“Amanda was absolutely wonderful! I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs in her care, and I truly appreciated her accommodating my last minute request. I feel very lucky that she was available. I highly recommend her, and I will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”

“Esmeralda was a great communicator and sent pictures of my fur babies to me at each drop in. My cats normally hide but they came out for her instantly. That’s a good sign. :) I would not hesitate to hire her again.”

About: I grew up in Cameroon in a home where animals were always part of daily life. Throughout my childhood, my family cared for multiple pets at a time, including dogs and cats, and I also spent time around many other animals through regular visits to our family farm. Being around animals from a young age taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to understand different pet personalities and comfort levels. I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, calm, and well looked after. As a nursing student, I’m also very detail-oriented, responsible, and comfortable following routines and instructions carefully. I understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for your pet, and I always aim to provide dependable and compassionate care. I am currently a student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable pet care on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends. I am also available for drop-in visits in the mornings and afternoons, depending on the booking, and I can accommodate many same-day requests based on availability. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure each visit includes feeding, playtime, and attentive care. I also aim to provide timely updates and clear communication so pet owners feel comfortable and informed while their pets are in my care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and safety preferences. I always make sure pets are secure before entering or leaving the home and provide updates so owners feel informed and reassured. I understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and maintaining a clean and calm environment. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“Shelby is very nice. Fred took to her very quickly. Shelby is very kind, gentle and relaxed, but always vigilant watching him as he played in the yard. I highly recommend her and she will be watching Fred on a weekly basis and then daily basis.”

“Jazlynn was absolutely amazing. I opted for the drop-in visits. She stopped by the house twice a day and took care of my 160 Cane Corso. She was punctual and communication was exceptional. Well done ma’am.”

“Absolutely amazing. She did everything I asked, and then some. All of my crazy crew of my little dachshunds absolutely loved her. Definitely will be rehiring her again.”

About: I worked at a pet rescue for 2 1/2 years, as well as taking care of my two adorable kitties, bearded dragon, hamster, tarantula, and three fish tanks. At the rescue I took care of cats, dogs, horses, and a mule doing basic care like feeding and cleaning up after them as well as giving lots of love and attention. I also have experience giving medications and baths to both cats and dogs. I work full-time at Petco as an Animal Care Supervisor! I do work 5 days a week, full 8-9 hour days. I can get off as late as 9pm. I would of course be with your baby all night and any time I'm not at work! I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep the pet’s routine as normal as possible. This includes feeding, walks, medications, litter or yard clean-up, and of course, quality time! I also respect the client’s home, ensuring it's left clean and secure after each visit.
About: I have always loved animals. Not just pets. I’m vegan and animals mean more to me than anything in this world. I have always been around dogs, cats, raccoons, opossums, cows, you name it. I have three dogs of my own and two cats. I am gentle and sure to take great care of all of my furry friends :) I work online from home, so I have a VERY open schedule. This just interested me because it’s a chance to meet new, sweet fur-babies since I cannot afford to have ten dogs of my own. I have two dogs. However, if needed they can be separated from other dogs. I have a nice sized yard for room to play. I also have a pool for my friends who like swimming!
About: Hi there, I'm Krystal, a genuine animal lover! I have an American Pit bull terrier about to be 8 years old and leopard gecko. I have a large yard and home with plenty of space for outdoor play, a few parks and a bayou nearby to take your fur baby out on a nice walk. I would prefer all pets to be house trained but its okay if they're pad trained. I work during the daytime and rotate care shifts with my hubs when I'm away so your fur baby will always have a set of eyes on them at all times. We are a team with pet sitting so your baby will always be in good hands! For overnight care, I'll be able to stay and care for your pet in your home as well while you're away. Any special requests can be accommodated. Do not be afraid to ask questions during a booking! Let me know when I can care for your pet! I’m always glad to help and be a care giver! I work part-time and have open availability. Dog parks visits are a favorite! Potty breaks are frequently given and walks as well unless otherwise discussed. Please keep in mind, due to extreme heat temperatures, your pet may be walked earlier/later than usual to prevent health concerns. I do offer a medium crate and separate eating/drinking tray for your fur baby! Shampoos and brushing available upon request during their stay and can be given if they do get dirty during their stay or outdoor/playtime.

“Alexee is so GREAT! She took very good care of my cat, and she was giving me nice updates every day with lots of pics. I will definitely contact her again to take care of my kitty!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. What sets me apart is my calm approach, reliability, and ability to handle both energetic pups and gentle seniors. I treat every dog like family and make sure owners feel confident and updated every step of the way. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule that lets me dedicate quality time to pets throughout the week. I’m available on weekdays and between classes, so I can make sure your pets get the attention and care they need. I provide a safe, loving environment and follow each pet’s routine closely. I can crate pets if needed or based on owner preference. My priority is making sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and cared for like family.

This was the very first time I left my cat, Milo, with Star, and she took such wonderful care of Milo. While we were away, she stayed in touch every day and sent pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even helped water the plants and took Milo on walks — she absolutely loved that. Thank you so much, Star, for taking such beautiful care of Milo. I will definitely ask you to look after her again, and I look forward to working with you in the future.
