“Ashley was absolutely wonderful with our pup! She watched her for 10 whole days, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She communicated so well throughout her stay and sent us tons of pictures and updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away for that long. It was clear from the pictures that she felt completely at home with Ashley and her sweet family. She looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. And honestly, now that she’s home, she almost seems a little sad to be back 😂 which tells me she had a really good time! Ashley went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and loved, and we are so grateful. I would absolutely trust her with our pup again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family! ❤️”
“Our first time using Rover and leaving our Sadie for a long period of time! Michelle was AMAZING!!! She sent pictures of Sadie all week and updates to calm my nerves while we were away! Sadie had the best time and could tell she was well taken care of and loved while we were away! My heart was at ease while in Michelle’s home/care! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!!! You were a blessing!”
“Max got attached to Ms Heather during his stay, which is exactly what we hoped to see. He was happy to be home but in great spirits. So nice to have a safe and friendly environment to leave him in while out of town.”
“First time booking with the Yowells. We received daily updates on the dogs with pictures. Everything went great and we are very thankful (especially surprised they took our dogs for walks!). We will definitely be repeat customers in the future.”
“I can not say enough great things about Wendy. This was my first time leaving my Millie with someone or even being away from her for longer then 2 days and Wendy made it so easy for me. I had so much peace knowing she was caring for my dog. She sent me pictures, videos, and updates consistently. It made me feel so good knowing she was in such great hands. Millie loved being with her. She was even sad leaving her. Wendy is the only one I will ever trust my girl with. Millie loved her and so do I. If you need someone who truly cares and loves pets, Wendy is the one to go with. You will love her. She is kind, patient, and so loving. She has such a welcoming home. Highly recommend!!!!”
“Angelo has become my first choice for a sitter for my boys. I don't worry about them at all when they stay with him. He is fantastic at staying in touch and I feel like he takes his responsibility seriously while enjoying the time he spends with his charges. Thank you, Angelo!!!”
“Angela was a blessing! We were gone for 10 days and being new to the area we were so worried about leaving our pups. She took the very best care of our pups and they seemed very happy when we picked them up! We will definitely used Angela again and we highly recommend her. She is very loving and experienced and we could not be more pleased.”
“Kolohe granted was happy to see her mama, but when I tell you on the way out of Becky and Joel's neighborhood she cried. I think we have found our new awesome pet sitters. Thank You guys she obviously enjoyed herself cause she's never cried leaving from anyone's house before. And since we now have a family I can trust with her bipolar self, she will be going back. Probably sooner than thought since we can now go on a honeymoon in Oct after our wedding.”
“Every time we need to have someone watch our dog, Thi is our first choice. The photo updates we get daily without having to ask is the best, and we can see how much our dog loves her!”
“Amy and her family were so great. They made Bear part of their family. We got pictures and videos almost every day. We did not worry about him and enjoyed our time away. 10 out of 10. Recommend 100% Many thanks to them!!!”
“Dana is the BEST!!!! I feel so fortunate to have found her. I never worry about my pups when she’s watching them and she sends cute pics while I’m away. This is the second time I’ve Dana has pet sit for me and I will never use anyone else if Dana is available! Love her!!!”
“Synamon and Chris took excellent care of Blue Bell and sent pics so we wouldn’t worry about her. She was clearly happy and comfortable when we picked her up. We’ll definitely board with them again!”
“My pets stay with Vivian was amazing. She was very responsive the entire process, from booking to pickup. She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on how the cats were settling in! A week away was hard but knowing my babies were in good hands made it easier.”
“Frankie was very well taken care of with Yoanna and her family! He was happy and tired (in a good way) when we picked him up. Yoanna did a great job of sharing updates and photos throughout the stay. Her dog is also a sweetie. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Rover newbie here. Had an awesome first time experience. Lori was great and her 3 wiener dogs were adorable too. I think Pandak misses them ?. Appreciate the picture she sent during his stay. Highly recommended”
“Thank you Susan for your special care and boarding our Burley during our short vacation trip. Burley enjoyed staying with you and came home very happy and playful.”

