“Jackie and Jorge were amazing with our girl. We went on 8 day journey where she would not have been happy. Jackie let us bring her about a month before to see if they liked each other and if her pup would get along. Missy is a service dog so we were concerned about the separation. We give thanks that God sent us to them. Absolutely great care, lots of pictures and updates. Missy was taken care of so much better than any kennel would have. We will definitely contact when we need someone to care for her again! Thank you Jackie and Jorge”
“Luke and Leia had another great stay with Karen. Thank you for watching them for us. We appreciate all the pictures and walks…. and the great care you take while they are with you.”
“Our Jupiter had the best time with Lorena. She was SO wonderful and showed him so much love and gave him all the attention. He went for lots of walkies and got lots of snuggles. He’s a senior pup and she made me feel confident knowing all his special instructions were followed. She’s a gem, and sent so many pictures which made me very happy to see!! 10/10, thank you Lorena and your family for taking such good care of Jupiter ❤️”
“Another successful stay. Cecilia is such a great sitter for our elderly Brutus! Highly recommended! Love the videos, pictures and the safe environment provided for him.”
“Skylar did an amazing job watching our dogs and I felt comfortable leaving them in her care. She sent daily updates with pictures and was quick to reply at all times, I would for sure be booking with her again in the future.”
“I just got a new puppy and was so nervous to leave her for 5 days while I was away on a last minute work trip. Priscilla was fantastic!! I got daily photos without asking and Pearl was happy and excited to be there. Will definitely be rebooking! Thank you so much!”
“They were great with my fur babies and very patient with them. My dogs have separation anxiety and like to be near people all the time. They handled them with care, patience and understanding. Very nice couple, overall really good people.”
“Thomas and Shelly took such amazing care of Maddie while we were out of town! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was loved on, played with, and so well cared for the entire time. They went above and beyond making sure she got plenty of attention and fun, and it was obvious how much they genuinely cared about her. We came home to a happy girl, and that means everything. We are so grateful for them and would absolutely trust them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Ann did a great job watching my little guy for the weekend. He has some separation anxiety but she was very accommodating and caring with him. He got lots of walks and personal attention. Ann sent pictures of how he was doing and gave me plenty of updates. He seemed genuinely comfortable around her. I would highly recommend Ann!”
“What a treat for my fur baby! Last minute trip that came up and so I decided to try this service. Amber and family were just wonderful! Thank you do much!”
“Deanna was very communicative and great with Bandit. I know he’s happier staying with someone who is able to be home with him most of the day so this was a perfect fit. Her apartment has grass and shaded areas so I wasn’t worried about his outside time. I easily found shaded parking for my drop off and pick up too. I highly recommend and will be booking again.”
“Macy stayed with Sabrina for a week during the holidays. Sabrina sent daily pictures and check-ins which were wonderful. I’d definitely ask Sabrina to take care of Macy again :)”
“Kelly was great! Our pup walked in and felt right at home. She sent daily updates and pictures. I will definitely book with Kelly again and would highly recommend.”
“Rocio and Miwako were amazing! Great communication, lots of videos and photos. My dog looked so happy, got lots of walks, and lots of love. I always get nervous and sad to leave him but I wasnt worried at all while he was with Rocio and Miwako. Thank you so much!!”
“This past weekend, I left my dog Emmy with David and Jennifer for the second time, and I don't think I would consider leaving her with anyone else. They take amazing care of her and I constantly receive pictures throughout the day so I know exactly what she's up to and that she's safe and happy . I will definitely be using their dog boarding service again!”
“Mauricio and his family were amazing! He took our dogs on runs and has a great dog park right by his home and spent so much time out there with them. They came home exhausted and happy and very well cared for! Many, many thanks to Mauricio!!!”

