About: With 10 years of hands-on experience in caring for animals, I am passionate about providing the best care and attention to pets. I thrive in environments where I can be surrounded by animals, and their presence genuinely enhances my day. My goal is to pursue a career as a veterinarian, where I can continue to care for and improve the lives of pets. I am dedicated to ensuring the well-being of all animals and am eager to contribute my expertise and love for pets to a professional setting. I’m currently on summer break and available full-time for pet care until school starts back in August. This gives me a flexible schedule to provide dedicated attention, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day based on your pet’s needs. . I have a dedicated space in my home for the pets I care for, complete with toys for playtime and a designated feeding area. I also have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and potty breaks. I always make sure pets are fed at the times requested and that they have fresh water available at all times. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while maintaining your pet’s regular routine.

About: I have taken care of so many animals since I was around 8 years old, whether I was caring for a neighbors dog, or a family friends cat, it has always brought me so much joy to be able to care for animals. I am currently working a part-time job, so it works very well in my schedule to be able to check on your fur babies multiple times a day! Even when I have school I will be able to stop by in the middle of the day to check in on your animals if needed. It is very easy for me to be around animals as I love them very much and I have so any animals of my own. It is very easy for me to feed, walk, and accommodate to the needs of an animal, whether that means by giving them medicine, or making specials meals for them. I am always up for the task at hand!

About: I’ve always lived with 3 or more dogs my whole life, each with different personalities. Not only that, I’ve even taken care of 8 dogs at the same time for a week while it was raining. I’m also very familiar with our squished face furry friends, from frenchies, bulldogs, to pugs. I’m currently free for full use until August 25th- I’ll be going back to school as I’m a Texas State student. From there I’ll only be available on weekends, Thursdays, and Fridays. So use me to your full advantage till then, and I’ll use your pups as emotional support as a dread this upcoming school year. 😅 I currently live in an apartment so I know the drills for outside time very well, backyards are even better. I own a 2 year old black pug named Kinny, who enjoys having zoomies with other pups. So if your pup enjoys zooming with others, Kinny is always down to tag along. Having a dog is a treasure, so I will provide the upmost care in whatever routine is provided to me.

About: I’ve taken care of my own animals since I was 10. I fell in love with animals, and since then volunteer with the local shelters, and I dog sit for family and friends when needed. The doggy’s day out program at the SMRAS has helped me gain so much experience handling and caring for dogs that aren’t my own! I have experience with dogs of all sizes but prefer them on the smaller side! :) I work part time currently, so I definitely have room in my schedule to fit the needs of your furry friend. Though I’d love to set up specific schedules to help cater to both myself and your pet. As I do have my own dogs, I’d do pet check ins at your home, with whatever requirements need to be met, and or walks!

About: I’ve grown up around pets and absolutely love being around animals. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I’ve helped care for friends’ and family’s dogs over the years. I’m patient, observant, and attentive—whether it’s walks, playtime, I’m here to make your pet feel secure and loved. Right now, my schedule is super flexible, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I can do early mornings, evenings, or even pop-ins throughout the day—whatever works best for your routine. I do in-home care, so your pet stays comfortable in their own space. I’ll follow whatever instructions you leave and make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent. I always keep things clean, stay in touch, and make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved the whole time you’re away.

About: I have been pet sitting animals now; especially dogs for 10 years. I have always owned dogs growing up and I now own a furry friend of my own (his name is Hank).

About: Hi y’all! My name is Julianna! I am an animal lover with some dogs of my own, but being away from home doesn’t allow me to see them… meaning I have all the more love for your pets! I’m comfortable with pets that may just lounge around, need to go on runs, or climb up the walls. I’m excited to get to know y’all and your furry families! I’m currently working a part-time job in New Braunfels, but am willing to travel anywhere near San Marcos. My schedule changes weekly, but I am always free in the evenings (perfect for family outings or the needed date nights 😉) and would be happy to share times that I’m available as needed. I would follow any and all instructions provided by the parents of the pets, whether that be kennel at night or let out to roam.

Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to look after their pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m happy to help with feeding, grooming, walks, playtime, and even caring for senior dogs who may need a little extra attention. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide care throughout the day. I can visit your home for walks, feeding, playtime, or drop-in visits as needed. My schedule is open on weekdays and weekends, so I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

About: An experienced and professional petsitter who has previously worked for On Paws Professional Pet Services in San Marcos, Texas. I have also grown up with two dogs and a bird, who have since passed. My roommates' cats and dogs have felt like family to me, and treated as such. Since moving to Fentress, I got my own cat, Umami who is the cutest character and wild child that I love so dearly! I would love to keep your pet company (and vise versa!) I’m currently only working part-time, so I have some wiggle room to care for your pet(s)! I would be able to feed, play, and walk with them before/after work or at least on my days off! I would definitely treat them as my own, and try to make them as happy and comfortable as possible, while making sure their needs are met.

About: I grew up on a small farm with animals, especially dogs. My dog Juney was my best friend and I took her everywhere as a kid. Since then I have owned 3 dogs. I had my dog, Slinkey, for 15 years and Tyson for 7 (he is 13). Slinkey passed from age in January 2020. We have a new puppy we adopted. Maple was born on Valentines 2020. I started sitting other dogs when I was a teenager and have continued to do so ever since. I was a Horse Wrangler assistant for 2 years so I'm not afraid of hard work! I will work hard to accommodate you and your pet's needs. I do offer pickup in Austin for $20. I also offer baths for $15. I love to snuggle and roll on the floor and go outside with my pups and yours. I love all animals!
