“Arianne was so caring and compassionate with our dog! She kept our dog while we were away for a weekend. She kept communication with us throughout the weekend, sending pictures and texts updating us on how our dog was doing and asking questions when needed. She was very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors, as well. She is quick to respond and was very accommodating us, even though we contacted her with less than a week before our trip. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by animals. Because of that, I’m comfortable with all personalities, temperaments, and care needs. Whether your pet is playful, shy, senior, or somewhere in between, I treat every animal like my own—with patience, attention, and genuine love. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work outside the home, but I work close by where coming home at lunchtime to check on your furry friend it’s not a problem. I have a fenced in yard and I am very careful to keep the doors closed. I am responsible and aware of things going on around me.
“She was amazing! She took great care of my dog and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. She was so sweet, caring, and easy to communicate with. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such good hands. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I began pet sitting in high school, visiting clients’ homes to feed their dogs and give them playtime while owners were away. Over time, this grew into a passion for understanding canine behavior. My interest in psychology, especially behavioral and humanistic approaches, along with my love for dogs, led me to earn my certification as a professional trainer. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, boarding, or housesitting, I ensure every dog is enriched and cared for. I welcome all breeds and temperaments as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible for all types of dog care—except boarding and daycare. I use positive reinforcement to help keep your pup both physically and mentally stimulated. I'm versatile and reliable, and I’m fluent in both English and Spanish to ensure smooth communication with all pet parents. I offer companionship and affection to pets in the absence of their owners, maintaining their routine and minimizing stress. In addition I maintain contact with the owners to update them on their pet's activities and wellbeing.
“Great experience! Peyton was very flexible and accommodating coordinating the booking and Milo was very happy upon picking him up and had a great time! She sent updates over the stay and photos to help keep me updated on Milo. Definitely would rebook and recommend!”
“We had an awesome experience with London! Communication was great the whole time and she kept us in the loop. Our pup got along super well with Sancho (Pretty sure she still misses him haha). Everything went super smooth and we’d totally trust her again. Highly recommend!!!”
“Gisela and her family were great with Winston. He felt at home and was comfortable during his stay. We hope to book with Gisela again next time we are in College Station!”
About: So, I usually volunteer at animal shelters so my experience taking care of dogs comes mostly from that, and I want to be a veterinarian so I’ve also had some experience with shadowing, and can usually see when things are wrong. I will say I’ve never done dog sitting but I’ve had a dog before and currently a cat, so I do know how to take care of animals. Hello, I’m currently home for summer, and I have pretty much every day free besides volunteering at a shelter in the morning from 9-11. Most of the time I have the dog, I’ll most likely spend walking them. I do love doing dog walks, but I’ll also always make sure they’re well fed, and well cared for, and always have water.
About: Growing up we have always had pets. We have always had dogs, but we have also had cats, and even goats. This has given me experience caring for pets of many kind. I have cared my own dog since he was a puppy, giving me the experience necessary to care for your puppies. I work 48-72 hours at a time. On my off days I will be around all day to take give your dog a full day of attention I provide the attentive care necessary to keep your pet safe. I have plenty of experience walking pets on leash, and taking care of pets.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very young. Growing up my mother and I volunteered for dog rescue services. Doing that I cared for dogs big and small, old and young!! My family and friends often have me take care of their pets while they are away, so I’ve had plenty of experience! I currently go to school, so when school is in session there will be limited hours I can pet sit, however after school and on weekends, or summer I am free often! For the service of checking in on your dog at home, I can feed, water, play, and crate your pets whenever needed. I don’t mind doing anything that will help take the best care of your pet!
“Brooke took care off our precious kitty baby, Luna for almost a week. We had a meet & greet prior to her stay & I was thrilled Luna wasn't weirded out, especially since she'd never stayed with other cats/dogs before & doesn't take to strangers very quickly. Brooke was even kind enough to pick Luna up from the vet's office where she was boarded for the first couple days of our vacation since she was unavailable for those 2 days. Brooke sent me updates as well as pictures which I really appreciated because we were 6 hours away & I was a bit concerned that Luna might not behave. Thankfully, everything went well & I'm more than happy to recommend Brooke to other furbaby parents. It was so nice to know that Luna had a safe place to stay with room to run & play while we were away. If Luna could talk (English anyway lol), I'm sure she'd say the same thing! Thanks so much Brooke (& your hubby as well-sorry I forgot his name).”

I have most evenings and weekends off and I am available to help. I love all animals and want to be able to help out others. I usually go to the person’s house and care for them. I have also stayed over at houses if the pet is uncomfortable sleeping alone.
“Wendy was the absolutely perfect partner for our first-time-ever boarding of any of our family pets. It was comforting to have the frequent updates and pics of Ray-Ray (our elderly Norwegian forest cat) that Wendy sent us all through his stay during our family emergency. Wendy’s love of and skill with animals is evident, as is her patience with anxious owners is sincere. A wonderful experience!”

“If I could leave a review higher than 5 stars, I would! Paul was able to watch our pup last minute, communicated clearly, and was so helpful and easy to work with. He took great care of our sweet girl.”

