About: I had dogs since my teens years - since I was 14 years old. I currently have a yorkie. She is 8 years old. I love dogs of every kind and getting along very good with them. Looking forward to take care of your loved ones! Currently I work from home, and my schedule is flexible, so I am very flexible to walk or visit dogs almost at any time. Even if my calendar shows as full - send me a message, we might work it out :) Every dog is unique ♥️🐩🦮🐕🐕🦺🐶Everyone has own personality, habits, likes and dislikes. I always follow the owner’s feeding and caring instructions and try to reproduce the same atmosphere as a pet owner. Please let me know of any dog’s allergies or any triggers, so I can provide to the dogs the best care possible.

“Very professional through the entire expedience. I will definitely use her again. My cats were not afraid of her during that first meeting which is a good sign. Thank you, Kimberly.”


About: I’ve taken care of my own animals since I was 10. I fell in love with animals, and since then volunteer with the local shelters, and I dog sit for family and friends when needed. The doggy’s day out program at the SMRAS has helped me gain so much experience handling and caring for dogs that aren’t my own! I have experience with dogs of all sizes but prefer them on the smaller side! :) I work part time currently, so I definitely have room in my schedule to fit the needs of your furry friend. Though I’d love to set up specific schedules to help cater to both myself and your pet. As I do have my own dogs, I’d do pet check ins at your home, with whatever requirements need to be met, and or walks!

“Cydney did amazing!! Kept in touch with me the whole time and was even available last minute! Also, lulu had upset stomach and ended up puking during her visit and she informed me right away and cleaned it up. I definitely recommend booking her!”


“Georgia was so amazing with our kitties! We never leave town for as long as our trip was and I had so much anxiety about leaving our babies for so long but she did a wonderful job and made sure to take excellent care of them and their needs”


“Cassidy was absolutely great and super helpful! She was very patient and caring to our pup who can be timid with new people at times but he immediately loved her so I think that says a lot!! Will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”


“Alexa has been great! We are new commuters to work and have been worried about how to let our dogs out during the day. We have had total peace of mind with the photos sent and notifications that she is there :)”


About: Growing up, I often took care of my grandmother’s six dogs, including one of my own. I also helped my aunt raise two puppies she rescued from the side of the road. I became skilled at making sure they were well-fed, clean, and properly cared for. I am a student-athlete so I am busy most of the time during the week at 5am-6:30pm, but I'm available all day during the weekends. When I take care of pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine to help the pets feel safe and happy. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get bathroom breaks, and have time to play. I also keep the area clean and follow any special instructions, like giving medicine. I like to send updates and photos so the owner knows their pet is doing well.

About: Hi y’all! My name is Julianna! I am an animal lover with some dogs of my own, but being away from home doesn’t allow me to see them… meaning I have all the more love for your pets! I’m comfortable with pets that may just lounge around, need to go on runs, or climb up the walls. I’m excited to get to know y’all and your furry families! I’m currently working a part-time job in New Braunfels, but am willing to travel anywhere near San Marcos. My schedule changes weekly, but I am always free in the evenings (perfect for family outings or the needed date nights 😉) and would be happy to share times that I’m available as needed.

About: I’ve never lived in a house without a dog. I love dogs and all of their different personalities and quirks. I’ve been a dog grooming for over a year and am constantly handling animals. I’m good at senior care and helping to train puppies. I’ve had old and young dogs and they have all been amazing. I’ve never met a dog I didn’t get along with. I’ll constantly take pictures and send you update photos too. I am currently on a break from working. I can stop in two-three times a day to feed and walk, or however many times you like depending on distance. I can also stay at your house with your fur babies and house sit to. I sometime can board dogs if you need I would just have to check with my roommate! I can stop by multiple times a day at your home to follow your pets schedule of food and walks. I can spend the night with your pet in your home anytime. I have a huge fenced in yard by a lake. We have two sweet cats. There is a back bedroom, connected to the garage with its own entrance and fence away from the rest of the house if your pet isn’t okay with cats, or just needs space.

Jeanique D.
“I've known Jeanique since she was a baby, and it's no surprise to me that my five dogs absolutely love her. They’re drawn to her naturally, and it's clear she has a special way with animals. Most of the time, my dogs just want to sit by her and be near her—there's something about her energy that makes them feel safe and comfortable. Jeanique has taken great care of my dogs, feeding them and even taking them on walks. It's amazing how dogs seem to have a unique ability to sense good, kind people, and my dogs have certainly picked up on that with Jeanique. She truly has a gift when it comes to connecting with animals, and I trust her completely with my furry friends.”


Elizabeth H.
“Elizabeth/Reagan has been a close friend of mine for about 5 years now, and has been kind to pets of all shapes and sizes throughout the time I have known her, whether the animals are her own, others, or lacking a home. Pigs, cats, dogs, reptiles, birds, you name it; they have spent time with them and loved them with their whole heart. A true "pet person," Reagan adores animals and I have no doubt that they would be a fantastic caregiver for anyone's pets.”
