“My very standoffish snobby cats actually made friends ..Ms Chloe makes vacation 💯 more relaxing knowing they are in good hands. She actually put together new toy that happened to show up while I was on vacation. So pleased I was able to find someone so caring to look after my "kids".”
“Deann is thorough and dedicated to taking care of my pets. They thrived under her care and they were happy when we got home. She took care of items like mail, litter, trash, feedings and petting the cats. You can’t go wrong with having her watch your pets, especially dogs.”
“Tisha was excellent - I chose her because of her awesome reviews and they were all correct! She was very attentive and great at giving updates. When I returned I found she’d even taken out the trash so I didn’t have to. My cat - and even plants! - were doing great when I returned. Highly recommend.”
About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including pregnant mamas and newborn pups—I bring more than just love to pet sitting. I’ve assisted in safe deliveries, cared for litters, and provided round-the-clock attention to dogs with special needs. I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and training, so their good habits stay strong even while you’re away. Whether it’s belly rubs, behavior reinforcement, or late-night check-ins, your pet will be cared for like they’re my own. I plan my day around the pets I care for. From morning walks to evening check-ins, their needs come first, and I always make sure to give them structure, love, and attention throughout the day. Whether pets are staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, their comfort and routine are my top priority. I adapt to their personality and needs—whether that means active play, extra snuggles, or sticking to a specific training or feeding schedule. I always aim to provide a calm, loving, and reliable environment they can feel secure in.
“Katharyn was amazing! She did drop-ins for two days for our dogs, Steve and Sadie, and took great care of them. She followed all instructions, sent sweet updates, and left us feeling totally at ease!”
“Juanita was amazing! She went above and beyond and all our dogs warmed up to her instantly. Will definitely be regular clients. The pictures she took of our three boys were super cute too and great for peace of mind when we are so far away.”
“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!”
“Rayne was amazing! She cared for my sister’s cats during an unusual situation and went above and beyond. She was flexible, responsive, and easy to work with, making a potentially stressful time much easier. Her communication was especially appreciated. After every visit, she sent a photo and update, so I always knew the cats were doing well and getting plenty of attention. It was clear she genuinely cared for them and treated them like her own. Finding someone you can trust with beloved pets is priceless, and Rayne exceeded expectations. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter.”
About: I've been around dogs since I was a child, and I see them as part of the family. I got my first dog when I was eleven, but our house grew and grew with multiple dogs, and I currently help care for my family's six dogs. In addition, my parents and I have fostered dogs together, which gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and backgrounds, including those who needed extra patience, structure, and reassurance while adjusting to new environments. I have years of experience dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors, including overnight stays, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving my full affection and attention. Through fostering, I learned how to read dog behavior, help dogs feel safe in unfamiliar situations, and learned to support basic routines and transitions. What sets me apart is how attentive I am to learning each pet's individual needs. I will always take the time to learn their routines, levels of energy, and their own personalities so they can feel safe, comfortable, and loved by me while their owners are away. I'm currently a part-time student, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be very present and attentive to the pets I'm caring for. I'm able to plan my days around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins, so your pets will receive consistent care throughout the day. My top priorities are always to create a safe, trusting environment and to ensure a comfortable atmosphere. I make sure all pets feel secure, calm, and loved. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules to maintain consistency as needed and possible. In a client's home, I treat the space with respect and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I'm very mindful of my surroundings during walks. I also take the time to get to know each pet's personality so I know how to respond appropriately to their needs and comfort levels. Communication is key, so I always provide regular updates, photos, and messages to give pet parents peace of mind. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where all pets feel comfortable and cared for, and each owner feels confident they've left their pets in good hands.
About: Hii! I’m Kayla; I’m a reliable & attentive pet sitter who genuinely loves animals. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable & cared for by following their routine & giving them plenty of attention. You can trust me to treat your pet like family & keep you updated while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, which means I have a very open and flexible schedule to give your pet the time & attention they deserve. I have one medium-sized pup to keep yours company. Though I don't have a yard, I take my pup around the block & to the park often.
About: I am a trust worthy selflessness responsible mother, so I supply love and attention to your fur babies with friendly service as we all deserve to have. When It's my time to be responsible for your babies, they are always on my mind and they are my first priority when I'm off work. I'm a Substitute Teacher for the Ingleside ISD. My free time is spent with family and art. Usual days are cleaning, cooking, running errands, and picking my children up from school. Unfortunately I no longer have pets in my home due to personal reasons. They were well loved and at liberty. I would spend some of my time with them going on cruises, getting pup cups, and playing with their toys.

