House Sitting in McAllen

“Got it—here’s the corrected version of your review with Rex’s name updated: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had the pleasure of having Joyann check in on our Pomeranian, Rex, while we were away for the Thanksgiving holiday, and she did an absolutely amazing job. She cared for Rex with such attention and kindness, sending us pictures throughout the week that gave us peace of mind. Joyann went above and beyond—handling unexpected issues like running out of pads and taking care of accidents without hesitation. Her reliability and thoughtful updates made this our first experience using Rover a wonderful one. We were very impressed and would highly recommend Joyann to anyone looking for a caring, dependable sitter. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Madison watched my Rottweiler for a full week. She sent pictures and videos every day of them playing and relaxing. My dog seemed very calm and well taken care of when I got back. The house was very clean. 5 stars.”

About: I love all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. For me, they carry a child-like innocence that highlights the best parts about being a human. Ideally, I would work in the mornings though some afternoons/evenings work well for me. Talk to me and we’ll schedule a time and make it work! Happy to walk several blocks, spend some quality time with your pet (whether it be playing guitar, singing, or just hanging out and watching tv together).

About: I have a passion for all animals. I am an educator by profession for over 22 years and have cared and owned pets all my life ( dogs ,cats, pigs, cows and horses). I am a semi professional marathon runner and believe not only people but animals benefit from a daily exercise regimen! I am dependable, trustworthy, and loyal. I strongly believe in the welfare of all animals. I will walk or run your dog but due to extreme South Texas summer weather, I will only do it very early morning or evening when its cooler. I will do drop in visits daily as needed. I will send you pictures and videos our your furbabies while you are away. My dedication and compassion for animals set me apart from the rest!

“Natalia was absolutely amazing with my 12-year-old pup, Phoenix 🐾—who is definitely a picky, demanding little diva 😄. She handled her meds, nighttime wake-ups, and constant need for affection like a total pro. I got great updates and could tell Phoenix was genuinely comfortable and cared for during her overnight stay. It’s not easy trusting someone with a high-maintenance senior dog, but Natalia made it feel effortless. Will 100% be booking with her again—highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I have taken care of and owned dogs since I was 10. During the ages of 11-14 I fostered several dogs and worked with a rescue. I also know how to work with puppies and kittens since I rescued my 1 year old cat when he was 3 weeks old. I also regularly dog sit a three dog household for a family memeber for the past four years as well as a three cat household. I also have experience with ferrets and hamsters. I am currently a newly graduated student who has the summers off! I am free to help as long as I have a days notice! I will adjust to any schedule you have for your furbaby. I am also comfortable administering meds if shown the schedule and routine you have.

“This was my first time using a sitter, I had previously had two senior dogs who required little maintenance and my daughter would swing by to see them. Sadly they both passed a way last year, and I have a one year old now who has only been with me six months when I needed to leave. He had been going through a phase of being suspicious of new people in the house, but he warmed up to Gabby after a few hours when she sat on the floor with him in the red chair I have for sitting on the floor! My cat who hates everyone except my son in law (including me), also came and hung out with her, which I regard as a win!”

“Nathalie did a wonderful job taking care of my Forrest. She stayed with him 2 days and communicated regularly with me through messages and pictures. it was my first time using a sitter and it was short notice but she made it all stress free. Thank you Nathalie!”

About: I started volunteering at veterinary clinics when I was 17. I am now a veterinary technician at 25 and want to focus on animals living their best lives. I have taken care of animals of all sizes from Guinea pigs and snakes to horses, so I’m ready for whatever comes my way. I look forward to meeting you & your furry (or scaley) friends! I am currently working full time most weekdays (7:30pm-6pm), so I will be available for drop in visits before or after that. For house sitting jobs, I am available most of the weekend barring a quick trip to grandma’s house on Saturdays. I like to meet your pet while you are at your home, so when I go to care for them it is not a complete stranger walking into their house. Regardless, I will go as slow as the pet needs me to. I am able to administer all forms of medications as needed to ensure you come home to your pet in the same condition you left him/her in.

About: One of my biggest values is helping others. Building that trust with owner and pet is very important to me. I would love nothing more than to be that extra special friend to you and your furry friend! From puppies to senior dogs, I've constantly been relied on by friends and family to care for their own furry friends. I've made daily visits for both small and larger dogs for up to an entire week! Both pet and owner are always left satisfied with wagging tails. I'm at home 24/7, therefore pet care can fit into my daily and weekly routine very easily. I'm available every day from 6am-6pm unless stated otherwise. I can make up to 6 visits a day within a 7 mile radius. I have two small indoor dogs of my own; a 4 year old Pug and 14 year old Chihuahua. I take them out 4-5 times a day especially due to my Chihuahua's old age. Both are always rewarded with treats and pets afterwards! Fear not, I will love and care for your furry friend with the same amount of TLC as I do with my own, guaranteed. All boundaries and environments will be respected 100% as this is one of my biggest values. Your trust, comfort, and peace of mind is another thing I prioritize the most, next to your furry friend of course!

