Ms Janet kept me up to date on Lola and sent pics and videos. I was very comfortable and grateful to have chosen Ms. Janet to watch my baby. I will definitely reach out to her again for further stays for Lola. Thank you a million times and more Janet!!”
“Our dog sitter has been absolutely exceptional. We trust him completely with our pup, and the level of care he provides is top-tier. He is reliable, communicative, attentive, and truly treats our dog like his own. We’ve booked him multiple times and will continue to do so—his consistency and professionalism make him stand out. From feeding schedules to playtime and updates, everything is always handled with care and attention to detail. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and delivers peace of mind every single time, he’s the one. Highly recommend! 🐾 — Ariadne & family”
“Excellent dog sitter! We could not have been happier. They sent photos and videos of our pups while we were gone, and were very prompt to communicate. Would definitely recommend.”
“Seriously the best experience with Isha!! We will certainly be back to her if her availability lines up with our next vacation. Our dog Tiller loved her and her home! She updates you with pictures often and takes such good care of your fur baby. I was immediately put at ease with how comfortable my *sometimes anxious* dog was around her! She asked all the right questions to take care of him the best. We’ll definitely be back to her!”
“Anthony and his family are the best in taking care of Fendi. She is always well fed, so clean , and so happy. She loves it when we drop her off so much that we almost feel bad. Also, when our flight was late, Anthony was very accommodating in keeping her another night so that we could get in. He really is great.”
“Carly showed the utmost care for my elderly pup and made sure she had plenty of outside time and attention. Since Fluff requires a bit of extra care due to her age, I was especially grateful for Carly’s dedication it was never an obstacle for her. She even provided daily reports and end of day notes, which helped me stay informed and better understand Fluff’s routine. Carly was also incredibly accommodating throughout my trip. If I’m ever going out of town again, I know exactly who to contact!”
“Qua'Dal was sooo amazingly patient with my fur baby!! She appeared to have really enjoyed her stay!!

We will definitely be using Jonathan again in the future!”
“I am so grateful to Lillian for taking such wonderful care of my dog, Bobby.

“Cassidy was wonderful with Wyatt! She completed three drop-in visits and was reliable, communicative, and caring throughout. The photos and updates during each visit gave me peace of mind knowing Wyatt was being well cared for while I was away.

I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate pet sitter.”

About: I have over 15 years of pet sitting experience. I loved spending time with our family dog before he got very sick and died last year. I am looking for work. I have a very flexible schedule when it comes to pet sitting. I am interested in walking dogs as well. We use to keep our dog in a indoor kennel, and we use to let him run around the a fence in backyard as long as he wanted to.
About: I have loved and taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I would house sit and dog walk for family and neighbors. I currently have two huskies, one male and one female. I am a licensed dog groomer and did that for 2 years. I currently work Monday - Friday from 8 am to 4pm. I can dogs walk any time on the weekends, and in the evenings Monday through Friday. I currently have two energetic huskies that I take to a local dog park 3 times a week. I'm available to dog walk in the evenings after 5 pm. I am available to dog walk and dog sit any time on weekends.
“Kayla took great care of our chihuahua for drop in visits. She is reliable and professional. Kayla has a wonderful disposition and our doggie loved her. She was a pleasure to work with and I would definitely recommend her services.”
About: I’ve owned two cats of my own and loved them my whole life. I’ve been around kittens and seniors and will ensure tailored care is provided for your cat’s individual needs. I am willing to work with untrained kittens and help them learn what is and is not allowed in your household so that their development is kept consistent.
About: I've been taking care of cats since I was 13. I’m not just a cat sitter - I’m a dedicated cat lover who understands that every cat has unique needs. I’m passionate about maintaining a clean and comfortable environment, which means I take extra time to clean litter boxes every night to keep your cat’s space fresh and inviting. Above all, I focus on building a trusting bond with your cat, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away.
About: I was raised in a pet family and learned many skills that I use in my day to day life like responsibility, integrity, loyalty, patience, and kindness. My Uncle gave us his cat when I was in middle school and at first, I was weary, but I fell in love with her. I loved cuddling and holding her, listening to her purr, and hanging out. She was so kind and sweet, which made me want more cats in my future! I have cat-sat for others and it's been fun to learn each one's unique personality! Some are calm and some are so goofy/energetic. With owning and watching a cat, I feel confident in my skills of: cleaning out their litter box, spending time with them, playing with them, feeding them, and loving on them. I cannot wait to have the opportunity of meeting more cats in the future!

