About: I've owned pets my whole life. I also am comfortable with big or small animals. I understand and am knowledgeable in all breeds. Your fur friends are safe with me. :) I am in school and work as a babysitter/tutor, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I can usually work around your schedule.I typically have lots of time throughout the week. I will listen to your instructions carefully and give your pet extra love and attention! I can provide food, water, walking, play, or whatever else is needed.

“Katie did a great job taking care of our Corgi while we were away for the weekend. The communication was good and we enjoyed seeing pictures of our furry family member while away.”


About: I've taken care of many pets within the family. Small to medium size dogs. Feeding, training, walking, bathing, playing and anything else that is needed. I'm currently attending Texas State University and will be home for the summer. I'll be shadowing for my future career and will have lots of free time! In my clients home i will properly attend to your pet making sure to read cues when they're in need of a bathroom break, food, or enrichment. Making sure they have all needs met and lots of company.

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. I would follow any and all instructions provided by the parents of the pets, whether that be kennel at night or let out to roam.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them never feels like “work” to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. Over the years, I’ve looked after dogs, cats, and small pets with different personalities and needs, from playful puppies to older pets who just want a calm companion. When I pet sit, I focus on making each animal feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their routine. That might mean long walks and fetch in the park, quiet cuddle time, or making sure a special diet or medication is handled properly. I’m also a big believer in keeping owners in the loop, so I love sending photo updates and little notes to show how their pets are doing while they’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, reliability, and lots of care. Caring for pets has always been something I love, and offering part-time pet care lets me combine that passion with a flexible schedule. I’ve looked after dogs, cats, and small pets with all sorts of personalities—from the high-energy pups who never run out of zoomies to the shy cats who just need a little patience to feel at ease. When I visit, I make sure pets get more than the basics of food and water—they get company, playtime, and comfort. I’m happy to take a dog on a long walk, sit quietly with a senior pet, or follow a special routine to keep things consistent while you’re away. Every pet has their quirks, and I enjoy getting to know them individually. My goal is to make sure they feel safe and cared for, and that you feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. When pets come to stay with me, I do my best to make it feel like a second home. I keep their routine as close as possible to what they’re used to—whether that means early morning walks, cozy nap spots, or extra playtime in the yard. There’s always plenty of love, attention, and snuggles to go around, and I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and never lonely. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I know how important it is to stick to their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, and playtime so everything feels familiar to your pet. I love giving them companionship while you’re away—whether that’s a game of fetch, a long walk, or quiet cuddle time. Plus, I’m happy to water plants, bring in mail, or keep an extra eye on things so you can relax knowing everything’s taken care of.

“Krystal was a fantastic pet-sitter for our two cats over the Thanksgiving holiday. She sent lots of pictures each visit and gave them lots of attention and play-time. One of our cats has medical needs, including an oral medication and twice-daily injection. I worry about him sometimes when I am not able to take care of him myself, but Krystal made me feel at ease: her experience as a vet tech means she is already very familiar with how to administer medications, so I was able to feel confident that she had it handled! Krystal was flexible, super fast to respond to messages, and always put the priority on keeping the cats as happy and healthy as possible. Moving forward, we will be booking Krystal to care for our cats whenever we are out of town.”


“Morgan is responsive to messages and sends pics, if requested. She dropped in to let my dogs out while my husband and I were at work. I am grateful for her care and communication.”


About: I have grown up around all sorts of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, a chinchilla, and more. I have been taking care of my current dog for ten years now. I am currently enrolled in Texas State University majoring in mechanical engineering. I am taking online courses this summer so I have plenty of spare time to take care of your pets. I am a very responsible person who loves all animals and will take on jobs with much care and attentiveness. I am happy to exercise with your pet as much as needed as well.

“Angelena has never met an animal she didn’t like or didn’t bond with. She absolutely adores animals and has several of her own. She comes home on weekends during college to watch and babysit the animals if we are out of town, etc. Going to fiesta or the park or a pet store the highlight is seeing all the animals. She is very responsible and caring and would do everything to make sure all animals are cared for the way they should be.”