About: I’ve had pets since I was a toddler, and I currently own two senior dogs and a cat. I’ve volunteered at pet shelters while in college, and am ready to share the love! I’m currently a part time student, and have plenty of free time. I’m available after 3PM on the weekdays, and completely free on the weekends. I have two dogs and usually let them free roam around the house during the day and crate them at night. However, each pet owner has their own routine that I am more than willing to follow.

About: Hello! I’m jessica and I would love to be able to care for your pets! Besides having my own pets, I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 15. I am 23 now. I’ve always had a pet since I was young I’ve had dogs, cats and even bunnies! I have such a love for animals of any kind, and when I had time, I used to volunteer at my local animal shelter. Your pets will be treated as if they were my own! I am currently working full time but I am available any time during the weekends. During the week I am available any time after 7pm or anytime in the morning from 7am-11:30am!! At my own home, I have a fence and a large backyard so your pets would be free to run around. I also allow pets on furniture and bed!

About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs since I was little. I have raised and fostered puppies and kittens, and know how to administer basic aid. My home is pet friendly and safe for all fur-babies. I have full availability to do drop-in visits or boarding during the weekdays or weekends. I am very flexible with times and setting up a meet and greet if needed. I am looking forward to meeting your fur babies! I have a fenced yard, a friendly chihuahua, and 3 cats who love to play with other animals. We have lots of toys, a cat tree, treats, and free feeding- unless you require specific meal times and special diets.

“She took good care of my kitties while I was gone. They were perfectly fine when I got home had food and water and she sent me a text message and picture of her feeding one of my cats while I was gone. She was great. I loved how she checked in with me often”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a farm caring for many different types of animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve also trained several of my own dogs, giving me experience with basic obedience, routines, and handling pets with different energy levels and temperaments. In addition, I’ve pet sat for friends and family many times, caring for pets as if they were my own by providing plenty of love, attention, exercise, and dependable care. I’m passionate about creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for every pet I meet. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule during the weekdays and full availability on weekends. I currently work full time during the week, but I’m able to leave on breaks and also accommodate early morning visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins. My weekends are completely open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for easily fits into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure they are happy and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience handling animals with different personalities and energy levels, so I’m patient and adaptable with each pet. Whether it’s walks, potty breaks, play sessions, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also respect my client’s home by keeping everything clean, organized, and following all instructions carefully.

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and they are my joy and happiness. I simply lovee dogs and enjoy their presence and making them happy the way they make me feel.❤️ Im available all day. Currently not working so i have so much free time in my hands and would love to spend them with your fur baby🥰 I have a big front and back fenced yard. Everything is secured. I also have cameras outside on every side possible. Clear view of everything.

“Emily is amazing! She took care of my girlies like they were part of her family for the house sitting I booked. She was able to administer eye drops and spray to one of my girls without any issue. Definitely will reach out for future house sitting/pup care.”

About: My experience as a CNA and EMT sets me apart, as I provide safety-focused, dependable, and compassionate care. I am skilled in caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals requiring extra attention, ensuring peace of mind for every owner. I am currently unemployed and am available full-time. I can make a personal, detailed schedule for you. You need to feel safe with your pet caregiver. I would require a list of requirements that you would like me to follow. My gentle care for your animal will ensure they have a home away from home.

About: I have years of professional veterinary experience working with animals, I am dog/cat CPR certified, and I have my own personal experience raising and training animals. I work full time doing dog/cat sitting so any job I get I will definitely make the time for, and I will be willing to dedicate my time to any job. I ensure that the pets are happy and always well taken care of, whether they need water, food, attention, toys, etc. I make sure they have it and are well taken care of.

About: The truth is; i am gifted when it comes to animals. But dogs are my heart. They are clear communicators, and when their needs are met, they are a joy. All ages and breeds welcome. Can also offer gentle or strict parenting/training/guidance on request. Pet care is simple; ensuring the animals safety and specific needs are being met, while also paying attention and being aware of their cues. A constant combination of attentiveness, exercise, hygiene, and nutrients. Plenty of love and clean water, always. Caring for animals is about being present. Being in tune with both their needs and desires. For my fur babies, I always make sure that their needs are taken care of before my own, just like a child. If the parents of the fur babies I am caring for have specific instructions, I am great at that as well. You know your babies better than anyone.
