“Belinda took great care of our dog Brody for five nights and showed him lots of love while we were on a trip. She kept us updated daily and sent us lots of pictures. She was very flexible and accommodating with our drop off and pick up times. She even made brody a sweet blanket that he loves. Highly recommend Belinda!!!”

“Stefani was a great help ! We were in town and totally forgot the Texas State Aquarium didn’t allow pets. She took Lola into her home while we were at the aquarium. Kept me updated. When back in town and needing a sitter will definitely book again! Thank you once again!”

“Megan went above and beyond to make sure our dog was taken care of. Took her to the park and on multiple walks a day. She welcomed our dog into her home with open arms and spoiled her everyday. Can’t recommend Megan enough. 10/10!!!”

About: I’ve grown up around pets my entire life, dogs, cats, birds, turtles, etc! I’m a huge believer that they’re like family! I had a dog of my own for most of my life that was blind and diabetic, so I’m familiar with taking care of dogs of old age and medical care. I currently work as a flight attendant as well so my schedule varies week to week! I typically have spans on days on/off that make it easy for me to take care of your pets for several days! I live in an apartment that has sidewalks and grass all around, it’s a pet friendly complex:) I have no other pets or children that affect the environment. I’m also nearby a jogging trail that I love to take pets on for walks!
“She was excellent with my dog and I could clearly tell from the pictures that she made it so that my dog (who’s definitely on the shy side) was having fun and interacting well with the other dogs. 10/10 would recommend and choose her again!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and currently own a miniature schnauzer, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love they need. I also have experience pet sitting for others, caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure your dog feels safe and happy while you’re away. I’m currently attending school online, which allows me to be home full-time and provide consistent care and attention for your pets. Because of this, I have very open and flexible availability throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Your pet will never be left alone and will receive complete supervision, playtime, and care during their stay. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and get exercise, as well as a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys having company. I always supervise interactions to make sure everyone stays safe and happy. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. If your dog is crate-trained or you prefer they be crated at certain times, I’m more than happy to accommodate that. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions carefully to keep your pet comfortable in their familiar environment. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so both you and your pet feel completely at ease.

“Ingrid spent a lot of time interacting with my four dogs at every visit. She made sure they had plenty of outside playtime. One was a newly rescued stray that although lovable was quite a handful. She was completely unfazed. The dogs finished every visit with her happy and relaxed. She took care of the cats also and even my shy kitty warmed up to her. I will definitely use Ingrid again for our next trip.”
“Regina and her family are lovely people who were great sitters for quimby. He was well cared for during the stay. Regina was meticulous, prompt and always communicated with us during the stay, even when we forgot to respond at times. We can tell quimby enjoyed his stay because he was calm throughout the journey back home. To summarize, we highly recommend regina and her family for any petcare needs and we would love to send quimby to them again. Thank you so much!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. From Dachshunds to Great Danes and every stray in between, I've owned fostered and adopted over 30 dogs of all sizes and different levels of need. My services include daily dog walks, hikes or runs for our high-energy clients (your preference), basic grooming (bathing and nail trimming) and obedience training. I understand your dogs aren't pets - they're people/ family and I'll treat them as such. "A dog will teach you unconditional love. If you can have that in your life, things won't be too bad." - Robert Wagner "I work hard everyday so that my dog can have a better life." - Unknown "My Dog Does this thing where she just exist and makes my life better" -Unknown

“Deann was so accommodating to our dogs in her lovely home. She helped us out of a bind while we were in Portland for a World Series baseball tournament. Our dogs had no trouble making themselves at home in her care. I will definitely request her services again the next time we're in town with our pups.”

“Super friendly, dog lover, lightning speed response time. Asked for a last minute appointment as we passed through town and she was sssooo accommodating. Thanks!”

“Brooke is such a nice person. My dog Oreo seems to have enjoyed his time with her. She did outstanding job of taking care of my Oreo. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter for anybodys pet.”

About: When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have a safe and comfortable environment with plenty of space to roam and play. I maintain a regular feeding schedule, provide fresh water at all times, and administer any necessary medications as directed by the owner. Additionally, I engage in interactive playtime and provide daily walks or outdoor activities to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. When caring for pets in a my home, I prioritize their comfort and well-being by following the owner's instructions closely. I maintain their usual routines to minimize stress and ensure they feel secure in their familiar surroundings. I communicate regularly with the owner and , providing updates on their pet's activities and any concerns that may arise.

