“Sondra was fantastic, professional, prepared, and right on time for our drop in visit to meet our dog. She asked thoughtful questions I hadn’t even considered, which really highlighted her experience and genuine care for animals. It gave me great peace of mind knowing Elu will be in such capable hands during the upcoming overnight stay.”

“I had a lot of nerve to use this service because for my canelo he is like my baby and he has a precise and careful routine. but since my interview with mary I knew that he was the right one and it was the best success, the best decision, if you are one of the humans who take care of and treat your furry like the kings of the house mary is undoubtedly the indicated. I respect his food schedules, I share with canelo lowering his anxiety levels with strategic walks and he always kept an eye on his care specials like changing diapers. I am very happy with the professionalism of your services. thank you mary, professionals like you give a lot of credit to this application.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14. I love all animals and have experience with all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have 5 dogs at home so I’m used to chaos! I also started working with farm animals when I was 12 so I have experience working with horses, cows, pigs, chickens, and ect. I currently work only two days at my church, so I have plenty of time to play with all the dogs and cats! I will make sure to communicate with you when those times are and if I leave during the day. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run around in. All of my dogs are crate-trained, and they go up at night. During the day I leave them outside or they lounge around inside. All my dogs are allowed on the furniture.

About: I’ve always had an abundance of dogs and cats all throughout my life. I’ve always had large breed dogs, but I am no stranger to small breeds as well! I’ve had puppies and senior dogs, so I have experience kind of all across the board. I have four kittens that I raised and bottle fed, as well as senior cats. I have been pet sitting for family and friends since I was 13. I also have experience as a veterinary technician! I am comfortable administering medication if your pet needs it. I will love your pets like they’re my own, and I am very accommodating to your schedule! I am also open to horse care as well! I do not have horses of my own, but I have a few clients that I feed for, so equine care could be discussed if needed 😊 I am starting nursing school in August, but until then I am completely free to take care of your pets. Once I start school, my schedule will change slightly, but I will still be available! I, unfortunately, cannot offer boarding, but I am more than happy to offer house sitting, overnight care, and drop in visits during the day as needed. Whatever your pet needs, I am willing to do it! I can stick to a strict feeding and medication schedule if needed. I will play with your pets, or just have a lazy day if couch potato is more their style! If your pets go out at certain times, get crated, or have to be separated for feeding, I can do it. If your pet is a bit skittish with new people, I will take the time to have them get comfortable with me and avoid stressing them out in an already stressful situation. They will be in great hands 🩷
About: I grew up with dogs of all different sizes and breeds along with the sweetest cats. I showered them all with love and affection as well as playing and walking the dogs. I am available all day and every day! I can take care of your little or big fur babies anytime and provide the attention and care needed! I have a fenced yard with four dogs that love to run around and play in. They love to chase each other around and are quite talkative to one another!

About: I know how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, that’s why I prioritize safety, communication, and routine. I provide clear updates, quick responses, and dependable care every time. I’m comfortable with different energy levels and personalities, and I take the time to understand each dog individually. My focus is creating a calm, positive experience so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Part-time healthcare worker, available weekdays and some weekends! Willing to do drop ins, walks when available, and potentially overnight care. I am structured but flexible, and I only take a limited number of pets at a time to provide focused care. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I stick closely to their routine to minimize stress and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Whether that’s structured walks for a high energy dog or quiet company for a shy cat, I adjust to what they need. Cleanliness, safety, and clear communication are always a priority to me
About: I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, and kids…children, not goats. lol But I imagine taking care of a baby goat would be fun though! I am organized, compassionate, and proactive. I’m trying to go back to work now that my kids are grown and less dependent on me. I currently have a 14 year old who I still care for who doesn’t need as much of my time and attention. I would love to give that to your pet. I have a large home with a mudroom that can be utilized for a pet only zone. I have a large backyard. My two older kids are dog enthusiasts. My youngest is a cat person.

I have two Mini Aussies that love friends. I have a fenced yard and also a 5 mile trail to go on walks. I can crate your pup or let them roam. We are very easy going over here!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats growing up. I’ve had four dogs at the same time and I have always had a cat growing up. I love taking care of cats and playing with them. I think animals deserve love and affection and care. I’ve taken care of young animals and I’ve also taken care of senior animals. I currently have two cats who are 13 years old and 3 years old. I currently work full time, so weekends would be best or after work. Fridays I work from home so I’m fully flexible. Overnights stays would have to be weekends unless it’s close to my work then it’s possible for longer stays I have a home that my cats can roam around and everything is pet friendly. They don’t get into anything that is harmful for them
About: I got my first dog 5 years ago and have cared for and enjoyed him ever since. My family has also raised doodle puppies out of our home for a few years now. I've been woken up in the middle of the night, cleaned up messes, searched for dogs that ran away and been on countless dog walks. I love dogs but we've also had cats, bunnies and turtles. I promise you, your pets will love hanging out with me while you are on a trip or at work! I am currently living in Texas with my family until August when I return to school. My schedule is very open, I'm not working currently and I'll do my best to help you out! I can walk your dog as often as you need or run them until all their puppy energy is used up! I'll do what it takes to make sure your buddy is safe and happy!