About: I have a cat named Eevee she’s my bestie helping me get through college!🤭 I understand that some cats love cuddles whereas others just want to be alone. I take very serious any small behavior changes because that’s the way they tell us they’re not okay. I have experience giving medication to a cat and I also know how important it is to give it to them.
“I left for a last-minute trip with my husband and Claudia stopping in on my kitties was a huge blessing! I was a little disorganized, but Claudia was understanding and remained communicative throughout. I would highly reccomend her as a pet sitter. Thank you Claudia!”
“Alexandria was the perfect cat sitter! She requested a meet and greet prior to accepting booking, which really made me feel at ease about booking a new cat sitter. Even though one of my cats was very vocal towards her during her house visits, Alexandria was so friendly and communicative with us! We would absolutely book her again :)”
“Another great booking with William! He sent photos of my cat, Julius, everyday and kept me updated. I highly recommend William to take care of your pets!”
“Caryn did a great job watching my two kitties while we were away. She was flexible with the time of the visits and took great care of my kittens. They were not even upset that we left them! I'll most definitely book Caryn again.”
“Veronica was AMAZING, our sitter had to cancel last minute and she saved the day!! Our cat loved her and she sent lots of good photos and updates. Will definitely use her again!!”
“Georgia was incredible! She was very diligent in ensuring my baby girl would be taken care of and very communicative. I’ll be booking with her in the future for sure, and I’ll be recommending her to all my furbaby parents. Thank you so much Georgia!”
“Jennifer was awesome...she literally updated me not even 5mins I dropped Nala off. The daily updates reassured me that my baby is well taken cared off. They also got her a catnip toy as a gift..that was very sweet of them.”
About: Hi! I’m a true cat person who loves everything from playful kittens to independent kitties. I follow their lead—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or just a calm, respectful presence. I stick closely to routines (feeding, litter, meds if needed) and keep things low-stress so your cat feels safe at home. You’ll get regular updates and photos while you’re away!
“Karen was amazing with my kitties. She always sent pictures of the food, water, and clean box along with pictures of the kitties playing and cuddling. One of my cats needed to be in an e-collar, and every picture of him that she sent showed him wearing the e-collar. Her detailed visit summaries were correct and accurate descriptions of the kitties’ personalities, showing she actually spent time with them and kept them company during her visits. I am so grateful she took great care of them during the holiday season. Thank you Karen!”
“My first time using Rover. Reached out to Kristin and she responded right away. She came to meet my cat and I could tell right away she loves animals. Kristin is very sweet and friendly. She did everything great and communicated well. I highly recommend her. I will definitely use her again.”
“Marla took amazing care of our fur babies! What we loved the most was how she took time to play with them each visit and sent us the best pics to keep us updated. We will be using her again!”
“Faith took amazing care of my dogs while I was away! I had her pop in twice a day to let the dogs out and feed them, and she was punctual for every visit. The dogs were happy in every photo that she sent to me. Overall would definitely rebook with Faith when I go out of town again.”
“Vivian is wonderful! Very reliable and available. She has watched my cats multiple times and always does a great job! Always prompt and professional and I trust her to take great care of my fur babies when I’m away.”
“Kadence was amazing! I was nervous due to the length and time difference of my trip, but Kadence was so great! My cats are happy and relaxed, my apartment tidy, and she was responsive to any messages I sent. I am very happy with the level of care she showed my pets and my place 😊”
“Olivia was amazing! She came by to feed our senior cat who only eats wet food. We also have other cats that can make things tricky since they always want that food too, but she followed our instructions perfectly and handled it with no problem. It’s such a relief to have someone trustworthy come into our home and care for our pets. We’ll definitely be booking with Olivia again!”

“Lola had a wonderful day with Karen. She treated Lola just like family, giving her so much love, affection, and attention. Karen was able to send updates and pictures of Lola throughout the day. I know Karen will be my first go-to person to care for my little angel. I recommend Karen wholeheartedly! She’s wonderful!”

“I really appreciate Juan for being able to take my dog for a day of day care at the last possible minute. We had came in from out of town which added to my nerves about leaving him in someone's care but Juan sent me constant updates of Clue playing and enjoying himself while in his care. If we are ever in town again and need services, we will definitely reach out! Thanks again!!”

