We love Paige! Our dogs really enjoy their time playing with her and I love that she sends such good pictures. It’s very comforting to know that she’s going to be there in the afternoon to give them some respite from their long days alone while we work.

Megan and Patrick did great with my cats! They were well fed and comfortable when I got home. I got picture updates of each cat every time they stopped by. They were also quick to respond to any messages.

About: If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, you’ve come to the right place. I’ve spent decades caring for animals of all kinds, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want a cozy place to rest to fostering bottle fed kittens that I’m just weaning. I’m experienced with a wide range of breeds, personalities, and temperaments, so whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I know how to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I truly love animals, and it shows in the way I care for them. Your pets will get plenty of attention, affection, and yes—lots of snuggles! I take the time to understand each animal’s unique needs and routine, so they feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. I can also welcome your pets into my home while you’re gone. I do have my own dogs but my house has two separate areas that can be used. This would include as many potty and sniff breaks as they want in my fenced backyard as well as all the couch snuggles! I’m currently a stay at home mom to school aged kiddos so I have plenty of time to love on your animals! Walks loves and snuggles available! I can provide car in your home or mine! I have a fenced yard at my home and will keep them separate from my animals. I understand how to be respectful in someone else’s home and want to make everyone’s experience positive.

About: I have 40 years of pup to elder care experience. Training, care and presence for comfort and ease of the dog while owners are away can ease stress. Giving them attention and distraction will help in the owners absence. I’m retired and am wiling to take on all schedules and scenarios. I can feed, water, walk and administer medicine as needed and on schedule. I care for my dogs as if they are my kids. They are fed, cared for and vetted regularly. I would care for the owners dogs the same way or whatever way they ask me to.

I love the pictures and timely visits to my cats while away for christmas. She made sure they were fed and had clean water and took time to play with them even for a few minutes. This was beyond what we expected. I will hire her again if she is available when we go out of town again.

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have owned my dog since he was a puppy, so I understand the patience, care, and attention dogs need at every stage. I’ve also helped train both my own dog and dogs for neighbors, which has given me experience with different personalities, routines, and behaviors. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and can work with your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for in both my home and yours. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions to create a safe and trusting environment.

Taylor was great with my babies, I’m definitely a worrier and hate leaving my dogs but it was definitely a relief to know they’re being well taken care of in the comfort of their own home. She was very patient and understanding with my girl Cleo who is terribly shy and can be wary of strangers. We had a couple meet and greets ahead of time and she really went out of her way to accommodate my girl. My first time using a pet sitter that wasn’t a personal friend who knows my dogs well and any worry I had was squashed very quickly. The constant updates definitely put me at ease as much as possible when I’m away from my kids. Even brought in some auto ship Chewy packages that happened to be timed for the days we were away. Being able to avoid a boarding facility for my babies was great since my nervous girl tends to not trust strangers when it comes to bathroom breaks, and I worried she wouldn’t eat in a facility due to stress. Not to mention being able to see my dogs as soon as we got back from our trip is the best. Would definitely recommend and use her in the future.

Lisa was absolutely amazing!! We went out of the country for 10 days and Lisa took such great care of our 2 cats. I would highly recommend Lisa!! We will be using her again in the future. She updated us daily and sent us pics everyday. She was very responsive and is such a nice and caring person. We are so thankful for her and all her hard work to take care of our fur babies. If you need a pet sitter, Lisa is the #1 choice!

About: I've taken care of my own pets since I was a young child. I also worked at CARE Animal Rescue and volunteered at The Humane Society which means I'm familiar with a variety of animals. I feed, walk, bathe, administer oral medications, play with animals, and overall spoil them. I currently am a stay at home mom who homeschool's her 3 children. We will have plenty of time to spend quality time taking care of your pets needs, playing, cuddling, going for walks, car rides etc. I have a fenced in backyard and 3 fur babies who can help keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your fur baby if needed. Walking our fur babies is part of our daily routine and will include your fur baby too. Our fur babies are fed two times a day however, if your fur baby requires more or less or a special diet I can accommodate that as well. Our fur babies are provided dog beds as a comfy place to lounge during the day or night. At night dogs are allowed to sleep on the bed or a dog bed is available. Fresh clean water is available all day long.

About: I currently have two dogs of my own and they’re a big part of our family. Most of my experience comes from caring for my own pets. One of which has Addison’s Disease and requires special medication, so daily medication is something I would be comfortable assisting with when caring for other’s pets. I also have several years of experience with house sitting and drop ins for our family members pets. I absolutely love animals and would love to help others by making sure their pets are loved and taken care of while owners are away from home. I currently working full time Mon-Fri but I do have free time in the morning, during my lunch hour, and evenings are free. If morning care is needed it would be prior to 7:00am, my lunch break is around 11:00 each week day, and I’m available after 4:30 during the work week. Weekends are open so I can be more flexible. I don’t offer care to other’s pets in my home but I am happy to come to you! I will take care of your pet where they are most comfortable making the experience less stressful.

About: I adopted my first dog, Molly, in 2018 (you can see her in my profile photo). Ever since then, I have loved dogs, as well as other animals. Before I had Molly, I also had my own horse for 4 years. For the time being, I am available afternoons, Monday through Friday. I want to take care of your dogs, while also reserving enough time for my own dog. I will treat your dog the same way I treat my dog. I view each animal as an individual with their own needs and wants, and I will do my absolute best to meet those needs, as well as keep your dog happy and healthy!

About: I volunteered with Patriot Paws of Aggieland where I helped to raise and train service dogs for veterans at no cost to those veterans! I have also worked at Sit Means Sit Dog Training. I am very well experienced with dogs! I work weekdays but have nothing on weekends!! I'm excited to meet your babies! On weekends I can be very flexible, I do have my own fur baby to take care of but am capable of doing both! I make sure to not let the animals out of my sight for more than 2 minutes! I love to play with them or just lay around depending on what the animal prefers!

Katelyn did an amazing job and took care of things that I didn't even ask her to do. Sent updates and pictures of my kitties. They seemed very comfortable with her which is amazing since they are typically scared of strangers. Will definitely use her again the next time we are out of town 🥰

Claresse was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures and daily updates while I was on vacation. I am so happy that I chose someone who took the time to make sure my little gentlemen were cared for had the chance to get their energy out. She was really easy to work with and I would totally recommend.
