About: I'm a lifelong cat and dog owner, and love meeting new furry friends! As a sitter, my goal is to keep your pets as safe and comfortable as possible. I have experience with elderly and special needs dogs, as well as puppies and high energy dogs. While you’re away, I’ll make sure your pets get playtime and exercise. I’m great with shy cats and anxious pups. I'm a freelance writer, which means I am able to make my own schedule! My unique schedule allows me to work with pets and their owners' time needs. I am not currently offering in home stays at my home but I’ll look after your pets as though they were my own. I always check for hazards before I leave, including trash, open doors etc. During inclement weather, I make sure pets are well-taken care of and calm.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life...and my soul! I'm passionate about giving them the best lives possible. I have experience with many different breeds (mostly the beloved mixed breed) through all life stages. I've potty trained both puppies and grown dogs. I significant experience with seniors and navigating their special needs - from mobility assistance to incontinence care. I can't wait to meet your pup! I am currently in between jobs so I have quite open availability for walks as well as boarding. I have plenty of time to take pups out regularly if boarding, so no one has to hold it! I have a spacious open-floor-plan home that's good for play-time. I have 3 dogs of my own. One is senior and keeps to herself. The other two are mixed breed and always up for play! I also have two cats that are very accustomed to being around all kinds of visitors - human and animal alike. My yard is substantial and conducive to running and zoomies. It is enclosed with a safety fence, and I only have neighbors on either side (the back is against a greenway).

Patricia L.
“Patricia is a caring and very responsible person. I work every day and worried about leaving Biscuit with a stranger. Patricia has become part of our support network. She loves Biscuit and is very communicative about things that happened during the walk, and provides observations about Biscuit's energy level or activities. She is 100% reliable - which matters greatly! And Biscuit loves her. I couldn't ask for a more caring dog walker!”

Courtney R.Star Sitter
“Harley, our jack russel terrier, almost always travels with our family. We were recently unable to take him with us and did not want to drop him off at a kennel. We hired Courtney to watch Harley for two nights. Since Courtney, her family and their 2 dogs are friends I know she has good experience, is conscientious and reliable with animals. Harley even had ‘just-in-case it stormed’ and ‘finicky eater’ instructions. Courtney gave 5-star service !! SR”
Christina S.
“Christina is truly incredible. She watches all three of our dogs in her home, and we couldn’t ask for a better person to care for them. Each time we drop them off, they run to her door with tails wagging. It’s clear how much they love her. She’s warm, attentive, and genuinely treats them like her own. We always come home to happy, relaxed pups, and we’re able to travel with complete peace of mind knowing they’re safe and loved. We’re so lucky to have found her!”

Sydney B.
“I’ve known sydney since before I hit puberty. Through thick and thin, Sydney was always there being the caring and kind person she’s always been. When she first got her pet dog, I knew that she would be in good hands. From cuddling to walking to playing to eating dinner together, Sydney’s interaction with her own pet reflects how she is with every, and I mean, EVERY dog she sees in the street. She’s so good with animals and so so caring. I can’t wait to see her be a mother because of how good of a human she is. Sydney is patient, fun, and amazing with both people and animal interactions”

Sophie was prompt with her responses and walked my dog when she said she would! She also helped feed my dog when asked to ☺️
Andria was a life saver! I was out of town and my husband‘s back issues prevented him from taking Poppy on her regular walks. Andria came to the rescue. She was even able to come a little earlier than we booked to avoid the heat. We highly recommend, and will not hesitate to call Andria again!
Faith was amazing! Super professional, dependable, and great at communicating. I’m looking forward to cooking again.
Very informative and prompt! Very glad she was helpful and left plenty of information about the trip! Very nice and went above and beyond
Julie is awesome! We had a last minute trip to San Antonio for an event that would have us gone for most of the day. We used Julie to take our dogs out for a walk midway through. She did a quick meet and greet with our two French bulldogs prior. She handled our very energetic 10-month old puppies very well for their walk, spent a little play time with them, and even sent pictures to update. Highly recommend her!
