“Alex is amazing. Always on time, send photos through out his time. He really pays attention to Howie’s habits and likes to help make him comfortable! He was event kind enough to buy him a new ball when Howie knocked them over the fence and I wasn’t able to get to the store to get more.”



“Nathalya was wonderful! She was super sweet with the dogs and had a lot of patience with them since they tend to go on hunger strikes while we’re gone! She communicated well and sent us a lot of wonderful pictures!”

About: I prefer to go by “Vel”! I’ve worked as a veterinary technician for several years and have had the pleasure of working with thousands of animals: dogs, cats, birds, you name it! I’m very familiar with husbandry/care, special dietary and nutritional needs, and administering medications and injections to just about any animal. I think all animal life is precious and deserves to be treated as such! I’m currently owned by two cats, two parrots, and an array of reptiles, all of which I love dearly. I’m very big on providing the best care possible to both my animals and yours. I also understand that every animal is unique and has their own quirks and personalities, and I’m happy to provide the patience, care, and understanding they need. Important Notes: -Severyn/Sevvy is a nickname of mine! -I work from home, but I do need ideally two weeks in advance notice of when you need my services. If the notice is shorter, don’t hesitate to still reach out, as I’m more than happy to see if I can make it work out! As an owner of various pets, every day requires species-specific care and attention, so I’m very familiar with all kinds of routines and needs for them. I work from home and have lots of availability! As of right now, I live in an apartment, so I only offer house-sitting pet services. I’m more than happy to follow your specific routines and care that you provide for any of your little guys. I don’t have any animal allergies and I’m not afraid of any species, and I always try to care for anyone’s animals as if they were my own!

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, horses, rabbits and goats. I’ve taken care of animals for my family, my neighbors, and for my friends throughout my whole life. I’ve loved being around and caring for animals for as long as I can remember, so I understand the importance of making sure our pets are taken care of. I currently work full time as a Plant and Soil Scientist with the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture). I have weekends off, as well as plenty of time in the early mornings and evenings to spend with animals. I try my best to imitate the owners schedules so that the animals are comfortable. I'm happy to spend time with the animals so that they get exercise and play time as well as give them any and all attention they need and plenty of treats! I follow instructions and ensure any medications needed are given on time and the correct dosage.

“Paul was the best dog sitter I've EVER had. He took such amazing care of my pups, updated me frequently, sent pictures and videos, and left my house in perfect condition. I'm SO glad I found him. I was able to go away on a work trip, knowing my dog's were in good hands. Thank you Paul!”


“Darrius did an amazing job watching our house and our dogs for a week while we were out of the country. He was very reliable and trustworthy. He sent us checkins and pictures daily. Our dogs were happy and clean when we came home. He even dealt with our pool and brought our packages inside. We will definitely be using him again!”


“We were very pleased with Skylar's professionalism when he stayed with our dog. His communication and pictures were timely and he left our home clean (even washed the sheets). Our pup also ate a ton which is great since he sometimes doesn't eat much when we leave.”


About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience at Lonestar Pet Lodges, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities! From energetic puppies to senior dogs with special needs. My time in a professional boarding facility taught me how to spot behavior cues, administer medications, and create a safe, stress-free environment that feels like home. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them not just routine care, but real companionship, playtime, and affection. Whether it’s a walk, a weekend stay, or drop-in visits, you can trust that your pup is in experienced, loving hands! I’m currently still working part-time at Lonestar Pet Lodges but my schedule is very flexible-as well as weekend availability. I don’t have a set schedule so it changes throughout the month but I will make sure your pet gets the most care and time with me! I have a big dog of my own and I treat her like she’s my child. I always make sure she is surrounded by the people she loves and makes sure she gets all the biscuits and pets! I can guarantee your pet will be loved and taken care of under my watch!

About: I always make sure to go by the rules & routine of the owners when it comes to feedings, walks, medications, etc. If I have any questions or concerns, I contact them directly. I have taken care of a few dogs and cats ranging from a variety of my friends/family members and a few neighbors. My favorite part is cuddling and/or playing with them because that just brings me joy. I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible when it comes to being able to take a dog on a walk or feed them mid day. In my home, my cat has an area of his food & water as well as a separate area for his litter box. His sleeping area varies because he’s our spoiled boy. I make sure that if the pet makes any kind of mess that I clean it up right away with any cleaning supplies that are available and wash laundry if needed.

