“The experience using this app is so convenient and professional. Natalie was our pet sitter and did a great job with our three doggies. She stopped by two days before the scheduled dates to meet us and the doggies and get instructions on the care and was so sweet and professional. She was punctual with all of the scheduled visits and sent us pictures each visit, which really put as at ease. I highly recommend her and this app.”

About: Hello, I'm Jill, your go-to pet sitter in El Paso, Texas. I offer personalized and loving care for all kinds of pets, including birds, cats, dogs, fish, livestock, show animals, and even lizards or other reptiles. Whether you need reliable pet sitting or dog walking services, I'm here to help. For 20 years I have raised and loved goats. chickens, cattle, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and even a deer. I completely understand that your pets are like family, which is why I provide attentive overnight care to give you peace of mind while you're away. With a daily rate of $25, you can trust that your furry, feathered, or scaly friends are in safe hands. I also do house sitting with cleaning for additional fees. If you're looking for a caring and dedicated pet sitter who prioritizes the well-being of your pets, I would love to chat with you. Feel free to message me if you're interested in my services or have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved pets soon! I have owned a farm for the last 7 years, and have been raising chickens, goats, and cattle, along with my 3 dogs and 5 cats. Since moving up here I am missing my animal therapy and daily routine of raising and loving on my babies. I’m used to daily schedule feeding, clean up, and more importantly spending as much time as possible loving on them all. I make sure there is plenty of cool water for them to drink, especially in this summer heat, and change it out several times a day to make sure it stays cool. Or, I add ice to it, especially after going out to potty or play. I brush them daily (because I have two major shedders). I sit in the floor and love on them and make sure to keep a strict potty schedule. With the cats,I make sure to clean the litter box multiple times a day hoping I will catch it immediately.


“Josue was great with my little Panda. He came in and checked on him every day and Panda loved him! I will definitely be rebooking him whenever we need someone to check on Panda when we’re not here.”


About: I’ve cared for various animals over the years, from energetic dogs to independent cats and even my mom’s aquatic turtles. These experiences taught me the importance of routine and gentle attention. Feeding, cleaning, brushing, and observing their habits helped me develop patience and a strong sense of responsibility. I currently care for my own kitten, Stitch, and I’ve become especially attuned to the small cues animals give us when they’re content, stressed, or need space. I’m reliable, calm, and committed to providing safe, respectful care that adapts to each pet’s unique needs and personality. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a quiet companion, I’ll treat them like part of my home. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly rhythm. I’m used to building routines around animals’ needs—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, litter maintenance, or giving medication. I find that caring for pets brings a sense of calm and structure to my day, and I prioritize being consistent and observant, whether I’m caring for my own pet or someone else’s. Balancing pet care with my work schedule is something I do regularly, and I always make sure animals in my care feel safe, respected, and looked after. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe and welcomed in a calm, clean environment. I maintain regular routines for feeding, play, and rest, and I’m always attentive to how they adjust to a new space. I give them space to explore at their own pace and provide comfort through consistent care and quiet attention. My kitten Stitch has helped me become especially mindful of keeping a peaceful, pet-friendly home where animals can settle in comfortably.

“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!”


“Lauryn was awesome! She is super sweet and caring of your pets. She let my dogs out over Christmas break and they loved her. I appreciate her doing that over the holiday, as those times can be hectic. I will definitely use her again!”


“Yvette took such great care of Mia. I could tell when I came home that my pup was so happy and had a great time. I usually ask that my pup plays in the yard, but with the rain she made adjustments to ensure Mia didn’t get muddy. So happy with the care she gave Mia and will book again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15. I have two recurring clients whose dogs I look after everytime they go out of town along with other clients who I have helped and will continue to do so on the off chance they need a sitter. I adore animals probably more than humans so rest assured, your pup will be in safe hands. Dogs whether it’s mine or my clients will always be important to me and I will give the best care a dog deserves. I’m a teacher by day and a visual marching technician by night. I go home after the gym and look after my animals. I will make sure to make the time for your pups no matter what I’m doing. Just give me that chance! I give my pups and my clients pups nothing but patience, love and more patience! I make sure they’re fed once a day (my dogs come and go as they please when they’re hungry to eat) but I also know some dogs have routines like eating once in the morning and once at night. My dogs have a doggy door so they can go in and out as they please but I also know some dogs need to be let out. I’ve done this before as well. I play with my dogs and I give them love. Anything and everything.

“Super great sitter! Our cats loved them so much, they came over daily to check up on them, feed them, clean the litter boxes and top up their water! Didn’t miss a day and kept us feeling relaxed with daily updates ? defo recommend ?”

“This is my second time requesting Salma and once again, I am not disappointed! She is so attentive and treats my cats as if they are her own. During one of the days, she called because she was worried when one of my cats didn’t come out to greet since he is always at the door and asked permission to search in one of the rooms for him! That to me just showed how much she cared and respected not only our pets but our space! The cats really take well to her and I know that if I ever need someone to watch the cats, I can always count on Salma.”



“Amazing with our pups,( 3 labs and a chihuahua) constant updates with pictures and just overall a great job. Definitely recommend for pet sitting needs. Our chihuahua can be “difficult” and he ended up loving her :) all around great puppy sitter. Will be using again if available :)”


About: Since I was 11, I have taken care of dogs. From my own dog, families dog, and friends dog. I have cared and love all these dogs as they were my own. By giving them the proper attention and love. I grew up with a beagle when I was younger. She was calm and quiet. She was my world. Few years later, I got a husky and definitely had to adjust and adapt to the high energy. As you can see, I'm very caring, friendly, attention to detail, adaptable and well care for your fur babies as if they were my own. I'm currently working from home M-F! So I can stop by and check up on them during my breaks and stay with them if needed just by taking my work laptop with me. Also, I'm free on the weekends! As for having two dogs who love getting into things they shouldn't be. I'm always on alert and observing they aren't eating things they should be. Making sure I fully understand the pets habits.

Josue G.Star Sitter

“Josue was great with my little Panda. He came in and checked on him every day and Panda loved him! I will definitely be rebooking him whenever we need someone to check on Panda when we’re not here.”


Vicente D.
“I’ve seen firsthand how much care Vicente puts into raising his cat, Stitch. He goes beyond the basics to make sure Stitch feels safe, engaged, and healthy every day. He’s been intentional about teaching him essential behaviors—helping him understand when it’s time to play, when it’s time to rest, and when it’s time to eat. Vicente has created a living space where Stitch knows he belongs. He’s added interactive elements throughout the home so the cat has places to climb, explore, and relax. It’s clear he wants Stitch to feel like an active part of the household. Cleanliness is also a major priority. Vicente scoops the litter box more than twice a day without fail and thoroughly washes food and water bowls to keep things sanitary. He checks the water bowl often to make sure Stitch has a fresh supply at all times. These daily routines reflect genuine commitment—not out of obligation, but because he deeply cares.”
