“I’m crying laughing they braided my dogs hair 😂😂 My dog has never been so comfortable staying somewhere. He’s an old guy so hearing that he’s playing and is energetic is so sweet! Would highly recommend!”

“Trinity was amazing! I can tell she really cared about our puppy. She worked with us very well when we had to do a last minute booking. She had great communication with us and remembered to give our puppy her medicine even though I forgot! Trinity also worked on teaching our puppy basic commands and potty training. We know our puppy, miss pickles, will definitely miss Trinity! We will be booking again in the future when needed 🫶”

“Barbara is absolutely exceptional. She took care of my pups like her own. Crush even got a play date with a couple of her dogs. She was very accommodating when my flight got in really late for me to come pickup Crush. And she sent lots of pictures while I was away. She’s the best. Hands down.”

“Gabby and Alejandro were easy to work with and I felt comfortable leaving my Sadie girl with them. Super sweet couple with love to give to our pet while OOT. Would book again Thank you!”

“Maria and her husband took great care of my puppy. They did some training and even introduced him to other dogs. Could ask for a better experience for him over a 10 day stay!”
“absolutely amazing! I have HIGH energy dogs and he handled them like a CHAMP. His rates are amazing. He sends videos of the dogs on walks and my dogs came home very happy! I will be using him again!”

“Thrilled with the care Chanisy provided for my girl Lou. She accepted her on very short notice, kept me well informed of how she was doing throughout the day and sent pictures of her engaging in play and outdoor time. Will definitely use her services again!”


“Winston absolutely loves Kristina. When I go to drip him off he darts to her door to see her. She takes the best care of him and sends me pictures/videos regularly so I can see my little guy. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with Winston.”
“Tisha was AMAZING. She constantly kept me updated with photos and videos of my baby while I was away and truly seemed to be engaged in his training and interests. She was also extremely flexible as I ran into some unexpected changes in my travel schedule. I would 1000% use her again and would recommend her to anyone who has a pet that needs that extra attention and LOVE.”

“Absolutely AMAZING!!! My baby had never been with out me for long especially over night bc of separation anxiety issues which will cause him to not eat or go potty and get very lethargic but he did all these things with her bc she made him feel right at home and comfortable!! he played etc… she sent me videos pics !!!! She is amazing and I trust her completely!!!!”

“Cara was fantastic with Ollie and he definitely received 5 star care/attention during the week-long stay. Cara was prompt when replying to our questions and sent updates regulary. Ollie came home tired from playing with Bear and extremely happy. This was his first time away from us since we adopted him from the SPCA in September. Ollie had a little anxiety the first day, but Cara quickly gave him the attention he needed to feel safe and calmed right down as if he'd been there 100 times. Couldn't be happier with choosing Cara.”

“Lauren and her family were amazing. She was easy to work with and quick to communicate. I knew my pup was loved and taken care of and had nothing to worry about. She sent daily pictures with updates of events and I could see in my pups eyes how happy she was, so mush so, that I was afraid she was not going to want to come home- haha. Thank you Lauren!!!”


“They were really nice and understanding. Their dogs are also really well trained when they say that they mean it. Will definitely book again with them in the future! 😊”

“Darleen has taken care of our kitties on several occasions. She is always willing to accommodate our times of needing her to include spur of the moment drop ins. She has had to trouble shoot our auto feeders and the litter robot and made sure they were back on line. Our kitties love her and she always plays with them and gives them attention.”

“Danielle is lovely and a true animal person She connected with my shy kitty so quickly and he was playing with her and engaging with her almost immediately. I highly recommend her. ? ?”


About: I didn’t grow up with Cats but the last two years I’ve been able to love two kitties of my own. They’re different than dogs. I love that they make you chase their love. It’s just funny to me.
“Hannah was an absolute rockstar cat sitter this past week. I’ve never had an overnight sitter and was unsure what to expect. Plus, my cat Christine can be a bit of a brat. Hannah was cool, calm, and collected when the brat decided she wanted to spend two days outside. Hannah made sure to give me updates each day and eventually Christine decided she was done with the heat and outside adventures. It was so nice to return home and not have to worry about the house or the cat. Hannah was also very patient with the fact that my house was being painted and there were painters outside almost every day. Thank you so much Hannah! You are amazing!”

