Dog Sitting in Rio Grande

About: I’ve had animals my whole life I love to pet , brush & play with all kinds. A nice long walk is always needed or just some playtime. I’m a stay at home mom of all adult children who also love all kinds of animals. I’m available any time of day or night.I spend most of the summer away so my availability will be based on what type of care is needed. I have a large fenced in yard ( when watching pups in my Bucks county Pa home) for them to run and play in or I'm available to go to your home for feeding, walks & check ins. We are a dog & cat friendly home.

“Mariah is amazing! Mariah watched Champ for 4 days over the Easter break. She came 3x each day so we could visit with family.”

“Victoria filled in for my full time dog sitter on short notice. She went out of her way to meet with my dog to prior to booking to make sure they felt comfortable around each other. She is kind, professional and took excellent care of my dog. Great communication, updated me with photos and made sure my house was secure. Highly recommend and hopefully book again when needed.”

About: My skills include loving treatment, responsibility and efficiency. I love pets and take care of them just like the children I take care for, with love. I’m babysitting 3 hours a day from Monday to Friday for a 5 year old girl and then I’m free to take care of pets. I’m willing to sleep at my client's house to take care of her/his pet. All my life I have loved and had contact with animals but in the last 4 years this has intensified. I treat animals the same way and with the same love as I treat a person. My pets are like my children.

“Kenzie took great care of our two cats while we were away. Even though they are fearful of new people and did not interact much, Kenzie stayed for the whole time to try and coax them out to say hello. She sent photos every day and did exactly as we asked and then some! Will definitely use Kenzie again when we go out of town.”

“Katie is the best! We needed a last minute walk for our dog and came through for us! We cannot wait to use her in the future!”

About: I’ve been lucky to share my life with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I cared for my German Shepherd/Collie mix for 9 wonderful years, during which we completed multiple training programs together. That experience gave me a strong foundation in handling, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Currently, I’m raising a playful 5-month-old Great Pyrenees mix who recently graduated from puppy training class. I understand the patience, structure, and love it takes to guide pups through their learning stages while making sure they feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s long walks, structured play, or plenty of cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own—because I know they’re family. Since I work from home, pets naturally fit into my daily routine. I’m able to plan my day around walks, playtime, and snuggle breaks, which means your furbaby gets consistent attention and care throughout the day. Having flexibility in my schedule allows me to provide both structure and plenty of love, making sure pets feel safe, happy, and part of the family We love to go on many walks around town and I am open to hearing your needs to tend to your furbaby! If you are looking to socialize your pup, I’d love for our dogs to meet and hang out to burn some energy!

“Trey does a great job, shows up promptly and communicates well. Sends a picture update each visit. He even defended our Kimi against some unleashed dogs in my neighborhood, he went above and beyond, thanks Trey! We will definitely use his services again.”

About: I’ve been around and caring for pets most of my life. Over the years, I have pet sat for friends and family and have been trusted to walk, feed, bathe, and provide loving care for both cats and dogs. I also regularly walk dogs down the shore. I recently moved into a one-story, two-bedroom home in a quiet neighborhood and am excited to welcome more furry friends into my care. While my yard is currently unfenced, I am committed to providing safe, attentive, and personalized care for every pet. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the importance of treating every pet like family and providing them with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I am currently a teacher and have extensive availability through the summer. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to accommodate pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care as needed. I live with my partner in a quiet neighborhood with a backyard that is currently unfenced. Our home is a one-story, two-bedroom house with a spacious living room and mostly hardwood floors. We currently do not have any pets of our own, allowing us to give your furry friend our full attention and care.

“Josie was very communicative and helped ease my anxieties about leaving our baby with a new person for the first time!!! Will definitely book again :)”

About: I grew up volunteering at animal shelters on the weekends and doing everything from administering medicine to dog washing. At home, I have a 1 yr old chihuahua! I am a college graduate from Seton Hall and I can be flexible depending on your schedule. I work at Congress Hall from 10-5 several days each week. Please give me your pet’s schedule and I will make sure to fulfill all your expectations. I am clean, courteous, and quick to pick up on signs something might not be right.