About: I have been passionate about animals all my life as well as a dedicated pet parent. Currently sharing a home with my boy Pecos Bill a German shepherd/husky mix. I have gained experience in understanding animal behaviors, managing dietary needs, administering medication, and training through caring for my own pets throughout life. I love being around pets due to their playful spirits and heartwarming loyalty, finding joy and satisfaction in providing a loving environment and ensuring pets feel safe and loved. I am typically available during the day, I am a mom with school age kids so as long as I can work around their school I’m available! By prioritizing the pet's physical and emotional well-being, and by maintaining open communication with the pet owner is how I will provide a positive and safe experience for both pet and owner.

About: Growing up with neighbors who had 12 dogs and 7 cats I had the privilege to help walk, feed, bathe, and watch pets at a very young age! Learning how to care for animals so young has helped me learn to be responsible and loving to them all! I have 2 dogs of my own that I love with my whole heart! They’re both loving, sharp and eager to learn new things! After a year long training course with them I am happy to share what I learned and help others train their pups! As a stay at home mom to my toddler I am almost always available! The flexibility of my schedule and the love of animals I have is what I believe will make me the perfect candidate to help you with your furry babies! I have a fenced backyard allowing your pet the space they may require to run, play and take potty breaks! I have 2 very friendly dogs who love to meet new friends but can also kennel them during your pets stay if needed! If you only need walking I am happy to help walk or even run as far/long as necessary to keep your pup happy!

