“Kristy and her family were awesome! My two pups were very well socialized with all of her pets, even my anxious girl became comfortable and seemed to enjoy her stay. Kristy gave them both special attention, even making them scrambled eggs one morning, and letting them cozy up on her bed. You can tell she is a true dog lover and understands what they need. She gave me lots of updates and photos to put my mind at ease!”

“Our dog Ace had an amazing stay and was clearly a happy boy in the pictures/updates we received during our stay. Ryan took great care of him and would recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

“Stephen and his family were great with our dog (and family member) Rainey. So much better to have a loving family take care of her than boarding her. I highly recommend them. Scott”
“Angela was very accommodating and took great care of my cats! I would definitely book again and would 100% recommend her services to anyone looking for excellent pet care 😊”
“This was our first time using Rover and I’m so happy we found Griffin! He watched our chihuahua for a week and I think she had a better time on vacation than we did! The kids (and adults) absolutely loved getting the picture/video updates and we so appreciated how they let Tallulah make herself feel right at home. We will definitely be asking for Griffin again next time we travel.”
“Ben and Cassie are extremely kind. They were accommodating to us forgetting our dog food, updated us during Ivy’s stay and were very professional. We will be using them again in the future, overall a great experience.”
“Dog was in great hands with Billie. Billie was also very accommodating when I had to make a last minute schedule change. Would definitely recommend Billie if you're looking for safe and reliable care for your pet.”

“Bridget did great watching my dog Maisy. She sent lots of pictures and noticed my dogs eyes get excessively crusty and made sure to keep them clean while I was gone.”
“Karrie helped us out last minute on a busy holiday weekend and she was absolutely phenomenal. She communicated well and sent us pictures and updates. Could not recommend her enough.”

