“Kendall was absolutely amazing! She stopped by to do a meet and greet on short notice and was also able to check in on Leia for an extra day due to my plans changing. She was so great with Leia and I could tell that Leia really enjoyed her time with Kendall as well. She gave so much attention to Leia while with her, and I really appreciated that. She gave very detailed check ins(with lots of pics), which was so nice as I was out of town. I could not recommend Kendall enough if you are in need of someone to show lots of love to your pup!”

About: As a military brat so many things change, not my love for pets. Constantly always caring for our 4 dogs, Cat and pets of others; always rescuing pets off the streets and fostering them until we find them new homes. I will be coming home (fort worth) and am so ready to meet so many cute cats and doggos again. I’m an online student so my availability is whenever you need me! I have a great fenced area for outside play and an indoor area for the rainy days. 2 very playful huskies and an adorable Boston to keep your fur babies active and enjoying their time.

“Makae was a lifesaver when she was able to take care of my dog last minute. I was nervous because I hadn't used Rover before but she made me feel at ease by sending daily texts and photos of my happy pup. She's such a calm and positive presence and I will definitely trust her to take care of Maya again!”

“I have a very strong and playful dog. This was the first time I've had to get a sitter and I was worried about being able to find someone I felt confident could handle him. Rachel was wonderful and showed me I have nothing to worry about. She sent me an adorable photo of him and had a great write up of everything that went on while she was here. It made me smile and laugh. I enjoyed reading about my dog's usual goofiness and that he was pretty well behaved. I do hope she'll be willing to take him on again! Thank you!!!!”

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and currently have two cats of my own, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I’ve also helped care for pets for family and friends, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m available weekday evenings after 5 and all weekend, and I treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits well into my routine since I work weekdays during the day and am available after 5 PM on weekdays and all day on weekends. I also care for my two cats daily, so looking after pets is already part of my everyday routine! I care for pets in my client’s home by following their routine to keep them comfortable and secure. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions. I also monitor their well-being and keep their environment clean and safe. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and treat every pet and their home with kindness and respect.

About: I’ve grown up with 4 legged friends my entire life. I used to foster little babies still being bottle fed and I have 2 little ones at my home that family has always relied on me to take care of. I’m currently working very part time and would love to spend the rest of my time with your fur babies! I’m available pretty much all hours of the day as well. While in your home I will stick closely to your pups schedule, feeding, walking, etc. I will also help maintain your home such as picking up after your baby and myself.

About: Hey there! Call me Katie. Amateur Animal Whisperer. I LOVE cats and dogs alike. I'm so thankful for your interest and trust in me! I am a lover of nature and all life it encompasses. I have professional experience with animals, children, and house sitting. I do well with animals of all breeds, species, ages and needs. I never meet an animal I don't love. All my life, I have had a gift for bringing peace to otherwise 'unfriendly' or 'unwelcoming' animals. It is not uncommon for me to be cuddling with a friend's dog or cat... Later to find their astonishment at their animal allowing me (or anyone) to do so! I am comfortable and do very well with animals with special needs. I am only 5'2 but I have a passion for Great Danes! And birds! And cats! I feel I am very attentive, intuitive, and loving with people and animals alike. I am looking forward to getting to know your furry family members! Thank you for reading! I am self employed, with a flexible schedule so I can accommodate your pets’ specific needs. I love building relationships and sense of trust with your babies: making them feel safe and loved during drop ins, walks and play time. Life is busy for you! When you’re away, my goal is to bring you and your animal babies peace of mind. I like to adapt to your babies natural routine as closely as possible.

About: I am a dedicated animal lover and proud pet parent to three fur babies of my own—Athena, Bellamy, and Octavia—who mean the world to me. As a full-time nursing student, I value compassion, responsibility, and attentiveness, which naturally extend into the way I care for animals. Spending time outdoors while caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I take pride in providing reliable, loving support for fellow pet parents. Monday–Saturday, 6:00 AM – 10:00 PM. Reliable, attentive, and dedicated. I treat every pet like my own fur babies, focusing on patience, safety, and keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and loved in their home. 🐶🐱💛 I treat every animal as if they were my own fur baby, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness. My dog, Athena, is very friendly and enjoys meeting new companions, and I understand the importance of positive, safe interactions between pets.

About: I have 7 years of pet sitting and dog walking experience, primarily caring for the pets of family and friends. Growing up around dogs and cats of all sizes has made me very comfortable and confident with animals of different personalities and energy levels. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I always make it a priority to stick closely to their feeding, walking, medication, and sleep schedules to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals and giving them the care and affection they deserve. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time during the mornings and throughout the day. This allows me to easily fit pet walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and check-ins into my routine without feeling rushed. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making time for your pets is something I genuinely look forward to. Typically I like to keep my drop-in visits anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour! Whether your pet needs a consistent daily schedule or extra attention during the day, I’m able to provide dependable and attentive care. For drop-in visits and dog walks, I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During drop-ins, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get bathroom breaks, playtime, attention, and any other care instructions requested by the owner. I also spend quality time with them so they feel less stressed and more comfortable while their owner is away. For dog walks, I make sure each walk matches the dog’s energy level and needs, whether that means a slow relaxed walk or a more active one. I always prioritize safety by staying attentive to surroundings, keeping pets secure on walks, and making sure they return home happy and comfortable. I’m very patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy building trust with animals and their owners. If I have any questions or doubts I will always communicate clearly with you!

“Tara was such a great help in dropping by to care for Tesla. She is responsive and very experienced. Highly recommend her and look forward to continue utilizing her awesome skills in the future. Great experience.”
