This my third time using Chloe for pet sitting my doggies and she is the absolute best!! My dogs love her and get super excited to see her each and every time. It feels so good to have peace of mind and know your fur babies are well taken care of when you’re away.

I simply cannot rate Tisha more highly. I'd leave 10 starts if I could. She was kind, communicative, timely, sent daily notes and photos, etc. Tisha made me feel so comfortable leaving my kitty while I was on vacation. I will happily have Tisha kitty sit again. Thank you!

About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including pregnant mamas and newborn pups—I bring more than just love to pet sitting. I’ve assisted in safe deliveries, cared for litters, and provided round-the-clock attention to dogs with special needs. I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and training, so their good habits stay strong even while you’re away. Whether it’s belly rubs, behavior reinforcement, or late-night check-ins, your pet will be cared for like they’re my own. I plan my day around the pets I care for. From morning walks to evening check-ins, their needs come first, and I always make sure to give them structure, love, and attention throughout the day. Whether pets are staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, their comfort and routine are my top priority. I adapt to their personality and needs—whether that means active play, extra snuggles, or sticking to a specific training or feeding schedule. I always aim to provide a calm, loving, and reliable environment they can feel secure in.

About: Started helping dog/cat sitting as a side gig with my mother’s clients in high school. Just moved back to the Corpus/Portland area and looking to continue. Not only do I please my clients, but most importantly their pets! I grew a love caring for animals on our family ranch in West Texas. (Horses, Cows, Goats, Roosters, Dogs, Cats, + more) I am currently working part-time as a server. My schedule changes week to week, but besides that my lax school schedule makes me very flexible. My girlfriend and I are very active people. Playing at a park or going for a stroll is just as much fun for us as it is for your pet.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets when leaving home. I have also had many different types of pets in my life time including chameleons, ferrets, and raccoons. I have trained many puppies and taken care of a few senior dogs. I currently have a 9lb dachshund named Winnie that is now owned by my family because she formed an inseparable bond with my mother 😅. Therefore, the only pets in my house in my roommates cats, which stay in her room 24/7. I miss my dog and I am looking forward to bonding with your pets!! I am a graduated nursing student who is leaving Corpus Christi on May 30th, but would love to make some friends in the meantime. When sitting, I will commit all of my time into your pet and will move any part of my schedule around them. I will gladly take them for walks in the park ans many times as they want and around my house, I don’t mind bathing or grooming if needed, and I have also trained many dogs in my lifetime. If this is not what you are looking for, I would also love to just lay around and hang out with them.

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was eight years old, giving me years of hands-on experience. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for any type of dog like elderly and special needs dogs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Because I am currently in school and working part-time, I am most available in the evenings and on weekends. However, I am flexible and willing to work with schedules when needed to find something that works for both of us. I am patient and observant when walking dogs, always paying close attention to their body language during walks and playtime to ensure their safety and comfort. I also like to keep things engaging by introducing new activities and experiences to keep them entertained and happy.

About: I am a trust worthy selflessness responsible mother, so I supply love and attention to your fur babies with friendly service as we all deserve to have. When It's my time to be responsible for your babies, they are always on my mind and they are my first priority when I'm off work. I'm a Substitute Teacher for the Ingleside ISD. My free time is spent with family and art. Usual days are cleaning, cooking, running errands, and picking my children up from school. Unfortunately I no longer have pets in my home due to personal reasons. They were well loved and at liberty. I would spend some of my time with them going on cruises, getting pup cups, and playing with their toys.
