“Katherine was great. We really enjoyed getting photos of our pets everyday when she visited. She did a great job taking care of them and playing with them everyday.”

“Did a fantastic job dealing with my two high energy knuckle heads! Got along really well with my boys from the start and gave prompt picture and text updates, and even gave my boys some extra time to socialize and play. Highly recommend her!”

“Megan responded quickly after a previous sitter cancelled after I was already on vacation. She spent multiple hours playing with my cats over many visits making sure they were being loved on and even brought in packages. She took a ton of pictures for me and assured me Henry and Kip were doing great! I will definitely be using her again!!!”

“Crystal is the sweetest and our pets loved her at first sight. It was such a peace of mind for us to have her covering basis while we were away. I would recommend her 150%.”

“I was hesitant to book because my dogs are not always friendly to strangers but Serena took the time to meet my dogs before the booking. My dogs loved her and everything went very smoothly. Will definitely book again.”

“Arianna was so amazing! I reached out to her last minute to watch my puppy and I am so grateful I chose her. My puppy is really shy but he warmed up to her so quickly! She took such great care of him! Will be my go to in the future! Also love all the pictures + updates she sends!”

“Courtney was fantastic for our two dogs' drop-in visits. We loved getting her updates and photos, and it was clear our pups were in great hands. We will definitely use her again!”

“Maya was incredibly helpful, kind, and communicated well. She administered oral medications, communicated and handled a situation when my cat had broken into the cabinet to eat some human food, and sent updates with pictures! She truly helped ease the stress when I had to leave last minute for a trip. I will be booking with her again!”

About: Came from a family of multiple large + small breed dogs (pitties, boxers, chihuahuas, I can handle just about anything!) Mother to 3 cats now. I worked at a dog boarding facility in Austin for 2 years. I love creatures of all kinds. I consider my approach to be gentle and intuitive, I'm good at reading animals body language. Experienced with working in high tension situations as well and acting on my toes accordingly for the safety of all! I work an 8-5 full time schedule Monday-Friday. After work + weekend visits are preferred, but can also drop by before work if needed. I treat your home with the respect and care I would my own. I'll keep it a safe and clean environment for your fur baby.

“Carolyn was great! On time and great daily feedback. She came to our house over the holidays to feed and let our pugs outside. Very reusable, will certainly recommend her. Thank you!!”
About: My name is Maggie and I am a huge animal lover. I grew up surrounded by animals, whether that be livestock or household pets. I started pet sitting for my neighbors at a young age and have been continuing my pet care journey into adulthood. Because of my many years of experience I am well informed on all sorts of animal care styles, I even worked for a pet boarding and doggy day care facility so I have knowledge in large group settings and smaller group settings of animals. My family has had experience with special needs pets and I am well-versed in animals that need a little extra care and love. I can’t wait to meet your pet and have fun with them! I am also Red Cross Pet First Aid certified. Currently, most of my time is spent with your pets! When I am not walking dogs or cleaning litter boxes I spend most of my time at home baking, taking care of my cat and fish tanks, and working for friends and people I’ve met as a pet/house sitter. Because of my open schedule I have the ability to give endless time and love to your pets! I live in an apartment with my kitty, she’s great with all animals and very social however if your pet does not get along well with her I have the ability to separate them in different rooms. Because of my experience gained throughout my life and at my former job at a pet boarding facility I am also well versed in administering medications and taking care of special needs animals as my family has rescued multiple animals that need a little extra care.
“Lauryn was great! She went above and beyond to spend special time with our German Shepard. We had just lost our big boy lab, after 10 years, the week before she was scheduled to meet us. Our GSD had never spent a single day without our lab! She was so caring! Even rolled out trash cans to the curb for pick up. Five stars all the way!! She will be out new sitter for as long as she will have us!”


About: What sets me apart is how much I truly care. I’m great with both young and older pets, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I give them lots of attention, playtime, and care just like they’re my own. I would love to do this part time, I take care of my three cats and one dog daily. I love having my animals around and entertaining them. My cats stay in my room so having other animals around won’t be a problem. When I care for pets in someone else’s home, I stick to their usual routine so they feel comfortable. I make sure they have fresh food and water, take them out for potty breaks or walks, and spend time playing and giving them love. I also keep things clean and safe while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have always had a special love for animals. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for and training my own dogs, from basic commands and potty training to teaching good manners and routines. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable! I’m currently not working and am looking for a part-time job, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I would love the opportunity to spend that extra time caring for your pups! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to be flexible and give each pet the time and care they deserve. I live in an apartment with plenty of room for pups to play and feel comfortable. I also have a crate available if your pup needs one! I have a friendly chocolate Lab of my own who loves meeting new friends and going to the dog park. I’d be happy to give your pup plenty of playtime, attention, cuddles, and love while they’re with me!

“We used Kim and Rover for the first time. We have a new puppy who is extremely skiddish. However, it didn't take her any time at all to win our baby over! She communicates, sends pics, and most importantly loves animals. Thanks Kim and we will use you again!”

I can’t say enough about this pet sitter , Angelica… my baby took to her immediately. She was prompt on messages, visits, etc . Dependable, responsible , and caring … and very reliable !!! We were able to be away from our baby, knowing she was being well taken care of, as if we were there with her. Thank you again, Angelica! You are awesome !
I will definitely use Emily again. My cat's mood when I arrived made me realize that he was well cared for during my absence and did not have major separation anxiety. Emily responsed to my last minute request and I felt very comfortable because she was really great with communication and sending images while I was away.

We had a death in the family right before Christmas and had to take a sudden trip for the funeral. It was a huge relief that Carolyn was able to take care of our cat Munchkin during this time - at last minute and in the busy holiday season. I always know my cat is in good hands with Carolyn and I don’t have to worry about her at all.