“My two frenchies have never stayed with anyone other than family or our best friends. We were nervous but Carolyn kept us informed and sent us photos of them daily.

About: I truly treat every pet like my own. I make it a priority to keep owners updated with regular messages, photos, and little notes so you always know how your fur babies are doing. I understand how important peace of mind is when you’re away, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. With over a decade of experience caring for dogs that need daily medication, I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and patient. I take time to play, comfort, and bond with each animal - not just to meet their needs, but to make sure they feel loved and secure. Just let me know how I can help! All summer I am FREE! During the school year I’m available for some Saturdays, all Sundays, and weekdays after 6-7 PM. I am a teacher! Whether you need an evening walk, weekend drop-in, or someone to spend a little extra time with your pets while you’re away, I’m happy to help whenever I can! When caring for pets in their own homes, I make sure they feel completely comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine closely — feeding times, walks, medications, playtime, and cuddles — to keep everything as familiar as possible for them. I’m available for week day walks, drop-ins, and extended sitting, depending on what your pets need. I have over 10 years of hands-on experience giving medications to my own dogs (one of whom needs multiple meds daily), so I’m very comfortable administering pills, liquids, or injections if needed. Communication is a must for me. I will always let you know if something comes up, all I ask is the same from you! If we have clear communication from the start we will be just fine! Whether it’s walks around the block, belly rubs, backyard fetch sessions, or just sitting with them for comfort, I give every pet the same love and attention I give my own - Roscoe and Blue have taught me how much those little moments matter. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.
“Isha was friendly & accommodating. Helpful communication with us while booking and before we arrived, and she sent great pics & updates while the dogs were with her. Her back yard looked pleasant & secure. The dogs were very happy.”
About: Hi! I’m a passionate pet lover with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs. Originally from Colombia, I’ve raised dogs always making sure they feel comfortable and understood no matter what! I’ve been in Texas for 10 years and brought my own dogs along for the journey. Right now, I’m the proud owner of a 12-year-old West Highland Terrier, who’s a sweet senior pup. My other dog, a senior Chow Chow, sadly passed away a few months ago after battling cancer. Throughout her journey, I gained invaluable experience in caring for a senior dog and learned the deep commitment and compassion required to ensure their comfort and well-being. I truly believe pets are family and should be treated with the same love, care, and respect as any family member. I’ve helped neighbors and friends with boarding, daycare, and walks, and I’d love to do the same for your furry friend. Whether it’s a relaxing day at home or a fun walk, your pet will be in good hands with me!. I'm currently working from home so I can make sure take your pups for potty breaks often as needed and if I leave home, will be for couple hours to run errands. At home, we have a fenced backyard where they can roam freely and play, and we’ll make sure they have fresh water and food regularly.
“I was in the middle of moving and I was a little hesitant on putting them in a daycare type of situation. I’m so happy I did! My dogs were well taken care of and in a better mood after they spent a day here. Definitely will be rebooking!”
“Robin took fabulous care of Penny and did a great job keeping me updated and sending me pics throughout the day! Penny had such a great time and got lots of playtime and exercise. Robin clearly has a passion and a knack for taking care of dogs and I highly recommend her :)”
“Outstanding doggy daycare for my 2 pups!!! So friendly and my doggies made themselves right at home. Huge backyard to play fetch in because my Great Dane puppy came home and slept all night like a baby. Highly recommended ??”
“Wow what a true find and dog lover we have with Lillian. She loved and played with our Pearl like we do at home. She sent updates and pictures and we could see Pearl was being well taken care of. Pearl was not stressed at all when we picked her up. Lillian loved on her just as we do. Lillian is truly a gentle and lovely person. We have already booked another stay in April.”
About: We love your pets like they’re our own. We have been around pets most of our life and would love to help care for yours.