“Dana was very attentive. She even brought in the mail. I could tell from the pics she sent that my kitty was calm and relaxed with her. I will definitely schedule her again!”
“Tatum is excellent! I ask for lots of updates & she keeps the photos rolling in. Our cats struggle with separation anxiety (& maybe so do I) but we all do better when she stays. She leaves the house super clean as well. Highly recommend!”
“Holly was an absolute delight and went out of her way to familiarize herself with my cats and their routines. I felt relieved and comforted that she not only attended my cats’ basic needs but also doted on them each time she visited. She kept in excellent communication with me and made my day by sharing adorable, candid pics of my fur babies. Would absolutely use her again.”
“Maddie was amazing with my cats. Even with my shy one that would hide under the bed during the visits, Maddie made sure to check on her. My cats are simple to care for but it means a lot to know that Maddie keep up on the litter box and full communication with text and photos while me and my husband were away.”
“Thi was great! She kept us up to date with each of her check ins with how our babies were doing and any changes in mood or behavior. Her pictures were amazing and we got to see our kitty playing and enjoying herself during the check ins. Our kitty loved her!”
“Jesika did a great job taking care of my two kitties. She was very easy to communicate with and was very detailed and thorough. I appreciated the pictures she sent and my cats were doing great when I came back!”
“Talisa was amazing with my cats. She took such great care of them and from the pictures she sent it seems like they absolutely adore her! Great communication and always on time. Highly recommend!”
“Ava was wonderful. Perfect match for what I needed. She was always on time, followed all instructions, kept everything spotless, and sent daily updates and pictures. I now have a sitter that I can trust and absolutely will be using her in the future. I would highly recommend her as your next pet sitter.”
“Evan was fantastic! Super kind, detailed in her daily assessment of my cat, and left my place just as she found it. My cat really enjoyed his time with her as well!!! Super thankful for Evan!”
“Cierra was great! She accepted a last minute request to check in on my pups and did an excellent job making sure they were happy and cared for. Very happy with her sitting services!!!”
“Rena was great. Tucker my kitty just loved her. She is reliable and attentive to him and followed the instructions I left. When I met Rena, we talked cats and she is definitely a cat lover, Tucker could tell. I highly recommend her to watch over your fur babies. I will definitely call her again when I have to go out of town.”
About: I nearly constantly had cats while growing up - our house never felt complete without a cat in it 😺 Until recently, I hadn't had a cat in many years for a variety of reasons and settled for feeding the outdoor cats wherever I lived and rescuing and re-homing any strays. However, I stumbled upon a sweet, stray, tortie kitten last Fall and won her trust. I was able to bring her home and she has wiggled and purred her way into the whole family's hearts 💖 I love cats with my entire heart and will do anything I possibly can to keep them happy, healthy and safe. A neighbor, whom I had never met before, flagged me down Spring of 2024 and asked if I could help her catch a Momma cat and two kittens in her bushes. I took on the job and spent the majority of the day out in the rain catching these babies. Caught the kittens that day and the Momma later on that night and reunited them all at Animal Control the next day. I confirmed beforehand that they had the space for the kitties and for them to please call if they weren't adopted after they were made available. This has been a bit long winded and all over the place, but the point is, I LOVE CATS and I would love to care for your cat or cats while you are away. They will be greatly loved 💖
About: I have been a cat owner and caregiver for over 25 years and have cared for six cats with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and care needs. This experience has taught me how to recognize and adapt to each cat’s unique preferences, whether they are playful and social, shy and independent, or require extra patience and attention. Cats have always been an important part of my family’s life, and we truly can’t imagine our home without them. I understand how much pets mean to their owners, and I am committed to providing the same love, care, and attention to your cats that I give my own.
“Excellent and professional provider. My dog was happy and she followed the schedule. I will be using her again this was so convenient and allowed my elder dog to stay in his home where he is more comfortable.”

“Bear had so much fun and treats during her stay with Thi. Thi and her husband is such a lovely, caring and passionate couple. They took wonderful pictures of Bear that really impressed me. She updated me everything that happened during Bear’s stay, this proves her dedication for caring and loving Bear.

