“Tisha arrives before the appointed time to help make the transition easier for pets and owners. The pets are so excited to see her they forget you are leaving! She keeps you updated as requested, entertains the dogs by playing with them, takes them on field trips to the dog park, makes sure they are fed on time, medicine is given at appropriate times and they are settled in comfortably at night. The experience with Tisha is wonderful. I have sung her praises to everyone! We would recommend her to anyone who has pets they treasure. She is the next best thing to us for our babies! Thank you Rover for making it possible to find Tisha! Keep up the good work.”


“Stefani was a great help ! We were in town and totally forgot the Texas State Aquarium didn’t allow pets. She took Lola into her home while we were at the aquarium. Kept me updated. When back in town and needing a sitter will definitely book again! Thank you once again!”


“Nicole is always a great sitter! She does a great job keeping me up to date with pictures and videos. Nicole has kept my dog on numerous occasions and each time has been a great experience!”


“Donna went above and beyond in her care of our little shih tzu. We received photos and cute updates everyday while Zoey was with her. We have no doubt our little girl was loved and well taken care of. Donna will be our absolute go to from now on. She is amazing!”


“I left my chocolate lab with Molli as we were passing through her town on our way to our vacation. She had availability just 2 days in advance which was super convenient for us! I received lots of pictures and updates of my dog doing fun things and looking super happy, comfortable, and relaxed. Very happy with the entire experience!”


“Maria was great when taking care of our dog while we were away. The daily pictures/updates put me at ease knowing our little guy was doing great and being well taken care of. You could tell he had made himself at home at Maria’s. We will definitely use Maria again!”


“Samantha was the best. I had to change drop off and pick up dates and she was really cool about it. She treated my dogs like her own, I didn’t worry about their well being while they were with her. I knew they were having a blast and being well taken care of. My new go-to sitter.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for years including my own, fosters, and family and friends’ pets. I have experience with all ages and sizes of both cats and dogs. I do have a 7 year old lab in my home who is very friendly and loves overnight doggie guests. I would love to learn more about how I can help you care for your pet! Note: I only book one client at a time for in-my-home services (day car/boarding). I accept multiple dogs from the same family, but will not book another client while I have your dog(s). I currently work full time with a flexible schedule during the week and am very available on weekends! I’d be happy to see how I can fit your loved ones care into my schedule! I have a fully fenced (6ft wood privacy) large yard. We also allow our dog and your on all furniture and beds if they’d like; they’re a member of the family. We do have a crate for security if that makes your pup feel more safe and sound when they’re away from their humans. Please let me know if there are any other accommodations or notes I’d need to know to best care for your pet!

“Alissa was very sweet and welcoming right off the bat. She took good care of my dog and constantly sent me pictures and updates on how he was doing. She even made a name sticker in my dogs name which I thought was very cool.”


About: Welcome! My name is Kirsten and I am a new resident of Gregory Tx! I’m originally from Austin where I began my animal care journey. I owned my own animal care service business in Austin for about 4 years taking care of dogs and cats from north all the way down to south Austin. I’ve loved every minute of meeting all kinds of personalities from all pets and giving them the love and attention they need. I’m happy to do a meet and greet with your fur baby. Look forward to meeting you! Currently transitioning to part time work for Hygiene school so I will have lots of time on my hands to watch over your fur baby :) I love to take pups on walks In the neighborhood, play with their favorite toys and give them lots of rubs! If there are activities you prefer I would more than happy to add them to our daily activities. :)

About: I owned dogs for 40 years so I know how our pets are family. I said goodbye to my little furbaby 4 years ago and while I’m not ready to have my own again, I’m happy to love on yours. I’m single, no kids, so if you have a puppy that requires extra attention, a senior dog who prefers a low key environment, or just a dog that appreciates being spoiled, I’m your gal. I love the energy a dog brings to a home. I live in a quiet low traffic neighborhood so we’ll start and end the day with a walk to get us both some exercise. I live next to the state park and across from the loop, if you prefer your pup to have more exercise. I’ve had three puppies of my own, watched my mother’s brand new puppy during COVID, so I’m comfortable with adhering to your potty training schedule so your training doesn’t miss a beat. If there’s other training you want me to keep up with, I’m happy to do that too! I also have had two senior dogs that passed from cancer so I’m comfortable with providing a relaxing environment for them, as well as medication administration. I work from home and will be taking time off for the holidays so your pet will have my full attention. I’m accustomed to taking care of my family and friends pets, so know how important it is to stick to the dog’s routine. I will take them on AM/PM walks with potty breaks in between but happy to do more extensive exercising on the loop or hiking trails at my house. You know what your dog needs, so I’ll gladly accommodate. I have a fenced in back yard but your dog will only be outside supervised. I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for morning and evening walks. I also live across from the loop trail and next to the state park in case you’d like your dog to get more exercise in. I’m happy to crate your dog too if that’s your preference. I’m also a snuggler so happy to have your dog join me on the couch or sleep in the bed. It’s just me, so your dog doesn’t have to contend with other pets or kids. They can get 1:1 attention. I only take one family at a time.

About: I have grown up around all kinds if animals and helped with their care since I could remember. I have been pet sitting since I was in high school a d have cared for mostly dogs and cats, but have experience with reptiles and birds as well.

I have a large fenced yard and a fur baby who loves everyone, cats included. There is room in my hometown crate your pet if they are used to, or they are welcome to free roam. I work from home so the pets are rarely if ever left alone while in my care. I strive to keep a routine as close to what your pet is used to in terms of feeding and walking schedules. And of course your fur babies are allowed on all my furniture.

About: I’ve volunteered at pet shelters since I was 16, and i dog-sat my neighbors pets all throughout middle school & high school. I’m pretty much available whenever.

Angela P.
“I’ve always been hesitant to leave my dog with just anyone because she has separation anxiety but leaving her with Angela was a completely different experience! From the moment I dropped her off, I felt confident she was in the best hands. Angela treated my dog like her own—taking her on fun walks and hikes, playing toys with her, cuddling with her on the couch and even in bed (just like at home!). She kept me updated with tons of pictures which helped me relax and enjoy my trip, knowing my dog was having an amazing time. I can’t recommend Angela enough—she’s not just a dog sitter, she’s someone who truly loves dogs. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet as much as you do, she’s the one!”