I can do whatever you need and care for your pet just like you would in your home or mine. I will take great care to keep them cozy and safe.
About: I have one small dog, Gizmo, who is 14 years old. He weighs 6 pounds, only has a few teeth left, and is spoiled rotten. I am a realtor and work out of my home, and I figured I could spend some of my time taking care of other's dogs too. I am a real estate agent and work from home, so I have a fairly open schedule to take care of your fur babies as needed. In my home I have a well fenced yard and a small doggy door which allows them to come and go as needed. I can also stay the night at your house instead and take care of your pets as needed, with walks, feeding, medicine, and lots of cuddles.
“Im so grateful for Geneva! I was in a bind last minute and I reached out to her. She responded so quickly to my request and watched my Ralphie for a whole day! She has a very cute home with a great backyard for him to play in. Ralphie was in great spirits when I picked him up and slept so soundly when we came home. I kniw he had such a great day with her! Thank you Geneva 😊 I've got her booked for next weekend already and I know Ralphie is excited too. Thank you for taking care of my boy 😌 I know he's in good hands with her ❤️”
About: I have many years of experience as a dog walker and sitter. I have two dogs: a chihuahua named Minnie, and a corgi mix named Stubbs. They’re both very friendly and well trained. I’m a huge dog lover- every time I see one in public I have to pet them. I grew up with dogs and I’ve never not had one. My dogs are part of the family, and they’re very spoiled. I have a house with a big .25 acre fenced in backyard with plenty of shade and a dog door which can be closed. I have several tennis balls and other toys, and I love to go for dog walks around the neighborhood & to the dog park. Your fur babies will get plenty of love, attention and cuddles with me! I work from home, so I’m fully dedicated to taking care of your pups! I will make sure they are treated just like my own, and get plenty of walks and playtime. I offer free pickup & drop off as well! I have a large .25 acre fenced yard that is perfect for playing fetch, and two friendly dogs for your pups to play & cuddle with! I always have lots of toys around, and dogs are always welcome on the couch & bed.
About: I had a chihuahua 5 years ago that I helped with training and find a forever home. This year I have adopted a fur baby, Lhasa Apso and we love play times, walks and going to the dog park. My job allows me to be a full time fur mommy. And I couldn't be happier. I grew up with dogs and treat then as my kids. I have a remote job and this gives the liberty to take my pet as many walks as needed and have lots of play time. I am at a pet friendly apartment, there is dog parks near by. We can always discuss your pet needs. My Lhasa Apso is friendly with kids and any size dog.

About: I am the go to guy in the family to take care of our furry loved ones. I currently live with my significant other and we have two rabbits of our own. I am comfortable and confident in taking care of any of your pets. Growing up, my brothers and I had pets ranging from guinea pigs to birds to snakes to a 5 foot long tegu. I am a music teacher during the school year from August to May. So from the summer months June to August, I am trying to find another way to make money from my other life passions. I live an apartment with my girlfriend and 2 bunnies, so I do not feel comfortable taking in any pets unfortunately. But I am comfortable with any service needed to keep your pets happy. I can drive to your house, stay there, or just take your pets on a walk to make sure they get exercise and get to use the bathroom.
“I continue to rebook with Elizabeth, because she is dependable and has a quick response time. There has been several times where I had to reach out to her last minute and she’s always been able to help. Definitely recommend using her!”
“Spencer did a great job. He listened to my notes. He was friendly and affectionate with my buddy. My girl had a great time on the walk and there were plenty of notes and pictures!”
About: I’ve dealt with all types of animals - shy, aggressive, specific needs, and the ones who need extra attention. My family dog and previous pup needed oral medication, shots, and had specific diets. I’m home on weekends for the foreseeable future and will always welcome extra fur babies to my place. Live on acre+ of land and have accessible trails within walking distance as well. Have pool and extra room if your doggo needs their own space while I’m away. Willing to do pop ins for those who work longer hours, welcome fur babies to my house, or give walks during the day. My night schedule allows me plenty of flexibility and always looking for ways to fill my schedule. My dogs love extra roommates. I work nights starting at midnight and usually off by 8:30-9am. I’m off Friday Saturday and go in Sunday night. I don’t go out and love daily walks with my doggos. I have a fenced 1.5acre fenced backyard with access to trails within walking distance. While away I leave my dogs out and they have access to my bed, couch, and spare rooms. If more comfortable can keep them in spare room or kenneled depending on your preference.

