“Madilynn did a great job taking care of our two cats! We had an unexpected emergency and Madilynn was able to update us daily with notes and pictures of how our cats were doing. We highly recommend her!”

About: As a veterinary technician at a no-kill animal shelter, I care for hundreds of dogs and cats each year and have hands-on experience with medication administration, injections, diabetic pets, seizure disorders, special-needs animals, post-operative care, anxious or fearful pets, training staff on protocols, and teaching fellow fosters as well as adopters on animal care and behavior. I am also an accomplished foster who has hosted everything from queen cats nursing kittens to weaned kittens, puppies, dogs, and senior animals. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities and I approach every animal with fear-free handling! Lifelong animal lover and former small business owner, I've spent years working with animals of all kinds through veterinary medicine, 4-H, fostering, and therapeutic horseback riding programs. My flexible schedule allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day, and Blink cameras throughout my home help me monitor pets whenever I'm away briefly. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, enrichment, exercise, and individualized attention. Located near nature trails and a large enclosed outdoor area, I offer a safe, comfortable environment where your furry family members can relax, play, and feel right at home. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to take breaks as needed throughout my work days. I do not work on weekends, so I am always at home to attend to the critters! I am also available holidays. With experience caring for orphaned animals daily, including those requiring medications and specialized care, I prioritize your pet's health, safety, and happiness. My flexible schedule, attentive monitoring, and pet-friendly space with enrichment activities, cozy resting areas, and nearby outdoor access ensure your beloved companion receives compassionate, professional care while you're away. 🐾

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.

“Cydney did an excellent job watching my sweetheart. Since she’s an indoor/outdoor cat, I asked for her to keep various food & water bowls filled throughout the house & outdoors. Cydney fulfilled all of my requests and sent reassuring photos, which helped ease my mind that all was okay. Would definitely recommend booking her for your future pet needs.”

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: I've taken care of dogs and cats. I've always had a passion for animals, especially after growing up with several pets, so I love seeing everyone's cute pets I have a completely open schedule at the moment. So I'll be free at any moment and won't turn down a request unless already doing one. I try to make it as seamless as possible since pets can usually get stressed without their parents. Just extra love and following the routine you have already set.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of pets for 8 years. I have helped administer medicine to animals with diabetes. I also have a dog of my own. I am a college student at Texas State and currently have no other job. I am happy to work around my class schedule to provide the upmost care to your pets. I send multiple pictures to the owner of their pets and any activities their pet may engage in. I keep client’s home tidy and look in all rooms with open doors to check for any accidents. I always go outside with pets. On walks I stay on the opposite side of the walkway from other animals or people.

About: I love animals. I've had 2 dogs at all times for the last 22yrs. and a few cats. I live in a large 2 bdrm Apt with my 3 sweet Chihuahuas. I am a dog person and this is a dog house. Plenty of room for a few more to play with. My dogs are friendly. We have a dog park on the property. There are only small dogs here as it is a Senior Living. I will walk your dogs around the complex and they can safely play in dog park area. I'm retired for now and spend all my time with my dogs. Your pet will have all our attention.

Then we. One home and eat breakfast. Playtime for a few hours inside and we go out again. I am very interactive with my dogs and any dogs I am sitting for. I have a large 2 bedroom apartment without the clutter so they can run around and out on patio. Outside for walks and at the dog playground.

About: I was raised on a farm, giving me lifelong experience caring for animals of all kinds. I also foster and adopt pets, and I treat every animal like family. I provide dependable, loving care and understand that every pet deserves patience, attention, and plenty of affection while you’re away. I work remotely weekdays until 2:00 PM, so I’m available most afternoons and evenings for pet care. During the school year, I’m also available for morning visits after 8:00 AM. I have two young children who often accompany me on errands, so I’m best suited for friendly, child-comfortable pets. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard, pet-friendly dogs, cats, and children, and I’m responsible, reliable, respectful of your home, privacy, and your pet’s unique needs.

“Emeline was so great with my maple, she worked on getting her comfortable the first day and played with my cat until she got tried. She was very great at updating me on my cat and sent me many pictures of her :) I’m so glad my cat got along with her and will be using her services for future dates.”

About: Boarding: Hello! My dog, Norman, and I would love to have your beloved fur baby stay with us. I have a large, fenced-in yard with lots of room for playing and running around. I have over 10 years of experience caretaking for pets, and animals are an important part of my life. At this time, I'm only accepting one dog at a time so that I can ensure your pup gets the most care and attention. ***Your dog MUST be on flea meds. I will not take any dog that has fleas. Thanks for understanding.*** We look forward to meeting you! Walking and Drop-ins: I'm attentive & caring, and your dog's safety is my priority. I'll take good care of your pets while you're at work! I'm good at reading and respecting the dog's energy. I know that it can take time to gain a dog's trust, especially as a new person. We can take things slowly if necessary. I work from home, so I'm available the majority of the day. If I leave, it's usually only to run a quick errand. During summer, we would not be outside too long unless you request a river play date. For dog sitting: I have a large, wooden-fenced yard and one small, male neutered dog. He is very friendly + energetic and loves playing with other dogs. Water is always available and plenty of space for relaxing. For walking and drop-ins: Safety is number one priority. Always leashed up and scanning for potential distractions.

“Reagan cared for our pups well (2 LARGE and 2 small fur babies all well looked after). I would love to have her take care of our fur babies again! 10/10 would recommend Reagan.”

“Brandy was absolutely wonderful with Mia! She took such great care of her, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing Mia was in such loving and attentive hands. It’s clear Brandy truly cares about the pets she looks after, and that means everything to us. We’re so happy to have found such a reliable and caring sitter, and we will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“My cats were healthy, happy and well taken care of by Blayne. Opal says “yes, bring her back! Warm lap and she knows right where to scratch my ears!” Azeriphale wants another round of chase the toy mouse!”

Tom H.

“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.”