About: Animals are truly all that make me happy these days. I have always loved and cared for all pets in my family, from hamsters to all sizes of dogs. Growing up surrounded by all types of pets has given me a good amount of experience. Waking up bright and early to feed and walk my dogs. As well as saving a few kittens and giving them happy homes! Nothing makes my heart happier than caring for what I love most in this world, animals. They truly are the greatest gift to the world. I am the kind of person who says hi to dogs walking down the street. While helping out some fellow animal lovers when they need assistance, I would certainly give my all! I am currently a student but the classes are fully online so I will have a very flexible schedule! Animals’ needs will always be met first! I have a nice sized yard that is fenced in as well so the pups will be safe! The inside of my home is very spacious for dogs or cats to run around and play! I also do not have any pets at the moment so there is no need to worry if your pet does not get along with other pets!

About: I have two dogs of my own that I train, walk, and care for every day. Through raising them, I’ve gained a lot of experience with dog behavior, exercise routines, and basic training. I’m very patient, responsible, and genuinely love being around animals. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and care so they feel safe and happy! You can expect reliable and attentive care for your dog. I’m experienced with daily walks, exercise, and basic training since I care for and train my own two dogs. I’m patient, responsible, and make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Availability: • Weekends: Mostly available all day, but afternoons work best. • Weekdays: Available from 6:00–9:00 PM. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention for your dog while you’re away. In My Home: Pets in my home will be cared for in a safe, clean, and calm environment. I have experience caring for my own two dogs, including daily walks, feeding, and basic training. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and supervision. I keep a close eye on their behavior and make sure they feel comfortable and secure while they are with me. In a Client’s Home: When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions for feeding, walks, routines, and rules for the pet. I make sure pets stay on their normal schedule so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I give them lots of attention, exercise, and care, and I make sure they are always safe and well looked after.

“Alexi faithfully made sure the cats were fed, despite winds, rain and flooding!”

About: I've raised dogs my entire life! Over the last 5 years, I've started house sitting for family friends for upwards of 3-4 weeks at a time, adding cats, bunnies, and birds to the rotation. Currently until the end of June, I will be working about 4 days a week as a substitute teacher. I'm usually out of the house by 6:30a and home around 3:15p. If it's a day where I don't have a job scheduled, then I'm free :) I am very adaptable, reliable, clean and thoughtful when it comes to caring for clients animals, especially in their homes. I will be cognizant of whatever rules and guidelines you lay out for me to make sure your animal is getting the best care!

About: I’ve watched multiple dogs at once all my life, making sure they get all the attention and love they need. I also love to just walk around so your babies will get the exercise they need. I’m free most hours Sunday through Thursday. Saturday and Friday get a little iffy but I’m sure I can work stuff out. I work part time so most of my day would be spent caring for your dogs. I will play with your dog walk them as long as they need. I’ll let them out and make sure they are as safe as they can be.

“This was my second time asking Sterlin to walk my dog, and she accepted my request on VERY short notice. I'm very grateful to have her as a walker!”

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was a child, and we currently have a farm with 4 horses! We have have two dogs of our own, a Welsh Corgi and Husky/ Australian Shepherd mix, along with 5 goats and lots of chickens; my parents have a Welsh Corgi as well and two Labrador Retrievers. There are plenty of animals and stimulation to go around. I am comfortable with animals of all sizes, ages, and breeds. I am comfortable with giving medication, walks, baths, dog park visits, as well as training basics. I am always happy to accommodate client and fur-baby needs! From late night potty breaks, to farm/house sitting and all the extras, I'm up for anything to keep your 4-legged kids comfortable and happy! I do work full-time, Monday through Friday, with very low-key, quiet weekends. I work 9-5 in Middle Township, and can accommodate play time and potty breaks before, during, and after work if necessary. As long as your fur-babies are able to go 4 hours in the AM/PM for potty breaks, I’m happy to spend my lunch with them for a walks, potty breaks, or a midday snack. Im around most weekends and can usually accommodate schedules with prior notice, and am happy to do walks and toys and adventures while you are away/ working. I like to keep animals on the same schedule, with as little change or variation as possible. The less stress I can cause, the happier they will be until your return! I am an early riser, and always up by 7am for morning breakfast and potty breaks, as well as very active and enjoy walking and dog parks and playing with your fur-babies. I do have a welsh corgi, who goes everywhere with me, should your fur-baby want/need company! If you fur-baby likes to travel/go for rides, I would be happy to bring them over to our farm to enjoy running around on 10 acres! (We also love car rides to Starbucks for a puppachino while out and about!)

“Thank you Alyssa for taking such wonderful care of our two special guys! We hope you will be available for the next time we need to travel.”
