“We had a last minute change of plans for an event and needed a dog sitter to drop in for us. Thanh was available, responded very quickly, was very communicative of any questions or how the dogs did, and played very well with them. We definitely will be using her for as long as she is available!”
“Cecilia did an amazing job. She was on-time, followed the directions we left and gave extra snuggles to my fur babies. She will be our go to person moving forward. I appreciated her ability to wiggle the schedule and be flexible with my changing plans.”
“Great pet sitter that your pets will love! Repeat client, love how responsive and kind Sara is and how she takes such wonderful care of our cats and home. Will keep using Sara over and over.”
“Rebekah took really good care of my puppies while we were away for an extended trip. They were happy and healthy when we returned. She kept the food bowls clean and water bowl clean and filled. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. I am a dog mom of 3 and ready to share the love. I house trained my pups and taught them fun tricks. I even make them special treats because they deserve the best. I work full-time M-F however I have access to my home throughout the day, every 2 hours and I am available on the weekends. I also have a significant other that will be around to assist with care when needed. Your fur baby will be in great hands with us. My pets are my children, I care for them with love always. I will provide that same care for your fur baby as well. I have a large yard for your fur babies to do zoomies. I take my dogs to the dog park biweekly and I’d be more than happy to have your pups join. Any instructions or special situations you request for your fur baby will always be followed and never judged or neglected. We are an animal loving home and will treat your fur babies as if they are our own when they are with us.
“Jessica is the sweetest and most responsible young person I have ever met. I would adopt her if I could. Ms. Jessica is very professional, polite and oh so responsible. My Cookie is not friendly to most people, but Jessica made her so comfortable and treated her like her own. I have never had such a relaxing vacation as I have this time. Jessica is beautiful inside and out, and such a delightful young lady!!”
About: I grew up with dogs and many different types of animals around the house. Aunts, cousins, neighbors, friends, have relied on me to care for their little animals. Includes feeding, bathing, overnight stay, keeping up with their routine etc. I’m currently working a part time job so I will be more than available to care for your puppies and play with them as much as it’s needed. I have three small dogs, a fenced house and a lot of space for them to run around and play. I have crates at home large and medium sized.
“We love Jackie! We always trust her to take care of our two cats. Always super responsive and professional, and on time too. :) 10/10 stars!!!!”
“Tory is a great pet sitter. She has very good communication and even moves my packages inside the house for me as I was out of town for the holidays. I highly recommend!”
“I had a last minute trip for work and I am so grateful I found Crystal. This was my first time leaving my dogs and I wasn’t sure how they would react. It didn’t take them long to warm up to Crystal — very pleased! She took great care of my fur babies and kept me posted with each visit. Rover is a great app and I highly recommend Crystal!”
“Nichole was amazing and I felt totally at ease knowing my babies were well taken care of. She checked in at each visit and let me know they were eating, using the bathroom, meds taken, etc and sent pictures. I’ll definitely ask for Nichole whenever I’m out of town.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life — from my own two dogs and cat to my mom’s three dogs, and even my mother-in-law’s pets (two dogs, a cat, a lizard, and a small garden of chickens I help watch every summer!). Neighbors and friends have trusted me for years to walk, feed, and care for their pets when they’re busy or traveling. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to senior dogs, and I make sure every animal feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I am a second-year teaching student with online classes. I have open availability and can be very flexible to make it work. Pretty much 24/7 😉 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine, keep walks safe and on-leash, double-check doors and gates, and give plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I send regular photo updates so you can feel confident they’re happy and cared for. At my home, pets enjoy a large, fully fenced backyard divided into two areas — one for play and potty breaks, and another with a big pool where dogs are welcome to swim if they enjoy the water. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, entertained, and loved whether they’re with me or in their own home.
“Rosa is now Aunt Rosa! My cats Lucy and Bubba Lee lover her and run to the door or window when they hear her car. She is assisting me after I had an injury and has been indispensable! She comes twice a week and my cats get so excited when they see her and want immediate attention. She plays with them and gives them treats...they know our routine and look forward to it. Rosa is so personable and has become like family. I wanted to address the flea issue. Rosa is at my house a minimum of twice a week sometimes more and I have never had flea issues. If she had them at home, she would have brought them to my house. I cannot say enough nice things and highly recommend Rosa.”
About: Although we do not have a dog (or any pets) of our own right more, I had dogs my whole life, so I have always cared for and loved dogs. We have a young family with two little kids who both love dogs, and are pretty gentle with them as well! We would love to care for, host, and play with your dogs while you are unable to. I am a stay-at-home mom, so we are home most of the day (and never gone for very long). We will send you daily updates, and make sure your dog feels right at home. We can offer a clean home with a fenced backyard, plenty of space, and a loving temporary family. We are in the Summerwood neighborhood, and we take the kids on walks/ to the park almost every day so we can easily bring a dog along with us! Don't hesitate to reach out with questions! I am a stay-at-home mother, so we are almost always home, and never gone for long periods of time. I take the kids on a walk almost every day, so it is no problem for a dog to come along! I have a fenced yard, as well as a guest room that is empty and a great place for a crate and/or food and water. We have a doggy door to the backyard as well.
About: I have loved working with/taking care of animals since I was very young. Because of my love and passion for animal care I am now majoring in Pre Veterinary medicine. I have experience with small and large animals. I have also taken care of a few litters on my own. I enjoy what I do not just because of my love for animals but because I have a passion for the wellbeing of any animal. I am here to help and provide your pet with love!! And I also am open to any special requests!! I accept cats too! During summer break, I am always available and I offer all kinds of services! I am currently a full time student at TAMUK, I have classes 5 days out of the week. Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays are my busiest days of the week but Thursdays, Fridays and on the weekend I am free!! A four day weekend works perfect for me! I currently live in an Apartment that is mostly suited for smaller pets but I’ve taken care of english bulldogs at my place and there was no trouble! If your pet needs to be put in a crate, I also have enough space for that. I have a dog park near my place so your pet will have plenty of room to roam around in, if necessary, and I also take long walks everyday.
“sydney was great, will definitely be having her babysit again”
About: I’ve been relied on to take care of any dogs since I was 13 , I’ve always loved to play and connect with any dog I’ve met and give them the love and care they deserve! I currently work a part time job and the days I work do vary , but I can always fit your pups into my weekly routine to play , feed , walk or provide any care they might need. I will always ensure your pups are well taken care of and I want them to feel comfortable and calm even when their parents(you) aren’t around.

Book her if you want your pets to be loved and well cared for!”

Valerie H.
“Valerie is a close friend of mine since we’ve been in middle school together and growing up sometimes me and my family would take roadtrips out of town over the weekend and we wouldn’t take our dog Larry with us and there were several times where she was more than happy to help and take care of our dog while we were gone for a day or two. She’s always been very sweet with dogs and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a dog that doesn’t love her. Would definitely say she is a responsible and loving pet caregiver without a doubt.”
