“Nancy and Santa were absolutely amazing with my girl, Coca Cola! 🐶 They went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and comfortable during her stay. I loved that they sent me constant photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. At the end of the stay, they even provided a thoughtful doggy report card – such a sweet touch! It’s clear they are not only caring but also very knowledgeable when it comes to pups. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving sitters to watch their fur babies. Thank you both so much!”
“Keliann provided great times and care to Ginger over the holiday weekend! She sent lots of pics and stayed in communication as well as providing flexibility for our later than expected pickup. Thank you lots!”
“Mikal was wonderful! She immediately put me at ease as I was very anxious about leaving my dogs. Ranger and Olivia loved her and were very at ease in her home! The daily pictures let me know that all was well. I highly recommend her!”
“Ashley is amazing! Great communication, and she sent us a bunch of photos! My lab got to spend her first birthday at Camp Ashley, swimming, running and playing! Could it be any better? I think she’s going to sleep for the next few days to recover! Thanks for all your personal touches Ashley, we know Kallie was well-loved. ❤️”
“Ocean was so sweet and flexible when we had some plans change. Our pups were at ease and comfortable with her. We definitely recommend her services and would use her again!”
“Hamlets is so amazing, they love dogs and it shows. I love how she keeps us updated and posts pictures. Your dog will get so spoiled they won’t want to come home. We have used her two times now and have no regrets!!”
“Lacey was absolutely wonderful! We were originally keeping Simba with her for 3 weeks but had to extend due to unforeseen circumstances. She took really good care of him, and was very punctual and regular in sharing updates and pictures of simba. We were very pleased with her care for simba and will continue with her as our first choice for simba when we need to go out of town. Her pups made simbas stay more lively and engaged and helped reduce his anxiety of being away from home.”
“I had a great experience and would highly recommend Shang! He took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay by sending pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and well cared for. My dog had a great time, and I could tell he was treated with lots of attention and care. I would definitely use their services again!”
“Ashley was very attentive to my 15 1/2 year-old miniature pincher. She provided Updates every day with PHOTOS. Chicago was very happy staying with Ashley. Looking forward to using her in the future.”
“Could not have been better. We got delayed and they offered to keep our critters longer. Great communication and updates. My new permanent dog sitters. Great people”
“We are so thankful we found Portia! Portia was very caring and professional. She went above and beyond by giving us photo updates and picking up Goldie! We definitely will reach out again!”
“Eva & Kallven have watched my Tyson 3 times in the last month. Each time I had no worries about him when I left, as I could tell he was well taken care of and given lots of love. So glad to have found them, they are the best dog sitters I’ve found this far. Will connote to use them as long as they continue to provide the service.”
“Ms. Janell is great as always. She is so caring for my energetic golden doodle. I always know that Jaxon will be taken care of when he’s with her!”
“This was our first time using Chayanne to watch our miniature schnauzer Pluto. We were very pleased. She kept us updated on his progress with photos and video. I recommend her to take care of your pet. We definitely will be using her again.”
“HUSKY APPROVED!! I received constant communication along with photos. He was patient and kind with her that when she was dropped off she wanted to go with him! She went for frequent and long walks with his other dog so she made a best friend! Thank you, Rolland! I will be reaching out to you for doggy daycare!”
“Gobi had a great time with Neel, Geetika and Keya. We got constant updates about him with pictures and videos. He also got to Harry new treats to celebrate international pet day. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him. We truly appreciate it. We will surely be requesting a stay again.”
“Ariel took excellent care of my Bailey, so glad to have made the connection. I appreciated Ariel for sending pictures and updates without asking, definitely made me feel comfortable knowing he was in great hands and will book again!!”
“Janna is the BEST! My fur baby was happy to come home but she was not anxious at all when we picked her up. She is a 10 year old escape artist and Janna kept her well exercised and happy. She had her for a week with no problems. We will be using her for all of our vacations from now on.”
“Reagan and her family did an excellent job taking care of our 2 dogs while we went on a post Christmas family vacation. Their attention to detail and care they took was second to none. We greatly appreciate it and we know we have a great, trustworthy option to care for our other kids in the future! 😁”