About: Hey yall! My name is Dorothy and I'm a Florida transplant enjoying my time exploring Texas! I'm a lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience caring for pets, including fostering animals in need. At home, I have a sweet cat named Cairo and an energetic puppy named Pharaoh, who loves making new friends. I treat every pet as if they're my own, providing lots of love, playtime, and attention. Whether your furry family member needs care, cuddles, or a playmate, I'm here to help and make them feel at home! I've decided to take pet sitting on as I'm saving up to go back to school this year! After losing my mom to cancer back in April 25, I've found myself reignited to go back to school and complete my degree as well as buy a car. I'd love to reach my goals in my favorite way, being surrounded by loving furry babies who I can pour attention and love into. Excited to work with you 💕🥰 Looking forward to meeting your pets! I work full time from home so I have plenty of time and attention to give to your sweet babies 🤍 They'll get plenty of walks and potty breaks! I make dog park runs twice a day as there is a park right next to my home. My community has a dog park, walking trail 6 mins away, and I have a fenced in porch area to hang out outside when the weather is nice! I don't have any kids and my home is kept clean so no chances of your babies eating something or getting hurt 🤍
About: I’ve been responsible for taking care of animals since I was a child living on my family ranch. I have 15 years of personal experience as a pet owner and caring for dogs of friends and family. I currently work from home full time and I am able to provide continuous care throughout the day and night. I am able to provide walks and potty breaks as frequently as needed. I am a very strong believer in using a leash at all times when there are other dogs and animals present, not only for their safety, but for the safety of the animal I am responsible for as well. I currently do not have other dogs or cats in my home that might create problems in the environment.
About: Hi! I’m Fernanda. I care for a maximum of two dogs per day to give each one my full attention and love. I spend 24 hours a day with them (yes, 24!) and take them to different parks so they can explore, sniff around, and have fun. Their walk schedule is pretty active: 5am, 10pm, 3pm, 7pm, and 11:30pm — because there's never a dull moment here! I also send two photos and one video daily, so you can feel at ease seeing how happy and comfortable your pup is. Is your dog shy or needs their own space? No problem! I can keep them separated from my own dogs. If they have trouble sleeping alone, I’ll stay close so they feel safe. They’re welcome on the couch, on the bed, and of course, they’ll receive all the love, patience, and cuddles they need to feel at home. Important: I speak only Spanish, but my husband speaks both Spanish and English — so if you need to communicate in English, we’ve got you covered! I provide 24/7 care for your dog, with daily walks to parks, regular updates, and lots of love and attention in a safe, homely environment. In my home, your dog will enjoy a safe, calm environment with plenty of space to play. I provide 24/7 supervision, daily walks, and constant updates.
“Highly recommend Norma as dog sitter! My two pups received the love, care and attention they needed. They absolutely loved her! Norma is very friendly, trustworthy and dependable. Will definitely book her again for my fur babies.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been around all kinds of breeds and personalities since I was young, so being with dogs feels natural to me. I genuinely love dog sitting and spending time getting to know each dog’s unique character, routines and quirks. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet cuddles, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. With a flexible schedule, I am available for dog sitting at any time. I am dedicated to ensuring your dog feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for whenever you are away. Whether you prefer in home pet sitting or care in my own home, I am able to accommodate both. I provide responsible, attentive care and treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring their routines, comfort, and happiness are always a priority.
“Love these guys and so do my puppies. Appreciate the regular communication and pictures during their stay. Our pups have stayed with Jennifer and David 3/4 times and will continue to do so!”

“Allison did amazing! She was so great walking Fenway and with excellent communication. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who needed some trustworthy pet care:)”
About: I took care of my dog, Luna, since the first day she was born because her mom didn’t want her. I’d wake up every 2 hours to make sure she ate while she was little because I didn’t want anything to happen to her. Now she’s 4 years old running around with her parents and siblings. I have a cat, she recently turned one. I take her everywhere with me, she loves car rides now. At home I have dogs who I’d always look forward going to play with after work. Pets have been a part of my life for a while now and I enjoy it. When it comes to dogs, puppies, I know that most of the time all they want to do is play and I’m okay with that. I think it’s an important part of their life to keep them healthy and happy.I know some pets don’t like being alone and it’s makes me sad to see pets waiting by the door for their owners to show up. So I look forward to being with them whether it’s playing with them or just keeping them company while you’re out working or running errands.
“Veronica did an excellent job walking our two pups while I was away. She did an excellent job communicating with us and ensured we always got a card after each walk.”
“Paige was amazing!!! She took such great care of my doggos! She has a great knack for knowing when they needed to warm up to her a little bit, but she quickly won them over. Paige was excellent at communicating and sending photos of the visits, and I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I am a student at UTSA. I have one cat (Mara) living with me currently. But I have always grown up with many pets of different ages and sizes. I am a loving and caring person especially for animals. I love play time with them, gives me a little exercise too haha. I also have a lot of free time outside of school so I can take good care of your baby all throughout the day. I have experience with giving pets medications, even bigger dogs, so long as they aren't aggressive. I also have experience with handling senior pets. Book me and you are guaranteed your pet will be well taken care of! 💕 and I’m a pro at silly pet pictures, so you’ll get plenty of those. I have school monday-thursday but only a few classes a day so I have time before, between, and after classes. Otherwise my availability is fully open! I am skilled in cleaning up after pets who have accidents. I also love taking walks and play time. Lots of cuddles will be provided too.
“Hannah did an amazing job taking care of Stevie while we were out of town for the weekend. She walked her around the neighborhood making sure to capture pictures and walking time accurately and swiftly! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and friendly helper!”
“We love Marla, she takes such good care of our pup and she is very accommodating to our changing schedule! It puts our minds at ease to know someone comes to visit Layla while we are at work and we know she looks forward to Marla’s visits :)”
“Ryan was fantastic! He walked my dog every day for two weeks over the holidays and was always on time with excellent communication. I loved getting photo updates after each walk, it gave me a lot of peace of mind while we were away. I’ll definitely be using him again next time we travel, and I highly recommend him.”
About: I’ve been caring for family and friends’ fur babies since I was in middle school, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with multiple dogs, including Pitbulls and Beagles, and I’m currently a proud pet parent to Chica, my mixed Husky, whom I’ve raised since she was 2 months old. She’s now 8 years old! I’ve also cared for three cats, raising them from kittens since 2021. Through my experience, I’ve become comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, personalities, and ages. I’m also experienced with administering medications to both dogs and cats when needed. Currently am working full time, 4 days a week. My current schedule gives me availability Friday nights through Monday evening. So I’m available for all your weekend plans ((: I’m able to care for you pets whichever way is best for you! I’m comfortable with pets being left out, crate trained and all in between. At home I leave my girl out so she loves to roam around and be nosy!
About: I’ve taken care of fur babies since I was 16 but I got my real experience with my own 9 years ago. I had a Cathahoula Leopard who was full of so much energy but had a skin disorder along with anxiety. She would have to take her yeast medication daily with a fresh shower once a week. Wednesday my second baby is the life of the party. She’s got all the energy and is always ready for the next move. She’s goes on about 3 walks a day. So far I currently finished school and working part time at night. I’m looking for day time work but my days are pretty open and flexible. I live in an apartment so my fur babies are always on a leash when it’s time to take them for a walk. I do also have crates in case Wednesday gets scared and needs a quiet place to retreat.
“Olivia is fantastic with our pups! Very easy to work with and was so sweet with our puppy who gets nervous with new people. Will certainly be using her in the future!”
“Cristina is super professional and prepared. She cares for our furry daughter like she is her own. She’s courteous and engaging. She communicates well and takes her time while on walks. I highly recommend her!”
“Thanks for always being available to help us out even on short notice! Will is great with our pup. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great Rover! All the best Will.”

