“We took a trip to South Padre Island and stayed at a condo that wasn’t pet friendly, so we found Alexis. She was great with our Bo. She sent daily pics of Bo, good mornings and good nights. We felt so comfortable because from the moment we were matched with her it was constant communication. The dropping off and picking up was quick and smooth. This was the first time Bo was left with a total stranger and he did very good, so that says a lot about how she cares about our pets. Thank you again, Alexis 💕”

“10/10. Very much recommended. Iysis G took very good care of our babies. From picking them up, assisting them with their vet appointment up to the time they were finally dropped off. We will get her services again in the future. Thank you Iysis!”
“Amazing with high-energy dogs! Our dog has endless energy and can sometimes be a handful, but Grace handled him like an absolute pro. She gave him plenty of exercise. Super communicative and professional. Thank you so much!☺️ highly recommend booking with her!!”
“We loved having April watch our dogs! She went above and beyond to make sure our pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We got regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she treated our dogs like her own — lots of love, attention, and playtime! We highly recommend April and will definitely book with her again!”
“Sophia and Frank took excellent care of two kittens on short notice. They provided consistent updates and were extremely kind throughout the kitten's time there. Your pet would be in excellent hands with this lovely family!”
“10000000/10 I could not recommend Alina enough!! She was so good with my fur baby and he had the absolute best time with her! She updated me daily with photos and videos and it made me feel safe and extremely happy that Morty was having a blast with her and her family. Thank you so much, I will definitely be booking again for boarding and doggy day care ❤️😁”
“Aron was great!!!! My girl Mona was well taken care of. Aron sent various pictures and I loved that he walked her during her stay. Five stars and would definitely book with him again.”
“Jessica was a great and accommodating host as we were in a rush to drop our dogs off on way to the airport and kind enough to allow a late night pick up when our return flight got in late. Our dogs seemed like they were happy and we will use her again! 🐾”
“Martie was wonderful! We left our 8yo lab with her for a long weekend, and he was well loved and looked after. We will definitely use her services again next time we go away!”
“I was very nervous about leaving my 2 small rescue dogs who are very attached to me. But Alicia made me feel very confident with her kindness and love for her own animals. My dogs did fine, she sent me photos of them, and I was able to enjoy my trip away knowing they were in good hands!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Mister Pickles! Appreciate you sending all the photos as well. Such a relief to know he was being well taken care of while we were away.”
“Pauline & Andrew were absolutely amazing! My puppy Tuck was taking medication and they administered his meds perfectly on time. Sent update pics of my boy throughout the day really put my mind at ease, especially being out of town. So grateful for these two. Responded in a timely manner and are so very friendly! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We took a trip to South Padre Island and stayed at a condo that wasn’t pet friendly, so we found Alexis. She was great with our Bo. She sent daily pics of Bo, good mornings and good nights. We felt so comfortable because from the moment we were matched with her it was constant communication. The dropping off and picking up was quick and smooth. This was the first time Bo was left with a total stranger and he did very good, so that says a lot about how she cares about our pets. Thank you again, Alexis 💕”
About: Any breed any size is welcomed! Whether you’re looking for a safe place for your hairy child to stay while you’re out of town or you’re just looking to have a vacation from your fur baby, you’re always welcomed to board with me. Hello! My name is Frank Barcenas. I am 28 and live in an apartment located in Bayview, TX. I have 2 pets of my own 2 dogs that mean the world to me and are by my side every second of the day. Taking care of dogs is a passion more than anything. Interacting with different breeds and seeing their different personalities is very interesting to me. I have been experienced with caring for animals for 5+ years. I have taken care of animals ranging from reptiles all the way to donkeys and pigs. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters in the valley and have worked at multiple kennels aswell. I enjoy every second of caring for the animals making sure they’re in a safe and lovable environment as if they were at home. I am experienced in clipping nails, bathings, giving medication, giving shots, and general training. Boarding at my apartment, you can expect that your pups will be cared for and given lots of love and attention. One of the biggest problems dogs have are experiencing extreme anxiety when being separated from their normal routine. Having plenty of toys and multiple distractions at my apartment will ensure that your pet baby has a smooth and wonderful experience when boarding. When boarding with me you can expect multiple photos and videos of your pets daily while boarding. Work a 9-5 job. Pups would be inside during the hot hours of the day with my wife and will have small time outside during peak heat hours. In the afternoon when the heat is not bad they will be able to be outside 3+ hours I have a fenced yard. 24/7 supervision of the pups. Away from any high traffic roads. I have 2 pups who do well with other dogs
“Amazing host! Our 3 dogs including two puppies came back so happy and tired. They sent photos and were very responsive also. Just total A+ experience recommend to all”
“He was AMAZIMG, I had a couple of inconveniences, and he was able to accommodate my babies. Thank you so much for keeping me posted, sending me pictures, and taking great care of my dogs. They had a blast playing with your babies and getting some walks and sun!!! Best dog sitter ever!!!!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of dogs, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. My approach adapts to each dog's unique needs, ensuring they receive the appropriate care for their age and health. For senior dogs, I focus on comfort and health management, providing a tailored diet, and gentle exercise routines to keep them active without causing strain. My goal is always to create a loving and supportive environment where dogs of all ages can thrive. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, ensuring that my pets' needs are consistently met. Each day, I dedicate time to feeding, walking, and engaging in playtime to keep them active and happy. This routine not only keeps my pets healthy but also strengthens our bond, making it a rewarding and essential part of my life. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I tailor my approach to meet the specific needs of each animal while ensuring their environment is safe and comfortable. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly space with designated areas for sleeping, eating, and play, while sticking to a consistent routine that includes feeding, exercise, and regular interaction. In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their established routines to minimize any disruption for the pet, ensuring familiarity and comfort. I pay close attention to any special instructions, such as medication schedules, dietary restrictions, or specific behavioral needs, and I always provide updates to the pet owner for peace of mind. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both the pet and their owner, whether the care takes place in my home or theirs.
About: I have one dog myself. I love pets and will treat your fur babies like they are my own. I also have experience training 3 puppies in the past as well. I work from home, so I can attend to your fur babies most of the time throughout the day. I also enjoy going for walks on a daily basis. I have a fenced in yard with a lot of running space. I also have one dog who loves other pets, to keep them company.