“Maddie was fantastic! She communicated very well throughout her visits and took photos of our fur baby for us. She even went above and beyond what we expected while we were gone! We definitely recommend her :)”
“Leaving my 14-month-old cat, Oreo, for the first time was nerve-wracking, but Kristi made the entire experience so easy. She was immediately responsive from the time I booked, through scheduling, drop-off, and pickup, and always answered my messages quickly. She sent plenty of updates and photos during Oreo’s 3-night stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked Oreo up, she meowed the whole ride home like she was telling me all about her vacation while I was on my vacation! 😂 I’m so grateful for the wonderful care Kristi and her family gave Oreo, and I will definitely consider booking with them again!”
“Alex was so sweet and amazing with our dogs! We were able to book with her last minute and she was super flexible/accommodating. She sent me pictures and updates, and had great communication. We were even able to extend our booking with her which was super helpful. I would definitely book with her again for future dog sits!”
“Rachel came in less than 24 hours after a medical emergency took me to the hospital. She stayed on the text with me until 3 am to get everything set up. She is the best and most importantly is helping a sensitive kitty who was abandoned once already prior to my rescue of him and to get through this confusing time without Mom who is usually with him 24/7. Needless to say Rachel was a lifesaver for this unfortunate situation and helped to take a load of worry off. Thank you Rachel I will never forget what you did for my little buddy Bobbie and me.”
“Katelyn was exceptional! Very diligent, good at communicating and Misha loved her! Katelyn is such a sun and thanks to her I feel like i can go on a trip without feeling guilty or worry about my baby boy. Trust that your pet child would be in good hands. ☀️🌻”
“Susan is amazing! She has watched my cat on 2 occasions and each time she has gone above and beyond! She’s a true animal lover and so caring and considerate. I would give 10 stars if I could!”
“Brandon and Nicole were great for watching my two cats. Very responsive and communicative the whole way through. Went above and beyond and sent lots of photos. Thank you for taking care of my kitties!”
About: Hi, I’m Avry! What sets me apart from your average pet sitter is my professional background. I spent over a year working at a local, small business dog daycare and boarding facility, which means your furry family member isn't just getting a companion—they’re getting someone trained in professional pack management, safety protocols, and diverse canine behaviors. I have a deep, lifelong love for all animals and genuinely treat them like human members of the family. Whether your pup needs high-energy playtime or quiet, patient comfort, I adapt completely to their vibe. My Hands-On Expertise Includes: Puppy Prodigy: Patient care and routine-building for the littlest ones. Senior & Special Needs Comfort: Experienced in gentle handling for aging or injured dogs. Medication Management: Confident and precise with oral or topical medical needs. Energy Matching: From exhausting the high-energy athletes to cuddling the low-energy couch potatoes. Reliable & Trusted: I currently manage weekday care for a private family, seamlessly blending their dog's routine into my daily schedule (even bringing them to work with me!). When your pet is with me, they get the structure and safety of a professional handler combined with the cozy, one-on-one affection in their own home. I can't wait to meet your best friend(s)! Because I lead an active and structured life, I thrive on routine—and so do dogs! I don't just 'fit' your pup into my schedule; they become a seamless part of my daily rhythm. Whether I’m working, opening shifts, or running errands, your dog receives dedicated, high-quality attention. I treat my busy days as opportunities for structured walks, mental stimulation, and perfectly timed potty breaks, ensuring your pup is never just waiting around, but actively cared for and loved. Consistency is Key: I mirror your dog's exact feeding, medication, and bathroom schedule, blending it perfectly with my own daily routines. Built-In Companionship: My schedule includes dedicated 'pup-first' blocks for high-energy exercise, structured decompression time, and plenty of belly rubs. On-the-Go Care: With my background, I’m an expert at managing time. Your dog gets a dynamic day filled with attention, not a lonely day waiting by the door. Proactive Communication: Even on my busiest days, you’ll receive regular photo updates and check-ins so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing. Safety isn't a afterthought for me—it's my background. Having spent over a year working in a high-volume dog daycare and boarding facility, I am professionally trained in canine body language, pack management, and emergency safety protocols. I know how to spot the subtle signs of stress, fatigue, or illness before they become issues. Whether administering time-sensitive medication, caring for an injured pup, or supervising playtime, I apply professional facility-grade safety standards to every single pet in my care. You can rest easy knowing your dog is in hands that know exactly what to do in any situation." Quick Bullet Points to Include: Canine Body Language: Professionally trained to read dog behavior and prevent conflicts before they start. Medication & Injury Care: Fully confident and experienced in administering oral/topical medications and managing pups recovering from injuries. Constant Supervision: Pups are never left unattended in situations where safety could be compromised. Open Communication: I provide transparent, honest updates and photos so you are always in the loop.
“Christina was very reliable (even came during huge storms), and very communicative! She also got creative when Snickers (my cat) slowed down eating. I will absolutely use her again.”
“Kaitlin was great! She was happy to play with my puppy and sent me picture updates from her drop ins! My doggo looked very happy and well-taken care of! I would definitely use Kaitlin again in the future!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Belton
About: If you're looking for genuine, dedicated care, look no further! My name is Ryan, and as a full-time, stay-at-home step-dad, I have the inherent flexibility and unwavering devotion to ensure your pets have a comfortable, fun, and personalized stay. With no children of my own, my commitment is complete: I treat every animal I care for as my own child. I recently made the move from California and am using the financial stability created through different ventures to pursue one of my passions: pet sitting. This isn't a job for me; it's a heartfelt side venture, meaning your pet gets my undivided attention during their stay. My goal is simple: for your animals to have the absolute best, most loving experience possible while you're away. Unlike part-time sitters who squeeze visits between other obligations, my schedule is structured around consistent pet care and family time. As a stay at home pet parent, caring for my two Golden Retrievers and cat forms as a constant of my daily routine. This means all walks, feeding times, and play sessions are scheduled with precision and are not subject to outside work conflicts. Whether I am providing in-home boarding or day stays, I am always present and available. I commit to maintaining your pet's exact routine, from specific medication times to late-night potty breaks, ensuring a stable, predictable, and stress-free experience. 1. Trust and Availability Trust is the foundation of my service. As a full-time, stay-at-home sitter, your pet receives genuine, focused attention that is simply unmatched. My flexible schedule means I am not juggling another job; I am fully dedicated to their care. This constant presence allows me to quickly recognize any change in behavior, diet, or health and respond immediately. Please feel free to observe my home environment and my interactions with my two Golden Retrievers and cat. I provide updates, photos, and communication so you always feel connected and assured that your pet is safe and thriving. 2. In My Home (Boarding/Daycare) For in-home boarding, I provide a safe, secure, and pet-proofed environment. My home is designed to be a comfortable, low-stress retreat. Dogs enjoy a consistent routine of feeding, play, and scheduled outdoor time in a fenced yard (with or without my two dogs- preference based). All medications are administered exactly as prescribed and logged. For the safety of everyone, only pets who are current on vaccinations and demonstrate friendly temperaments are accepted. The environment is always low-density, meaning I take a limited number of guests at any time to guarantee that every animal receives the maximum amount of personal attention, love, and care.
