âKyle took exceptional care of our dogs, providing daily updates and adorable pictures that kept us connected while we were away. Weâre definitely planning to use his services again in the future!â

âCarmen took such good care of our dogs and we felt comfortable knowing they were in the care of a very sweet and loving person. She was so excited to see them when we dropped them off which made us feel good. She sent pictures of our dogs relaxing and getting along with her dog. She also was very diligent about giving Kikka her medicine and eye drops which is so important and very much appreciated. Thank you Carmen! We will reach out again with future needs!â

About: Howdy yall! My name is Brett and I live in Smithville (78957), just east of Austin. My house has a 1/2 acre fenced in yard and is great for extended stays. Iâve raised many breeds of dog, including helping the birthing process! Must be friendly with other dogs, as I have dogs who get along great with all manner of beasts. I work from home and literally have no social life in this small town. Point is, I am a home body that is always working on my home and sanctuary. Dogs here get constant attention, treats, and lots of yard time. I love taking long walks in the neighborhood with the dogs and itâs a great area for it! There are several areas for dogs to sleep and make themselves at home. Each room has a dog bed and the living room couch is owned by the dogs. I am currently kenneling one dog who has a leg injury, so Iâm patient with pups and know how to administer medications.
âGloria was wonderful and took amazing care of Oliver! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. He came home completely exhausted after playing with her and her kids - a sure sign he had a blast!â

âIrina was so great with my dog! She provided many updates and photos of how she was doing and kept me in the loop! My sweet girl seemed to have a great stay with Irina and her pup!â

âWent for a little away time with my lady and Brianna came thru on like 2 hours of notice within blinking an eye. We dropped Pazzo off and after meeting her i was a lot more at ease in knowing that my dog would be in safe hands. Then she send a couple of photos on day 2 and informed me that Topaz was doing fantastic. We returned the following day and i saw that she wanted to confirm the drop off time because she had an errand to run in the late afternoon.. very punctual, affordable and accommodating and if we find ourselves in a similar situation going forward, we will be barking up Brianna tree. Lame pun intended!!! Thanks againâ

âJennifer took amazing care of my dogs while I was away. She kept me updated on how they were doing and sent pictures of them. Would have her watch them again and I definitely recommend her.â

âKayla and her family took great care of Chief. Her lab pup became fast friends with mine and so I knew he was getting lots of play time in. She is trustworthy and cares deeply. Plus her cast experience with pets put me at ease. Thanks for watching my baby while I was away - would absolutely visit again!â

About: Iâve taken care of animals since the age of sixteen. Family members and friends have trusted me in taking care of their fur babies when needed. I work full-time during the week, but my weekends are flexible for care Friday through Sunday. Iâm available if needed for pop inâs or walks during the week in the evenings. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs that would love to play. Also, if you prefer to keep your fur baby crated I can do that for you.

âNorman was fantastic and Frankie had a great time! Lots of pictures which was really appreciated. he kindly offers pick up and drop off services which made the process so much easier. i really canât say enough great things about Norm and i will definitely be asking him to watch Frankie when i need it!â

âJennifer was great, she was very responsive when we first reached out, during our dogs stay she provided daily updates and pictures. She was also flexible during drop off and pick up. We will use her again soon!â

âTina did a great job. My dog needs a lot of attention and hates to be alone. Tina and her dogs provided all that he needs, and he was really happy when I picked him up. Tina updated me every day on how he was doing, so I did not have to wonder. Overall, highly recommend!â

I have a fenced yard, 5 dogs, 3 cats, and I share a fence with chicken and sheep. Thereâs never a dull moment here and your petâs safety and well-being is always of utmost importance to me.
âAmanda and her husband loved my boy Elvis as if he was their own and he had a wonderful time playing with their dog for the weekend while I was away. I always hate leaving my pets when I travel but knowing he was in such a loving environment took away so much worry. Iâll definitely be having them watch Elvis again. Highly recommend!â
