“Breanna and Jonathan really did help me so much. I had a family emergency and had to fly all the way to New York. I booked same day and they worked around my needs. Kindness goes a long way and I appreciate them keeping me updated and taking care of luma. They are reliable thank you 🙏”
“I booked Miss April for boarding services for my fur baby Max. Miss April is an amazing lady, super friendly and she took such good care of my Max. April was very flexible with the drop off and pick up times, she communicated via text to give me a status on how Max was doing and she also sent pictures. I felt very comfortable with Max’s stay all the way around. I will definitely turn to April again if needed in the future. I highly recommend April to anyone searching for boarding services!”
“Our fur baby absolutely loved Ms. Mollie. Ms. Mollie was very communicative and sent us daily updates with lots of photos. We appreciated her attention to detail and how she made sure my our fur baby was comfortable and happy. Thank You Ms. Mollie.”
“Debe took great care of my Schnoodle, Barkley, who was totally spoiled by having her pups to play with and a doggy door, even! She was really good about sending updates, and I would definitely use her again.”
“Shannon was very accommodating with the hours I needed over the weekend. She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend and Luna came back happy and relaxed!! So thankful for her, will be using her again next time I need to go out of town.”
“Ms.Loretta and her family are top-notch! I am so happy she was available because she cared for my pups with utmost care and to the tee. Friendly, respectful and with much love & experience, she followed my every instruction and sent me several pics of my happy babies throughout their stay. I am normally a worry-wart but Ms. Loretta (and her hubby) left me feeling at ease with her kindness and attention to detail. I know she will be the first person I contact for future requests!”
“Courtney was amazing with my dog and cat! They stayed with her for 2 weeks and I received updates daily. They both came back home relaxed from their vacation with her!”
“Sydney took such great care of my two small dogs and my lab. They are a handful as they all have different personalities and she did awesome. She welcomed in to her home and gave them a big yard to play in and let them hang out with her and her family. I would definitely recommend Sydney to care for your pets. Great temperament with dogs!”
“Michael and Alice are great. Wally had a great time. They are very knowledgeable. Wally adapted real fast even though it was his first time out of the house. 5 stars!!!”
“I really appreciate all that Juliana has done in caring for my little guy. I can see he’s perfectly happy with her. That’s so important. It’s so hard leaving my little guy in the hands of someone else. So, it helps to know he’s in good hands.?”
“Natu is very sweet and has a loving personality. She also communicated effectively from time of booking to completion of services. Highly recommend! Thank for taking care of my baby!”
“We booked Stephanie while on a getaway and she was very responsive before and during the sitting. Very flexible and has all things our little one needed outside of food and his meds. Our dog didn’t want to take his meds with the snacks provided and Stephanie improvised to get him to take them and kept us up to date. Any questions she had - she asked in person or in the app. If we’re in the San Antonio area we’d definitely book with them again!”
“Cathy was wonderful from the meet up and throughout the stay. We were out of country and hated leaving our babies but she comforted us with lots of updates and pictures! Our dog and hers loved each other which was great! My old bulldog loved the couch and chair with lots of pillows and blankets. We did not have to worry about them while we were so far away which was great!”
“Karen is so Kind and lovly, she sent me pics and videos of my Furry Baby without asking her ..I really appreciates her help taking care of him last minute, her place is beautiful and peacefull I will comeback for sure whenever I needed.”
About: I have always had pets, specifically indoor dogs and cats. I also have 2 years experience as a kennel tech at a boarding/grooming facility where I worked with dogs of all sizes, cats, reptiles, rabbits and other small mammals. I am comfortable with any size dog and most temperaments. Each dog deserves care and attention, I am well aware that certain breeds have more difficult personality traits (and for good reason, too!) so just let me know what your dog needs and I will accommodate. Regarding dog walks: I am not currently booking for dog walks due to a torn ligament in my ankle. I am still capable of drop ins, boarding, etc. as I am healing, but walks are on hiatus for a few weeks! I am stable/sturdy - just in a boot. I work full time but am available after 5pm on weekdays. I do have a flexible schedule so if you need something, I may be able to accommodate if I can work from home! I have open availability on the weekends. As someone with kennel tech experience, I am very comfortable crating dogs and taking them for walks, playing as much as they want, and adjusting to their specific needs. I also have experience administering medication, both oral and injections.
“We absolutely love to use Megan when we have to go out of town. Our golden retriever has such a great time with her dogs and gets all the love he needs while we are away. Megan is sure to keep us updated with text/pictures over the whole span of his stay.”