“Billie gives such kind, loving care to Ginger. She makes adorably decorated little jars of home made treats for special holidays and is a wonderful caregiver to our senior dog. Her own dog is an easy going older fella himself, and they ignore each other companionable. 😄”
About: Ive been doing Rover now for almost 2 years and it has brought me so much joy and new friends! I worked a summer at kc zoo and it was the most fun job I have ever had. I've had dogs and cats my whole life. Also around horses from my uncle. I have adopted all of my animals from shelters. I love my dogs and cats like they are family. I have a teenage son I have to keep out of petco or any other animal place otherwise he wants to bring all the animals home, joking but not completely untrue. It's how we ended up with our Kitty Maisey. We even took care of the class's bearded dragon over spring break during Covid. He will come along on visits if available as he is the animal whisperer and wants to be a vet. Our 2 dogs are Dottie (our adopted covid pointer mix pup who is the sweetest girl and loves to have visitors to play with), and Marley who is our very sweet, laid back senior dog. Both our pups were rescues. Marley is afraid of thunderstorms and fireworks so we sre familliar with giving medications and making dogs feel safe and comfortable. Dottie is allergic to something during the late summer and September month and takes medicine for that allergy at that time. We believe in treats but only rawhide free and dental bones. Please bring your own food and treats and let me know if you prefer not to share our treats. We also have 2 cats that are used to dogs and in fact think that each dog is their mommy since we got them as kittens and have an attachment to their respective dog mommy. You will even find cats and dogs snuggling together on the bed. Or Moose playing with Dottie in his tunnel. I have had animals with special needs from a diabetic cat that I gave insulin injections to treating animals with special needs. I live right down the street from a great dog park here in belton. We would love to take any new friends to visit. Please let me know if you prefer them not to go to the dog park and we can stay here and play. We have a fenced back yard but one side is only 4 ft. I work from home as a director so I have a very flexible schedule. My son does play competitive soccer so sometimes weekends have us at soccer field for about 2 hours. I have a fenced yard 3 sides are 6 foot privacy and one has a 4 foot chain link. I follow my client's care directions in their homes.
“My GRIM just stayed with Aubrey today and I am not waiting to write a review! I am so so happy he got to experience a great play day with her and her dog after our last experience with another sitter a few weeks ago. I will definitely be reaching out to Aubrey every time I need a sitter from now on! She had no issues watching my pitbull breed. She fed him and gave me the food back that he didn’t eat instead of leaving me wondering how much he had ate. She sent me multiple pictures throughout the day. She had all of his stuff ready to go when I got there to pick him up. She had a clean and very spacious fenced back yard for them to run around in all day. She and her family were very friendly and welcoming. I could not have asked for anything more!”
About: I haven't dog sat previously, but I have owned a dog since I was a little kid. I know the ins and outs of taking care ofa pe. I currently have a full-time job, so I would care for your pet on weekends, holidays, or some early mornings. If known in advance I can try and take some time off to care for your pet if needed more than just weekends. I have a fenced back yard, with 3 friendly dogs that would keep your pup busy! I also have extra kennels if your pet must be kenneled!
“I can't thank Griffin enough for taking care of my dog on such short notice. They were incredibly accommodating and provided excellent care. Highly recommended!"”
“Kelci was a fantastic sitter for our puppy. As soon as you meet her you can sense her genuine love for animals. They took such great care of Winston and we could tell he was comfortable with their family and other pets when we came to pick him up. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands with lots of space to play! We will definitely be choosing Kelci again!”
About: I have had pets since I was a child, so I am very familiar with their needs, behavior and the care they require. I am a responsible, affectionate and patient person, and I always make sure that pets feel safe, comfortable and well taken care of. In addition, I also have experience taking care of children, which has helped me develop my patience, attention and sense of responsibility even more. I like to treat each pet with love and care, as if it were part of my own family. 🐾 I work only four days a week and usually get home early, so I have plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. I have had pets since I was a child, so I am very familiar with their needs and the affection they require. In my daily routine I always include time to play with them, feed them and make sure they are comfortable and well taken care of. Many friends trust me and bring me their pets when they need help, which has also given me experience taking care of different animals and adapting to their needs. 🐾 I offer pet care during the night in my home or at the owner's house, making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well taken care of. It includes food on time, walks if necessary, playtime, company during the night and a lot of attention and affection. I always follow the routine and instructions of the owner so that the pet feels as calm as possible. My goal is for the owners to have peace of mind knowing that their pet is in good hands and receiving care as if it were part of my family. 🐶🐱
“Great communications (several check ins, including picture) to let me know my mini goldendoodle Enzo was settling in with the other dogs and doing well during his first day. Enzo was calm and confident when I picked him up - indicating it was a good experience for him too :) Thanks!”
“This is the first time our golden retriever has stayed anywhere without us so we were a little nervous. I think Ellie had a a great time. She was happy and tired when she got home. She looked to be having fun in the pictures Katie sent. Katie and her husband were so friendly and welcoming I won’t hesitate to use them again.”
About: I’ve spent my entire life caring for and loving animals. I was farm raised so my love for animals stretches beyond just cats and dogs. I have had experience with all ages of animals from newborns to seniors in their last stages of life. In the last few years I’ve fostered many animals in hopes of giving them a second chance at life. My pets are my family and I’ll ensure your pets feel welcome and safe with me too! I work from home allowing me to be with the pets almost all the time. I am able to accommodate almost any food or potty schedule, helping pets feel less stressed and in a familiar routine. I have a large fenced yard and two very sweet dogs to keep your pets entertained. We also have a cat who sticks to herself but who also isn’t afraid of new animals. We have 3 children from age 8-16. I can accommodate most schedules including feedings, walking, potty breaks, medicines or any other special needs that your pet might have. Do not hesitate to ask if your pet has special diets, treatments or routines to see if we can make it work.
“Ryan was awesome. I especially liked when he sent videos of my dog and he gave me a report of how my dog responded to other dogs and his behavior in general. Ryan is also very proactive with the pets that he is caring for.”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 11 years old . Neighbors , friends and family have relied on me to care for their pets . I have two children and they share the same love and care that I have for pets. Me and my family will make sure your pet has all the attention and love it needs. I currently work from home so I will have the flexibility to spend time with your pet and take him to potty breaks as often as needed. I have a fenced backyard where your pet can run freely, there is a park with a little lake close to my house we’re I take daily walks twice a day after meals. I believe it’s important for you to know that I sometimes book up to two pets at the same time.
“Sarah and family were so warm and inviting! They treated our dog like one of their own. We have planned for him to stay an entire week with them when we are away on vacation. We trust them fully!”
“Joy has watched rocket a few times now but this was the longest stay yet! I am so grateful that she was able to watch rocket and show her so much love. It is a lot easier leaving her knowing she is getting so much love and attention from Joy!”

