“Mo did a fantastic job taking care of our senior dog. Mo’s experience showed when asking for every possible detail on how best to care for both animals. Communicated very well, and kept everything nice and clean. Highly recommend.”

About: I’m Jacob, a full time nurse, looking for a side hustle to help pay off my student loans :) If you trust me with your pet(s) I will make them my top priority. I will shower them with attention, and take lots of pictures to update you with about our day. I work 3 days a week. I have plenty of free time during the week for your pet’s needs. It would be such a fulfilling past time for me to care for your animals. I live alone in a quiet apartment with no other animals. There’s a good amount of space. Quick and easy walk to the trail around lady bird lake.
“Paula took wonderful care of my sensitive, sweet greyhound. She spoiled her like the princess she is. And she took fantastic care of the house, plants, etc. She stayed with sweet Nyxie for two whole weeks, and everything ran smoothly the whole time, with lots of photos and reports to keep me in touch. Thanks so much!”

“Cienne took great care of my pups! She stayed at my home and sent lots of updates which I love. My girls looked very happy and comfortable. Will definitely have her over again!”


“Christine was wonderful! This was our first time booking her services, and I would highly recommend her. From our first meet and greet, it was clear she had a lot of experience caring for animals. She was easy to talk to, had good communication during our time away, and went out of her way to care for our dog, Jovi (who can be a bit of a handful and hard to walk sometimes!). She even went out of her way to take him to his favorite park/trail one of the evenings. The coolest thing was finding out she had cared for Jovi when he was a puppy before we adopted him (we’ve had him since he was 1 year old). His previous owner had also contacted Christine for dog sitting, and she was able to look back through her pictures and find young puppy photos of our Jovi! It was totally meant to be! 😆 I highly recommend Christine for all of your animal care needs!”

“Arantxa was such an amazing sitter! We were in ATX for a week & needed a sitter on NYE & the day after. She was extremely flexible & worked with our schedule as needed & just from how the dogs were with her, I could tell they REALLY bonded with her while in her care! That says so much coming from my 3 with only meeting someone for 2 days. I would HIGHLY recommend Arantxa to anyone in the ATX area who's looking for pet care! Thank you so so much for taking such amazing care of our babies! :) <3”

“Brittany took great care of my two nervous pups. It was a last minute booking as my other sitter had to cancel. She was quick to respond and come meet us. She’s trustworthy and respected my dogs wanting their space.”

“Amelia took such good care of my senior pup! She was attentive, communicative, and genuinely cared about his interests, habits, etc. she went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. She’s the best - I’ve already rebooked!”

“Woody took great care of our scaredy pup Bella. Bella can be challenged when new people come into her life. Woody took steps to help Bella with this and was able to gain her trust. We hope highly recommend Woody for your pet's care.”


“Melissa was amazing with Teddy! He is pretty weary of strangers at first, but she handled him perfectly. She stayed at my apartment for 4 days and when I got back home everything looked exactly the way I left it. I texted her everyday, if not twice a day to check on Teddy and she always promptly responded and provided photos. I will absolutely book with her again!”


“It was a pleasure having Stephanie in our home! Our poodle is very particular about people and took to her immediately. Will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

“Sara was amazing! She took our dogs on daily walks, sent daily photos, and loved on our animals so well. Our home was very well taken care of. She was kind and respectful. I fully trusted her to be in my space with my beloved animals. Will definitely ask her back!”

“Will 100% book another house sitting with Steven! I do not leave my anxious and timid Chihuahua with just anyone. She requires time to get to know people before trusting them. I was leaving for a day trip and needed someone to stay with my girl. Steve was easy to book and communicative throughout the entire process. We had a couple hours of overlap between me leaving and him coming in to take care of her. Within the first few minutes of meeting him and discussing her needs, I could tell he was going to be able to win my pup over. He kept me updated and let me know how she was doing at several points. It was so reassuring to have an attentive individual keep her happy and let me be worry-free for my trip. Thanks, Steven, for your patience and I appreciate you being so warm towards my pup! If you have a rescue pup, like mine, and are nervous about who to leave them with, Steven is your guy!”

“I've had my two pups for almost seven years, and this is the first time I can genuinely say I've found someone so trustworthy and caring to watch them. Finding Barbara has been such a relief—she is an absolute treasure of a person. I always worry about leaving my dogs, but her incredible communication and all the photos completely put my mind at ease. I can tell that Barbara really really cares about and enjoys dogs. Truly. Thank you so much, Barbara. You went above and beyond, and it was so lovely meeting you. We will be using your services for as long as you're available! :) Summer and Camp miss you already!”

