“Lindsey was amazing! She helped us out with a last minute trip and was very communicative. She sent lots of pictures of my babies and they seemed to love the attention. Would absolutely recommend her!”


“Will was very attentive to Penny. Checked in on her, fed her at same time everyday and stayed overnight with her. When I came back on Sunday, she was very content, and not stressed at all. I will use Will again.”

“Sarah was punctual, communicative, and so sweet with my dog. I appreciated her short turnaround response and hope to use her again soon for my frequent work trips. Highly recommended! Thank you!”

About: I took care of my dog, Luna, since the first day she was born because her mom didn’t want her. I’d wake up every 2 hours to make sure she ate while she was little because I didn’t want anything to happen to her. Now she’s 4 years old running around with her parents and siblings. I have a cat, she recently turned one. I take her everywhere with me, she loves car rides now. At home I have dogs who I’d always look forward going to play with after work. Pets have been a part of my life for a while now and I enjoy it. When it comes to dogs, puppies, I know that most of the time all they want to do is play and I’m okay with that. I think it’s an important part of their life to keep them healthy and happy.I know some pets don’t like being alone and it’s makes me sad to see pets waiting by the door for their owners to show up. So I look forward to being with them whether it’s playing with them or just keeping them company while you’re out working or running errands.

“This was my first time ever having someone outside of family watch my dogs. I asked a few people if they were okay with meeting me prior to me booking. A few didn’t want to. Ms: Dora met with me twice. Once to see if it’s a good fit and the second just to go over other details. Both times all the dogs were excited and comfortable around her. She took the best care of them and i love the updates we got. She even sent my active duty son a few videos of his baby we have. I am so truly grateful for this! If anyone is considering booking I honestly say I will be rebooking with Ms, Dora! Thank you so much for the love and care of my fur babies and for caring for my home as if it was your own! I can’t express how grateful we are for your love to Rocky’s Kora and Layla.”


“Where do I start with how great she is! Meg came over for a meet and greet to ensure Nala, my cat, got to meet her ahead of time. I was honestly shocked because my skittish girl who typically doesn’t approach strangers went right up to her with no hesitation. Meg took detailed notes and even asked about household things she could do while I was gone (e.g., asking what days the garbage man came, etc.). Most importantly, my cat has a heart condition and takes three medications. I’m always worried when I leave since she’s not the easiest cat to get meds in. But not for Meg, she said she had no issues getting Nala to take her medications. I’m so thankful for Meg and can’t say enough great things about her. Nala clearly trusted her and so do I!”

“Kadence is an amazing sitter! I have four adorable fur babies, and they can be quite challenging, but Kadence handled everything with ease. I can't wait to book her again for our pet care needs she's simply the best!”

“Laurie did great with our three dogs. She also cleaned our house after a very rainy week while we were gone. I would recommend her to others for both house and pet sitting.”

“She went above and beyond. Was great at communicating and sent lots of pictures for peace of mind. You can tell she truly loves animals!!! We will be using her again”

“Leah is an absolute gem! From start to finish, her communication was top-notch—we felt completely at ease the entire time we were away in Puerto Rico. We didn’t worry for a second, knowing our dogs were in such loving and capable hands. Whiskey and Rye adore her (which says everything), and to top it all off, we came home to a house that was somehow cleaner than we left it! Leah went above and beyond in every way, and we’ll 100% be booking her again. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Sonia was so kind to take a last minute booking for a family emergency. She came for a meet and greet and asked great questions to make sure she was prepared. She was communicative and sent pictures throughout the stay, and followed through the schedule we had discussed. She definitely seems like a dog whisperer, when she came to bring the key back, my dog stood at the door watching her! I would absolutely welcome her back to house/dog sit.”

“Always great to have Matthew watching our three dogs. He is in unfailingly reliable and attentive and they could not be in better hands. In addition, while watching the house he detected and saved us from a potentially disastrous water leak. Just great knowing Matthew is on the job.”
“Alina stayed with our dog and two cats for five nights, and they seem so relaxed and happy when we got home. They clearly loved her! She took great care of everything and sent tons of pictures all week. Highly recommend!”


“We have had multiple sitters and Reily is truly the best. She is professional, thoughtful, communicates, and is respectful of our space and home. She will be our go-to from now on!”

“Jean-Paul was an excellent sitter for our two English Bulldogs. He provided lots of pictures and updates, which was great! He’s gone above and beyond to make sure our dogs are loved and cared for while we’re away.”

About: I've experienced the magic of pets since I was young. My parents' house includes a Shih Tzu, Labrador, and a mixed cat! They behave different but have tons of love that they give us. We love our pets, and I know you love yours, too. I've cared for pets of a variety of ages and sizes. I update clients every day / walk that their pet is in my care. If you need a scheduled sitter in advance or a last minute sitter, just ask! Let's work together. First-time clients get 10% off for the first appointment. I'm responsible and trustworthy. I hold a master's degree and work full-time, but can step away during lunch breaks to feed pets and can go after 5pm. I also love giving daily updates on your pet while you are away! For house sitting, I leave your home the way I find it. I appreciate a clean space in my own home, and I take pride in respecting your home. I enjoy jogging / hiking. I regularly walk my parents' Labrador when I am home; thus, taking your fur baby on a walk is not a challenge for me. I walk often, and will be sure to keep your pets safe! I am aware of snakes and other predators lurking in San Antonio's trails and have training in snake bite care. I haven't had to use it, yet, but it is good info to know! I can walk your dog anytime after 5pm, Mondays - Fridays. I am usually flexible with my time on weekends if given advanced notice. I do not walk pets in extreme heat (outside temperature of 90 or more, unless there is ample shade in your neighborhood), as I prioritize their safety/wellness and do not want to burn their paws.
“Wonderful! Very attentive to my poodles. Helped to address a food issue when one of mine went on a hunger strike. Very respectful of my home. She stayed for 3 days and 2 nites. Great communication! Love her!!”


About: I’ve been responsible for taking care of animals since I was a child living on my family ranch. I have 15 years of personal experience as a pet owner and caring for dogs of friends and family. I currently work from home full time and I am able to provide continuous care throughout the day and night. I am able to provide walks and potty breaks as frequently as needed. I am a very strong believer in using a leash at all times when there are other dogs and animals present, not only for their safety, but for the safety of the animal I am responsible for as well. I currently do not have other dogs or cats in my home that might create problems in the environment.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Shavano Forest is $40

We had the pleasure of having Sam house sit and take care of our Chihuahua dog, Mini while we traveled abroad for 2 weeks. Stellar service as always from Sam, thanks for all the pictures and check ins with us, it really gives us a peace of mind knowing that our home and dog are in great care. You always go above and beyond and we appreciate you for that! Keep up the amazing work!

Miranda did an amazing job looking after our cat and house sitting. We were out of the country for a week and Miranda sent us daily updates and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed that our little baby was well looked after. I will definitely be requesting Miranda's services again!

Wow, what a gift Sonia is. From the start, communication was excellent, and it was clear that my dog was in caring and capable hands. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me peace of mind while we I was away. It was also very special that she appreciated and noticed the same little things about my dog that I do, a sign that she was being present and loving towards my little one. So happy to have found her. Thank you Sonia!!
Dorothy was absolutely amazing with both of our boys! We had a meet and greet before she house sat for us and the boys instantly loved her. While we were away, she followed all of our rules, especially with giving Odie his daily medication twice a day. She sent us constant pictures of the boys while we were away, and there was never a moment where she was not playing with them and keeping them entertained. Dorothy was an amazing sitter, and we will be more than happy to have her watch over our boys again. Thank you Dorothy!!
