“We recently had the pleasure of having Sam watch our two dogs for nearly an entire week, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention he provided. Sam went above and beyond, even rearranging his work schedule to make sure our dogs were well looked after. He maintained their regimented routine, preparing their unique meals twice a day and taking them out for potty breaks and exercise an additional 3-4 times per day. His conscientiousness really showed in everything he did. Sam stayed overnight in our home, ensuring our dogs felt safe, secure, and comfortable in our absence. His communication was excellent—he sent us multiple photo updates throughout each day, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear from the photos (and when we returned!) that our dogs were happy, calm, and well cared for. Honestly, I don’t think they even realized we were gone! Sam is incredible with animals, and it’s obvious he has a natural connection with dogs. He’s also friendly, respectful, and trustworthy. Knowing he was there allowed us to enjoy a much-needed vacation without any worry. We’re already planning to book Sam again for our next trip! If you’re looking for someone dependable, kind, and dedicated to caring for your pets as if they were his own, we can’t recommend Sam highly enough. Thank you again, Sam!”

“Brandon was a great choice to take care of our boys Del & Rio while we were away. He was very communicative, providing updates and photos each day. It's clear that he has a lot of love & compassion for animals and really makes a personal connection with them. It was nice to know he understood Del & Rio so well and they were in good hands. Thank you Brandon!”

“Samantha is amazing! So much so that we schedule her before we schedule our trips. We have dogs, cats, foster dogs and ball pythons and she is experienced with them all! She has no hesitation to contact us with questions, follows instructions to a T, and alerts us if anything is off. She is also an amazing house sitter and makes sure things are clean, orderly and that the pets didn’t make too much of a mess. If she can’t watch my pets, we simply don’t go. I would pay an arm and a leg for Samantha’s services just to feel comfortable while I’m away. I’ve had sitters in the past that have neglected my animals and ghosted my animals for 24+ hours. Never again! Samantha is our one and only!”

“Watched my baby for a few days and were extremely easy to deal with and took great care of my dog while I was out of town. Thank you both! 10/10 would book again.”

“Rachel was so great with Liam. She sent a lot of pictures and Liam had a great time. She went above and beyond what I expected and I would definitely have her keep Liam again. ”

“Adriana was amazing!! Our dogs immediately loved her and she did a great job caring for them while we were away. Our dog Obi hurt himself while playing and she sprung into action and took such good care of him. It’s a relief to have someone so dedicated. We’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Leah is an absolute gem! From start to finish, her communication was top-notch—we felt completely at ease the entire time we were away in Puerto Rico. We didn’t worry for a second, knowing our dogs were in such loving and capable hands. Whiskey and Rye adore her (which says everything), and to top it all off, we came home to a house that was somehow cleaner than we left it! Leah went above and beyond in every way, and we’ll 100% be booking her again. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Jeremiah was wonderful! He was prompt and dependable. He was patient, kind and so helpful with our pups who have separation anxiety issues. He was kept us updated on how our pups were doing and sent lots of great pictures to ease our minds. We will definitely be using him again in the future!”

“We are so glad to have found Gabby! We have 3 dogs, one of whom is extremely anxious, so we were worried about leaving her for the first time. Gabby clearly did a great job making her feel comfortable - I was surprised to see my scaredy dog doing things like curling up next to her on the bed. Two of our dogs are also on medication. Gabby did a great job ensuring everyone got everything they needed! We will definitely be using her services in the future.”

“Bella was very friendly, provided great care for the critters (while they provided her entertainment lol), and kept the house just as we left it. Would definitely use her again!”

“Brandy was an amazing house and pet sitter! She came to the rescue the night before we went out of town and our previous sitter cancelled. And during a holiday week too! She was very communicative and responded quickly and sent us updates of our boy and also spent so much time with him! Our house was just as we left it when we returned! We’re so thankful to have found Brandy and can’t wait for her to be our go to sitter in the future. Thanks for everything :)”

About: As a dedicated Texas A&M recent graduate with a passion for the well-being of our four-legged companions, I’ve balanced my academic life with volunteering to foster both puppies and kittens. I’ve cared for litters of up to four puppies and three kittens at a time, nurturing them from six weeks of age until they were ready for their forever homes. This experience has strengthened my skills in early training, socialization, and daily care—managing feeding schedules, potty training, and providing lots of love and attention. In addition, I’ve had the privilege of caring for my own senior dog, which has given me a deep understanding of the unique needs that come with every stage of a pet’s life. I truly believe pets are members of the family, and I will care for yours with the utmost respect, patience, and love—just as I would my own. Home in San Antonio for the remainder of summer, taking care of your pet is currently my full time job. Currently flexible to fit your schedule. I can crate, and offer basic training services. Currently not offering any boarding or day care services at this time. Thank you for your understanding.
About: Caring for pets has been a rewarding experience in my life. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs and livestock as well. Animals bring me a joy that people cannot. I’ve learned that a happy pet is a well cared for pet. I have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs. I love walks and playful interactions with dogs, and I make sure every dog feels comfortable around me. I am currently registered as a full time college student, but I do have about half the week available to care for your lovely animals. I do have two of my own furry dogs at home, which I take care of on the daily basis. I am able to provide proper care with exercise as well as handling excited dogs.
About: Animals have always played a meaningful role in my life. I grew up with five cats and a dog, and now I care for a cat of my own! I understand that every pet has unique personalities and needs, and I’m committed to providing them with the respect, attention, and care they deserve. I currently work part-time very close to home and live with multiple roommates. If I am not at the house, someone else is. I am very attentive with my own pet, so I know for a fact that I will be attentive and loving with yours! During house sitting or overnight stays, I prioritize keeping your pets comfortable and your home secure. I follow your pet’s regular routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I provide plenty of attention and affection to help them feel safe while you're away. I also keep your home tidy, bring in mail/packages, and water plants if requested.
“Kailin was fantastic! She was very easy to communicate with, sent lots of pictures, and really seemed to enjoy my animals! I definitely recommend her and will use her again!”
About: What sets me apart is my ability to quickly build trust with even the most timid or independent puppy, dog, or senior dog in your family. It will be my primary job outside of taking care of my elderly parents. I have the flexibility to be able to spend quality time. I will take care of your pet in your home, based of your specific instructions. Pets do better in their normal environment, it helps with trust.

Layla A.
“I highly recommend Layla for this pet caregiving job. I've known Layla for two years and during that time, I've seen her love for animals and her natural ability to care for them. Whether it’s taking the time to ensure pets are comfortable, feeding them on time, or providing the perfect balance of play and relaxation, Layla is incredibly responsible and attentive. She is trustworthy, reliable, and truly dedicated to making sure pets feel safe and happy. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to trust her with my own cat.”

Dora T.
“Dora was a wonderful fur-sitter for my cats. We have 4 cats and it takes a lot of work to care for them for a full week, but Dora was a amazing! She came twice a day to feed them, clean their litter boxes, and spend time playing with them. Even my shy cat Milo warmed up to her. Dora sent me regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. I came home to happy, healthy cats and a clean house. I highly recommend Dora for anyone needing pet services.”
