About: I’ve taken care of animals for 18 years from small to large animals!

I also work part time at Raising Canes! I’m available every week and weekend! I do work late nights on Friday and Saturdays! All my classes are done by 1pm, except Monday's, which are done by 4:30! I have a fenced in backyard, and i currently own 1 dog which is a border collie! I live on 10 acres as well! I have crates so I can easily crate your pets if needed!

“Victoria was literally the BEST person I could have asked for to take care of my babies! She was so helpful and kept me updated. I’ve never left them alone with anyone but I’m so glad we met her she truly made this experience so amazing!”

“This was my first time using Felicia. She did a great job, communicated well, & sent videos and pictures to keep me updated. She followed instructions and spent time outside with my dog, which he loves. I'm glad she was able to dog sit and look forward to having her do it again soon!”

About: ▪️I know firsthand that dogs aren't just pets—they are cherished members of the family who make our lives infinitely brighter. When your dog is with me, they’ll be loved, pampered, and cared for as if they were my very own! ▪️I have extensive experience watching dogs for friends and family across all stages of life, from energetic puppies who need consistent routine to sweet senior dogs who require gentle care and extra patience. ▪️I’m comfortable handling dogs of all shapes and sizes—whether it's a tiny Chihuahua, a cheeky Scottish Terrier, a playful Boxer, or managing a pack of up to 5 large dogs at once! ▪️Feeding quirks, medication routines, or unique habits? Nothing is too strange— I’m always happy to accommodate your dog’s specific needs to keep them comfortable and happy. ▪️Plus, with my super flexible schedule, I’m readily available for daily walks, quick check-ins, or mid-day play sessions whenever your busy calendar demands. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby! ▪️Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily life as an active remote worker. I start every morning with an early workout and love staying active throughout the day, which means your dog gets guaranteed, high-quality outdoor time before the summer heat sets in! ▪️Because I work from home, my schedule is extremely flexible. Whether your dog needs a mid-day bathroom break, an afternoon walk to help me hit my step goal, or just a quiet companion by my desk while I work, I’m around to give them the continuous care and attention they need. ▪️When staying in or visiting your home, my top priority is maintaining your pet’s familiar routine so they feel safe, calm, and loved while you’re away. ▪️I will follow your exact instructions for feeding, medication, walk schedules, and bedtime routines down to the detail. ▪️Whether your pet loves high-energy fetch sessions, long neighborhood walks, or just snuggling on the couch, I give them my undivided attention. ▪️I double-check all doors, gates, and ensure all household hazards are out of reach, and keep emergency vet details on hand at all times. ▪️You’ll get detailed daily check-ins with clear photos and updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. ▪️I treat your home with the utmost care and respect—keeping areas tidy, taking care of mail/plants if needed, and leaving your house just as clean as I found it.

“Linda was awesome. She took great care of my 4 pets at my home and gave me reports on them. I didn’t worry at all. I will definitely use her again”

About: I have grown up with animals since I can remember. I have cared for all sizes and breeds and have raised a few from birth. I also have chickens and have been around livestock. I am very detail oriented and will always ask questions if I am unsure. I also work in home healthcare so I am used to taking care of pets in my patients homes. I love animals and will always treat and care for them as my own. I am starting school so I am flexible. My weekends are pretty free but I will always be available if you trust me to watch your baby! I have a fully fenced yard, plenty of room, and a barn with an ac unit if your baby likes to have their own space. I have two Dalmatians that are both neutered and very friendly. I will always have my eyes on them because I would never want to put your baby in an uncomfortable environment. My dogs are very used to being around others but are trained enough to be able to be separate areas of the house/ yard if needed.

“Caelyn was great! We did a last minute booking and she took great care of our pups. She watched all 3 at the same time and she did great communicating with us. Strongly recommend to book her!”

About: I have been pet sitting for about 2 years, but it is my favorite side job! I love animals of all kinds and sizes and have been trusted to stay in homes to take care of people’s beloved family members, and their home. I’m currently an elementary school teacher at Wolffarth Elementary in North Lubbock. Depending on what area I am in, I will usually leave with enough time to get to work by 7am. I cannot leave for lunch as I sadly only have 30 minutes, but I am done by 4 every day. This makes it easy to spend the evening with them and I won’t have different hours every day - routine is great for pets! I also share holidays with students so I am pretty available for sitting jobs at those times. While my apartment is a 1 bedroom, it is cozy and great for lower energy dogs. I have plenty of space for them to lay out and they stay in the air conditioning all day. For more active pets, I live right next to a middle school with a paved track for walking, and I am close to a park for dogs who love to run and play fetch!

“Savannah was great with our girls while we are out of town! They were a little disappointed for us to come home I think ? Definitely recommended! She kept in touch with us through our trip and I was at ease knowing she was with them!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember—starting at just 10 years old with our family pets. Growing up in a home with 7 dogs and 1 cat has given me hands-on experience with a wide range of personalities, needs, and care routines. I’ve helped raise puppies from their earliest stages all the way into adulthood. Because of this, I understand how important it is to provide pets with patience, consistency, and lots of love. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or more relaxed and routine-oriented, I’m confident in my ability to keep them safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a full-time teacher, which means I have a structured and dependable schedule throughout the school year (Unavailable from 7am-4pm). During the summer months, I do not work, so I have much more flexibility and availability. I’m available during weekdays and Saturdays to provide any pet care assistance you may need, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to ensure your pets are well taken care of. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications if needed, and preferred exercise routines. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, while also respecting their individual personalities and energy levels.

“Shayla is probably one of the best sitters we’ve had in a long time. Attentive, communicative, respectful and caring! Samson and Dotty were truly spoiled with her here and I know they were very happy with all the attention from their new friend!”

“Catherine did an excellent job of watching our pups! They were clearly very well cared for, and the house was in great shape when we came back home. Would absolutely book with her again!”

“David was awesome! He took great care of our fur babies and made us feel at ease being on vacation! Would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of every animal imaginable. I am good with all animals, and am comfortable enough in my skills to ensure I can be your favorite pet-sitter! I am available pretty much all the time. I have school on Tuesdays, but that’s it. I am good for overnight pet sitting, potty breaks during the day, walking, and anything else you can imagine! I will ensure your pets are walked, fed, watered, bathed (if needed)! They will always be entertained, as I have a plethora of toys that are waiting to be played with and lots of energy to run around!

“AMAZING!!!!”

About: I love animals, but dogs just have my heart. I have had many pet dogs in my life. One whom was born sick; she had a sever type of mange and i had to give medication daily and bathe frequently. That was never a problem to me. I currently have two fur babies, one that i found on the street that someone had thrown and one that i adopted. My fur baby that was found on the street has a problem with his hips and I try my best to keep him comfortable. ALL animals are beautiful! Hello Fur Parents! Need someone to have a companion the whole time you’re gone ? I got it, i’m always home! I am a full time momma trying to make a little extra cash to help my husband. Before staying home, I was in the Medical Field as a CNA/Phlebotomist but left that behind to stay home with my newborn baby! Your pup will have two companions. I have a home that has a backyard that is securely fenced and is pretty specious for your babies to burn all that energy out. I also have two of my own fur babies who are the most loving and playful that have what feels like a million toys who are waiting to be shared with.

“Mercedes took great care of my kitty while we were away. She can be very skittish and warmed up to Mercedes quickly. Mercedes also took great care of our house and all the plants while it was very hot out. Thank you!!”
