“I used Ben’s services for the first time recently to watch both my cat and my house. He did a fantastic job and went well above expectations. As I believe others have said, in addition to taking care of my cat, which was the top priority, he left the house super clean and tidy, washed the sheets, cleaned up the dishes. I highly recommend him.”


“Ashley was amazing, she watched my cat Phoebe at home for me and kept her happy and active. She also left a postcard and new toy before leaving which was super sweet. Would definitely book again.”


“Kathie was excellent with my dog Macy! She took her on multiple walks each day and was very attentive. Kathie provided detailed updates whenever she went to walk Macy, feed her, and spend time with her. Highly recommend Kathie as a pet sitter!”


“Brittany took great care of my kitties and sent lots of pics to update me! Appreciated the timely feedings and super cute photos! The kitties obviously enjoyed her company.”


“We had a great experience hiring Lexi! She was flexible with the days/times we needed to book. She followed instructions for taking care of our dogs, and she communicated often. We would love to hire her again in the future.”


“Linda was so great with our dog, Tex. She stayed overnight with him while we were on vacation and took him on walks. She sent us several photos of their time together. I will hire her again!”


“Madison was fantastic! Our Max has separation issues and a sensitive personality. No, he really really does. Ok, he may be a little spoiled too. Madison kept him entertained with his ball and outside time and lots of snuggles. Max instantly fell in love with her. House was just like it was when she left. Will definitely use her for any future trips.”


“Jessica was so amazing! sent both photos and videos of Milo and made sure he had a great time when we were away! highly recommend Jessica if you are looking for some one to watch over your pet!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was about 7 years old. My family owns a ranch with all sorts of animals and I have always had a passion for caregiving. I’ve worked with daycare facilities, home boarding and even fostered dogs. I feel as though my experience has helped equipped me for any dog’s needs. I am full time dog mom. Here to assist with daycare, boarding, and drop-ins. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and running with the pups. Please schedule a meet and greet to best associate our pet and address your needs. I have a 3 year old male Wheaten Terrier who is head of the welcome committee. We love to play and run and share our toys with all friends. There’s a dog park that we attend daily and would love to have some friends join us. Our complex is dog friendly and in a gated community. Your dog is in the best hands with us!


“Steven was awesome! I have an older Yorkie and a small terrier mix that can be a handful. I felt totally comfortable leaving them and my home in his hands. My Yorkie's birthday was while I was gone and Steven celebrated it! My pups love him and he will get repeat business from me. 5 star all the way!”


About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up with just about every pet you could think of. I have several years of experience walking dogs, pet sitting, and caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable giving medication, handling basic training, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m reliable, patient, and always keep owners updated while their pets are in my care! I am currently living at home for the summer before I go back to my job in France caring for children!! So I am available pretty much everyday! Whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and keep the space clean. I also share updates and photos so owners feel at ease. My goal is to make every pet feel like family.

“Katalina was absolutely amazing with our two chihuahuas, Maci and Moose. She stayed in our home for six days and followed every part of our (very detailed) care plan exactly as we asked. Maci is our older dog with some allergy needs and Moose is a 4-month-old puppy who needs close supervision and structure, and Katalina handled both of them with patience, care, and attention. She kept us in the loop with regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a clean house, a happy puppy, and a very content Maci. It was clear both dogs were well cared for and loved throughout the entire stay. We would absolutely invite Katalina back in the future. She is responsible, trustworthy, and truly cared for our dogs as if they were her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable pet sitter.”


About: I’ve taken care of my own personal pets, neighborhood pets, family pets, and when I moved back to Texas four years ago I started working in veterinary clinics as I found my passion as a veterinary technician. I am in school for it as well as it being my job Monday-Friday, so your furbabies will be in safe and loving hands! I am also fear free and cat friendly professional certified. I work 7:30a-5:30p M-Th, so I’m unavailable during those times but am available in the afternoons and weekends to do any basic care you may need, feedings, walking, administering prescriptions or medications. In my own home if your pet is kennel trained, for their own safety at night or while I am gone at work or to the store, they would be safely placed in their kennel to avoid any issues. If they are not kennel trained they will be placed in a separate room without any other animals to avoid any issues. I will be with them as much as possible aside from my work schedule to ensure they are safe and happy, they’ll get their regular walks, feeding schedule and treats with plenty of play time and toys. At your home I will try my best with my work schedule to adhere to the schedule you leave me for your pets walks, feeding routine, etc. to ensure no additional stress is placed on them with you being gone.
