“Olivia took wonderful care of our pup while we were out of town. She was so communicative, she provided updates around feeding times, complete with pictures. She provided lots of opportunities for exercise and our pup made new friends with her dogs. Will definitely look to get again on our next trip.”
“We love Clarice! She takes extra good care of our Toby, who can be anxious at times. He runs into her house like he owns the place! I also love the regular walks she takes with him. We are so happy to have found her. Excellent sitter!”
“This was my first time using this app and as a normal pet owner, was worried about if this would be a good option and if I could trust her. SHE WAS AWESOME! Sent me daily photos and text, was always letting the dogs outside and my dog really enjoyed her stay. Definitely will be using Lulia again!”
“Anthony’s space is set up great for dogs and he was super responsive to every message! My dog can be a little wild but he handled his behavior and kept him feeling happy! :)”
“We left our dog Stanley with Edwin and his wonderful family for a 9-day stay, and they did a fantastic job! Edwin kept us updated with photos and messages, showing Stanley eating, getting brushed, going on walks, and settling in. Anytime I checked in, Edwin was quick to respond and always communicative. We had a great feeling about the stay after a meet-and-greet with Edwin and his family a week before our trip. From the moment we arrived, Edwin took the leash and was confidently in control of Stanley. We’ve done meet-and-greets before where the sitter gives your dog a few pats and focuses more on chatting with you. This was more like a test drive, where Edwin paid close attention to how Stanley handled the new environment. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they took the responsibility seriously and that Stanley would be well cared for while we were away. Stanley is pretty easy going... until it thunders. Then he becomes very anxious. Unfortunately, there were a few storms while we were away. We left medication to help, but it takes awhile to kick in and it sometimes only takes the edge off. If you have a dog like this, you feel pretty helpless during these storms. There is no magic fix. You make them as comfortable as possible, but the only way "out" is getting through the storm. Edwin was proactive with the medication, and along with his family, helped Stanley ride out those storms as well as we could have ourselves. We’re grateful to Edwin and his family for taking such great care of Stanley and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Denise provided a loving, comfortable environment for my pup. Very good about his care, communicating with me, and all around professionalism. Will happily have her sit for us again!”

About: Hi, I’m Kate! I actively foster rescue dogs through the San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter (SMRAS) and have previously fostered with BARC Animal Shelter in Houston. I have a special place in my heart for pitties and rescue dogs, but I love dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog wants to play fetch for hours, nap on the couch, follow me from room to room, or pretend they’ve never been fed a day in their life, I’m happy to adapt to their routine and needs. Fair warning: you may receive an unreasonable number of pet photos. P.S. 🤭 If your pet is a little outside the norm, feel free to ask! I’ve also cared for rabbits, horses, leopard geckos, and bearded dragons. My days already revolve around animals. Between fostering rescue dogs and pet sitting, your pet won’t be squeezed into my schedule—they’ll be a part of it, too. I care deeply about the pets in my care and work hard to earn both their trust and yours every step of the way, always.
About: I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve been around animals since I was 5 years old, growing up caring for ranch animals, dogs, cats, and even ferrets. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I live a very active lifestyle. I’m an avid runner and extremely into fitness, so staying consistent, disciplined, and energetic is already a huge part of who I am. Taking care of animals naturally goes hand in hand with that lifestyle because I genuinely enjoy being outdoors, going on walks, staying active, and keeping pets engaged and happy. I take animal safety and comfort very seriously both inside and outside of my home. I have a fully fenced patio area that provides pets with a secure outdoor space for fresh air, playtime, and exercise while staying safe at all times. I also have two dogs of my own who are very friendly, socialized, and used to being around other animals. However, I understand that every pet has different comfort levels and needs, so my dogs can always be safely crated or separated if necessary to ensure visiting pets feel comfortable and stress-free.
“Anthony took amazing care of my dog He is super friendly and sent us pics and updates as requested. The place was super clean with play area inside. Also nice and secure clean yard. Highly recommend!”

Thank you so so much Olivia!”

“Hey everyone, Denise is the pet sitter you want for your pet babies! My dog Daisy was so excited to go to her home each day.