About: I’ve cared for cats of all ages, personalities, and temperaments—from playful kittens to independent seniors. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, play with, administer basic care, and provide companionship while they’re away. I understand that every cat is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and boundaries so they feel comfortable and stress-free. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their space, I’ll ensure they receive the care, patience, and affection they deserve while you’re away.
“April was amazing! From the moment I met her she was so nice and energetic of taking care of my fur babies! She followed directions, was on time, was respectful, and took pictures of my babies while on vacation. She gave me a comfort during my time away that they were in good hands. Definetly recommend and will book again in the future 😊”
“Such a kind and professional sitter! Sent great pictures and updates throughout her time with my pets, made it easy and comfortable to be away from them for the first time. Overall went above and beyond for my boys and I am so thankful! Would definitely recommend and would absolutely book with her again ☺️”
“Cera is truly amazing. She met with me and my cat, Bish, before confirming the booking to ensure everyone was on the same page. I received regular text and pic updates throughout my trip away. She’s a vet assistant, which meant that she managed to give my cat his medicine—this is not an easy task with my cat! She did more than stop in and make sure Bish was fed. She spent a lot of time keeping him engaged (playing, working on his tricks, etc.) and happy. 20/10”
“Noel She's AMAZING, reliable, trustworthy very professional, she love's pets I really happy and lucky to have her taking care of my fur boy 😻 olive, Thank you! So much Noel! You're AWESOME 😻😻😻💗👍”
“Amanda is fantastic! She was communicative, on time and we could tell from the pictures that McCoy enjoyed his time with her. Thank you Amanda, we hope to book with you again!”
“My fur baby was in the best hands while I was out of town. He loved Laura! And she loved him! She gave me many updates with photos that put me at ease while I was away. Would love to have her sit when I need her again!”
“This being my first time using Rover, Diana was super helpful and made the whole experience stress free. She was very communicative and was willing to go the extra mile by cleaning up small messes without me asking or was willing to do non-related pet things like bringing in packages. Also, she makes sure to send daily photos which is super nice. All in all, 10/10 experience!”
“Michael was great. We had four cats, one which had to be kept separate and another with special needs, and he took care of them with no issues. I would definitely recommend him.”
“Joshua was great at watching our cat, Lola for 2.5 weeks. We were very nervous, because Lola had never been left with a stranger before, and doesn't have the best attitude sometimes 😉 At the meet and greet, Joshua had his dog Brewster, who was very sweet and calm, but Lola was hissing and swiping every chance she had. Joshua had never watched a cat before but he was confident everything would be fine- and it was. Lola seemed to get very comfortable with Joshua very quickly. He was even able to pick her up, which we weren't expecting. Now that Lola is home, she seems very calm and has adjusted very well. I think a big part of this is because of Joshua's patience and kindness with her. We will definitely go with Joshua again if needed. Thanks so much!”

I'm sure Midnight is looking forward to seeing Taylor again. I haven't had to use a cat sitter before but it's definitely worth the happy pet and the peace of mind Taylor brought.”

“Megan and her family take such good care of my little puppy, Penny. I was worried about leaving her with someone unfamiliar, but my pup was loved on, snuggled, and entertained all day long.”
“Pamela is the best! I am so glad I booked with her and I highly and strongly recommend her! My dog has anxiety, barks at everything she sees and hears and I did not think she would get along with any other animals. However, Pamela introduced her to another adorable, sweet furbaby and they were all like bffs!! Lol. I was so impressed and I couldn’t believe my dog can actually be around/near other dogs. It made my work trip stress-free not having to worry about her and I couldn’t be more thankful! She responded so quickly, cares about my furbaby like she was her own, spoiled her & gave her all the attention my needy baby wanted lol. Pamela also sent me updates, took cute pics/videos, and she was so sweet and accommodating! My dog can’t obviously talk lol but it seems like she loved every minute being there and had the best time. I almost think she did not want me to take her home lol. If only she was in the city I live, I would definitely be booking more days with her. I couldn’t thank her enough!!”

We will be taking walks in a lovely neighborhood and spend some time at the park. You may not want them to stay to long or they may not want to go home. I look forward to taking in your family members while you are out of town or taking care of business. Either way you can rest easy knowing your beloved animals are here with me and in a safe place, I will be more than happy to do so! Thank you for your time and hope I’m a good match for you and your fur babies. I currently have free time at my home so I would love to spend some time with a friendly pet. I am currently a stay at home mom. I like to give attention when attention is needed to pets. If they want to play I will play with them or if they need to go out to potty, I will take them out. Anything your pet needs I will be there.
About: I’ve been working in the veterinary field for 5 years now and have taken care of all sizes of kiddos from all ages. Each of them having unique personalities I have been a veterinary technician for almost 4 years. Due to a change in my life, i’ve decided to step down and focus of taking care of the fur babies that helped me learn so much about myself and why i’m so passionate about our four legged friends! I have five dogs that love to play and run around all day long. During the hot weather, outside time is monitored to ensure the safety of my fur babies.
About: I’m a retired dog/cat groomer with 12 years of experience. During those 12 years of grooming I specialized in creating a safe, comfortable and trusting environment for all pets, specifically anxious and senior ones. Being around animals my entire life both personally and professionally has made animal behavior second nature to me. I hope to meet your pups and/or kitties! Other services: I offer bathing, brushing and nails for dogs under 25lbs (at clients home). Brushing is only available for dogs who are not matted, moderate compaction from double coated dogs is okay. Prices for bathing, brushing and nails are based on size, coat condition and temperaments. I have an 8 year old Aussie/Heeler mix and my family has 2 dogs (german shepherd and a poodle mix), chickens and geese that we all chip in to take care of. I provide care based on the pets needs but always provide safety and comfort. In order to provide the best care in your home I will ask several questions to know what your pets preferences are