“So good to be able to leave your puppy with someone that you know is going to play with them and take them on walks and I don’t have stress about it when I’m gone :-) thanks Ashley”
“It was just a one-day visit, but everything seems to have gone perfectly. My Raz got to meet some new puppy friends and came home ready for a big old nap! Her place is clean, safe, and well set-up for hosting pets including the fenced back yard. I'm giving five stars and highly recommend Elizabeth for the La Marque/General Galveston, TX area.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs ever since I was in elementary school! As a parent of three kids and a dog owner, caring for pups with lots of love is just a natural part of our daily life. My kids love animals so much that they’re already begging for a second dog! In fact, growing up with our dog inspired my daughter to want to become a vet. Our whole family truly adores dogs. Whether it’s energetic walks, cozy couch snuggles, or sticking to their usual routine, I’ll treat your pup just like one of our own! Pet care is a core part of our daily family routine. Since we have our own dog, our mornings and evenings are naturally built around walks, feeding, and play time. I occasionally step out for a few hours for work, but our schedule is very flexible. I always make sure guest dogs get plenty of exercise and affection before and after I leave, fitting seamlessly into our happy, active household. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In our home, we offer a safe, clean, and welcoming environment with a secure yard for fun playtime. Before hosting any guest dog, I always arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they get along well with our family and our own dog. During their stay, I keep a close eye on them, sticking strictly to their feeding and exercise routines, as well as any health or house rules provided by the owner. Whether at our home or yours, I make sure every pet feels secure, loved, and treated like family!
“Tiffany is awesome! We are repeat customers and would recommend Tiffany to anyone! She is very responsive and sends pics of your pets throughout their stay. We know she gives our 2 dogs (Weimaraner & Golden) lots of love and attention putting our minds at ease when we have to be away.”
“Michelle was very nice and had great communication. She sent many pics and videos, which I love. My dog is very energetic and can be a lot and seemed to get along with her dog. Definitely would recommend”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely outstanding! Angelo is incredibly trustworthy, caring, and professional. He gave us complete peace of mind for our very first time boarding our dogs, giving us updates with photos and videos. The flexibility is unmatched — always work with my schedule and are more than accommodating when plans change especially for any last minute delays. Communication is excellent, and it’s clear he genuinely loves what he does. My dog and puppy were so excited, happy and well cared for. I couldn’t recommend him more highly!”
“Timothy helped us today when we were in a bind at 4:30am to find a sitter for our dog Bullet. And it worked out for us. Thank You Timothy and by the pictures it looked like Bullet enjoyed it. Timothy had great communication with us. Thank You”
About: No special skills, just a guy who loves animals and will help you take care of yours while you're away or need a break. Ive always had a pet in the house for the most part and have always watched friends and family pets often. Figured I may as well see if anyone wants a trustworthy pet sitter! I'm a stay at home husband who takes care of 3 cats currently and taking care of more pets would be no trouble. So pet care is just part of my everyday amyway I have a large fenced in yard, as well as a 3000sq ft home with plenty of rooms and space if your pet wants open areas, plenty of space if they need space. All dogs get atleast 1 walk a day(2 if it isnt 90+degrees). I feed my own pets twice a day 12hours a part. However am I will to feed your pets on any schedule they normally would have at home
About: I have had pets my whole life ranging from cats to birds to fish. I also love dogs and so does my 9 year old daughter and my husband. I have cared for family members, neighbors and friends animals (cats and dogs) for many years. My cat is 19 years old and I have also had to say goodbye to my baby, Daphnie who I had from the time she was a baby until she passed away, and my other baby Willow, who we rescued when we lived in Hawaii and was a part of our family for about 10 years. I am therefore familiar with senior care for animals. I’ve administered oral, topical and iv meds (yes I did that home with one of my cats near the end of her life). I love to walk and run and have always enjoyed taking dogs for a walk when I’ve cared for the pets of others. I have even cared for a few rowdy young dogs that were still in puppy training school. I have been pet sitting on River for about 3 years. I’ve done many drop in visits, boarding and dog walks for my clients. I am currently a home maker so I have a flexible schedule to care for your babies. Most weeks I am able to do mornings, mid day and evenings I have a fenced in yard. I have one cat, who has been around dogs, lived with a dog and is used to the occasional dog being boarded in our home. He is fine with dogs as long as the dogs are calm towards him. I would not be able to host in my home any very young dogs that may want to “play” with my cat as he is older and also has no interest in being friends with a dog. He is very non-aggressive and tends to mostly avoid them whenever I board.
“Susan took great care of our Quinn. Quinn has separation anxiety so couldn't be left alone while we attended an evening event. It worked out perfectly to drop her off for a few hours with Susan and her family. So nice to be able to enjoy the evening worry-free!”