About: My Experience • Experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments • Skilled with routines, schedules, and special instructions • Comfortable with basic meds, slow introductions, and senior pet support • Strong understanding of canine body language and behavior • Excellent communicator you’ll always know how your dog is doing My background in safety focused work means I naturally prioritize structure, awareness, and attention to detail. Your pet’s well being is always the top priority. As a current college student, I have a flexible class schedule that gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I build my coursework around my Rover commitments, which means dog walking and house sitting naturally fit into my routine. Most of my classes are spaced out during the day, allowing me to: • Stop by for regular walks • Provide consistent drop-in visits • Spend extended time with pets who need extra comfort • Stay overnight for house sitting without schedule conflicts I bring a calm, attentive, and detail oriented approach to every visit or stay. I follow all care instructions closely, maintain consistent routines, and stay alert to any changes in behavior, appetite, or energy. Whether I’m providing a quick walk or a full overnight stay, I’m always focused on creating a safe, stress free environment where your pet feels secure and understood.
About: My family has had animals of all kinds for many years, and a few of my own. My experience with different breeds is wide! My grandmother was a veterinary technician her whole career so nothing but the best care is acceptable! I am full time in Human Resources while also attending college part time, but I try my best to work around client needs! I have a fur baby of my own named Ollie that I rescued from the animal shelter and he is my whole world. We enjoy hikes on the weekends and cuddles on weeknights always. My goal is to make sure that whatever service you need for your furry family member is met and that you have peace of mind that their care is exemplary. I work a fairly flexible schedule, my full time job is a 9-5. I typically leave for lunch and come home on my breaks being that I live ten minutes from my job! I have college classes Monday and Wednesdays from 5:30-7:00. Pets are family after all! Your pets will be allowed on furniture if they please and be walked on a consistent basis! I’m all about the cuddles as well! I’m very flexible to what your individual pet needs, and their routine. My goal is to make their time away from their family as comforting and smooth as possible. Wether you’re on vacation, or away for work the goal is that your pet is in good hands so that both you and them do not have to stress!

“Evie was absolutely amazing with our cats! We have two cats, one very territorial and one who is an angel. Evie took the time to get to know both of them, and has been the first person outside my family that our bulldog of a cat has accepted into the house! I cannot recommend her enough. Evie is sweet, personable, kind, and patient. We are so lucky to have found her! Thanks, Evie!”

I've also had the wonderful opportunity to participate in my high school's doggie daycare, where we walked, played, and provided grooming services to dogs.

Currently I'm volunteering weekly at a wolfdog sanctuary where I clean enclosures and care for the wolfdogs that reside there! My availability should be accurately reflected on my calendar. Im usually available all times of day and any day of the week. I prefer at least 2 days notice for a booking. When caring for pets, I'll try to care for them in the same way they're used to when their owners are home. If there's any specifications for feeding, walking, etc. I'll follow it as close as I can.

About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life, which has given me a strong understanding of their needs and behaviors. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have also taken care of dogs for family members and friends. Through these experiences, I’ve worked with dogs of many different sizes, breeds, and ages. This has helped me become confident and comfortable handling a wide variety of personalities and care requirements. I am currently a college student, but with summer coming up I have plenty of free time to put my full attention into your dogs. I currently don’t have any pets so there won’t be any issues with encountering other pets. My home has plenty of space to play indoors. I have a fenced in back patio for small outdoor space. My apartment complex is dog friendly with lots of grass, walkways, and dog areas. While taking care of your pet I will be able to stay with them the whole time, and give them full attention while in my care.