I will provide weekly pet waste cleanup, feeding and medication, exercise and play in addition to age appropriate learning activities to benefit your best friend.
About: I’ve taken care of many pets and I love what I do. Meeting new animals and being able to give a sense of peace to the owners while they are away is fulfilling. I like helping anyway that I can. I work at a Vet clinic so I see animals every day already so spending time with more animals is an added bonus. I work at a veterinary clinic full time. I work 10 hour shifts 4 times a week. Always off on Sundays. Rotate shifts on Saturdays. As long as you’re comfortable with my hours then I’ll make the pet sitting experience fun and enjoyable. I slowly approach the animals that are new to me to give them time to get used to me before they meet me. I like to gain a bonding experience by either going out for a walk with them or playing with a favorite toy of theirs to gain respect.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personalized care and attention I give to every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup is a playful puppy still learning the ropes or a senior dog needing extra love and patience, I’ve got the experience and heart to meet their unique needs. 🐶 Special Skills: Experienced in basic puppy training, crate acclimation, and potty routines Gentle, attentive care for senior dogs — including medication reminders, slow walks, and extra cuddles Comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels Can administer oral medications and special diets Daily updates and photos so you feel connected every step of the way! Your dog’s safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a long work trip, you can rest easy knowing your best friend is in caring, capable hands. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet — I’d love to get to know you and your furry family member! 🐕💛 Pet care is a natural and joyful part of my daily routine — not an add-on, but something I genuinely look forward to. I structure my day around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means early morning potty breaks, mid-day walks, or calm evening cuddle time. I plan my schedule to make sure each dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. I work from home (or have a flexible schedule), which allows me to give pets the time, patience, and presence they need — especially important for puppies who need structure or senior dogs who need a gentle pace. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do — it’s part of who I am. I prioritize their well-being as I would a family member’s, and I’m always tuned in to changes in behavior, mood, or energy that might need a little extra attention. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. 🐾 In My Home: I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of cozy spaces for naps, indoor play, and supervised outdoor time (if applicable). I only take a limited number of pets at a time to ensure each one gets personal attention. I follow your feeding and potty schedule, administer any needed meds, and send daily updates with photos so you know your pet is happy and relaxed. 🐾 In Your Home: I treat your home with the same respect and care I give to your pet. I keep things tidy, stick to your dog’s normal routine — walks, feeding, bedtime rituals — and make sure your pet feels safe in their familiar surroundings. I can also bring in mail, water plants, or do other light tasks while you're away. Every pet is different, so I always ask detailed questions before a booking to learn their habits, quirks, and what makes them feel safe and loved.
About: I have been pet sitting for many years. My clients are always super pleased with my care giving. I have two dogs in my home that are spoiled rotten. My love for animals began at a very young age. Caring for animals is my specialty. I am very flexible with dates and times. I will clean up after the pups and take care as if they were my own. I have worked at a kennel as the only employee caring and cleaning up after 100+ dogs so don't worry if you have a crazy pup or a dog that needs medication or special care, I am capable of any type of care needed. I have seen it all! My main goal is to gain trust with my clients and ensure clients to hire me again! My schedule is very flexible. I am currently a stay at home mom which allows me to watch and care for your pets around the clock. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly golden retriever pup. My house also allows enough space to separate my pup if there were to be any concerns. Also have children who respect and are caring towards all animals.

About: I have been taking care of animals full-time through another app for the past three years. I have dozens of reviews I can share from that app. I love animals. I used to have my own cat and dogs when I was younger. I've also lived with people who have had pets. Even some people who had up to four cats and four dogs at a time. However, I promised myself that I wouldn't get my own animal again until I have a house of my own. Until that time, I look forward to giving your dear pets all the attention they deserve. I have many great reviews on the TrustedHousesitters app that I am happy to share with you. I look forward to being able to give you peace of mind about your animals. I know from first-hand experience with watching other people's animals, that pets usually prefer to stay in their home environment while their owners are away. So they will miss you, but this is the next best thing. :) I make my own schedule. I am very flexible. Possibly able to take last-minute requests. Please feel free to let me know what works best for you. The more communication the better. If possible, I prefer to meet you and your pet in person beforehand. To iron out any details and also so your pet will have met me.
