“Maria did a great job taking care of my babies, which was a huge relief. It’s really hard to find someone trustworthy and reliable but Maria is that person. I’ll definitely request her again!”
About: I have been a pet owner my entire life and the primary caregiver for all of my animals since childhood. I was raised in the country and have experience caring for animals of all sizes including fish, hamsters, gerbils, Guinea pigs, cats, dogs, sheep, pigs, cows and horses! I currently have 2 dogs, a lab mix named Wylie and a border collie mix named Buzz who are very well behaved and get along with other dogs. We live in Marfa and have a huge yard. I'm a documentary filmmaker who mostly works from home and when I'm not working I'm probably gardening or hiking with Wylie. In addition to caring for my own animals over the years, I have also been a trusted dogsitter for many friends. Wylie has been to a board and train program and I have learned a great deal from him since! I work for myself and mostly from home so my schedule is very flexible. I typically work from my home office or couch and walk my own dog a few times a day. We also have a completely fenced in yard that is safe and free of hazards. When it's hot, I limit time spent outside and make sure to provide lots of affection and enrichment. I live in a quiet neighborhood in east Marfa and have a completely fenced back yard free of hazards. I am happy to uphold any training or care habits or preferences you are using. If you do not have any, I'll simply care for your dog as my own! We are very go-with-the-flow and have nice chill days full of fun and enrichment.
“My two dogs love Rainey. She always goes above and beyond, making sure each dog gets specialized attention while I am away. I always feel confident leaving my much-loved pets in her care. Rainey is punctual, reluable, and trustworthy, and she does a great job keeping me updated.”
“I am so thankful to have found Beshka to take care of my fur babies while I am out of town. I highly recommend her, she is thoughtful, patient and very knowledgeable. I enjoyed speaking with her when she met my 2 dogs, and cat. I greatly appreciate Beshka taking the time to stop by my house to ensure the animals were comfortable with her, and going over questions and instructions , before I left them in her care. You will be very pleased, and have no worries while away leaving your fur babies in her care.”
About: I grew up with with the company of an awesome terrior mix as my best friend. Unfortunately, as an adult that lives for adventure, I find myself changing locations too often to be a full-time fur mom. So, I am here to love on your dog! I just love the companionship and quirky personalities of each individual pup. Depending on your dog's style, we can kick back and relax or we can go on a hike or a run. If they have any special needs I am prepared to attend to those as well. I am a super responsible person that is full of fun and love to share. I will treat your space with respect and care and your pup will be well loved.

Hilary I.
“Hilary took wonderful care of my two huskies! She walked them daily, and they are a serious handful- I don’t trust many people to walk them because they pull so hard. She gave them lots of love, sent me videos and pictures of their fun times, and I was confident in her ability to both follow their routine, and meet all their daily needs like feeding, letting out, making sure they didn’t run away, etc. My dogs are quite needy and I would entrust them to her care anytime. They love her a LOT!”