About: Potty trained from birth is a crazy stat line to have. The purr you get from rubbing and scratching on just the right spot is music to my ears. I love cats and playing with their toys even entertains me. That said, Clean litter boxes are a must not only for our smelling, but for their liking.
About: I've taken care of animals for the past 12 years for clients and friends of mine. Their animals always took to me really well with me being around them so often and showing them love, so they began asking me if I could pet sit for them. I also have a 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits and chickens. I am a stay at home mom that homeschools so my schedule is very flexible. Let me know your preferences and we can work something out. I can administer medication if needed also. I have experience giving insulin shots. I show them love and affection, let them out to go potty and play with them before I put them back up. I follow detailed instructions
“Breana took great care of our two cats while we were gone. She knew how to work with the cats, giving them attention, and attending to their needs. We really appreciate all her help as we hate to leave our sweet boys, and felt comforted to have her care for them!”
About: I've had cats for as long as I can remember and have plenty of experience handling them from as young as 6 weeks to as old as 17. I currently have a semi-feral tabby, so I've gotten pretty good at reading body language in order to not get swatted 😅.
“Wonderful with my babies. Keliann took care of food water and potty, and gave my demanding Milo attention lol. And was patient with shy Mystery. We will hire her again for our babies. Thank you!”
“Jayleene was a huge relief for us going on vacation and leaving our cats. She updated us both visits when she got there. We have one cat that doesn’t really care to be social and our other one is the social butterfly. Her son came along and in the photos, he looked so happy and Mikasa was being so sweet with him. Thank you so much. Will definitely be using her services again!”

She followed all my instructions, shows up when scheduled, and always checks in with an update. I know my pup loves seeing her when she comes by. Will be using Kenna whenever we need someone!”

About: I’ve had animals all my life big and small ! I can medicate your fur baby if needed. I worked at an animal clinic for 6 years. I’d like to earn some extra money doing something I really enjoy like caring for animals. Even if it’s just feeding/playing/checking up on them for you. Currently I can not do many weekdays. But weekends are best for me at the moment. I have two large dogs and a 1 kitty cat. I understand how hard it can be to find someone to trust with your fur babies. I am here to tell u i can be that person who can cuddle with your adorable furbaby if you’re at work or on vacation. I Promise to show your babies so much love while im taking care of them. Weekend is when I am available for check in and walks. Shoot me a message to see what times work for you. I could do some week days only morning and afternoon check in with feedings but no walks at the moment. I pay lots of close attention to your baby while making sure they feel safe in my presence. I will give them space if needed or play with them until we are both tired. So please let me know what activities they enjoy.
About: *After your first successful booking with me, I lock in your rates for all future bookings so your rate stays low as my loyal customer, even if I raise my rates later. Regularly care for my own dog (beautiful lab/pit mix) and have had dogs (& other pets) all of my life. I love the bond shared between me and my pets and that experience that I get to pass along to my children, who are helping care for our senior dog. Our pets have always been part of our family, and I will treat your pet & home with the same attention and care that I have always shown to my own. The world needs more love and respect -- certainly among us as humans -- and I believe our pets can teach us that lesson every day if we're willing to see it.
About: Hello! Growing up, I always wanted a cat. Unfortunately, my mother was highly allergic to them. It wasn't until I moved out that I got my first baby, Cati or Cat. She was my best friend! I also currently have an inside cat who I received on a rescue basis when she was barely a week old. I have experience with bottle feeding kittens and with grown cats.
About: My name is Payton, we live in a house with a half acre back yard. I am a stay at home mom, so we will have tons of time for actives and attention. We have an 8 year old Husky named Ridge, he is very sweet and LOVES other dogs. Ridge loves to run, so we spend most of our days playing in the yard, taking walks in our quiet neighborhood or going for an easy hike with our daughters. I also have experience in the Veterinary field for those who have pups with special needs (medications, special dietary restrictions, etc.). We also have a very lax orange cat named Jack, who is very good with other animals. I am a stay at home mama to my little ones, so I am home with your pups all day to play and tend to whatever they may need. We have 1 dog in the house, a very lazy husky named Ridge. He absolutely loves other dogs and will play relentlessly with any dogs. We do also have 1 cat, Jack. He is very tolerant and calm. We have a half acre yard with plenty of space for frolicking and play time. We do also love to go to the dog park in the evenings when it’s not so hot. I am very attentive to all the pets in my home. Both my animals are very relaxed but get their share of romping time! I will make sure your dog gets all the love and affection they could possibly need as well as feeding and potty breaks.
About: Need someone who is truly obsessed with animals? Look no further, you've found your person! Growing up, and even to this day, animals have always been a part of the family. My love for animals has grown immensely over the years and I have fulfilled my dream of graduating with a bachelors in Animal Science. I have grown up with many dogs all my life, and spent a lot of time watching neighbors dogs as well as close friends and families. I have been in the pet industry since 2014 and continue to grow as a pet care provider. Whatever you need and want done for your baby, I can provide! I am a full time middle school teacher with a passion for animal care on top of my love for witnessing student growth! During the school day, I’m limited on any type of services from 8-4pm —however before and after those times I am available. I have my own herd of animals that I also care for daily and would love to add your bunch to the mix. Your pets and home will be treated exactly as I would my own. My goal is to make your pets as comfortable as possible with their regular feeding schedule, either walking or playing outside, and of course lots of love and attention.