From dogs & cats to birds to snakes, the list of animals I’ve had under my care goes on. Many of my pets have required medicine in their old age, so I am very comfortable administering medicine to an animal. I have dog-sat as well as house-sat on multiple occasions. One thing unique to me is my want for the animals to have as much freedom as possible. I work from home and decide my own schedule so I have a lot of flexibility in how I want to shape my day.

“Due to medical reasons, I'm unable to walk my highly energetic two-year-old Husky mix. Valerie has been coming three times a week to walk Artemis, and she's amazing! Artemis warmed up to her quickly and really looks forward to her visits now. She's always super excited to leave and worn out by the time they get back (at least as much as a Husky can be!). Valerie is always on time and highly communicative, so I never worry when Artemis is with her. I would recommend Valerie ten times over!”
“Brady has a true love for dogs. My boy just adores her. She did great with him and wasn’t the least bit phased by his breed and size. She was great with him!! Definitely, plan on booking with her again.”

About: My life has been defined by a deep connection to animals, from growing up in a multi-pet household of dogs and cats to exploring the intricate world of aquarium keeping. This lifelong passion eventually evolved into a professional focus; I am currently a graduate student in Psychology and am personally training my own service dog, Disco. My experience goes beyond basic pet sitting; I understand canine behavior, the importance of positive reinforcement, and the necessity of a calm, structured environment. Whether I’m managing a high-energy dog, a senior pet with a strict medication schedule, or even a delicate aquatic setup, I bring a researcher's attention to detail and a lifelong lover's heart to every home. I’ve spent years caring for the pets of friends and family, and I look forward to providing that same expert, reliable care for your companions. Pet care is the foundation of my daily life. As a service dog handler, I live and breathe animal behavior and routine. My day is built around structured walks, training reinforcement, and clear communication. While I balance my graduate studies and work, my school breaks are dedicated to providing high-quality, attentive care for your pets. Because I am used to the responsibility of a working dog, I bring that same level of discipline and reliability to your pet’s schedule, ensuring they feel secure and cared for in a low-stress, organized environment. I provide a calm, supervised environment where your pet’s safety is the top priority. I am accompanied by my service dog, Disco, who is expertly trained to be neutral and respectful of other animals' space. This often provides a wonderful, stabilizing social environment for the pets I watch. I am meticulous about feeding and exercise schedules, and I am particularly mindful of safety—for example, avoiding noon-day heat to protect paws and prevent overheating. Whether we are in my home or yours, I maintain a 'safety-first' mentality, ensuring all environments are secure and all interactions are positive.

“Andrew has been amazing! He’s so personable and reliable, and I have zero worries when he’s walking my dog. I’m definitely a very anxious dog mom, especially since my dog is 75 pounds and can pull hard on the leash, but Andrew is incredibly patient and handles him with no problem at all. Even when my dog decides to be a little stubborn and a jerk, Andrew is always calm, kind, and attentive. He truly puts me at ease and makes sure my dog is well taken care of. He’s also very flexible and accommodating, which I really appreciate. I’m so grateful to have found him!”

She took great care of our pup and sent lots of updates and pictures, which were so reassuring to us as we were out of the country and a little nervous about being so far from our pup. We highly recommend Shelby! Thank you, Shelby!”
About: Growing up, my family bred dogs and I lived to take care of puppies and dogs my whole life. We currently have 2 dogs at my family home: a high energy bird dog and a small feisty maltipoo. Complete opposites, but this has broadened my canine knowledge and how to care for different types of pets! I am a teacher on summer vacation right now. I'd enjoy a furry friend to take care of, but also to keep me moving and on my feet. I have no commitments this summer, so your pet would be my #1 priority! I have my own apartment, I have no roommates or pets, and my apartment has a fenced dog park. I offer services in your home, and in mine.
About: As a former pet owner myself, and as someone who wants to be a veterinarian, I promise your little ones will be in great hands and will be treated as if they were my own fur babies :) I am currently a full time college student whose day ends at 4 everyday from Monday through Thursday, but I can watch your pets all afternoon and on weekends! I have plenty of space in my apartment for your pets to roam around comfortably and my apartment has a dog park that I can take them too when we go out on walks around the block.
About: I have been a pet sitter since my senior year of high school! I have watched puppies all the way to elderly dogs! My goal with your fur babies is to provide them with the same level of love and comfort as if you were home. I have worked with dogs that are kennel trained or even those that are roamers. When I am booked I typically have stayed overnights that way the dogs have immediate access to in and out! Let me help you! I am currently a graduate student at TXST so my schedule can be pretty open! I work mainly between the hours of 10-4 as an assistant on the campus Monday through Thursday. Other than that I am super flexible! I always meet before hand to lay out your expectations and my expectations. From there I ask what you want me to do. Sometimes I will help clean while you’re gone, or make sure the pets diet is followed, but ultimately I want to provide you with the best care!

