Pet Sitting New Deal

About: I grew up training and showing dogs! I've also been a trusted volunteer dog walker/foster parent for local humane societies in the past, taking care of dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages! My family frequently fostered litters of puppies as young as 6 weeks. I also have plenty of experience with seniors and the specific health problems that come with that, after loving my cocker spaniels right up to the end. Life doesn't allow me to have a dog of my own at the moment, so I'll jump on any chance for some pupper love! I daylight as a professional wildlife biologist, but I am currently between jobs and so have all the time in the world to give your four-legged companions! My schedule is wide open. Safety is, of course, the highest priority, and reading animal body language is the key to maintaining a safe and enjoyable environment for your pet and avoiding stressful situations. This is a skill I feel very confident with after so many years of varied pet care. Second to safety is fun! Whether that looks like a brisk walk, a casual stroll, a laser pointer, a game of fetch, or just getting some relaxed quality time in is entirely up to your pet. Regardless, I'm happy to fulfill their needs.

“We had such an amazing experience with Kassandra during our wedding weekend! 🐾🤍 Leaving our two babies while traveling for our wedding was something I was honestly a little nervous about, but from the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease. She was attentive, caring, communicative, and treated our dogs like her own. We received updates and check-ins, which meant so much to us and allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding without constantly worrying about how our babies were doing. It was such a relief knowing they were safe, happy, loved, and well taken care of while we were away. Our dogs clearly had a great time and were comfortable with her, which says everything! I’m so grateful for the care and kindness she showed our babies during such a special weekend for us. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely loving toward their pets. We will definitely be using her again! 🐶❤️ Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our babies! You gave us one less thing to worry about during our wedding weekend, and we truly appreciate it! 💍🐾”

I have also trained and cared for my families dogs every since I was old enough to do so.

About: I grew up around dogs, cats, turtles, rats, reptiles, insects, and definitely a few more I don’t remember. I can help with whatever is needed. I am currently living on campus at college, however all of my classes get out at 2pm. I also have more than enough time between classes to drop in and check on/ take care of an animal. I’ll care for your pets however you need. They’re picky? Don’t like people? High energy? I’ve got it. I worked as a dog trainer/groomer for two years and have experience with all temperaments.

About: Hello I’m Ashton! I grew up in Central Texas and throughout my life I have had several pups all the way from a Great Dane named Samson to a Miniature Schnauzer named Roxi. One of my babies just left this world and his name was Dakota he was 14 and the most handsome old man. I now have a 8 year old Great Dane/ English Mastiff named Bronson.

About: I've had many dogs ranging from senior to puppy and love them all with their different quirks. All animals require something different and am willing to jump in to whatever they need! I am currently a freshman at TTU in the Pre-veterinary track. Outside of my set class schedule I am free to whenever you need me! I love walking dogs and playing with them. Whatever you ask such as crating I am more than willing to take care of. I do not mind I will listen to what your pet needs and make it happen.

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including my own pets and those of family friends while they are out of town. I love animals and understand how important it is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I am dependable, patient, and dedicated to treating every pet like my own! Pet care fits into my week well as I have the time to stop by during lunch and the late afternoon to walk, feed, or take care of a pet especially on weekends. I feed my pets, walk them, play and spend time with them, and I protect them at all costs no matter what. I make sure to spend time with them daily as they are a part of the family.

About: Growing up with dogs—from my childhood Yellow Lab, Chili, to my German Shepherd, Jaylee—instilled in me a lifelong love and deep respect for pets. I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends for years, handling everything from daily walks to overnight care. As a college student, caring for dogs isn't just a side job for me; it’s something I truly enjoy. I take pride in providing a safe, attentive, and fun environment where your pup feels right at home. As a biochemistry major with a double minor in math and biology, I’m used to staying organized and focused. I intentionally manage my workload so I never take on pet care unless I can give your dog the full time and attention they deserve. My busiest day is Thursday during my lab, but because most of my coursework is online, I’m home study-buddy style with your pets during the week. Plus, I keep my Saturdays completely free for fun trips to the park or Starbucks pup cup runs! When caring for your pet in your home, trust and safety are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and ensure your pet is kept supervised and out of harm’s way by keeping all hazardous items completely out of reach. I also believe that clear communication brings peace of mind, so I send frequent updates and photos throughout the visit to keep you connected with your pet every step of the way!

About: Taking care of dogs and cats for neighbors and friends for the longest time making them my priority in my free time. Currently, I am a TTU student wanting to give love in my free time. I am able to visit early in the morning and late at night in addition to during the day or housesitting. I have a very flexible schedule. I have a Sheltie and a cat. My home is fenced, I walk my dogs with harnesses and I enjoy taking them on new adventures to different parks.

“We had just moved and our two cats were nervous and unadjusted. Linda took good care of them, found them in their various hiding spots, and put up with some shenanigans. We got plenty of pictures and messages along the way. She also brought in some packages and plants. Will use again.”

“So patient and great with my odd ball cat! She made sure I knew every detail about her visits and made sure my cat was still being loved in my absence!”

About: I have been pet sitting for about 2 years, but it is my favorite side job! I love animals of all kinds and sizes and have been trusted to stay in homes to take care of people’s beloved family members, and their home. I’m currently an elementary school teacher at Wolffarth Elementary in North Lubbock. Depending on what area I am in, I will usually leave with enough time to get to work by 7am. I cannot leave for lunch as I sadly only have 30 minutes, but I am done by 4 every day. This makes it easy to spend the evening with them and I won’t have different hours every day - routine is great for pets! I also share holidays with students so I am pretty available for sitting jobs at those times. While my apartment is a 1 bedroom, it is cozy and great for lower energy dogs. I have plenty of space for them to lay out and they stay in the air conditioning all day. For more active pets, I live right next to a middle school with a paved track for walking, and I am close to a park for dogs who love to run and play fetch!

About: I have always had dogs growing up, big and small. I love all sorts of animals and can care for dogs, cats, and other household pets. I have 2 dogs, a Vizsla and a Morkie. Our vizsla is a bird dog with very high energy. I trained him in puppy training all through intermediate. I also have done service hours with the Animal Shelter. I am a junior in college at Texas tech University, I have a consistent schedule with classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11-3. In the school year I am in Lubbock and during the summer I am in the DFW area. I am attentive and patient with your dog and their needs. I will always contact you if I feel something is wrong but also use my best knowledge and judgment to not take up your time. I have lived with dogs all my life, especially a couple that would run out the door, I feel I am able to manage dogs escaping and those with very high energy. I care to get to know your pet and love it, because I know they mean just as much to you as my own pets mean to me.

About: I absolutely love animals! I have had dogs my whole life and house sat numerous times for 5+ dogs at a time! A dogs safety is absolutely my priority when taking care of them! I love absolutely getting to meet new fun and loving animals! I currently work part time and am in collage online! So I have plenty of spare time to help out other pet parents when i’m free! I am very good with dogs in any situation! I can crate the dogs if needed! I also can help to keep the dogs refreshed and happy!

About: My family is full of big dog lovers! German Shepard’s, huskies, collies, golden retrievers, and more! I have also cared for and loved smaller dogs such as chihuahuas, Yorkis, multis’s, and terriers! I love dogs no matter how big, small, or silly they are! I have school and then I volunteer at a vet, on weekends I also work on school work and have family time. My schedule is flexible! I feed my animals, give them water, change litter or pee pads, take them out for walks or just simply give them the care and play time they need!
