Dog Sitting Martindale

“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!”

I’ve pet-sat for friends with dogs of all sizes and personalities—from Anatolian Shepherds and Pit Bull mixes to Dachshunds and Maltese—and have experience caring for puppies through senior dogs.

Whether your pet enjoys long walks and adventures or prefers relaxing at home, I’m happy to match their pace. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate each pet parent’s needs. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and am happy to work with you to schedule walks and drop-in visits that fit your pet’s routine. Whether they need a quick potty break, playtime, or a long walk, I’m here to help! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities.

“Ande was a great choice! She is very professional and responsive and provides great feedback and photos. Ande is also super nice and helps put nervous pet parents at ease. This was our kitties first time alone and I was completely comfortable that he was taken care of. Thanks Ande!”

I’m very patient, responsible, and attentive to pets’ needs and personalities. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their pets with someone they can trust. I have experience with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, basic grooming, administering simple medications, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m also comfortable caring for both energetic pets and older animals that may need a calmer environment and extra patience. Since I live in a pet-friendly apartment, I’m able to provide a safe and welcoming space for pets to feel comfortable and cared for.

I’m careful with doors, feeding instructions, walks, and supervision, and I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and care.

About: I’ve had animals/ taken care of animals my whole life, I currently have 3 cats, and 2 dogs, and frequently babysit all of my friends babies when they need me to! I’m currently free most of the time besides remote work! I love getting outside to play with animals or just giving them attention so it’s a good break from remote jobs! I don’t offer services from my home but I can assure you I know how to handle emergencies or just any incidents that occur. I’ve had a few in my couple years having animals of my own, and dealing with elderly pets or animals with neurological issues. I know how to use kennels, can read body language like second nature, your babies will always be in attentive hands.

“Megan is fantastic - she is our go to sitter! We’ve had to be out of town more often since moving away from family but we always feel at peace knowing Megan will take care of our pets like they’re her own! We fully trust and recommend her, and know our fur babies are in the best care! She is also very communicative and sends pics without us even asking. Thanks Megan!”

“Kayla has watched my babies multiple times now and she’s like family to us. The dogs love her and I always feel comfortable knowing they’re taken care of well while I’m gone.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for family and friends for a few years now. I have stayed with dogs and cats for days at a time and been responsible for feeding, potty breaks, bathing, playing, and cleaning up after them. I have also assisted with giving medication to pets. I like to leave things better than I found them and have the patience to make sure your pet is thoroughly taken care of! I am currently a student in Texas State University’s Professional Counseling Master’s degree program, so my pet care schedule works around my class schedule! I am taking classes this summer. I am currently sharing an apartment with other people and cannot house your pet. However, in your home I will respect any rules and specifications needed in order to care for your pet.

“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.”

Diana L.

“Jenisa was wonderful! She was available on short notice, which we truly appreciated. She arrived on time, communicated well, and even sent us pictures during her visit. We were very pleased with how she cared for our three cats and would absolutely recommend her!”

About: My mother was a breeder for all sorts of dogs my entire upbringing, so learning dog body language is second nature! I’ve also been around all sorts of bully breeds and own one myself! So not bully prejudice here! I also have loads of chihuahuas, so I feel I’m comfortable working with a variety size of pets, and numbers. I’m also good with cats! So if you have a mixed household, it’s no extra sweat! From mastiffs, to huskies, German Sheppards, blue heelers, collies, to pit bulls, bull terriers, bulldogs, chihuahuas, weenie dogs, greyhounds, and pugs, i feel I can take care of them all! I also babysit for a family on Wednesdays, so the rest of the week, I’m pretty set! I’ll let them know a week prior so nothing gets confused! I’m all for safety! Knowing what foods are poisonous to animals, and very alert on potentials escapes! How to open a door with my whole body to stop kitties from escaping, or puppies from booking it. I also like to jot notes down just in case there’s something your pet is allergic to, or can cause tummy issues, to keep note of. Or really anything that’s note worthy!

About: I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember! Growing up in total I had 4 dogs and I always had some type of responsibility in taking care of them: going on walks, feeding them, cleaning up after them etc. As soon as I moved out I missed the comfort of having a pet, so I got my first dog Lucy when she was 6 weeks old! She has taught me a lot about being a pet parent and the best decision I’ve ever made! Then in early 2023, a year after I got Lucy, another puppy followed me home one day. After trying to contact the owners and them completely ignoring me I took matters into my own hands and gave her a new home, mine! The 2nd best decision I could have made. Her and Lucy are just the best of friends, I could watch them play all day long! I love being a dog mom I would never trade them for anything no matter how hard it gets! I spend my time going to work, hanging out with friends or staying at home with the dogs. I love to take them to the park because they love to run around. My roommate also has a cat so I spend my time at home surrounded by pets! While I am at your home with your lovely pets, I will make sure to give them a lot of love and caring! I will make sure they are getting plenty of activity in their day and lots and lots of pets! I do have a retail job 3 days out of the week for 6-7 hours but I will make sure they are taken care of before I leave and the second I get off. Your animals are my priority. And if you would allow it, if you would like your dog to socialize with other dogs, I have two dogs of my own and I would love to bring my pets to play with yours! They’re very friendly and love to play all day long! If you do not want my dogs to come with me I completely understand!! It is just something I am offering :) I hope you’ll allow me to take care of your furry family!