Perfect for high energy dogs - East Columbia
“We recently moved from the only house my dogs knew and they have never been to a dog sitter before. They have been a little sheltered. I was so nervous leaving them, but Nancy and her granddaughter have been so accommodating and patient with my fur babies. After only a couple of days, my dogs are more relaxed and now seem to look forward to going to Nancy’s house! If you are looking for someone who will do a great job caring for your pet then give Nancy a call!”
About: Providing a stress free environment from a stay at home nana. I would love to create a home away from home for your beloved fur baby. Life long love for animals. I work from home so can accommodate to your fur babies schedule. My home is quiet and easy to navigate for any pet that may have anxiety. My backyard is fenced in and can provide plenty of room for activity. I usually let my chihuahua out every hour or so, or give him the option to go out. He generally likes to stay under his blanket a majority of the day though. He does get along well with other dogs, as he has lived with larger dogs previously.

“From the very first interaction, Portia demonstrated a level of professionalism and genuine care that immediately put me at ease. Before my dogs even arrived, she took the time to have a lengthy telephone conversation with me to fully understand their individual needs and to ensure she could provide the highest quality of care — that kind of dedication is rare and deeply appreciated. Porsche was wonderfully attentive to making sure my dogs would be comfortable in her home, and took great care to consider how they would get along with her own dog, Scooby, who turned out to be a quiet and absolute delight. What truly stood out was her thoughtfulness - She hid treats around the house to welcome my dogs and to gently distract them as I left — a small but incredibly meaningful touch, especially for my German Shepherd, who suffers from separation anxiety and other sensitivities. She could not have been more understanding or gentle with her. Throughout the stay, Porstia kept me updated with regular photos and videos so I could see exactly how my babies were getting on — which made a world of difference to my peace of mind. She is punctual, reliable, warm, and kind. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any dog owner, particularly those with dogs who have special needs. We will absolutely be returning!”
“Ashley was incredibly communicative right from the beginning.. Bentley is a very shy dog who takes a while to warm up, but to my surprise, he settled in and got comfortable with her very quickly. She was very clear and thorough with Bentley’s care. That says so much about her calm and caring nature. She truly put me at ease the entire time, making the whole experience completely stress-free. I’m so grateful to have found someone so attentive and reliable. 💛”