About: I have always owned animals, especially dogs. I have experience with boarding dogs, house sitting, dog walking, taking care of cats and even reptiles. I love all animals and I love taking care of them. I know all dog breads and how their personalities can defer between each dog and breed, which helps me meet the fur babies needs. I am currently focusing on school. I’m home all day everyday unless I’m unavailable. I take a lot of pride in making sure every animal that comes into the house feels like one of our fur children. I want to help with the anxiety of being in a new place in the best way possible. I have a lot of experience with shelter dogs who have anxiety and fear problems. I will make sure your fur baby is safe and loved like one of my own. I have cats and animals in cages in the home and would only board in the house if the dog has a good temperament with other cats. I am accepting of all breads and sizes, however I am not accepting of discipline problems. For dog walking if dog is above 30 pounds they must walk without major pulling. (This is a case by case basis and puppies are an exception) Any questions? Call for details! have a runner for dogs to play outside safely. I also have a lot of walking areas and fields for safe exploring! Want to know more? Please ask!
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and have learned the responsibilities that come along with it, but also the joy these pets can bring! My neighbors, family and friends have relied on me to care for their pets when needed. I’ve worked at veterinarian clinics which have expanded my knowledge of small animal handling and care! Your pet's needs are greatly important to me! I currently have a very flexible schedule, so there is plenty of time for me to care for your fur babies! I am available to board or drop in for potty breaks and play time during the week! My pets have always been well behaved, while still spoiled and living their best life. Your pets will be treated as my own because they deserve it!
“Brenda took excellent care of Bea. They have a big backyard and stay with the dogs the whole time. So Bea got to hang out with a bunch of other small dogs and got to learn social cues from “the pack”.”

About: I have always had my own dogs, and have taken care of neighbors dogs since I was 12!! I’ve had so many experiences with all different breeds and sizes! I grew up with 2 cats as well! I love pets and treat all like my own. I currently do not have a job, so I have all the time in the world to make sure your pup/kitty feels safe and well taken care of! I am available everyday of the week, and have all the time to ensure your animal is well taken care of! We have 2 fenced in dog parks, and a beautiful trail to ensure your fur baby gets everything they need. I can also stay on a schedule with them if you prefer that!
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I was responsible for my first pet at 10 years old, of course my parents would give me a hand when necessary. However, for the most part I was responsible for making sure my cats were fed, hydrated, clean and loved. I got my first ever dog for my 16th birthday. This time, I was 100% responsible for my new puppy. I had the same responsibilities as when I owned my cat, but this time I would only receive help when I asked. I do have experience dog sitting, I watched my neighbors dog for about a week when I was 14. The neighbors allowed me to stay in their home, so I would spend most of my day with the dog. It was an amazing experience and they were very thankful. I am a student at SHSU, so I will have classes during the day. However, I am from the area, so I will be available during the holiday season (with some exceptions as needed). I usually only let my dog out as needed (when she asks to go) in. our fenced in back yard. I also do know how to care of a puppy who isn't potty trained, from raising my dog. I am not a super strict owner personally (I allow my dog on the bed and furniture), but I am able to enforce whatever rules you have for your pet. With cats, I had both an indoor-outdoor cat and indoor cat. I have experience with maintaining a litter box and monitoring a cat. Since cats are more independent, I usually let them do their thing. But, as a cat lover, I will always attempt to play with or pet a cat and usually I am successful. I love all animals, but I will say I have a special way with cats. I have not met a cat that I can't get to like me, yet. I also want to express that no matter what I will care for your animals as if they were my own.

“Ashley did doggy care with my little Winston and she was wonderful! She’s attentive and will work with your schedule. She sent lots of photos and her home is very dog friendly. Her doggie Ranger was very good with my dog, he gave him lots of kisses and played with him! I will definitely be using her services again ☺️”

About: I’m a huge dog lover and love having them around. I have watched, walked, fed and bathed dogs for past roommates, friends, family and neighbors since I was in middle school. I have experience with all sizes of dogs, grew up raising 100+ lb labs, cared for Great Danes/Great Pyrenees/German Shepherd/Boxers to Australian Shepherds/Chihuahuas/Mutts. I’ve also volunteered at multiple dog shelters. I work remotely so I’m home all day so I can give your pups attention constantly. I can watch dogs every day of the week and on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and also have extra steel blockers around the fence for any potential pups that dig. I do have one older dog that gets along with other dogs and is happy to lay around all day with them.
“The doggy Daycare sitting couldn’t have been improved upon on any way; she was perfect! She was totally responsive to all of my requests. She made me feel very comfortable when she was caring for my very important fella. All of my requests were fulfilled. She walked him and gave him multiple trips to the dog park. Her personality is energetic and delightful. I absolutely would recommend her anytime. Patricia”