“Jewel was great with my senior pup, Missy! She even found some creative ways to get her to eat, which I’m still doing because it worked so well. Jewel truly cared and I can’t recommend her enough! I was so nervous to leave Missy behind with someone other than family, but she was great and provided updates while I was away.”

“Melondy was extremely communicative and thoughtful during her stay with Layla. She made sure she came over right on time, sent me regular updates on how Layla was doing and followed the pet care instructions to the letter. Additionally she was respectful of our space and left the house spotless! I would absolutely book again!”

Sydney is the absolute best! She’s responsible, communicative, and both of our animals loved her! She stayed with our cat and dog for a week, and she took fantastic care of them. She respected our request to not leave our dog in a crate longer than 3-4 hours, and she made sure to give them both all the attention, playtime and snuggles they require, sending lots of pics and updates throughout our vacation. Highly recommend and will be booking with Sydney again!

Carol was a lifesaver! Having her take care of my two dogs -one whom is a senior girl - allowed me to truly enjoy my vacation without worry about them. This was the first time I had left my senior dog with someone for longer than a weekend, and Carol made the experience completely stress-free. She checked in regularly with photos, was always responsive, and took fantastic care of my old lady. Of course, she also spoiled my other girl with plenty of love and attention! Carol is professional, reliable, and communicative, and she took great care of my home as well. She even had to deal with construction in my backyard while I was away, and it didn't faze her one bit. I highly recommend Carol and will absolutely trust her watch my two babies again!!
We truly can't say enough wonderful things about our Kim. She stays in our home and takes such loving care of our two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels—they're always so happy, relaxed, and clearly adored when we get home. She also treats our home with the same care and respect, and we always return to everything just as we left it. Knowing our dogs and home are in such caring, trustworthy hands gives us complete peace of mind every time we travel. We appreciate her more than words can say and feel so lucky to have found her. We recommend her without hesitation!

Sara was great taking care of our dood over the 4th of July. Due to it being a difficult time to find sitters we actually had 3 separate sitters in a row and Sara was right in the middle. Changed sheets and helped prepare for another sitter after her. So appreciative of this!!

Daniela was wonderful with our pets! We felt very comfortable and our dogs loved her from the beginning. She was able to give them medications, stay at our house, and gave them plenty of supervised time outside. Everything was in great condition upon our return. I highly recommend her for your pets needs!
We had such a wonderful experience and couldn’t recommend her more highly! She took amazing care of our dogs and truly went above and beyond during her stay. We came home to happy pups and a clean home! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands. We will absolutely book with her again!!

Stephanie is the best! She has watched our crew of four cats twice now and every time delivers care that is above and beyond. She is super communicative and sends a lot of photos! All of the cats were very happy and well cared for including one of our cats who has a URI that requires a few medications. Will definitely work with Stephanie again!!!

Bella is the best! She stayed with our pup, Marlo, for an extended weekend over the 4th and he had THE best time! Not only is she quick to respond, but she goes above and beyond by getting your pup out and about on trails, parks, and numerous walks. Marlo can be a bit skittish at times, but is filled with energy- taking him in public can be a bit nerve wracking, but Bella was able to help him get out of his shell to enjoy these new adventures. While she was here, she kept up with Marlo’s puppy training skills, loved on him lots, and bonus- left our home spotless. We couldn’t be more grateful and will absolutely be rebooking!

Jessica was fantastic with Riley during a week-long trip while I was away. This was our first time working together, and I was impressed by how quickly Riley warmed up to her by the second day since she typically takes 3–4 days to get comfortable with someone new. Jessica sent daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation and attend wedding festivities without worrying about Riley. She also went above and beyond in several thoughtful ways, including checking the mail, offering to take the trash out for pickup day without being asked, and taking extra care of Riley during the 4th of July fireworks when she was feeling anxious. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and would absolutely book Jessica again. Highly recommend!

Ludo looked after our sheepdog & cat for a week stay and did an excellent job. He was great with the animals, gave them plenty of attention and they were clearly happy & provided lots of updates. Ludo was a great house guest, he left the house very tidy & was very helpful doing additional things like watering & taking the trash bins out. I thoroughly recommend him & looking forward to booking him again in the future! Thank you :)