I am currently a pet care specialist and do all that I can for all and their pets. I also have a degree in environmental science and pet wellness. I also like to applaud myself for customer service skills and being personable with everyone I meet. I will talk to you like I’ve known you forever and I strive to be someone those can be comfortable around. 😊 As a pet care specialist and pet owner myself, my schedule ranges from 8-9 am for spot cleaning and feeding, then around 12 I do pet checks, and around 5-6 is when I do final checks. For dogs, it follows the same structure with added enrichment and outside time in between. I have one dog and one puppy who spend time mostly outside and come in for breaks and food/snacks. I have a cat who eats twice a day and will occasionally be put in his stroller to go outside and enjoy the fresh air lol. And I have 2 guinea pigs who eat twice a day and will come out of their cage for enrichment and play time.
About: I come from a mother who absolutely loves dogs and a father who has been forced to deal with that 😂. I've been around dogs and cats my entire life and helped my mom with fostering pets of all ages, sizes and physical conditions, from a Great Pyrenees to a small pack of Chihuahas. Though I only started sitting locally just over a year ago, I'm very familiar with meeting new dogs and caring for their individual needs. I'm out of school right now so I will have plenty time to come check on and stay with your pets. After I'm done caring for my own, of course. I am available to do a meet & greet to learn just how to take care of your pets, and I can also send a daily update picture just so you know that your animal companion is getting they care they deserve.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for a few years and i love it, I have 4 dogs they are all Toy Aussies and they are the world to me. I love being outside with them and most of all cuddling in bed with them, i would treat your dog like my own. Dogs are consider family and deserve all the love they can get! I don’t have a job, i just got out of cosmetology school and wanting to get my license but i would just love to be with dogs all day long, i’ll be available during the week days, if you need me during the weekend let me know, weekend are usually busy for me but if you need help just ask:) I have a fenced in yard but there is a pasture that i do have with cows and a donkey and we do have a chicken, we currently have 8 dogs with us, and if you need me to create your dog i will do that for you
About: From a young age I loved being around animals, I started out helping my mom since she is a wildlife rehabilitation rescuer. I worked as a Veterinary Technician with small and large animal, and have been working as a receptionist in Veterinary Clinics for 7 years now. Animals bring a happiness to me that is indescribable and if you hire me as your pet sitter I promise that your fur babies will become a part of my family! I will treat them as my own, if you’d like to book please let me know. I like to do meet and greets before I do the job to meet your fur babies, you, and make sure that I have an understanding of the routine to best take care of them while your away! I am currently not working so I am doing pet sitting full time, I can pretty much do any date or time. Just let me know what works best for you. For pet sitting, I would do so in the comfort of your own home and where your pet feels the safest. I do not have a fenced in yard, so to make sure that the pet care is safe I feel it is best to provide it in your home.
About: I’m studying to be an engineer and my dad has a joke that i’m coming back as a veterinarian which says a lot. Unconditional love is what dogs have and the only thing you can do with it is to give some right back to them. I love going on walks and runs even without dogs, so it’s a perfect match. I’m also pretty good at tug of war, i might let your dog win a few times. I’m currently a student at A&M Kingsville with a lot of free time between classes and i’m very flexible as far as my schedule goes. I’m always eat at home and can unsure your dog gets a meal too. I do have a medium sized crate along with some treats of my own. In my apartment complex there is a fenced in doggy area as well as a bunch of yard throughout. As stated though, i love going on walks and letting them explore the campus, and other people love giving out pets and scratches.
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life as I’ve always owned them. They truly are my best friend. I love them and they deserve the best care! I’m currently doing mostly just side gigs which gives me a lot of availability to be free through the week! I plan to do it as much as possible! They are treated just as humans are! Growing up they went on all of our trips with us and were always treated very well! It’s a blast having them!
About: I stay at home so dogs or cats are integrated and socializing with me 24/7. I do have animals of my own as well, the more the merrier! I stay at home so dogs or cats are integrated and socializing with me 24/7. I do have animals of my own as well, the more the merrier! I have 2 friendly dogs in my home, they do have their own kennels as well. We do not have a backyard but we do have a nice dog park that we use, as well as a larger dog park nearby.
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the care I put into making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs — whether that’s slow strolls, energetic playtime, or quiet companionship. I’m dependable, communicative, and always respectful of your home and your pet’s routine. My goal is to build trust with both you and your furry family member. I am currently working very part time on the weekends, while also expecting a new baby boy here in November! I am free all day every weekday! While weekends are up for debate! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always treat the space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet on their usual routine and make sure they feel safe and secure in their familiar environment. I keep a calm, positive energy to help pets feel at ease and never rush through walks or visits. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority — whether that’s keeping them hydrated, cleaning up after them, or making sure they’re never left unsupervised outside. I also stay in touch with regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I grew up taking care of family dogs, neighbors dogs, etc. I also train and bathe your dogs if needed! I would love to look after your fur baby! I make all pets my priority, you look for the best dog care and i can provide it! Your furry friend is in great hands! I care for your pets with all of my heart, giving them love and play time while making them my best furry friend with many kisses and hugs!
About: Ask me about $20 off on your first booking with me! I live on a 20+ acres farm. Plenty of room for your furbabies to play fetch, roam around and run with freedom. I will teach your fur babies some manners/commands if they don't know any, and even some ASL! They are smarter than you think they are. I am a very respectful and loving person. You will not be disappointed. I can make your dog sleep good at night. I can take care of any types of breed and willing to learn about his/her needs. I will research before I meet your dog’s type of breed to get to know them better so I can provide much better service than what you will ask for. Thank you for reading this and hope to hear you soon! Pet sitting is my full time job. I love spending time with fur-babies on daily basis on top of taking care of my own furry ones. I typically take my dogs on daily walk and to the dog park to ease their mind instead of being cooped up in the house all the time. I can provide the same for your fur-babies.