I have experience with puppies/kittens, elderly pets, and special needs animals, including diabetic and hearing/sight impaired animals. I am focused and pay attention to detail to ensure that your pet is taken care of the way they would if you were home. I work in office from 9am to 2pm, and am working from home the rest of the day, so I can be with your pet nearly 24/7 and ensure their full needs are met. Your pet will be cared for exactly the way you would if you were home! Instructions are meticulously followed and lots of love is given to ensure your fur baby is as comfortable and safe as possible.

Friendly, respectful and with much love & experience, she followed my every instruction and sent me several pics of my happy babies throughout their stay. I am normally a worry-wart but Ms. Loretta (and her hubby) left me feeling at ease with her kindness and attention to detail. I know she will be the first person I contact for future requests!”
“Sydney took such great care of my two small dogs and my lab. They are a handful as they all have different personalities and she did awesome. She welcomed in to her home and gave them a big yard to play in and let them hang out with her and her family. I would definitely recommend Sydney to care for your pets. Great temperament with dogs!”
“Michael and Alice are great. Wally had a great time. They are very knowledgeable. Wally adapted real fast even though it was his first time out of the house. 5 stars!!!”
“Natu is very sweet and has a loving personality. She also communicated effectively from time of booking to completion of services. Highly recommend! Thank for taking care of my baby!”
“Cathy was wonderful from the meet up and throughout the stay. We were out of country and hated leaving our babies but she comforted us with lots of updates and pictures! Our dog and hers loved each other which was great! My old bulldog loved the couch and chair with lots of pillows and blankets. We did not have to worry about them while we were so far away which was great!”
About: I have always had pets, specifically indoor dogs and cats. I also have 2 years experience as a kennel tech at a boarding/grooming facility where I worked with dogs of all sizes, cats, reptiles, rabbits and other small mammals. I am comfortable with any size dog and most temperaments. Each dog deserves care and attention, I am well aware that certain breeds have more difficult personality traits (and for good reason, too!) so just let me know what your dog needs and I will accommodate. Regarding dog walks: I am not currently booking for dog walks due to a torn ligament in my ankle. I am still capable of drop ins, boarding, etc. as I am healing, but walks are on hiatus for a few weeks! I am stable/sturdy - just in a boot. I work full time but am available after 5pm on weekdays. I do have a flexible schedule so if you need something, I may be able to accommodate if I can work from home! I have open availability on the weekends. As someone with kennel tech experience, I am very comfortable crating dogs and taking them for walks, playing as much as they want, and adjusting to their specific needs. I also have experience administering medication, both oral and injections.

“Josh took excellent care of our two pits, Zissou and Charlie. They both got along very well with Josh’s sweet pit, Brewster. Josh provided daily updates with pictures and responded very quickly any time we reached out to him. We will definitely be asking him to watch our doggies in the future.”

“I can't say enough good things about the care my dog received. During one of the hardest times in my life, when my brother passed, they stepped in last minute without hesitation and took amazing care of my little fur baby. They kept me updated the entire time. Knowing my dog was safe, loved, and well cared for gave me real peace of mind when I needed it most.”
“Anna was amazing! She helped me out on short notice and took great care of my Dog. Was accommodating and communicative. Made everything very easy and smooth. Felt like she has taken care of my dog for years!”
About: Hi there! I work from home and recently lost my soul dog to cancer. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and now I’d love to open my home and heart to your furry family members. Whether you’re out of town or working long hours, I’ll make sure your pup gets the love, attention, and playtime they deserve. I have a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor fun, and dogs are always welcome on the furniture because they’re family here! I also share my space with a friendly outdoor tortoise who loves soaking up the sun from our backyard. I’d be honored to care for your pet and make them feel right at home while you’re away. ❤️ I work from home, so pets fit perfectly into my day! We start with morning outdoor time, then lots of play breaks and cuddles throughout the day. I’m around for regular potty breaks, attention, and love your pets will feel right at home with me. In my home, pets are treated like family! They can relax on the furniture, play in the fenced yard, and get plenty of love and attention all day. When caring for pets in your home, I will try and follow your routine to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free.
