“Julie took amazing care of my dog while I was on vacation. She sent pictures and updates everyday. She took care of my baby as if she were her own.

I highly recommend Sarah and will schedule with her again when needed.”

About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life and have about two years of pet sitting experience. I also have two dogs of my own, so I understand the level of care, attention, and trust that goes into looking after someone’s pet. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including puppies and seniors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and sticking to your dog’s routine, and I treat every pet like my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention and care they deserve. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or check-ins, I’ll make sure your dog gets consistent care, attention, and companionship. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who are used to being around other pets. I always prioritize safety by supervising interactions, keeping a clean and comfortable environment, and following your pet’s routine closely. I can crate your dog if needed and will make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a registered nurse, I’m highly attentive, dependable, and comfortable monitoring for changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, or overall well-being. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, senior pets, and animals that need extra patience and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medication administration, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of love and attention. My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits depending on your needs. I understand the importance of consistency for pets and strive to maintain their normal routines while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, extended care, or overnight attention, I’m committed to providing dependable and compassionate care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a registered nurse, I pay close attention to details and am experienced in recognizing changes in health or behavior. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and household routines. I believe in building trust with both pets and owners through clear communication, reliability, and respect for your home. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I am an animal lover. I have three dogs of my own, all small rescues. I love big dogs but can’t have them in our tiny house. I am a full time nurse practitioner but take care of animals on my days off. I know how hard it is to find loyal and trustworthy people to care for my animals. That is why I wanted to provide this service. Also, walking and playing with dogs and cats is fun. We also travel and are interested in keeping dogs during travel. My husband and I work together to make sure our dogs are outside regularly throughout the day. I will only be taking appointments on my days off, so my schedule is a little sporadic. For overnight stays, I need to have walked your dogs at least 4-5 times and/or completed a trial of doggy day care to make sure your dog gets along with my personal animals.
“Sarah responded quickly and concisely, was pleasant, and took great care of my dog. I almost felt bad taking the dog away from her 4 year old kid. Will book with Sarah again if she is available next time I need a dog sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was about 10, I’m 21 now. My major is Pre-Veterinary because I’ve had a love for animals and dream of being a vet since I was 7. I have a cat of my own, Luna, and she’s my world. I treat her like a baby so I would love to share the same love to your fur babies! I work full-time as a manager at Walmart, and I’m a full time college student (online). I’m pretty fair and understanding with scheduling, as long as you reach out in advance. If my schedule doesn’t fit for you, I do not mind adjusting to accommodate you and your fur babies! I also don’t have an issue with last minute planning, just be mindful of scheduling issues or certain questions I asks in regards of the service you’ve requested! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I also monitor their behavior to make sure they are happy, healthy, and not feeling stressed while their owner is away. As well as in a clients home, I respect your space and specific instructions on pet care! Ensuring your pets and home’s safety is never an issue.

“Bianca is amazing!! We have never left our 3 kitties alone for long, and was very nervous to go on a longer vacation. The moment she came by to meet them, our nerves were instantly calmed. We knew all the furbabies were in the perfect hands while we were away! Each drop in visit she made sure they all got attention and cleaned up all of their messes!! She went above and beyond and will for sure request her back, and highly recommend her for your furbabies!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs every chance I’ve gotten. At my church every knows I’m up for a dog watching gig at their house or my own at any time.