About: As a pet owner, sitter, falconer, and former zoo keeper, a majority of my life revolves around animals. Their proper care and well being is of the utmost importance to me. I have been pet sitting just over ten years, while maintaining other jobs but am now pursuing this full time as a means to help support my growing family. In my free time I offer free snake relocation services; as well as reptile and falconry/raptor education events. I have helped whelp litters, bottle feed, tube feed, hand feed (birds). I’m experienced in medication administration, as well as abiding by special diet restrictions. I maintain a federal falconry license as well as a state sub-permit for wildlife rehab. I’ve cared for everything from birds to reptiles, exotic mammals, wildlife to house pets! There are few animals I’m uncomfortable with and for that reason my rates are adjustable for those with special circumstances! I’ve always felt I had a special bond with animals and I’d love to provide your pet with the same love, care and attention I would provide my own. Pet care is a daily part of my life! Fortunately, I livewoth my fiancee who’s just as passionate about animals and am able to leave my own animals with him when I’m working. Animals have been my whole life and I’m in no hurry to change that. I will always show animals the same love, attention, respect and care that I would show my own personal pets. Truthfully, I’ve never met an animal I didn’t love
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my 3 years of hands-on experience, my genuine love for animals, and my personalized approach to each pet’s unique needs. With a decade of expertise, I ensure that pets in my care feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. My reliability, attention to detail, and commitment to high-quality care make me the trusted choice for pet owners seeking peace of mind. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. I prioritize my pets' needs alongside my own, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, playtime, or grooming, I make time for each aspect of their care. I also incorporate regular check-ins, updates, and maintenance tasks like cleaning and administering medications as needed. My routine is flexible, allowing me to adapt to the specific needs of the pets in my care, while maintaining a consistent and reliable schedule. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I tailor my approach to ensure comfort, safety, and well-being. In my home, I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for play, rest, and daily routines. I maintain a clean and secure space, offer regular exercise, and give one-on-one attention to each pet, following any specific care instructions given by the owner. When caring for pets in a client's home, I ensure I respect their space while maintaining consistency in their pets' routine. I follow the same level of care as I would in my own home—ensuring pets are fed, exercised, and mentally stimulated. I also keep the home secure, maintaining a safe environment and sending regular updates to give owners peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to make pets feel as comfortable and loved as they would in their own home.
“we were glad to have the day care visit available to get Fawn used to being with other dogs. we felt Chanisy handled her great, and we’re glad for that. we dont like boarding her at the Vets office because they dont really play or have her get exercise which she needs. When Chanisy sent pictures and video of Fawn playing it made us very happy. We highly recommend Chanisy”

About: Be able to feel comfortable leaving your pets for a certain amount of time with my fiancé Faith and I whenever you need to go out. Every pet will be treated as if it were our own and will get all the attention it needs and deserves. We offer daily walks, accept special requests, and would love to take care of your companion as if they were our own. We have a two poodles, Australian Shepherd and a German Shepherd along with two cats and we absolutely love our pets and will adore yours as well. We also have a rabbit, gecko and snake so you can say we really are animal lovers. We have many years of personal experience and are looking forward to becoming your companions friend! You won't have to worry about your dogs or cats while you're away. We will treat them and love them like they are ours. I work night so I am home during the day and my fiancé works during the day so she watches the pets during the night. We have a fenced in yard so there is not need to worry about dogs trying to escape while in the backyard. Their first few times going to the restroom are supervised and alone so they can smell the backyard by themselves and not worry about the other dogs running around. After a few times going to the restroom or them being inside then we will allow one of our dogs to come out of their kennel to be introduced properly and let them socialize for about 30-45 minutes before trying to introduce the next pet. Our cats will usually end up going to their room when there is a new pet in the house and won't come out until its time to eat.
About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I have a goofy pitbull named Steel that is my pride and joy and loves being around other dogs. I work from home so I have plenty of flexibility to play with your pups, let them snore under my desk as I work or even go for a walk on my breaks. All sizes and breeds welcome! Plenty of experience with bully breeds. I am a twin mom so your dog must be comfortable with small children in the house that may throw a few toys over their playpen to share. I'm currently working from home M-F and have plenty of time to play with your pups! If I need to make a quick grocery store run it's right around the corner and usually takes 40min tops. Saturday mornings we usually take the kids to swim but are only gone for 3hrs. I have a fenced in yard. Baby gates and a crate if needed. Plenty of treats and water bowls. A safe quiet neighborhood for walks to get our steps in. I also love to take pictures so I'll be sure to keep you updated.