“This was my first time using this app and as a normal pet owner, was worried about if this would be a good option and if I could trust her. SHE WAS AWESOME! Sent me daily photos and text, was always letting the dogs outside and my dog really enjoyed her stay. Definitely will be using Lulia again!”
“Anthony’s space is set up great for dogs and he was super responsive to every message! My dog can be a little wild but he handled his behavior and kept him feeling happy! :)”
“We left our dog Stanley with Edwin and his wonderful family for a 9-day stay, and they did a fantastic job! Edwin kept us updated with photos and messages, showing Stanley eating, getting brushed, going on walks, and settling in. Anytime I checked in, Edwin was quick to respond and always communicative. We had a great feeling about the stay after a meet-and-greet with Edwin and his family a week before our trip. From the moment we arrived, Edwin took the leash and was confidently in control of Stanley. We’ve done meet-and-greets before where the sitter gives your dog a few pats and focuses more on chatting with you. This was more like a test drive, where Edwin paid close attention to how Stanley handled the new environment. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they took the responsibility seriously and that Stanley would be well cared for while we were away. Stanley is pretty easy going... until it thunders. Then he becomes very anxious. Unfortunately, there were a few storms while we were away. We left medication to help, but it takes awhile to kick in and it sometimes only takes the edge off. If you have a dog like this, you feel pretty helpless during these storms. There is no magic fix. You make them as comfortable as possible, but the only way "out" is getting through the storm. Edwin was proactive with the medication, and along with his family, helped Stanley ride out those storms as well as we could have ourselves. We’re grateful to Edwin and his family for taking such great care of Stanley and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Denise provided a loving, comfortable environment for my pup. Very good about his care, communicating with me, and all around professionalism. Will happily have her sit for us again!”
“Amazing! She took great care of my puppy and more! Great doggie sitter! Give me updates, videos and pictures of my puppy during boarding will use her again in the future to watch my puppy. Thank you so much 😊”
“Yan was a great host to Roan! She has a heart and home for dogs. Yan’s home and yard are well suited for pets to be active. She provided daily updates, photos, and videos. My Roan looked so relaxed and when I picked her up I could see she’d enjoyed staying with Yan!! We will be booking again!!”
“Maggie has really become a part of their family. She was so excited when she realized we were at their home. She loves Pearl, they’re besties. We know Maggie is in good hands and we don’t have to worry about her. We also get a lot of very good pictures and updates.”
“This was Gunner’s first sleepover with Rosy, and he had such a great time with her and her son! She was so friendly and communicative throughout, sending updates that made me feel completely at ease. Gunner clearly felt right at home.”

“Morgan is truly amazing! My dog was in heat and I was concerned that she might get pregnant but Morgan gave me her plan which sounded perfect, so I trusted her and don’t regret it at all. She sent me pictures and gave me updates, daily, and she answered all my questions right away. I highly recommend Morgan to anyone who wants someone who will love your pet like she does. In fact, I believe all her family loved my girl. Thank you, Morgan. ❤️”
“First time using rover and I’m so happy that we chose Sahara! Sent pics and made me feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her. My dog, Sandi, got so much attention and I would definitely book with Sahara again!!”

“This was Gunner’s second sleepover with Marcel and once again, he had an absolute blast! Marcel is incredibly communicative and thoughtful — he keeps me updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gives me total peace of mind. It’s clear he really cares. I’ll definitely be using him again down the road!”
“Thank you, Robyn & Desmond, for taking great care of our pups. We never worry about them while we have to be away. We appreciate you guys being a second home for them.”
“Maggs was great! My dog, Henry, stayed with Maggs for over a week. He had the best time! Maggs sent us multiple updates and pictures/videos everyday. Henry is a high energy golden retriever and she kept him exercised and entertained the whole time - even when it was muddy outside! Henry loved playing with her pups as well! We will definitely be booking with Maggs again! Five Star!”