About: I have been working with animals of all kinds since I was a teen. Between working at pet stores and kennels, plus the zoo I have at my house. I provide invaluable experience and professionalism. I work for a school, and we are out during the summer. So I have a lot of extra time on my hands for the next few months to give care to pets. In a client's home, I take care to make sure that nothing gets disturbed. In the past, I always scanned to make sure that nothing was broken or eaten. I always make sure there are no potty messes or hairballs, and I clean them up if there are. I also always make sure to message the owners if anything seems out of the usual. Updates on eating, potty, and litter habits. And of course, if they get into anything or have accidents.
“Derek was a Godsend during the recent snow storm and sub zero temperatures. He came over and took Cooper for a potty walk twice a day despite the adverse conditions. He was punctual, thorough and dependable. And the best part was, he was obviously a dog person. Cooper loved him and would wait patiently by the door for Derek to arrive. He showed concern for Cooper’s wellbeing at each visit. I would 100% book him again. Thanks Derek!”

I’m on my summer break before college so I have plenty of time to care for your pups and cats! I love going for long walks and runs on trails or around the neighborhood. Before walking or dog sitting a new dog, I like to know a bit about their personalities and how energetic they are.

“Kristy and her family were awesome! My two pups were very well socialized with all of her pets, even my anxious girl became comfortable and seemed to enjoy her stay. Kristy gave them both special attention, even making them scrambled eggs one morning, and letting them cozy up on her bed. You can tell she is a true dog lover and understands what they need. She gave me lots of updates and photos to put my mind at ease!”