About: I will share plenty of QT with your pet/pets, walking, playing, grooming and other special considerations❤️ About this sitter: Hi, Caring for my own pets over the years dogs, cats, horses, birds, bunnies, and more I know and understand the worry and concern of leaving them for even a short time. I want to offer you complete peace of mind that you are leaving them safe, happy and loved with someone who truly cares. I would love to care for your furry ones if your not able or need care for them while your away. From walking to drop in services I would be happy to be a part of your fur babies life as your caretaker. I currently own 3 mini Schnauzers (Pandora, Gypsy and Sunshine) who are very precious to me. I also have had and cared for many animals though out my lifetime. I am a fur baby fanatic who is willing to give the same devotion I give my own to your kiddos while your away. I am also a certified Vet Assistant. Why I love dog sitting I love not only dogs but many different animals. My experience administering medication I have a background as a certified Vet Assistant and have administered meds before for a pet daycare facility in Houston. Therefore if the pet does not get to aggressive I do not mind this action at all. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have regarding this subject. I will be more then happy to try to accommodate your needs. A whole lot of lovins, playtime, walking food and snackies. Me and my 3 fur kids enjoy making new friends, sharing space and having fun. Note: Medium to large dogs especially if they are anxious will be crated while I am out of the house for drop-ins and errands. This is for the safety of your pets and mine. I am generally gone for less then an hour or two but occasionally time away can be up to 4 hrs. I prefer pets that are crate trained for they find crates safe and comfy opposed to punishment. I just like to have this noted to be fair and honest. I absolutely need a meet with the larger dogs to be sure we are a good fit. I am always available for the tiny-medium dogs 🐕 🙂
“Lillian is the BEST! We have used her many times for boarding and dog walking and she provides 10 out of 10 service. Ollie loves her and is super excited when he gets to see her. She also is great at accommodating late bookings. You will love her! Thank you Lillian”
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: Hello all! I’m Ebony and I would love to take care of your pet. I have taken care of my pets and others’ pets for over 30 years. I am adaptable and very reliable. I can handle an older pet or a young one. I have a very open schedule and with proper notice I can be available but I am also available for unexpected/last minute visits. I normally go on long walks and runs so I welcome active dogs. I am all about making your pet feel comfortable and safe when I am with them. I have a pet so I understand these furry ones are like our children and I will treat them with care
About: I have been in love with animals since I was a baby. I grew up in a dog loving household. I have always had pets as long as I can remember. Dogs, cats, turtles, mice, fish, hermit crabs. My goal is to one day have a goat and a pig as well. I worked in a pet store that wolf puppies for 3 years and my primary job there was to take care of the puppies and to teach the perspective new families to potty train their new babies and what to expect for their specific breeds. I have also helped my parents train all of their dogs and sit for them when on vacation. It’s a full house but I love it. I currently work but have time in the afternoons and weekends to walk or check on your fur babies and let them go outside and play or just stretch their legs out of the kennel, whatever the needs may be. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and play and a very friendly playful golden doodle that loves new friends. He gets along with all sizes and ages of dogs. My families dogs range from 3 lb yorkie to 90 lb golden doodle and a few in between. My baby is in his bedroom (kennel) when we are not home, one of my parents dogs does not require a kennel when we are not there so I do not require it as long as they are potty trained and do not chew.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and several years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every fur baby like my own. I’m comfortable adapting to the care your pet needs and the routine you prefer. I understand it can be stressful to be away from your babies, and some may need a little extra love. As a pet owner myself, I want you to feel confident, secure, and worry-free knowing your loved one is well cared for. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily prioritize pet care throughout my day. I’m able to plan my routine around your pet’s needs and provide consistent attention. I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. In my home, I provide a calm environment with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and crates available if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their routine, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel secure and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I provide more than basic pet sitting—I offer calm, attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I take the time to build trust with every animal, whether that means energetic playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to established feeding and walking schedules. I communicate clearly with owners so they always know their pet is safe, happy, and cared for. My goal is for pets to feel secure and loved in their own home, and for owners to have complete peace of mind while they’re away. I attend Texas A&M University Corpus Christi and get out of classes early so I can attend to your pets in the middle of the day when you are at your busiest. I respect the home and pace at which dogs like to walk. I also use whatever is provided to make sure the pet feels safe and at home.
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely understand how important pets are to their families because I’m a pet parent myself. I currently care for two dogs of my own—Apollo, a 4-year-old Siberian Husky, and Milo, a 3-year-old Shih Tzu—which has given me experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, patience, and attention. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a calm and relaxing environment, I will adapt to their needs and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I am dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping pet owners informed through regular updates and photos. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I strive to provide peace of mind by treating every pet as if they were my own. My experience with both a high-energy Husky and a small companion breed has taught me the importance of exercise, consistency, supervision, and positive interactions. Above all, I provide a safe, loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Right now, pet care fits into my schedule primarily on weekends. I am starting with weekend availability so I can dedicate my full attention and energy to each pet I care for without conflicting weekday commitments. This allows me to provide reliable walks, drop-ins, or overnight care while ensuring pets receive consistent attention and supervision. On weekends, I have the flexibility to plan my time around feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any specific routines each pet needs. I make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions closely so pets stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine while their owners are away. As I grow on Rover, I plan to gradually expand my availability into weekdays as well. My goal is to eventually offer more flexible scheduling while still maintaining the same level of care, communication, and dependability that I provide on weekends. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in either my home or a client’s home. I make sure to follow all instructions exactly as provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication needs, and any house rules to keep the pet’s environment consistent and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain a calm, clean, and secure environment. I ensure doors are properly closed and locked, pets are always supervised during visits, and I stay attentive to anything that could affect their safety or comfort. I focus on building trust with each pet by being patient, gentle, and allowing them to adjust at their own pace.

