Kristina was awesome and went above and beyond! She cared for each of my dogs individually, one is very elderly and the other very energetic. She provided thoughtful updates and cute pics. Will definitely be calling her again!

Denise was able to accommodate a last minute holiday drop-ins for our cats. She showed up on time, was communicative, and our kitties enjoyed spending time with her.

Sydney was great to work with! I needed a last-minute sitter with very little notice, and she went out of her way to make it happen. Even though we only scheduled a quick drop-in, she still sent several pictures of the pups and let us know when one of them refused to eat their dinner. It was so reassuring to know they were getting care and detailed attention. Sydney will definitely be my first call next time I need a sitter.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, and will naturally have a soft spot for your family friend. I have a little over 10 years experience. I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and happy while their parents are away! I am always happy to send photo updates so you know how your doggo is doing each visit. I am currently a stay at home wife, meaning I have a very flexible schedule right now! I am available most week days and weekends, and I enjoy building pet care into my daily routine. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding or check ins, I make sure that each pet gets the time and care they need. I have a fenced yard and a safe, pet friendly home where dogs can play and relax comfortably. I prioritize safety and will follow your dog's routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks and any special care they may need. If you prefer your dog is crated for them to feel safe and secure, you will have to provide a crate but I can absolutely accommodate to that.

About: Hello! Welcome to my profile! :) My name is Yari, me and my husband are both Army veterans who just moved to Lockhart in 2024. We are so happy to be here. I’ve taken care of puppies to elderly dogs like (Nacho the pug) for all of his life (all of 16 years) and my Luna for 13 years. I have over 15 years of dog sit/ in-home check-in experience for multiple families. I am kind, gentle and patient with every animal I care for. I work from home, so I will definitely have a lot of time for your furbabies! I am available for house sitting/ doggy day care/walks mostly anytime of any day. I am mostly free to do check ins for your pups in-home depending on what and when you’d prefer. I have a BIG fenced yard with 2 friendly furbabies (Luna the yorkie and Fang the Bluey) to keep your pups company. I can crate your pup or they can stretch their legs throughout the house and yard.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs for most of my life and caring for animals is something I truly love. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including administering medications, supporting mobility challenges, and providing a calm, patient environment. I know how important consistency and gentle care are, especially for pets who need a little extra attention. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved every step of the way. I currently have cats of my own but they are used to other pets in the home, including dogs. Additionally, I offer complimentary meet and greets prior to petting your pet, to see if it’s a good fit. I work from home and my schedule is flexible, so I’m able to interact with and love on your fur baby all day. I can also pick up and drop off your little one if need be. I do have a few cats of my own, so if you have a kitty needing care, it may be best for me to care for them in their own environment. My cats are used to other pets though, including dogs, so they are more than welcome in my home. I also have a fenced-in yard with a lot of room for your dog to run around and live in a neighborhood conducive to walks.

Stacey was excellent in every aspect during her drop in visits with our three dogs and cats. She kept a very close eye on a skin irritation that had developed on one our dogs and she updated us with pics daily. She was truly concerned with the health of our pets. We could not recommend her more. She is fantastic.

My very shy German Shepherd loves Tiffany. She is calm, gentle, and really knows how to approach dogs, even shy ones like Ernie. He always gives her kisses. She's also quite knowledgeable about training and gave me some great tips. She has visited multiple times and I will keep calling on her!

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced pet care provider with over 9 years of hands-on experience in the veterinary field, along with many additional years of trusted pet sitting. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. My background in veterinary medicine means I’m comfortable recognizing signs of illness, administering medications (if needed), and providing attentive, knowledgeable care for pets of all ages and health needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or needs a little extra patience and support, I tailor my care to fit their unique personality. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals, and I understand how important it is to maintain their routine and make them feel safe while you’re away. You can count on me for reliable communication, plenty of updates, and lots of love and attention for your pet. I treat every pet as if they were my own and aim to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away! I’m available for boarding on weekends at your home and during the week for evening walks and early mornings and evenings for stop ins for play time and potty breaks. I am available to go to your home to make sure your pet is kept comfortably in their own environment and provide care and ease that your pet is still able to have play time and excellent care while you are away short term or long periods of time.

About: I have had a few dogs from friends and families that I have taken care of over the years for free. I have my own dog that I have had since he was a puppy that is very well trained would love to meet other dogs and experience new fur friends. I work at home and I take breaks very very often. I go to my backyard and even parks just to walk. I would love to take them for walks as well. I have a fenced in backyard and my dogs go out often. Morning, Afternoon, and 2 times in the evening. Just to make sure dogs use the bathroom and get that energy out before they fall asleep.