“My new rescue dog had a great day with Mikayla! He was nervous when I dropped him off first thing in the morning, but he relaxed right away. She sent a video of him having fun before I even got to work! Was a great experience for him and he’ll be going back a lot!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was in middle school. I would always have family, friends, or neighbors ask me to check on their dogs, walk them, or just to come over and spend some time with them while they are out of town.

I can take them on walks, keep them company, and provide loving, reliable pet sitting so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re in good hands.

“She is wonderful with animals and took care of our dog like he was her own; took trips to the park, helped continue his training, showed him lots of love, everything we could've asked for and more. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Peyton did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of Bohdi! From the moment we connected, Peyton was professional, attentive, and clearly loves animals. Bohdi can be a bit particular at times, but Peyton handled everything with patience and care, making sure he felt comfortable and happy the entire time. I really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and thoughtful communication—it gave me complete peace of mind knowing Bohdi was in such good hands. It’s clear Peyton goes above and beyond, not just meeting expectations but truly caring for pets as if they were their own. When I returned, Bohdi was relaxed, well cared for, and clearly had a great experience. I would absolutely trust Peyton again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”

About: I have 3+ years of house sitting for a friend's dog, feeding and water for his dog, and walking his dog twice a day. I have no special skills.

“This is the second time I have used Brittany. The first meeting we had to see if she was a fit, she brought a checklist and asked great questions. I appreciated the attention to detail. This was the first time my nearly 13 year old Labrador had been apart from me for a full week. He did great, but it was only because of her commitment to take care of him.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by animals. Because of that, I’m comfortable with all personalities, temperaments, and care needs. Whether your pet is playful, shy, senior, or somewhere in between, I treat every animal like my own—with patience, attention, and genuine love. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work outside the home, but I work close by where coming home at lunchtime to check on your furry friend it’s not a problem. I have a fenced in yard and I am very careful to keep the doors closed. I am responsible and aware of things going on around me.
“She was amazing! She took great care of my dog and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. She was so sweet, caring, and easy to communicate with. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such good hands. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I began pet sitting in high school, visiting clients’ homes to feed their dogs and give them playtime while owners were away. Over time, this grew into a passion for understanding canine behavior. My interest in psychology, especially behavioral and humanistic approaches, along with my love for dogs, led me to earn my certification as a professional trainer. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, boarding, or housesitting, I ensure every dog is enriched and cared for. I welcome all breeds and temperaments as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible for all types of dog care—except boarding and daycare. I use positive reinforcement to help keep your pup both physically and mentally stimulated. I'm versatile and reliable, and I’m fluent in both English and Spanish to ensure smooth communication with all pet parents. I offer companionship and affection to pets in the absence of their owners, maintaining their routine and minimizing stress. In addition I maintain contact with the owners to update them on their pet's activities and wellbeing.
“We had an awesome experience with London! Communication was great the whole time and she kept us in the loop. Our pup got along super well with Sancho (Pretty sure she still misses him haha). Everything went super smooth and we’d totally trust her again. Highly recommend!!!”
“Gisela and her family were great with Winston. He felt at home and was comfortable during his stay. We hope to book with Gisela again next time we are in College Station!”
About: Hi! I'm Olga, and dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with all kinds of dogs, from Miniature Poodles and Labs to four Dachshunds, so caring for dogs is nothing new to me. I have two dogs of my own, Atlas and Gaia, who are fully trained and well behaved. I've also trained them myself, along with helping train a few other family dogs over the years. I currently provide in home boarding and daycare for dogs and treat every pup like one of my own. I pay close attention to their behavior and well being, and I'l always keep you updated about anything I notice, whether it's an upset stomach, diarrhea, resource guarding, unusual behavior, or anything else that may be important. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while they're with me. 🐾 ❤️ Dogs are already a big part of my everyday life, and I'm home often, so caring for pups fits naturally into my routine. I enjoy having them around and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel at home. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. I have a large backyard where the dogs can run and play, plus a little dog pool for them to cool off and have fun outside. I also enjoy playing fetch, spending time with them, and giving them plenty of attention throughout the day. I'Il adjust activities based on each dog's energy level and what they enjoy most.
About: So, I usually volunteer at animal shelters so my experience taking care of dogs comes mostly from that, and I want to be a veterinarian so I’ve also had some experience with shadowing, and can usually see when things are wrong. I will say I’ve never done dog sitting but I’ve had a dog before and currently a cat, so I do know how to take care of animals. Hello, I’m currently home for summer, and I have pretty much every day free besides volunteering at a shelter in the morning from 9-11. Most of the time I have the dog, I’ll most likely spend walking them. I do love doing dog walks, but I’ll also always make sure they’re well fed, and well cared for, and always have water.
“Brooke did a great job taking care of sprout. She was very kind, caring, thoughtful, and communicative through the entire process. She and her husband made a a great effort to make me and sprout feel safe and comfortable. They sent pictures to keep me updated which really helped me feel at ease. They are honestly some of the nicest people I have ever met and they really care about animals. Sprout had a blast with their dog and it made me happy to know he had a fun vacation and made a new friend while I was away. I would absolutely recommend them and use them again if I need a dog sitter.”
