About: Hi there, I'm Caden. I am a mental health therapist in the area and I am passionate about helping both humans and animals. As a child I grew up on a ranch in the hill country and took care of dogs, cats, hedgehogs, and horses since I could walk. In 2021 my parents tragically lost their 2 dogs in the Ponderosa pet resort fire that claimed 75 animals. We were devastated and struggled to trust anyone but family to watch our pets. I know just how important a responsible and principled pet sitter is, and I am honored by those who allow me to watch their animal. As a therapist, I work a very odd schedule, but I can make it to your home atleast twice a day if needed, as well as spend the night. I can be flexible to accommodate your pets needs Unfortunately, I can not have your pets in my home because I wouldn't want to stress out my own animal. I am young and have lots of energy to play with your animals. I am responsible, a good communicator, and I keep my word. I am willing to adapt my care to your animals needs.

“Kyra took good care of my pups and cat while I was away one weekend. I was super nervous, it was my first time having someone dog sit. She let me know when she got there, how the dogs were, and gave me continuous updates. We will definitely use her again. Thank you for everything Kyra 🖤”


“Sarah was very accommodating and took great care of the dogs while we were away. She communicated throughout her visit and sent us some pics! Very grateful for a good experience with Sarah!”


“Nova is consistent, tidy, and most importantly, a responsible and caring sitter for our very social cat. We received regular updates and photos and felt so relieved she was taking care of him during our trip.”


“Angie was great! Great with the pups and very tentative, sending pictures and updates. Both of my babies really liked her.”


About: I have taken care of a variety of pets for as long as I can remember, but mostly dogs. I've handled rescues, high energy high drive dogs, low drive dogs, disabled dogs, and dogs somewhere in between it all. I've helped train dogs and I foster for k-9 angels when need be. I do not have a job other than pet sitting and running deliveries, so I can give my undivided attention to your pet! I am very flexible, but I have frequent doctor's appointments which means I may have to leave for up to two hours occaisionally. I can take your pet out as far as you need and I can hang at home with them as much as they need. When it comes to staying over I will leave the house exactly as clean as I arrived.

“Camryn is a wonderful sitter and super sweet. I know I don’t have to worry about my dogs or my home when they are in her care, which means the world to me! I feel very blessed to have found a sitter I can trust with my fur children. Thank you, Camryn, for being amazing!”


“Russell was the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. He took great care of our dogs and even stayed with them during a hurricane while we were away. I cannot recommend Russell enough. He truly is one of a kind!!”


“Abbey did an excellent job. She was very patient with Atlas. He was very anxious around a new person and Abbey was great with him. I would definitely recommend Abbey and will ask for her the next time i have to go out of time”


“Cassandra stepped into caring for our two dogs seamlessly with lots of TLC:) She handled changing a bandage and administering daily medication in addition to posting photos and updates. Her professionalism and caring attitude toward our pets helped us enjoy our time away with family even more:)”


“Deanna was very kind to our little kitties while we were out of the state. Before we left, Juniper showed signs of an upper respiratory illness which required medication. Deanna was willing to learn how to administer the medicine at the proper time and dosage which eased our worries while we were gone. Being that it was our first trip away from our new cat, Silvan, we were happy to see lots of pictures of the cats getting along with each other. She was a considerate guest, cleaned up after herself before departing, and took the time to take our bins to the curb for the weekly trash pick-up. Overall we would recommend her to anyone in need of cat care in the area. Thanks, Deanna!”


“Alexis is already becoming part of the family, she has a relaxing nature that we can see reflected onto our pretty anxious dog. Wonderful sitter ❤️”


“Wonderful! Very confident in leaving my babies in her hands💕”


“Sydney was awesome! It was last minute and she came through! Stayed overnight with my 2 dogs and fed them. She was very accommodating of my busy schedule and stayed through late morning until I got back. Would highly recommend and would use her again!”


About: I’ve always loved dogs and have been trusted when watching and caring for them since for the past three years. I’ve watched family, friends, and even neighbors dogs and houses, and have always been invited back! I am currently still in school but am free every weekend as well as afternoons. I have a part-time job with the La Porte baseball fields but I choose my own schedule and work around once to twice a week. I am also an avid runner, considering I participated in high school track for the past four years, but my season is sadly over, meaning I have more time for your dogs and also have the ability to run with them if needed! I love playing with dogs and will always make sure they get the correct exercise, water, and food that they need! I don’t have any trouble with cleaning up messes and am very capable of crating your dog if needed!

About: Hello, my name is Susie. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I’ve cared for our pet and family/friends pets while they are away on quick trips or vacation. They rely on me for feeding, waking and keeping their pets busy while they are away. my days are very open while my kids are in school. I have plenty of time in my days to care for your pet and keep them busy thought out the day. Feeding, walking, baths if needed, play time, taking them out to potty as often as they need. Most importantly, keeping them safe and stress free while their family is away.