About: My name is Ashley Nguyen. I am currently in school working on my masters. I have one dog and a cat who are loving. I live with another person who also has a dog and cat but keep them in their room for no issues. I enjoy all kinds of breeds. No discrimination here. I am an easy going person with a fun loving spirit. I am also an understanding person who will keep your pet company. I will make sure your dog is fed and has had enough play time. I enjoy being outside so I would bring your pet if you allow it to the park or on the track. I am organized and will try to work with schedules. You can count on me.
About: I grew up in a household that regularly had 2-3 dogs around. We raised puppies but we would also rescue elderly dogs from the pound to give them a safe place to live out their last few years. When I was in college, I met my now-husband and his sweet golden doodle, Sam. We joined Rover several years back after we had to say goodbye to Sam. For the first time in either of our lives we found ourself dogless but not quite ready for another of our own. We now own another goldendoodle and because we are renting, we can’t keep other dogs at our house but I’m happy to offer drop ins. I currently stay home with my two kids, so we have a very flexible schedule. Because my husband is a teacher, we sometimes travel during the typical school holidays. I do everything I can to ensure you baby’s comfort and trust. This is why meet and greets are a MUST for me. I will not accept last minute bookings if it means we aren’t able to meet first. I want your pet to feel comfortable in my care and I want you to feel confident with me as well!

About: I've always loved dogs but oddly enough I've never had one of my own. I have however dog sitted for friends and neighbors before for some time and so I have good experience with taking care of dogs. I don't get frightened easily and will gladly take any advice if he/she has any special needs. The dog's size can range from a Toy Chihuahua to Great Dane. All in all I'm a dog lover in general and can't wait to watch your dog!

About: A little about me! I am a full time work from home mom. I currently chase after 2 dogs, chickens and a 2 year old that loves pets. My fur babies love to play outside and when it's warm come in and rest in the A/C. We have an XXL doggy door leading to an acre of shaded fenced yard. Our pups are very friendly and love to have guests over to play! I have a close eye for detail and can cater to any needs of the pet. Our home! We have a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with lots of room to play. All guest are free to roam the entire home; furniture and beds included. One spare room is just for the dogs; including a double bed. I have a large fenced in back yard with plenty of toys and room to run.There's always water available indoors and outside. I'm an experienced dog sitter and have catered to a wide variety of needs. I truly love for all animals. We lead a relaxing, playful and welcoming home where all breeds are loved. We can't wait to hang out with your 4 legged animal!
About: I don’t know what sets me apart from other sitters, what I do know is how interactive I am with animals. The love and attention I want to give out to animals is unique to me and will give your dog or cat a glow! There’s no doubt your animal will be treated with care and gentleness that my own babies get. It’s a hobbie, something I’m not so focused on as far as bills. It’s a passion, I love animals and I love helping people feel good about leaving their babies behind for whatever has their physical attention. I have two cats, they have an automatic litter box and I have a dog who gets daily walks for 15-30 mins each time depending on her honestly. The girls are good at eating a little at a time so I don’t need to have them on a food schedule at all.
About: I always love spending time and getting to meet new pets. I have pet sit for friends as long as 2 months in their time of need. I will truly love your dog or cat and we'll have so much fun! I have experience with senior dogs as I have one myself that requires a special diet and sometimes has seizures. I also have a puppy that requires play all the time! I am available everyday of the week! Daily, I can visit the house plenty of times to play, feed, and comfort your pets. They will not be alone for long and I'll provide lots of play time. I play outside in yards, give them pets, and clean up their accidents if necessary. Plenty of water and their food measurings are included! No pet, young or old, will be left behind.
About: I love all kinds of furry pets! I have vet assistant experience. I can give them baths and administer (oral, nasal, or injection) medications. I worked at an animal shelter, so I have experience with a wide range of breeds and ages, as well as, different levels of temperament. I also have two years experience with a small community pet sitting/ house sitting/ dog walking business I started in college station. Training option available. Walks a plenty and treats for free. They can enjoy play time with my dogs if you would like. (My dogs are kennel trained, so there is separation if needed) I would love to take them to the dog park or groomer for you. I will love them like my own. I would love to work for you!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a little kid! Growing up I loved any and every animal which still stays true today! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets since I was 15! I am currently a freshman in college at Sam and looking to earn some extra cash. I have a part time job currently but still plan to dedicate my time taking care of sweet animals! I am enrolled in the spring semester and currently live in a dorm so I am only available for drop ins, house sitting, or dog walking! I’d love to offer help to anyone who needs it!
About: I have two kind dogs, technically three if I count my boyfriend’s dog. I walk them and feed them regularly. I have taken perfect care of two seven week old chihuahua puppies. Im a sophomore in college and during the summer im around unless im at work but if Im at work and you text me, I will get back to you. I have no problem driving over late at night to walk the dog if you are on a date or they just need a bit of play time before its owners come back home. Anytime I see a dog, with anyone, even strangers unfortunately, I beg to pet them. So please text me at any time if you need help with your pups.