About: Hello! I'm Heather I’m an animal lover through and through—with five dogs, one cat, a bearded dragon, and a fish at home. My life is basically a furry (and scaly) party! I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years, and I truly believe dogs are just toddlers in fur coats. As a yoga instructor, I love getting outside and going on peaceful (or playful!) adventures with my four-legged buddies. Can’t wait to meet your pup and become their new walking bestie! Pet care is a natural part of my flow as a pet sitter, dog walker, and house sitter—it’s one more way I get to make your pets feel loved and cared for. With several animals of my own, I’m no stranger to mealtime routines, special diets, and those adorable “is it dinner yet?” stares. My background as a certified yoga teacher, Reiki practitioner, and sound therapist adds a calming, mindful presence to every visit. Whether I’m serving up a favorite meal, heading out for a walk, or staying overnight, I bring heart, reliability, and a whole lot of love to each pet I care for. --- Would you like to personalize it further with your name or the types of animals you have? Safety, trust, and respect are at the core of how I care for every animal—and every home. Whether I’m walking dogs, pet sitting, or house sitting, I prioritize your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind. I take time to understand each animal’s needs, use secure leashes and harnesses on walks, and stay alert to their surroundings. In your home, I treat the space with the same care and respect I would my own. Building trust with both pets and their people is my top priority, and I’m always happy to provide updates so you feel connected and confident while you’re away.

This may include things such as correction collars, gentle leads etc… ) Plant Care - Plant lover here with a (mostly) green thumb, and would take pleasure in caring for your household flora as well. If there is anything else you would need in your absence, Just ask me ! We can certainly figure something out together <3. My availability is very flexible as long as I have a decent amount of notice. - Short Notice requests are welcome. I will do my best to accommodate but cannot guarantee last minute availability. I will care for your pets as requested and do my best to follow any schedules that they are currently used to. Every family has their own ways of doing things, so I believe that should be tailored to the client’s needs :). I do also have a dog cart / carrier which can carry up to 100 lb dog on walks. It’s basically like a large stroller for dogs with mobility issues.
About: I have always been good at taking care of animals. I have rescued many, many cats, dogs, the occasional bird. Because of this, I have lost count of how many animals I’ve fostered and cared for at home or at hospitals. I also went to vet school in Brazil and I’m trying to get licensed here in the USA. I am currently working as a vet tech. I work from 7:30am to 6:00pm-ish and on my days off I usually stay home all day. Sometimes I go out with friends but we would talk about this beforehand and I always sleep at home. I can walk/feed your pets as many times as you’d like me to on my days off. On the working days, I would only be able to walk them before 7am and after 6:30pm. If they absolutely can’t hold that long, then I can come back home for lunch and walk them. I ride my bike to work and I don’t have a car, so it’s a little unusual for me to come home for lunch. I go to bed at 10pm, but if it’s a puppy I can take them out a little later so they don’t have to hold for too long. Just tell me what your pet needs and we can negotiate! I live in a studio on the 3rd floor, so I don’t have a lot of space. If your pet isn’t too heavy and has back or knee issues I can carry them up and down just fine. Let me remind you that I don’t have a car, if we have an emergency I’d be relying on Uber/Lyft to take me and your pet to the ER. I actually enjoy being around animals so I will let them lay down on my lap all day, sleep with me in bed (as long as they’re clean, of course 😅). Even when I’m at work, I’ll usually bring a pet to one of the rooms to hang out with me. This is my job, but even during my time off I want to spend time with them.