I’m currently a stay at home mom for my 11 year old son. Also, having 2 adult daughters, 1 of which is currently in college and the other just got married last year and is starting a family of her own. I have a VERY large fully fenced in backyard that is ideal for dogs of all ages and breeds. I allow them full access to roam freely inside or outside by use of the doggie door.

About: My name is Payton, we live in a house with a half acre back yard. I am a stay at home mom, so we will have tons of time for actives and attention. We have an 8 year old Husky named Ridge, he is very sweet and LOVES other dogs. Ridge loves to run, so we spend most of our days playing in the yard, taking walks in our quiet neighborhood or going for an easy hike with our daughters. I also have experience in the Veterinary field for those who have pups with special needs (medications, special dietary restrictions, etc.). We also have a very lax orange cat named Jack, who is very good with other animals. I am a stay at home mama to my little ones, so I am home with your pups all day to play and tend to whatever they may need. We have 1 dog in the house, a very lazy husky named Ridge. He absolutely loves other dogs and will play relentlessly with any dogs. We do also have 1 cat, Jack. He is very tolerant and calm. We have a half acre yard with plenty of space for frolicking and play time. We do also love to go to the dog park in the evenings when it’s not so hot. I am very attentive to all the pets in my home. Both my animals are very relaxed but get their share of romping time! I will make sure your dog gets all the love and affection they could possibly need as well as feeding and potty breaks.

“Nancy and Santa were absolutely amazing with my girl, Coca Cola! 🐶 They went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and comfortable during her stay. I loved that they sent me constant photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. At the end of the stay, they even provided a thoughtful doggy report card – such a sweet touch! It’s clear they are not only caring but also very knowledgeable when it comes to pups. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving sitters to watch their fur babies. Thank you both so much!”
