs healthy and happy. I understand the importance of personalized care and make sure to tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs and personality. My home is filled with love and laughter, with plenty of toys, cozy spots for naps, and, of course, lots of belly rubs. My lifelong experience with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their behavior and needs, ensuring they always feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I genuinely love dogs and find immense joy in their companionship. If you’re looking for a reliable, passionate, and experienced dog sitter, I’d be thrilled to take care of your furry friend as if they were my own. MEET AND GREET REQUIRED Dogs MUST be vaccinated. I’m an elementary teacher who is off in the summer and looking to keep myself occupied during this long break at home. I’m home all day basically unless I run to the store. I live in a house with a big back yard where your fur babies can run around and enjoy nature! We will always have someone out there as well to make sure everything is okay.

About: Great with cats (and dogs too)! Real life experience with gentle senior cat care and cat’s with health issues needing medication (I had a cat with diabetes for several years). I understand how hard it is to leave your pet even for a short trip. I will take care of your pet the way I would want someone to take care of mine! I work from home and I would be able to take care of one or two pets at a time. My schedule is open for daily drop ins with a limit of 1-2 pets. I have cared for my daughter’s dog in our home on occasion. We have a large fenced yard that is perfect for dogs with supervision. We also have a cat room in our home that has appropriate furnishings to keep cats comfortable and occupied.