We are so grateful for them and would absolutely trust them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Deanna was very communicative and great with Bandit. I know he’s happier staying with someone who is able to be home with him most of the day so this was a perfect fit. Her apartment has grass and shaded areas so I wasn’t worried about his outside time. I easily found shaded parking for my drop off and pick up too. I highly recommend and will be booking again.”

“This past weekend, I left my dog Emmy with David and Jennifer for the second time, and I don't think I would consider leaving her with anyone else.

I will definitely be using their dog boarding service again!”

“I have used this sitter several times over the last year, and they are always consistent, reliable, and amazing.Most recently, I had to make a very last-minute request for my dog, Dezna, and they were incredibly accommodating and flexible. They took absolute wonderful care of Dezna, providing regular updates and treating her like family. The service was truly excellent from start to finish. If you need a professional who goes above and beyond, this is the one! I will definitely keep booking them.”
“Dave did a great job of giving me updates and sending me photos of my dog during his stay. He was very accommodating and made sure my dog was comfortable and I would definitely keep Hux with him again.”

“Felicia took Marlee on a short notice and really helped us out,she sent us photos and updates throughout the stay with her and we really appreciated that. Marlee had a great time with her and her son! We definitely will be using her services again.”
“Grey and his partner were wonderful. My dog was well cared for and loved, and I already booked her next visit with them. My dog doesn't need special accommodations, but they were prepared for extra time, yard time (she loved that), sleep on furniture, etc. They also communicated well for meet/greet, drop off, pick up, and the times they were in the house - with pictures. My pup is heading back for my next out of town trip, because she liked staying there.”
“Thank you so much for welcoming the doggies into your home. They immediately felt safe and welcome. You should honestly be a photographer; the pics you sent were fantastic.”
“Hailey was able to make the necessary accommodations to care for our dog during the recent cold front. She and her family provided excellent care of our pet and sent us updates while we were out. We would definitely recommend her services!”

“Such a great experience. This was the longest trip and time away from our pet and she kept us in the loop and sent pictures and made it less stressful for our family. Thank you!!”
“Leo loved staying at Kyungah’s house while we were on vacation. Kyungah sent regular updates about him & pics of him playing and having a great time. Leo was treated like a member of her family and I would 100% recommend Kyungah as a dog sitter.”
“Blair did an amazing job at doggie sitting both of my mini dachshunds! She has two of her own, so it was so cute to receive video updates of them all playing together and having a great time. I really appreciated how informative she was about how my pups were doing and what type of activities they were up to. One of my dogs has separation anxiety so I was a little worried leaving him with someone new, but Blair reassured me he was doing good while in her care and I was so happy that he settled in with no problems! I will definitely be reaching out to her again for both of my dogs future needs and I will be recommending her to my friends 😊”
