About: Hi, I'm Paige! I've been a passionate animal lover and pet owner my entire life. Whether your furry friend needs a long, energetic walk, drop-in visits, or day care, I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and safety-first mindset as if they were my own. I have 10 years of experience caring for pups with many different temperaments and needs! I am currently getting masters degree, but I have a lot of free time to love and spend time with your pups! I am available M-F and some weekends (I am flexible). I am dedicated to giving your pet the time and care they need during drop-ins, walks, or care at your home! Respect is an important thing. I have 10 years experience working within clients homes, with children, and with animals. Your home and pet will be in safe hands.
“We were very nervous leaving our boy with anyone for a long period of time, but after the first day and the daily updates, we felt totally at ease. She is very thorough with your pet’s needs.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all needs, including raising and rescuing a three-legged dog, which taught me patience and how to handle disabilities and medical care. I’m comfortable with routines and medications and always prioritize a dog’s comfort and safety. I’ve pet sat many times, often while babysitting, so I’m reliable and responsible. I’m also experienced with puppies, currently raising a French Bulldog and an Australian Shepherd, and I bring patience, attention, and genuine love to every dog I care for. Pet care fits well into my routine. Monday–Thursday I babysit from 8–3, so I’m available early mornings, afternoons, evenings, and late nights. I can do drop-ins, walks, or feedings around that schedule and stay consistent. On weekends, I’m fully available at any time of day, which allows me to provide more flexible care, including longer visits or overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I care for pets in their own home to keep them comfortable and stress-free in a familiar environment. I closely follow their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, and any specific instructions you provide. My goal is to maintain a clean, organized space while also making sure your pet has plenty of fun, exercise, and attention. I’m experienced with puppies, high-energy dogs, seniors, and dogs with medical needs, and I can administer medications if needed. I always respect your home and leave it just as clean as I found it.
“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.”
“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 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.
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 their is ample shade in your neighborhood), as I prioritize their safety/wellness and do not want to burn their paws.
About: Hello there! I am a bonafide animal lover. I grew up with cats and dogs ranging from kittens and puppies to senior cats and large breed dogs. This isn’t about making money for me but spending time doing what I love. I always place my pets in the best care when I’m out of town and I can be that for you and your pets. I won’t just check on your pets but bond with them and create a relationship with them. I will communicate with you every time I pet sit your pet and be sure to pay close attention to any unusual behavior to make sure they aren’t becoming ill or have become injured. I am a very attention to detail type person and will be sure to follow any instructions you leave. Monday through Friday anytime after 5pm works best for me, but I’m super flexible Saturday and Sundays and even Holidays. I can come on a regular basis/weekly also. I’m an avid walker and would love the company of walking dogs! So whether that’s around your neighborhood or with your permission to take a them to a park I’m all for it! I’m also more than happy to take care of dogs and cats at your home.
“Denise went above and beyond for us! We had a family emergency and she was able to change our booking to arrive a day early to help us. Both the dog and the house were in great shape when we returned!”
“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!”

I’m truly grateful that Rebeca was available to take care of my Hunter and watch the house while I was gone. She did a wonderful job of keeping on a daily basis. She also left the house in tiptop condition. It was so nice to come home to a clean house that looks like it did when I left I would not hesitate to use her again.
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!!
Victoria did a wonderful job sitting for my dogs and cats. I know it's a lot of work with multiple pets, especially with my oldest dog, Charlie, who takes multiple medications. Victoria followed all instructions and kept me updated with pictures and messages while I was gone. I appreciated not having to worry while I was out of town.
We had an unexpected situation come up right as we were leaving for Puerto Rico, and our original sitter canceled last minute. Thankfully, this amazing couple stepped in on very short notice and completely saved the trip for us. From day one, they were incredibly reliable, communicative, and caring. They made sure our dog was comfortable, stuck to his routine, and handled his medication perfectly. We got regular updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while being away. You can tell they genuinely care about the pets they look after, and that meant everything to us. We came back to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive sitters—we’ll definitely be booking with them again!
Abby did a great job with our pets on a short notice request for watching our pets. She was very respectful and helpful during her visit. She was very helpful and responsive to any questions I had, kept me informed the entire time we were gone. I can’t imagine a better person for the job.
Alexander took excellent care of our babies and home! Great communication and pics, letting us enjoy the evening knowing all was good at home. We’ve also booked him for a special, long awaited, vacation and we couldn’t be happier that he’ll be watching them!! Thanks’
15/10, will book again! Amanda was truly one of the most top-notch sitters with whcih we've had the pleasure of working. She was friendly and incredibly thorough in taking information and preparing for every instance. Our Mojo man is a bit of a shy boy and he took to her very well on the first meeting. He seemed relaxed and happy when we came home and exhibited less than normal clinginess to us in the days that followed our return. We are so grateful not only for her care of our boy, but for her consideration of our home. Couldn't even tell she had been there. Thank you and we look forward to booking again!
