About: As a kid, I helped care for our family cats and learned early what it means to be responsible for animals. In high school and college, I started overnight dog sitting for my aunt, which helped me build confidence and consistency in caring for pets in someone else’s home. As an adult, I’ve continued pet sitting for three main families, becoming someone they regularly rely on for trustworthy, attentive care. I’m calm, dependable, and comfortable with routine care, overnight stays, and making sure pets feel safe and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine since I work part time and have a flexible schedule. I already spend a lot of my day being active with my own dog—we typically go on 2–3 mile walks daily, which I really enjoy. I love being outdoors and keeping pets engaged and exercised, but I’m just as happy providing calm, relaxed care for pets who prefer a slower pace or more cuddles and downtime. My routine naturally revolves around making sure animals feel comfortable, cared for, and well looked after. We have a large, secure, privacy-fenced yard where dogs can safely spend time outside, and our neighborhood is quiet and safe for walks. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and making sure pets are comfortable and stress-free in my care. I’m also very happy to care for pets in their own home—whether that’s letting dogs out for potty breaks, going on walks in their favorite areas, feeding meals and treats, or spending time giving cats attention and cuddles. I follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel secure and cared for in their familiar environment.

About: I've had dogs by my side for as long as I can remember, and they’re truly a part of my family. The lifelong experience has taught me how to understand their needs and personalities. I’m passionate about giving them the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’m here to make sure your dogs feel happy and well-cared for while you’re away! I attend classes at A-State part-time and work part-time, I’ve never gone for more than four consecutive hours and spend at least 50% of my time at home. I dedicate a lot of time to giving my fur babies attention and I will do the same for yours. Day-to-day routines while boarding would depend on your animals habits and routines! My apartment complex has a fenced in doggy park with unlimited access and lots of space for walks! Inside, there's plenty of room for lounging, with cozy spots for napping and a variety of toys to keep them entertained. The environment is pet-friendly and designed to provide a calm, loving atmosphere where your pets can feel at home and enjoy their time with me! I also provide attentive care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, ensuring they feel relaxed and secure while you’re away.

“I forgot to review when Sierra watched my Delta for me. She was very sweet, and would definitely recommend her!”

“I could not have had a better dog sitter than Patience. This was Ollie's first time being with a sitter and he had never been left with a stranger. I was very concerned. Patience was wonderful. She texted me pictures of Ollie through the day and assured me that he was doing fine. Ollie surprised me on the second day. We pulled into the driveway and Ollie started whining. I thought it was because he was afraid of being left with Patience. Wrong! When I opened the car door, he jumped right out and went to Patience. He then stood on his hind legs, placed his front paws on her thigh, and wanted to he petted. I was in shock! This said everything to me and is the reason for a 5 star rating. Ollie loved her and wanted to be with her...'nuff said.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 4 years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I absolutely love animals and always make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention and cuddles! I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. I have a pretty flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I’m available throughout the week and possibly weekends for walks, check-ins, or just keeping them company when you’re away. I always make sure pets are comfortable and taken care of. I’m good about following whatever routine you have for them, whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or anything else they’re used to. I know that each pet is different, so whatever works for them also works for me:)

“Brittney was a sweetheart and so good with my cats. They can be very shy but they came right up to her and were very comfortable around her, so you know she’s a good soul! She was super communicative, sent tons of pictures and did a great job, I would absolutely book her again ❤️”

Cyli H.

“Patience was so lovely for this spintaneous decision I had. We may need to do a meet and greet to try and get Sam familiar with her officially. Howecer, I would request Patience again!”

Lacy M.

“Christopher sat with our cat in our home and did a wonderful job! He took good care of our pet and our home as well. We will definitely be using him again in the future and highly recommend him for anyone’s fur baby.”

About: I have grown up with dogs of all shapes and sizes my whole life. As a pet owner myself, I always want to know that my pups are safe and happy anytime I am away. I will treat your pets like my own and ensure they will have all the love and attention they need. My schedule is very relaxed and flexible so I am always able to provide your pet with the care and attention they need and deserve! I will treat your pet like my own as it’s already a stressful time for them because their family is away. Pets can sometimes be a bit sensitive to change, therefore patience and extra attention will gladly be given!!

