Pet Sitting South Padre Island

“Mary Jo took great care of our kitties while we were away. She responds quickly to all communication, and sent us fun pics and updates. We'd definitely use her again as our cat sitter.”

About: Hi, my name is Sabrina! Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. My love for animals comes from my on-going volunteer work at local animal rescues. I have owned and cared for every animal under the umbrella - you name it, I’ve handled it. I also have experience from working as a Kennel Technician for two years at my local animal hospital. I worked with many different breeds as well as am capable of administrating medications. I have lived on the island for four years now and know all the best spots for your dog! I work from home and would be with your pet 24/7. I enjoy being able to put dog owners at ease while they're away from home on vacation, enjoying the beach, working long hours, or simply enjoying an evening out. While in my care, your furry family member(s) will receive a great amount of attention, exercise, and personal loving. I look forward to helping you out and meeting your fur baby! I work from home so am around all day, everyday, 24/7 to take care of any needs your pet may need as well as multiple bathroom breaks!! I have a small fenced yard and balcony area that the dogs can use. I also take them out multiple times through out the day. To ensure dogs don't get too overtired when playing with one another I separate them from time to time for some rest.

About: I love dogs, because they are really man’s friend. They feel when you are sad, when are happy, and they share your laughter. I remember when Oreo travelled with me on the airport, and sat very quietly, because I told him to do so. Or when he does something bad, and like a baby, tries to avoid eye contact, does anything to distract you from what he horribly done. Or when he just got s bath of a shower and runs around the house like z crazy nut to dry himself. I can go on and on and on. They are very pure inside, innocent, and always give you unconditional love.... I love their cute face all kinds. I love dogs, because they are really man’s friend.

Since I’ll be working in the morning looking forward to walking and sitting dogs owners after that. I will be walking, playing with dogs on the beach. They love that. My services also includes sitting down at the owner’s house or condo.

“Iris was very attentive to our Kitty’s care. She provided great communication throughout the process and sent many photos of our cat and kittens while we were away! Would recommend to others and will request again when needed!”

“A star sitter for sure! Kristie took great care of my pup over a long weekend! She was a natural at bonding with my super shy puppy and was even willing and able to help train her. She kept good communications up for every visit so I had peace of mind that my dog was in good hands and administered her meds on the day she needed it. She brought over some good lookin cookie treats and gave my pup a new favorite toy! Kristie also took care of my chickens and I when I came home, my place was left in way better shape than I left it! She went above and beyond for sure and she was also super cool and fun to chat with! I will definitely call Kristie next time I need help with my pup!”

About: Any breed any size is welcomed! Whether you’re looking for a safe place for your hairy child to stay while you’re out of town or you’re just looking to have a vacation from your fur baby, you’re always welcomed to board with me. Hello! My name is Frank Barcenas. I am 28 and live in an apartment located in Bayview, TX. I have 2 pets of my own 2 dogs that mean the world to me and are by my side every second of the day. Taking care of dogs is a passion more than anything. Interacting with different breeds and seeing their different personalities is very interesting to me. I have been experienced with caring for animals for 5+ years. I have taken care of animals ranging from reptiles all the way to donkeys and pigs. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters in the valley and have worked at multiple kennels aswell. I enjoy every second of caring for the animals making sure they’re in a safe and lovable environment as if they were at home. I am experienced in clipping nails, bathings, giving medication, giving shots, and general training. Boarding at my apartment, you can expect that your pups will be cared for and given lots of love and attention. One of the biggest problems dogs have are experiencing extreme anxiety when being separated from their normal routine. Having plenty of toys and multiple distractions at my apartment will ensure that your pet baby has a smooth and wonderful experience when boarding. When boarding with me you can expect multiple photos and videos of your pets daily while boarding. Work a 9-5 job. Pups would be inside during the hot hours of the day with my wife and will have small time outside during peak heat hours. In the afternoon when the heat is not bad they will be able to be outside 3+ hours I have a fenced yard. 24/7 supervision of the pups. Away from any high traffic roads. I have 2 pups who do well with other dogs

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of who I am. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m patient, attentive, and responsive to their individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention, consistency, and basic training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication reminders, or gentle care. I’m very observant and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Now that I’m away at college, I truly miss having animals around, so pet sitting is something that brings me joy in the meantime. I have a big heart for animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾💛 Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I intentionally plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. As a college student, I have structured class times, which allows me to create consistent morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs. I’m used to building my day around animals since I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, or evening cuddle time, I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. On weekends, I typically have even more flexibility, which allows for longer walks or extra playtime. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I prioritize because I truly enjoy it. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise routines, and any specific behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine to reduce stress while their owner is away. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with close supervision. I ensure they have a safe space to rest, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and lots of companionship. Because I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, I’m very attentive to body language and behavior changes, especially for puppies or senior pets who may need extra care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to provide consistent, loving, and responsible care. 🐾💛

Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m very active and enjoy spending time outdoors. I’m happy to take dogs on walks, play with them, and give them plenty of attention and care. I’m also flexible and can work with your pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and routines. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since a very young age. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, birds, fish, and even a turtle and many more animals I work from home, and my job is not demanding, so I am able to lend a hand with whatever your pet needs from me! I give my dogs fresh water every morning when I go out to read and also watch one of my cats as it rolls around the hot cement and smells the grass.