“Our dog sitter has been absolutely exceptional. We trust him completely with our pup, and the level of care he provides is top-tier. He is reliable, communicative, attentive, and truly treats our dog like his own. We’ve booked him multiple times and will continue to do so—his consistency and professionalism make him stand out. From feeding schedules to playtime and updates, everything is always handled with care and attention to detail. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and delivers peace of mind every single time, he’s the one. Highly recommend! 🐾 — Ariadne & family”
“Seriously the best experience with Isha!! We will certainly be back to her if her availability lines up with our next vacation. Our dog Tiller loved her and her home! She updates you with pictures often and takes such good care of your fur baby. I was immediately put at ease with how comfortable my *sometimes anxious* dog was around her! She asked all the right questions to take care of him the best. We’ll definitely be back to her!”
“Anthony and his family are the best in taking care of Fendi. She is always well fed, so clean , and so happy. She loves it when we drop her off so much that we almost feel bad. Also, when our flight was late, Anthony was very accommodating in keeping her another night so that we could get in. He really is great.”
“Carly showed the utmost care for my elderly pup and made sure she had plenty of outside time and attention. Since Fluff requires a bit of extra care due to her age, I was especially grateful for Carly’s dedication it was never an obstacle for her. She even provided daily reports and end of day notes, which helped me stay informed and better understand Fluff’s routine. Carly was also incredibly accommodating throughout my trip. If I’m ever going out of town again, I know exactly who to contact!”

“I have a 3 month old kitten. This my first time leaving my baby girl since I adopted her. Alyssa reassured me constantly and sent photos and Videos of my fur baby so I could enjoy my vacation in peace. She feed her properly and returned all of her things at pick up. (I’m sure I sent my kittens whole house of stuff) She responded quickly and gave updates daily. I will definitely recommend her and will definitely be using her again. Thank uuuu Alyssa!!”
“Wow, Jonathan was amazing! You could tell that Skipper loved him the moment that they met and that she felt right at home.

We will definitely be using Jonathan again in the future!”
“I am so grateful to Lillian for taking such wonderful care of my dog, Bobby. Lillian provided me with fantastic daily updates and photos from Bobby's stay, and she provided him with such care and undivided attention. I know Bobby had a wonderful stay, and I truly appreciate everything Lillian did to make it an enjoyable time from him away from home. Thank you, Lillian!”
About: I truly treat every pet like my own. I make it a priority to keep owners updated with regular messages, photos, and little notes so you always know how your fur babies are doing. I understand how important peace of mind is when you’re away, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. With over a decade of experience caring for dogs that need daily medication, I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and patient. I take time to play, comfort, and bond with each animal - not just to meet their needs, but to make sure they feel loved and secure. Just let me know how I can help! All summer I am FREE! During the school year I’m available for some Saturdays, all Sundays, and weekdays after 6-7 PM. I am a teacher! Whether you need an evening walk, weekend drop-in, or someone to spend a little extra time with your pets while you’re away, I’m happy to help whenever I can! When caring for pets in their own homes, I make sure they feel completely comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine closely — feeding times, walks, medications, playtime, and cuddles — to keep everything as familiar as possible for them. I’m available for week day walks, drop-ins, and extended sitting, depending on what your pets need. I have over 10 years of hands-on experience giving medications to my own dogs (one of whom needs multiple meds daily), so I’m very comfortable administering pills, liquids, or injections if needed. Communication is a must for me. I will always let you know if something comes up, all I ask is the same from you! If we have clear communication from the start we will be just fine! Whether it’s walks around the block, belly rubs, backyard fetch sessions, or just sitting with them for comfort, I give every pet the same love and attention I give my own - Roscoe and Blue have taught me how much those little moments matter. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.
“Left Pancho in really good hands! I could tell he was comfortable right away. I also got multiple updates and pictures throughout the day which I appreciated a ton! Layla and Teddy were the best hosts.”

“Blair was great!! I could tell she took great care of my Scooby! He looked so happy and relaxed when we picked him up, it was such a relief knowing he was in good hands!”
“Shanna was hands down the best sitter I have ever used for my dogs. She has the perfect home for dogs to sprawl out and run around. The level of professionalism was incredible and I have quite literally never seen both my dogs so happy. Little Basil didn’t want to come home! I would and will recommend her to anyone I know who needs a quality dog sitter who really cares. I can not wait to have her watch my babies again soon!”
“Shawndra was a great sitter for Luka. He really liked her and I was pleased everything went good. It was one less thing I needed to worry about while I was away. She was the best and the communication was top tier”