About: Hi! I’m Becca ☺️ I am a lifelong animal lover and have been pet sitting for family, friends, and clients for years. My husband and I have an 11 year old Bichon Frise named Sophie who is truly part of our family and honestly one of the most spoiled little dogs on earth 😂 We have loved and cared for her since college and she is thriving, happy, and so very loved. I also grew up around animals my entire life including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, and more, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me and is something I genuinely enjoy with my whole heart. We also now have a sweet one year old son who absolutely adores animals and has learned how to be very gentle with Sophie. Motherhood has been such a beautiful season of life for me, and now that things are getting a little easier and more settled, I’m excited to begin pet sitting again because taking care of others, both people and animals, truly fills my cup. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works from home, so someone is almost always home to love on your pet, let them out for potty breaks, cuddle them, keep them company, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I keep a very clean, peaceful, smoke free home and we live in a quiet safe neighborhood with sidewalks perfect for walks. I am also comfortable administering medication if needed, as Sophie takes allergy medication herself. Because we do have a small child, I am very intentional and selective about the dogs we accept into our home, and temperament and behavior are extremely important to us so that everyone stays safe, happy, and comfortable. I truly see animals as precious gifts from God with their own little personalities, emotions, and needs, and I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your baby. I will treat your pet with so much love, care, gentleness, and attention while they are with us, and I also love sending lots of updates and pictures so you can feel at ease and know exactly how they’re doing. I would be honored to care for your sweet furbaby like one of our own.💕 Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I am a stay-at-home mom, and already caring for my son and our sweet 11 year old Bichon Frise throughout the day. My husband also works from home with a flexible schedule, so between the two of us, someone is almost always home for potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and making sure your pup feels comfortable and cared for. We love evening walks around our quiet neighborhood, and since our days are already centered around being home and caring for both of our babies, adding another furry friend into the mix feels easy and natural for our family. Your dog will be treated with lots of love, attention, and care while they’re with us. 🩷 Safety is my absolute top priority while caring for pets in our home. We live in a very quiet, safe neighborhood, and dogs are always kept leashed on walks and closely supervised outside. My husband keeps our yard freshly mowed and well-maintained, and I keep a very clean, calm environment indoors as well. We have an 11 year old Bichon Frise named Sophie who is truly the sweetest dog ever and incredibly gentle with other animals. Because we also have a one year old son in the home, I’m extremely intentional about supervision and boundaries at all times. My son is very gentle and loves animals, but he is never around dogs without very close supervision. I have playpens, baby gates, and separate spaces throughout the home so I can safely attend to both children and pets without distractions, and I also have a kennel for Sophie if separation is ever needed. I only accept one client dog at a time and am very mindful about temperament so everyone stays safe, comfortable, and cared for.

About: With a B.A. in Psychology, I use my skills for patience and understanding with all types of pets. I grew up with small puppies and have two large dogs of my own that I have raised. Additionally, I have extensive experience in pet health and in caring for senior pets as well. Needs help with basic training skills? I got you! I’m happy to accommodate to your pet parenting style and your pet’s needs. I currently have free availability, and I love going for walks and spending time outdoors. I take into account the Texas heat when planning walks, but have found many other creative ways to enrich the minds of dogs indoors. I have two dogs of my own and although they have varying needs, we have found routines to help them thrive. I have experience caring for senior pets and young pets who are crated, but I am happy to accommodate to any requests made by the pet parents. I tend to avoid making corrections unless instructed to do so, and as a pet owner of a dog with severe allergies, I will only provide treats that are pre-approved or provided by the pet parents. Additionally, I am happy to offer basic cleaning such as wiping paws after being outside and cleaning and refilling water bowls and food bowls.

About: I love dogs. My past pet experience are amazing dogs are the most pure-hearted animals I know. One comment I get a lot of that I attracted a lot of animals, cats too. I love cats as much as dogs, one think that will set me apart from other sitters is that I want the dog to trust me. I want the dogs I take care of to see me as someone that they are ok with and not someone that is just there to watch them. I want them to enjoy the time with me as much as I will enjoy my time with them. Cats as well I want your animals to trust me as much as you will trust me to take care of them. i’m currently in school with no job but i will work after and on weekends, i love animals and don’t mind spending most my time with them. i live with my mom and we have a big yard(1.8 acres) so they live running out side and i have a big room with lots of space and a big bed so animals can lay on it.

Kristina was able to drop in very last minute for our two pups when I got called out for a work trip. We have a crazy puppy and an anxious senior dog who both warmed up to her so quickly, you can tell she truly cares about animals. We are really grateful to have such a great sitter nearby!

I cannot recommend Katy enough! She went above and beyond while caring for my cat, Frida, who is still adjusting after our recent move. Contractors showed up unexpectedly during the week, and she thoughtfully asked if they’d be back so she could plan her visits around them; just to help minimize stress for Frida. That level of care and consideration meant so much. Her visit reports were incredibly thorough. She detailed every litter box scoop (including type), and when Frida got into human food in the pantry, she not only took photos but also made sure the food was secured so it wouldn’t happen again. At one point we thought our auto feeder had failed, and she troubleshot it until she confirmed it was working properly. Frida, who is usually shy, warmed up to her instantly and showered her with affection at every visit. It was clear she has a natural gift with cats; she truly is the cat lady of Lockhart. I’d be thrilled to book her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone. If you want someone who treats your pet like their own and gives you total peace of mind, she’s the one!