About: I’ve been an owner and sitter of dogs and cats for 10 years. With that, I have experience walking, playing, bathing, and feeding. Most of all I love being around animals and making sure I provide them with love and care. I am currently a full time pet sitter and love every second of it! I am available most times during the week, whether you need someone to drop-in for a walk or stay with your fur baby full time. In a clients home and at my home I am very attentive to what the animal may need. Play time, food, water bowl and anything else.
“Thi was awesome with my pup and it was so easy to communicate with her. She was flexible and helpful and made sure my babies were well taken care of. Will definitely use her again!”
About: ❗️If your house has any signs of fleas, do not book with me.❗️I have always grown up with pets in my house hold, i have always token care of them when no one else did and gave them the love they deserve. We are with them their entire lives, while they are with us for only a portion. I will be gentle and patient with them until they gained my trust. I can bathe them and play with them too, i cannot groom though. But i can make them smell all yummy! College student! I do go to college all year, even in the summer! I don’t have an outside job, so the only thing taking me away from your furry family is school! I’m always open and i can always get to your fur baby’s when needed! I have 1 doggy of my own and she has fear aggression towards other people and dogs, i’ve learned to work around her personality and to go forward. I bathe my dog by hand inside my home every 1-2 months (depends on if she gets dirty, she’s got a self-cleaning coat) and she gets fed every night! (she eats at her own pace so i just top off her bowls) She is trained to sit, paw, talk, wait, and lay down! She is my first daughter and my soul dog! I love her to death!!
About: I’ve owned dogs since as long as I can remember! I’ve owned Golden Retrievers, Boxers, and now I have an American Pitbull Terrier/German Sheppard and they are the sweetest dogs ever!! I have a little experience in dog training (sit, shake, high five, etc). However I have always loved taking my dogs on walks or just playing with them outside!! I’m currently in nursing school so I have a few free days that I would love to be able to take time to myself (which of course means being with dogs!!) on the days I’m off of school. I do also work a few days a month for 12+ hours a day. I am always willing to play with dogs though!! I have a huge fenced yard that is extremely plain (no pool, no plants). I also have a large temperature controlled garage that they can play in! We have a slow feeder if needed, water bowls, food containers, dog toys, and a kennel!
“Mia was great! I had never had someone walk my dog and was a little nervous. She made me feel super comfortable. She took some great pictures along the way! We will be using her again!”
“I cannot recommend Eva enough! From the very beginning, she has been incredibly professional, reliable, and genuinely caring toward my dog. It’s clear that she doesn’t just see this as a job—she truly loves what she does. She is very diligent and thoughtful during her visits, always making sure my dog is well cared for and comfortable. Her communication is excellent, and she is always warm, pleasant, and easy to interact with. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my dog is in such capable and kind hands. Highly recommend!!”
About: I take on caring for sweet puppers in my spare time. I am a stay-at-home-mom to three sweet boys, 6 and under, and we love to play with pups and go on walks with them 💖 My partner, Travis, will help care for your furry friend if I must run an errand while your dog stays with us, but I will be the primary caregiver. It is very rare that we are all out of the home at the same time, and if so, it is never for long. I am comfortable administering medication as needed. I can care for any breed, however, some I cannot watch in my own home. I love tiny floofs, big lap dogs and everything in between. I have had a number of pets throughout my life and have loved every second of being around them. Pets are an important part to any family, big or small, and we look forward to looking after your pups and ensuring a safe, loving environment for them to thrive in while you are away. Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing from you and your pup! 💖 -Tara I am currently a stay-at-home-mom to three boys, 6 and under, so I am almost always home to hang out with kids and pups! The boys LOVE to go for walks, so we have no shortage of outside time - weather permitting. Pups receive regular walks, water breaks and lots of love and pets. We will pay careful attention to things owners mention like putting trash cans high-up and keeping our furry friends away from other dogs.
About: Animals have always been a passion of mine, and i’ve always found a way to be around them whether it’s volunteering at animal shelters to interning at wildlife refuges. In college I interned at a wildlife center in Texas where I was a caretaker for many exotic species such as ostriches, emus, lynxes, and pheasants, I’ve always been the go to person for taking care of pets within my community. It started with me taking care of my aunt’s dogs while she was away, to my aunt’s neighbor’s dogs, to dogs of my professors, and so on. However, I began to professionally pet sit in 2018 receiving most of my clients through word of mouth. Through moving to New York city, I lost the network that I built back home. Through pet sitting I gained experience for caring for dogs, cats, and even birds. I also have knowledge in caring for animals with special needs and administering medication to animalsof all ages and sizes. I love to play and run around with dogs, so they will definitely be in for a workout! I would love to be able to provide the love and care that your dog needs and deserves while you’re away from home. I’m currently working varied hours, so my schedule can be flexible to your pets! No time is too early for me to rise to ensure that your pet’s routine is maintained. My number one goal is to ensure that your pet is comfortable in their own home. This means maintaining their schedule, reassuring their social needs, and most of all giving them love. I will do safety checks throughout the day to ensure harmful objects are out of reach. As a pet sitter, it’s important to provide a trustworthy and reliable service. While you’re gone, your pet will be undergoing a stressful time. So although you may not be present, it's important that your pet’s day to day life remains the same.During this time they’ll also receive love and nurturing. Communication is key during your time away, so you should expect a daily update on how your pet is doing. Lastly, I only take one client at a time to ensure that I can spend ample time with your pet.

