About: Hi! My name is Madi, and I’m a 29‑year‑old pet lover with years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. I truly enjoy loving on pets, taking them on fun adventures, and giving them all the pampering they deserve. I’m very flexible with my schedule, and I’m comfortable with any breed or size — every dog and pet is welcome in my home. I’m from the East Texas area, and I would love the opportunity to take care of your pet whenever you need an extra hand. I came across this app and thought it was such an awesome way to help people while doing something I love. Getting to make a little extra money while spending time with sweet animals sounded perfect! Thank you so much for considering me — I hope I get the chance to take care of your pet soon! 🐾💛 I’m a full‑time teacher Monday through Friday, which means I’m responsible, reliable, and great at managing routines. I’m able to come home during my lunch break and conference period to let dogs out, check in, or give them some love. I’m mostly available on weekends, and I’m very flexible — whatever your schedule looks like, I’ll do my best to make it work for you and your pet! I also have a fully fenced backyard, giving your dog plenty of safe space to play and explore. Pets are welcome on my furniture anytime — I want them to feel completely comfortable and at home while they’re with me. I also have a sweet golden retriever who loves making new friends and can keep your pup company during their stay! 😊
“We will definitely be re booking when we need to. She did wonderful with my two girls. Sent pictures, videos and updates. They had a blast and I could tell they loved every minute of it!💗🐾”

About: I’m a single mother working as a home health nurse. Who could use the extra income. I’m very reliable and very loving to animals. I know how to care for a furry friend, because they are like family and they mean so much to me. I feel like this is perfect for me because I’ll be able to spend more time with my daughter and be a better mother and to give her everything she ever needs and wants. I’m going to love your furry friend just as much as you do and more. I won’t hurt or disrespect you animal and I’ll be very interject with them. I hope I get to spend time with you babies and give them all the love. P
“Gabrielle was amazing with our two doggies! She provided frequent updates and videos. She played fetch with them and made sure they were happy and cared for. Will definitely be contacting her again! :)”

“Jamiahya took good care of my elderly dog while I was away for a week. She provided daily updates and photos that really put me at ease. I highly recommend her to care for your dog or cat.”

“I wish I could give twenty stars! Callum and his girlfriend are incredible, they went above and beyond to care for my cat. Some unforseen setbacks came up with scheduling on my end, but they took everything in stride and were able to adapt at a moment's notice. So easy to work with and fantastic communication. Can't recommend them enough, they really came through when I needed someone responsible and dependable.”

“Amazing experience with Anna! It was my first time leaving my dog with someone else, so I was a little nervous but Anna was awesome. Gave me lot of photos and updates. Great pricing and very responsive. Definitely will book again!! Thank you Anna!”

“Dolce is truly a blessing in every way. She always showed so much care and love for our cat. She returned messages promptly and was always so kind in every interaction. I would highly recommend her to everyone.”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm where we had horses, cows, goats, dogs, cats, chicken, peacocks, and emus. My family has one dog right now, Oreo. I work a full time job Mon-Fri but I’m off on the weekends. My girls and I would enjoy loving on your fur babies while your away. I have a good sized fenced in back yard and a puppy for your pet/s to play with. I will follow any directions you may have for your fur baby.
“We were so lucky to find Barbara to take care of our princess! Being rural, it can be hard to find a nice place where your fur baby can stay in a safe environment while also feeling "at home" and not in a kennel all day. Barbara fit the bill! She was so sweet to send pictures every day while we were gone and even trimmed her nails! Thanks Barbara!”

About: Im responsable in my care and love for both animals and people. I have 4 years of experience with helping family and friends I can do puppy training but I will need a list of what commands are already being taught. I will give senior dogs lots of care and love. Really the only downside is that I live in Etoile 30minutes out from lufkin I can do pick up and drop off for additional fees. I can also groom a dog for an additional fee. I have college Monday through Thursday but from Friday to Sunday i am available. I won’t be able to work holidays such as Christmas,Valentine's day, July fourth ect… I live on lake SamRayburn with a very big unfenced yard. whether or not a leash is needed can be discussed I just feel as though it would be safer. My house environment is docile and friendly. We have hard wood flooring along with plenty of space to runaround for a small dog. There are two pets in the house an orange tabby male cat named tyson (he is mainly outside) and a seiner Maltopoo female dog named coconut both are good with other dogs. I will take into account safety for your dog by having them on a leash when out if it is preferred (but i will probably still use the leash just for safety) if walking near water the dog will be watched with a close eye. And bathing will be available as well for additional fees.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10. I am the remember of my family that they first go to when they need a reliable person to watch/ take care of their animals. I have a dog of my own and take great care of her! I’m a student-athlete at SFA, but my schedule is very flexible. I have a dog of my own, so I know and am available to care for pets! My backyard is fenced in to ensure safety of pets. I also have a dog to keep your pets company, but can crate the pets if needed!