“Darah has been so good with my pup! She’s been suffering from major separation anxiety and having a friend plus her pups to hang out with all day has really helped. We appreciate her so much!”

Caitlin G.

“Brittney was great! Super flexible with our drop off and pick up times since we were coming from out of town. She sent lots of pictures and responds very quickly to all messages.”

Stacie C.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of care, structure, and attention I bring to every animal I look after. I take a lot of pride in providing excellent care for my own pets, and I treat every animal in my care with that same level of love and responsibility. I’ve had dogs of my own for over 4 years, and even before that, I was trusted to care for multiple dogs belonging to friends and family. Through that experience, I’ve learned how important consistency, safety, and intentional care are for keeping pets happy and stress-free. I provide a structured, safe environment while still making sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and understood. I also have experience caring for cats, so I’m comfortable working with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority, and I’m committed to making sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a huge part of my daily life. My routine truly revolves around my animals. I already structure my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for. Because of that, adding pet care for others fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I have plenty of time, flexibility, and attention to give, so I’m able to be very present and intentional with every pet I care for. Whether it’s sticking to a specific schedule, providing exercise, or just giving them extra love and attention, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I live in a house with two dogs of my own and about 2 cleared acres, giving plenty of space for safe, supervised outdoor time. While my property isn’t fenced, I’m very mindful about safety and always use leashes, harnesses, or close supervision. My neighborhood is also great for walks, and I have a park nearby that I love taking dogs to for extra exercise and enrichment. I’m fully equipped with supplies like leashes, harnesses, crates, and bowls, so I can easily meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize respect, consistency, and attention to detail. I follow all instructions closely to maintain your pet’s normal routine and comfort. I’m very mindful of your space and always aim to leave your home even better than I found it. Most importantly, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I am currently earning my master’s in Veterinary Sciences before I start vet school in August. Previously I worked providing animal care to A&M’s research and teaching animals for 3 years while in undergrad. Here I improved my skills at providing specialized care, following specific directions, and assisted vet staff with treatments and medication. I served as President for the A&M Animal Welfare & Behavior club where I improved my knowledge to care for animals of all behaviors. Whether scared, aggressive, high-energy or somewhere in between I look forward to meeting all personalities and helping them be fear-free and comfortable. I have experience with a wide variety of species, highlighted below: Exotics- I help a leadership role in A&M’s Zoological Society where I gained hands-on experiences Reptiles and amphibians- I volunteered with a reptile rescue group cleaning enclosures and feeding 4-H & FFA projects– I showed livestock for many years and have experience with goats, hogs, rabbits, steers and poultry Fish- I worked at a TPWD fish hatchery and have had personal freshwater aquariums. I am comfortable with daily maintenance and care, water changes, and emergency treatments. Equine- I provided daily care and treatment for the horses at A&M’s veterinary medical park. I assisted with a mare-foal research project as well. Livestock – I earned my bachelor's in animal science from Texas A&M with a minor in poultry science. Welfare - While away from your pet, I have plenty of enrichment toys to keep them entertained & active Plants & Gardens – No need to worry about your horticulture while away from home, I have previous experience with house plants and gardens. Previous work experience at an arboretum Photography- I participated in photography projects through 4-H so I will do my best to send you pictures of your pet having fun while you’re away! Pet care is the first thing I do every morning and often the way I end my day. In between, I spend most of my time as a student learning about veterinary medicine and animal husbandry. As needed, I take study breaks to exercise animals in my care. When treatments/specialized care is relevant a prioritize it into my schedule. As a safety precaution for my personal dogs, I have chosen not to offer services at my home. For dogs that might be a flight risk, I have tracking collars that can be used as well as harnesses for extra restraint. I prefer training and exercising animals in an environment they are familiar with but will adjust depending on walk duration and proximity to busy roads. My first dog and most recent loss, was hit by a car at home by a distracted family member. Knowing the pain this causes, I practice extreme caution when it comes to removing animals from a fenced yard. Different homes have different rules so I will make sure to accommodate specifics for your pets regarding indoor/outdoor animals, treats, kenneling, tv time, and being on furniture. I believe our homes are indicative of our hard work/accomplishments in life, it is an honor to be trusted with your pet and home, I will treat both with respect. I have landscaping/lawn care experience, which I am happy to offer while you are away for an extended time.