“Tori did a great job taking care of our cat! You can tell she loves animals and our cat was in great hands. Tori was nice, professional, and has such a calm presence. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks, Tori!”
“Relocating from Los Angeles to Tyler for my residency at UT Tyler was stressful, and I was especially worried about leaving my fur babies, Luna P and Washington, with a sitter during the holidays for a whole week. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Raul. He kept me updated throughout the week with pictures and thoughtful texts, even asking for specific details to ensure he was meeting my pets' needs. Raul was on top of everything, and it was clear he truly cared about my bbs. Washington, who is very shy and nervous around strangers, warmed up to Raul by day three and was even playing with him! Knowing my pets were in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my time with family, without any worries. I highly recommend Raul. He is trustworthy, responsible, and reliable—qualities I truly appreciated during such a busy and stressful time.”
About: I have been so fortunate to care for and love on many dogs from puppy age to senior, both big and small! My soul dog of 16 years dealt with heart issues the last few years of his life which gave me the skills to track, administer, and monitor his schedule as needed. I have also had pups who've dealt with stomach and skin issues, so i am experienced in that aspect as well. I have a very flexible daily schedule as I work from home and spend the day taking care of furry friends. This gives me ample opportunity to give your pets all of the love and care that they need while you are away! When caring for pets in your home, I always ensure that they stick as close to their normal routine as possible to ease their stress. It is important to create a stress-free environment and a calm relationship between myself and your furry fam!

“Shelby is a wonderful pet sitter who took great care of our furry girl. We had a great first impression when we met her. Amora is usually shy and doesn’t interact much, but I was surprised when I heard that she was playing with Shelby’s kids. I’m so glad that Amora’s first experience went smoothly. I will definitely use her services again.”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Now that I have my own home, our pets are truly our babies. I love going on daily walks, having dedicated playtime, and giving all the attention, snuggles, and care they need.

About: Do you have long workdays and have multiple animals at home all day? No need to worry. Message me and I can make sure your animals get the cuddles and proper care at ease.

We have been doing animal sitting since I was a child and when I got my license I do it alone all the time ! I live in Tyler and can make the commute whenever you need me. I have such a huge place in my heart for animals and want the best care for all of them. I’ve studied animal psychology for fun all of my life. I am a college student who just loves taking care of animals and making sure animal owners can be comfortable while away from their animal because I know how scary that can be from first hand experience. Let me know when you need me and we can figure out the schedule! :-) I typically have an easy schedule and accommodate for your fur child ❤️ If there is anything that you need me to do in your house or with your animal please feel free to let me know! :-)

I’m very familiar with being cautious with letting pets out, feeding, etc and will pay close attention to your pet and our surroundings at all times.
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a registered nurse, I’m highly attentive, dependable, and comfortable monitoring for changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, or overall well-being. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, senior pets, and animals that need extra patience and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medication administration, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of love and attention. My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits depending on your needs. I understand the importance of consistency for pets and strive to maintain their normal routines while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, extended care, or overnight attention, I’m committed to providing dependable and compassionate care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a registered nurse, I pay close attention to details and am experienced in recognizing changes in health or behavior. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and household routines. I believe in building trust with both pets and owners through clear communication, reliability, and respect for your home. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Having a dog of my own has taught me responsibility. In high school, I used to dog sit overnight! I even did dog walking in my neighborhood. I am a college student at TJC, studying Medical Laboratory Tech. I am also a shift lead at Dutch Bros Coffee! I am willingly open to watch any pets on my days off or even off of my shift! I make sure to keep all pets in my sight, and interact with them if so! Walking and playing with dogs is something I enjoy!
About: I am reliable, caring & flexible when it comes to accommodating yours & your pets needs while you are away. I have been a pet owner and animal lover my whole life so I understand the love & care that your fur babies require! As a former kennel technician, I have years of experience with various breeds of dogs of all sizes. I am also highly experienced with kittens and cats of all temperaments. While you are away, I am always available to provide you with updates via text, pictures, emails or calls! Rest assured that your fur baby will be happy & loved! If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me! **Please check availability calendar as schedule may fill quickly during summer :)** Availability subject to change. Please reach out and we can discuss a schedule that works best for you and your pets! I like to spend as much time playing with and loving on pets as I can to ensure they feel relaxed, cared for and to also get out any energy that builds up between visits. They will be fed according to your preferred feeding schedule and will have plenty of potty breaks through out the day. However, because accidents do happen, your house will be checked during each visit for any "gifts" left between visits & will be cleaned thoroughly.

I highly recommend Sarah and will schedule with her again when needed.”
