“Carlos has taken care of our husky 3 times now! Twice for long holiday vacations, and once very last minute. He is very reliable, dependable, and trustworthy! He sends us lots of pictures too. Totally would recommend him. Thanks Carlos!!”

About: I grew up with a lot of cats and dogs! They will get all the love, attention and care that they need while I'm with them! I am now working part time currently with plenty of free time to walk or care for your fur baby on the weekday and weekends I will walk your baby for as long as they need, feed or give them lots of treats and love! If they need a quick potty break while you are at work, i can do that too!

About: I treat every animal I take care of like they are mine. All of my animals are VERY spoiled and loved and get the best quality care I can offer. I love being outside (weather isn’t a issue I’ll walk dogs in the rain/snow!). I’ve taken care of puppies that needed help potty training all the way to old senior dogs that need special medication 3 times a day. I love all breeds! I believe there are no “bad breeds”. I will love on your dog the whole time I’m with them and treat them like they are mine. I know it’s hard for you to leave your animal, so especially during the 1st couple days I will spend extra time with them to make sure they are comfortable with me and not stressed about you leaving. I also love cats. I’ve taken care of kittens and having to bottle feed them to old cats with maintenance/special lifestyles. I believe cats need as much attention as dogs. I have owned horses for 20 years. I can also care for any and all equines. I’ve worked with unhandled horses to high end show horses. I don’t mind making up grain, cleaning stalls and weighing hay as needed. The only animal I will not watch are snakes. I will happily watch any critter you have! Just no snakes. If I’m being honest I’m absolutely terrified of them. Lol! It is second nature to me. Taking care of animals is just the norm. It is always a priority to me. I’m always thinking about them and how to make them happier. I work, but it is very flexible so I am able to let out for potty breaks and give meds as needed. I will follow your routine with your animals so it’s not strange for them with a new person. They will be treated as if they are my own personal pet. Lots of snuggles, pets, love and treats if allowed! Your house will be as clean as when you left it. I always strip the bed, start any laundry, take out trash, wipe down everything and make sure all dishes are done and put away if applicable.

About: I love animals and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve also cared for other varieties of animals including birds, reptiles and rodents. I’m happy to feed your birds, reptiles or rodents too. I’m currently working part time so, I’ll have plenty of time to care for and play with your animals. I’m also happy to taxi them to doggy day care or the vet. House sitting also available. I treat animals like my own. If they’ll let want to play or lay, it’s fine with me. I adhere to your rules but try to spoil them too.

About: I have 30 + years of experience caring for pets. I was a dog walker for high profile clients in Philadelphia and Chicago and beautiful standard mutts in San Francisco. I am available to walk dogs and do general pet care on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I don’t mind waking up at the crack of dawn or staying out after dark to care for pets or walk dogs. I follow pet owner instructions to a t. Meeting your pets needs and ensuring their safety is very important to me. I have owned many animals through my life and appreciate when my sitters have met my animals needs. This makes the pet owner and the pet feel comfortable and helps develop trust.

About: I believe that pets aren't just pets. They are one of us, making them a big part of our families. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats. My cats are usually out of sight until they are hungry. We have dog gates to keep everyone safe. I have a large fenced yard and a daughter who loves animals. We are a very dog friendly family. Your dogs will be in a fun home environment and love you for letting them stay here. We also have chickens and ducks! However, they are locked up and inaccessible to the dogs. About this sitter: I am a 36 year old stay at home mom and wife. I have a 13 year old daughter. She loves animals and is very gentle. My husband and I own our home. We have a large fenced in yard. I can walk dogs, help to potty train, help with basic obedience, crate train, take to dog parks, even come and clean litter boxes and feed cats! My dogs are crate trained and sleep in their crates when we are not home. My dogs get to be on the couch and bed with us. We do not leave them outside when it is too hot or too cold, but they do love to lay in the sun. Pet care fits great with my schedule, as taking care of my family is my number one priority. Working a 9 to 5 job just doesn’t fit in with my daily life. Pet care is fun, unique, and never the same! I have a fenced backyard. I would never leave your pet outside unattended. If I’m at your home, I’ll play with your cats or dogs. I’ll gain their trust (not just clean litter boxes or pick up after them). I make sure to take lots of videos and pictures so you know they are happy and taken care of. Your pets are treated with respect and like my own when I care for them.