“I’m crying laughing they braided my dogs hair 😂😂 My dog has never been so comfortable staying somewhere. He’s an old guy so hearing that he’s playing and is energetic is so sweet! Would highly recommend!”

“Trinity was amazing! I can tell she really cared about our puppy. She worked with us very well when we had to do a last minute booking. She had great communication with us and remembered to give our puppy her medicine even though I forgot! Trinity also worked on teaching our puppy basic commands and potty training. We know our puppy, miss pickles, will definitely miss Trinity! We will be booking again in the future when needed 🫶”

“Maria and her husband took great care of my puppy. They did some training and even introduced him to other dogs. Could ask for a better experience for him over a 10 day stay!”
“absolutely amazing! I have HIGH energy dogs and he handled them like a CHAMP. His rates are amazing. He sends videos of the dogs on walks and my dogs came home very happy! I will be using him again!”

“Thrilled with the care Chanisy provided for my girl Lou. She accepted her on very short notice, kept me well informed of how she was doing throughout the day and sent pictures of her engaging in play and outdoor time. Will definitely use her services again!”


“Winston absolutely loves Kristina. When I go to drip him off he darts to her door to see her. She takes the best care of him and sends me pictures/videos regularly so I can see my little guy. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with Winston.”
“Tisha was AMAZING. She constantly kept me updated with photos and videos of my baby while I was away and truly seemed to be engaged in his training and interests. She was also extremely flexible as I ran into some unexpected changes in my travel schedule. I would 1000% use her again and would recommend her to anyone who has a pet that needs that extra attention and LOVE.”

“Absolutely AMAZING!!! My baby had never been with out me for long especially over night bc of separation anxiety issues which will cause him to not eat or go potty and get very lethargic but he did all these things with her bc she made him feel right at home and comfortable!! he played etc… she sent me videos pics !!!! She is amazing and I trust her completely!!!!”

“Cara was fantastic with Ollie and he definitely received 5 star care/attention during the week-long stay. Cara was prompt when replying to our questions and sent updates regulary. Ollie came home tired from playing with Bear and extremely happy. This was his first time away from us since we adopted him from the SPCA in September. Ollie had a little anxiety the first day, but Cara quickly gave him the attention he needed to feel safe and calmed right down as if he'd been there 100 times. Couldn't be happier with choosing Cara.”


“They were really nice and understanding. Their dogs are also really well trained when they say that they mean it. Will definitely book again with them in the future! 😊”

“Valentina was very quick to respond to messages and easy to book with. She sent pictures/updates of our dogs regularly and they seemed to have a good time at her house! Would recommend!”

“Rachel was great! The dogs hardly wanted to leave when I came to pick them up. I received so many pictures and updates throughout their stay. I definitely recommend Rachel!!”


“I couldn't be happier with the care Luna received! From the moment we connected, she was professional, kind, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated with constant feedback throughout Luna's stay, sent plenty of photos, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious Luna was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The communication was excellent, and I truly appreciated knowing how she was doing every step of the way. I would absolutely trust her to watch Luna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and loving to care for their pet. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my sweet girl! ❤️🐾”