“5 Stars for Nelson! Nelson is hands down the best pet sitter out there! I recently had the absolute pleasure of trusting Nelson to care for my pets while I was away, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very start, he showed deep concern and thoughtful attention—not just to tasks, but to the emotional and physical well-being of my pets. He kept me consistently updated with sweet photos and messages, took initiative by changing the cat litter without being asked, and played wholeheartedly with the dogs. He even took Missy on multiple walks—completely unprompted—simply because he cared. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. What really blew me away is how Missy, who doesn’t warm up easily to people (especially men), loved Nelson. That’s practically a miracle in itself—and speaks volumes about his gentle energy, patience, and kindness. Nelson gave me genuine peace of mind. His heart, intuition, and respect for my pets’ personalities make him incomparable. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond and truly gets animals, Nelson is the one. Missy already misses him—and honestly, so do I!”


“Sophia was everything we had hoped for. She stayed with our elderly anxious poodle and gave him lots of love a reassurance. We felt like he was in great hands! We will definitely be calling on Sophia again to come stay at our house and take care of our fur baby!”


“Jad is very trustworthy. We had him house sit and take care of our three dogs. He spent time with them and gave them plenty of attention. We thought he did such a great job, we are having him back next weekend.”


“Alexi watched my fur babies over the holidays. I couldn’t have been more pleased. She sent multiple pictures throughout our trip. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs.”


About: Hi I’m Hannah! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with a Yellow Lab and a Jack Russell Terrier, and in adulthood, I’ve had a French Bulldog and now a sweet Frenchie-Boston Terrier mix as our family dog. I’ve also had three wonderful cats, so I understand the unique personalities and needs of both pups and kitties. I’ve been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was about 10 years old, helping out neighbors, friends, and family—and I’ve truly loved every minute of it. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. What sets me apart: • Experienced with administering medications (oral and topical) • Comfortable feeding pets based on special diets or routines • Active playtime and personalized attention • Flexible schedule and reliable communication • Clean, respectful, and trustworthy in your home Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight care, or daily drop-ins, I’m here to make your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry family! I work from home Monday through Friday, which means I have full availability to be with your pets throughout the day. Whether your pet needs constant company, scheduled walks, or drop-in visits, I have the flexibility to accommodate their routine even on weekends! I live in a house with a fully fenced-in yard, offering a safe and secure space for playtime and potty breaks. Your pet will enjoy lots of attention, love, and a comfortable home environment while you’re away. I truly love all animals as if they are my own. I do not currently own any of my own animals so that won’t be an issue.

About: Hello, we are Erik and Pepper. We both work from home and have 3 dogs and 2 cats. We absolutely love animals and would love to help take care of yours! We let our boys out every 2 hours and give them lots of attention throughout the day. Our frank is an old man so he mostly sleeps. Henry is 4 years old so he's a perfect age for playing or respecting sleep. Lemon is a sweet, energetic puppy. We both work in I.T. and are stay at homebodies. We do not accept any boarding or day care requests without completing a meet and greet first. We have a fenced in yard and very safe trails to walk dogs. We are very accommodating for any dogs that need special care. We have a senior dog and he needs lots of extra love, so we are familiar with what is needed. We both work from home and have a senior dog that requires special attention. We are always available to take care of dogs and we play/walk them on our breaks. We don't own any crates, so your dog will never be in one. The exception is if your dog feels safe in a crate, you are more than welcome to bring one for them. We normally only board 2 dogs maximum at a time but special accommodations can be made for dogs we have experience with and are known to have little issues. We have a very clean, non carpeted house. Couches are leather and we regularly mop/disinfect every 2 days. Our dogs are bathed every 2 weeks and every dog bed is washed at the same time. Our backyard is fenced in and the perimeter has been checked to make sure no small dogs can slip through any spot.

“David house sat for us for four days over Thanksgiving and took wonderful care of our two dogs and our home. One of our pups doesn’t take to new people very easily but David made the time and effort to come by to introduce himself to our dogs three times and it all worked out great.”

“Paige has been an incredible walker and caretaker for our Rottweiler, Jasmine. From day one, they treated her with so much respect, patience, and love—exactly what a strong, intelligent dog like Jasmine deserves. Rottweilers can be a bit misunderstood, but Paige saw her sweet personality right away and formed an amazing bond with her. Whether it’s daily walks or overnight stays, I know Jasmine is in the best hands. We get detailed updates and the cutest photos, and it’s clear she’s happy, calm, and well cared for every time. Paige is also incredibly reliable, communicative, and respectful of our home. Finding someone I could trust with a large breed dog wasn’t easy—but Paige has exceeded every expectation.

They’re both big dogs with very different personalities, and she handles them with so much care, confidence, and patience. Rambo can be a bit stubborn and Xena’s more sensitive, but Hannah connects with them both so naturally. They light up when they see her, it’s clear they feel safe and loved around her! She’s responsible, communicative, and genuinely loves animals. Whether it’s sticking to their routines, giving them playtime, or just making sure they’re comfortable while I’m away, she always goes above and beyond.

Erik has been patiently taking care of him with dedicated love and unceasing efforts.”
