“Emoni is an awesome pet sitter. She took excellent care of our two dogs and cat. She was very responsible, responsive and accommodating. We already booked her for Thanksgiving and the dogs are looking forward to their buddy coming back to play.”

“Kallie was AMAZING!!!! She constantly sent pics and if my dogs lay on and around her, she’s a keeper! It’s always so hard to find that person to trust with your dogs and your home, but we found “that person” with Kallie!”

About: I love animals! I have an almost 4 year old goldendoodle that is the light of my life. I would love to treat your fur family like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I'm able to stick closely to their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and potty schedules while ensuring they aren't left alone for long periods. Because of my flexible schedule, I can give pets regular exercise, lots of affection, and consistent care throughout the day and evening. Whether it's a midday walk, play session, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I follow all feeding, walking, playtime, and medication instructions carefully and make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on their individual needs. I treat every pet like family and every home with respect. I keep pet areas clean, ensure fresh water is always available, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. My goal is to help pets feel happy and secure in their own environment and to make the experience as seamless as possible for both pets and their owners.
“Victoria exceeded all expectations! I have 2 cats (15 & 6) that both required different levels of care and Victoria was able to handle both of them. She was very thorough in her prep and we had a video consult to go over all expectations, requests, questions, etc. She was detailed and asked questions I hadn’t even thought to cover. During the pet sitting, she kept me updated at all time and provided pictures to let me know the girls were doing okay. My 15 year old cat requires multiple medications that can sometimes be difficult to administer and she was able to administer with no issues. Nothing about this was a negative experience and I would recommend her to anyone!! I will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”

“McKaylee thank you so much for the great care you gave our sweet Amaretto. It was the first time leaving our pup since losing her sibling. McKaylee gave us the comfort we needed by sending us pictures often and staying at the house with Amaretto. We will definitely use her again soon! ♥️♥️♥️”

“We once again had an amazing vacation not neesih to worry about the house or our beloved pets! Alexis goes over and beyond! And we have already booked another date!”

“Delishia is so so incredible and caring. She stayed at my house and provided care for my two dogs, one of which was extremely fearful of strangers. She was patient with him, and got him to open up to her by the end of our trip. I HIGHLY recommend her if you are going on a trip and have any pets that need taking care of. She goes above and beyond, while I was out of town, a board in my fence broke and she went to the store to repair it without being asked. So so so incredible I hope you choose her if able!!”

“Michelle was great with my girls! They seemed to really like her. Next day they kept going into the guest room she slept in, looking for her. She left the house how we left it! My girls were well taken care of, we got pictures throughout. Thanks Michelle for watching our girls!”

“Sierra was so great with our two bullys! We have some high energy boys and they loved her! She was very communicative and sent us pics of them while we were gone. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again. ?”

About: Hello, I’m Matthew, based in the San Antonio area with prior experience owning and caring for a husky. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, patience, and clear communication when it comes to pets. I currently offer evening and weekend availability for: * Dog walking * Drop-in visits * Weekend sitting * Overnight care Because I work full-time during the day, I’m best suited for dogs that are comfortable being alone during normal work hours. At this time, I’m unable to provide constant care or all-day supervision services. As a former husky owner, I’m familiar with: * High-energy breeds * Long walks and exercise needs * Leash handling * Feeding routines * Basic grooming and care * Maintaining calm and consistent routines I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and respectful of both pets and owners’ homes. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you can feel comfortable while away. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I prefer to schedule a meet & greet before new bookings whenever possible. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care fits naturally into my routine outside of my full-time job. I’m available for evening walks and drop-in visits during the week, and more flexible availability on weekends for overnight care or extended visits. I maintain a structured and reliable routine, which helps me provide consistent care, exercise, feeding, potty breaks, and attention for pets. Because I work during standard daytime hours, I’m best suited for dogs that are comfortable being alone for part of the day and do not require constant care. I enjoy staying active and understand the importance of keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged, especially high energy breeds like huskies. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, routines, house rules, and preferred care methods. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel comfortable while away. Safety is very important to me, especially during walks and outdoor time. I pay close attention to leash security, surroundings, and each dog’s comfort level and behavior. As a former husky owner, I understand the importance of exercise, structure, and attentiveness with high energy breeds. I treat every client’s home respectfully and professionally, keeping things clean and secure during visits or overnight stays. At this time, I primarily offer care in clients’ homes, along with walks and drop in visits, based on my work schedule and availability.
