Jessica always takes good care of my boys Bennie and Maxx. They are both on meds and she always makes sure they get their dose when needed. She is dependable and my boys look forward to her visits.

Amazing Dog Sitter! Makaehla was absolutely incredible while we were away. She stayed at our house and loved on Raven and Rasco like they were her own. We came home to happy pups and a spotless house, which says everything about how well she takes care of both pets and home. She went above and beyond, communicated perfectly, and gave us total peace of mind the entire time. We will definitely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!

Katelyn was fantastic with Archie. He enjoyed his walks and belly rubs. She was good about sending photos and keeping me up to date with what Archie was up to.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based in Granite Shoals near Marble Falls, and I’m happy to travel within an hour of the Austin area to care for your pup. I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly believe they’re family—not just pets. I currently share my home with Josie, my sweet 10-year-old Pug, and Bella, my energetic 2-year-old rescue Pit mix. Having dogs at very different life stages has given me experience with everything from senior care and slower-paced walks to playful energy and enrichment. Over the years, I’ve regularly helped friends care for their dogs—whether that meant walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company while their humans were away. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and genuinely loving toward every dog I meet. I live a healthy, active lifestyle and enjoy trail walks and neighborhood strolls, always tailoring activity levels to each dog’s needs, age, and personality. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your dog—feel free to reach out with any questions! My full time job is mostly remotely, which gives me the flexibility to plan my day around a pet’s needs. This allows me to provide regular walks, meals, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency. I follow each pet’s routine closely, ensure secure environments and safe walks, and treat both pets and homes with care and respect.

Nathan was absolutely wonderful as our house and dog sitter while we were away for Spring Break! From the start, he was communicative, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease leaving both our home and our dog in his care. He stayed in our home and treated it with great respect, everything was clean and just as we left it when we returned. Most importantly, our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly got plenty of attention and exercise while we were gone. Nathan kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind during our trip. We truly appreciated how attentive and responsible he was, and it made a big difference knowing everything at home was in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Nathan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would love to have him back again in the future!

About: I've been working as a dog groomer for the past two years, but had to pause that to focus on my health. I've volunteered walking dogs in animal shelters, and as a child mucked horse barns and brushed/washed horses in exchange for riding lessons. 😂 I've loved animals my entire life. I was raised in a family of 2-6 dogs (it increased frequently) and will admit only here that I loved them more than I loved my sister! I'm currently coming out of treatment and unemployed, so I have plenty of time to watch your furry friends! My only obligations are a weekly monday appointment and a biweekly friday appointment. I have a very nice, soft voice for any frightened pups, and am told I'm a bit of an animal whisperer. I will do my very best to connect with your animals and individualize my care in any way I can!

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was ten. I have always had both in my household. I have experience caring for puppies and older dogs alike, as well as kittens and adult cats. I’m currently working part-time to focus on my academics. I’m a full-time student at Texas A&M, but am eager to fit in work whenever I’m available! Though my schedule fluctuates throughout the year, I’m currently available everyday after 2pm. Tuesdays can vary, but I’m usually flexible! I’ve watched pets in client’s households over intermediate periods of time on numerous occasions. I am comfortable crating, walking, and feeding (including special dietary needs), as well as other household tasks such as collecting mail, basic housekeeping, and plant care.

About: I started as a little kid taking care of my family dogs.As I got older I watched my grandparents dogs over night.Now I have dog name Summer "Animals aren't just a job for me – they're my entire world! Every day is an adventure filled with wagging tails, purring companions, and the joy of understanding what makes our furry friends tick. My home is often buzzing with happy pets, and I truly believe that living alongside them teaches us so much. This daily immersion in the world of pets means I bring not just experience, but a deep, personal understanding and endless patience to every animal I care for." "When I'm caring for your pets in your home, their safety and well-being are my absolute top priorities. I'm meticulous about following your specific instructions, maintaining routines, and ensuring a secure and comfortable environment for your furry family members. You can trust me to treat your home with the utmost respect and to provide vigilant, loving care so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away."

Kylie was absolutely amazing with my dogs, and I can’t recommend her enough. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She surely made sure my dogs were happy and well cared for. It’s obvious that Kylie genuinely loves what she does. She was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive to my dogs’ needs, and they warmed up to her right away. My dogs were relaxed, happy, and clearly comfortable in her care - which says everything. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and truly great with dogs, Kylie is the one. I would absolutely trust her again without hesitation!

Reese was great!! She accepted last minute after another sitter cancelled and was able to do a call to talk about what we needed. She kept us posted during our trip and then even stepped in to assist with another trip. We appreciated her taking care of our pups with all their special needs. We’re already booked with her again this weekend. Thank you, Reese!

About: My family has owned hunting dogs for years, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I’ve helped with training, reinforcing good behavior, daily walks, exercise, feeding, and plenty of affection. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and safety when caring for pets. Whether your dog loves outdoor adventures or just wants extra cuddles and attention, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m available at almost any time, as I don’t start school until August! I can stay over night on most weekends, but just check with me to be sure! I have a portable crate that can take small-medium dogs or cats on adventures! I can do walks, clean up, playtime, sleepovers and lots of cuddles!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 9 and have taken care of my dog for over 11 years. My family is very busy and my mother has gotten older, so i’m usually the one that has to feed, walk, and bathe our dog. I’m a college student and working a part time job at Urban Outfitters in the domain, but I only work 15 hours a week and work mostly weekends so weekdays are easiest. However, I base my availability in my calendar off of my work schedule, so some weekends I can still provide pet service! Every home is different, so I will take of every dog with their routine that they are used to! I will make sure that the dog feels at ease in their own home and that the dog goes through the same motions that they normally would go through if their owner was with them <3

This was our first visit with Billy. I gave a long list of concerns about our 95lb coonhound and Huskypoo that likes to run away. He came back to walk the dogs later that night and walked into a mess that our pups had created. I'll spare the details, but Billy promptly contacted me that he had 3 dead chickens to clean up (2 inside the house). He didn't call me freaking out, and in turn I would freak out. He text me the info and we talked. He asked for a broom to clean them up. A BROOM?? Billy went went wayyy over the top for us and cleaned up and removed 3 dead chickens before we even got home. I've got a ton of respect for the way he handled the situation and our pups. Needless to say, Billy is our dude now. Thanks, Billy!

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life, growing up in a home full of pets, which sparked my passion for caring for them. I spent four years working in the veterinary field, gaining hands-on experience and deepening my love for animal care. During that time, I worked as a kennel technician for two years and as a veterinary technician assistant for another two years, providing attentive, compassionate care to pets of all shapes and sizes. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which gives me plenty of free time during the week to dedicate to pet care. I’m able to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care for pets on a regular basis, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have a friendly 7-year-old dog who loves companionship and playtime! I also have a huge fenced yard, perfect for pets to safely run and enjoy the outdoors.