About: Hi! I’m Amber, and caring for animals is something I truly love, not just a side job. I have experience with many animals of all sizes and personalities, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs and routine. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or more shy and cuddly, I adjust my care to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m very attentive, reliable, and communicative and you’ll always get updates, photos, and peace of mind while your pet is with me. I will have time available before and after work for drop in visits. I have a pretty flexible schedule and will do my best to accommodate your requested times! I make sure every pet I care for feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment, whether that’s in my home or yours. I know being around a new person or in a new place can be stressful, so I take things slow and let your pet warm up to me at their own pace. I do my best to stick to your pet’s normal routine to keep things familiar and stress free. I also pay close attention to their behavior and needs so they always feel secure. My goal is to create a trusting, calm environment where your pet feels right at home.

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.

“We had a great experience with Stefani! We loved receiving frequent pictures while we were out of town and she had no hesitation ensuring our dog received her medication! Thank you Stefani, see you soon!”
“Monica was excellent. Our previous dog watcher moved so it was intimidating trying to find someone else. I feel like Monica was the best choice. She has a backyard and provided comfortable accommodations and space for Ginger. Her dog is also friendly! While we were away in Europe, she would send photos every day. It was comforting waking up to pictures of Ginger relaxed and happy. She was very communicative with us and caring with Ginger. I definitely recommend her to watch your furry loved one.”
“Gina is amazing! She took such good care of our Lucy girl and sent so many updates. She had so much fun with Gina and her family and her dogs. Every picture she sent I could swear she was smiling! We will definitely be booking with her again❤️”
“We are first-time pet owners and this is our first time to leave our five-month Odin to someone else. Karimar is so nice and patient. She replied to my message very quick and answered all my questions before we dropped off Odin. She sent me updates at least several times a day with photos. I already booked another appointment in two weeks with her!”
“Deann was amazing!! She sent lots of pictures and great updates! Abby was very well taken care of and loved. She got a lot of outside time and treated like family. When I picked her up, she smelt good and looked great. I only have good things to say about Deann. Abby will definitely see her again!!”
“Debbie is so amazing. This is the third time we have left Piper with her. I love how she sends updates with pictures and tells us about their day. We totally recommend her! So sweet. Thank you, Debbie!”
“Highly recommend Lauryn! She cared for our 9 month old pup while we were away for a long weekend and really gave us peace of mind. She offered a welcoming, clean home and Frankie loved her dogs. Frankie came home clean and relaxed! We also received lots of pictures and great communication throughout Frankie’s stay. Hope to book with Lauryn in the future!!”
“Bonnie is wonderful!! She cared for our dog Denver like her own, giving him all of the cuddles and walks that he loves! She was very easy to communicate with and was flexible with my pick up time when my flight was delayed. HIGHLY recommend!”
“If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and absolutely fantastic dog sitter, look no further! I recently left my 3 month old puppy with Jennifer S. and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear how much she truly cares for animals. She took the time to learn about specific needs, and routines, which put my mind at ease right away. Throughout the stay, she provided regular updates, including photos about what my puppy had been up to—walks, playtime, and all the cuddles! It’s obvious that my puppy was well cared for and I think she was not happy to leave her new friends. Jennifer S. treats her clients’ pets as if they were her own, which is so reassuring. If you need someone who’s trustworthy, experienced, and goes the extra mile, I highly recommend Jennifer S.”
“Haiku had a really good time staying with you all. Thanks for being great host at a busy time of the year. I would highly recommend your services. Thanks again for all you do.”

“Cindy and her family are so amazing! I was updated multiple times a day! My dog looked extremely happy in every photo Cindy sent to me! I felt she went above and beyond to make my sweet girl💕 comfortable! Would definitely recommend using Cindy as your dog sitter!”
“Megan was amazing! She watched our pups over Thanksgiving last minute & took great care of them. She kept me informed and sent plenty of pictures. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Tetiana was great! Vera loved meeting with her, her husband, and Wanda (and her dog brought out the puppy play in my 9-year old dog). We can tell she had a great time staying with them, was well cared for, and very responsive with pictures and communication. We hope to book another stay again soon!”