About: I have been working with animals since I was little. I have had a plethora of furry friends; rodents, reptiles, birds, cats, dogs, a pig! Most of my focus as of recent is dogs, I am actually taking a dog training certification course at the moment to eventually launch my own training program and daycare center. I am pet first aid and CPR certified, so in case any kind of emergency I am always prepared! Animals are my passion and seeing them happy and thrive gives me so much joy. We have a complete fenced in yard, an abundance of toys and treats, and of course, so much LOVE! I work at a hotel in downtown Paso in the evenings, if you’re close to the area I can use my break to do a quick run to the house! Our normal routine is going for a walk in the morning, coming home to have a teeth treat, and then playing in the yard! Between my partner and I, one of us is almost ALWAYS home. And if we’re not, we do have a furbo that we utilize to keep eyes on the dogs & communicate with them if need be. I have a complete fenced in yard, and have two dogs to help socialize and tire your dog out! We have comfy beds everywhere for your pup to take a nap, and they're always welcome to sit next to us on the couch!

About: I have over 9 years of hands on experience caring for my own three dogs, which has given me a deep understanding of pet care, including feeding, grooming, exercise, and general health maintenance. Over the years, I’ve managed everything from daily walks and training routines to vet visits and special diets. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve also dog sat for friends, looking after dogs of various breeds and sizes. My experience has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to each dog's individual needs, making sure that they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible and open schedule, which allows me to fully dedicate time and attention to pet care. This flexibility means I can easily accommodate your pet's specific routines, whether that includes early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening feedings. I’m able to provide consistent care throughout the day. I prioritize keeping your pets active, engaged, and comforted, and I’m available for both short visits and long stays. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I’m committed to giving each pet the time, energy, and affection they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their established routines to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease while you're away. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and any specific needs. Daily walks are done at the times your pets are used to, and I always try to make sure they get the right amount of exercise and playtime based on their energy levels and preferences. I also make sure to spend quality time with your pets whether that means playing fetch, or simply being present to keep them company. I understand how important consistency is with my own dogs, so I stick closely to your instructions, including any medication schedules, crate routines, or expectations. My goal is to make your pets feel as happy and secure as they do when you're home.

About: I’ve had a dog my entire life. All Labrador retrievers which are not for the faint of heart. My current lab I got at 8 weeks old and I have done all her training myself with the help of classes and courses from several different local trainers. I love all dogs they are such lovers. I am an active person who loves hiking, walking and going to the beach with my pup on my days off 🤍 I work part time as a medical professional and want to help with doggy care on my days off. I understand that some owners love having pets but lead a busy life so I am here to help however I can! I have a fenced yard and a 2 yo Labrador to keep your dog busy as needed. I can crate your dog if crate trained and needed as well. Safety of your pet is my utmost concern!

About: I have almost 10 years of dog experience. I have worked with various breeds and come to appreciate all their quirky behaviors. I have experience (and I am comfortable) with different training tools and will be happy to accommodate what works best for you and your pup! I understand that all dogs are unique in their own way when it comes to training methods, so I am happy to accommodate. I will treat your pet like my own! Pets are part of the family! You have to feed them, walk them, bath them, snuggle them, play with them. My dogs are part of my family! Depending on what the services are, I will play with your dog (or cat!), take them for a potty break, refill the water bowl, feed them, brush them (if they like it), and provide treats (if they can tolerate it). I will be respectful of your home and abide by the rules set forth.

About: I’ve actually worked as a kennel attendant in the past, and I was up until recently a dog mommy myself. I also have experience with cats, and even more exotic animals like hedgehogs and frogs, haha!! I usually have work around 3pm - 7pm about 2-3 times a week, but I’m very easy to work with and I have no problem fitting you in. :) Personally, I have 3 cats, 1 snake, and 1 spider living in the same house so I’d say I’m pretty good at handling a variety of different needs. If I were to take care of your pet, I’d treat them no less than my own.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I can remember. Grew up on a ranch my whole life, I have always been in charge of the wellness of every animal. Family and friends always have relied on me for pet sitting, when needed. Dogs and cats just happen to be my favorite:). Currently looking for a side gig. Very lenient with my daily schedule. Weekends/weekdays both work for me. Morning/evening both work as well. Check ups will happen regularly. I have 4 loving cats, and 15 acres. Lots of places to go on walks for exercise. Lots of love, check ups, and time will be spent on the animals well-being to insure happiness and comfort.

“Coral has been great! She's been very communicative and put my mind at ease when having to leave my pup! Thank you!”

About: I have a deep love for connecting with dogs and understand that each one is unique, with their own special needs and personality.

I know how important your dog is to you, and I’ll treat them with the utmost love and respect. The happier your dog is, the happier I am—let me help make your dog’s day as joyful as possible!

Whether it's early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I’m happy to work around your schedule to ensure your dog receives the care they deserve. Just let me know, and I'll do my best to accommodate!

I’m happy to spend as much time with your dog as they want—whether that means taking them on long walks, playing fetch, or simply cuddling on the couch. I treat every pup like a little kid looking for fun, love, and companionship. If your dog has special needs, I am fully equipped to provide the care and attention they require, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-loved at all times.