I currently offer: • Dog walking • Drop-in visits • Cat care You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members! As a newly certified elementary school teacher, I have summers off and a schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for pets. During the school year, I’m usually home by 4:30 PM and available evenings, weekends, and school holidays. I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same care and attention I give my own. Me, my husband, and our 2 teenage kids live on a one-acre property with lots of open space. While the yard is not fenced, it’s a great environment for supervised outdoor time. We have a friendly, high-energy dog named Zoey, two indoor cats, and two outdoor cats who join us inside during the winter months.
About: I grew up helping take care of the family pets; we had cats, dogs, fish, & rabbits! I’ve always loved taking care of pets and will never say no to an opportunity to meet new ones :) I have experience taking care of: cats, dogs, fish, turtles, rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, & hamsters. I have experience medicating, feeding, and basic grooming. I routinely check for potential hazards and remove them from the environment. I’m currently unemployed due to the turbulent job market, so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets. When I’m not home taking care of my own animals, I’m out looking for work or a new place to volunteer. I’m always making sure there’s no choking hazards on my pets toys & making sure their water & food are always topped off. They always get extra love & brushing at the end of the day. (And maybe a couple extra treats if they’ve been good)
“I cannot recommend Neysha enough! She is SO wonderful and patient with my energetic puppy, Sandy. It was hard to leave Sandy to go back to work, but Neysha made it so much easier. She takes her for walks, runs, to dog park and even gives her a massage to calm her down when needed! If your pet is in need of a kind, knowledgeable, fun companion, Neysha is the right person for you. We just love her.”

About: I have always had great experiences with dogs of all shape and size. From puppy liters to great danes. They all enjoy a good ear rub and belly scratch. I also have a family member that runs a boutique petfood/supply store and gives us all the inside info on the best foods and snacks to feed our fur babies. Pets always get the snacks and head scratches in the morning and evening. I always make sure they get attention and exercise they need for the day. I have fenced in yard, 2 crates available, LG and Med. We have NO CATS, I only host 1 family at a time. Only 2 pups at a time, must meet mine at neutral location: city park/dog Park.

“Ashley was absolutely wonderful with our pup! She watched her for 10 whole days, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She communicated so well throughout her stay and sent us tons of pictures and updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away for that long. It was clear from the pictures that she felt completely at home with Ashley and her sweet family. She looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. And honestly, now that she’s home, she almost seems a little sad to be back 😂 which tells me she had a really good time! Ashley went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and loved, and we are so grateful. I would absolutely trust her with our pup again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family! ❤️”
“Max got attached to Ms Heather during his stay, which is exactly what we hoped to see. He was happy to be home but in great spirits. So nice to have a safe and friendly environment to leave him in while out of town.”
“I can not say enough great things about Wendy. This was my first time leaving my Millie with someone or even being away from her for longer then 2 days and Wendy made it so easy for me. I had so much peace knowing she was caring for my dog. She sent me pictures, videos, and updates consistently. It made me feel so good knowing she was in such great hands. Millie loved being with her. She was even sad leaving her. Wendy is the only one I will ever trust my girl with. Millie loved her and so do I. If you need someone who truly cares and loves pets, Wendy is the one to go with. You will love her. She is kind, patient, and so loving. She has such a welcoming home. Highly recommend!!!!”

Every day, he takes them for walks, showering them with love and attention, while keeping us updated with adorable photos and videos.

You’re simply the best!”
“This was our second time entrusting my beloved poodles, Coco and Pluto to the care of Emily and I cant express enough how delighted I am with the care they received. She is a true gem when it comes to looking after our furry babies. Communication is key and Emily consistently provided updates and photos during her time with Coco and Pluto. It was heartwarming to receive these messages and know that they were happy, healthy and well taken care of. I highly recommend Emily to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring and reliable dog sitter and look forward to using her services again in the near future.”

“I had such a great experience with my Skylar! She took amazing care of my pup while I was away and made me feel totally at ease. She sent regular updates and photos, which meant so much and helped me relax knowing he was happy and well looked after.

“Luna loves going to Estephania and her lovely kids ❤️ Estephania always sends me text messages and pictures of how my Luna is behaving and what she’s doing, which is wonderful!”
“I had an excellent experience with Johnny! He was incredibly friendly, kept me updated with great communication throughout my dog's stay, and made me feel completely at ease. It was clear my dog was well cared for and treated with kindness. The biggest sign of how wonderful the experience was? My dog came home happy, relaxed, and with absolutely no anxiety (like he usually does at other boarding places). I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust him to care for my dog again. Highly recommend!”
